Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 236: The Tang Dynasty had regulations that eunuchs were not allowed to refute the emperor

In the first year of Yongzhen's reign, August 4th.

It should be said that starting from Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Yu to Tang Xianzong Li Chun, they were all the kind of emperors who were ambitious from generation to generation.

What's the difference? Li Yu has a good life, and he knows people well and makes good use of them. Although sometimes I am petty and jealous of others, I always maintain a very reasonable and legal attitude. He is neither overly jealous like his father, nor completely decentralized like Liu Chan.

You think he is right, but he is not entirely right. But if you just look at it from Li Yu's perspective, there's nothing wrong with what he did.

The incident of drunken beating of golden branches happened to Li Yu and Guo Ziyi. If this story happened to Lao Zhu, then even if Guo Ziyi was a cat, he would definitely die.

As for Li Shi (kuò), Dezong of the Tang Dynasty...this man was somewhat ambitious and talented, and had a strong legacy of Chongzhen. After tossing and tossing, I finally made it out of the capital for myself.

On the 23rd day of the first lunar month in the 21st year of Zhenyuan, Li Shi, Emperor Dezong of the Tang Dynasty, passed away. The edict was passed down to Prince Li Song, who was named Emperor Shunzong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Song's health was not very good. In the 20th year of Zhenyuan, he was paralyzed in bed due to a stroke and even lost the function of speech. But Tang Dezong Li Shi really didn't dislike him and still made him the prince. He was even in a bad mood because Li Song was seriously ill and could not attend the court, which led to his condition worsening and eventually his death.

However, such an emperor who was paraplegic and dragged his left hand six times and seven right hands began to make determined reforms at the beginning of his accession to the throne.

He immediately activated reformist ministers including Wang Gan and Wang Shuwen, and began the vigorous "Three Antis" movement in an attempt to cure the terminally ill Tang Dynasty.

The so-called "two kings" refer to these two surnamed kings.

The Eight Sima were the eight people who were demoted to state Sima. Two of them appeared many times in Chinese textbooks and were somewhat famous.

Ah, yes, those two unlucky guys, Liu Yuxi and Liu Zongyuan.

The so-called "Bashan Chushui desolate land, abandoned for twenty-three years" is Liu Yuxi's emotion after he was demoted as Lianzhou governor more than 20 years ago because of the "Two Kings and Eight Sima" incident.

The "Little Rock Pond" written by Liu Zongyuan was written by Liu Zongyuan after he was demoted to Yongzhou Sima.

Did it come together immediately?

The three antis are anti-eunuchs, anti-vassals, and anti-corruption.

The first sword was struck at the eunuchs, and all five envoys in the palace and city were abolished.

The so-called "Five Envoys in Palace City", in simple and easy-to-understand sentences, are the "Envoys in Yellow and White Shirts" in "The Charcoal Seller". In addition, the palace staff were reduced and the salaries of 19 people including the chamberlain Guo Zhongzheng were suspended. There was even a plan to take back the power of the imperial army from the eunuchs, and appointed veteran general Fan Xichao as the military commander of the Shence army in the west of Beijing, and Han Tai as the commander of Shence's marching camp.

However, the eunuchs control the military, how could they sit still and wait for death?

"Everyone, issue an edict."

Eunuch Ju Wenzhen looked at Li Song lying on the bed expressionlessly, without any respect in his eyes.

In his eyes, there were only two fools with six left hands, six right hands and seven hemiplegias, and no Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Even he himself is a mutilated man.

"Ho...ho..." Li Song said "hoho" twice.

Ju Wenzhen has been observing words and expressions all year round and has already become a human spirit. Li Song only made two hoohs and he knew what the other party meant.

Li Song's meaning is also very simple. Didn't you issue an edict in my name in July that Crown Prince Li Chun should preside over military and state affairs? Are you so impatient?

"I don't want to do that either. It's just that Wang Shuwen and Wang Gong are still planting party members to oppose the prince, so I have no choice but to take this step."

When Ju Wenzhen said this, he added in a strange way: "Everyone, you don't want to see the prince fail to ascend the throne, right?"

As soon as these words came out, a trace of struggle flashed in Li Song's eyes.

To be honest, Li Yu of Daizong was to Li Shi, Li Shi of Dezong was to Li Song, and Li Song of Shunzong was to Li Chun. They were all truly loving fathers and filial sons. At the beginning of Yongzhen's revolution, Li Song was still willing to believe in Wang Shuwen and Wang Gan. However, Wang Shuwen, Wang Gan and others tried their best to prevent Ju Wenzhen from establishing the crown prince, which gradually made Li Song alienate from them and began to distrust and alienate them.

Li Song's idea is also very simple. My body is in a bad shape, and I don't expect myself to get better. All I do is pave the way for my son. Li Chun is my biological son. What do you mean by preventing him from becoming the prince?

During the process of reform, Wang Shuwen displayed his power, was arbitrary, cultivated party members, and rejected dissidents, which aroused strong opposition inside and outside the court, and also led to Li Song's disgust and dissatisfaction.

Li Song said "ho ho" twice, stretched out his arm with difficulty, and made a "2" sign.

"My slave understands." Ju Wenzhen was overjoyed. Although it was a bit of an attempt to force the emperor into the palace, it was better for the emperor to agree than to resist. In this case, when the new emperor ascends the throne, he will not settle them out of filial piety and righteousness.

"What do you mean...demotion of the second king from the capital?" Ju Wenzhen asked again tentatively.

"Ho ho..." Li Song rolled his eyes and denied Ju Wenzhen's words.

Ju Wenzhen thought for a moment and asked again: "What do you mean...you want two palace servants to serve you?"

"Ho ho!" Li Song's eyes widened, obviously angry at Ju Wenzhen's words.

What the hell are these two palace ladies? I'm already like this, and I'm still a palace servant!

If you misinterpret my meaning again, I will subject you to a second castration!

"Then...then what do you mean?" Ju Wenzhen didn't understand. He was really confused.

You said you stretched out your hand and made a two sign... A normal person would have to think that you are arranging Wang Shuwen and Wang Wan, right?

Liu Guangqi suddenly said from behind: "What do you mean, do you want me to assist the prince and succeed to the throne as soon as possible?"

"Then why is it two?" Ju Wenzhen asked inexplicably. This is obviously the same thing. Why are they comparing each other?

"Because everyone has suffered a stroke, we can only stretch like this..." Liu Guangqi imitated Li Song and made a gesture.

"Ho ho!" Li Song's voice became excited, but his eyes towards Liu Guangqi were not very kind.

Nonsense, he is also an emperor after all. How can you, a eunuch, imitate him?

But Liu Guangqi didn't care too much, as long as he guessed correctly.

"It has to be you, you have a bright mind." Ju Wenzhen looked at Liu Guangqi with satisfaction, "That's it, everyone, let the prince ascend the throne the next day?"

"Ho ho!" Li Song hooed twice.

Ju Wenzhen only thought that he agreed, but she didn't expect that Li Song was not excited because of him, and it wasn't him who was looking at him.

After receiving Li Song's "order", he turned his head happily. When he looked up, he saw the young late emperor Li Shi standing in front of him. Next to him was Emperor Daizong, and several people wearing imperial uniforms, but they couldn't recognize him. A man with a face.

"Big... big..." Ju Wenzhen kept sucking in the cold air. Daizong Li Yu was the emperor with real power. Although he was a little ineffective with the feudal town, he was still very effective with these eunuchs.

After all, both Li Fuguo and Yu Chaoen were destroyed in the hands of this man.

Subsequently, the elite Anxi Iron Army poured into the palace and surrounded the eunuchs to prevent them from jumping over the wall in a hurry. Li Yu did not speak, but walked to his grandson, raised his hand and gave him a pill.

The effect of the elixir is so good that even a stroke patient can recover instantly.

Li Song's feeling now is... But I'm better this year, I can still trot, I can still take steps, I can also jump... Oh, big jump.

He got up from the bed in a hurry. The first thing he did was not to pay tribute to his father and grandfather. Instead, he trotted to Liu Guangqi's side, stretched out his hand and rounded it up to give him a big dick.

"I want you to learn from me? I want you to learn from me?" He stretched out his hand and gestured to the "yeah" he just said, "Bah! Do you still want to learn from me?!"

Liu Guangqi knelt on the ground and sadly admitted his mistake.

"This slave shall be punished by death! This slave shall be punished by death!"

Li Song slapped him twice more, then ran to kneel down in front of Li Yu and Li Shi, who had dark faces on their faces.

"Okay, stop kneeling." Li Yu lifted him up, turned to the direction of Li Shimin and knelt down: "The ones you should kneel on are these people, Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty!"

"Hey... Unfilial grandson has seen Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong..." Li Song kowtowed quickly.

This thing sounds outrageous, but he can't help but not believe that his stroke can be cured instantly and return to the state of a healthy person.

The most important thing was the group of shining tin cans. Li Song had no doubt that these people would have no problem announcing that he was the Jade Emperor on the spot.

Do you expect those controlled eunuchs to object? Stop making trouble, even if you drag out all the Shence Army, they will definitely not be their match.

Li Song felt the momentum of the legendary Anxi Iron Army in this group of iron troops.

His intuition was indeed correct, these people were Anxi Iron Army.

"What's unfilial? Isn't it just a stroke?" Li Shimin motioned to Li Zhi to help him up: "You are very good. Even if you have a stroke, you are still thinking about me, Datang, and I am satisfied."

Can you not be satisfied? Damn Xiao Song's group of normal people, all with beards and tails, with only a corner of their minds, are not as good as this emperor who is paralyzed in bed.

This person is just afraid of comparison.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with Li Song's policy, it's just that haste, waste of time, and others such as Wang Shuwen and Wang Min are just wasteful.

"Your son...your son Li Chun, I have other uses." Li Shimin sighed: "I am not here to cause trouble for you. Generally speaking, you, the emperor, have done a good job. The basic policy is that there is no It’s a problem, but your grandson… just don’t mention it.”

"What's wrong with your grandson's grandson? Which one is it?" Li Song asked cautiously, fearing that the ancestor who enjoyed killing his brothers and brothers would be killed by him because of his grandson's misdeeds.

"Li Heng." Li Shimin stretched his belt in his hand and looked at him unkindly. But suddenly he remembered that Li Heng had not changed his name yet, so he said again: "I forgot, the current Li Heng has not changed his name. He was born in the other hall of Daming Palace in the eleventh year of Zhenyuan. He was the king of Anjun in the early feudal period. His current name should be Li You.”

Li Heng's mother was very powerful and she was Guo Ziyi's granddaughter. This is why he succeeded to the throne of the prince after the death of his eldest brother Li Ning.

"Li You?" Li Song asked cautiously. He thought about it carefully... It shouldn't be. Li You had a very good impression on him. How could Grandpa Taizong treat him like this?

Could it be that...he has done something that is harmful to the country and the people?

"You don't need to know about this matter for the time being." Li Shimin stretched his belt and sneered, "Emperor, just do it first. Within forty or fifty years, don't think about your death. I Said."

After getting Li Shimin's promise of "not dying within forty or fifty years", Li Song's eyes lit up.

How many emperors don’t want to live forever?

You see, if Liu San doesn't cure his illness, he won't cure it. If he really has the opportunity of immortality in front of him, he will never give up.

"Is what Grandpa Taizong said true?" Li Song couldn't think about Li You's problem, all he could think about was immortality.

It’s not his fault. You were obviously waiting to die from a stroke, but now someone suddenly cured your disease and even promised you a longer life. Who wouldn’t be trembling?

"Would I lie to you?" Li Shimin glanced sideways at him.

Li Song laughed along and stopped asking questions, for fear of angering his ancestors.

"What should we do with these eunuchs?" Li Shimin looked around at the trembling eunuchs.

He did not make his own decision, but let Li Song make his own decision.

After all, he was Li Song's man, and Li Shimin felt that he should also take a look at Li Song's determination.

A person's name, the shadow of a tree. No one needs to tell you what kind of person Emperor Taizong is. Everyone here is knowledgeable.

No matter who he is, there are so many tin cans here with spears sticking out of their necks. Even if they are not, they must be.

"It's all up to Grandpa Taizong." Li Song added very righteously: "My grandson believes that eunuchs are monopolizing power and causing chaos in government, and they should be eradicated!"

After Li Song finished speaking, the group of eunuchs were dragged out by the Anxi Iron Cans.

Li Song didn't have a good impression of these eunuchs, and of course he didn't have any bad feelings either.

They are just a group of political opportunists, who have breasts and are mothers. For the sake of his own future, he dared to force himself to appoint Li Chun as the crown prince.

This matter is intolerable to any ambitious emperor. This is why Li Song had a stroke before and was paralyzed in bed unable to move. Otherwise, the custodian would send people to send these speculators away one by one. God.

Of course, if Li Song was not a stroke patient, perhaps these eunuchs would not forcefully support the crown prince Li Chun.

Li Song had no ill feelings toward the prince, and even liked him very much.

He knows his son, who is nearly thirty years old, very well. He has trained him since he was a child. His governance philosophy and political tendencies are almost the same. The father and son can be said to have the same mind and heart. It was not like the eunuchs had never supported others before. They chose King Shu Li Yi, the son of Prince Zhaojing Li Miao - even King Shu Li Yi was just Li Shi's nephew. This was intolerable for an emperor, and this was the main reason why he asked Li Shimin to kill those eunuchs.

To the eunuchs, it didn't matter who was the county magistrate, they just wanted to be the county magistrate's wife.

"The eunuch matter has been resolved, and one of the three major problems of your Yongzhen Dynasty has been eliminated." Li Shimin sat on the dragon chair beside him and looked at Li Song with a burning gaze: "There are still two problems below. One is the feudal town. There is another one who is a crony, how should you solve it?"
