Chapter 547: The Secret Behind the Change of the Imperial Court
No one knew what the outcome of the battle in the Great Wheel Temple was that day, but Fang Xie calmed down after listening to Xiang Qingniu's story. He suddenly had a very strange feeling, which made him uncomfortable but thought it would be good. He couldn't put it out because no one could understand it. If all the great cultivators in the world who defy the heavens like King Ming died, wouldn't the world be better?
He got up and pulled up the velvet blanket on his body for Xiang Qingniu: "Tomorrow is the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and after the New Year, I will send someone to send you back to Qingle Mountain, Qingle Mountain is in the south of the Yangtze River by the sea, there is no war and chaos, you have a good rest for a while and don't go down the mountain again." In the chaos of the world, non-Jianghu guests can be influenced, the heroes of all parties gather, the sword light and sword shadow, the great cultivator can control the situation of a battle, but he can't control the general trend of the world. ”
Xiang Qingniu shook his head and said: "The world is in chaos, how can people in the rivers and lakes be able to hide?" I don't know how many people from the sect will feel that there is an opportunity to take advantage of this mess. Although the Taoist Sect is not as strong as the Buddha Sect, it has always been the leader of the Central Plains. When the troubled times came, the senior brother didn't know whether he was still in Qinlin Gol or went elsewhere, and the senior brother of the Great Wheel Temple must have done something else if he didn't show up, otherwise he would definitely go to the Great Snow Mountain. ”
"The senior brother doesn't know where to go, the second senior brother doesn't know where to go, Mo Ning's strength in Qingle Mountain is worse after all, and the status of the rivers and lakes has plummeted. Wudang Mountain Sanqingguan is obviously standing by the emperor's side, and Zhang Yiyang has already shown his attitude by following the emperor's side. At this time, other sects on the rivers and lakes will also find their own backers. Looking at the previous dynasties, when did the Kaijiang guests participate? ”
Fang Xie frowned slightly: "Don't participate!" ”
Xiang Qingniu pondered for a while and asked, "What are your plans?" ”
Fang Xie shook his head: "No matter what I plan, Qingle Mountain should not get involved." You do your Dao Venerable, those hundreds of lives on Qingle Mountain can't even make a splash in the war! ”
"No, you're wrong!"
Xiang Qingniu looked at Fang Xie and said seriously: "After this time, I suddenly realized a truth...... Why can Buddhism dominate in the West? It was because of the help of King Ming that there was a Mengyuan dynasty for hundreds of years, and because of the promotion of the Mengyuan Dynasty, Buddhism would cover the entire prairie faster. Fang Jie, haven't you ever thought about fighting the world yourself? If you have this plan, I am here to help you! ”
His face flushed a little and said, "There are far more powers on Qingle Mountain than you realize, although the history of Yiqi is far inferior to that of Dalun Temple, but if there are not some real great cultivators, how can they lead the rivers and lakes?" I'm here to help you, you're here to help me! When the second senior brother sent me down the mountain, he said that the Central Plains must not be without Daozun, I know what he means, don't you know what he means? ”
Fang Xie shook his head: "Prince Zhong may not mean that, and I don't have the strength to think about it now." ”
"What do you call non-points?"
Xiang Qingniu said excitedly: "You now have soldiers and generals in your hands, there is no shortage of food and grass and there is no lack of morale, and the rebellion in the Central Plains seems to be a competition between several big forces, but in fact, it is those who have not yet made a move to influence the pattern." No matter what Luo Yao's identity is, there are people in the Central Plains who don't want him to end up sitting on the dragon chair that symbolizes the supreme. Otherwise, why do you think Gao Kaitai suddenly reversed? Otherwise, why do you think Jiangnan Liuwei suddenly withdrew? ”
These words made Fang Jie's heart move.
Xiang Qingniu said: "There are some things, you still see too shallow. At the beginning, the Yang family raised troops to raise an incident, and the soldiers of the Great Zheng State were strong and strong, even if the emperor was stupid, but there was no shortage of famous generals in the imperial court, why did the Yang family army defeat the Zheng army like a broken bamboo and successfully gain a foothold in the Central Plains? ”
"Because in the Central Plains, there is a huge strength that has chosen the Yang family!"
Xiang Qingniu's tone was a little hurried, and his face became more and more flushed: "You haven't been in the Central Plains for a long time, and you don't know what the most powerful strength of the Central Plains is. It's not a sect, it's not a family, it's not a so-called royal family! It's an interest group, these people have dominated the Central Plains for more than ten years, and it can even be traced back to before Dazheng! ”
"What are you...... What do you mean? ”
Fang asked.
Xiang Qingniu sighed and said, "You look at the dispute too simply. ”
He tried his best to sit up straighter, looked into Fang Jie's eyes and said seriously: "Think about it, when the Great Zheng was founded, the previous Great Han Dynasty had been established for three hundred years, and it was known as two million people with armor, and the Quartet surrendered. The founding emperor of Zheng State was just one of the generals of the Eight Pillars of the Han State, and his strength was not outstanding, why was he able to break through the Quartet in the end, and finally become the emperor and turn his family into a country? ”
"Because he has people behind him, there is a strong force behind him. After Zheng Liguo, this force easily controlled the imperial power, and even the emperor could not make a decree to return to the imperial power. This strength is not a two-family, but a huge group. At the beginning, the Han state was very powerful, and the emperor's power was becoming more and more concentrated, and this powerful group found it more and more difficult to control the imperial court completely, because the mature Han imperial family was trying to take all the power back. So those people started a war and overthrew the Han ......"
"Hundreds of years later, the royal family of the Great Zheng Kingdom repeated what the royal family of the Han Kingdom had done. At the beginning, the Zheng royal family relied on the support of that powerful group to overthrow the Han State, but the people of the Zheng royal family also knew that sooner or later the emperor's due rights would be completely grasped, after hundreds of years of precipitation, the royal family thought that they could declare war on that interest group, but they still underestimated the strength of the interest group, and finally broke the country. ”
"Then, this interest group chose the Yang family."
Xiang Qingniu let out a long sigh of relief and asked, "Do you know why they chose the Yang family?" ”
"Why?"
Fang asked.
"Because at that time, Yang Jian had an identity, but he was not high, and he was just one of the generals of the imperial court. has a certain influence, but it is a joke to rely on his own strength to turn his family into a country. Yang Jian is not stupid, the Yang family was only a second-rate family at that time, weak and easy to control! That's why that interest group chose the Yang family, because the Yang family was weak, and they thought they could easily control the future royal family. ”
"But what they didn't expect is that the people of the Yang family have produced Shengming monarchs for generations, and there is not a single faint monarch, and one generation is working harder than the generation to strengthen the control of the imperial family."
Fang Jie's face changed: "So, more than 100 years since the Yang family was founded, that interest group can't stand it anymore?" ”
"Yes!"
Xiang Qingniu sighed: "No one knows who and which families are included in that interest group, but the people of these families don't care about the war, because their strength is strong enough to influence any war, and the direction of the war is completely under their control." As for the disasters brought about by the war, they did not care about the hardships faced by the common people, because they were the biggest beneficiaries of each change of dynasty. ”
"They won't be emperors themselves, because they find that controlling the emperor is far more beneficial than being emperor themselves. The emperor is just their plaything. ”
"So ......"
Xiang Qingniu looked at Fang Xie and said word by word: "Do you think that a person as powerful as Luo Yao will become the new emperor of the Central Plains?" ”
Fang Jie's heart churned, and he felt a little dry in his throat.
Xiang Qingniu said: "Such interest groups have existed since ancient times, and they have not been combined in recent years. Those people have always controlled the Central Plains, and they do whatever they want. And Luo Yao is too powerful, once Luo Yao finally succeeds, this interest group will not be able to control Luo Yao at all, how can they watch Luo Yao gradually move towards victory? Therefore, Gao Kaitai, a person whom the Great Sui Emperor used to trust very much, suddenly raised troops in Hedong Road. ”
"Therefore, the general of the six guards in Jiangnan will suddenly withdraw his troops, which seems to be to open up the channel for Luo Yao to open up Jiangnan, but in fact, an integration has been completed, and I am afraid that it will not be long before a puppet of a new interest group will appear and participate in the struggle for hegemony. Gao Kaitai and the new people were all pushed out by interest groups in order to block Luo Yao, and you should know that the first people to be pushed out ...... It's all cannon fodder. ”
"In fact, that interest group planned to destroy the Yang family's world a long time ago."
Xiang Qingniu said seriously: "When we were learning art in the mountains, do you know why my master would accept the second senior brother as a disciple? ”
……
……
Xiang Qingniu's words, sentence by sentence, burst out in Fang Jie's heart like thunder. He never thought of this layer, let alone that it was not the royal family that really ruled the Central Plains at all, but an interest group hidden in the shadows, turning its hands into clouds and rain.
It was a group of people who were united and powerful enough to destroy any dynasty at will, profiting from the change of dynasties as a game. Every time there was a change of dynasty, they were able to derive great benefits from it. They control the government, and they are the ones who are really in power.
When the emperor's family has matured and strengthened and threatened them, they will not hesitate to provoke a war in the Central Plains, and then choose a new puppet to become the emperor and continue to be at their mercy.
And Xiang Qingniu just said why Wan Xingchen accepted Yang Qi as a disciple in the first place, and why the founding emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty had special respect for Wan Xingchen in the gift of his juniors, so he also had a deeper understanding. Yang Jian is a masterpiece who is not born in the world, and he saw through the purpose of that interest group early on. So from the very beginning, he was arranging the future for the Yang family. He asked Wan Xingchen to protect the Yang family, because he was afraid that the people of that interest group would attack the Yang family too early.
When Wan Xingchen was old, he accepted Yang Qi as a disciple, just to let this protection continue. There is such a person who cultivates against the sky standing by the side of the Yang family, and it is not easy for people from interest groups to start.
But the Yang family was too anxious and too strong.
After the Yang family was founded, they wanted to get rid of the shackles and control of that interest group, and every emperor kept making the Yang family stronger, which touched the interests of those people. But because Wan Xingchen is such an anti-heaven existence, they still watched and did not do it immediately. They may not be able to get rid of Wan Xingchen, but the loss will be huge.
In the generation of Emperor Yang Yi of the Great Sui, they finally couldn't sit still.
Because they found that this Yang Yi scared them more than any previous generation of Great Sui Emperors. In the more than ten years since Yang Yi ascended the throne, he quietly got rid of six or seven families, and sent troops to slaughter the three families represented by the Qiu family in Jiangdu, which has actually sounded the horn of war. So, even if Wan Xingchen is not dead, those people know that if they don't do it, the people of the Yang family will really take all the rights back.
Li Yuanshan became the first person chosen by those people.
Then there is Gao Kaitai, and then there will be people on the Jiangnan side who will be pushed out.
In fact, those people are fueling everything.
However, Luo Yao was definitely not in the choice of those people. Because Luo Yao was too powerful, the Yang family needed a Wan Xingchen to protect them, which had already made that interest group feel scared. Luo Yao himself is the next Wan Xingchen, how could they tolerate the appearance of such a royal family?
Once such a powerful imperial family takes control of the Central Plains, this interest group will eventually collapse.
Xiang Qingniu looked at Fang Xie and said in a heavy tone: "The people you see now, whether it is Li Yuanshan or Gao Kaitai, are just the first people to be pushed out to disturb the overall situation. As in the stories of the change of court over the centuries, in the end there will be a not-so-powerful family that will become the new ruler. And because there were people like Gao Kaitai before, the Central Plains had been completely messed up, and the families that did not belong to that interest group had suffered a devastating blow, so in the end, the interest group could easily choose a small family they could control to come to the stage and sit on that chair......"
Fang Xie took a deep breath: "These are all what the old man said to you?" ”
Xiang Qingniu nodded: "That's right, Shizun once said that he can't die too early, and he must try his best to live a few more years, because as long as he dies, the Central Plains will be in chaos." ”
Fang Xie suddenly thought that when he left Chang'an, Wan Xingchen had told him that he wanted to go out for a walk again in his lifetime.
Originally...... The place where Wan Xingchen is going to walk is not the Great Snow Mountain!
