Chapter 46: Blind obedience

?

Chang'an.

At the court meeting, Pei Min reported to Li Yan in detail the results achieved by Li Guangbi and Geshuhan.

In fact, Li Yan and the civil and military officials of the court had already known about the victory of the two armies, but after hearing this formal report and understanding the details, everyone still couldn't help but cheer for it.

The whole court was filled with celebration.

The words "Long live Your Majesty, the Tang Dynasty will be victorious" are endless.

"Your Majesty, I have the credit and report it!"

Miao Jinqing, the Minister of Personnel, stood up with a happy look on his face.

"It is a great good thing to be assured. These thieves have no place and are trapped in the northern part of the thief. The Central Plains will inevitably be in turmoil. I suggest that we persuade all directions to surrender with the great emperor's kindness. On the one hand, it reflects our magnanimous and kindness, and on the other hand, it can achieve the effect of not fighting and defeating others, avoiding unnecessary casualties. In Luoyang City, Chen Xilie was an old friend. He was trapped in the thief, but his heart was towards my Tang Dynasty. He was willing to be an envoy to go to Luoyang to persuade him to surrender to the world..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of angrily shouted in the hall.

"Breaking nonsense!"

This shout made the temple tremble.

All the civil and military officials in the court did not dare to say anything for a moment.

Pei Min stood up angrily. Miao Jinqing's proposal seemed extremely stupid to him, and it hit his heart's taboo.

The Tang Dynasty was destroyed by vassal states, but how did vassal states be formed?

Li Longji has to pay a small part of the responsibility, Li Heng has to pay a large part of the responsibility, and Li Yu has to pay a small part of the responsibility.

Li Longji's main responsibility was to fatten An Lushan, while Li Heng and Li Yu's responsibility was to be too indulgent to the rebel generals.

Especially Li Heng, he was afraid of being too serious and did not dare to delegate power, and did not dare to let Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi and other groups of brave generals make great contributions, fearing that they would be unable to restrain them. Many times, if they could not fight, they would not fight.

When the rebels surrendered, they thought they had won. Not only did they not punish and do not withdraw their military power, but they instead gave them additional titles to the rebel general!

This led to a very funny situation. Rebellion is the fastest and best choice for local forces who want to be promoted and wealthy. Rebellion will be rebelled and then recruit peace and will definitely be promoted and wealthy.

This is also the reason why An Qingxu rebelled and surrendered, Shi Siming and Shi Chaoyi rebelled and surrendered.

During the mid-Tang Dynasty, most of the vassal states that were most harmful to the Tang Dynasty were surrendered generals who belonged to the Anshi camp.

They are rebellious, unethical bandits, hoping that they will feel the emperor's kindness and reform themselves?

It’s better to expect the sow to climb a tree, which is more reliable.

Li Hengzhi is stupid here. He dared not use Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, the loyal and righteous generals, to suppress the rebellion, for fear that they will make great contributions and have great achievements, so he chose to forgive a group of morally corrupt generals.

Pei Min will never let this kind of mistake go.

"What is the emperor's grace?"

"The emperor's kindness is for those who have loyalty and righteousness in their hearts and who know etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame."

"What is loyalty and righteousness? Loyalty is the rightness of virtue. Righteousness, respect for capital is the greatest. Only by correcting oneself can transform others, so correcting one's mind can cultivate oneself, and even managing the family, governing the country, and pacifying the world."

"Lei Haiqing, Zhang Yehu, Liyuan actors, most of you can't afford it. An thief captured Chang'an City, captured more than 300 Liyuan children and palace music officials into Luoyang City, and held a banquet in Ningbi Pool to celebrate. An thief asked Lei Haiqing and the music officials to play the pipa palace music, asking the palace maids and concubines to sing and dance to cheer them up. Lei Haiqing held the pipa in his hand, and was filled with righteous indignation, and he also denounced An thief's crime. An thief was angry and ordered his subordinates to use a knife to cut off Lei Haiqing's lips. Lei Haiqing still scolded him, and An thief urgently ordered his tongue to be cut off. Lei Haiqing held blood in his mouth, endured the severe pain, and tried his best to point the pipa in his hand at An thief's head."

"In the end, An Thief was so angry that he tied Lei Haiqing to the front of the horse hall, and Ling Chi executed him..."

"Zhang Yehu is the same. He is afraid that he will not be able to stand the punishment, so he compromises with An Zhe and bites off his tongue. He would rather die than sing an opera for An Zhe."

"You have said more than once in Chang'an that the emperor was disgusted with things and was too kind to the Liyuan. Yes, there are 300 people in the Liyuan, who are indeed actors, but even actors know what loyalty is."

"Chen Xilie? He was highly valued by the Emperor. He was appointed as the Secretary-General, Minister of Works, Master of Jixian Academy, Minister of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School of the School

"Don't tell me about loyalty and righteousness for traitors like Chen Xilie, Zhang Ye, and Da Xi Xun. They don't have any. In this life, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame, and no one can tell them the name."

Pei Min does not despise those who are afraid of death. This person is not worthy of his own fear of death.

Before he really reached that point, Pei Min himself could not guarantee that he would have the courage to face the butcher knife.

Because of this, those who dare to face the butcher's knife seem amazing.

Pei Min could endure the fear of surrendering to death, but could not stand the surrender. After the surrender, he would do his best to be promoted and wealthy for the new master. Then the new master was defeated and he would in turn say loyalty to the old master.

Do you really think that the word "loyalty and righteousness" is so cheap?

After scolding Pei Min, Miao Jinqing became a fool. He dared not speak out and retreated in shame.

Zhang Jiuling said: "It's just that he is so tough, and he is afraid that An Thief's old subordinates will unite and fight to the death. That's not good."

Zhang Jiuling is Pei Min's confidant, but he is not the kind of puppet who blindly follows, but he belongs to the kind of person who dares to speak.

Pei Min's power became increasingly powerful. Most of the things he said were not afraid to question. Instead, it was Pei Min's newly promoted confidants who dared to tell the truth in the temple.

Pei Min also stopped the fire and said, "You must figure out one thing that is that the current situation is that they ask us, not us ask them... This is a matter of principle. They do not have the power to bargain with us, and we do not accept any bargaining. To reduce it, you can hand over the military power and consider how to deal with it based on your own talent and talent. After following the rebels, rebelled, and want to be promoted and wealthy? How can such a good thing be done in the world?"

"As for those who are reluctant to give up their power, are reluctant to give up their current status, and want to maintain all of this through surrender, no matter who they are, they don't want to. Instead, the court should show its determination and not accept any conditions for the traitor. If they do not surrender, kill, or kill them, they must not develop this kind of atmosphere, and they cannot indulge a traitor for the sake of the so-called emperor's grace."

"His Majesty……"

Pei Min bowed to Li Yan and said, "You cannot be greedy for immediate interests and leave unknown troubles in the future. The power that should be established must be established, and the battle that should be fought must be fought. And I believe in Guo Ziyi's strength..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Yan said without hesitation: "I also believe in the judgement of the prince, and it depends on what the prince said. I am magnanimous and willing to accept those who have turned to evil and are willing to surrender sincerely, but I will never accept any conditions."

Pei Min frowned and looked at the arrogant Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. The problem was found: After An Lushan's rebellion, Li Yan dared not think about it now. He had no confidence at all and did not dare to have any independent ideas, for fear that the wrong decision would cause chaos in the world again.
