Chapter 832: Forcing the Palace
War? It has always been necessary to be prepared or to respond to the battle as a last resort.
And in the current situation, Tian Lingzi will never think that it is time for war. He is staying in Shu now, and he thinks it's very good, but he doesn't want to follow a son of heaven who wants to touch a stone with an egg when his brain is hot. However, he can't watch the emperor touch this stone, and he Tian Lingzi can maintain his current status, in fact, to a large extent, in the name of this son of heaven. If there was no Son of Heaven, his brothers would be just ordinary feudal town leaders. In any case, the Emperor is an extremely useful sign in his hands, and he cannot watch him kill himself.
"Long live the holy book is extremely clear, and the old minister also thought that Li Jing's move was a great disapproval of the world, but fortunately, the old minister carefully sent someone to investigate. It was discovered that this matter was alarmist from the person who reported the news, and someone in the Qin domain did propose to support the establishment of a clan to supervise the country, and it is said that this clan is the Nine Emperor Uncle Zhao Wang under Dengzhou. However, this was just a proposal from Qin Fan's subordinates, and Li Jing had already directly rejected it. Tian Lingzi said.
Li Yi felt a little surprised, Tian Lingzi and Li Jing were incompatible at the beginning, but today Tian Lingzi actually began to speak out to defend Li Jing and defend him, which is also too bizarre. He was suspicious, but he understood it immediately.
Tian Lingzi was giving him a step, because the imperial court couldn't move Li Jing at all. As long as Li Jing didn't do anything too rebellious, the towns would not risk sending troops to attack Li Jing. If he issued an edict to crusade against Li Jing, but no one responded, then his prestige as a son of heaven would be lost. completely tore his face with Li Jing, but he couldn't sanction Li Jing. The results will be catastrophic. If things really come to that point, Li Jing may really set up another son of heaven.
However, he was still a little unwilling, and the Yellow Nest was almost over. Maybe he can fight with Li Jing, Li Jing has 400,000 soldiers, and he also has more than 300,000 troops? What's more, if this battle is going to start, he is the son of the Tang Dynasty, in fact, Zhuzhen will stand on his side.
He looked at Yang Fugong, but saw that he was silent. Then he asked, "Lieutenant Yang." What do you think? ”
Before the Son of Heaven came, Yang Fugong had already met with Tian Lingzi and Ximen Sigong. Except for Zhang Tai, who was pro-Li Jing, they did not discuss with him, and the result of a simple meeting between the three of them was not to condone the excessive behavior of the Son of Heaven. Not only can it not support the whims of the Son of Heaven. The act of playing with fire, and even pouring a few basins of cold water on him.
Originally, he didn't plan to speak in the palace today, but since he had already asked the head, he had to come out and reply: "Li Jing is an important minister of the country." The rebellious Generalissimo. He had always acted steadily, and he would never have done such a disloyal thing. It's just that someone in the Qin domain is talking nonsense, and it has nothing to do with the King of Qin. His Majesty, Li Jing is about to get married on the eighteenth of this month, and will marry the daughter of Yu Xuan, the festival commander of Tianping Town, as his wife, and the Yu brothers will marry their daughters-in-law. The horses are all lieutenants, and the same Ping Zhangshi Yu Cong will each marry a daughter. In addition, the righteousness of the festival makes Kang Chengzhu, and the Xuanwu festival makes Xin Yan. In addition, there are more than 30 wealthy families such as Lanling Xiao, Taiyuan Wang, Jingzhao Wei, Du, Hedong Pei, Qinghe Cui, Bohai Cui, Zhaojun Li, Qingzhou Han, etc. In addition, the Haidong Balhae Kingdom, the Silla Kingdom, the Dongying Kingdom, and the Northeast Tatar, Xixi, Qibi, Anqing, and Sage also went to congratulate them. I heard that even the Arab Empire, the Eastern Roman Empire and other Western powers in the distant Taixi have sent envoys to Hebei to congratulate, in addition to "
Yang Fugong read for half an hour in one breath, Li Jing's wedding is definitely a centennial event. The Tang Dynasty, the Fan State, and even the Taixi Prefecture and the Western Regions all sent people to congratulate them. And the feudal towns of the Tang Dynasty, Yicheng and other towns that have a good relationship with Li Jing have all sent dowry vessels, and even other feudal towns that can't be beaten by eight poles have also sent people to pay attention to and witness this wedding.
The more Li Yi listened, the more gloomy his face became, and he knew the meaning of Yang Fugong's words.
Li Jing's current power is very strong, and he is very popular, and he is more popular than him, the son of heaven, at least after he arrived in Chengdu, the towns have not come to pay tribute so generously.
What's wrong with this world?
The lord is weak and the minister is strong!
He just remembered in his heart that there were already eight feudal towns that Li Jing had won over through marriage, and the Qin domain was nine towns. These nine towns stretched from the northeast to the southeast, almost including half of the eastern part of the Tang Empire.
Li Yiqiang pressed the panic in his heart, calmed down, turned his gaze to Tian Lingzi again, and asked, "What is Father's opinion?" Although he became more and more disliked for Tian Lingzi, the old eunuch's dominance, he still had a new army of 100,000 gods in his hands. In addition, he also controls the three towns of Sanchuan through Chen Jingxuan and several henchmen, so it can be said that Tian Lingzi is now equivalent to the king of Shu, much more powerful than him, the son of heaven. If he confronts Li Jing, he may be able to use his strength, after all, the dead eunuch and Li Jing used to be mortal enemies.
Tian Lingzi knew Li Yi's thoughts very well, but he would never support him at this juncture. It is true that he and Li Jing are at odds, but they will not hinder his judgment because of personal grievances. He is now very satisfied with his life as a king of Shu who is not the king of Shu, and he doesn't want to collide with the dragon Li Jing for the sake of Li Yi's personal feelings and ideas.
After lowering his head and thinking about it, he spoke: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that it is just some misunderstanding, and if you make it clear, there will be no problem." ”
Li Yi stared at Tian Lingzi, very disappointed.
But Tian Lingzi didn't care at all, and continued: "If Your Majesty can issue an edict, the old minister guarantees that Li Jing will never mention the matter of supporting King Zhao as the prisoner of the country again. ”
"What edict?"
"The next sin has been edicted, and then the next decree will be crowned the princess of the daughter of Xuan, and the other three daughters of the Yu family will also be crowned the title of county lord. In addition, another edict was issued to withdraw the previous official rewards for the generals of the Qin Domain, and even the rewards of Cui Anqian's five people were canceled. Tian Lingzi said slowly.
The look on Li Yi's face changed from disappointment to anger.
The edict of self-sin is to let him bear all the responsibility for the crime, and treat natural and man-made disasters and military disasters. It's all on yourself. In this way, what other prestige can he, the emperor, have? Not to mention, at the beginning of his accession to the throne. is still in Youchong, and state affairs are handled by Tian Lingzi and others. Although he has started to be pro-government now, he can't do many things. It's like giving up the two capitals and hunting in Chengdu, which one of them is up to him. But now, all the responsibility has to be shouldered by him.
It's still barely acceptable, after all. He is the Son of Heaven, and the world is in chaos, no matter what. He is the son of heaven who is responsible.
can let him add the title of princess to Li Jing's wives and concubines who are about to enter at this time, what is this?
He knew how self-deceiving he was that the so-called proposal to supervise the state was just a subordinate of the Qin Domain. This is definitely controlled by Li Jing, and the purpose is to fight back against the soldiers of the Qin Domain who rewarded him last time. And now, he was forced into the palace by Li Jing. Bullying. But they also let themselves give Li Jing's wives and concubines who are about to enter the title of princess and county lord, this is a slapped left cheek, do you want him to stick the right cheek on it?
When did the royal princess and county lord names become so worthless?
He was a dignified son of heaven, he was bullied by Li Jing, and he had to please him like this, this deception was too much!
If that's all he wants, he gritted his teeth and could accept it.
But Tian Lingzi, the dead eunuch, actually asked him to issue an order to retract the previous will to reward the soldiers of the Qin Domain.
It's literally for him to eat the he pulled out again. There's nothing more disgusting than this. If he does this, he will truly admit defeat and surrender to Li Jing. He knew that the old eunuch Dao Tian Lingzi was very shrewd. At a glance, the true core intent of this incident was revealed.
Everything started because he wanted to balance Li Jing, and it started with that edict. Therefore, after the last time, Tian Lingzi proposed that he also return to the edict and cancel the edict. Let him slap himself in the face, and then Li Jing won the whole game. From then on, the soldiers of the Qin clan will definitely have no hearts to the court and the Son of Heaven, they will feel that they are being played and played with by the Son of Heaven. From then on, they would follow Li Jing with all their hearts, and Li Jing could take this opportunity to further win the hearts of the soldiers of the Qin Domain.
"Never!" Li Yi finally couldn't bear the anger in his heart. "Never, never, unless I'm dead!"
Tian Lingzi said unhurriedly: "There are still a few days before Li Jing's wedding, if His Majesty sends out the edict tomorrow morning, with the fastest horse, the edict should be delivered to the wedding site on the day of Li Jing's wedding." It's still morning, and your majesty still has a day to think about. ”
Li Yi's eyes almost burst into flames. Stared directly at Tian Lingzi, "What if I still refuse to issue this edict tomorrow?" ”
"Then after Li Jing's wedding, he may immediately support King Zhao as the prison country!" Tian Lingzi said coldly, with a hint of warning in his tone. If it does, it will be very bad for him. In order to stabilize the situation, he, Li Jing's enemy, had to put some pressure on the Son of Heaven. Thinking of this, Tian Lingzi suddenly felt that all this was very absurd and ridiculous, but sometimes, this is the case.
Li Yi stood up and left directly.
The ministers also withdrew from the hall, and Chen Jingxuan followed behind Tian Lingzi, "Why do we work so hard for Li Jing, the Son of Heaven wants to compete with Li Jing, why don't we sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight?" ”
Li Yi has been very close to the Yang brothers recently, but he is becoming more and more distant from their brothers. Moreover, he also knew that Li Yi reused the Yang brothers, and Yang Fuguang has also worked very hard recently, winning the support of several feudal towns in the Central Plains for Li Yi, attracting two or three hundred thousand troops, and even directly mastering an elite army of tens of thousands of people. This is what really made Li Yi gradually lose his temper and burst with confidence. The rise of the Yang brothers made the Tian Lingzi brothers feel a great threat.
"There are some things that can be done, and some things that cannot be done. Although we are mortal enemies with Li Jing, but in the current situation, Li Jing and we are separated by thousands of miles, and the well water does not interfere with the river water for a while. On the contrary, it is the Yang brothers who are really our fierce rivals. Originally, letting the Son of Heaven fight with Li Jing is really good for us. But you only see one thing, you don't see the other. Li Jing is not the original Li Jing now, this time Li Jing's wedding, you have also seen it, how big is the pomp and circumstance? To put it bluntly, that scene is even bigger than the scene of the heavenly family. ”
What does this mean? It shows that Li Jing has become a climate. If the Son of Heaven endures, maybe when the Yellow Nest is destroyed, relying on the mutual checks and balances between the feudal towns, at least a court can be saved. But if the Son of Heaven is so impatient as he is now, then Li Jing will really have to set up another Son of Heaven if he can't do it. At that time, the Son of Heaven will certainly eat the bitter fruit of his own suffering, but we will also lose the biggest card in our hand. Without the Son of Heaven, our brothers' lives will be far worse than they are now. Therefore, brother, I don't care about the emperor, the key is that this involves our net worth and lives, and we have to sell Li Jing a coolie. ”
Chen Jingxuan nodded, somewhat understanding.
"Will Your Majesty agree to those three edicts?"
Tian Lingzi squinted his eyes slightly, "Give him a day, although he is sometimes a little stubborn, but in the end he will understand the situation and know how to give in." ”
Chen Jingxuan shook his head and scolded in a low voice: "Damn, it turns out that the emperor is not free!" (To be continued......)
