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

Chapter 251 The King of Wei is humble and does not accept the throne. What can he do?

Li Ang waited for a long time, but did not receive Li Shimin's curse.

But the wait was not in vain. He did not wait for the verbal attack, but he waited for the belt blow.

Seeing Li Ang being pinned to the ground and beaten, no one had any intention of trying to persuade him.

If you beat them, you won't be able to kill many things like this.

Both Qiu Shiliang and Li Xun were full of resentment towards this bastard Li Ang.

According to history, after learning that Li Ang was also involved in the planning of the Manna Incident, Qiu Shiliang and others were very rude to Li Ang and used all kinds of swear words. Li Ang could only bear it silently because of shame and fear, and did not dare to say a word at all.

Qiu Shiliang is already very particular. According to the temper of the eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty, it is true that Qiu Shiliang is a villain and does not care about the faults of adults if Li Ang is alive.

Li Xun was even worse. If Li Shimin didn't bring anyone here, he would know something was wrong when he saw Li Ang walking in, so he put on the green official uniform of an official attendant and fled on horseback. Along the way, he loudly threatened, "What crime am I guilty of and am being demoted!"

He had always been close to the monk Zongmi from Zhongnan Mountain, so after thinking about it, he went to seek refuge. Zongmi wanted to shave Li Xun's hair, dress up as a monk, and hide in the temple. His disciples thought it was inappropriate. Li Xun had no choice but to leave the mountain and planned to go to Fengxiang to seek refuge with Zheng Zhu. However, he was arrested by Zhou Zhizhen and Song Chu, put in shackles and handcuffs, and escorted to the capital.

When he arrived at Kunming Pool, Li Xun was afraid that he would be beaten and humiliated after arriving at the Shence Army, so he said to the people escorting him: "Whoever catches me will be rewarded and rich! I heard that the Forbidden Army was searching everywhere, and they They will definitely take me away. Why not kill me and take my head to the capital!" The person escorting him agreed, so he cut off Li Xun's head and sent it to the capital.

Not only Li Xun, but most of the courtiers who did not participate in the Manna Incident were implicated, let alone those who participated in the incident. For a long time after that, officials from Zhongshu Province and Menxia Province said goodbye to their families when they entered the court, because they might be killed at any time.

After the Ganlu Incident, eunuchs have been firmly in control of the military and political power. The removal, establishment, life and death of monarchs are also in the hands of eunuchs, marking the beginning of the second eunuch era in Chinese history. "Everything in the world is decided by Beisi, and the prime minister just writes documents." Eunuchs "coerced the emperor, looked down upon the prime minister, and bullied the court officials like a piece of grass."

It is quite ridiculous to say that from then on, the eunuch power in the Tang Dynasty was not completely eliminated until the third year of Emperor Zhaozong's reign in the Tang Dynasty by Zhu Quanzhong, who destroyed the Tang Dynasty.

From this point of view, if Li Xun and Qiu Shiliang didn't roll up their sleeves and beat up Li Ang, they would be considered good-tempered.

"Hey, you two are just going to watch like this?" Li Xiaosan was watching the excitement without taking it too seriously, weighing the stick in his hand: "If I were you, I must join in and serve our Emperor."

"The minister never speaks of the emperor's fault." Li Xunyi said sternly. It might be more convincing if you ignore his resentful little eyes.

Qiu Shiliang also turned his head away, not looking at Li Xiaosan, let alone Li Ang, who was kneeling and being beaten.

Frankly speaking, Qiu Shiliang really couldn't do it if he wanted to forgive Li Ang.

Not only did he help Li Ang get rid of Wang Shoucheng, but he worked hard and led the troops honestly, but ended up like this. The emperor thought about getting rid of him every day, so who could bear it?

Li Shimin and Li Xiaosan didn't take action at all, but Li Yu and Li Chun did. These two people had personal grudges and beat Li Ang severely, until Li Ang looked like a pig's head.

Li Ang squinted his eyes and carefully raised his head to look at Li Shimin.

In the end, Lao Li didn't want to talk to him at all. He wouldn't admit that he had such a two-pronged grandson.

I still regret a little now. Is it right or wrong to make Li Ang the emperor in the last dynasty?

But it doesn't matter. This kid Li Ang has more than enough to maintain his success, but not enough to develop, so there is no big problem in letting him maintain his success.

But the current scene in the ninth year of Taihe is much more chaotic than the previous one.

The people of the world have the final say whether Chang'an will be in chaos or not. Emperor Taizong's visit to Taihe in the ninth year undoubtedly gave the eunuchs and courtiers a shot in the arm.

In fact, it is very simple. The eunuchs all felt that they had made a contribution to the rescue and were loyal slaves; while the courtiers felt that they were dedicated to the country and killed the eunuchs. They were extremely loyal ministers, and Emperor Taizong would definitely reward them.

As for the eunuchs, Li Shimin did not order their execution. He just removed their military power and sent them out one by one to become rich men.

Lao Li, the prince of Taiyuan, had such a temper that he could not bear the idea of ​​a slave bullying his master - but he had clear grudges. Since these eunuchs learned that their master wanted to kill them, they still did not attack the emperor and just put him under house arrest. If it becomes a large seal, then one size will be returned to one size. The military power must be lifted. Since ancient times, it has not been heard that domestic slaves can still control the military power of the imperial army for a long time. Later, the military power of the Shence Army was divided into three parts. The emperor personally controlled one army, Zong Zheng controlled one army, and the military general controlled another army.

Li Ang was still the emperor in the year of Taihe, but he was under strict supervision. The courtiers all received the mobile phone and how to use it. If Li Ang behaves in any crazy way, they will go to Datian and report directly to Li Shimin for handling. By then, when Li Xiaosan leads the Anxi Heavenly Soldiers, it will not be up to Li Ang to decide whether they will be beaten into pig heads or dog heads.

After dealing with Li Ang, Li Qing took Lao Li to the Huichang Dynasty of Wuzong Li Yan, the Dazhong Dynasty of Xuanzong Li Chen, and the Xiantong Dynasty of Yizong Li Min.

Both Li Yan and Li Chen were good emperors without any controversy. During his reign, Li Yan deprived the eunuchs of their power, effectively attacked the eunuchs' power, recovered Zhaoyi Town, and weakened the separatist forces of the feudal towns. This was important for stabilizing society and consolidating the Unification has played a positive role. Among them, the "Pingzhaoyi Rebellion" was the last victory of the Tang Dynasty in interfering with the separatist rule of local feudal towns. It had positive significance for improving the authority of the central court of the Tang Dynasty and strengthening its control over local feudal towns.

After the war, the separatist vassal towns in various places resumed obeying the imperial orders, and the Tang Dynasty gained a unified situation. In addition to the vassal town, Li Yan also sent troops to defeat the Uighurs, stabilize Mobei, plan the Western Region, and stabilize the border.

Li Yan also vigorously rectified the rampant Buddhism. He ordered the demolition of Buddhist temples across the country and confiscated a large amount of farmland and temple property. This was known as the "Huichang Dharma Disaster" in history. Under his vigorous campaign, more than 5,000 Buddhist temples were demolished and more than 200,000 monks and nuns were returned to secular life. Don't underestimate those big monks and temples. Monks do not produce, occupy acres of land, and do not perform corvee military service. The tax system of the Tang Dynasty also provided leniency and credits to monks, nuns, and monasteries. More and more people became monks, and the national finance received less revenue. He spent a lot of money, which was completely a abscess in the society of the middle and late Tang Dynasty.

Of course, in the eyes of some groups, Li Yan's image is not very good.

After arriving at the Huichang Dynasty, Li Qing gave Li Yan a genuine elixir of longevity and told him not to ask for immortality. It is better to ask for immortality than to ask for it from me. Li Yan readily expressed that it was no problem, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Qing more than a dozen times, a pious group.

"You see, he has to thank us." Li Qingru said to Li Shimin.

After beheading the Taoist priest Zhao Guizhen, Li Yan regained his strength and began to organize the government.

His personal abilities were sufficient, so Li Shimin didn't bother much.

As for Li Chen, it's even simpler.

Li Chen was the first emperor's uncle in Chinese history and the only emperor's uncle to ascend the throne.

The unlucky guy Yelu Zhongyuan is not included... His method of death cannot be said to be exactly the same as that of Wuzong Li Yan. It can only be said to be a copy and paste.

They all died of poisoning from taking longevity medicine...

Li Chen was diligent in political affairs, rectified the administration of officials, restricted the clan and eunuchs, and rehabilitated most of the officials who died in the Manlu Incident. In terms of external affairs, it defeated Tubo, pacified Saibei, and pacified Annan, and accepted Zhang Yichao, who returned to the Tang Dynasty, and established the Guiyi Army. He is a man of discernment and judgment, and he obeys advice quickly. He is also respectful and frugal, which makes the situation calmer.

Because the country was relatively stable when Li Chen was in power, even until the fall of the Tang Dynasty, people still thought about him endlessly and called him "Little Taizong". Historians call this period the "Government of Dazhong".

Li Chen also received the same treatment as Li Yan and was given a pill of longevity.

He immediately said that Li Chen had half a liter of purine... but before he could finish his words, he was knocked to the ground by Li Xiaosan.

"Damn it, that's my great-uncle!" Li Xiaosan pointed at Li Chen, who was rebelling against Tiangang, and said, "Do you want to be my grandpa?"

Li Chen whispered: "You are worse than me..."

As a result, he was beaten again.

Li Miao was one of the nine types of people. During his reign, he was lazy in political affairs and could not accept advice. There are also wedding banquets and tours. Each trip is lucky, and the retinue often costs tens of thousands, and the cost is incalculable. Not only did Li Min favor and trust the eunuchs, but the prime ministers he appointed, such as Lu Yan and Wei Baoheng, were not his. Bribery within the court, ministers wielding power, and arbitrarily demoting and expelling officials led to successive turmoils in eastern Zhejiang, Annan, Xuzhou, and Sichuan, internal political corruption, and people's livelihood, which ultimately led to the peasant uprising in the late Tang Dynasty that shook the foundation of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Miao's treatment was the same as that of Li Heng and others, as he was a member of the Five Kingdoms Temple. His throne was occupied by Li Chen during the Huichang period. When Li Chen is doing things, Lao Li feels more at ease, and so does Li Qing.

After dealing with this F4, Li Qing took Lao Li to the plane where the last emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Ai of the Tang Dynasty, was.

……

God bless four years, March.

After killing Tang Zhaozong Li Ye, Zhu Quanzhong was unstoppable. Under his instruction, the helpless Li Zhe appointed him as the prime minister, chief minister, and promoted him to the king of Wei. He served as marshal, Taiwei, etc. The duties of Zhongshu Ling, Xuanwu, Xuanyi, Tianping, Huguo and other military envoys for inspection and disposal are still the same. "When entering the court, they will go to the palace with swords and shoes, and they will praise and worship without being named. They also have the orders of Jiuxi", and their remuneration is basically the same. More than the famous Han thief Cao Cao.

Zhu Quanzhong's identity is the reappearance of powerful officials usurping the throne since the Han Dynasty, and his status is only one step away from the position of the Ninth Five-Year Plan.

Emperor Ai of the Tang Dynasty had no real power, and all political affairs were decided by Zhu Quanzhong. During his reign, he actually did not issue any actual government orders. Those imperial edicts issued in his name were actually handled according to Zhu Quanzhong's wishes. As the saying goes, "Current affairs have traitorous ministers, and Emperor Ai cannot control them."

Under Zhu Quanzhong's instruction, the courtiers began to provoke Li Kai to "obey the destiny and respond to the people" and abdicate the throne to Zhu Quanzhong.

Li Zhi had long known that such a day would come, but he didn't expect that this day would come so... late?

According to his thinking, Zhu Quanzhong should have usurped the throne when the late emperor was killed four years ago.

However, the lessons learned from the Sima family are not far away. After all, not everyone is as completely shameless as the Sima family and dares to kill the king in the street. You have to turn off the lights no matter what. Even if you give in, you can't be so impatient.

Under the instigation of the courtiers, Li Jie cautiously stamped his seal on the prepared edict of abdication.

But what Li Zhi didn't expect was that Zhu Quanzhong said, "I have little virtue and little talent, so please ask another great sage to inherit the throne."

Good guy, what about this?
Damn it, you still have a good idea.

But whether it is abdication or normal accession to the throne, three invitations and three resignations are indispensable routines. Even if the emperor died of a normal illness and the prince ascended the throne, he would have to go through such a process, let alone Zhu Quanzhong, who was plotting to usurp the throne?
"The King of Wei is humble and does not accept the throne. What can he do..." Li Tie sighed in the Jiaodian courtyard. His claws were numb now and he didn't know what to do.

"In the past, when Emperor Wen of Wei received Zen, he also asked for three invitations and resigned three times. I thought that the king of Wei was imitating the story of Emperor Wen of Wei. He invited him three times and resigned three times." Jiang Yin stroked his beard beside Li Zhe and began to give him a smile. Li Jie talks about history.

From the historical perspective of that era, the Wei Dynasty and the Han Dynasty were orthodox, so Cao Pi was not as bad as his reputation in later generations. Jiang Yin used Cao Pi as an example, which does not mean he was burying Zhu Quanzhong.

But the example of the Sima family is not very good. If I use the words of the Sima family, I am afraid that Zhu Quanzhong will have to give him a plan afterwards.

"Then let's issue two more edicts..." Li Tong sighed and took another edict and stamped it with the seal.

Jiang Yin carried the imperial edict, walked out of Dejiaodian Courtyard, and came all the way to Prince Wei's Mansion.

Looking at the edict issued by Li Zhe, Zhu Quanzhong couldn't help but sneer.

"The affairs of Yao, Shun and Yu are known today."

In his opinion, abdication is nothing more than Shun forcing Yao, Yu forcing Shun, Tang letting Jie go, and King Wu conquering Zhou. Son of Heaven, whoever has a strong army and strong horse will do it. Now that I have a strong army and strong horse, who dares to disobey?
After discussing the details with his left and right officials, Zhu Quanzhong arranged for the Zen ceremony to be held in Luoyang on the next day.

He also changed his name to Zhu Wen.

Zhu Quanzhong can't do it, it doesn't sound good. Our master in Luoyang is a master. We have nothing but eating and drinking. Who will Quan Zhong show us?
Jiang Yin received Zhu Quanzhong...Zhu Wen's reply, and galloped into Jiaodian Courtyard to report the good news to Li Tie.

Li Zhe sighed and accepted his fate.

He doesn't ask for anything else now, he just wants Zhu Wen to be like Cao Pi treating Liu Xie, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. He doesn't ask for any position as a duke, he just wants him to have a good death.

However, this was destined to be a luxury hope. On February 21 of the following year, Zhu Wen couldn't wait to send an envoy to Caozhou to poison Li Wei.
