Chapter 874 Li Zhi Thinks He Is More Wise Than Qin Xiaogong
Ever since Ruichun became the governor of Baiqisi, Li Zhi's eyes and ears became clearer.
Zuo Chun, who was beheaded, was not disloyal, but after staying in the position of the governor of Baiqisi for a long time, it is inevitable that he will have a lot of worldly wisdom. Sometimes, these worldly wisdom is made friends with others at work. Some, It was some seemingly insignificant small transactions. After a long time, there were more and more such things. In the end, Bai Qisi, as the eyes and ears of the emperor, was not so sensitive.
For a unit like Baiqisi, the sophistication of the world is earwax, eyewax and other dirt. Although it will not make people deaf and blind, it will eventually hinder it.
Li Zhi's rectification of Baiqisi actually started a long time ago. In the end, Zuo Chun and other senior officials of Baiqisi became obstacles. Therefore, Li Zhi asked Ruichun to kill Zuo Chun and replace him.
The purpose is obvious, he just wants to let Ruichun, Zuo Chun's apprentice, understand one thing, Baiqisi can only obey the emperor, and he can only have the emperor as his master.
Killing Zuo Chun was only the beginning of Ruichun's murder. After Zuo Chun's death, Baiqisi killed six high-ranking governors one after another, including the governor of Chang'an.
No one in Chang'an now knows who the governor of Baiqisi is, just like the people who actually manage Chang'an in Chang'an at this time are the two masters of Chang'an County and Wannian County.
After Yunchu and Wenrou left Chang'an, Chang'an was an undefended area for the emperor. If the emperor felt that there was something wrong with Yunchu and Wenrou at this time, he could take this opportunity to do something to the officials of the two counties. some adjustments.
As a result, the emperor did nothing, which also indicated Chang'an. The two counties of Wannian were still counties under the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and the only object of allegiance of the officials here was the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
If there is any difference between these two counties and other places, the most obvious reason is that they are clean and honest.
However, to Chang'an, the emperor had expected the clean and honest reputation of the two counties in Wannian, so he focused on the governance methods and efficiency of the two counties.
As a result, he got a satisfactory answer. The two counties of Chang'an and Wannian can be regarded as the models of Datang counties in these two aspects.
The emperor naturally wanted to have a deeper understanding, and then he got a whole set of policies and methods for Chang'an and Wannian counties from Baiqisi, as well as the experiences and lessons they summed up.
Among them, the detailed records, the seriousness of the review, and the wonderful response are already close to the Tao in Li Zhi's eyes.
Under normal circumstances, literati would conduct such complicated records and introspection if they were scholars. Unexpectedly, when Yunchu and Wenrou were governing the local area, they would face the entire governance work of Chang'an with a scholarly attitude.
It was because the administration was too careful and complicated that Li Zhicai decisively removed Yunchu from the list of careerists he had constructed, because it is impossible for a person who does this to rebel, let alone a hidden careerist.
Governing a Chang'an city is enough to consume all of Yunchu's time and energy, so where is the extra mood to plot rebellion?
Naturally, the queen can't see this. When she evaluates a person, she first presumes that the person is guilty, and then considers whether the person has been wronged. This can be seen from her behavior after taking power , Even a guy like Di Renjie was thrown into prison, and faced with the cruel officials, he directly confessed the crime he had planned, and then asked for a way out of trouble.
It can be seen that there is no good person in Wu Mei's eyes.
However, it can be seen from the environment in which she grew up that she made a lot of sense in doing so, because from the moment she was born, she basically met no good people.
Growing up in an environment full of wicked and malicious people naturally gave birth to a conclusion similar to Xunzi's on human nature-nature is inherently evil!
People in the Tang Dynasty are almost harsh in their pursuit of Tao. No matter what kind of Tao you pursue, you are willing to die for your own Tao.
In Li Zhi's eyes, what Yunchu pursued was similar to Shang Yang's way of enriching the country and strengthening the army. However, Yunchu fully absorbed Shang Yang's lessons, not only building a good relationship with him, the current emperor, but also taking the initiative to cultivate for the dynasty. The next generation of monarchs.
Only in this way can the Taoism he practiced in Chang'an continue, so that he will not be framed by King Qin Hui for treason immediately after Qin Xiaogong's death like Shang Yang, and he will be divided into five cattle after death, and his body will disappear.
For a while, Li Zhi even felt that he was Yunchu's confidant. In this world, perhaps he was the only one who understood why Yunchu dismissed high-ranking officials and generous salary.
The more he thought about it, the more brilliant Yunchu's image became in his eyes.
Nowadays, the Great Tang Weijia is at home and abroad, and the dynasty has reached an unprecedented height. Even he, the emperor, should be at a time when there is no reference for him, and Yunchu's sudden appearance, for Li Zhi, is somewhat of a The meaning of fate.
"Just keep an eye on him, but don't try to influence him to do things. As long as you do things, no matter good or bad, don't interfere with him. In terms of governance, there is no one better than him in Datang, including, You and I.
Even if it is wrong, he must be tolerant. He is now at the forefront of everyone to explore the way. It is only natural that he accidentally fell into a trap, and it is also the price that Datang must pay for his way forward. "
After Li Zhi thought for a long time, he gave Wu Mei some instructions.
Wu Mei said a little annoyed: "What if he rebelled?"
Li Zhi curled his lips and said, "There are half of the sixteen guards in Chang'an City. Chang'an City's walls have been demolished. In Chang'an City, there are as many as a thousand secret agents of the Baiqi Division. In Chang'an City, I still live in Chang'an City. The famous ministers and generals mentioned above, not to mention the officials in Chang'an City, were all sent by me personally... So, before Yunchu pointed his horse at you and me, don't believe in such nonsense as rebellion.
If he, Yunchu, had been able to rebel in such an environment, I can only say that Datang would have lost all of his support. "
Wu Mei sighed and said: "Emperor Taizong wrote to His Majesty the "Emperor Fan", which is very clear, and I can't trust it."
Li Zhi waved his hands irritably and said, "That's because during Emperor Taizong's time, there were all powerful enemies around. Now, if you find an enemy who can be called famous, I will send an army to destroy him.
Of course, the more I trust Yunchu, the more strictly I will monitor him. If you treat me like this, you are also treating him well. In another ten years, I will look back at him. "
Wu Mei said: "Yu Xiurong's chariots and horses are trained to enter the Chinese army, let's go with His Majesty's chariot."
Li Zhi looked at Wu Mei in astonishment and said, "Your son is still in the Yunchu army, and your daughter is still in the Yunchu army. Do you want to use the Yu family as a hostage?"
Wu Mei gritted her teeth and said, "You have to hold onto something."
Li Zhi walked away when he heard the words... He really couldn't understand why Wu Mei had such a strong sense of crisis, or did he not speak clearly?
The giant bear didn't say a word, it looked cute and cute, and followed Li Zhi step by step, wiggling its fat butt. Where Li Zhi went, it followed.
The Yellow River no longer freezes after reaching Puyang. Although the water volume is not as good as in summer and autumn, it is still three miles wide. The river flows gently and is as clear as a pool of blue jade liquid.
The weather in Puyang is warm, and it seldom freezes at the coldest time. Since the emperor wanted to enter Caozhou from Puyang, the local officials and people are building the Yellow River pontoon bridge day and night, so that the emperor's Luan can pass through.
When the weather is warmer, the bamboo here grows greener. However, the giant bear doesn't seem to like the bamboo here very much. Li Zhi took a bite of the bamboo shoot presented by the Puyang government, and felt a bit bitter, so he vomited it out.
Trying to figure out the giant bear's belly, he found that it was a little deflated, so Li Zhi ordered the eunuch to transport more green bamboos and bamboo shoots from Luoyang.
Although the giant bear is greedy, it still cannot do without bamboo.
Xu Jingzong heard that the emperor was transporting bamboo from Luoyang to Puyang on a fast horse. Immediately, he ordered the eunuch in the East Palace who was specially used to inquire about the news in the palace to inquire whether the emperor and the empress had conflicts.
Not long after, Xu Jingzong learned from the eunuch that the emperor and the empress talked a lot today because of the head of Changsun Yan sent back by the crown prince and the news that the Bingling case was closed.
As for the emperor, what the empress talked about is unknown, but after the conversation, the emperor left with a sullen face, and after the emperor left, the empress also returned to the living room with a sullen face.
Then, the emperor took the giant bear to eat bamboo. As a result, the giant bear didn't seem to like eating the bamboo presented by the Puyang government. Then, there was an order to send a fast horse to deliver bamboo to Puyang.
After Xu Jingzong heard the words, a pair of long eyebrows frowned together.
The daily food of a giant bear is bamboo, and the bamboo shoots need as much as [-] catties. The emperor would rather provoke the impeachment of the censor, but also spend a lot of money and a lot of manpower to transport bamboo for thousands of miles, really just to satisfy the giant bear. appetite?
Only when the emperor had a dispute with the queen and angered the emperor, would the emperor treat the giant bear desperately.
Although this sentence sounds outrageous, Xu Jingzong firmly believes that it is so!There was a dispute between the emperor and the empress. At this time, Prince Li Hong had to come back. After careful consideration, he decided whether to obey the emperor or comfort the empress. In short, it should be done from the perspective of the greatest benefit.
He said to the eunuch: "Send the prince a message, please leave Yunchu's army and rush back to Puyang on Qingqi."
After Yunchu's army arrived in Bianzhou, the city actually looked weak, not only the city was lifeless, even the people in the city seemed sick and weak.
There are basically not many goods for sale in the market, and the shop workers are not very energetic, sitting in the shop and yawning weakly.
The emperor stayed in Bianzhou for a full 23 days. During these 23 days, the accompanying civil and military officials and family members bought almost all the things that could be bought in the city.
Especially after hearing that some thieves were preparing to flood Bianzhou City with flood waters, those high-ranking officials and nobles were like locusts, almost evacuating Bianzhou City.
Nowadays, the price of goods in Bianzhou city is high, especially for rice and grain, and there is no market for it.
Li Si laughed while eating, and occasionally let out a creepy smirk.
Yunchu took a sip of the soup to rinse his mouth, and after swallowing the soup, he said to Li Si, "Twelve dollars for a bucket of wheat!"
Li Si, who was drinking the soup, coughed violently, and all the soup in his mouth was spat on Di Guangsi's body without any waste.
Finally stopped coughing, Li Si really wanted to tell Master that selling food like this would not make much money, but found Master's serious face, so he could only sigh and say: "Okay."
