Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3293
Since the beginning of winter, there has been heavy snowfall in Chang'an.

Since ancient times, snow disasters have never been easier than water and fire disasters. Traffic congestion, poor information, and insufficient production resources often make a snow disaster poison countless people, especially those farmers who live outside the city and herdsmen near the frontier. Is deeply affected.

If this kind of heavy snowfall was placed in the early years of Zhenguan, it would be a natural disaster that would affect the entire Guanzhong. Even though Guanzhong is the heart of the country and gathers the most powerful human and material resources of the Tang Empire, it still has to be faced with such a snow disaster. The government was helpless, causing countless people to die of cold and hunger and become displaced.

If it is outside of Gyeonggi, it may even trigger a huge wave of refugees, and countless people will become refugees...

However, since the establishment of the "Emergency Yamen", every time a natural disaster occurs, the relevant yamen of the imperial court have been connected together to distribute supplies, organize rescue, coordinate resettlement, and the garrisons from all over the country participated in the rescue and rescue, and the effect was surprisingly good.

Guanzhong has not experienced large-scale casualties or epidemics due to natural disasters for many years.

Therefore, whenever natural disasters come and the government and army are assigned by the officials of the yamen to participate in the rescue, the people will be grateful and respect Fang Jun who established such a yamen when he was Jing Zhaoyin.

With the news of the victory of the Battle of Hexi, Fang Jun became a "both civil and military" hero and was worshiped by countless people.And those unruly playboys even regarded Fang Jun as a role model that they admired all their lives and a benchmark that they strived to pursue.

The name of Fang Jun is unparalleled.

……

After the heavy snowfall, the Xingqing Palace was covered in silver, and all the buildings in the palace were hidden under the frost and snow, making it look more crystal clear, exquisite and gorgeous.

Li Chengqian was sitting in the flower hall, drinking hot tea, and looking out the glass window at the rockery pavilion made of ice and jade.Different from the majestic grandeur and solemnity of the Taiji Palace, the Xingqing Palace is more gentle and beautiful, just like the mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. No wonder Emperor Gaozu chose this place to live in seclusion after he took the Zen throne. It is indeed more suitable for health preservation.

Opposite him, Xiao Yu and Cen Wenwen were flipping through the battle report sent by Fang Jun to Chang'an, the more they looked at it, the more shocked they became, and their expressions were extremely ugly.

The Guanlongmen faction blindly manages the Western Regions, constantly planting their own children in the Anxi Duhufu, controlling the power of the Duhufu, and regards the Silk Road as their own territory. They are greedy for profits while rejecting dissidents, which leads to the imperial court's control of the Western Regions. Surrender again and again, how could they, the big bosses of the court, not know?

It's just that the Guanlongmen faction has been powerful these years, and they have been overwhelmed by the government. How can they still have the energy to organize the Guanlongmen faction to conquer the Western Regions?

Furthermore, various interest exchanges and political compromises in private make them turn a blind eye.

However, they never expected that in order to continue to monopolize the interests of the Western Regions, the Guanlongmen faction colluded with the Turks and Arabs to send troops deep into the hinterland of the Western Regions, informed the whereabouts of the Youtunwei, and tried their best to cooperate in annihilating the Youtunwei...

Simply insane!
There is also a bottom line in political struggle, no matter what kind of interest exchange and political compromise can be unscrupulous, such acts of collaborating with the enemy and treason are absolutely not allowed to exist.

Cen Wenwen is already old, his beard and hair are all white, and he suffered from a serious illness in summer, but he recovered from his illness after winter, and he is in good spirits. At this moment, he patted the table in front of him with his palm, raised his eyebrows, and burst into anger: "It's really You bastard! This group of traitors who only seek self-interest and disregard righteousness, everyone can punish them! Your Highness should immediately summon the three justices to file a case for investigation. , should go to jail and be severely punished!"

Xiao Yu hurriedly said: "This is a big matter, how can you be so rash? You might as well write to Liaodong first, and ask Your Majesty to make a decision."

He is well aware of the intertwined relationship between the various families, once the case is investigated with great fanfare and made known to everyone in the world, there will be no room for change.And once the Guanlongmen Clan is involved in this case with many people, who knows which family and which Clan will be implicated under the severe punishment of the national law?

If it is involved wantonly, it will definitely shake the government and the public.

Right now, Chang'an is not at peace, and the various forces are secretly wrestling with each other. If such a major case breaks out, a little carelessness will lead to the collapse of the situation, and no matter how bad the outcome may be...

Cen Wenwen had to get angry and shouted angrily: "Absurd! The old man also knows that this case is very involved and can easily lead to the collapse of the government. But the law of the country is in the forefront. How can we care about a little difficulty before the big right and wrong? If this case is not severely punished today, Others will follow suit in the future, how do you treat it?"

He turned his head to look at Li Chengqian, his face was flushed, and his tone was sonorous: "Your Highness, this matter is difficult and the consequences are unpredictable, but the majesty of the national law should be clearly demonstrated, and no slightest blasphemy is allowed! If you take a step back today, you will have it in the future." Take two steps back, back and forth, where will the law of the country be placed?"

Li Chengqian hurriedly said: "Old man, stay calm and don't be impatient, don't get angry, it will be serious if you hurt your body."

He has a headache.

Although he is soft-tempered, he is definitely not stupid.Xiao Yu advocated a long-term plan, and wrote to ask his father to let his father make a decision on this matter. It was definitely not what he said in his mouth, fearing that it would affect the stability of the government. The Xiao family of Lanling was very close to the Guanlong clan before, who knew what was going on here Will their family be involved?And Cen Wenwen was filled with anger, and his face was upright. It may not be because he really wants to show the majesty of the national law and severely punish the lawless. These people in the court may have a carrot and a hole in their hearts, and they may not have a little heart to replace them...

In fact, how many officials in the imperial court sincerely consider the interests of the empire, and they all proceed from the perspective of the interests of the empire?

Fighting openly and secretly has become the norm. Whether the case is handled in a special way, some people will suffer as a result, while others will benefit from it.

Even the supreme emperor, how could he ever be able to distinguish right from wrong?
Sometimes I know it's wrong, but I have to do it reluctantly. The reason is just four words - take the overall situation into consideration.

But on this matter, he didn't intend to compromise.

He can tolerate courtiers fighting for power and gain, he can tolerate conspiracy and tricks, and he can tolerate framing and framing, but collaborating with the enemy and treason, colluding with the enemy's country in an attempt to kill his own robe, this kind of thing cannot be tolerated!
That's all for the Turkic people, but the Great Food Kingdom is at war with the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, occupying most of the Protectorate of the Western Regions, and there are some people who dare to risk the world's disgrace, collude with the Great Cannibals, and lead them all the way into the hinterland of the Western Regions. How can it be tolerated to hand over Baishui Town, which guards the traffic throat of Tianshan Mountain?
If you endure it, will those people give Yumen Pass and Dashan Pass to the Hu people tomorrow, and then lead the Hu people to invade Chang'an, and then hand over the Tang Dynasty?
Of course, he can't blindly insist on cracking down with strong emotions, he still needs to pay attention to some strategies.

After all, although he is now more stable as the crown prince than before, he is not completely settled, and his position is still uncertain. If he severely reprimands the Guanlongmen Clan and resolutely cracks down on him, and takes serious action, those guys will inevitably start to attack his reserve position again. .

A blow is definitely going to be a blow, but it's not a bad thing to have a hard head in the front to attract firepower...

He hesitated for a while, put down his teacup, and said helplessly to Cen Wenwen: "The old man is a veteran of the two dynasties. He has always been loyal and strong. His father and the emperor respect him very much. This time he rectifies the heart of the country's law, and Gu also feels the same. But now The court situation is unstable, and the father is far away in Liaodong. If the case is too strict, it seems to maintain the justice of the national law, but in fact it will easily cause some people to become frightened and resentful. If they are not sure, they will do something terrible However, he lacks prestige and virtue, and he is always trembling, like walking on thin ice, lest he make a mistake, which will lead to the collapse of the government and the instability of the society, and he will fail the entrustment of his father. Therefore, this case Although it is serious, how to deal with it needs to be discussed in the long run..."

Xiao Yu blinked her eyes, thinking, who the hell said the prince is kind and innocent, and doesn't know how to plan?Listening to what he said, both inside and outside the words are for the sake of the overall situation, and he advised Cen Wenwen to be patient, but in fact every word is arguing, all he has to say is "You can't charge into battle alone as a prince, Cen Aiqing, you go first "...

This is not at all a question of whether Cen Wenwen is fooled or not, but tells Cen Wenwen, "You take the lead in the charge, and I will watch the enemy for you alone, and give you full support."

Cen Wenwen also has his own interests, which are contrary to the Guanlongmen Clan, and now the Guanlongmen Clan is handing the knife handle to Cen Wenwen, who can justifiably suppress the Guanlongmen Clan. Reason to shirk?
