The glory of Tang Dynasty (92)

Summon the country?

Empress Wu put down the book in her hand and went to see Li Zhi, "Sage, the more it is at this time, the less likely it is to mess with Tong'er. The Chang'an disaster is really serious. That's the capital. Because the country is here, this

It was handled in an orderly manner and there was no trouble. But Zhen Guo was suddenly summoned away, which may cause confusion. With so many people accompanying you, what else do you have to worry about? Otherwise, ask Hong'er to come and talk to you.

Or ask the master to talk to you about Buddhism. Once your mind is at peace, everything will be fine. Don’t think too much. Qin Minghe is your usual doctor. You are just tired from the bumpy ride. You can recover after resting for ten days and a half.

.I will come back to accompany you more often! As for government affairs, big concubines are coming, as for daily small things... The prime ministers have not brought them all, and the employment is really stretched. How about promoting a few people on the spot? No

Being a prime minister is called 'Tong Zhongshu Menxia Ping Zhang Shi', and he handles government affairs on behalf of the prime minister..."

Li Zhi was speechless and seemed to be asleep.

His will cannot be spread.

And the queen did what he expected, and started to add people to the group of prime ministers.

This ‘Pingzhangshi’ official position without a clear level is amazing!

Sure enough, Empress Wu successively promoted Liu Weizhi from among the students from Beimen, and Fan Lubing became a subordinate of Tong Zhongshu, bringing these people from behind the scenes to the front and began to enter the center of the Li and Tang dynasties.

Zhang Jianzhi went to Di Renjie privately and whispered, "Brother Di, something is wrong."

Di Renjie looked around and nodded at Zhang Jianzhi, "Brother Jianzhi, please don't lie in vain!"

Zhang Jianzhi said in a low voice, "The generals will not see each other, they will not see each other, the saint is ill, and the prince still cannot come out...but he promoted a few unknown people to participate in the decision-making...What does this mean?"

Di Renjie asked, "What about the words of brother Yi Jian?"

Zhang Jianzhi whispered: "It's time to send a message to Princess Zhenguo."

What then? What do you want the princess to do?

Zhang Jianyi pondered, and then shook his head, "That's not right! That's not right! We can't invite the princess of Zhenguo to come. If there is an accident, the princess may not be able to support the prince!" The conflict between the princess of Zhenguo and the prince is almost obvious.

On the face of it. If you summon the princess of Zhenguo at this time, it will cause another trouble!

Di Renjie: "..." You are right to be so worried! But the princess is not that kind of person.

The Queen must have wanted to be the regent, but the princess will not sit still and wait for death! No matter whether the Queen is the regent or the prince is in charge, he will not be too friendly to the princess! Therefore, the princess is not sure what she is busy with.

Yes! Tongtong is really busy. She doesn't know what Empress Wu is doing, and she doesn't care what the other party is doing. Now it's like playing chess. Empress Wu can play the chess pieces openly, but she can't. She can only place the chess pieces secretly.

, Only in this way can we ensure that we will not be ignored by Empress Wu in the future.

The Fourth Master had a map in front of him, "Don't even think about it, the Imperial Guards can't move this place."

Got it! Ever since the Xuanwu Gate Incident, the imperial guards were the most likely to touch the sensitive nerves of the royal family.

The fourth master clicked four times on the map with his hand, "These four governor's offices must be staffed in advance. The positions do not need to be high, just inconspicuous key positions! Positions where you can control the overall situation at any time without taking risks.

.”

Lin Yutong nodded. The four governor's mansions pointed out by the fourth master are very important to the Tang Dynasty today. If the border defenses placed by the fourth master are peripheral chess pieces, then these four places are at the core of the Tang Dynasty.

Nails in position.

The two of them were talking in the room, and Zesheng was drawing red on the side.

After finishing writing, he saw that Aye and Aniang were still busy, so he ran away and went to play with his grandfather.

Li Jingye asked casually, "What are you doing, Aye? Why don't you come out today?"

Grandma was at home, and Aye was telling her this.

Li Jingye laughed, and the couple looked at each other and said, "What's there to say? There's so much to say!"

Zesheng said casually, "Let's talk about the Governor's Mansion."

Li Jingye was curious about his grandson, "The Governor's Mansion? Do you still know about the Governor's Mansion?"

The child sat down on the floor in the verandah and talked to his grandfather, "Bingzhou, Yizhou, Jingzhou and Yangzhou are the four governor's offices."

You really know! Li Jingye teased the child, "Do you know why the Governor's Mansion was set up in these four places?"

Aye taught me, but I couldn't talk about it, not to anyone.

Therefore, Zesheng shook his head and said he didn't know.

Li Jingye burst out laughing, "It's okay if you don't know...but our family is a martial arts family, so it doesn't matter if you know it! Grandpa will teach you."

Tongtong didn't care what her grandparents said over there. She looked at the map and looked at the four states, thinking about how to arrange it.

Let’s talk about Bingzhou first! Li Tang started his career in Bingzhou, which was the place of Longxing in the Tang Dynasty, and Empress Wu’s hometown was also in Bingzhou! In the Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was the general stationed in Bingzhou. This was a major military town in the north, and its status was irreplaceable.

.

As for Yizhou, this place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Yizhou is what later became most of Sichuan. Anyone who has a big disaster likes to go to this place because of its geographical conditions, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

! Of course, the products here are rich, and the middle of Shu is prosperous. It has always been like this from ancient times to the present. That place can support so many people. Let’s not talk about future generations, just the Anshi Rebellion. Where did Li Longji go? He just went there

You are running away from Yizhou and want to take refuge in Yizhou, right? From here you can understand the importance of this place.

As for Jingzhou, anyone who has read the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms and knows the history of the Three Kingdoms knows that this place must be fought over by military strategists! Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou and never returned it. This is Jingzhou. Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei, why don't they use a strategy for Jingzhou?

?In the end, Guan Yunchang accidentally lost Jingzhou. What was the result? The result was that the Shu Han Dynasty went downhill from then on.

Not to mention Yangzhou, what does that poem say? With a hundred thousand guan in your pocket, ride a crane down to Yangzhou. This place is a money bag!

Because of the importance, the Tang Dynasty set up governor's offices in these four places, and troops were recruited from these four governor's offices. It can be said that, in addition to the capital and imperial guards, these four governor's offices accounted for almost 80% of the capital of the Tang Dynasty.

troops.

Before Empress Wu left, she arranged for Liu Rengui to say that the Ministry of War should focus its energy on the side. This is right! But this is also your own opportunity. As long as troops are mobilized, personnel will be mobilized. Taking advantage of this transfer, place people in important positions

, It doesn’t look like a mountain and it doesn’t leak water, but if it wants to move, it can have the power of thunder.

This has to be done quickly and quietly, which challenges the scheduling ability.

And how could other countries not know about this change in the Tang Dynasty? No, since the beginning of winter this year, the East Turks have been harassing the border areas. Lin Yutong cannot leave. She and the Ministry of War have to mobilize troops and generals at the same time.

In serious disaster situations, food and grass must be allocated to cope with the war with the East Turks.

Busy! Extremely busy! Busy feet never touch the ground.

But the house leaked and it rained continuously, and Xue Rengui disappeared! Another shining star of the Tang Dynasty fell.

Lin Yutong personally gave Li Zhi a lesson. Although Xue Rengui was defeated in the Battle of Dafeichuan, his military achievements in his life were unparalleled. Please reward him.

When the fold was delivered to Luoyang, Li Zhi was already on his deathbed.

Fan Lubing handed the zhezi to the Queen of Heaven to report the matter.

Empress Wu took the paper without moving it. She was undecided about something, that is, whether to summon Zhen Guo to Luoyang or not.

The saint's waking hours are getting shorter and shorter every day. Every time he wakes up, he is either talking about Hong'er or Xian'er, or calling Tong'er, whom he still wants to meet.

She did not summon Tong'er, nor did she ask anyone to notify Hong'er or Xian'er. She only said that the saint wanted to recuperate. Taiping wanted to visit several times, but was stopped every time.

Fan Lubing said: "Your Majesty, you have to be shown, you can't hide it."

"Yes! You can't hide it." Empress Wu said sadly, "Children have the right to see their father... maybe this will be the last time."

Fan Lubing did not dare to speak and only stayed with him silently.

Empress Wu said, "Secretly send a decree to the princess of Zhenguo, and ask her to come to Luoyang as soon as possible after arranging all matters in Chang'an. Tell the princess that the saint's dragon body is not in good shape, and I am afraid he will not be well. Tell the truth!"

yes!

Fan Lubing went to do his business, and then Wu Cai looked at Shangguan Wan'er and said, "Go and pick up... the prince and princess, hurry up!"

yes!

Li Hong had been living in a palace outside Luoyang City, so he was summoned. He didn't want to go, it would make people think too much, so he refused!

But the visitor whispered, "Your Highness, you have to go... I'm afraid the saint..."

What?

"I'm afraid the saint is not well."

Li Hong was shaking when he got up, "Isn't it good? I asked someone to ask a few days ago, and they said they had a bowl of porridge, didn't they?"

This man did not dare to speak, he just lowered his head and cried.

Mrs. Pei hurriedly said: "Your Highness, go ahead! I'm sick... sometimes good and sometimes bad. Maybe you can use a bowl of porridge when you ask..."

Li Hong casually grabbed his clothes and left, "Don't come out, take the child and rest first."

Li Hong was invited here, but Li Xian was not moved.

Li Xian, who was wearing a monk's robe, looked at Gao Yanfu and said, "Xian has passed away and has no relatives in the world to care about him. Naturally, he has no father or mother. Since he has no father, why should he mourn!"

Therefore, Li Xian was not invited. When Li Hong arrived, Li Xian, Li Dan and Taiping all arrived. My father was lying there, mumbling something, but no one could hear clearly.

Li Hong first asked: "Where is the imperial sister?"

"We have secretly summoned her to come to Luoyang as soon as possible." Empress Wu sat beside the couch, "Please keep her as a servant to see your father on his last journey."

Li Hong summoned the imperial doctor again, coughing and asking: "What's going on? Is it true that there is no way to have a child?"

Qin Minghe knelt and did not dare to move, "I am waiting for death."
