Dressed as the Queen Mother to grasp the script of a strong country

Chapter 6
In the court hall, the emperor sat on the dragon chair. The young man straightened his body, trying hard to show that he was the emperor of the Jin Dynasty at this moment.

Prince Yong shouted loudly: "Wang Yuan, a bully who goes too far, attacks our court at this time. Let's see if he can come back if I tell him."

The young emperor was shocked and stunned by the shouting.Come to your senses and exhale.

"Just because you still tell him that he has come and gone, isn't it the most ridiculous thing in the world." The eldest prince, Prince Jing, said from the side.

"What's wrong? Are you looking down on me? Are you as good as me?" Prince Yong said disdainfully.

"You'll have to compete to find out if you're good or not." Prince Jing, the eldest prince, said.

"Okay, let's compete. Who is a coward and who is a bastard?" Prince Yong said.

"It's a competition, I'm afraid you won't succeed." Prince Jing said.

"Okay, why are you arguing? What's the use of arguing." Prince Li said beside him.

Prince Gong, who had always appeared here, did not appear here. The death of his son and grandson made this old man who had experienced three dynasties completely fear the imperial power.

Prince Su glanced at the little emperor sitting on the throne, and chuckled in his heart.

The other civil and military ministers in the court were so quiet.It's just the background board in this court.

The young emperor felt very angry. His face became sulky and then calmed down. He grabbed hold of his fists and then let go: "To these princes, am I just a decoration? My ascension to the throne is the result of the efforts of everyone except him, but It is my wish to become a brave and capable monarch like my father and grandfather, and I will definitely become an emperor like my father and grandfather."

After Hongyu reported it, he rushed to the court without stopping. Liang Meng hid in the palace and witnessed everything in the palace.

"This is too much bullying. They are openly bullying a young child."

Liang was dreaming and thinking, his eyes no longer shining, and he was lost in memories.

First time in court

In the solemn hall, civil and military officials stood on both sides. Liang Meng led the young emperor onto the dragon chair. When the emperor sat down, Liang Meng slowly walked to the seat behind the curtain and sat down.

When all the officials saw Liang Meng sitting down, they began to discuss in low voices.

"The officials don't know what they are talking about." The emperor asked.

There was a sudden silence.

"Your Majesty, I ask you something, please answer it." Prince Yong said casually.

"I have something unclear, and I hope the Queen Mother will clarify my confusion." He was wearing a purple robe, with a round collar and wide sleeves, a crane sewn on the front, and pure white jade ornaments around his waist.He has a good temperament, with a mustache on his upper lip and a mustache on his chin, giving him the air of a civil servant.

"Prime Minister Zheng, please speak." Liang Meng said while thinking.

The Dajin Dynasty was an entrepreneurial dynasty that only experienced two generations of emperors. Like the modern society where Liang Meng lived, all entrepreneurial dynasties respected warriors. In the Dajin Dynasty, warriors were also respected, and military officials completely suppressed civilian officials. Going on, even successive emperors despised civil servants. Civil servants could not bear the weight of their shoulders, could not lift their hands, and could only rely on their mouths and eloquent words. If they were not polite when facing the enemy, they would be helpless.

How could a dynasty lack civil servants? Zheng Bingzhi, as the head of the entire civil service, had to pay homage to the prime minister in a peaceful and prosperous era. He would be one person below ten thousand people. But at the wrong time, you have to be careful when you see a military attaché. .

The selection of civil servants in Dajin relied on the recommendation of the powerful. Therefore, many people who were determined to serve Dajin could only work as staff in high-ranking families so that they could obtain the recommendation of their masters and become officials in the court.As a dynasty that could only use leather and bamboo to write characters, the vast majority of the people were illiterate and uncivilized. Even the royal family of Daijin did not pay attention to the education of writing. How could they expect the people below to be officials? .

There is only one civilian prime minister in Dajin, who is in charge of hundreds of officials. The hundred officials are headed by the prime minister. After reporting to the prime minister, the prime minister will inform the emperor. There is one person to supervise the censor, and the hundred officials are in charge of supervision.

Daijin's military attache selection is that as long as you are within a certain age, you need to be a soldier of Daijin. As long as you kill the enemy on the battlefield and cut off the enemy's nose and bring it to the commander, you can be promoted to a hundred commanders, a thousand commanders, a general, and a hundred lords. Dan, Qian Dan, Wan Dan, being a warrior of Daikin is the only way for poor people to reach the sky in one step. As long as they risk their lives on the battlefield and kill the enemy, they can shine on the lintel.

For enemy soldiers who were defeated by Dai Jin, they were all incorporated into Dai Jin's army as slaves, or were killed on the spot. At this time, Dai Jin's soldiers would enter the city and rob the people of their wealth, and the people who had been robbed were , and had no choice but to head towards the center of the Sunset Dynasty
In the words of the era when Liang Meng lived, it was really "the king shares the world with the world."

Daikin's grain-producing technology is not developed. Animal husbandry brings ample meat to Daikin. Cold weather makes animal husbandry Daikin's main food. Sufficient meat and skilled riding and archery skills make Daikin's warriors brave and good at fighting. The corruption and weakness of the Sunset Dynasty, the rise of uprising armies, gold and silver wealth, sufficient land, and fertile soil, how could the rulers of Dajin not covet it.

Daijin's food was not enough to supply the surrendered enemy soldiers. Only slaves or killing on the spot could solve the problem of insufficient food.Let enemy soldiers gather COFCO?This is really ridiculous.Tens of thousands of enemy soldiers gathered, and once someone organized, it would be a sharp knife that stabbed Daikin.War is cruel.

As long as the war refugees enter the core area of ​​the Sunset Dynasty, it will lead to chaos in the Sunset Dynasty. If there is not much food to help the refugees, the Sunset Dynasty will be short of food, causing the army to be short of food, and the army will be short of food and then collapse; if there is no relief The refugees will gather together to become bandits, and eventually become a rebel army to overthrow the Sunset Dynasty.

Even without Dai Jin's attack, the Sunset Dynasty would not have been able to escape the collapse of the building. Why didn't the emperor of the Sunset Dynasty eat minced meat? Flattery ministers were in power. Corruption, buying and selling officials became the prevailing trend throughout the Sunset Dynasty, and the people were tortured. Exploited at all levels, people's lives are worse than death, officials are lining their pockets, and corruption is commonplace.

All the tax money has been embezzled by the officials, and the imperial treasury has no silver. When there is a natural or man-made disaster, the imperial court cannot provide food, and the price of food rises. The people will only starve to death and revolt. Once one person holds the banner high, there will be rebellion. More and more people stood up to revolt, but now there was no way to save the day.A dynasty cannot escape its demise like this.Dynasties change, stars change, and new things replace old things. This is the materialism Liang Meng learned in modern times. In the face of the great wheel of history, no matter how regretful it is, it is just a mediocre disturbance.

Liang Meng's thoughts returned to the front of the palace.

"Mother, it seems that she is getting distracted more and more."The emperor thought in his heart.

"I am a humble minister, I wonder if the Empress Dowager's move has the intention of making a fool of herself" from Zheng Bingzhi

The words expressed in his mouth are as upright and upright as his name.

Zheng Bingzhi's words came out of his mouth, and all the officials in the hall held their breath, waiting for the storm to come.

Prince Yong looked at the Queen Mother with unabashed expression of excitement.

"I knew that Prime Minister Zheng's old-fashioned style would not allow a woman to listen to politics behind the curtain. It depends on how the Queen Mother responds."Prince Su smiled sinisterly.

"I, the long-awaited one is finally here. As the emperor of Dajin, even if he is only 12 years old, how can he need a woman to take charge of the government? I have just ascended the throne and my foundation is still shallow. I cannot comment on the behavior of my mother. I hope that Prime Minister Zheng can let the queen come down from the position of listening to the government behind the curtain, so that I can personally take charge of the government."The emperor was planning in his mind.

"Queen Mother, I don't really want a hen to take charge of the morning, but it seems that the Queen Mother is good at listening to politics behind the curtain, and she will definitely take me, Dajin, to a new level."The eldest prince has been impressed by the Queen Mother's wisdom.

Prince Li quietly looked at the expressions of everyone in the hall, waiting for an answer.

"Mr. Zheng, I don't know what you mean by this."

"This ignorant woman doesn't even know how to listen to politics behind the curtain?"Zheng Xiang never expected that the Queen Mother did not refute him, but asked himself what he meant. Zheng Xiang's heart felt as if it was blocked, and a mouthful of old blood choked in his heart.

"I didn't expect that the queen mother would pretend to be stupid."The eldest prince admired the queen mother even more.

Everyone was confused by the Queen Mother's pretending to be stupid and didn't know how to react.

"The meaning of Si Chen is to listen to the government behind the curtain, and it means a woman to interfere in the government affairs."Zheng Xiang explained patiently.

"Are you interrupting? The Aijia didn't interrupt. You guys are talking about yourselves, and I won't interrupt."Liang Meng continued to pretend to be innocent.Dare I say that she listens to politics behind the curtain? I want you to see how powerful I am. "This, this, this... is so inappropriate."Prime Minister Zheng has always followed etiquette and the words of saints, but he was at a loss when he encountered someone who did not follow the rules.

"The Queen Mother, what Prime Minister Zheng said is that the court is a place for men to discuss world affairs. It is really inappropriate for the Queen Mother to enter the palace as a woman."Prince Su said.

"What Prince Su said is true, and I second my opinion."

"The minister agrees..."

"Well, the reason why Aijia is sitting in the palace today is because the emperor is young and is visiting the palace for the first time. Aijia is worried about coming to have a look. Unexpectedly, the ministers reacted hugely and almost regarded Aijia as He is a person who brings disaster to the country and the people, and it is really heartbreaking to mourn his family.”Liang Meng did not expect that just sitting in the court as the Queen Mother would be blocked by the officials of the Jin Dynasty. It can be imagined how low the status of women in the Jin Dynasty was.

"Weak ministers are terrified."All the ministers knelt down.

"My sons and ministers are terrified."The emperor also knelt down.

Although he knew that the status of women in Daikin was low, he was very angry when he encountered her.Reason tells me that there is no benefit in insisting on staying in the court now. A gentleman will not suffer the immediate loss.

The Emperor is not biologically related to her, and he must be wary of my status as Queen Mother and Tuoba's strength. The Emperor would not allow me to have a powerful relative. According to observation, the Emperor is an ambitious person, how could he allow me to do so? Go behind the curtain and listen to politics.

Men have controlled the court for thousands of years, how could the officials let me, a woman, be in the court.

Prince Su is also watching with eager eyes.

We are surrounded on all sides now, so we should retreat.

Even though you are a queen mother, you are bound to be powerless. Everyone is just in the context of a big era. No one, even as noble as an emperor, can turn the tide and resist the giant wheel of the environment with their own strength. All we can do is try our best to move down.

"The late emperor, it's not that I don't help you pay attention to the future of Daikin. You have also seen that your officials, brothers, and sons don't want me to do anything wrong. There is nothing I can do to help," Liang Meng complained to the late emperor in his heart.

Then, Liang Meng slowly walked down the hall and left the palace.

"Wei ministers send their respects to the Queen Mother, and children's ministers send their congratulations to their mother."

"It's hypocritical. You pretend I can't see it. I'm so angry. 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi. Just wait for me."Liang Meng tried his best to leave the palace solemnly.

The eldest prince showed regret in his eyes.

Prince Su, Prince Yong, officials, and the emperor all showed joy on their faces.

Thoughts were flowing, Liang Meng had woken up from his memories, and stared with his eyes as they openly bullied the young emperor, "Okay, the little emperor knows now, without your Queen Mother, you will be bullied."Liang Meng couldn't help but feel a hint of schadenfreude.

in the hall

"The top priority is to identify the person who will fight Wang Yuan, not to quarrel here," Prince Li said solemnly.

"Your Majesty, according to what I have seen, Prince Gong is ill at home. All [-]% of his troops can be reorganized into the rest of the army. The Emperor's [-]% of his troops remain in the imperial city and cannot be mobilized at will. The eldest prince, Prince Yong, Prince Su and the ministers should be We can send troops, [-]% of the troops, commanded by Prince Su, to capture Wang Yuan. As long as Wang Yuan is captured, our Dajin warriors will march straight into the capital of the Sunset Dynasty, and Dajin can unify the world."Prince Li spoke with great ambition.

"I second the proposal..." The ministers and princes reconsidered one after another.

"I also feel that what Prince Li said is true."The emperor had been filled and confused by the vision of unifying the world, and agreed without hesitation.

"You just decided so happily. This is too hasty. Have you never thought about the issue of discord between the generals?" Liang Meng had several horses in his heart.

The sky was gloomy and the cold wind was howling. Hundreds of soldiers in black armor were lined up neatly. From a distance, they looked like large black clouds approaching, solemn and sad.After leaving this time, some soldiers will never be able to return to the hometown where they were raised and never see their parents and relatives.The corpse will accompany the stars of heaven and earth and be nourished by all things.

Liang Meng and the emperor stood together, and the civil and military officials stood on both sides.

The emperor enjoyed this scene very much. Now he was supreme and unequivocal. Only then could he feel that he was a real emperor.

"The battle between Daijin and Sunset is up to you. I hope you will return victorious as soon as possible."The emperor expressed it in an old-fashioned way.

After the emperor finished speaking.Suddenly the soldiers' roars resounded across the sky, "Triumph, triumph, triumph!"

Prince Su stood in front of the soldiers and shouted loudly, "The soldiers of Daijin, who served the country and established immortal achievements for Daijin, should have died on the battlefield, wrapped in horse leather. Soldiers, they will not return unless they win this battle."

"If you don't win, you won't return. If you don't win, you won't return. If you don't win, you won't return." The energy is even more magnificent.

After Prince Su finished speaking, the emperor's face looked very ugly.

"You are just a baby with teeth that haven't grown fully yet, and you still want to act like an emperor in front of me. It's ridiculous."Prince Su said with contempt in his heart.

I saw the back and forth between the two of them.Liang Meng suddenly thought that the death of soldiers in modern society would affect their families, and said: "Dear Jin warriors, please listen to Ai Jia's words. According to the Dajin law, as long as you kill the enemy on the battlefield, you can become an official and a general. Today's warriors We will be rewarded for our efforts.

As the Queen Mother of Daijin, Aijia will do her best to ensure the glory of all our soldiers. All my warriors of Daijin can be promoted to the first level as long as they come back alive. Those who cannot come back will ask their brothers to bring their names back, and the Daijin royal family will provide you with the honor. Build an honorary tomb to be worshiped by the people of Dajin. The family members of all soldiers who died in the battlefield will be honored and raised by Dajin, so that your relatives can be supported in life and have someone to rely on in old age. The mourning family will be honored with the honor of the Queen Mother of Dajin. I will definitely keep the promises made by the Aijia."

The Sunset Dynasty used a selection system to select military officers. The children of aristocratic families monopolized all the resources of the dynasty. The poor people had no room for promotion, so the generals were all playboys. The Sunset Dynasty was really like the setting sun.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, Queen Mother" the soldiers shouted with deep emotion.

The emperor turned to look at Liang Meng, with surprise that turned into fear in an instant.

Prince Su looked at Liang Meng with deep exploration and deep thought.

The eldest prince looked at Liang Meng with deep admiration.

Prince Li looked at Liang Meng with deep confusion.

Prince Yong looked at Liang Meng with surprise.

"Everyone is looking at me for what I am doing. I just said a few words, have I turned into Si Chen again?" Liang Meng thought in confusion, "I am encouraging the soldiers. You see, I am quite successful in this." Why did you do something wrong again? It seems that I will have to keep a low profile and be patient in the future."Liang Meng kept telling herself in her heart.

The horn sounded, and the warriors of Dajin embarked on the journey to the battlefield. They had resolute faces and tall postures. They were wearing battle armor and holding spears in their hands. They lined up neatly and were full of vigor.

Heading towards the Sunset Dynasty, Liang Meng and everyone stood on the city wall and watched the dark soldiers leave.After the battle, several people came back, and they couldn't help but think: "Don't laugh, Lord, lying drunk on the battlefield, how many people have returned from fighting in ancient times."
