Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 3687

Cheng Yaojin's words and expressions were all contemptuous and disdainful. Fortunately, Yuwen Shi and his whole life were ups and downs in the sea of ​​​​Huan.

Immediately, he looked solemn, looked at Li Ji, and said solemnly: "I want to see His Majesty, may I?"

Since it was reported that His Majesty fell from a horse in Liaodong and fell into a coma, no one has ever seen His Majesty in person.Although the eldest grandson Wuji swore and assured several allies in Guanlong that His Majesty would never return to Chang'an alive, several Guanlong bosses were still apprehensive.

Your Majesty the next generation of heroes and heroes, if you really die, that's all, everyone will naturally have no scruples, but in case the eldest grandson Wuji has some discrepancies...

Whoever raises an army today to "remonstrate" will die tomorrow.

Without seeing His Majesty's body, Yuwen Shiji didn't dare to be completely relieved.

Li Ji, however, did not even hesitate, and said categorically: "It is absolutely impossible. Your Majesty is seriously injured and unconscious. All outside visits must be avoided, and he cannot bear the slightest risk. I hope Duke Ying understands."

Both parties knew that His Majesty had long since passed away, and now there is only a coffin in the army, but they were unwilling to point out this point, but were talking nonsense with their eyes open.

The army was Li Ji's territory, so Yuwen Shi couldn't take him, so he nodded and said, "Your Majesty, Hong Fu Qi Tian, ​​will be able to turn evil into good fortune."

After saying a few words dryly, he pointed directly at the core: "Your Majesty's expedition to the east, leaving the crown prince to supervise the country, our old ministers will do our best to assist. However, the crown prince is dazed and rebellious, first causing the Tuyuhun rebellion, and then causing the Turks to invade Hexi, and even more food. People and teachers went on an expedition to capture the Western Regions. The Anxi Army resisted bravely, and suffered heavy casualties... Zhao Guogong led the world's insightful men to enforce military remonstrance, and put the prince in the position of virtuous people, so as to continue the prosperity of the empire... This time, I am entrusted by Zhao Guogong, the former Come to visit, when will the British Lord return to Chang'an to join us in this grand event?"

Before the Ming and Qing dynasties, the imperial power had not yet reached its true peak, and it was naturally impossible for the emperor to decide everything in the world.In this era, the control of imperial power not only lies in the power of the prime minister and the integrity of the officials, but the most important thing is the "sensation of heaven and man" elaborated and promoted by Dong Zhongshu.

The theme of "Sensorship between Heaven and Man" is "Heaven and man feel each other, and Yin and Yang are in harmony".

As the emperor of the world, or the crown prince of the country, he is the pinnacle of the world, and the emperor is the "son of heaven". His words, deeds, and every move are naturally the easiest to touch the heavens and make them respond.If you are wise, the rivers will be clear and the seas will be calm, the weather will be smooth and the rain will be smooth; if you are faint, the earth will shake and the mountains will shake, and disasters will be frequent.

As long as the king is evil, the heaven will surely send a warning in the form of disaster. At this time, the king must reflect on himself and correct his mistakes, in order to seek forgiveness from the heavens, so that the people of the world will not be poisoned by the disaster.

In short, whenever a disaster occurs, it must be the king's cauldron.

And the invasion of foreign enemies is also a kind of disaster...

Therefore, Guan Long intends to depose the prince of the prison on this charge, which makes sense in the etiquette and law.In everything, we must pay attention to a "name is justified", otherwise it will be "the teacher is unknown, and the accident will not succeed", which is unpopular.

Throughout the ages, no matter what the real motive is, you have to find a high-sounding excuse, and then command the world and invite people to buy people's hearts. Only in this way can the great cause be achieved.Otherwise, it is an act of rebellion. How can Yuwen Shiji use the words of "joint participation in the grand event"?
Cheng Yaojin sneered, shook his head without interrupting, and continued to lower his head to eat and drink.

Li Ji's face was calm, Gu Jing was unwavering, and said indifferently: "Zhao Guogong is really flattered. It's just that His Majesty is still in a coma, and the dragon's body has not healed. If he is disturbed, he will be punished for death. Therefore, who is right in Chang'an City? No, I will not intervene, until the outcome is decided, I will escort Your Majesty back to the Taiji Palace, and everything will be decided by Your Majesty.”

Yuwen Shi and speechless.

Come on, it's already an unchangeable fact that His Majesty's death, everyone is just afraid that the situation will deteriorate completely and the world will be shaken, so they keep quiet and avoid talking about it. Now you actually use this excuse to prevaricate me, isn't it too much?

But he didn't do the same thing. The news of His Majesty's death must not be leaked at this time. Chang'an fought endlessly, and the center collapsed completely. The chaotic situation will no longer be dominated by Guan Long.

Guanlong and Shangxing risked irreversible risks to implement this "remonstrance", how could the clans from all over the world completely disrupt the situation?
That is definitely not in the interests of the Guanlong gate valve...

Since the fact that His Majesty Li Er passed away cannot be exposed, Li Ji's words cannot be refuted.

Yuwen Shi changed his perspective and tried to persuade: "Now Guanzhong is fighting endlessly, both sides suffered heavy casualties and life was ruined, and the capital of Emperor Nuo is in ruins and will soon be destroyed. And the spring ploughing is imminent, if this war cannot be ended soon, the farming season will be delayed. When there is no food in Guanzhong in the autumn, I don’t know how many people will die of cold and starvation. The British prince is the head and assistant of the country, how can he watch the people die and remain indifferent? As long as you stand on the side of justice and return to Chang’an, the East Palace will be despairing. , we will give up our weapons and surrender. At that time, we will choose a worthy prince to support, who will become the emperor in the future, and will also benefit the common people and continue the prosperous era of Zhenguan. His merits will surely hang down in history."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Yaojin, who was on the side, chewed and swallowed the sauce in his mouth, took a sip of wine, and sneered: "Choose a virtuous prince? Haha, haven't you all already made your choice, where do you need a great commander to bother. You said that the war was started by you, the soldiers were killed and wounded because of you, and the people were ruined because of you, but how can I hear it, it seems that if the commander does not agree with you and does not join in with you, what will happen to the people in this pass? Sin has become the responsibility of the commander? In the past, I admired Duke Ying as an honorable minister of the country, and he was highly respected, but now I found out that it was just for the benefit of power and confounding black and white. No wonder Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty encountered Yu Wenhua and murdered him. You have no loyalty to other ministers. Instead, you abandoned your wife and son to go to Guanzhong, and you have become the founding minister of Li Tang... Hehe, it is said that you met Princess Nanyang in Luoyang back then and wanted to get back together, but Princess Nanyang was angry with you. Rebuke it, dare to ask if there is such a thing?"

People in the world say he is rude and reckless, but in fact he has a splendid heart and is very measured in his words and actions.However, Yuwen Shi and the words in front of him completely angered him, and was very contemptuous.

Rebellion is a rebellion. It’s not wrong to find a high-sounding excuse, but since you are a lobbyist, you want to persuade Li Ji to form an alliance with Guan Long, but you are still talking nonsense with your eyes open here, who are you making a fool of? ?

Yuwen Shi and a well-maintained pair instantly turned red, as if bloodshot, and glared angrily, slapped the table with a "slap", and yelled angrily, "Bastard! What's your status to dare to talk to this old man like this?"

It stands to reason that he has been in the court all his life and has gone through two dynasties. He has long cultivated a temperament that is indifferent to joy and anger, and will definitely not be angry and angry because of some disrespectful words.

But Cheng Yaojin's remarks directly pierced the most embarrassing and stinging part of his heart, making him unbearable.

Can Cheng Yaojin be afraid of him?

"Snapped!"

Cheng Yaojin also patted the table, his eyes rounded like copper bells, and glared angrily: "I'm not a gentleman, but I'm not a villain who tells right and wrong and confuses black and white, dare to ask Duke Ying, what sentence do I have? Can't it be fabricated out of thin air? Since you can do such a thing as abandoning your wife and children, is it possible that you still want to stop the mouths of the world?"

"boom!"

Yuwen Shiji overturned the table in front of him, ignoring the spilled tea and the broken tea set, he stood up and clenched his fists at Li Ji, his voice trembling with anger: "It's the old man's rudeness, I hope the British gentleman is not to blame, but the old man has no face left. Here, I will return to Chang'an, farewell!"

Li Ji hurriedly stood up to keep him: "Why does Duke Ying do this..."

Yuwen Shiji didn't say a word, he had already turned around and walked out. There was a commotion, followed by the sound of horses' hooves, but he didn't stop for a moment, and set off for Chang'an...

Inside the house, Li Ji looked at the messy tables of tea sets on the ground, glared at Cheng Yaojin, and said helplessly, "He didn't want to form an alliance with me, and he came here just to pretend, trying to find an excuse. When you go back to do business, why do you give this excuse to others? It's really stupid."

Cheng Yaojin originally thought that Li Ji would reprimand him, blaming him for being angry with Yuwen Shiji, but unexpectedly Li Ji said such words... Yuwen Shiji was unwilling to form an alliance with Li Ji?
