Chapter 645 Chaoxian Emperor rushes Emperor Wu!
In the past, Li Xin and the emperor were together, and most of the time they were spent on business. Basically, the emperor would be sure of whatever Li Xin told the emperor. This time, it was the first time that Li Xin had been asking the emperor to do business seriously.
The emperor stood there, remained silent for a while, and then reached out to help Li Xin up.
"You and my brother, there is no need to do this. No matter what you say, I will be sure of you."
Li Xin took a deep breath and stood up with the flow.
The emperor pulled him to the chair aside and sat down, and then asked Xiao Zheng to move another chair. The two of them sat face to face. The emperor looked at Li Xin and asked, "Chang'an, are you going to save Li Ye's family because... the Li family?"
In terms of bloodline, Li Ye is Li Xin's cousin, and Li Ye's grandchildren are Li Xin's cousin. Now that Li Xin is so persistent in saving people, the emperor will naturally think of this aspect.
Li Xin was silent for a while, and finally lowered his head slightly.
"Your Majesty, there are not only blood relationships, interest relationships, but also right and wrong, and pure friendship. When I was in the capital in my early years, I was fortunate to meet many noble people. Your Majesty, you are one, Master Ye is one, and this former Jingzhao Yin is also barely considered one. At that time, everyone in the capital kept away from the Marquis of Pingnan, like avoiding the plague god. Only this Li Mansion Lord took the initiative to greet and helped Li Shen handle the funeral. I respect Li Ye, not because of his blood relatives, but because of this honesty."
"In the capital, there are few upright people, and not many can be officials in the court. I know that Li Ye's family may not be able to escape the crime, so I can only pray to Your Majesty to give up the grace of heaven and leave some blood for their family."
Speaking of this, Li Xin stood up and bowed deeply to the emperor: "I am on behalf of Li Ye, thanking Your Majesty for your kindness."
The emperor sat on the chair, frowned and thought for a long time, and then sighed: "I can't see through you like Chang'an. Sometimes you are as experienced and sophisticated as an old fox, but sometimes you are like a young man, obsessed with right and wrong."
Li Xin smiled.
"Your Majesty, I think being sophisticated is a good thing, but not all of it is a good thing. If you are sophisticated in your life and do things at all times, and look at people with benefits, then you will add a lot of energy."
"I am not that unfathomable. What I have done in the past few years is just a dream in the middle of the night. Ask yourself and you can feel ashamed of your heart."
The emperor waved his hand and signaled Li Xin to sit down.
He sighed and said, "I can't do it if you can have a clear conscience in Chang'an."
"In the past few years, I have often dreamed of my father..."
Speaking of this, the emperor didn't continue.
Both of them knew each other well. No matter what decree the Emperor Chengde left, they led their troops to the palace to rebel, which was a real rebellion. This could naturally be eliminated in the Taikang Dynasty, and no one would dare to mention it. However, when Emperor Taikang was buried, in the future, in history books, they would never be able to escape the pen with a blade like a blade.
Li Xin whispered: "Your Majesty, many things are unchanged, but you can try your best to save them. If Your Majesty is famous for all ages, far superior to the late emperor or even comparable to the Wu Emperor, then it is not only this dynasty, but also the great light of Your Majesty will be enough to cover up some flaws after thousands of generations."
Li Xin's words were sincere. After all, there are two living examples in another world. Zhu Siguaman killed too many people, and let them go, but only talked about Li Er. In later generations, everyone knows that His Majesty Li Er is the eternal emperor who shines for thousands of years and is the Khan of the Heavenly Khan, but few people criticize him for the incident in the Xuanwu Gate.
This is a good way. As long as Emperor Taikang does well enough, even if future generations know about the Renchen Palace Change, they will not say that he is a thief, but that he is a good person.
The emperor smiled bitterly and said, "You said it easy."
"How powerful is Emperor Wu and Emperor Shenwen and Sacred Martial Arts and Martial Arts, and how can I compare with him?"
"Not talking about Emperor Wu, just talking about the late emperor is also a saint king that is hard to see in a century. It is not easy for me to be able to maintain the success of Chengde Dynasty, so how can I say that I will win far?"
Li Xin lowered his head and showed a smile on his face: "Your Majesty is self-deprecating. During the Chengde Dynasty, the southwest was divided and he only respected the court and did not submit. This is a problem that the late emperor had not solved for nearly 20 years. Now, your Majesty has only ascended the throne for two or three years, and has wiped out the problems of the southwest. In this regard, in later history books, Your Majesty's achievements are no less than those of the late emperor."
Speaking of this, Li Xin paused and whispered: "Besides, there is still an old enemy in the north waiting for His Majesty."
The emperor was slightly moved.
The north that Li Xin mentioned refers to the remnant Zhou in the north, which is the northern Zhou that was broken up by Ye Sheng.
More than 30 years ago, the Xianbei regime in the north was vast and occupied more than twice the territory of the Southern Jin. However, the Great Jin had a fierce man like Ye Sheng, who fought a fierce battle to destroy the slightly rotten Northern Zhou, which finally led to the unification of the world. The Great Jin pushed the border to the Youyun area. The Ye family led troops to guard Jimen Pass, and the Zhong family led troops to guard Yunzhou City, watching the two major gateways in the north, and completely defending the territory captured by Ye Sheng.
But the centipede insect is still dead without being stiff, not to mention the huge Northern Zhou Dynasty that coveted the Central Plains several times back then?
After the collapse of the Northern Zhou regime, it did not disappear. Several Yuwen royal families of the Northern Zhou Dynasty gathered tribes in the north. Although they could not enter Jimen Pass for the time being, they could not break Yunzhou City and did not have any major climate. However, after more than 30 years of rest and recuperation, most of the remnants of the Northern Zhou Dynasty had recovered.
When Li Xin was in charge of the orders of Emperor De and went to the north to deliver things, he had encountered the culprit tribe fighting for autumn wind on the border at Xiao Chenji near Jimen Pass. That was Ye Ming intentionally gave Li Xin a great contribution and it was also the beginning of Li Xin's rise to the top.
Although that battle was under the control of Ye Ming, since these remnants of Zhou tribes dared to enter the Great Jin border, they must have a certain confidence and even had the power to threaten the border.
The emperor frowned and said, "Chang'an, do you mean, I want me to go... to clean up the remnants of the Zhou Dynasty?"
After the battle more than 30 years ago, the Northern Zhou and Southern Shu naturally fell apart and no longer existed. However, the Jin Dynasty was also "seriously injured", so that in the following 30 years, they tried their best to recuperate. For nineteen years, the Chengde Dynasty almost defended the border and did not use troops to the remnants of Zhou in the north.
Li Xin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Now that the imperial guards are seriously injured, it is not realistic for the court to use troops in the north at the moment. Even if it is possible, people in the world will inevitably criticize Your Majesty for being powerful and powerful. However, I think that if Your Majesty wants to be the same as Emperor Wu, this matter must be put into future plans, and at least we must start preparing now."
"Now that the southwest is stable, Your Majesty has an imperial guard, the Ye family and the family. In addition, the accumulation of the late emperor's dynasty over the past few decades, such a foundation, it would be a pity if Your Majesty could not expand his territory and only be a successful king."
Expanding territory is the lifelong dream of almost every emperor and their greatest honor!
Hearing Li Xin say this, although Emperor Taikang didn't say much on the surface and just frowned and thought, Li Xin could hear it clearly.
