Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 4210
Li Zhi had a secret talk with Wang Shoushi, and asked him to send someone to keep an eye on Qiu Xinggong and Xue Wanche. After all, he was not afraid of ten thousand, but just in case. ", then Jin Wang's lineage will be wiped out, and there is absolutely no reason for them to be spared...

Fortunately, Wang Shoushi has been hidden in the darkness for decades, and has successively undertaken the important task of training secret spies and training dead soldiers by the emperors of Gaozu and Xiandi.

Immediately, Li Zhi summoned Xiao Yu and Chu Suiliang to discuss the matter, and handed two letters to them for circulation.

Xiao Yu looked at the letter paper, and his eyes stayed on the words "Temple name Taizong, posthumous name Emperor Wen", sighed faintly, and said in a slightly embarrassing tone: "Your Majesty's life has been full of ups and downs. He was a dandy when he was young, he worked hard when he was young, and he became an emperor when he was middle-aged. , the meritorious service, the name goes down in history... In the end, it is just these few numbers, covering a lifetime."

No matter whether you are an emperor, a general, or a rich man in the world, you still can't get rid of the limit of life and death. The grass and trees in the world are not like the eternal stars, and there is a kind of loneliness and desolation of "the emperor's hegemony is nothing more than a piece of loess"...

"Humph!" Li Zhi snorted angrily, and said angrily, "It's nonsense! The prince is also unfilial. His father's achievements in his life are rare throughout the ages, and his literary and military strategies are unparalleled in the world. How could his posthumous title be simply 'Emperor Wen'?" , it makes no sense at all!"

Chu Suiliang was stunned: "What do you think His Highness should do?"

Li Zhi was obviously very concerned about this: "Father is a master of literature and martial arts, and the sky is a genius. The single word 'wen' is biased. We can't let future generations feel the astonishment and beauty of the father!"

Chu Suiliang and Xiao Yu looked at each other and looked at each other.

The so-called "temple name" originated in the Shang Dynasty. The ancestors who made great contributions to the country and deserved to be worshiped forever by their descendants would build temples after their death to enjoy incense, fire and blood.At that time, there were only three kinds of temple names: "Tai" for those who established a foundation, "Gao" for those who made great achievements, and "Zhong" for those who revived.

The Zhou Dynasty did not continue the temple name system of the Shang Dynasty, but only used the posthumous title system, which was abolished after Qin Shihuang ascended the throne. Because this emperor through the ages believed that both the temple title and the posthumous title were to catch up after death, there would inevitably be a "child discussing father". , ministers discussing the monarch" situation is disloyalty and disfilial piety.

Although the system of temple names was restored during the Han Dynasty, they were extremely cautious about adding temple names. Therefore, all the emperors of the Han Dynasty had posthumous names, but very few temple names.Emperor Liu Qi of the Han Dynasty in the famous "Rule of Wenjing" did not have a temple name... From this we can see that the temple name is precious and must be obtained by an emperor with great achievements.

However, during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, the Central Plains were in chaos and the regime changed. Armed forces of various ethnic groups in various places appeared on the stage. In order to flaunt their orthodox status, they completely smashed the principle of using temple names with caution. The honor that every emperor can enjoy.

In addition, before the Tang Dynasty, the monarch was called by the posthumous title, and after the Tang Dynasty, the emperor was called by the temple title...

The establishment of a foundation is called "Tai", so His Majesty Li Er's temple name "Taizong" is worthy of the name, and there is nothing wrong with it, and Li Zhi has no objection.

Among the posthumous titles, "Wen" and "Wu" are both excellent commendatory words, the best choice.At the age of 16, His Majesty Li Er encouraged Emperor Gaozu to rebel against the Sui Dynasty in Jinyang and establish the Great Tang Dynasty. After that, he fought in successive battles and defeated the princes of the Quartet. He made great achievements in the unification of the Tang Dynasty. Goguryeo and other wars can be said to have been separated from the military all his life, or it is more suitable for a posthumous title of "Wu".

But the problem is that the posthumous title of Emperor Gaozu Li Yuan is "Emperor Taiwu", and His Majesty Li Er is his son, so he must avoid it. Naturally, the word "Wu" cannot be used...so the next best thing is to take the posthumous title of "Emperor Wen" as reasonable. .

Seeing that Li Zhi was still angry about this, Xiao Yu comforted him and said: "Nowadays, the thieves are stealing the temple and desecrating the sacred artifacts. Your Highness, please be patient first. When the time comes to counterattack Chang'an in the future and bring order out of chaos, you can naturally treat the late emperor's temple name and posthumous title." If it is changed, who in the world will not accept it?"

No matter how angry you are now, it’s nothing more than incompetent rage. If you have the ability, you can fight back to Chang’an and take it against you, just like your father’s past. When the time comes, you want to give your father any temple name or posthumous title. Who would dare to object?

Li Zhi took it for granted: "It will be changed to Emperor Guangxiao, the great sage of civil and military affairs!"

Chu Suiliang couldn't help but reminded: "Your Highness, could you have forgotten that Emperor Gaozu's posthumous title is 'Emperor Taiwu'. The father and son emperors can't both use the word 'Wu', it needs to be avoided."

Li Zhi snorted, and said: "Then just change the posthumous title of the imperial grandfather? Anyway, although the imperial grandfather has the honor of anti-Sui Litang, in fact, he has no achievements at all and just sits and enjoys his achievements. He is indecisive and unclear about rewards and punishments. Is it worthy of the word "Wu"? From what I see, the posthumous title of 'Emperor Shenyao' is not bad."

The emperor's grandfather's idea of ​​governing the country is slightly the same as that of Yao and Shun when he ruled the country. Yao and Shun were both ancient Ming emperors. If you want to use this as a posthumous posthumous title, you will not wrong the emperor's grandfather...

Chu Suiliang turned pale with shock: "How can Your Highness do this? There will be heated discussions and criticism from all over the world!"

Xiao Yu was silent.

To this day, those civil servants and military generals who followed Emperor Gaozu have long since withered away. Even Yuwen scholars and those who were close to Emperor Gaozu have already become His Majesty Li Er's confidantes. Even if someone wants to change Emperor Gaozu's posthumous title, they will not How many people will stand up against it.

On the contrary, if the word "civil and military" can be added to His Majesty Li Er's posthumous title, it can be said to be the most beautiful posthumous posthumous title in the ages.

His Royal Highness King Jin obviously has a grasp of people's hearts far beyond his military strategy...

Wang Shoushi appeared at the door at this moment, and asked softly: "Cui Chengfu asked for an audience, will His Highness accept it?"

Li Zhi hurriedly said: "Please hurry up!"

Seeing Wang Shoushi go out to call for someone, he turned his head to Xiao Yu and Chu Suiliang and said, "The second son of the Cui family in Qinghe is cousin to Cui Dunli. He led a private army from Shandong to help. He knows the situation in Luoyang, so I just asked him how he is doing. Deploy Hangu Pass."

The two nodded, Xiao Yu sighed and said: "The Shandong family has been excluded since the former Sui Dynasty, and they gradually moved away from the court, but they did not sink into depression because of this, but closed their doors to educate their children and study the scriptures. Now the world is not peaceful. With the defeat in Guanlong and the chaos in the south of the Yangtze River, no one can resist the rise of the Shandong aristocratic family."

The general trend of the court, of course, is due to the results of the game between the parties. Some rise, some dormant, and some sink, but in the final analysis, the basis of the game lies in the number of talents in their respective reserves and whether they are excellent.

Talent is the most important thing in any age.

When outstanding people from Shandong emerge in endlessly, even if His Majesty Li Er is resurrected, he can't suppress it anymore...

For a long period of time in the foreseeable future, the Shandong family will enter the power center of the court.

Li Zhi doesn't care about this at all now, as long as he can counterattack Chang'an and seize the throne, he can give up anything and give anything.

Not long after, Cui Chengfu came in to greet him, Li Zhi smiled and invited him to take a seat, and said with a smile: "Shandong children are full of vigor, if all of them are as talented as your Excellency, it is really gratifying."

Cui Chengfu was a little flattered, and said modestly: "Your Highness is too famous, I am ashamed to take it!"

Li Zhidao: "It's not just my king's politeness, it's really your Excellency who led more than [-] troops and civilian husbands to escort countless luggage to successfully cross the Yellow River to Luoyang. This king feels very difficult. Such a feat, this king will never forget it. In the future, we will clarify the world and bring order out of chaos, and we will reward you generously!"

After exchanging greetings, Li Zhi said: "Although there is a letter from E Guogong detailing the situation in Luoyang, since you came from Luoyang, you must have a more detailed grasp of the situation than the letter. You may wish to introduce one or two for us, so as not to worry about the situation in Luoyang." Misjudged and reacted unwisely."

"Here!"

Cui Chengfu was sitting in danger, so he described the situation near Luoyang one by one, and then explained Yu Chigong's methods of blocking the navy along the Yellow River in detail.

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the barracks, Li Zhi, Xiao Yu, and Chu Suiliang were all silent.

After a while, Xiao Yu sighed and said: "It seems that the navy is deliberately slowing down the process, allowing the Shandong army to enter Tongguan, and then only need to stage Luoyang and Hangu Pass, and it will form a trend of catching turtles in a urn, and Tongguan will be completely wiped out. besieged to death."

Yuchigong's blocking method along the river was indeed effective, and it could slow down the advance speed of the navy, but if the navy was determined to stop the Shandong private army from crossing the river at all costs, what would it be like with the fighting power it showed when it defeated Zheng Rentai in Banzhu? Will it be blocked by Yuchi Gong?

Obviously, the Navy is not in a hurry to rush to Mengjindu, and doesn't care about the Shandong private army crossing the river.

The ambition and conspiracy behind it made Xiao Yu shudder...

Chu Suiliang was not well versed in military affairs, and could not understand what Xiao Yu was worried about, but Li Zhi was extremely intelligent and politically gifted, and he understood after a little thought, his face was full of anger caused by being humiliated.

The whole East Palace actually dismissed him and regarded him as a dead bone in the tomb?
Simply deceiving!
