Chapter 4856 Can be big or small
Li Chengqian's expression was a little confused, but more of an anger. The veins on the back of his hands were exposed when he pressed his palms on the table in front of him. His elegant face was a little distorted: "Why do they all think that I can't be the emperor? Today's Tang Dynasty is compared to Zhenguan. Was it more than twice as powerful as that time? The barbarians on the road have surrendered, the territory of thousands of miles at sea, the infrastructure of the states and counties is almost complete, the counties and villages have spread throughout every territory of the Tang Dynasty, the military power of the Tang Dynasty has shocked the world, and the revenue of the national treasury is getting richer every year, why do they still not recognize me? ! ”
Since the day he became the crown prince, he has been open-minded to learn, strict with himself, and devoted himself to becoming a good emperor in the future. However, he has never been recognized by his father. He has tried to change the throne several times, making him the second most noble person in the world. People live in fear and uneasiness all day long, fearing that when they wake up they will receive an edict of deposing them, leaving them with nothing and the sky falling.
When he ascended the throne, he did not love beauty, was not greedy for enjoyment, and did not value luxury. He worked diligently and loved the people, worked hard and worked hard day and night, and made the Tang Empire more prosperous and powerful based on his father.
Why can't you get recognition from those people? !
Fang Jun was also speechless. You have already sat on the throne and ruled the world, why do you care about the approval of so many people?
You are not the Tang Dynasty banknotes or Kaiyuan Tongbao. You cannot be loved and supported by everyone anyway...
"Your Majesty, there is no need to be angry. Since Yan Silu came forward, it means that they are not monolithic. At least the Confucian school headed by the Langya Yan family still recognizes you. Otherwise, they should not be so gentle. Instead of issuing a warning, he took sudden action and tried to subvert the imperial power.”
Yan Zhitui, the head of the previous generation of the Yan family in Langya, can be said to be the greatest Confucian in the world from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Sui Dynasty. Not only did he have unprecedented academic ideas, but he was also an educator with many peaches and plums all over the world. To this day, only those who have achieved something in Confucianism , everyone had experienced the teachings of Yan Zitui at that time, and he was deeply grateful and respectful to him.
In Yan Silu's generation, he was in trouble with Emperor Taizong and followed the dragon's merits. His status became more and more noble, and he had the aura of "slaying the dragon with the sword and commanding the heroes".
Since Yan Silu came forward, it meant that Confucianism adopted a moderate strategy and warned that as long as Li Chengqian made some concessions, drastic measures would definitely not occur that would cause shock to the government and the opposition.
As for what kind of concessions have to be made... given the greed of the aristocratic family, it doesn't take much to think about it.
Li Chengqian rubbed his temples and sighed: "I just can't understand. These people have been beaten over and over again for being dishonest. Now they have lost their power and power. It's just a matter of survival. Where can they find the courage?" Do you have the confidence to challenge me?”
Fang Jun was also helpless: "The aristocratic families have been glorious for too long. Even if they are a little depressed for a while, they still remain in the glory of the west. It is normal not to recognize the reality. But the inheritance of these aristocratic families has been deep-rooted for a long time, and they can only be softened. The tactics are gradually developed and must not be cut off with strong countermeasures, otherwise the world will be in chaos. ”
Li Chengqian waved his hand: "Don't worry, Erlang, I haven't lost my mind yet, and I will not be an enemy of the whole world. It's just that I understand more and more why my father relied on the family members to ascend to the supreme position, but in turn turned against him." Adopting the strategy of suppressing and weakening is really a greedy and self-righteous group of people!”
Fang Jun responded silently.
"Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes." This sentence is really very reasonable, and it speaks volumes about human nature.
What is human nature?
Two words: stay together.
It probably started in primitive society a long time ago. Because of the backwardness of productivity, people had to gather together to resist natural disasters and fight against poisonous snakes and beasts in the face of cruel nature. Therefore, this concept of "more people, greater strength" has long been ingrained in our genes, and has been passed down from generation to generation. passed down from generation to generation.
Now there are aristocratic families, in the future there will be landowners and gentry, in the future there will be warlords, academic lords, and even medical lords... In the final analysis, they are all gathering together to keep warm, gathering sand to form a tower. When an industry or a race unites, it can produce a force thousands of times more powerful than an individual. The sound is enough to destroy heaven and earth and change dynasties.
Right or wrong, this is irreversible.
In fact, human society is driven forward by this constant grouping for warmth, no matter whether it is a bright and smooth road ahead or a cliff...
"Your Majesty, please bear with it for the time being. When the reform of the military system is completed, the army will be completely out of the control of the aristocratic families. No one person or family will be able to put their hands into the army. At that time, all the armies of the Tang Dynasty will be loyal to Your Majesty and loyal to The country, whoever dares to cling to the body of the country and suck blood as in the past is a sinner of China, and everyone will punish him. ”
But now, even if you are the emperor, you have to endure it.
This is the most correct approach. How can we plan for the overall situation if we can't bear it for a while?
But Li Chengqian's reaction was quite fierce. He patted the table in front of him and said angrily: "When I was the prince, I had to endure the aggression of my brothers. When I became the emperor, those rebellious officials and traitors wanted to assassinate the king and usurp the throne." Forbearance, now they You treat me like an emperor and you dare to warn me that you have to endure it! Since you have to endure it when you become an emperor, what is the use of being an emperor? When will this endurance end?" br>
Fang Jun frowned: "When a gentleman is at work, he should hide his weapons and wait for the time to move."
Li Chengqian said: "If we can't use thunderous means, I'm afraid they will push forward and be aggressive. Where is my majesty?"
"Your Majesty is the Nine-Five Supreme Being and the True Dragon Emperor. Can you hear the capabilities of dragons?"
"It's just a legend, I've never seen it in person."
"Cao Mengde once said that a dragon can be big or small, it can rise or disappear. If it is big, it will stir up clouds and spit out mist, while if it is small, it will hide and hide its form. If it is alive, it will soar in the universe, if it is hidden, it will lurk in the waves. Now that spring is deep, the dragon Times have changed, and people have gained their ambition and traveled across the world. ”
Li Chengqian said in surprise: "Cao Mengde said this?"
He had a look on his face that said, "I don't study well, so don't lie to me."
Fang Jun couldn't tell the difference between "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", so he could only bite the bullet and said: "Cao Mengde also said that a hero has great ambitions, a good plan, the opportunity to hide the universe, and the ability to swallow heaven and earth. His Majesty is naturally a hero. Do you think Meng De’s words are wrong? ”
Li Chengqian frowned, looking slightly confused: "That's true, but why don't I remember when Cao Mengde said this? Which book did it come from?"
"Wei Chen has read cart after cart of books. The term "Five Carts of Learned Riches" refers to Chen. How can I remember which book it comes from? Just tell me this, right?"
Li Chengqian was amused by him and sneered: "You are the only one who has learned a lot and is rich? If Hui Shi were still alive, I would be ashamed to be associated with you!"
Then he looked suspiciously up and down at Fang Jun. This guy didn't write much poetry recently, and he occasionally borrowed amazing words from others: "Could it be your new work? Well, well, well, don't tell me, it's different from your previous works." The styles of the works are very different, but the realm has improved. The more I think about it, the more profound it becomes. If I write it down, I will definitely benefit from it! "
The mistress jingling outside the door, wearing a crimson palace skirt, empress Su's skin is more beautiful than snow, her head is full of pearls and jade pendants, she is graceful and gorgeous.
Lian stepped inside with a dignified manner and said with a smile: "The eunuchs outside said that Your Majesty is discussing matters with the Duke of Yue. How can you still be interested in writing? I am here to serve Your Majesty."
After saying that, she asked the accompanying maid to take the pen, ink, paper and inkstone from outside and put them on the imperial desk. Queen Su stood on the side of the imperial desk, rolling up her cuffs with complicated patterns. She wore a green jade bracelet on her bright wrist, which was slender. He held the ink stick with his fingers and slowly ground it. In a short time, he had prepared an inkstone, and then laid out the paper.
Li Chengqian excitedly picked up the brush, dipped it in ink, and urged Fang Jun: "Read it again, I'm afraid I've missed something... That's all, I can't compare to you in poetry, and I can't compare to you in writing, so I won't do anything in front of you. You Come and write!”
He handed the pen to Fang Jun and pushed Fang Jun in front of the imperial case.
Fang Jun took the pen and stood in front of the royal case. He suddenly felt a little embarrassed because he looked like a queen in gorgeous clothes and beautiful appearance was serving him...
Queen Su might have also noticed this, but she didn't say anything and took a step back without leaving a trace.
Keep some distance, everyone feels comfortable...
Fang Jun then picked up a pen and wrote down that paragraph.
Empress Su rarely had the opportunity to watch Fang Jun write. When she saw him picking up and drawing strokes, and the strokes of his pen, her beautiful eyes suddenly sparkled, her lips were slightly parted, and she murmured the words on the paper: "A dragon can be big or small; If it can rise, it can hide. If it is big, it will stir up clouds and spit out mist. If it is small, it will hide its shape...well..."
Why is it a little strange?
These poems are not poems, and the words are not words. What are they written about?
What on earth were the monarch and his ministers talking about just now?
Her pretty snow-white face suddenly turned red, and she glared at Fang Jun with her beautiful eyes. She turned around and gave the emperor a roll of her eyes, turned around, flicked her sleeves and left...
Li Chengqian: "..."
What do you mean?
Are you actually showing my face?
baffling!
Fang Jun concentrated on writing and did not notice anything strange about the Queen. After he finished writing, he blew on the ink stains and said with a smile: "It made Your Majesty laugh, but if Your Majesty can really understand the profound meaning and persist in it, I think it will definitely be beneficial... Eh? Queen? What?”
Only then did I realize that although the scent of malpractice lingered, the man was nowhere to be seen.
Why are you so mysterious?
Li Chengqian didn't take it seriously: "Who knows how to get angry? Only women and villains are difficult to raise!"
He walked closer and observed carefully, and praised: "Erlang's character has become more and more refined, with silver hooks and iron strokes, and strong penmanship. He is no less generous than Wang Youjun!"
Fang Jun rolled his eyes. No matter how conceited he was, he would not dare to compare himself to Wang Xizhi: "Your Majesty praised me so much that I was terrified." The monarch and his ministers were leaning on the imperial desk to exchange their writing experiences. Wang De, the chief servant, walked lightly from outside. He walked in by chance, came to Li Chengqian's side, bowed and whispered: "Your Majesty, many civil servants gathered outside Chengtian Gate, clamoring that they wanted to impeach the navy and the Duke of Yue..."
