0701 Governor of Youzhou, Protector of Dongyi
When they heard the emperor's resentful evaluation of Di Renjie, although both of them were close confidants, they did not respond.
Di Renjie is now very important in both status and influence in the court. What is the emperor's thoughts on the person and the matter? Let's talk about it for now, but their opinions are not easy to express.
After all, to be honest, even if the emperor had any dissatisfaction with Di Renjie, he only expressed his opinions in private occasions, but he was still respectful to Mr. Di in public occasions.
Seeing that neither of them spoke, the emperor felt bored in his heart, so he sighed and laughed at himself: "Di looks respectful and arrogant. After all, I am still losing the control. In the old year of the empress dowager, even if he commits himself to Shaanxi, would he dare to be so arrogant?"
When it comes to the emperor's inner impression of Di Renjie, it is really hard to describe. Not only Di Renjie, but also the old Tang ministers, including Li Zhaode, the emperor's feelings about them are also very complicated.
In previous years, he lived in the deep palace. Fortunately, these old ministers tried their best to protect him, so he was not persecuted by the Wu kings. He even finally managed to see the moon bright, and became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty again. From the bottom of his heart, Li Dan was indeed grateful to these old ministers.
However, as Li Dan's feelings towards these people gradually became complicated as he gradually came into contact with the world, especially after friction arose in power. Or in other words, the cracks had already existed, but they became more and more prominent as time progressed.
In the old year, he lived in a deep palace in secluded years. The numerous palaces were shackles for Li Dan, but they also seemed like a kind of protection. He fantasized about freedom, fantasized about being able to live without restraint, and fantasized about one day enjoying power, fantasized about the joint efforts of the king and ministers to eliminate all kinds of demonic atmospheres in the Wuzhou Dynasty, so that the Tang Dynasty will become stronger again under his leadership.
At that time, the ministers welcomed the sage to the court outside the Daye Gate of the Inner Palace. At that time, Li Dan was as frightened as a frightened bird.
Especially when he heard that a close relative of the clan family like Dou Lu Qinwang was hindering the general trend and even relied on his authority to implicate the idea of Luling to replace him, Li Dan realized that the so-called support for him by the old ministers may not be purely loyal to Tang. They experienced the turmoil of the Wuzhou dynasty, and their behavior and even their own nature and thoughts were extremely complicated.
As the situation develops, this perception becomes stronger and stronger. Li Dan feels most dissatisfied with Li Zhaode, but the fact that Li Dan always feels that in Li Zhaode's eyes, he always seems to be the royal heir who lived in the secluded home in the old year and lived like a year.
To put it more accurately, Li Dan seemed to never feel the supreme glory of being the supreme emperor in front of these old ministers. These old ministers had sheltered him in the past year, but he was always lacking in confidence in front of them.
So he undermined Li Zhaode? He even demoted him from Lingnan? It seemed that the downfall of these old ministers could help him regain some dignity.
It’s not that Li Dan didn’t want to treat these old ministers well, regardless of whether their respective thoughts were pure? But at least he had benefited from them for a long time. Even before Li Zhaode left the capital? He made a special trip to meet Li Zhaode once. As long as Li Zhaode was willing to show a trace of weakness and reluctance in front of him, he would be willing to let Li Zhaode continue to support the capital.
You old ministers have witnessed me being decent and crawling to live in front of the Queen Mother? I just want to see your weakness and helplessness? Seeking a sense of psychological balance.
But even this little expectation in his heart? Li Zhaode did not satisfy him? He was just not humble or arrogant and was ordered to say goodbye. So after Li Zhaode left the capital, Li Dan directly tore up the imperial edict he wrote with his own hand and would send the Secretariat to the Secretariat to add a yin to Li Zhaode's son.
Compared with Li Zhaode's tough style, Di Renjie is undoubtedly more sleek and can take care of the king's inner feelings. Therefore, Li Dan once again added the honors he regained from Li Zhaode to Di Renjie? To create an atmosphere of harmony between the king and the minister.
And he was really disappointed with Di Renjie? Was he selected this year? Li Dan hinted more than once that Di Renjie could do something for personal gain? He gave his children a more elegant position. But Di Renjie seemed fair and selfless, and sent his two sons back to his hometown in Bingzhou.
If we look at this matter from the front, can Di Renjie, as the prime minister, not be favored? He even does not care about his son.
But for the emperor, I give you such power and honor, would you still care about your son seeking a sixth rank mission? As the prime minister, the legitimate son is not even in the country, but is placed in a state where the emperor's order is not as good as that of Bingzhou. It is really scheming!
One or two, these old ministers were unruly and unruly. However, they repeatedly tolerated King Yong and expressed their appreciation for King Yong. This attitude hurts Li Dan even more and makes him more inclusive of Xingtai.
I had no intention of being a great throne, but you old ministers welcomed me out of the deep palace. If you think King Yong could entrust the country, why did you do this in that time? Is it just because I am kind and cowardly?
The Shendu Revolution has only been less than two years since its invasion, but Li Dan’s experience and feelings over the past period are several times more than thirty years ago. He even understood why his mother wanted to inhumane and challenge human ethics to attack the supreme position. If a person does not strengthen himself, he will always be imprisoned. The goodwill and protection of the past are nothing more than strange things!
Because of this, his feelings towards these old Tang ministers gradually changed from initial gratitude to resentment, and even his current hostility.
But no matter how he feels in his heart, Li Dan knew that he was still far from being able to control the government affairs at the moment, especially with the existence of a cancer like Shaanxi Daxingtai, he could not completely sweep the so-called old ministers out of the court with his temporary intention. Leaving Di Renjie in the court is also a role model.
"Shaanxi Road is due to border affairs and military diligence. However, there are many old ministers in the court who insist on stubborn obstruction and only focus on rest and frequent prevention of military affairs. Looking at the past and present, how can there be a strong country where wars and swords are not prospering? In the long run, the stronger the outside world, the weaker I am."
Although Li Dan has been in the deep palace for a long time, he also understands where power comes from. The reason why Xingtai is stronger is not just King Yong's clever and charming ability.
It’s a pity that Wang Xiaojie, whom he chose before, was really embarrassing and it was much more difficult to rectify the military affairs of the Nanya than he thought. Moreover, the Nanya is closely related to the foreign court, and even if there are any results, it is difficult to be the king’s private ownership.
"This time, the money offered by the boy Guan is in the palace and treasury must not be extravagant. The previous discussions on repairing the Northern Yaman are all due to the use of materials. Now that I have such a foreign money, I am invested in this!"
Li Dansheng was in the world, and naturally had personal experience of the difference between the Southern Yamen and the Northern Yamen. In the previous revolution of Shendu, King Yong was suddenly greater than within the capital, and was controlling the Northern Yamen. Going forward, his mother was able to depose and establish his father, and his father was able to expel the eldest grandson, and even his grandfather was able to ascend the throne, all of which were determined in the Northern Yamen.
The reason why the military affairs adjustment in the court and the central government had to be focused on the Southern Ya was rarely mentioned about the Northern Ya because Li Dan was not sure of the benefits and was simply forced by lack of money.
The Sixteen Guards of the Nanya led the government soldiers. Although the government soldiers were almost collapsed, they were still the government's public instruments in the system. Therefore, it was also a major event for the court when rectifying the military affairs of the Nanya. Even if the treasury is empty and the finances are difficult, this matter must be done.
But the Northern Yamen has a bit of the taste of the emperor's private army, and the military structure should be more independent, which is a tool used by the emperor to check and balance the Southern Yamen and even the entire outer dynasty. Therefore, if the Northern Yamen is to be expanded and rectified through the treasury financial branch, the support enthusiasm of the court officials will naturally not be too high.
For such a situation that Li Dan accepted, regardless of the outer court, the inner palace was simply a mess.
His mother's ability to prodigality was one of the few emperors of all dynasties. In addition, there was also a thief, the rat, Yong King, Li Shenzhi, who took advantage of the convenience of controlling Da Nei earlier to clean the palace warehouse. Even the mouse would starve to death when he entered, let alone leave Li Dan the starting funds for the North Yamen to rectify.
If you don’t have money, you can’t move forward, even if you are the emperor. When Li Dan’s family first returned to Da Nei, the palace had to provide food from various companies and families with the help of the Lords. Where did you get the money to form the so-called emperor’s army in the Northern Yaya?
So Li Dan really saw this huge sum of more than 670,000 yuan. He had not yet entered the capital and had decided to invest it in the Northern Yamen to form an imperial guard force that was truly loyal to his emperor.
After hearing the emperor say this, Dou Xiaochen was somewhat disappointed. He previously mentioned that the Yong Wang family's wealth was half of their Dou family property, and it was not completely selfless. At this time, he heard that the emperor had plans to use the money without any worries about their family.
However, Dou Xiaochen was also a person who had been through the gate of hell. He was naturally happy when he got money, and he was not enough to think about it after losing it. So he quickly suppressed a little loss in his heart, and then said, "With the Northern Yaya, you will be able to be full of vitality and will be a great use. The Dianjun is not a close friend who is not a close friend."
After hearing this, Li Dan nodded: "This matter needs to be carefully considered. It's a pity that King Yu and others are not worthy of it. There are really not many secret choices in the Zong family."
Speaking of this, he glanced at Dou Xiaochen, who was expecting, and said: "The rectification of military affairs in the Beiya is just a sub-scheming for the palace defense. Whether the border safety or not is the real major plan for the country and country. The reason why Shaanxi Dao boasted about things is nothing more than a few achievements in the border affairs. The court had previously been trapped in the theory of rest and had no far-reaching plans. But now, border plans have frequently become the focus of public opinion and cannot be ignored.
