"This is not a new talent, but an old minister of His Majesty."

Shangguan Wan'er playfully stuck out her tongue and said, "Your Majesty, do you think, in today's Great Zhou, whose literary name is comparable to Chen Ziang?" Whose two strokes are unsightly and always have to be ghostwritten? ”

Flutter~~

Shangguan Wan'er's last sentence finally made Wu Zetian laugh out loud, and said: "There are still a few whose literary names can be compared with Chen Ziang, such as Wan'er, you are not bad." However, if you want to say that the words are unsightly, there is no semicolon except Cui Erlang. ”

After a pause, Her Majesty sighed again: "Although I tried to overestimate Cui Erlang, I didn't expect to underestimate him. can write this article, Cui Geng can really be called the first in my big week...... Oh, by the way, why ......"

Wu Zetian originally wanted to ask why Cui Geng didn't come up with this article earlier. However, she immediately woke up to the fact that the treatment of Xu Yuanqing in these two articles was not the same, and Cui Geng was undoubtedly inclined to the first one. People are always selfish, very normal, understandable.

Thinking of this, Her Majesty the Empress changed her words and said: "Spread my will, and publish this article in full in the "Great Zhou Royal Daily" and "Shendu Times". I'm going to see how the people react this time. ”

……

……

As soon as Cui Geng's article was published, public opinion once again shook the sky. In the teahouse and wine shop, the original inverted Cui faction, that is, the person who agreed with Chen Ziang's disposal plan, seemed to be fanned with a loud face.

No way, Cui Geng's article is not only very reasonable, but also from the pen of Liu Zongyuan, the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, with brilliant writing and eloquence.

According to the normal development of history, it should be that after the Xu Yuanqing case, Chen Ziang wrote an article "Revenge Petition" and put forward opinions on how to deal with it.

However, this case, seventy years later, was overturned by Liu Zongyuan. He wrote an eloquent essay "Refuting the Revenge Proposal", which has also been passed down through the ages, and even has a reputation far above Chen Ziang.

In this article, Liu Zongyuan thinks that Chen Ziang is a fool. Why kill people first and then commend them? The same thing, the award is awarded, the punishment is punished, and the commendation and punishment are recognized and punished at the same time, isn't this a spiritual split~?

As for Xu Yuanqing's case, it is necessary to distinguish between Xu Yuanqing and his father Xu Shuang, who were killed by Zhao Shiwen because of what. If Xu Shuang deserves it, then there is nothing to say, Xu Yuanqing will be punished. If Xu Shuang didn't die, Xu Yuanqing should be acquitted.

Just as there is a cloud in "The Legend of the Ram in the Spring and Autumn Period": "The father is not punished, but the son can take revenge." The father is punished, the son takes revenge, this way of pushing the blade, revenge does not eliminate harm. ”

This time it is not a balance of reason, but a combination of reason and reason, which is a step further than Chen Ziang's assertion!

Of course, people think that Liu Zongyuan's opinion is higher than that of Chen Ziang.

Of course, Cui Geng didn't expect that Chen Ziang would be instigated to write "Revenge Proposal", so the words and sentences of "Refutation of Revenge" were slightly modified.

But only in this way does it seem commendable, and it is a bit of a taste of anticipating the enemy's aircraft.

Her Majesty the Empress soon decreed that Xu Yuanqing should be temporarily imprisoned, and that there would be a division to take care of his life, and he must not be wronged. After finding out the truth about Xu Shuang's death, a decision will be made.

As for the candidates who went to Xiafeng County to find out the truth...... Jiannan Province visited Cui Geng to urge Erlang!

By now, Wu Zetian's own meaning has been revealed.

……

………

The palace, the Yingxian Pavilion, the Zhang brothers sat opposite each other.

Zhang Yizhi frowned, sighed, and said, "Hey, miserable! Our brothers have really lost too badly this time. Count the days, before our means have been used, Cui Geng's article has already been written. It's just that we haven't pouted our butts yet, and Cui Geng knows what kind of shit we want to pull, how can we fight in the future? ”

Zhang Changzong also said hatefully: "I thought that Zheng Yu was good, but now it seems that he can deal with others, but he can deal with Cui Geng, just like Zhou Yu met Zhuge Liang, lost his wife and broke his army."

Zhang Yizhi was puzzled: "But Zheng Su can't do it, and the rest of our subordinates can't do it." What should we do in the future? ”

Zhang Changzong pondered for a long time and said with a wry smile: "If you really can't do it, you can only admit defeat."

"What? Recognize...... Admit defeat? ”

Zhang Changzong nodded and said, "Yes, it's just admitting defeat." Gorou, you think, now that the two of us are protected by an old lady, Cui Geng will never take the initiative to provoke us, right? As for the old lady after a hundred years...... If the emperor continues to take care of us, what can Cui Erlang do with us? ”

When Zhang Yizhi heard this, his face was cloudy, and he finally agreed: "Yes, flowers are not good for a hundred days, and people are not red for a thousand days." The situation is stronger than people, and it is time for us to leave a way back for ourselves. ”

The two brothers agreed and acted according to the plan. Every time I see the crown prince Li Xian, he is respectful and reasonable, and even gives valuable gifts every festival. is also very kind to the officials of Li Xian's lineage. The wind comments in the government and the opposition have gradually become better.

However, if you are not afraid of no good things, you are afraid that there are no good people, Wu Sansi saw this situation, but he was anxious.

Erzhang and the crown prince Li Xian live in harmony, isn't Li Xian's succession to the throne stable? Then what else is he thinking about Wu Sansi?

So, I hurriedly found five henchmen under my door to come to the secret discussion. These five henchmen are: Zhou Lizhen, Ran Zuyong, Li Yi, Guanglu Cheng Song Zhixun, and Yao Shaozhi, who is known as "Three Thoughts and Five Dogs".

The six of them discussed for a long time, and in the end, Song Zhixun proposed a feasible strategy.

Song Zhixun is Song Zhiwen's younger brother, and Song Zhiwen's viciousness and shamelessness are in the same vein, and said: "Listen to the brother of the lower official, the reason why the Zhang brothers tried their best to please Li Xian was because they were afraid of Cui Geng. Let's think of a way to make them not afraid of Cui Geng? ”

Zhou Lizhen said disappreciatively: "Now that the Zhang brothers have His Majesty as their backers, they don't want to continue to be enemies of Cui Geng." Is it possible that we can still find a bigger backer for Erzhang, a bigger backer than Your Majesty? ”

"Hehe, I was really told by Zhou Yushi." Song Zhiwen pointed his finger and said, "Of course, there are backers who are bigger than Your Majesty, for example...... Oh, my God! ”

……

……

A few days later, in the Zhang brothers' mansion, there was an old Taoist who named himself Xuan Xuanzi uninvited.

After he saw Zhang Changzong, his first sentence was amazing: "The poor Taoist temple has dragon energy, and he came to meet the true dragon emperor!" Oh, you have a dragon face and a strange bone, isn't it the person you are looking for? My emperor is above, and he is worshiped by poverty! ”

Zhang Changzong is a child of a family, well-educated, and his own intelligence is also Chinese, of course, he was not so easily fooled, and immediately ordered someone to drive out this old way.

But this Xuan Xuanzi seems to really have mana, and when he saw Zhang Changzong driving people, he smiled slightly, and he was covered in smoke. When the smoke cleared, the people were gone.

The next day, he came again, still saying that Zhang Changzong had the appearance of a son of heaven, and he came to visit. As soon as Zhang Changzong became angry, he was again in smoke and disappeared without a trace.

In this way, for seven consecutive days, Zhang Changzong's heart also grew grass, and he secretly wondered, could it be that I really have the destiny of the Son of Heaven to attract strange people to vote?

That's really possible, I think when I first won the favor of the old lady, I really felt that the destiny was in my body, and I intended to fight for the position of the prince. It was only later that he found that Li Xianren's expectations were too high, so he gradually calmed down his thoughts. Now that I think about it, I'm afraid that the time has not yet come, not that there is no destiny!

So, when Xuan Xuanzi came again, Zhang Changzong treated him as a guest and was courteous.

Xuan Xuanzi was really worthy of Zhang Changzong's hospitality to him, and immediately performed a few illusions, which shocked Zhang Changzong.

However, Zhang Changzong was still a little unstable, and said: "Even if Zhang has a destiny, but Cui Geng, the henchman of the current crown prince Li Xian, is too difficult, and I don't know how to teach me?"

Xuan Xuanzi swept the dust lightly, followed by good temptation, and said: "At the beginning, Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, fought for the world, and the overlord of Chu was invincible in the world, but in the end, the world was still owned by Liu Bang. Your Majesty, if you think carefully about Liu Bang's experience of winning the world, it is not difficult to think of a way to deal with Cui Geng. ”

At that time, Liu Bang tried his best to confront the overlord of Chu head-on, and on the other hand, he divided his troops with Han Xin and Peng Yue to attack Xiang Yu's allies and rear...... In the end, Liu Bang's soldiers fought more and more, and Xiang Yu's soldiers became fewer and fewer..."

Suddenly, Zhang Changzong slapped his thigh and said, "I understand, you don't have to deal with Cui Geng directly, didn't he go to Jiannan Dao?" Just let him toss in Jiannan Road. Our brother's top priority is to get rid of Li Xian and even Li Xian's henchmen, and even if Cui Geng comes back, he will not be able to return to heaven. ”

……

……

Cui Geng didn't know that there was a problem with his back road, and he had already arrived in Jiannan Road with Su Wei at this time.

Jiannan Province inspected the envoys, investigated the corrupt officials and corrupt officials in the territory, and no matter where they went, they had to alarm the local government. Cui Geng didn't want to confront the corrupt officials and corrupt officials of Jiannan Road so early, so as soon as he entered Jiannan Road, he pretended to be a businessman with everyone, and walked forward slowly.

On this day, Cui Geng and others arrived at the outskirts of Chengdu and prepared to go around the city.

Su Wei persuaded: "Erlang, you don't have to enter this Chengdu City, but there is a place where you have to accompany the old man to visit."

"Where?"

"Huanhua Creek, Huanhua Town, Chengdu County, where the stream water is unusually smooth, is the most suitable for papermaking. All the papers used by the imperial court to deliver official documents were made in Huanhua Town. ”

Feng Changqing interjected: "The imperial court official documents and edicts, the civil affairs use white linen paper, and the military affairs use jute paper, and the monthly use of five thousand times. I only knew that this paper was called Shu paper, or Chengdu paper. I really didn't expect that all the hemp paper was from Chengdu Huanhua Town. My lord, why don't we open our eyes? ”

Cui Geng, of course, has nothing to do with this, with his four King Kongs, together with Su Wei, he walked as a car, and with the attitude of touring the mountains and rivers, he slowly came to Huanhua Creek.
