"This is not to seize the throne, but to vent anger.

Li Shimin sighed and commented.

After all, if he really acted rationally, then the first thing to do would be to seize the Xuanwu Gate, then seize the palace arsenal, and guard the palace to prevent the imperial army from gathering in crowds to obtain armored soldiers.

Then the elite troops would be mobilized to attack and "protect" the emperor. In this way, the matter would be settled.

At that time, what Wu family, Wu Sansi and his like can't solve it easily?

And taking a step back, even if Li Chongjun is really ignorant, how can the four Forbidden Army leaders following him not understand the importance of Xuanwu Gate?

Especially Li Duozuo, Li Shimin remembered that this person was guarding the Xuanwu Gate during the Shenlong Coup.

Then there is only one explanation: Li Chongjun had a huge hatred for Wu Sansi's manipulation of power, so he forced the leader of the imperial army to follow him and kill Qiu Yu first before taking action.

In just one breath, Li Shimin thought about the matter clearly.

But if he put aside these thoughts and just made his own evaluation, he couldn't help but say:

"Good kill!"

Transferring the power of the emperor, raping the harem and showing off the private house, persecuting the old ministers, and neglecting the East Palace, any of these things are unbearable. In the end, although this descendant acted without much thought, in the face of the scabies of this generation, he drew a knife and spattered blood three feet away. Repaying revenge is enough to satisfy you!

Regarding the younger generation comparing this matter to the Xuanwu Sect incident, everyone else remained silent to avoid suspicion. Empress Changsun didn’t need to care about this, she chuckled and said:

"I'm afraid that all the loyal people inside and outside Li Xian's court have everyone in mind."

Li Shimin snorted softly, accepted the Queen's neither soft nor harsh compliment, then thought for a moment, shook his head and said:

"This Li Xian...has no long-term plans, and does not remember the misfortunes of the past. He is stupid and cowardly. With his wife and daughter in power, he is afraid that something he cannot bear to say will happen."

He takes his descendants for granted, and his words are not polite.

After all, according to his seniority, Li Xian should be called Aweng or Taigong, but he was very restrained in speaking rudely. If Li Xian was in front of him, Li Shimin had no doubt that he would communicate with him.

At this moment, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty felt a little pity that the light curtain did not pass through Li Xianshi, otherwise if he could chase him and scold him, he would be able to vent his anger.

Empress Changsun patted her husband gently to calm down his anger, and then became a little curious:

"It can't be like this, right? And there's that King Xiang..."

Li Shimin sneered and shook his head. He did not comment on the Prime Minister, but explained briefly:

"This Li Chongjun belongs to the Eastern Palace. Although he is not the legitimate son of Empress Wei, he has lost his position due to the insults of his own daughter."

"Since the two saints came to the court..."

Thinking of this, Li Shimin still felt a little sick in his stomach, and felt that none of these juniors had anything to worry about:

"I'm afraid it's natural to have the desire to conquer the dynasty, and I'm afraid I also have the dream of imitating Wu Zhao."

But Li Shimin had unabashed sarcasm on his lips.

With the power of the harem defeated by the imperial army, you still have such a crazy dream?

However, while feeling relieved about Wu Sansi's death, Li Shimin remembered the word used by his younger generation:

"warlord……"

Empress Changsun saw that her husband looked a little distracted, so she knew that he must have many unspeakable thoughts in his heart, so she patted the back of his hand and said:

"For now, let's see how Xuanzong clears up the injustice."

In the past, Li Shimin had often told her about Xuanzong's mediocrity in the harem, but now it seemed that Xuanzong had the appearance of a heroic master when he was young?

[Although Wu Sansi and Wu Chongxun were directly killed by Li Chongjun in exchange for their lives, this chaotic trend did not stop, but intensified.

In fact, after Awu's fall, Li Xian, who had just been in power for less than a month, opened his eyes to the courtiers:

An edict was issued to confer the right to open mansions in Taiping, Anle, Changning, Yicheng, Xindu, Ding'an and Jincheng. The seven princesses were treated as princes.

Opening a mansion means that princesses can appoint their own officials, and these officials can also be recommended to the court, which is a standard shortcut to becoming an official.

It is possible that Yao Chong keenly sensed the disturbing atmosphere from Li Xian's edict, so he shed tears for Wu Zetian and successfully avoided the political storm through external transfer.

The Wu family's talker in the capital was severely weakened after being hacked to death, but Li Xian's wives and daughters gathered together and quickly discussed a new charter:

Rather than leaving the palace to make excuses and play cliques, wouldn't it be faster to make money by directly selling your official position?

In fact, since the emperor's family members did not have the Wu family as a middleman to earn the price difference, they became more and more comfortable in selling their official positions:

Empress Wei was responsible for persuading Li Xian, Shangguan Wan'er was responsible for drafting the imperial edict, and Princess Anle relied on her favor to let Li Xian sign first and then write the content. This was how the upstream was settled.

The princess palace with the power to open a palace, Empress Wei's sister, Shangguan Wan'er's biological mother, Mrs. Peiguo, Shang Gong's Chai family, He Lou family, the witch Fifth Ying'er, Longxi's wife Zhao family, etc. are all located inside and outside Chang'an, opening up the lower reaches. .

In Chang'an at that time, if you could spare 300,000 yuan, you could get an official certificate personally issued by Emperor Li Xian. If you didn't have much money left, spending 30,000 yuan to buy a monk or nun's ultimatum to avoid taxes and corvee was quite a deal. Cost-effective.

Because this special appointment certificate was handed in through the side door of the Zhongshu Provincial Department, and the instructions on it were written in ink instead of Zhu, people at the time also called it "oblique appointment".

It is impossible to test how many Xie Feng officials were issued by Li Xianshi. All we know is that Li Chaoyin, a member of the Ministry of Civil Affairs at that time, was a tough guy. He stopped 1,400 Xie Feng Guan orders by himself, and then he was killed by Princess Anle in less than a year. He was kicked out of Chang'an and demoted.

In addition, when Li Longji founded the Yuan Dynasty, Xianfeng officials had become a chronic problem of redundant officials. In the end, he had to adopt a one-size-fits-all policy, and directly abolished more than 4,000 Xianfeng officials with one edict.

With this money, Li Xian's daughters were the most luxurious at that time: Princess Anle and Princess Changning overhauled the palace in Chang'an. The regulations were similar to those of the imperial palace. In order to build a rockery, they directly occupied people's fields. The rockery stretched for eight or nine miles. At that time, the people of Chang'an went out and thought that Princess Anle had moved Huashan here.

Empress Wei's work was more practical, just adding guards and households to the family's Baode Temple, not much, probably five times the size of Erfeng Zhaoling.

In fact, after laying the groundwork for so long, Queen Wei also began to carefully test her husband's ideas. For example, in 707, Queen Wei followed Wu Zhou's lead and led a large group of people to report to Li Xian, saying that Your Majesty, your achievements like this should be given the honorary title "Ying". "The Godly Dragon Emperor", Li Xian was delighted.

It was easy to do if he agreed, but a few days later the same group of people said that the queen should be given the honorific title "Tianyi Holy Queen". Li Xian continued to agree with a stroke of his pen, not even considering that the abbreviation of the title was exactly the same as Wu Zetian's title of "Queen of Heaven". .

The next year, the whole people of Chang'an heard the news. A group of people with noses and eyes said that there was news from the palace, and colorful auspicious clouds appeared in Queen Wei's wardrobe!

To be honest, this method made Wu Zetian probably laugh to death when she saw it, but Li Xian's response was beyond everyone's expectations:

Li Xian had someone draw it and show it to the ministers, and then happily granted amnesty to the world.

In 709, Li Xian was worshiping heaven in the southern suburbs of Chang'an. Guozi offered wine and suggested that the queen should worship heaven together. Li Xian agreed again and appointed Queen Wei as Yaxian.

Does it sound like Wu Zetian was Ya Xian when Li Zhi was enshrined in Zen? Empress Wei took Awu's book and said it was a copy of the book, and she didn't want to change a word.

The situation at that time was that Empress Wei was busy usurping power, the princesses were busy making money, the oblique and official officials in the court were competing for ecological niches, and the people outside the court were selling their sons and daughters due to successive years of drought.

Li Xian himself rebuked the officials' suggestion to eat in Luoyang: "How can the emperor chase grain?", and at the same time hoped that Luoyang's grain transport ship would come to Chang'an soon.

Our Tang Dynasty is really prosperous. 】

Pang Tong fell silent, looked at Lu Su's slightly raised eyebrows and smiled:

"This Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is better at caring for his wife than his mother. He can be called stupid."

Pang Tong apologized for his previous judgment. It was too insulting to compare Sun Hou with him.

And at this moment, he also agreed with Yide for the first time. Isn't this Li Xian here to show the lower limit of being an emperor?

If someone with this appearance can become an emperor, who in the world cannot be called an emperor?

"Compared to Li Xian, Marquis Sun can be called a Shoucheng Yingzhu."

Lu Su nodded, but then sighed and said:

"Those who suffer are the common people after all. If the emperor has no virtue, the people will be like water and fire."

Of course he doesn't think that the Tang Dynasty is really prosperous, and the irony and ridicule in the younger generation's words can be said to be explicit.

Pang Tong sighed together and agreed:

"If Marquis Sun were in the Tang Dynasty, he could be called Shoucheng. If he was in the Song Dynasty, he could be called the Lord of Ying."

"Does Zijing know that giving birth to a son should be like what Sun Zhongmou lamented?"

Lu Su raised his eyebrows again, feeling that Pang Shiyuan wanted to entertain him?

But the heavy look on his face didn’t seem like he was being fake, so he finally pondered for a moment and asked:

"What's the explanation?"

Just as Pang Tong was about to say something, Kong Ming had already stood up from Zhang Zhongjing and intervened directly:

"It's a happy day today, why are you talking about this disappointing thing?"

"And we can definitely work together to prevent the descendants of China from this disaster."

Kong Ming’s words made Pang Tong agree:

"It's fine if you don't know. Now that you know it, you must find out the method that has been used for hundreds of years to prosper the Han Dynasty, and fix the Jingdong Sea in the northern border to avoid thieves!"

Lu Su wanted to protest. What are you talking about? Why can’t I understand you?

Kong Ming directly pushed some of the things he had just written into Lu Su’s hands:

"Zijing can rely on the history of Jiangdong Medical Clinic to observe its deficiencies and make up for its perfect system."

If Kong Ming directly shared the government affairs, Lu Su would slam the door and leave as a sign of integrity... Oh no, you should read this light curtain first.

But at this time, Kong Ming asked for help as a friend, so Lu Su could only take it, but after just one look, he could no longer look away.

In a short piece of paper, Lu Su seemed to see a huge world.

... A barefoot doctor is required to be a doctor in a village. He does not need to be knowledgeable in medicine. He only needs to be a medical official, prescribing medicines for miscellaneous diseases and treating diseases. If he encounters a serious illness, he will be sent to the county hospital... The barefoot doctor must be literate at least 500 and serve as a doctor for the village. For the enlightenment of young children...

It can be seen that this plan is still a draft, but judging from Lu Su's judgment, it is very feasible!

Lu Su couldn't wait to turn another page. He wanted to see the complete plan, but the paper on the back was smooth and there was not a word that Lu Su couldn't accept:

"Gone?"
