Datang Longya

Chapter 1029 Signs of Rebellion

Leng Feng smiled slightly, not surprised.

When chatting with Leng Jing two days ago, Leng Feng had already learned that recently the traditional noble group in Datang had a tendency to split into three parties.The first party opposed the emperor's claim. In their view, the power and discourse power of the state should be in the hands of the aristocratic family and distributed to the people, which is more terrifying than another war.The second party is Tang Jin and other new dignitaries. They choose to support the emperor unconditionally, thinking that doing so will have a good impact on the long-term stability of the Tang Dynasty.

The third party is Leng Jing and others. They may have chosen to not want to help because of their original intentions or for some other purpose.

For the two opposing parties, the third party is the key to win over. Although Xin Xungui has the emperor's backing, as long as the third party joins their camp, the emperor can only put away his own small calculations, honestly Sitting on the throne as his Taiping Emperor.

The power of one or two families will never be seen by the royal family, but if most of the nobles unite, the emperor can only compromise.After all, although the power of the royal family is strong, it is not strong enough to truly oppose these forces.

Hearing Chang Sun Chong talk about this directly, the veins on Tang Jin's neck tensed, and she wished she could stand up and throw Chang Sun Chong out.I am a loyal supporter of the emperor's camp, and I came to Mr.'s house just to pay New Year's greetings.But let Changsun Chong make such a disturbance, I am afraid that the husband will have thoughts about himself.

For Leng Feng, Tang Jin is grateful. Without the support of Leng Feng, Li Jing, and Li Xiaogong, he, a relative of the Tang family, would not be qualified to enter the top of the Tang Dynasty, let alone reach the current height.

He didn't want his husband to look down on him because of this matter.

Wang Xuance stretched out his hand to hold Tang Jin. He didn't understand why Tang Jin, who was usually refined and elegant, became angry so easily today.

Glancing at the angry Tang Jin, Leng Feng didn't care, but asked Chang Sun Chong: "It stands to reason that the old man has not asked about the government for many years, and you can't find the old man if you want to talk about such things. Your purpose what exactly is it?"

If he complained, even if Chang Sun Chong talked to a cow, the effect would be much better than coming to him.No matter what Chang Sun Chong said, Leng Feng could use "no involvement in government affairs" to push it clean.What's more, the head of the Leng family is now Leng Jing, so he should talk to Leng Jing if he has anything to say.

Seeing that Tang Jin and Wang Xuance had no intention of avoiding suspicion, Chang Sun Chong knew that King Xiaoyao would definitely not agree, but he still said, "Sir, you are King Xiaoyao now, and you are still a member of the royal family." Wait for the prince. Although you have no fiefdom, but because of your status as a king with a different surname, the only one who is more noble than you in the world is the empress. Even the prince is shorter in front of you.

As a beneficiary of the aristocratic system, you should know that as long as the policy of decentralization and the people is fully implemented, the first to be eroded is the low-level official position of the county magistrate.The next step is the governor. When this method of public election erodes the court, we nobles will lose all their glory and be reduced to the same starting line as the common people.

You are the King of Xiaoyao, and you are considered the most noble person since the founding of the Tang Dynasty. Leng Jing has inherited your throne. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as this title is still there, your Leng family doesn't even need to fight hard. It can always be passed on as a senior nobleman of the Tang Dynasty.And we, in order not to diminish the title, still need to fight.

Once the aristocratic system becomes a joke, what you have done for the Tang Dynasty and the foundation you built for the Leng family will turn into a bubble one day. Do you think there is anything wrong with what I said? "

Looking at Chang Sun Chong's serious eyes, Leng Feng suddenly recalled the young man holding a book and asking him for questions.At that time, Chang Sun Chong had the same serious eyes, and he treated his studies as his life.Mr. Mingming had already clearly shown a feeling of boredom, but he still asked with a blushing face, without any intention of compromising.

Maybe the members of the eldest grandson's family are very stubborn, they all have the kind of temperament that they don't turn back until they hit the south wall.This is the case with Changsun Wuji, and it is the same with Changsun Chong now.

It's impossible for him not to know that Li Chengqian did this not on a whim, but for a long-term development.The existence of nobles is actually the most dangerous risk factor for a country.In history, apart from Liu Bang and Zhu Yuanzhang, emperors were generally traded in the hands of aristocratic families and ethnic groups. Whoever seized the opportunity would enjoy the throne for several months to hundreds of years.

Li Shimin clearly discovered this, so he suppressed the aristocratic family and promoted new nobles, hoping that future generations can rely on continuous suppression and promotion to block the inevitable change of dynasties.

Li Chengqian also understood this point, but he did it a little harder. In order to completely eliminate the root cause of the turmoil, he even did not hesitate to send all the nobles to the end of decline, including the Li family themselves.

Dare to send the Li family of the royal family to the end, which shows how determined Li Chengqian is.

Now it is the Li family who controls the Tang Dynasty. No matter how Li Chengqian tosses, the remaining nobles have no choice but to obey besides rebellion.In other words, those who disobey may have already planted the seeds of rebellion in their hearts.

Seeing Leng Feng smiling but not speaking, Chang Sun Chong could only drink tea to relieve his embarrassment, and peeled fruit to cover up his inner wavering.

Not only Chang Sun Chong was nervous, but Tang Jin and Wang Xuance were also nervous. The Leng family was the most important one behind the scenes, if Mr. Chang was shaken by what Chang Sun Chong said.
Thinking of this, the two of them slapped their faces almost at the same time, to get rid of their strange thoughts, how could the husband agree?

After appreciating Chang Sun Chong's small movements for a while, Leng Feng felt that it would be better to give him a reply.

"Changsun Chong, I don't ask about government affairs now, and I don't take over family affairs anymore. As for you wanting me to speak out to influence the emperor's decision, it's unrealistic. Li Chengqian is now the emperor, and he only visits me once a year. , for the rest of the time, if the emperor hadn't given the permission to the old man not to salute, the old man would have bowed his head to him. So, if you need anything, it will be more effective to ask the Supreme Emperor than to ask me."

Hearing this answer, Chang Sun Chong's eyes suddenly dimmed.In his opinion, if the emperor wants to change his mind, King Xiaoyao is the best person to persuade him.After all, the emperor's respect for his master was obvious to all in the Tang Dynasty.

As for Xiaoyao Wang's words that he should bow his head to the emperor at ordinary times, in his opinion, it is nonsense.At the time of the multi-country competitive competition, King Xiaoyao did not know why, and repeatedly patted the emperor's neck on the rostrum, causing the emperor to scream.

It is rare to see people who dare to beat the emperor in public!
