Emperor Xiaoyao of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 142 Cicada?Mantis?oriole?confusing!
The lion had a lot of wounds, big and small, and Yang Ying felt very distressed when he returned home.Without further ado, Jin Yu picked up the scissors after sending Su Dingfang away.The lion saw Jinyu holding scissors in his hand and looking innocent. It knew exactly what his master wanted to do.Jin Yu directly ignored the lion's pleading eyes, and took off the lion's fur coat between opening and closing, and the lion returned to its former appearance, covering its eyes with its front paws—it's shameless to see people!

The three loli daughter-in-laws of the lion didn't dislike it. Seeing that Jinyu was done with work, they came up to lick all of them, including the wound on the top of the lion's nose, which the lion could not lick by itself.Jin Yu saw it, yes, this time the disinfectant alcohol is also saved, and the saliva disinfection is not painful.

The four wolves killed by the lion were also sent back by Su Dingfang. Jin Yu was not polite, rolled up his sleeves and started to work - peeling the skin and cramping the girls!While wielding the knife, Jin Yu pondered: This wolf fur is a good thing. Make a pair of knee pads and waist protectors for the father-in-law, and make a pair of wolf skin mattresses for the rest. This thing is very good at keeping warm. As for the lion's crime It's okay to be wrong, anyway, it doesn't have the face to go out and wander around like this.

Jin Yu was sweating profusely here, and the little fat Li Tai was not idle either.To put it bluntly, there is no endless feud between Li Tai and Jin Yu. Li Tai just can't let go of Jin Yu and doesn't give him face.The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he felt. He didn't want to kill Jinyu, but just wanted to teach him a lesson and knock him down, just like fighting between children, regardless of severity, but he couldn't kill him, right?If he could really be that cruel, he wouldn't have been exiled to death, and he would have rebelled and sat on the throne like his own father.

Just because the little fat man doesn't want to kill Jin Yu, doesn't mean that others don't, and Chu Xuan is one of them.Logically speaking, Jin Yu doesn't know Chu Xuan, let alone any enmity. Jin Yu doesn't know, but Chu Xuan understands in his heart that all this stems from one person—Chen Xuewen!

Chen Xuewen has fair skin and a feminine appearance, and his nickname is "Chrysanthemum", which Jin Yu doesn't know.Chen Xuewen's character is really not good, but this baby is really smart, and the big secrets will not be known to others, and small mistakes are often made.Qin Qiong had heard about Jin Yu's wedding before, but it was rumored that "Chrysanthemum" had something to do with Li Tai, the fat man, so Qin Qiong let it go.Chen Xuewen's small mistakes were made for Qin Qiong to see. When he felt that Qin Qiong was letting everything he did, he didn't pay attention to Jin Yu, so there was the following scene.

Qin Qiong is not a fearful master who has been in the army for decades. He thought that Chen Xuewen had only some small mistakes, so he turned a deaf ear to it. How could he think that this kid is so courageous?Jin Yu loosened the person to him, without saying a word—stick to death!Firstly, he is not afraid of the little fat man, because there is a genuine prince; secondly, this is a family law, and Li Er can't find Qin Qiong's fault; If Ying is Qin's daughter, if she has the guts to disrespect her, this is her fate!Kill chickens to warn monkeys, so when Jin Yu went again, everyone was respectful and respectful, and he didn't dare to violate it in the slightest.

The backing that Chen Xuewen relies on is none other than Chu Xuan!Chu Xuan is tall and thin, with a black belly and a ruthless, nicknamed "Cucumber". Speaking of which, do you understand the relationship between Chu Xuan and Chen Xuewen?Yes, it is the addiction to broken sleeves!Chu Xuan originally planned to help Chen Xuewen get out of his country, but when he saw that Jin Yu was framed for rebellion, Jin Yu didn't react at all. He mistakenly thought that Jin Yu was a bully, so he planned to help Chen Xuewen get out of his country later, and by the way, he could Being greedy for two dollars, how can you think that Jin Yu is not a good stubble?Therefore, his love "received" disappeared.

To put it bluntly, the biggest mistake here is Chu Xuan, but he doesn't think so, Qin Qiong, he dare not provoke a person who even calls a little fat man uncle, can he be a servant who can figure it out?Besides, Qin Qiong was not necessarily less thoughtful than him, so Chu Xuan aimed all his grievances at Jin Yu.

Jin Yu became Chu Xuan's enemy without knowing it. Seeing that the little fat man had new and old grudges against Jin Yu, Chu Xuan kept trying to sow discord. Various ideas emerged one after another, but all failed.However, Chu Xuan did not give up, and even strengthened his attitude of forbearance. Since all kinds of methods caused Jin Yu a lot of trouble, and Li Er failed to discover himself as the instigator in the end, Li Tai trusted Chu Xuan even more. If there is a plus, follow what you say.

"Ziyuan, you have to think of a way? I can't wait any longer!" Several big basins of ice were placed in the room, but they couldn't stop the heat. The sweat on the little fat man's face continued to flow out. Who made him feel restless? What about walking around all the time?
"King Wei, don't be impatient, if you can't bear it, you can make big plans. It's not the time yet." Chu Xuan was polite, how could he look half-calculating?

"Forbearance! Forbearance! Forbearance! How long do you want this king to endure?" After all, the little fat man is still young, and the child has a relatively obvious temper. His dissatisfaction is not only shown on his face, but also in a bad tone.

"King Wei, Goujian has spent ten years trying his best, but has he ever complained? It has taken four years for His Majesty to wash away the shame of the Weishui Alliance, right? Jin Guitang is just a small earl, why can't King Wei be patient? Wait? Within three years, Ziyuan will definitely let him die without a place to bury him!" Chu Xuan brought out two emperors to compare and educate the little fat man.

The little fat man listened to it this time, stopped, helped Chu Xuan up, and said, "Oh, I'm just worried, and I blamed Ziyuan. I don't know what advice Ziyuan has?"

"Jingui Tang is a man who returned from the west. He doesn't understand the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty. The longer the days, the more mistakes he will make. Someone will continue to collect evidence of his crimes. At present, Jingui Tang Shengguo is in full swing, and he is invincible. When he loses power, he will be you, King Wei. At the moment of the attack, list the evidence of his crimes one by one, and kill him with one blow! He will never recover! At that time, the butcher knife will be in the hands of King Wei, and Jin Guitang will be the fish on the chopping board. Let Wei You have dealt with it, my lord." Chu Xuan spoke out his plan, in fact, since the day Chen Xuewen was executed with a cane, Chu Xuan had done so.

"Okay!" The little fat man was very excited as if he saw Jin Yu kowtowing his head begging for mercy, and said by analogy: "Then the king is waiting for the good news from Ziyuan."

"Through all waters and fires, King Wei will definitely get what he wants!" Chu Xuan gritted his teeth, his face was ferocious, this is indeed what he said in his heart, he is just taking advantage of the little fat man's power to avenge his love "shou" That's all.

When the little fat man was scheming against Jin Yu, his father would never have imagined that his beloved child would have such vicious thoughts, and he was "examining myself three times a day".This has to start from the beginning, hunting, because it involves the number of participants, so even in the ancient times of martial arts, it has to be approved. It is similar to the form of filling out the form now, such as the date of participation, who will participate, and the approximate number of people needed. , go through the approval and filing of Yousi (note that this word is similar to the modern "relevant department", so the most mysterious department now - the relevant department has a lot of background, has a history, and is not original in modern times), and then you can go .

The generals under him all went out to get some air, Li Er was very envious, so he planned to renovate the Luoyang Palace, and go to have fun when he is free.I decided to do it, and Li Er didn't say hello. On the day when Jin Yu brought the lion home (June Yimao in Shi Zai, that is, the 22nd), this matter was not a big deal, but it was a small matter. Not small, so there was that bold jump out to accuse Li Er.

This person is not Wei Zheng who was compared to a mirror by Tang Taizong, but a character rarely recorded in history books——Zhang Xuansu!

Zhang Xuansu heard about it at this time that night, and played it early the next morning. Li Er was very angry after seeing it, because Zhang Xuansu was too upright, and the words he wrote were very merciless, and he accused Luoyang Palace of repairing The matter is not within the scope of Zhang Xuansu's responsibility at all, so Li Er became angry and asked Zhang Xuansu to make a statement in court. In fact, Li Er wanted him to read it out, and then pointed out that it was not his responsibility. Maybe there is no intention of using imperial power to force him to admit his mistakes.

At that time, Zhang Xuansu's position was to serve as a censor, and the scope of duties was: to accept public affairs, and impeachment illegal; sometimes he was ordered to perform tasks such as handling cases and suppressing peasant uprisings.Unexpectedly, Zhang Xuansu was a little bit stubborn, and froze to tell Li Er's mistakes in front of all the officials, without saving any sympathy.Zhang Xuansu came up and asked Li Er: Your Majesty said that the purpose of repairing Luoyang Palace is to have a place to live when visiting Luoyang. Then I would like to ask, has your inspection schedule been fixed?
This tour was a big event at the time, similar to the emperors of all dynasties enshrining Zen, and they had to be prepared in advance. Li Er didn't say hello to his younger brother in advance, so he had no choice but to admit that he was not sure.

Zhang Xuansu is now in good spirits, you dare to repair it first if you are not sure?Is this your first priority as Emperor?The Turks have just been pacified, and you haven’t even approved the money for building a blockhouse as agreed a few days ago. You say you don’t have money for things that benefit the country and the people, but if you build a villa for yourself, you will have money?Do you know Liu Bang, Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty?Why did he move the capital to Chang'an from Luoyang?Is it because Luoyang's military position cannot keep up with Chang'an?It's just a hunting trip, so you can't live for a few days, right?What are you doing to build it magnificently?Is it impossible to move back again?Besides, when Yang Guang was building the palace, I personally experienced it, the wood for the palace was transported from far away, and it took two thousand labors to pull a giant log!At the beginning, wood was used as the wheel, but after a few steps, it caught fire due to friction, so I switched to iron wheels, but the wood was too heavy, and it broke after walking two miles away, so I had to send additional people to replace it at any time with the iron wheels. , Even if it is like this, it will take twenty or thirty miles a day, and a giant log will cost hundreds of thousands of labor!This is only one piece of wood, and you can use your toes to think about the other expenses, so you know how much it will cost, right?How did you bring your brothers to conquer Luoyang?Burn the palace of the Sui Dynasty?This is less than ten years!Why did you do it again when the common people hated it before?Do you want people to complain?Moreover, the treasury of the current imperial court is not as abundant as the Sui Dynasty!If you insist on repairing it, you will follow Yang Guang's old path!Wait for the people to rebel!
Li Er was so angry when he heard that, he wished he could slap this little brother who didn't show him face to death, Li Er gritted his teeth and asked: OK!You guys can do it!You kid said that I am not as good as Yang Guang, how about Xia Jie and Shang Zhou?
Zhang Xuansu has experienced Yang Guang, Dou Jiande, Li Yuan, plus Li Shimin, and he can be regarded as a veteran of the four dynasties. If Li Er doesn't listen this time, then he will confess here today.Seeing Li Er like this, Zhang Xuansu knew that his boss didn't listen to him, so he felt uneasy at the moment, sighed and said: How big was the territory of Xia Jie and Shang Zhou back then?Qin Shihuang has a big territory, right?They built an Efang Palace for themselves, and the old site is still on the edge of Chang'an, isn't it burned?Why?Isn't it because of public grievances?Boss, I beg you to think about it.

Li Er thought about it for a while, and it was also the same reason. Qin Shihuang was so awesome, he died in the second generation?On the contrary, Han Gaozu has been passed down for several generations. He sighed and said, "Oh, I didn't think carefully, and I almost made a big mistake."

But Li Er still couldn't help but turned his head to Fang Xuanling and said: "I thought Luoyang was located in the center of the hall, and the tribute roads from all directions were equal. I wanted to make it more convenient for the common people, so I sent people to build it."What Xuan Su said just now makes sense, let's leave the matter of repairing the Luoyang Palace aside.In the future, even if you have to go to Luoyang for something, you can live in a tent without getting in the way.

Fang Xuanling seized the opportunity to suggest: "Boss, it's not difficult to make the people's transportation convenient. The cement is good. Jingui Tang Zhuangzi used that thing to build a section of road, and it's very strong."

Li Er is doing good things now, and waved his hand: Sure!Brothers, it is not easy for us to start a business together, but the boss made a mistake, only Xuan Su stood up to speak out, and you have to speak up when you have something to do in the future.

Wei Zheng is not stupid, he won't do such a taboo thing, but it doesn't mean he won't do something, so he stood up and said: Xuan Su's words have the power to restore heaven, only a person with a heart of fraternity can Say such sharp words.Wei Chen admires!
Li Er was still remonstrating like a stream, and waved his hand: Zhang Xuansu did a good job, watch and reward!Two hundred bolts of silk!From now on, all the brothers must learn from Xuan Su!

Li Er's younger brothers Shan Hu long live, retreated from the court.Li Er can be regarded as remembering Wei Zheng's words - Zhang Xuansu's words have the power to restore heaven!Since then, Zhang Xuansu has been silent for more than ten years, and he didn't come back until Li Chengqian was very naughty. Don't your words have the power to restore heaven?Educate my son for my father!Wei Zheng dug a small hole for Zhang Xuansu, can't you tell it?Let's jump in`````` (The language of the above description has changed a lot, but the meaning of the expression is roughly the same as that of the history books, just for fun, don't spray)
As far as Wei Zheng is concerned, in the history books, there are more positive appearances, and his achievements are outstanding, which is beyond reproach, but it is hard to say what others can't see in private.He was originally a member of the prince Li Jiancheng, and suggested that Li Jiancheng kill Li Er many times, but Li Jiancheng was soft-hearted and did not attack his own brother. As a result ``````
Wei Zheng is very practical, and Li Er also needs such a person, so they hit it off and got along very happily.In the middle and late stages of Zhenguan, everything became complicated and confusing.Li Ersu suffered from wind disease, which became more and more obvious in the later period of Zhenguan. At this time, Wei Zheng didn't know whether it was intentional or not. Many ministers he recommended were related to Li Chengqian. The most famous ones were Hou Junji and Du Zhenglun. All were clicked.I didn't hear that the minister recommended by Wei Zheng was related to Li Tai, but on the contrary, he left a "Admonition to the King of Wei not to humiliate noble ministers" against Li Tai in the history books, which obviously did not wear a pair of trousers with Li Tai.

Wei Zheng is not as good as Changsun Wuji in standing in line. Brother Changsun only expressed his opinion at the end - he supported Li Zhi, and even mixed with a minister who asked Gu Gu, basically he was under one person and above ten thousand people.However, it can also be seen from the above points that the little fat man's popularity is indeed extremely poor. Except for a few nerds, no one supports him to ascend the throne.

After the disintegration of the dynasty, Li Er left behind Wei Zheng and Xiao Jing. As mentioned in the previous article, Li Er was not very confident in his achievements. The object of this comparison was not others, but his father-in-law—Yang Guang.As for the reasons for saying this, one is the national taxation. As Zhang Xuansu mentioned above, the treasury of the Tang Dynasty was not as full as that of Yang Guang, and many of them were even the foundation laid by Yang Guang; second, he wanted to surpass Yang Guang, because now Many of the ministers used are former ministers of the former Sui Dynasty. They have not made any achievements. Will they be convinced?So he wanted to hear how his subordinates evaluated him.

Xiao Jing is Yang Guang's eldest brother-in-law, although he is not as good as his younger brother Xiao Yu (it is speculated that Xiao Jing should be the half-brother of Xiao Yu and Xiao Empress), but he is superior in being an honest man.Compared with Xiao Yu's upright character, and has offended Li Er many times, Li Er likes Xiao Jing more.This can be seen from the events behind Xiao Jing and Xiao Yu. Xiao Jing "was the servant of the Huangmen in Wu Dezhong, and he was transferred to the secretary supervisor, and he was named the county magistrate of Lanling. He died in Zhenguan and gave it to the Minister of Rites." The word "tired" explains Xiao Jing's down-to-earth, the word "gift" after his death reflects his status in Li Er's heart.

Xiao Yu is different, why can a younger brother have a higher position than his elder brother?Mainly because he is the son-in-law of the Dugu family!His wife is called Cousin Li Yuan.Xiao Yu died of illness at the age of 74.The court often issued a posthumous posthumous title of "Su". Emperor Taizong believed that Xiao Yu's nature was too guessing, and he was too taboo. Finally, the posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous posthumous title was "Zhenxiang Gong".Li Er overturned his father's evaluation of Xiao Yu that "this person should not be lured by generous profits, and should not be feared by torture, he is also a real minister of the country", and felt that it was appropriate for him to go underground to accompany his father. It's not enough to cause trouble for myself, so to a certain extent, Xiao Yu did not get Li Er's approval. (The Dugu family is very interesting. If you are interested, you can look it up. I will dabble a little later in this book)

When the three of them came to the back garden, Li Er pointed to the ingenious designs around him and said: "Adorning the palace and enjoying the pools and terraces are the wishes of all emperors, but what the emperor wants to do is also what the people don't want to do." The emperor wants to indulge in pleasure, but what the people don't want is labor. Confucius said: "Don't do to others what you don't want yourself to do to others." Indeed, labor and harm can't be imposed on the people. I respect the emperor and be rich in the world , It seems that I can do whatever I want, but I can still restrain myself, if the people are not willing, even if I want to do it, in the end I still obey the wishes of the people."

What Li Er said, combined with what Zhang Xuansu said in the court today, how could someone as smart as Wei Zheng not understand?However, Wei Zheng's flattery is more subtle, more tactful, and even more level: "Your Majesty has compassion for the people in his heart, so he always restrains himself and obeys the people. I have heard a saying: 'Those who follow others will prosper. Those who enjoy themselves with others will perish." Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was greedy and extravagant, and he punished him severely for any dissatisfaction. Whenever he went to a place, the first thing the local officials did was to enshrine him. If the things he likes are not offered, he will be very unhappy, and he will not listen to government affairs. Because of Emperor Sui Yang's hobby, officials all over the country intensified, so that they competed with each other. The competition for the imperial court will only end when the imperial court is destroyed. It is because of Sui Yangdi's innocence that God sent an order to His Majesty to replace him. If Your Majesty is satisfied, what you have today is enough; if Your Majesty thinks it is not If you are satisfied, you will not be satisfied even if you have something ten thousand times greater than that.”

When Li Er heard what Wei Zheng said, he was even more enlightened, and said happily: "What Aiqing said is very true. If Wei Aiqing was not there, how could I have heard such pertinent words?"

Now that he was so comfortable, Li Er was in no mood to ask Xiao Jing any more, and asked casually, "Did Xiao Aiqing often see Empress Xiao when she was in the previous dynasty?"

Although Xiao Jing is the son of Liang Ming Emperor Xiao Kui, he was not as good as his younger brother Xiao Yu in the Sui Dynasty. At least Xiao Yu's wife was also called Cousin Yang Guang. I only got it for the sake of the previous dynasty. An empty tube prince of Linhaiwang.Xiao Jing is a down-to-earth person, but it doesn't mean he is stupid. With a wry smile, he replied: "Don't talk about her, I can't even see her children."

Hearing what Xiao Jing said, Wei Zheng remembered something and said, "I heard that Emperor Yang of Sui didn't trust the king of Qi, Yang Hao, and often made people spy on him. Once he heard that the king of Qi was holding a banquet, he would ask : "What did he do to get what he wanted? He is so happy?" If he heard that King Qi was in a bad mood, he would say: "What is he thinking? Why is he sad again?" This is still the case between father and son, let alone What about Lord Xiao?" (Qi Wang Yang Hao is the son of Yang Guang and Queen Xiao)
After hearing this, Li Er said with a smile: "It seems that Yang Zhengdao is much better than his grandfather in this respect. He is not like his grandfather who is suspicious all day long. Are you tired?"

What Wei Zheng said was fair, but it was unavoidable for others to think too much, Xiao Jing thought that Wei Zheng had relieved him, and he was also showing his favor to him implicitly.

After Li Er asked the two to retreat, he sat alone on the stone bench and pondered. Is Wei Zheng implying that I pay too little attention to my son?Wei Zheng shouldn't be such a person?Maybe I'm overthinking it.Li Er laughed at himself, stood up and walked towards the harem.

If Li Er started to pay more attention to his sons at this time, maybe there would not be so many stories later, and he would not have to worry a lot, and by the way, he would be able to play for two more years.But history is like this, uneasy behaviors will bring about a series of changes, so the little fat Li Tai has more space to accumulate more evidence against Jin Yu, and the story becomes more and more interesting.` `````
