Chapter 1052: A Son Grows Up
"Brother Cui, this time the matter is too big, I'm afraid you can't afford it, for the sake of a kid, do you want to bring your Cui family in?" Cen Wenwen looked at the list in front of him and sighed slightly, with a look of regret on his face.
These big families are still too treacherous, such as the Cui family, although they are not involved in this matter on the surface, but in fact, they are still involved in it, but they are just a side door of the Cui family, providing some food and grass for the rebels, which should be the crime of killing the head, and now Cui Junsu is here, to talk about it, he is here to intercede, but in fact, he is inquiring about the disposal of the Cui family by the imperial court. There are still many families that have this kind of thing, the Zheng family, and the Wang family, but these people have not come yet.
"Although this is the case, but in the end, it is instigated by others, I don't know if the court can open up." Cui Junsu's eyes were scorching, looking at Cen Wenwen, this kind of thing was something he had never thought of, no one would have thought that the rebels had already killed Lu Longsai, and they could defeat Lu Longsai at their sight, but he didn't expect that without reinforcements, a thousand defenders could block it for three days and three nights, knowing that Li Xin personally led the army to kill it, and tens of thousands of rebels were wiped out overnight.
"If you want to open the net, it's not to see what we do, but how Your Majesty looks at it, I heard that in the chaos of the army, Your Majesty was injured by random arrows, and it was very difficult to even ride a horse, this time it was only the calf that was injured, if it was another place, Lord Cui should know the danger of the matter." Cen Wenwen said faintly: "When today's son is not the Yang Guang of the year, it is okay to die a Yang Xuangan." ”
Cen Wenwen's words made Cui Junsu's face pale, Yang Xuangan rebelled back then, but it was only Yang Xuangan and his descendants who died, in fact, nothing happened to those noble families, even the Yang family was alive and well. It's still very good to stay in Hongnong. This time is different, Li Xin is not Yang Guang, how can he allow such a thing to happen.
"Lord Cui, Your Majesty is still very merciful. Although the army rebelled, the people who killed were those who participated, and those who did not participate. Your Majesty will not do it. Cen Wenwen suddenly smiled and said: "Lord Cui, Your Majesty will soon issue a holy decree to canonize the meritorious as the Hou, this battlefield killing the enemy is a meritorious person, this governing the country and the country is also a meritorious person, but reporting rebellion is also a meritorious minister, what does Lord Cui think?" ”
After Cui Junsu heard this, his lips trembled. Cen Wenwen or Li Xin's move is too ruthless. Maybe this sentence is not only said to himself, but also to the big families of other families, let these big families report each other, this is an errand to offend people, and build the safety of their own family on the sake of other families to destroy the family, what a grudge this is, once it happens, I am afraid that the families in the world are enemies of each other. Mo said that he would unite in the future and fight against the imperial court.
Cui Jun looked at Cen Wenwen. Still the same as always, humble and cautious, amiable, it seems to be a gentleman who is as gentle as water, and it seems that he is a friend who can make friends, but Cui Junsu knows. This guy is a demon who can open his fangs and eat people at any time.
"Don't worry, my lord, if the Cui family can find any traces of rebellion, they will definitely come to report to your lordship." Cui Junsu said respectfully. He sighed inwardly. Now people are swordsmen, and I am fish and meat. It's just a matter of seeing what the other party does. Simply enough, the Cui family is relatively famous, and if you want to start, you have to think about it seriously.
Cui Junsu left, Cen Wenwen looked at the back of Cui Junsu leaving, shook his head, the struggle between the family and the imperial power came to an end again, although those big families did not have any big problems, on the contrary, they would definitely report their relatives and friends around them in order to obtain their own safety, but in fact, after this war, it was impossible for the family to go to the road of unity and cooperation. The mutual struggle will become more intense. The imperial court won the final victory.
The reason why he told Cui Junsu this was not only for Cui Junsu, but for other families, he believed that those selfish families would definitely understand the meaning of their words.
Sure enough, only five days after Cui Junsu left, the snowflake-like document flew into Cen Wenwen's hand, and Cen Wenwen was happy at the same time, but also felt a trace of panic and horror, because the amount of information in it was too large, and he was shocked.
"Come, send all these letters to the King of Han in Chang'an. Eight hundred miles to send this letter to His Majesty. Cen Wenwen secretly regretted in his heart, his proud behavior seemed to have touched something. Look at what is on this, Longxi Li, Hongnong Yang, Taiyuan Wang, Jiangnan Shen, Chang'an Wei and other families are involved, and even Zhaojun Li has people involved, and all of a sudden the world's major families are actually involved.
Although some people are only involved in the side of these families, everyone knows the mystery inside, and it is just a temptation of the family. In all dynasties, there have been many such temptations, and as long as there is a relatively large uprising, these temptations are there, but now I didn't expect a small temptation, so I left the handle and handed over my initiative.
In the final analysis, Li Xin was too strong, so strong that the family had to obey Li Xin's arrangement, and this time it was tantamount to putting his life in Li Xin's hands.
"Hey! I don't know what kind of arrangements these emperors will have. Even Cen Wenwen's face showed a hint of regret, this time, almost all the big families were wiped out, if it was according to Li Xin's previous character, I am afraid that these people would not be able to escape death.
The major families of Kanto, Guanzhong, Jiangnan, and Bashu have looked at Chang'an City, or looked farther away, and the content of the report is similar to everyone.
"I heard that several ministers in the Wude Hall have held several meetings." Wei Yuan looked at Wei Kuangbo who was lying on the bed and said in a low voice.
"If anything really happens, push me out, I'm running out of time." Wei Kuangbo sighed: "Who knew that those guys were so incompetent, and those big families were so shameless that they picked us in. Acquiescence, acquiescence is also a sin? Everyone in the world was sinful, hateful Kanto family. It's going to pull everyone into the water! ”
"It's not exactly, but this time the scope is more extensive, and I heard that the biggest rats this time are not those families. It's Zhao Jun Li. Wei Yuanzhao said in a low voice.
"What a thief! Do you really think you can change your life against the sky? Zhao Jun Li, and he has no credit, he still occupies the position of the clan relatives, hehe, now that the princes have grown up and are about to become adults, these people are the real clan relatives, Zhao Jun Li would be better if he could add points in this matter, but I didn't expect it. is so short-sighted, now it's okay, the position of the clan relatives will be deprived. Wei Kuangbo said with some schadenfreude.
"Actually, the biggest credit is probably to find the man in black, there is no news about the warrior Tong now, I heard that the people on the Kanto side are looking for the warrior Tong, and there are two people who are the rebel commander in black, and one is Li Chengdao, the king of Anlu. Gee! ”
"Li Chengdao, King of Anlu? I don't know what those big families think. Li Jiancheng finally left some bones and blood, and was buried like this. No matter how merciful His Majesty the Emperor is, when he encounters this kind of thing, Li Chengdao will definitely die. Wei Kuangbo smiled dumbly.
"In the past few days, people have been staring at Zheng Niangniang! There are a lot of rumors in the harem. Wei Yuanzhao said with some schadenfreude.
"This matter asked Nizi not to get involved, His Majesty the Emperor is a person who misses the old love, what happened outside. It won't involve the harem mother. Wei Kuangbo shook his head and said, "Actually, I'm more concerned about the man in black, who do you think it is?" Wei Kuangbo's eyes stared at Wei Yuanzhao, flashing with a light that was different from his condition.
"I have preliminary suspicions. Is it someone from the Li family, a person from the Li family in Longxi, or someone left by Li Yuan. I just don't know who the other party really is. Wei Yuanzhao thought for a while and said: "I'm afraid that many people can think of this problem, but there are only a few people in the Li family, and no one knows who they are." ”
"Then go and look for it, don't stare at those who are more famous, but go to those who are not famous, this is the most important thing." Wei Kuangbo coughed and said: "The more powerful the person, the more he will not show himself outside, don't stare at Li Daozong and the others, these people have completely surrendered to His Majesty, how can they be such a person." Li Xiaogong is a smart person, and he will not do such a thing. ”
"Yes, little brother, I'll arrange it." Wei Yuanzhao's eyes lit up, Wei Kuangbo was right, others were staring at those talented people, but they didn't know that these people had been enveloped by Li Xin, and it was so difficult to let them do things. There are also a few frustrated people in the Li family, who are not noticed by others at all, only such people can join the rebels, or even lead the rebels, but I don't know who is here, Wei Yuanzhao has already thought of several candidates in his mind, and he decided to send people to keep an eye on these people.
Once the person behind this is found, the Chang'an Wei family will not only be able to maintain their current status, but they can even go further. Thinking about the merits of Wei Yuancheng and Wei Siyan on the front line, it may not be impossible for the Wei family to further develop.
"Big brother is here to recuperate, I'll go find someone to monitor the Li family first." When Wei Yuanzhao thought of this, his face showed excitement.
"Mr. Du, what do you say my father will do with these rebellions?" In the Wude Palace, a young man, who looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old, at this time in the Tang Dynasty, was a little Langjun, he had a handsome face, wearing a brocade robe, holding a book in his hand, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes. It was Li Chengzong, the king of Han.
"What does Your Highness think these people should do?" Du Ruhui looked at Li Chengzong in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he was very satisfied with Li Chengzong, the heir of the empire, although he was not as bold and powerful as Li Xin, he had the means, but he was talented, kind, and more importantly, he appreciated his sensitivity to politics. Therefore, when teaching government affairs, Du Ruhui and others are also hand-in-hand training.
"According to my father's character, I am afraid that he will make an example of him. It's just that if so many people are killed, I'm afraid the world will also be greatly damaged. There will be a lot of people talking about it. Li Chengzong thought for a while and sighed: "According to the student's suggestion, although these people are hateful, for the sake of the stability of the empire, it is best to only kill the first evil at this time." ”
"Does Your Highness know why Your Majesty knows that these people will rebel, but still gives these people a chance?" Du Ruhui nodded, Li Chengzong is even more powerful than Li Xin, he knows that there is a need for compromise in politics, and it is difficult for Li Xin to know.
Of course, this is also different from Li Xin's position, Li Xin is holding the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, how powerful it is, the Tang Dynasty was beaten down by him, at this time, it is said that some man-made rebellion, that is, the whole world rebels, Li Xin doesn't care.
"What does the teacher mean is that my father wants to wipe out all these people?" Li Chengzong's face was stunned when he heard this, and he said a little nervously: "There are so many people, all of them are wiped out, and there are so many casualties!" ”
"Your Highness, this family is like a moth, if you don't kill it at this moment, it will still be attached to the empire in the future, and finally it will become a matter of the former Sui, Your Majesty will cut it down now, it is also for the sake of His Highness, should you wait until Your Highness ascends the throne to kill it? Isn't it too late then? Your Majesty, this is for the good of Your Highness. lest His Highness have to worry about this matter after he comes to power? Du Ruhui said in a low voice.
"Alas!" Li Chengzong took a deep breath.
"Your Highness, if Your Majesty asks, Your Highness must remember it, and only punish the evil! The rest should be exiled to the Quartet. Du Ruhui glanced around and said in a low voice.
"Why does the gentleman say that, isn't my father?" Li Chengzong asked with some curiosity.
"Although Your Majesty wants to kill these people, but that is Your Majesty, Your Highness can only be the master of Shoucheng, if Your Highness also wants to be like Your Majesty, expand the territory, but it is not conducive to the stability of the country, Your Majesty will rest assured that the country will be handed over to you?" Du Ruhui persuaded in a low voice: "What's more, this is His Highness's heart, His Highness can't go against his own heart." ”
"Sir's eyes, boy, keep it in mind." Li Chengzong's eyes lit up, and his face suddenly showed joy.
"The meritorious ministers who went on this expedition, Your Highness should also remember, please ask the emperor to reward him, and he can even list the territory and seal the territory." Du Ruhui persuaded again: "Actually, Your Majesty just wants to list the territory and seal off all those big families, decompose their strength, and weaken their power. (To be continued.) )
