Chapter 1074: Take the long term
Today, Zhao Ziliang forced the palace in the Zichen Palace, took down his uncle on the spot in front of the emperor, and appointed the post of general of Zuojin Wuwei to Zhang Xianfu, which was undoubtedly depriving the emperor of his rights in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, and let him stay in the deep palace completely. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Among the ministers of the imperial court, there are many ministers from the Li Tang clan, but today none of them stood up to stop Zhao Ziliang, and even used silence to show their support, which shows that they do not want the emperor to interfere in the government again, and also show that they do not have any confidence in the emperor's governance.
At least in their opinion, Zhao Ziliang is a sane person, rarely emotional person, and has never killed ministers and generals indiscriminately for no reason since he came to power, unless there is evidence that someone has violated the law of the country. He respects any talented, virtuous, and loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and will not overturn all the imperial relatives and clans.
When Emperor Daizong was in power, because his ears were too soft, he was often instigated by eunuchs and ministers, and many ministers with both virtue and talent were exiled and executed, among which many people in the clan were exiled and executed. As a courtier for such an emperor, you often have to worry that you will be executed, your house will be raided, and exiled for no reason, and this worry is not a day or two, but a few years or ten years, which many people cannot bear psychologically.
In the eyes of many clan ministers, as long as Zhao Ziliang does not usurp the throne and does not change the dynasty, they can accept that Zhao Ziliang will continue to govern, after all, this country is not theirs, even if Daizong does not become the emperor, the emperor's position will not be their turn. At least Zhao Ziliang's administration can quickly calm down the Tang Dynasty and eliminate the rebellion quickly.
Back in the regent palace, Zhao Ziliang sat down on the main seat, stood up and hugged his fists and said: "King, now the palace has been controlled by us, if no one is allowed to see the emperor, the government and the opposition are afraid that they will think that the king has placed the emperor under house arrest, which is not conducive to the prestige of the king. ”
Li Mi stood up and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Lord Gao's consideration is certainly very reasonable, but Wei Chen thinks that it is a little too hasty to do it to Pei Mian and the others now!" ”
Zhao Ziliang was stunned when he heard this, looked at Li Mi, and asked, "Master Li, tell me what you think!" ”
"Yes, King!" Li Mi straightened his clothes, stood up and said to the other ministers and staff: "The king has just commanded an army in front of the emperor, forced the emperor into the inner palace again, and arrested the uncle of the country. Besides, Pei Mian and the others are active now, and they seem to want to contact more people, why don't the king give him a little time, see who else in the court is against the king, and which people are not strong-willed, only give them a little time, they will jump out, if they do it now, there will definitely be many people who will retract, and it will be difficult to find them out! Wei Chen is a little worried now, Cheng Wu in the imperial history is a jealous and hateful person, in the past few months, they are only afraid that they have been investigating Pei Mian and others, and want to find evidence of Pei Mian and others' corruption and perversion of the law, if the evidence is sufficient, he will definitely attack! When the time comes, it will not be good if the deployment of the king is disrupted! ”
Zhao Ziliang thought deeply after standing up for Li Mi's words, and nodded: "Not bad." It's really too early to do it to Pei Mian and the others, first, this matter has not passed just now, and if there is another big incident, the government and the opposition will panic; On the other hand, we can't just be satisfied with finding out Pei Mian and these people, but also find out other people who have committed crimes! Come on, go and call Wu Yan over! ”
"Yes, King!"
In the imperial history, Cheng Wu Yan soon arrived, and when he saw Zhao Ziliang, he bowed his hand and said, "Weichen greets the king!" ”
"Excuse me!" Zhao Ziliang raised his hand and asked, "Wu Yan, how is the investigation of Pei Mian and the others carried out by the Yushitai?" ”
Wu Yan said: "Back to the king, Weichen is about to report to the king, and the imperial history platform has already mastered the exact evidence of Pei Mian's betrayal of the official mantle. It's just that he hasn't mastered the evidence of his comrades Yang Juan, Chang Gon, Cui Youfu and others, Wei Chen thinks that since he already has the evidence of Pei Mian, he will arrest Pei Mian first, and then interrogate him strictly, and open the gap from his mouth, and he will definitely be able to find the evidence of Yang Juan, Chang Gon, Cui Youfu and others! ”
After listening to this, Zhao Ziliang said: "If you catch Pei Mian first, won't you startle the snake?" The layout of this king in the court, in which Pei Mian and others are an extremely important part, the arrest of Pei Mian and others has been postponed for the time being, you continue to investigate the problems of Yang Juan, Chang Gon and Cui Youfu, if Yu Shitai wants to arrest any officials above the fifth grade, he must report to this king, and only after obtaining permission can he act, and he cannot make claims without permission! This king will never favor anyone, but in the face of national affairs, some things must give way first. When the matter is over, this king will naturally tell you when you can do it, understand? ”
Wu Yan arched his hand and said: "Yes, Weichen understands!" ”
Zhao Ziliang said again: "Since you presided over the Imperial Historical Observatory, the Imperial Historical Observatory has handled several major cases in the past six months, and has found out a large number of moths, spies and traitors in the court, and maintained the discipline and strictness of the law of the imperial court. ”
Wu Yan immediately bowed: "Weichen thank the king for his trust and entrusted with the important task, and in the future, he will abide by the king's admonitions, self-denial, abide by the way of being a minister, and be loyal to the court!" ”
After Zhang Xianfu took over the helm of Zuo Jin Wuwei, he launched a search in the palace, and the next day he found out Li Zhongyan's henchman, Yang Ce, the general of Zuo Jin Wuwei, and found bloody weapons, night clothes, climbing ropes and other items in Yang Ce's room, and Yang Ce was killed on the spot in the process of resistance.
After Zhao Ziliang got the news, he immediately rushed to the palace with the minister of civil and military affairs, and reprimanded Zhang Xianfu loudly in front of the emperor. However, in view of the fact that Zhang Xianfu had just taken office and cracked the case in less than a day, Zhao Ziliang still rewarded and encouraged Zhang Xianfu and rewarded him with some gold and silver property.
Others don't know, but Daizong knows very well that Yang Ce is not an assassin at all, and there is no mastermind behind him, Yang Ce is a military general that he and Li Zhongyan recently recruited from Zuo Jin Wuwei, and he was killed on the spot by Zhao Ziliang on the charge of an assassin, which is undoubtedly Zhao Ziliang warning him.
The palace assassin case has finally come to an end, and the courtiers who don't know the truth are relieved that the court can finally be at peace for a while.
Next, Pei Mian and the others stopped for a few days, did not contact each other again, and did not dare to enter the palace to see the emperor, for fear of being targeted. However, after watching for more than ten days, Pei Mian found that the court was calm, so he was unwilling to be lonely, moved again, and began to frequently contact the generals of the guards in Chang'an. The regent palace has not moved, but just sent people to keep an eye on them to see who they have close contacts with, and the alert courtiers and ministers never saw Pei Mian again after seeing him once, and the court ministers who were not determined were moved by Pei Mian and others and had close contacts with them.
・・・・・・
Chenzhou, the camp of Zang Xiyan's army, the garrison of the Shence army.
Luo Yuanguang was a Persian, with an Iranian appearance, a thin face and a big beard, he was tall and slender, and the back of the hand holding the handle of the knife was bruised.
Luo Yuanguang looked at the scribe sitting next to him and asked, "Where is the gentleman from?" What do you want to see General Ben? ”
The scribe said with a smile: "Zai Xia once begged for food in Lingzun Luogong's mansion, but since Luo Gong's accident, Zai Xia had to vote for others in order to make a living!" Today I came to tell the general about Ling Zun! ”
Luo Yuanguang's face changed, and he suddenly got up and said, "What? What did you just say? Something happened to my stepfather? What happened? ”
The scribe pretended to be surprised and said, "The general doesn't know? Ling Zun Luo Gong was arrested and put in prison by order of the regent more than a month ago, and now he is being interrogated by the Imperial Historical Observatory, and I heard that he will be beheaded soon! ”
Luo Yuanguang squinted at Luo Yuanguang and asked, "Why was my stepfather arrested and put in prison?" Why did the regent do this? ”
The scribe sneered, "What else can there be?" It's nothing more than a factional struggle and a power struggle! If Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong and others were in power, then the current regent is not the emperor but is better than the emperor, now the emperor has been completely hollowed out by Zhao Ziliang, the prince was injured in the battle in Xingyang, and died within a few days after returning to Chang'an, the prince's party also collapsed, the prime minister's faction was hit by Zhao Ziliang and suffered heavy losses, Yuan Zai and others were afraid, and had to be a turtle with a shrunken head, the emperor was trapped in the deep palace and could not interfere in the government, and the court was looking for someone to have the final say, and the Tang Dynasty was not far from changing the dynasty! ”
Luo Yuanguan didn't say anything after listening to the scribe's words, kept staring at him, and suddenly changed his face and shouted, "Who are you?" What is the purpose of being here? ”
The scribe arched his hand and said, "General, in Xia Xiao Kan!" Thinking of the grace of Luo Gong to the next day, he came to tell the general about the news, the general is the adopted son of Luo Gong, but he is in charge of the power of the Shence Army, Zhao is afraid that he will not let go of the general, the Shence Army is an army with extraordinary combat power, how can he allow it to be in the hands of the righteous son of a political enemy? In the next sentence of advice to the general, it is better to make a plan early, lest Zhao's knife is on the general's neck, and the general will regret it too late at that time? ”
Luo Yuanguang stared at the scribe until he suddenly shouted after a cup of tea: "Come on, catch this gap!" ”
The scribe was shocked, "General, why do you ・・・・・・ you do this?" I came to inform the general of the news, how could the general cross the river and tear down the bridge? ”
Luo Yuanguang didn't listen, and ordered the soldiers to take him away and lock him up.
