The Analects of Righteous Father’s Collapse
Episode 234
"Master, can't you sleep again?"
One night, the man in his house tossed and turned on the bed like pancakes, and Mrs. Lin, who was sleepy after an old age, was unable to fall asleep.
"Madam, you said, have I misunderstood Master Jiang these years?"
According to past preconceptions, Lin Xun should complain about the status of the river flow, leading to the endless struggle of the royal descendants, but since he saw the river change in person, he could no longer look at him with his own eyes. Too.
"Actually, Master Jiang did so much just for self-preservation, eh, blame him only for his success."
Lin Xun sighed, if he is a river, he may not do better than him.
These days he turned back and forth to think about what happened in these years. Although Jiangliu took control of the government, he never had selfishness. He did not embezzle or accept bribes, and he was not favoritism. Since the collapse of the first emperor, the national power has become more prosperous, and natural disasters have rarely happened.
It was during the days when they forced the abolition of the emperor’s pro-government, Chao Chao was chaotic for a while, and the people of Prince Rong’s palace had a brave man who bullied men and women in Yanjing with the help of an emperor. The whole Yanjing City was smoldering.
If you think about it carefully, they accused Jiang Liu of committing vain tyrants, but what did Jiang Liu do have something to do with the traitors. If he was really unfaithful, he could have taken the royal family when the first emperor died. At that time, he was in his heyday, and there were hundreds of thousands of troops behind him. Who could oppose him?
Lin Xun thought more and more guilty, more and more annoyed, and felt that he had wronged a powerful minister who was loyal to the Yang family.
"You said--"
When Lin Xun was about to say something more, he suddenly heard a clamor, as if it had come from afar, and the momentum was not small.
"Adult, adult, it's not good, fight, fight!"
At this time, there was a rapid footstep outside the door, Lin Fu's manager rushed to the bedroom door and shouted.
"What's up?"
Lin Xun's eyelids jumped and couldn't sleep anymore. She got up quickly, put on a smock under his wife's help, and opened the door and went out.
"How come there is firelight?"
He looked at the red light in the southwest and asked in horror.
"It was the fire set by the Imperial Guards. It is said that Prince Li, Prince An, Prince Hui, etc. joined forces and said that General Jiang colluded with the Yi and Qiang people and intended to betray the country. He wanted to arrest General Jiang and convicted him. "
That thing can't help but wipe the sweat on the forehead, what the hell is this?
"Master, how is this good?"
Mrs. Lin couldn't hold her breath, how could she fight, "How could General Jiang be treasonable?"
So many descendants of the Jiang family died in the hands of the Qiang people, and the blood of countless Qiang people was still in the hands of Jiang Liu. At that time, the three princes of the Qiang people still died in the hands of Jiang Liu. How could such a grudge be colluded with? In one piece, this is obviously framed.
"Ridiculous, so ridiculous."
Lin Xun's mind reappeared the scene that the river was biting the veil and the arm was bloody.
The cunning rabbit is dead, the dog is cooking, and the behavior of Yang royalty is still too chilling.
******
For three days, the entire Yanjing City was stained with blood. Ordinary people and Yanjing’s dignitaries were expensive and closed. They were anxious about who wins and loses outside.
It wasn't until the voice of Bing Ge's handover ceased that a group of orderly soldiers started to clean the streets of Yanjing after the war. Only then did someone go out and ask about the situation now.
Prince Li and others were defeated, they thought that more than ten years had passed, and the once eagle should also be old, who knew that Jiangliu might not be reduced that year, and what they did not expect was that the Chaoyang Princess actually stood in the river clearly Over there, with her three thousand elites, the Prince Li and others were caught off guard.
This war has broken many royal family members. When they returned to the dynasty, Lin Xun and others suddenly found that the emperor's selection was suddenly less than half.
However, they could not blame Jiang Liu. Prince Li and others would kill the loyal officials of the Yan Dynasty without evidence. In the case of an apparent death, Jiang Liu had no reason to lay off his hands.
"What now?"
After the bloody battle, the gate of the General’s Mansion was closed again. As for the captured Prince Li and others, they were thrown to the Clan’s Mansion, and Jiang Liu didn’t intend to kill them. What did the other party think? It's hard to understand.
"Or-pick another clever and loyal child from the clansman and teach slowly?"
Some ministers suggested that Jiang Liu had no rebellion at this moment, and apparently had no idea about this position.
"Choose another one, why is it like the emperor?"
There are also objections to picking a little emperor is too risky.
"Such a big thing happened in Yanjing, and the wind will soon spread to the border. The Qiang people have been tempting after years of rest and recuperation. If they are informed of the civil strife in Yanjing, they might be sent out to test immediately. The new emperor must immediately Establish, and the candidate of the new emperor must choose the deterrent to Qiang and other small country tribes."
Lin Xun remained silent until the audience was silent for a long time before speaking hardly.
What he was going to say afterwards violated his education of loyalty and patriotism that he had received for decades, so that he did not know whether his approach was right or wrong.
"The royal family and General Jiang are now in an endless situation. No matter which emperor they support, they will certainly not be able to accommodate General Jiang. In order to protect themselves, General Jiang will not be helpless. Why shouldn't he support General Jiang directly? "
Lin Xun's words caused an uproar. What did he mean by that, to make Jiangliu the emperor, did he just support rebellion?
"General Jiang's name deterred the Qiang people. Once General Jiang ascended the throne, the Qiang people would not dare to act lightly."
Seemingly to comfort himself, Lin Xun added this sentence, "And General Jiang's wife is Princess Chaoyang. As long as Princess Chaoyang's heir is made up as a prince, half of Yan Dynasty is still orthodox."
"Ridiculous, Lin Xun, when did you become a stray dog in the river!"
"Will General Jiang really want to be an emperor?"
"I think it is better to choose the new emperor from the clan."
...
All kinds of remarks flooded the entire room, but it is undeniable that after a fierce psychological struggle, everyone understands that Lin Xun’s suggestions are the best for the Yan Dynasty today.
******
Lin Xun kneeled outside the General Mansion with the courtiers who supported him, and asked Jiangliu to ascend the throne.
On the first day, Jiang Liu did not see them, but sent someone to disperse them.
The next day, Lin Xun and his courtiers knelt outside the General’s Palace again. This time there were more clan members of the Yang family, but most of these clan members were marginal figures of the clan. The civil turmoil, the imperial princes with a little ability in the Yang family have all entangled in. Now these people just want to shake their heads, to please each other before the river flow to the throne, to avoid future liquidation.
On this day, Jiang Liu did not see them again, and still sent people to persuade the team kneeling outside the door.
The waves above Chaotang were getting bigger and bigger, and even the people began to move.
Ordinary old Baixin no matter who is the emperor, they only know that the river flowed during the regency, the country was peaceful, and the other party was a loyal and martyr guarding the border of the Yan Dynasty. Now that the emperor is in the air, the Yang family can’t pick a person who can be used. It is also a matter of course for the river to ascend the throne.
So on the third day, ordinary people asked for help and begged the river to ascend the throne.
This time, Jiangliu wasn't chasing people, but invited Lin Xun into it.
The two had a close conversation for half an hour. When Lin Xun came out of the general's palace, his expression was relieved, and he was a little touched and ashamed. The person guarding the door surrounded him and learned from him that Jiangliu was willing to ascend the throne. .
"General Jiang is not here. He is called the emperor, just for the people."
Lin Xun sighed for a long time, so such a loyal person, why did he mistakenly believe that the other party's ambition is a traitor?
Although the other party called the emperor this time, it was because of their pleading, but the historical records will inevitably write that the rivers and mountains were taken from the hands of the Yang family, and I don’t know how future generations will evaluate. The other party sacrificed for the people. Your own reputation.
Lin Xun sighed again, and later he had to sit down in Shiguan's house, and he could not let future generations misunderstand General Jiang.
The new emperor ascended the throne, there are many cumbersome etiquettes, the river is not the heir to the orthodox royal family, and there are more chores to deal with. Lin Xun and others soon became busy and dealt with these troubles.
*****
"Queen Mother, General Jiang and General Jiang are going to be Emperors!"
Chonghe Palace swept away the gloomy atmosphere of the former little emperor's pro-government, and the whole palace was immersed in joy and joy.
Who is the queen mother? That is the person whom General Jiang loves so much. The other party is just like a princess Chaoyang for the sake of the queen mother. Now that General Jiang is the emperor, what kind of favor will the queen mother give?
Not only the people of Chonghe Palace had this idea, but even Xiao Ruyi thought so.
Perhaps there were many people who said similar things around him, perhaps it was a long time of hypnosis. Xiao Ruyi had long forgotten the plain relationship between her and Jiangliu before she retired, and really regarded herself as the unforgettable white moonlight in his heart.
"I knew it earlier, I knew it like this, I was--"
Xiao Ruyi looked at the bright and bright moon in the sky, biting her lower lip with shyness and annoyance.
I have long known that Jiang Liu can sit in this supreme position. Why did she toss a game and enter the Prince's Mansion now, although Jiang Liu admires her, but after all, the identity between the two is limited, and she does not know what the other party will do. She stayed right beside him.
Her evergreen elder brother has no children yet. Noda’s dynasty can’t live without heirs. Xiao Ruyi couldn’t help but touch her belly. She gave up her man for more than ten years, but she won’t give up the future of the river. Give Chaoyang that proud woman.
******
On the other side, Chaoyang and Xiao Ru intend to think about the same problem.
Jiang Liu is about to ascend the throne. Who will be his queen?
