Three days later, Li Liangzuo is still free in the palace, Li Wu and Li Bingchang are still in the prison to reflect, these three days, there are many people to intercede for the two, there is no doubt that the plea is fruitless, but Li Liangzuo scolded him, Li Liangzuo's various performances are very weird, the two sons are thrown into the prison and ignored, and no one is allowed to visit, giving people a feeling of tiger poison eating children.
There may be only one person in the Great Xia Kingdom who understands Li Liangzuo's thoughts, and this person is Li Liangzuo's imperial uncle Wei Ge Ning Ling, who is now over sixty years old, and he is already a long-lived person in this era; Since Li Liangzuo took power, almost all the government affairs of the Great Xia Kingdom have been handed over to the Wei Ge Ning Ling, and the status of the Wei Ge Ning Ling in the Great Xia State can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person.
Wei Ge Ningling slowly came to Li Xiaoren's study, and when he saw Wei Ge Ningling coming in, Li Xiaoren immediately saluted and said, "Dad, it's so late, why are you here." ” "Why can't you figure it out?"
asked Wei Ge Ningling to Li Xiaoren.
Li Xiaoren sat cross-legged on the side, his face was not very pleasant, Wei Ge Ning Ling smiled and sat down opposite Li Xiaoren and said: "You still have too little political experience, Your Majesty didn't see his purpose in doing this?"
"Purpose, what purpose can there be, isn't it just to look at the fact that he didn't take down the Nabarian Department according to his expectations, and let us be angry with us, let us be green leaves to set off his son."
Li Xiaoren said angrily.
Wei Ge Ning Ling smiled and said: "Son, you are looking at things too shallowly, using this battle to suppress you is just an excuse for Your Majesty, even if there is no such battle, Your Majesty will find other excuses, as for foiling the two princes, it is just incidental." ” "A child wants to listen to his father."
Li Xiaoren said respectfully.
Wei Ge Ningling asked Li Xiaoren: "Then tell me, what is the current situation in the court?"
"The situation in the court is quite stable, but it has been roughly divided into two factions, one is our party faction headed by my father, and the other is the Han official faction headed by Zhou Wentai.
Li Xiaoren analyzed.
"That's a good point."
Wei Ge Ning said with satisfaction; "But you can see that no, although Your Majesty has been vigorously promoting our own clan in the army, he has been vigorously promoting Han officials above the officialdom and court, do you know why?"
"The child doesn't know, and he asks his father to teach him."
Li Xiaoren respectfully asked Wei Ge Ning Ling for advice.
Wei Ge Ningling said to Li Xiaoren: "This shows that although Your Majesty reuses Han officials, he has always guarded against them and prevented them from interfering in the affairs of the army. ” "But Dad, since Your Majesty trusts us so much, why is he making a big fuss this time and dismissing all three of us?"
Li Xiaoren said with a questioning face.
"Because Your Majesty feels threatened, and you feel that there is an imbalance between the two factions, Your Majesty is making corrections."
Wei Ge Ning Ling said meaningfully.
"Dad, do you mean that Your Majesty is already jealous of us clansmen," Li Xiaoren asked very skeptically.
Wei Ge Ningling shook his head and said, "Your Majesty is really afraid not of us clansmen, but of me. ” "Dad, how is this possible?"
said Li Xiaoren in surprise; "Dad, you are his own uncle, you have been assisting him conscientiously all these years, and Your Majesty respects you, how can you be jealous?"
"You are right, Your Majesty respects me very much, and he respects me very much."
Wei Ge Ningling said to Li Xiaoren; "But this does not prevent His Majesty from being jealous of me, I have been the administrative envoy for my father for many years, although I have changed my name to the administrative envoy, but everyone knows that in fact, the administrative envoy is the prime minister, and almost all the government affairs of the Great Xia Kingdom have been taken care of by my father over the years, and Your Majesty has only occasionally asked, and most of the officials at all levels below are also promoted and appointed by my father, these can be said to be my father's disciples, and you are the general who holds the border army, and the relationship between my father and Yanzong has become closer and closer in recent years; Although his father did not directly command the army, it was not impossible to mobilize the border army with his father's prestige, so it was considered a father who straddled the military and political worlds, do you say that Your Majesty can not be afraid of your father?"
Wei Ge Ningling's words did not fall, Li Xiaoren was already stunned, these things are facts, but Li Xiaoren has never thought about this aspect, as Wei Ge Ning Ling said, now Wei Ge Ning Ling's position has threatened Li Liangzuo's throne, if Wei Ge Ning Ling raised troops to rebel, even if it was completely pacified in the end, it would be a tragic disaster for the Great Xia Kingdom, and it may also cause the Great Xia Kingdom to collapse from now on.
"Then what is my father going to do?"
asked Li Xiaoren to Wei Ge Ning Ling.
Wei Ge Ning Ling said: "It's very simple, preparing for tomorrow for my father is like Your Majesty resigning from office and recuperating for the rest of your life." ” "Dad, your energy is still so abundant, isn't it too early to resign like this?"
Li Xiaoren said in shock.
Wei Ge Ningling said to Li Xiaoren; "I have made up my mind, and only when I resign, Your Majesty will reuse you again, and in the next period of time, Your Majesty will gradually erase my influence on the court; In fact, this matter is a signal from His Majesty to his father, if it is okay for his father's interest to take the initiative to resign, if he insists on not leaving, then I am afraid that our team will not have a good life in the future, although His Majesty will not hurt the killer, but it is inevitable to secretly make some small means, rather than let the family drive down, it is better to take the initiative to leave. ” "Dad" Li Xiaoren's words have not fallen. was interrupted by Wei Ge Ningling: "Needless to say, my father has already decided, after you are reinstated, lead the troops well, Your Majesty's pace of conquest will not stop, and Your Majesty will not treat you badly if you make more military achievements in the future." ” "The boy wrote it down."
Lee Hyo-in replied.
In the early morning of the next day, on the court of the Great Xia Kingdom, after the ministers finished their salutes, Li Liangzuo sat on the dragon chair; Li Liangzuo looked down at the ministers and said: "Today's court meeting I want to announce that I have thought about things, and in the past few days, some people have been giving me a twist, and some people have even directly advised me to let me release the two princes; I am here to tell you that the prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, and although they are my sons, they have violated military law and must still be dealt with strictly. ” After Li Liangzuo finished speaking, Wei Ge Ningling stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although the two princes are at fault, they also have military exploits; The eldest prince persuaded 50,000 Naiban troops to surrender to Cheng, so that our army occupied the Naiban tribe almost effortlessly; The second prince even persuaded the Qarluq people to surrender to our Great Xia Kingdom, and led the Qarlu cavalry to inflict heavy losses on the army of the Black Khan Dynasty, so that they did not dare to snatch the results from behind; Weichen thought that although the two princes had merits, they also had merits, and their merits outweighed their faults. ” "Then according to Uncle Huang's opinion, what should I do," Li Liangzuo asked Wei Ge Ning Ling.
Wei Ge Ning Ling said: "Meritorious rewards and punishments":
