Why is Wu Meiniang's methods so drastic this time?
and Li Zhi, if Li Zhi hadn't nodded in this matter, it would be hard to imagine that Wu Meiniang would do this.At the very least, Li Zhi should be in the know."
By the way, Ami, this time I also heard a statement, it came from the palace, do you want to hear it?"
An Wensheng gently turned his wine glass and raised his eyes to look at Su Dawei.His voice suddenly became very soft, so light that if Su Dawei didn't listen carefully, he would definitely miss it."
You say, I'll listen."
Su Dawei seemed to realize something, nodded to him, and raised his glass."
Some people say that after the Wang family and the Xiao family were deposed, they secretly passed the blood letter to His Majesty, and His Majesty 'took pity on him'.This matter was ...... by Wu Zhao When Empress Wu learned of this, she preempted His Majesty's change of mind and reduced the Wang family and the Xiao family to death. ”A person is a human stick.It was first seen in the "Historical Records", according to Sima Qian's records, when Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, died, Empress Lu cut Liu Bang's favorite Mrs.
Qi into a person, cut off her hands and feet, smoked her deaf ears, gouged out her eyes, and poisoned her with dumb medicine, and threw her into the latrine.Hearing An Wensheng's words, Su Dawei only felt creepy, stood up suddenly, and said sharply: "Who dares to slander like this?"
”An Wensheng looked at Su Dawei's expression carefully, and saw that he didn't seem to be faking, he was really a little angry, and while getting up and pulling him to sit down again, he said: "There will always be some villains who rumor, why be angry." ”"I'm afraid this is not the villain's words, but someone with a heart is arranging it."
Su Dawei didn't continue, but he felt that An Wensheng should understand what he was talking about.In such a big political event as the abolition of Wang Liwu and the abolition of Wang and Empress Wang and the establishment of Wu Meiniang as the new queen, any rumors and rumors cannot be regarded as a simple joke.What's more, there is really such a saying in later generations, saying that Wu Zetian killed Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu and made them into human sticks, which is miserable.But in this era, Su Dawei, who has personally contacted Wu Meiniang and has the same sister and brother as Wu Meiniang, does not believe this statement.Even the hanging of Xiao and Wang, he felt that it might not have been Wu Meiniang's doing.Is it really Li Zhi an ornament?
You, a woman who has just been crowned the queen, an exemplary woman in the six palaces, and have no firm foothold and no roots, what is the need to hang the former queen and the former concubine at this time?
What are the benefits?
How many pairs of eyes were on her.Saying that Wu Meiniang ordered the killing is already extremely insulting to people's IQ, and makes people associate Wu Mei with impulsiveness, irritability, and short-sightedness.As for saying that Wu Meiniang cut Wang and Xiao into sticks, this is not an insult to IQ, it is simply anti-intellectual.Who is so stupid to get to that position?
And the story is the same as that of Empress Lu to Mrs.
Qi in "Historical Records", and she didn't even bother to make up a decent story, which was either stupid or bad.An Wensheng had been paying attention to Su Dawei, and seeing that his anger had not subsided, he smiled and said: "I guess this matter is also nonsense, but I still want to speak out and listen to your opinion, after all, you and Empress Wu ......
The relationship is extraordinary. ”Su Dawei frowned and looked at An Wensheng.I saw him take a sip of wine and continued: "Actually, I don't believe in this matter, although I haven't been in contact with the Empress Wu, but just look at you, she shouldn't be bad." ”"Of course."
Su Dawei glared at him: "What are you talking about?"
Do you think I'm going to befriend someone who is vicious and vicious?
”"Yes, yes, yes, I said the wrong thing, and I punished myself with three glasses."
An Wensheng stretched out his hand to take the wine jug, and Su Dawei scolded him with a smile: "Thief, you stop, you don't need to punish yourself, there are only a few glasses of wine, and I can't drink it if you punish me again." ”After joking, An Wensheng said again: "This time, all the people of the Wang clan and the Xiao clan were exiled to Lingnan by His Majesty, and the surname of the Wang family was changed to 'python' and the Xiao family name was 'Yuan'. ”When these words came out, Su Dawei seemed to be frozen, and his eyes widened in disbelief.I couldn't say a word for a long time.The exile of the whole clan is undoubtedly the handiwork of Li Zhi.Who has the right to do this, and who dares to do this?
Wu Meiniang?
Don't be kidding, without Li Zhi's nod, the queen is just an ornament.I don't see the former queen with the background of the Wang family gate valve and the Guanlong nobles, and she also said that it was abolished.The exile of the whole clan shows how terrible the contradictions have intensified.Moreover, this move can be said to completely ignore the face and influence of the eldest grandson Wuji, and for the eldest grandson Wuji, it can be described as a naked slap in the face.In connection with what I just said, a large number of officials led by Chu Suiliang were demoted and exiled.This is simply the biggest political event in the Yonghui period of the Li Zhi Dynasty, and its influence is even greater than that of Fang Yiai's case.Also, give the two surnames of Wang and Xiao.How much resentment is there to give such a surname?
Python, ......
You taste, you carefully taste.Su Dawei felt a shudder in his heart.I am glad that I was fortunate to go out with the army this time and was not caught in this maelstrom, but I also regretted a little that I couldn't watch my sister Mei Niang defeat the queen and step into the position of the sixth palace.This is a testimony to history."
This day, it has changed."
An Wensheng's words pulled Su Dawei's thoughts back to reality.He tasted the product, nodded and said, "Eldest grandson, you have completely lost your position." ”can do the above, it can be seen how strong and iron-fisted Li Zhi is today.This would have been unthinkable a year ago.Just in the previous year, the eldest grandson Wuji and the Guanlong nobles were still brilliant and rampant in the court.Even with a glance from the eldest grandson Wuji, officials above the fifth grade dared not to discuss the emperor.Because of this, Li Zhi was still angry in the court.It's only been a long time, a year, and the world has been turned upside down.While Su Dawei was secretly frightened, he faintly felt that Li Zhi was powerful, really powerful.Although he had never underestimated this "weak" son of heaven before, judging from the various deeds at present, this majesty can be said to be skillful and has the ability to turn clouds and rain."
Ami, in this incident, what surprised me the most was not the loss of power of the Wang family, not even the loss of power of the eldest grandson and Guan Long, because this is an inevitable thing."
An Wencheng exhaled and turned his wine glass, as if thinking about something difficult to decide."
What surprised me the most was that His Majesty also ......
Xiao Shi" His words were not finished, but they were enough to make Su Dawei think about this matter seriously.Previously, the two largest factions in the court were the Guanlong nobles and the Shandong Wang clan.There are also some Jiangnan scholars.Finally, there are some salted fish characters, who belong to the marginal characters.But after this time, the two most powerful forces, Guan Long and Shandong, were all gestured by Li Zhi, and this blow was not severe.The political signal is also very clear."
The court is also going to change."
Su Dawei took a sip of wine, but he didn't taste anything.He muttered to himself: "If Guan Long and the Xiao clan are suppressed, then new forces will emerge." ”There can be no power vacuum in the court.As a wise emperor, you must know how to balance the way under you.Suppressing the old aristocracy and supporting the new aristocracy who obey their orders is the proper meaning of the title.This move also shows that Li Zhi has officially taken over the authority of the Tang Dynasty.The Guanlong nobles and Shandong wang clans that hung over his head in the past were all overturned by him.The subtext is: I'm having a showdown, it's open.Who is for and who is against?"
Our Majesty is really a master."
Su Dawei pursed his lips and put the wine glass down.A master does not refer to a skillful person, but a skillful resource.Since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the first two generations of kings have been outstanding people.And Li Zhi, as the third emperor of the Tang Dynasty, can be said to be the master of imperial power.It's not the kind of person who usually shows up on the surface and makes everyone vigilant.Really powerful people, just like Li Zhi, are usually inconspicuous, and even in the present and future generations, they will be regarded as "weak".But in fact, Li Zhi usually doesn't make a move, and when he does, he is the king of bombs.Well, it is deeply in line with Taoist principles.Good is like water, you think this water is for drinking, who knows that this is the flooding of the Yellow River.When I really find out, the general trend has been achieved and the overall situation has been decided."
That's amazing."
Su Dawei couldn't help but sigh again.After speaking, he seemed to think of something: "Wensheng, you came to see me, just to tell me this?"
What do you mean?
”An Wensheng's white face was slightly red, and it seemed to be a little twisted, and he reached out for the wine jug, using this action to slightly dissolve the embarrassment."
Actually, it's not just to say this, mainly since I'm here, I'll stop by to see you, and remember your friendship with the Empress Wu, so I'll talk to you about it."
Su Dawei looked at him, smiled, and didn't continue to ask.But in my heart, there was a thought that was unusually clear: An Wensheng was lying!
This kid, I haven't known him for a day or two, and he is just pretending to be a criminal.If you can pretend to be forced, he will say it very plainly.As for things that can't be forced, they are usually skipped.This time, to say "abolish Wang Liwu" in such a strong way violates An Wensheng's personality.In the past, he was very disgusted with the court, and although everything was transparent, he rarely mentioned the affairs of the court.But at the same time, Su Dawei also understood why An Wensheng did this.In the final analysis, An Jia is also one of the nobles in the Tang Army.As the son of the An family, An Wensheng's ease is based on the premise of a stable family power as an endorsement.In this major turmoil in the DPRK situation, Guiru Chu Suiliang was demoted and released.is as strong as the eldest grandson Wuji, and there is a danger of destruction.It is impossible to settle down without worrying about fear.And An Wensheng, as a son-in-law, used to enjoy all the benefits of the family and enjoyed the "freedom" provided by the family.In such a big event, can An stay out of it?
Su Dawei figured it out and understood An Wensheng's situation.No matter how clear the world is, in the times, it is just a small worm, and it is impossible to know the general trend of history as clearly as Su Dawei.Every time there is turmoil in the political situation in the Tang Dynasty, countless heads will fall to the ground, and countless high-ranking families will fall into the dirt.There are also countless upstarts who have taken advantage of the situation.Settle down, as an old nobleman, naturally don't want to fall.And at this time, An Wensheng, who is an idle man, has a role.The An family unexpectedly discovered that An Wensheng, who had been wandering outside the center of power, actually got acquainted with Su Dawei and had a good relationship.And this Su Dawei turned out to be commensurate with the new queen Wu Meiniang, as a sister and brother.If this relationship can be used well, in this turmoil, it is possible that An's will not only not be affected, but may even go further by strengthening the connection with Su Dawei.This time, instead of a disaster, it was a godsend for An's.Blessings and misfortunes are relied upon, and misfortunes and blessings are lurking.Between good and bad, subtle and indescribable.()
