After carefully understanding the situation in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, Qu Jie saw that it was still early, so she naturally learned about the situation in the capital, and this time her harvest was even greater.
Good guy, it deserves to be the capital of a country.
There are a lot of secrets, and there are a lot of troublemakers.
How many corpses of normal or abnormal deaths were secretly discovered, things buried underground, secrets hidden in dark rooms, and even gold and silver from hedgehogs.
Not much to say.
Anyway, it has been nearly a year since the founding of the country, and most of the nobles have been passed down for at least two generations. They have experienced four emperors, and now they are the fifth emperor. How can any family have no means to reserve their own means, plot secretly, or hide secrets!
These are undoubtedly not enough to surprise the original person.
What surprised the original person was that he had rebelled twice, failed twice, and was completely demoted to a useless person. The imprisoned King of Han still refused to give up and was planning an assassination plan. The brothers of the other former emperors were the current Emperor Xuanwu. The uncles were also very restless.
There are also signs of planning for rebellion, and some have prepared armored weapons, similar to the original ones.
This does not refer to courage, but to the fact that their preparations are almost the same. However, the original preparations did not expect the rebellion to be successful. He just wanted to use this to clearly show his attitude of rebellion. It is conceivable that the remaining princes Premeditated rebellion is ridiculous.
However, they wanted to rebel one after another. It is estimated that the core reason is that the attitude of the late emperor and the current Emperor Xuanwu was too kind to the King of Han. After all, the King of Han's first rebellion was basically fine, he was just deprived of his fiefdom, and he was not killed the second time he rebelled. Just imprisoned.
Who wouldn't want to try such a risk-free rebellion, and if it succeeds, even if it fails, it will only mean the abolition of the fiefdom. But ever since their father rebelled and ascended the throne, the power of their vassal king has been continuously weakened, and now They were directly trapped in the capital, and they were not allowed to go back to their own land to be happy.
There is basically no difference between having a fiefdom or not.
Why not give it a try?
However, they forgot that the abolition of fiefdoms was an operation done by the late emperor when he was in power, and it was an operation done by their own brother when he was in power. Now his nephew is in charge, haha...
In addition, what surprised Qu Jie even more was that the rebellious thoughts of several princes were instigated by some civil servants and manipulators behind their backs. Moreover, these civil servants were still encouraging the princes to contact their nobles. On the surface, they wanted to contact more nobles to increase their own strength and increase the success rate, but Qu Jie felt that they did this simply to lure more noble generals into trouble and weaken the power of the noble generals in the court.
After all, if the prince rebels, the prince himself may be able to survive, but that may not be the case for the nobles who follow him in the rebellion, and there is a high probability that their families will be confiscated and their families destroyed.
Without a great war, it would be difficult to create new heroes.
At that time, the noble's strength will naturally be damaged.
Civil servants can take the opportunity to gain more say, not among the people, but in the court.
Thinking back to the previous battles to seize the throne, most nobles participated, and civil servants rarely took sides directly. For example, when the late emperor and the King of Han fought for the throne, if the late emperor had not forgiven the King of Han first, but strictly followed the rebellion, I'm afraid. The number of nobles in the court was reduced by one-third, so it is difficult to say whether the late emperor forgave the King of Han because of his deep brotherhood, or to avoid an imbalance of power in the court and civilian control of the government.
"Oh my god, these civil servants are too scary.
When Emperor Qiankun was in power, under the absolute intimidation of Emperor Qiankun and his merciless execution of officials, the civil servants almost had no chance of getting ahead. Later, when Emperor Wenzhi, who was taught by them, came to power, they began to They desperately suppressed the generals and nobles, and almost all the actual control and voice in the court fell into their hands.
Later, Emperor Yongsheng rebelled against the Qing emperor, and the reason why the other princes were able to do so smoothly was probably due to the dissatisfaction of the military officers and nobles who were excluded from the court.
Even if there is no support, it is not related to Emperor Wenzhi.
This led to him being the emperor who succeeded to the throne as an orthodox emperor, and was easily overthrown by the vassal king. Then Emperor Yongsheng should have ruled the world together with the nobles, and the civil servants continued to be suppressed.
Kuji
Although the emperor has only been emperor for a short time, he has been in charge of the country for more than ten years. He should be well aware of the actual situation in the court. He is very aware of the consequences of the power of civil servants, and must maintain a balance, so he let his brother go. For Yi Ma, the important thing is not to save his brother's life, but to save the lives of those nobles who rebelled with his brother, so as to prevent the civil and military forces in the court from becoming unbalanced.
He should have some other operations in the future, but it is a pity that his life was short and his death was too sudden. He may not even have had time to teach his son the emperor's mental skills. However, Emperor Xuanwu was not stupid. Although the King of Han rebelled again, which made him very angry, he also exercised restraint. He suppressed the anger in his heart and just imprisoned him, but treated Xungui lightly.
The current operation of the civil servants is to force Emperor Xuanwu to kill the distinguished nobles. If he doesn't kill once he rebels, then do it twice. If twice fails, then three times. There is always a limit to human patience. I don't believe that Emperor Xuanwu has never been angry.
Just a teenager.
How could you possibly endure it?
In order to control the court, these civil servants really did everything possible. The most important thing is that they probably felt that everything they did was right and all for the purpose of promoting the holy way. After all, the emperor was the one that Confucian students respected most. Governing from the top means that the emperor doesn't care about anything and they take care of it, and the world will naturally be peaceful.
But I don’t want to think about whether each of them has this ability. With them, how can they resist foreign enemies! "
Just relying on the information collected in various parts of the capital tonight, Qu Jie was able to roughly deduce the current situation in the court. On the surface, it seemed peaceful, but the civil servants had already sharpened their swords to honor the nobles. Poor most of the honorary officials Gui is acting like a fool and has no idea.
There were even private contacts with several princes.
I don’t know whether he is stupid or brave.
The nobles of the past dynasties have always been unable to fight against civil servants. It is indeed not unreasonable. How can such a stupid person be able to fight!
There are obviously so many lessons learned.
But they still don’t know whether to live or die.
On the contrary, in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion, because there is only one title left and no serious actual duties, it is really not of much help to the princes, and no one is too lazy to contact their family.
So nothing happens at the moment.
Alas, Qu Jie even hates the fact that iron cannot become steel. If they can also participate in it, it will save her the trouble of rebelling. But on the contrary, Qu Jie is quite happy. I am not alone in my ways. There are so many princes accompanying her. They planned a rebellion together and really killed all the nine tribes.
Let’s all come together, and let’s go together.
On the road to hell, couldn’t the Guo family have some company?
