Although it has been planned for a long time when the Daliang Dynasty's court meeting will be held, in fact, after His Majesty the Emperor took the throne, when the court meeting will be held has become almost arbitrary. However, the Emperor's Majesty except the Daliang Emperor's
In addition to his identity, he also has the identity of a powerful martial artist, so it makes sense that he would practice in seclusion from time to time. However, even so, His Majesty the Emperor has not neglected government affairs. Since the first year of Tianjian, he has already formed a group led by Lord Zaifu.
Headed by, and assisted by several important officials of the imperial court, they used the mode of being in court affairs to deal with the problem that His Majesty the Emperor was unable to handle government affairs while he was in retreat.
Therefore, when the court meeting will be held, the ministers in the court will get the news from the Prime Minister almost one day in advance. However, after His Majesty the Emperor went to the north alone last year, the number of court meetings held this year has been really pitiful.
Although the news coming out of the palace all said that His Majesty the Emperor was practicing in seclusion, how could the ministers believe it so easily? Therefore, as early as spring, there were intermittent letters from the ministers to the Emperor.
After they went up, they were all suppressed by the Prime Minister and could not be sent to His Majesty the Emperor's desk. However, this matter continued for a long time, and finally a memorial was brewed with dozens of ministers jointly signing it. This time, the Prime Minister
Your Excellency can no longer suppress it, so the papers are now piled in front of His Majesty the Emperor's case, like a small mountain.
After that, some ministers even stood guard at the entrance of the Imperial City Palace, wanting to enter the palace to meet the Holy Spirit.
But after waiting and waiting, the last thing I waited for was that there would be nothing to do tomorrow and the morning meeting would not be held.
This angered many ministers who were still waiting and watching. In these days, more ministers gathered outside the palace gate, with the intention of forcing the palace.
This scene is actually not uncommon. When it was first reported that His Majesty the Emperor was going to the northern border, there were so many courtiers here, and some even hit their heads against pillars, causing blood to splatter on the spot.
Although the two cannot be compared, everyone knows that if this matter is not handled properly, there will be another turmoil of great magnitude.
Confucianism disrupts law with literature, and chivalry disrupts discipline with martial arts.
This sentence has been an enduring thing in secular dynasties for thousands of years. Before His Majesty the Emperor ascended the throne, His Majesty the Emperor of the secular dynasty was just a bigger ant in the eyes of monks outside the country. There were often monks
The incident of entering and exiting the palace at will happened, but as Emperor Liang ascended the throne, the second half of the sentence has probably disappeared in these years, but the first half of the sentence has always been unable to do anything.
We can rely on those who guard the border in the north, but when it comes to governing the country, we probably still need to rely on these scholars, and these scholars have the so-called character. Although they are weak, some people are really not afraid of life and death, and they have to recognize their hearts.
It's a death principle, so it really can't be suppressed by killing a few people.
Lord Zaifu did not follow the courtiers to go outside the palace gate to see the Emperor, but now he changed his clothes and went with Tai Shiling to the shade of a tree in the distance. After sitting down, Lord Zaifu tightened his grip.
He took off his tight-fitting clothes and then smiled and said, "These guys have been here for so many years and still can't understand this truth. How can Your Majesty really care about their opinions."
Tai Shiling looked heavy and said with some confusion, "As the prime minister and the head of civil servants, which side will you choose to stand on when encountering such a thing?"
"I won't take any side. My old bones can't stand the torment."
Master Zaifu looked at Taishi Ling with a smile, "On the other hand, you have thoughts in your heart, but you can't express them. Taishi Ling is not easy to do."
As a historian of the dynasty, although Tai Shiling did several radical things, most of the time, he actually had to exercise restraint and not get too involved in these things, otherwise it would be difficult to be impartial with his historical pen.
.
"It's not easy for Your Majesty. You have to govern the country, and you also have to use your own power to intimidate the outside world. Naturally, you can't let go of your spiritual practice. From what I see, there are not many meetings held these days. In fact, it is understandable. Why do you have to make trouble?" Zai
Master Fu looked at Tai Shiling and asked with a smile, "What do you think?"
Taishi Ling frowned and said indifferently, "I don't care so much. Whatever happened has to be recorded in the annals of history. The same goes for whatever your Majesty does. If your Majesty doesn't care what future generations say, you can do whatever you want."
Master Zaifu understands the matter of Taishi Ling. Although this kind of matter may not be solved properly, if His Majesty the Emperor works hard to save face, these ministers will probably feel a lot better. But in fact, in the past ten years, the Emperor has
His Majesty has never had this idea, and he has never cared about how literary officials wrote about him.
Mr. Zaifu smiled and said, "No matter how big the deal is, our Majesty won't care about it anymore."
Tai Shiling recalled what happened a few days ago and said, "I don't think so."
Master Zaifu frowned. He was a smart man, but just from these three words, he seemed to figure something out. He asked tentatively, "Has your Majesty gone to the Shige to read the historical records?"
Tai Shiling nodded slowly.
"Your Majesty wants to change the annals of history?"
Master Zaifu's expression gradually became serious.
Tai Shi Ling slowly shook his head, "Your Majesty did not speak, but even if you have this idea, I will not let your Majesty change it.
"
Master Zaifu smiled and said, "You have such a bad temper."
Taishi Ling did not respond.
Master Zaifu thought to himself and said softly, "It seems that Your Majesty is really getting old."

After Li Heng returned to the imperial city, he naturally accompanied Emperor Liang. Today, a young eunuch brought a brazier from outside the imperial study. Li Heng naturally picked up the papers on the case, lit them, and threw one letter after another into the brazier.
inside.
No one has read these excerpts, but His Majesty the Emperor already knew what was in them, and it made people upset, so there was no need to read them anymore.
His Majesty the Emperor sat behind the case, looked at it for a few times, then slowly stood up and looked at Li Heng. Li Heng smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to see those ministers?"
Emperor Liang said calmly, "What's there to see? This is not the first time for these scholars, and this is not the last time. Let them make trouble. They have reason in their hearts, and I have reason in my heart. Anyway, no one can convince anyone.
Why waste your breath."
Li Heng smiled and joked, "If His Majesty is really in seclusion, it would really make sense. But His Majesty is acting like this now, and he also says that he is justified. This servant cannot agree with you."
After listening to this, Emperor Liang glanced at Li Heng in front of him a few more times, and suddenly smiled and said, "Why do you go out? You seem to be more popular. It seems that you should go out and see more, otherwise it will be boring."
very."
Just as Li Heng was about to speak, a voice came from the door, saying that the imperial doctor had arrived.
He just shut up and continued to burn the memorials.
Emperor Liang said the word "Xuan" expressionlessly.
After the chief physician of the Imperial Hospital knelt down, His Majesty the Emperor got straight to the point, "How is the princess?"
The imperial doctor who knelt in front of Emperor Liang was silent for a moment, and then said slowly and bitterly, "Your Majesty, forgive me, but I really have no choice. Your Highness the Princess was unwilling to let me check my pulse for diagnosis and treatment half a month ago."
"This girl."
Emperor Liang said softly, "I don't expect you to cure the princess. You just need to tell me how long the princess can live."
The imperial doctor lowered his head and did not dare to speak for a while.
Emperor Liang remained silent and just looked at him like this.
After a long time, the imperial doctor said in a low voice, "I have asked Her Royal Highness the Princess's personal maid. Her Royal Highness has not eaten properly for a long time. The prescriptions prescribed by the Imperial Hospital have also stopped a long time ago. I... I guess,
your Highness……"
At this point, the imperial doctor really didn't dare to continue talking.
Emperor Liang was too lazy to wait any longer, so Li Heng whispered a few words, and the imperial doctor gritted his teeth, lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, the princess will probably be here for the next few days."
Emperor Liang didn't move for a while. After a long time, he came back to his senses and waved his hand.
After the imperial doctor retired, Emperor Liang whispered, "Li Heng, come with me for a walk."
Li Heng, who had just burned the last memorial, stood up.
Afterwards, the master and servant left the imperial study.
…
…
"When I was still the vassal king, the queen was pregnant with the girl. The imperial doctor said that the queen was weak and might not be able to give birth. I even asked the queen to induce labor, but the queen was unwilling to do so. After that, she gave birth to the girl with difficulty, probably
This also caused her to be weak since she was a child. The Queen blamed herself for this for many years. Every time she mentioned it, she burst into tears. Now that I think about it, from that time onwards, the Queen's health was not so good."
Emperor Liang suddenly spoke, his voice bitter.
Li Heng said softly, "No mother in the world would choose not to have a child of her own, especially for a woman like the Queen. No matter how much your Majesty tries to persuade her, it will be of no use."
"Yes, I also know that. Fortunately, although this girl is a little weak in the future, she can live for decades if she takes good care of herself. I am rich in the world, and I think I can make her live a good life. But at the beginning, I
It’s a matter of fact, but I still hesitate.”
Emperor Liang's eyes were complicated. If it hadn't been for that incident, maybe he wouldn't be like this.
Li Heng remained silent.
Emperor Liang laughed at himself and said, "I have been busy with political affairs these years and have paid less attention to her. But in fact, I have always felt guilty in my heart, and I don't dare to see her. It's funny to say that I have never been afraid of anything, but I just care about this couple."
Mother and daughter are very scared."
Fear of coming and going is nothing but fear of death.
I am afraid that my wife will die, I am afraid that my daughter will die.
But it seems that no matter how scared I am, it doesn't work.
Li Heng said, "Your Majesty, please go and see Her Royal Highness."
Speaking of which, she was also the woman he watched grow up. When he was in the palace, Li Heng had to deal with the princess a lot.
"What this girl wants to see now is not me. If I go there, it won't help. But since father and daughter are together, it's time to go and see her."
Emperor Liang said, "Li Heng, let that boy enter the palace."
Li Heng nodded slightly.
Emperor Liang suddenly stopped and said, "Li Heng, I am really going to be alone."
