Chapter 839: legend

Views:

Many years later, the people of Jincheng will often happily mention to their juniors the vision of heaven and earth that occurred in the autumn of the third year of Tianshou, and with great awe, they will describe the brave and unparalleled Emperor with great awe. , the extraordinary heroic figure when he came to this dark place.

In their tireless narration, the great emperor who brought great blessings to this land, made ordinary people have enough food and clothing, and kept the countryside open at night, has a stalwart body of hundreds of feet, and exudes an unstoppable worship. of divine light.

Especially a pair of breathtaking eyes, bigger than the city gate and brighter than the sun.

The Son of Heaven Sword in His Majesty's hand shines like a river of stars, and with a random wave, the sword's energy travels for three thousand miles. All the rebels and villains on this land will be wiped out by this sword, while the loyal people who are loyal to the Tang Dynasty will not be affected in any way, and will only feel like a spring breeze.

The guards surrounding His Majesty's seat also all have the demeanor of a fairy, so powerful that they cannot be defeated.

In order to prove their point of view, the old people would swear that the strongest group of big monks in Jincheng, those dignitaries in the fish and meat village, who exploited the people, robbed people's wives, and hurt people's lives, were killed as soon as they flew off the ground. His majesty's guards were cut into a blood mist.

As for the so-called king of Silla with impure blood, stealing high positions, and exercising brutal rule over the people, he just yelled at our supreme majesty, and before he had time to draw his sword to make a move, his majesty looked at him and fell down on the spot , Destroyed!

The old people basking in the sun under the eaves can't get tired of telling stories about His Majesty the emperor, and the younger generations who eat well can't get enough of them.

As for the slovenly lunatics who haunt dark and humid streets and alleys all the year round, with scant clothes, hungry faces, and withered faces like ghosts, they will jump out weakly and yell at the old people for forgetting their ancestors, and tell the children in tears, don't Bewitched by that devil, you must remember that when you recreate the glory of the Silla Dynasty, you will only get supercilious looks from the old people and children.

If they are in a good mood, the old people will send two steamed buns to disperse these beggars who do not know the so-called so-called. sent people to jail.

Children always have a lot of questions, and it is not that no one doubts what the old people say. At this time, the frantic old people will grab the children's ears, take them to the Taoist temple or temple in the workshop, and point to The murals on the entire wall let them see clearly and clearly.

Those huge murals recorded the scene of Jincheng ushering in a new sky: rolling green clouds, His Majesty Shenwu carrying a bright light, the emperor's guard with a sword, the wicked monk with distorted and frightened face who was killed on the spot, and The king of Silla who fell straight on the ground, and the people who knelt down all over the city.

At this time, seeing the children's mouths wide open in surprise, reverence, and worship, the old people will nod in satisfaction and relief.

Then, they always end their day of education work with a similar sentence: "On that day, Your Majesty sent the corrupt and sinful Silla Dynasty to the dark doomsday world, but brought us light and new life! Children , you have to study hard and practice hard, and when you grow up and become talented, you can serve the glorious Tang Dynasty and be loyal to our great emperor!"

...

With Jin Yao, Zhenxuan, Wansanzhou, the capital of the later Baekje kings, and Jinchengzhong, the capital of the Silla kings, the civil servants, generals, and monks who disobeyed the Tang Dynasty were slaughtered, and the two countries could no longer occupy the various territories occupied by the Tang army.

When building a city, organize an effective resistance.

Although sporadic troublemakers still inevitably appear, in the face of the general trend, they are destined to be just a small wave in the ocean, and they will be wiped out by Tang Jun's armored ocean at a glance.

After the Tang army occupied the main city, they immediately disarmed the original army in the city with the cooperation of the monks in Tsingyi Yamen, and concentrated the soldiers under surveillance. Then the civil servants who presided over local political affairs arrived, checked the household registration registers, inspected the places, re-measured the land, and then allocated fields to the soldiers according to the specific situation, and let most of them disarm and return to the fields.

After various matters, it will not be straightened out within three to five months. Most of the civil affairs tasks are cumbersome and meticulous, requiring a lot of energy from the officials.

Fortunately, there are 100,000 troops stationed on the peninsula to preside over the overall situation, so there will be no troubles. Then, from the original local army, select the best part to help the Tang army maintain local order, and the prefectures and counties will gradually restore stability.

Li Ye no longer needed to do these things himself, and he did not need to assign the civil servants brought by the army to go to the localities one by one. What really needed him to do was to rebuild the Anton Protectorate and select the main officers and generals of the Protectorate.

The candidate for the guardian is naturally Zhao Polu. Silla is initially determined, and he still needs to lead a large army to station here for a period of time, but he doesn't care about civil affairs, and the leading civil servant is Zhang Wence.

In the past two years, Zhang Wence served as the Nanzhao Propaganda Envoy, so he is very familiar with the mission of appeasing the people after the war. Silla was "unreigned", and needed a talented and experienced official to preside over the overall situation and solve various problems.

Zhang Wence has done a good job in his errands over the years, and he has grown rapidly. As a scholar, he was suspected of being too "moral". After being taught a lesson by Wang Jian in Nanzhao, he is now famous Iron-blooded civil servant.

He is kind when it is time to be kind, and he is good when it is time to kill. Especially in the management and education of people outside the territory, he has a lot of experience. Before the Battle of Silla, Li Ye summoned him and asked him how to quickly educate the people of Silla. After getting a satisfactory answer, he decided to let him take charge of the political affairs of Silla.

In today's Tang court, Prime Minister Cui Keli and Li Zhen, who are under the same law as Zhongshumen, are undoubtedly the leaders of civil servants. However, as the pillars of the country, they need to sit in the center, and they will not leave Chang'an easily.

Represented by Zhang Wence, a group of young officials with outstanding talents are now the backbone of the imperial civil service group. Most of them have experienced the Pinglu period. During the process of Li Ye's conquests and pacification of the country, they got a lot of opportunities for experience. Now they are full of energy and power, and they are the second-tier power of the Datang Civil Service Group.

The power of this class is very huge. Wherever the elite divisions of the Tang Dynasty planted the battle flag, they can follow in time to govern there, completely turning that place into the territory of the Tang Dynasty, and completely turning the people there into under the rule of the Tang Dynasty. of the people.

Further down, there are students from Chang'an Practice Academy, Zhang Chang'an is a representative figure among them. Compared with the seniors like Zhang Wence, their talents are more comprehensive and comprehensive, and their minds are more open-minded, and they don't have so much Confucianism in them, so they are less scruples in doing things.

This of course has pros and cons. Bravery, diligence, and relative independence of thought are their biggest characteristics, but without Confucian beliefs and Confucianism, the moral standards in their hearts are low, and it is easier to become treacherous and corrupt officials than Qingzhou Confucian scholars.

However, whether an official becomes a treacherous villain or a corrupt official, although the moral realm and beliefs are the foundation, they are only part of the factors. The most important thing is the restriction of national laws and the guidance of officialdom. For the latter, Li Ye has sufficient control ability.

From Li Zhen, Cui Keli, to Zhang Wence, Zhang Zhongsheng, and then to Zhang Changan,

These are the three levels of today's Datang civil officials. The system is complete, the foundation is profound, and there are successors, which ensure the long-term stability and prosperity of the Tang Dynasty.

As for the governance direction of Silla, in Li Ye's plan, the Andong Protectorate is also temporary. The land of Silla will sooner or later become an ordinary state and county under the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

For him personally, expanding land and opening up borders and making more people love Tang Dynasty is also related to the improvement of cultivation realm.

After clearly feeling that Da Luo Jinxian is not the ceiling of the monk's realm, Li Ye has the idea of going to see the scenery of the saint's realm, so he needs more luck from the common people. Because of this, the conquest of Silla and Wa is not the end, but just another beginning.

Li Ye's real body appeared in Silla just to determine the overall situation, and of course he wouldn't stay for too long. With his current strength, it doesn't take much time to travel around. Even if there is any situation on the front line that requires him to come forward, he can quickly reach the place where he is needed.

When the Tang Dynasty set out to conquer Silla and Japan, they didn't even use Shangguan Qingcheng, so naturally it was not the turn of King Qi to step forward. During this period of time, King Qi's Mansion next door to Old An's Mansion didn't have a moment's leisure, and it was full of chaos all day long.

The reason is that Qi Wang, who was idle, didn't know that his nerves were wrong recently, so he even found the brothel Qinger who is the best at singing and dancing in Chang'an City, and taught her the rhythm of singing and dancing.

Li Ye came out of the palace to King Qi's mansion very frequently, so naturally he didn't need any car and ceremonial guards. Walking into the moon gate in a white dragon fish suit, he saw the scene of the courtyard in full swing.

The beautifully dressed Yingying Yanyan was commanded by King Qi who was standing on the stage with one hand on his hips. He was either holding a round fan or dragging his water sleeves in his hands. Two charming-looking young ladies were whispering softly. Give various suggestions to King Qi, who has his brows upside down and is dissatisfied with his singer.

Noticing Li Ye's entry, King Qi waved his hand, indicating that two well-known men in Chang'an would lead the big guys to continue the practice, and he himself greeted Li Ye to sit at the side table and chat.

Qing Guan'er naturally saw Li Ye, but didn't pay much attention to it. People who can discuss friendship with Qi Wang's peers are not qualified to come to see Li Ye. As for the new singers Li Maozhen bought, they also don't know Li Ye's identity.

"Why are you suddenly interested in music, rhythm, singing and dancing?" Li Ye threw a grape into his mouth, and seeing King Qi's pretty face flushed with busyness, it was clear that he was very concerned about these things, so he asked curiously.

Except for court meetings and dealing with government affairs, Li Ye seldom stays in the palace. After all, he has no close friends. He either goes to three provinces and six ministries to drink tea with Cui Keli and Li Zhen, takes the elder and younger commanders out of the city to play around, or goes to Qi Wang's mansion to find him. Li Maozhen.

Compared with the former two, Li Ye prefers to come to King Qi's mansion. King Qi, who is carefree after leaving the battlefield, is always full of energy. Even if Li Ye becomes the emperor, Li Ye should give Li Ye a roll of his eyes when he is frivolous in his words. He is also unambiguous when he is hungry, he will still push Li Ye to the kitchen when he is hungry, and he will show his teeth and paws and never give up when he is drinking.

Hanging around with King Qi like this, Li Ye has always been relaxed and happy. When he is tired of dealing with major national affairs, he will come to King Qi's mansion to adjust his mood.

King Qi stopped feeding grapes into his mouth, and said slowly, "Do you think I have problems learning rhythm, singing and dancing?"

Li Ye tasted the fresh grapes that just went on the market this autumn, and said without thinking, "It's something that ordinary women like. You are a famous general and vassal king in the battlefield, so you might not be able to handle such delicate tasks, right?"

As soon as Li Ye said this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. As expected, King Qi raised his eyebrows when he heard his words, glared at him viciously, bit his cheek and said word by word: "You think I don't look like a woman?"
