Chapter 249 Power Transfer

"Fengtian Chengyun Emperor's edict said: The empress dowager, Jing Yu, is talented and resourceful, and Jing Yuan has a plan. Now I return to the court, order chaos out of the ban, and save me from danger. My ancestors protect me, and God's will belongs to me. You should abide by the original edict and entrust her to you. Zong Zhen. The foundation of the country is established, and the country can be safe. I have been suffering from illness for a long time, and I can't miss the country for a day without a master. I order the empress dowager to hold the seal to supervise the country. Let the queen dowager decide. Be sure to eliminate the rebellious party, to bring peace to the world, and to comfort my heart."

Now that the edict is issued, the officials will look at me and I will look at you.Thinking of the deafening knock on the door, I felt lingering fear.

Li Pinghong claimed to be sick, and the empress dowager supervised the country. On the surface, it was a smooth transition of imperial power. Who would have thought that in the shadow of invisible swords and swords, the two kings Dun and Wen were brutally decapitated, and the Chengpan Group was ransacked.Those vassal kings who participated in the rebellion against the party were dragged out of the various yamen in embarrassment, and they will never return to the front of the people.

The purge of power comes from the top down, and no one is guilty, either? No one is innocent.Some are just wheels rolling forward, if you don't follow, you will be abandoned.For example, Gao Jianzhi, the emperor's direct descendant who stayed out of the matter, was unwilling to be reconciled after being relieved of his military power as the commander of the infantry, and insisted on breaking into the palace to rescue him, but ended up with his head in a different place.On the contrary, Cui Yunliang, who was born in the direct line of King Cheng, became a hot favorite because of his meritorious service in helping the empress dowager put down the rebellion.

The direction of the wind is clear, and the sun can be seen after the clouds are cleared.Except for those real conspirators, everyone has a chance to turn back.It is their own choice whether to wake up suddenly or be stubborn, and it has nothing to do with others.

"Your minister leads the decree, thank you Father for your grace!"

After receiving the order, Li Jingchen stepped up the imperial steps step by step with a solemn expression, set up a seat on the east side of the dragon chair, faced all the officials, and accepted the worship of all officials calmly.For this day, she has been planning for 13 years.No one knows how many sleepless nights she has spent in the past 13 years, and no one knows how many joys and sorrows she gave up for this day.Up to now, she can not be afraid of the world's slander for her greed for power, and can not be afraid of the angry and cold eyes of those losers.For her, it is not easy, and there is no need to be ashamed.

The direct descendants who have always supported the Eastern Palace were naturally rejoiced and bowed down one after another: "The minister leads the decree, and greets His Royal Highness the Empress Dowager Jian Guo."

Most of the rest of the ministers were neutral ministers who didn't stand for either side. The empress dowager was originally the crown prince appointed by the emperor. Although she once thought she had died, it was now proved to be a false alarm.There is no reason why people should not be reset.In line with the established nature of the universe, and unwilling to fight again, they all knelt down and paid homage: "Your servant will kowtow to the emperor's daughter-in-law."

And those political opponents who wanted to make trouble were either swept out of the court early, or they were weak and had no confidence. It was the general trend to think that Donggong would take power.Even if there are doubts, we have to wait until the 60 troops return to the court.Feng Huaji, who is in charge of the army, is a direct descendant of the emperor, and he will never sit idly by.Right now? I had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow, "I will see the Empress Dowager."

Li Jingchen glanced at the crowded crowd, said some humble words, and formally took charge of the court.

I didn't pay attention to it, since the last time the heroine came to court, hundreds of years have passed without knowing it.

Gu Mian was appointed as the new cabinet minister, and participated in the secret meeting with Wang Zhongxu, Fu Mingqi and others.The rest of the Eastern Palace's staff were also appointed to important positions.Jiang Yiting was transferred to be a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and together with Yue Haiyu, Qing of Dali Temple, and Song Zhi'an, acting Zuodu censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, investigated and dealt with the private possession of [-] soldiers by King Dun and Cheng.

Both Jiang and Yue are upright people, they will not omit the guilty, and they will not wrong the innocent.In just half a month, the context of the case was roughly verified.

Since King Cheng opened the Literature Museum the year before last, he has used the name of recruiting talents to recruit guests, apprentices, and handymen to expand his family.It was at this time that King Dun's eight hundred soldiers were attached to the door of the Literature Museum.According to the investigation, King Cheng had known about Dun Wang's private recruiting of soldiers for a long time, but he concealed it and did not report it. He was obviously an accomplice.However, Pan Suiyong, as the inspector of the Literature Museum, did not know that there were eight hundred soldiers hidden under the name of King Cheng.Jiang, Yue and others believed that this was a major treason case headed by King Dun, King Cheng, and Pan Suiyong.Because most of the people involved in the case have already died, and the details of the case are mostly related to the ban, so under the instruction of Li Jingzhu, the case is closed.

Despite this, details have been revealed one after another.

For example, on the day when the incident happened, Pan Suiyong sneaked into the forbidden area, led his troops to set up an ambush, and attacked and killed King Dun.This is seen as a contradiction within the Dun, Cheng, and Pan groups. King Cheng disappeared, and Pan Suiyong wanted to support King Wen, who was easier to control, as the prince. King Dun was not reconciled. Under the guidance, he entered the palace through the Xihua Gate, conspired to seize power, but was executed instead.

After Pan Suiyong tasted the sweetness, he was greedy for profit, and used the fake god Wuying Talisman to dispatch the Shenwu army, and tried to attack and kill the empress dowager again in the same way.

In fact, before Pan Suiyong's monopoly on power has caused dissatisfaction among courtiers.When it came time to establish the foundation of the country, the emperor was urged to go his own way to establish King Wen.This? Has far exceeded the duty of a courtier.Moreover, the baiting and killing of King Dun is really frightening. It is not a means that a righteous minister can use. King Wen was bewitched by him and ended up decapitated. It is his own fault.

After the crime of treason by the three kings was determined, it was inevitable to wipe out the remaining party.

However, Li Jingchen hesitated when he looked at the long list handed over by Song Zhi'an, the censor of the left capital.

His eyes froze in one place, and an invisible gleam quietly flowed through his eyes. He picked up the pen, crossed out a few names seemingly unintentionally, and returned them to Song Zhian: "Don't move these people, so as not to affect the morale of the army." .”

Song Zhi'an saw the word "mountain" on the top of the first name crossed out with a blue pen, and felt a little disappointed in his eyes.But? Listening to what the empress dowager meant, it was because the man was on the front line and couldn't disturb the morale of the army, so she refused to punish him. In other words, he would still be punished in the future.I felt a little relieved in my heart.

After he left, Li Jingchen frowned visibly.Of course she knew this? It was just the beginning. Some things?She asked the straightforward Jiang Yiting to investigate the case because she didn't want to get too involved.Now it seems that he may not be able to control this turbulent undercurrent.

In late January, the imperial army took over the entire northern Xinjiang and formally returned to the court.The already stable court situation is once again fluctuating.

The Minister of the Ministry of War reported: "Feng Huaji wanted to offer prisoners outside the city on the grounds that there were too many prisoners, and returned the Jieyue to the emperor with his own hands." After receiving the information, all the cabinet ministers gathered in Wenhua Pavilion to discuss.

In the past month since Li Jingchen took power, measures such as accepting suggestions, learning from others' strengths, attacking political opponents in a controlled manner, and stabilizing people's hearts have achieved good results. The elders generally believe that under her rule, Yurui will be given Bring a period of relatively stable long-term peace and stability.Therefore, any disturbance that may damage this structure is not acceptable.

Wang Zhongxu said bluntly: "It's Yurui's custom to enter the city to offer captives. Why does he want to be special? I think he wants to take the opportunity to show off his meritorious deeds, so he must not make such an opening."

Fu Mingqi took a deep breath, "Of course the offering of captives outside the city camps outside the city. Doesn't he want to hand over the military power?" He still didn't say a code word. The ability to encircle Kyoto in the southwest.Had to be cautious.

Li Jingchen thought for a while, then summoned Meng Ran into the palace and explained some matters.

As they expected, Feng Huaji heard of the great changes in the court in the army, and has been having trouble sleeping and eating.Until the family members came to report that the Crown Princess was lenient and innocent people were not involved.Even the princes who were imprisoned before proved to have nothing to do with King Dun's rebellion case, and they were sent back to the government one by one.But? He is really afraid in his heart. It is really hard to say whether he is innocent today or forever.Now that he has the military power in his hands, Li Jingchen is afraid of him three points, but once the military power is handed over, it is difficult to save his life.Especially when he heard that the infantry commander Gao Jianzhi was executed for breaking into the palace, how could Feng Huaji, who was also the direct descendant of the emperor, be preserved?He will not fight recklessly like Gao Jianzhi, but? Also? He dare not be captured without a fight, so he uses the excuse of offering prisoners as a test.

On this day, outside the gate where he camped, a group of military officers served by the senior officials came. The leader held an imperial decree and claimed to be the special envoy of the emperor, Meng Ran, who came to reward the three armies by the king's order.After announcing the court's reward in front of all the generals, the whole army was encouraged, and the voices of shouting long live came and went one after another.

This is the difference between the imperial army and the four frontier armies. Although the chief general of the imperial army has the right to deploy troops, but money, food, soldiers, horses, etc. are all subordinate to the imperial court, and only the imperial court can afford rewards.Feng Huaji wanted to follow the example of Tu Yuanshan, Cheng Gongjiang and others in supporting himself. First of all, he did not have the foundation of money and food, nor did he have the reputation and justice of the emperor.Li Jingchen's beating is to let him see the reality clearly, don't act like a cocoon, it's a dead end.

Feng Huaji couldn't help sweating profusely when he looked at the nine-foot-long, courageous envoy of the Son of Heaven.After thinking hard all night, he returned the Tianzi Jieyue before dawn, and after presenting the prisoner, he went to guard the imperial tomb.

Coincidentally, the day when I went to the imperial mausoleum was the day when Li Jingchen went to the ancestral temple on behalf of the emperor to inform the world of stability. "This? It was actually a test. The last time Li Jingchen was ordered to go to the imperial tomb to worship his ancestors, she was escorted by Feng Huaji. At that time, out of safety considerations, she also tried to test the other party, whether she could take the route of Beiguan.Now that things are changing and the stars are changing, the same situation reappears, which is unavoidable.When she at that time and now Feng Huaji couldn't control her destiny, she was just trying to survive and protect herself.

Li Jingchen already understood what he meant, and gave him the word "ke".Also? Be regarded as made a tacit commitment.Later, after she succeeded to the throne, several times of liquidation of the previous forces were carried out, and Feng Huaji was always preserved.Ten years later, when Feng Huaji was employed again, he was very moved by Li Jingchen's promise at that time, which must have been more important to him than ten thousand catties.

The eldest princess met Li Pinghong later and asked about the former prince Li Jingzhi. She was extremely disappointed by his hesitant state of denouncing Li Jingzhi's wolfish ambitions and not answering the question directly. She was determined not to get involved in this bad debt, and The son-in-law Wu Tianji is in a state of semi-retirement.

Only Marquis Wensong, after destroying northern Xinjiang, was still tirelessly pleading to wipe out the Northwest and Southwest together in one go.However, because of this use of troops, the imperial court has been seriously injured.Li Jingzhu decided to suspend the use of troops against Zhou and Cheng, and resume production vigorously first.This is also what the ministers mean.Marquis Wen Song was afraid of missing a good opportunity, but when he saw Meng Ran, a 30-year-old titan, he suddenly understood what it means to be afraid of young people, so he no longer insisted on his own opinion, and returned to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to be on duty.

The liquidation of the Tu family had already begun when Tu Yuanshan sent troops.Dong Gong had occasional labor pains, but in the end he survived.And he survived with the face of unequivocally opposing the Tu family.Tu Yuanshan, Tu Yunkai and their sons were abolished of all honorable titles, and Li Zhouxuan was also kicked out from the royal genealogy.For this child who had called her biological mother for several years, Li Jingchen felt very sorry and regretful. She wanted to plan a proper way out for him when she was retiring, but she did not expect to ruin his life by accident. .His birth was a tragedy from the beginning to the end. On a sunny morning, Li Jingzhu quietly ordered someone to move his grave to be next to his biological mother. She thought this was the only thing she could do.

The author has something to say:

Sorry for the late chapter!The version written before basically wiped out all the enemies, but I still feel that Li Jing is not a cruel person.So it was changed to this version.
