Chapter 236 Supervising Army

Chapter 236 Military Supervisor

After a deep conversation with Li Mi, it was already the third day of the year. Tang Li was afraid that Li Tengjiao and others would be shocked, so he did not go to the backyard to disturb them. He searched for the guest room and slept for two hours. At the fifth day of the year, he got up to wash and enter the palace.

Looking at the dark sky outside, Tang Li missed the time when he was the Tailecheng when he first became an official. Although he was low at that time, he was lucky to have no need to get up early. It was like now, even sleeping in was a luxury. Tang Li shook his head with a wry smile, and wrapped his red cloud cloak tightly on his body, got on the Xuan car that had been prepared long ago.

However, it is not only difficult to be a minister these days, but also to be an emperor, especially an emperor like Li Rui who ascended the throne at the critical moment. When Tang Li arrived at the palace city, the first dawn light had just appeared in the sky, but Li Rui had already started morning exercises neatly, followed by a little fat ball with reluctance on his face.

Squatting, illuminating your palms, raising your legs, and punching your fists. This routine that was hit by Li Rui by Tang Jiuxi was so powerful that it was very different from the soft appearance of the fat ball beside him.

Standing, staring, raised his eyebrows, and closed his fists. After completing a string of neat movements of closing the posture, Li Rui, wearing a bright yellow dress, walked over with a layer of fine sweat beads on his forehead. Gao Qi, who followed him, hurriedly handed over the towel that was still steaming.

After exercising, Li Rui's face was covered with a healthy blush. He seemed to be very energetic. He took the towel handed over by Gao Qi and wiped his face. When he walked to Tang Li, he smiled and said, "Master is here so early!"

"Morning exercises are over, it's still early! Brother Rui listens to you, you have changed this rule! You can't even sleep well." Following Li Rui, Xiaopang'er followed him with some breath and complained, "Brother-in-law, I want to go back, and I'll be so suffocated when I'm in this palace!"

When Li Rui was still King Liang, as Tang Li studied, this morning exercise was one of the many rules set by Tang Li at that time. He gave him the word "morning exercise". At the beginning, the two of them were resentful of reluctance, but they persisted over time. Now, although Li Rui entered the palace and became the emperor, he still maintained this good habit.

After all this, Zheng Peng saw Tang Li and Li Rui just smiled at him but didn't say anything, and said in a ventricular manner, "Okay, okay. Just pretend I didn't say it." Then he complained and said loudly: "If God is going to give a great responsibility to this person, he must first make his mind and mind work hard..."

He made the two of them laugh even more violently. After he finished reciting, Tang Li walked in and said with a smile: "A morning exercise will cost you your muscles and bones? Besides, morning exercise has nothing to do with whether you are given a great responsibility from heaven. As long as you are healthy, it's good."

"I love hearing what my brother-in-law said!" After hearing what Tang Li said, Fat Qiu was happy, "Not like the Wang Shilu, who speaks every day, "Heaven will give great responsibilities to this person."

"There are so many great responsibilities to be surrendered? People are more concerned about being content. The so-called peace of mind is the peace of mind. As long as you can live comfortably, it's good to live comfortably!". Due to the recent tedious conversation with the deep conversation last night, and the unrestrained atmosphere in front of you, Tang Li, who felt something at the moment, said these words casually. However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong and slowly said to Li Rui: "Rui'er, I'm saying this to Peng'er. You are the king of a country and bear the hope of all people. This is a first-class 'great responsibilities'. But you can't relax."

The surroundings were quiet. The three of them slowly moved forward, and the scene in front of them seemed to be back to the Tang Mansion. Only Tang Li's voice came faintly and said, "People are more important than comfort. This is easy to say, but it is difficult to do it. Doing your job well is to seek peace of mind. Only by being at peace can you be at peace. For example, Peng'er, what you need to do now is to practice your studies, which is your current job. If you cannot do your studies well, not to mention my exam, your sister will be at peace, how can you be at peace? How can you enjoy your fun while playing? Rui'er is the same. Now you are the emperor, so don't say that the emperor's expectations are expected. All the people are looking forward to it. For you, you must do your best to do your job well to be at peace. Being at peace is the first priority of comfort."

There was no outsider in front of him. Seeing Tang Li wandering around such a big circle to persuade him, Li Rui, who knew his intentions, bowed slightly as if he had been in the Tang Mansion in the past and said, "Rui'er remembers it!"

Fortunately, Gao Qi has seen many of this in front of him, so he is not surprised.

Nodded, Tang Li stopped talking, and slowly walked up the steps, and asked directly, "Did you talk about that last time?"

"When it comes to governing the country with virtue!", he waved his hand to disperse the eunuch who was welcomed from the warm cabinet. Li Rui frowned and said, "What Wang Pao said every day is Confucianism governing the country with virtue, but what he read in the teacher's book is closer to the Legalists..."

"Good question!" He turned his head and praised Li Rui. Tang Li pondered for a moment before saying, "There is no mistake in what Wang Shidu gave. For Ruier, you should govern the country with virtue, and governing the country with virtue requires the monarch to first cultivate virtue. Cultivating virtue is to establish one's own life. This is the first priority of governing the country and pacifying the world. This is combined with Ruier, you should focus on small things, but if you really dominate the country and pacifying the world, you cannot believe it all!"

"Why is this?" Seeing that what Tang Li said was very different from what Wang Shilu and court officials said in the memorials, Li Rui asked in confusion.

"Governing the country with virtue is a Confucian ideal of benevolent politics, but it is too broad. It is good if you can govern the country with moral education and education, but it is really difficult to implement it. There is no specific and operational standard of implementation." After a smile, Tang Li said: "The rule of law is different, and these are real things. In fact, the rule of law and the rule of virtue are not absolutely opposite, either this or that. The rule of law can enable the people to take their own positions and work in peace and contentment, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. Isn't this the goal of governing the country with virtue? From this point of view, the two are actually one and two, two and one thing."

Seeing Li Rui's face full of thoughtfulness when he heard it intently, Tang Lixu extended it again, "Rui'er, in fact, most things in this world are just like going up the mountain. There are many roads to go up the mountain, whether in front of the mountain, behind the mountain, main road, or small path, but there is only one goal, that is, climb to the top of the mountain. As long as you can achieve the goal, it doesn't matter how you go up the mountain. Rui'er, you need to remember that the country is the same. The goal is to be prosperous and the people are safe. As long as you can achieve this goal, you don't have to be too restricted."

"Brother-in-law, what is the one you think?" Tang Li couldn't help but smile, "I'm a practical one. As long as it is useful, governing the country is a real thing. No mystery can come."

Although at Li Rui's age, he had all kinds of names as companions as a companion after entering the palace as an emperor, and was actually a master of the lecturer, Tang Li did not leave it alone. No matter how busy he was, he had to take some time to enter the palace every day. However, his current teaching methods were completely different from others, and he had neither scriptures nor serious sitting. It was just like today. Li Rui listened to the professors for companions during the day, and then read the handbook that Tang Li gave him that day. Because the two had many differences, the thinking methods infiltrated the inside were completely different, so accordingly, there were more and more questions from him. Tang Li was also slowly penetrated into him in the chat of answering his questions.

In fact, when Li Heng raised an army to rebel, the handbook left for Li Rui before Tang Li entered the Yulin Zuowei Camp did not involve too many specific regulations. It was more of the principles and governance ideas that were proven to be effective by history, and their hidden ways of thinking behind such principles and thoughts. After all, Tang Li himself had no specific political experience. He could not guarantee whether the governance policies he saw in later generations could be applicable to the Tang Dynasty more than a thousand years ago, but those principles and thoughts, especially their ways of thinking, had a "universal nature" that transcends time and space. Although this kind of thing was slow to work, once it was formed, it would be like a human value, and it would follow for life. A person with a ** ideological system was also the least likely person to be influenced by others. Fortunately, Li Rui was young and had a admiration for Tang Li, so he accepted it quickly, especially after comparing with those lecturers and discussing and resolving doubts with Tang Li, this impression became deeper.

Although he was already a Hanlin attendant, the position of the position of the General Affairs Hall was not revoked. Therefore, after staying here for nearly an hour and completing the task of "solving doubts" to Li Rui, Tang Li wanted to go to the imperial city.

When he was sending Tang Li out, Li Rui asked: "Yesterday, Uncle Wang and all the brothers of the Sixteen Kings' House jointly submitted the book. He begged to serve the country. He is unknown what the master wants to do about this matter?"

"Oh! All the princes think it out?" Tang Li's heart moved when he heard this, but he didn't say anything, and asked, "What do Rui'er thinks in his heart?"

Li Rui said slowly: "The former emperor must have the intention to set up the house of the sixteen kings. The so-called "If your father dies, he will not change his way for three years" and now the former emperor has just passed away, I really have no intention of this!" At this point, Li Rui pondered for a moment and said: "It is just what the kings said in the memorials, please make me embarrassed by the fact that the army supervises!"

"Supervisor?" After hearing this, Tang Li understood completely that the Tang Dynasty was a general and prime minister. During the Kaiyuan Dynasty, the generals of the ten towns called back to Beijing for many years. However, since Li Linfu became prime minister, in order to prevent these generals from returning to Beijing to compete for power, they have launched Hu generals on a large scale among the generals of the border town, completely blocking the way for Han ministers to become generals and prime ministers. An Lushan, An Sishun, Geshuhan, Gao Xianzhi, Feng Changqing and others were all like this. If it weren't for Fan Yang's rebellion, there would be no problem. However, now with An Lushan rebelling, the court will inevitably be wary of these generals from other races. Tang Li originally thought that with the death of Xuanzong, this trend would naturally disappear, but now it seems that this is not the case. The princes in the house of the Sixteen Kings must have used this background as an excuse to go out to "supervisor".

In the original history, due to the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, a large-scale wave of dismantling Hu broke out. Not only were all the names of "An" related to "An" in Chang'an City replaced them, but many Hu merchants in the east and west cities were also implicated by him. The most important thing was that many generals who made great contributions in the quelling of the Anshi Rebellion were suspicious of the court. The most famous of these was Li Guangbi's death. The strong wind rose at the end of Qingping. If the situation in front of him was not controlled, history would most likely repeat itself, but this was definitely not what Tang Li wanted to see. Especially with some of his ideas after the battle.

While Tang Li was thinking about it, Li Rui's voice came and said, "Master, the princes reported on the military supervision matters mentioned in the book. Recently, Chen and Yang's two ministers have also mentioned it several times. Yang also recommended this position himself. However, I intend to ask the master to serve as the military supervision envoy to fight the rebels. I don't know what the master wants?"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"I'll send my brother-in-law to see you off again." He sent Tang Li all the way to the door. Li Rui stopped, but Xiaopangqiu took the opportunity to follow him.

Seeing that Tang Li had no happy face on his face, Xiaopang Qiuer accompanied him and said, "Brother-in-law, the military commander can command the military commander in the world. Mr. Yang said several times in front of Brother Rui but did not agree. Why are you unhappy with your brother-in-law?"

"How do you know I'm unhappy!", suddenly I got such a job. Tang Li felt a little complicated in his heart, but he didn't want to tell Xiaopangqiu in detail. "Tell me, what's wrong with me?"

"If you have nothing to do, you can't send your brother-in-law to see you?" Xiaopangqiu just salivated and saw that Tang Li looked wrong, he also said seriously: "Brother-in-law, the husband Yang has been in and out of the inner palace frequently in recent days. I feel disgusted when I hear what he said in front of Brother Rui every day. And the things he sent, food, use, and playful things, and it is almost impossible to load a room. By the way, he was even more generous when he rewarded Brother Rui's underground palace people. Brother Rui, you have to pay attention."

Upon hearing this, Tang Li nodded, but did not say anything about this topic, "Be careful in the palace, don't let Rui'er have any thoughts about you!"

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will stare at the palace." He has already walked far away. Fat Qiu didn't delay after he finished his business. He waved his hand and turned his chubby body back.

Tang Li came all the way, and soon he arrived near Yichunyuan. He walked over and asked Concubine Yang.

In more than a month, Concubine Yang obviously lost a lot of weight. The light yellow palace skirt that used to fit seemed to be a bit elegant now. When Tang Li went in, he saw her intently facing a green flute.

Tang Li naturally knew about this jade flute, and even more so that Concubine Yang had angered Xuanzong because of this thing and was sent out of the palace.

"I will meet the Empress Dowager!" Yang Fei, who had woken up, waved her hand lazily. Except for Xiaoyu behind her, the rest of the underground palace retreated silently.

Holding up the jade flute in his hand, dragging the long palace skirt, Yang Fei, who slowly walked up, leaned in Tang Li's arms, "Ali, can you take me away?" Qingruo's whispering voice was filled with pain and fatigue.

Maybe she suddenly said this, which made Tang Li speechless for a moment.

"Sanlang is dead, and the sect in the palace has also dispersed." He closed his eyes tightly, but Yang Fei's whispering voice became faster and faster. "When you walk there, you will see Sanlang's shadow. I can no longer live in this deserted inner palace! Ali, take me away, take me away!"

Tang Li sat down and gently stroked Yang Fei's shoulders and listened to her random murmuring who had been exhausted. It was in these messy words that he could hear Yang Fei's feelings for Xuanzong as his daughter's attachment to her father, and also heard her feelings for herself as a girl in love with her. Of course, she also felt guilty and yearning for life outside the deep palace...

After a while, the sound gradually faded. When Tang Li looked down, he saw that Concubine Yang in his arms had fallen asleep unconsciously, with tears at the corners of his eyes, and he was holding the emerald green jasper flute in his arms.

"Since the death of the Emperor, the Empress has not slept well for a long time," Xiaoyu said this softly when she approached.

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

When he returned to the mansion from the Zhengshi Hall, Tang Li did not go to the backyard first, but went directly to the side courtyard that was set up for Li Mishan.

There was silence in the side courtyard. Because of this silence, the slight sound of the album turning is clearly heard. When Tang Li walked over, he saw that in the study room changed into the west wing of the courtyard, Li Mi, who was still dressed in Taoist clothes, was sitting in a few sidings. The albums and letters he looked through were clearly the information sent to Hedong before.

Li Mi looked at the ground very focused, and he only discovered it after Tang Li walked into the room.

Without waiting for him to speak, Tang Li, who had sat down at Hu Tang, spoke first: "Changyuan, Your Majesty has given me the order to serve as the military commander for the rebellion."

"The rebels and military commander? Is it all the way or everything?"

"The imperial edict has been issued. Old Master Chen will be the commander of the rebels, Marshal of the Madu, Shuhan, Longxi Ge, Gao Xianzhi, and Bianzhou will be appointed as deputy commander. Yang Xiang will be appointed as general military ration envoy. I will be appointed as military supervisor and general military horses. As soon as Tang Li finished speaking, he saw the happy Li Mi attack case, saying: "Okay!"

"Okay? Changyuan, my position is different from that of Chen Xiang and Yang Xiang. I will go to the pass today, and I am afraid..."

"The new emperor is young and has just ascended the throne again. Don't worry, because Li Jing will give Yang Xiang an opportunity to take advantage of this time?" Tang Li nodded slightly to respond when Li Mi expressed his thoughts.
