Chapter 794: The barefooted are not afraid of wearing shoes
If Han Yi does this for his own benefit, then it can be said that Han Yi ignores the interests of the boss for his own benefit, which is a taboo for his subjects.
"Sorry! This--I really didn't expect it."
Han Yi said in fear.
Wu Meiniang chuckled softly, "You don't need to apologize. In fact, it's understandable that you do this. I can understand that you really need these. Not only that, I also admire and admire them very much. Those great scholars are not so easy to talk to. I used to try my best to win over them, but I failed to succeed. It is really surprising that you can let them spare no effort to support you. But I hope you can take this into consideration."
Of course she knew that Han Yi did not mean it, because Han Yi has always put his interests first, but she believed in Han Yi's ability too much and felt that if she didn't remind him, Han Yi might really be out of control. If Han Yi didn't care about this, it might have an adverse impact on her. Now it is a critical moment, and she doesn't want to cause trouble.
"Thank you Zhaoyi for your understanding."
Having said that, Han Yi looked embarrassed. He had no way to erase etiquette from Confucianism. Of course, he would not give up. He pondered slightly and carefully tentatively said: "Who does Zhaoyi admire?"
Wu Meiniang smiled and said, "I once went to Ganye Temple to become a monk, and I have a lot of connection with Buddhism."
Buddhism?
Han Yi frowned slightly, and after pondering, he understood.
What Buddhism advocates is that equality of all beings? Based on this idea, it is understandable that she will become a queen. This idea is beneficial to her who came from a poor family.
From this we can see that although Wu Meiniang is silent, she is actually far-sighted and her foresight is no less than Han Yi. Buddhism emphasizes tolerance and equality. Even after she becomes the queen, Buddhist thought will be of great help to her.
Why was Buddhism very popular in the Wu Zetian era? Princess and queens had an affair with monks? The main reason was that Confucianism values etiquette and law. Wu Meiniang called it, but it did not conform to etiquette and law. What's more, to be an emperor. In Taoism, the ancestor of Li Tang was Lao Tzu, the founder of Taoism. If she wanted to be an emperor, she would definitely not be able to praise Taoism. Only Buddhism is the most suitable, all beings are equal, and men and women are the same.
Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has not said that it has nothing to do with good or bad. Therefore, the three religions of Buddhism, Buddhism and Confucianism are all weapons in the hands of rulers. As for who is popular, it mainly depends on who is most suitable, not because of their own beliefs. Of course, there are still some individual cases because of faith, such as Xiao Wuyi's ancestors.
But this made Han Yi difficult, and Buddhism and scientific thoughts could not be put together. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Zhaoyi, the reason why my Tang Dynasty strongly advocates Taoism is because Your Majesty is from the Li family of Longxi, but whether it is the Emperor Taizong or the His Majesty today, governing the country or using Confucianism, the ministers and scholars in the court are the main ones. It can be seen that whether it is promoting Taoism or Buddhism, Confucianism has always been an indispensable force in the court."
Wu Meiniang nodded and said, "I understand this too."
Han Yi said: "Since that's the case, no matter whether I admire Confucianism or not, I cannot change anything. If the Confucians do not agree, he will still disagree."
Speaking of this, he suddenly changed his mind and said, "But if I can get the support of Confucian scholars, then I can speak for Zhaoyi among Confucian scholars. In this way, it will reduce the resistance Zhaoyi encountered. Of course, if Zhaoyi did not say this to me, I might not have thought of it yet, but now I will worry about this and will never let Zhaoyi suffer more resistance."
Wu Meiniang nodded slightly when she heard this. Confucianism is the foundation of governing the country. Since the Han Dynasty, emperors cannot do without Confucianism, because Confucianism is tailor-made for the king. If you put it in a custom way, you can only use wild ways. Only fools can do this. Then people from the Confucian school must be activated. Therefore, Confucianism is still the largest group of forces in the court, and no one can erase Confucianism. Since this is the case, they can only find a way to get their support and smiled and said, "What you said makes sense. In fact, I will not oppose you doing this. I know you also need the support of these people. I just hope you will be a little concerned."
This statement is true. She did not intend to force Han Yi to give up advocating Confucianism. She just hopes Han Yi knows her concerns. That's fine, because she knows Han Yi is a smart person and can't do stupid things. Without the support of Confucianism, Han Yi has no small amount of meat, but if she collapses, Han Yi will definitely be finished.
Han Yi nodded and said, "I will remember Zhaoyi's words."
Wu Meiniang took the tea and drank it lightly, and then said, "By the way! How did you think about Pei Xingjian last time?"
Didn’t Your Majesty tell you? This is impossible! Han Yi didn’t know what Wu Meiniang meant, and said, “Zhaoyi, now the time has come.”
Wu Meiniang said oh, saying, "How do you say this?"
Han Yi said: "Peo Xingjian's case is just a fifth-rank official who is a rash discussion about the royal family, but in fact there is a deeper meaning. It is that the uncle and the king are summoning people to oppose His Majesty's appointment as the queen. This indicates that the uncle and the king will never compromise, and this has threatened the imperial power. I believe His Majesty will not sit idly by and watch it."
Can Wu Meiniang not understand this? This news was transmitted by her mother. She was so excited that she didn't fall asleep all night. This was a taboo for the king. She just wanted to use Han Yi's mouth to express what she was thinking.
Han Yi also understood that he said so directly. Don’t you just want to hear this? Then I’ll tell you.
"Then what's the chance of winning?"
Wu Meiniang put away her smile and her expression gradually became solemn. Although she had been impatient, she was also afraid at this moment. If she lost, she would be finished, and it would be finished completely. Let alone her, Li Zhi must be very frightened now.
Of course, Han Yi was not sure. At that moment, God knew what would happen and said, "I can't grasp this. I only know that if I don't fight, I will definitely not succeed. If I fight, I will still have 50% hope. And it is meaningless to drag on it now. The power in the court is already very obvious. If there is no result, there will be no change. It will only intensify the struggle between the two sides and be unfavorable to the people of the country. If this fight continues because of this matter, it will inevitably cause public grievances, and it will have a negative impact on Zhaoyi."
"You are the same as I thought, and this matter cannot be delayed."
Wu Meiniang nodded and asked again: "But - how do you think you should open this?"
Han Yi thought a lot about this decisive battle and said, "First of all, we must discuss this matter publicly. After all, deposing the queen is not a trivial matter, but I don't take it and directly take it to the court to talk. The people in the court are too talkative, and the discussion will only last endlessly. At that time, it may become unbroken and messy. Moreover, many ministers are changing their minds when they are in trouble. There may be only a few people who make the decision. I suggest discussing with the central minister first."
Wu Meiniang nodded, but was frowning and sighed: "But if this happens, it is really hard to see hope. At present, the four people in the court are the most prestigious. The uncle of the country is naturally the first to be affected. Secondly, the left servant Chu Suiliang, who is one of the ministers of Gushi. There is no need to say much. In addition, there are the right servant Yu Zhining and Sikong Li Ji."
Of course, Han Yi also analyzed that if these four people were nodding, there would be no objection in the court. Even if there were, it would be unfair, and he said: "Uncle, Zuo Pushe is definitely opposed, so the rest is Right Pushe and Sikong, which is worth our fight for."
Wu Meiniang sighed: "The Yu family and the Changsun family have a long history, and they were the first to assist Emperor Taizong. The two have a very good relationship. I think he is also standing on the side of the uncle. Only Sikong Li Ji is the only one who is not from the uncle, but he is sick all year round and stays at home, stays in the house and does not leave the government. Your Majesty repeatedly wants to entrust him with important responsibilities, but he refuses. You may have a deep feeling."
Han Yi nodded and said, "When the Civil Security Bureau was established, Li Siwen, the second son of Li Siwen, was appointed as the police department. But the news just spread, followed by the news that Li Siwen was injured in hunting. Until now, Li Siwen has not shown up."
"From this point of view, Sikong Li Ji also objected."
Wu Meiniang's tone was very depressed, because in the Fang Yiai case, Changsun Wuji had eliminated a group of heroes, and there were only a few founding meritorious officials. Of course, there were Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde, but Yuchi Jingde had retired long ago. Cheng Yaojin was not as powerful as these four people in politics. The four of them were of high power and no one could match them. The power was spread all over the country. If all four of them agreed, it would be useless to just jump around Li Yifu and others there, and Li Zhi would not dare to go directly against these four people. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty was not as powerful as the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and Li Zhi had never been in power. If this was not done well, something big would happen.
When she really reached this point, Wu Meiniang became more and more depressed the more she thought about it, as if she could not see the hope of success. But whenever she thought of Han Yi, although Han Yi had limited ability and could not change the situation, she could give her a very positive energy, which is what she needed now.
Han Yi also saw Wu Meiniang's frustration, which was also normal, and smiled and said, "Zhaoyi, have you ever heard that I stopped Chen Shuozhen's army from invading in Yangzhou?"
Wu Meiniang was stunned and nodded. Chen Shuozhen had told her about this, but she didn't know why Han Yi mentioned it.
Han Yi said: "The situation at that time was that all the elite troops in Yangzhou were transferred by the governor Yang. Only some old, weak, sick and disabled were left in the city. Chen Shuozhen's tens of thousands of troops came in a fierce manner. It can be said that as long as Chen Shuozhen rushed forward, Yangzhou would be lost. The city of Yangzhou was depressed and the people were in panic. Even the Yang family was ready to burn together and did not have any hope of victory. If you have a pre-war analysis, no matter which aspect it is analyzed, you will definitely lose.
But the result was that not only Yangzhou City was defended, but God also dropped a meteor, which severely damaged Chen Shuozhen's army and directly reversed the entire battle situation. How could this be reasonable? If it were all based on analysis to deal with it at that time, then we could only surrender. It was because Young Master Yang and I and I retained the hope of victory that we could win the final victory.
Besides, my struggle with the Yuan family. Compared with the forces of the Yuan family, I am really an ant and an elephant. If I ask me to choose, I will also choose the Yuan family. But this is just a comparison of strength on paper. But when it comes to a close connection, this is another thing. There are countless cases of battles on the battlefield where there are fewer and more. Zhaoyi, you analyze it here in detail, think about it thoroughly, and think about it more thoroughly, after the incident, it is another thing, and no one knows what will happen. To give the simplest example, the power in the court seems very obvious now, but this is based on the fact that before everything happens, who can guarantee that everyone will stick to their original intentions after it happens? Drilling is drilling, actual combat is practical combat, and in essence, these are two things.
What Zhaoyi should consider is whether there are other choices and whether the preparations are sufficient. I think that at this point, we have no way out and are ready to go. The so-called one-stop work will decline again and lose three times. Now we are very imposing, so we naturally have to take advantage of the victory to pursue. The more this time, Zhaoyi will have the determination to win. There is a saying that Zhaoyi has heard, how can this barefoot person be afraid of wearing shoes? At this time, the other party should be worried, not us."
This sentence was like a shot of cardiotonic injecting into Wu Meiniang's heart, with a light radiant in her eyes. After thinking about it for a while, she said excitedly: "You are right. We barefoot people are still afraid that they will wear shoes."
She was buried with her, but she really left her luck and had today. What can I lose? Winning is your luck. It is reasonable to lose. At worst, it is just that Han Yi will be the same as before liberation! The one who should be worried should be Changsun Wuji, who ranked first in the list of heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. She has been in the prime minister for thirty years, and has disciples all over the court and the country, and has countless children. Changsun Wuji cannot afford to lose. (To be continued.)
