Xianyu Zhongtong and Yang Guozhong have a close relationship. Yang Guozhong came to power thanks to Xianyu Zhongtong, who was a businessman. At the same time, An Lushan, who was serving as a censor in the capital, was also close to the Yang brothers and sisters, and officials in Chang'an actually served as Jiedu envoys. Only Yang Guozhong and An Lushan were appointed, and Huangfu Weiming's official appointment had not yet been made.
On weekdays, Yang Guozhong and others worked together to fight against Li Linfu, making Chang'an uneasy.
Although Gao Buyi's move was intended to reduce Yang Guozhong's power, his ultimate goal was still An Lushan. He thought that while An Lushan could still control it, he would first make him leave Chang'an in shock and make him unsure. The emperor's intention was to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger to see if he could find a way to solve the crisis in the chaos.
After all, An Lushan had not been serving as Fan Yang's Jiedushi for a long time, and Pei An's influence in Fan Yang was still there. With the bargaining chips An Lushan had now, he would not dare to rebel as long as he was not pushed into a hurry.
After the imperial edict was written, Gao Buyi read it again in person, and then glanced at the powerful man who was still kneeling on the ground. He showed no intention of letting him get up. He opened the box containing the jade seal and stamped the imperial seal on it.
"Chen Xuan!"
"I'm here!"
"Immediately declare this imperial edict to the world, without any mistakes!"
"My lord, take your orders!"
The reason why Gao Buyi followed the Mingzhao was not to give some people time to react, so as not to cause trouble. However, this also created the first time since the Tang Dynasty that the emperor issued a major change in the edict during Xiu Mu, which would inevitably cause an uproar.
After Chen Xuan left, Gao Buyi said: "Come here, give Pei Xiang the purple and gold court uniform!" The purple and gold court uniform was the highest honor in the Tang Dynasty, and by the end of the Tang Dynasty, very few people would get it.
After putting on the robes, seals and ribbons, Pei An paid homage.
"Please, my beloved, please go home. Get some rest these days. After the Lantern Festival, it will be a new year, a new year and a new atmosphere! At that time, I will still have to rely on all of you, my beloved."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace! I will take my leave!"
Watching Pei An and Huangfu Weiming walk out of the hall, Gao Buyi sighed with emotion: "What a good ancient people! They don't hold grudges, only remember grace. Their eyes are full of sincerity."
Outside the hall, Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong, who were still standing in the cold wind, saw Pei An coming out in purple and gold robes. Huangfu Weiming also looked calm and composed, and his heart skipped a beat again. Pei An looked at his two former political enemies. , with a cold look in his eyes, snorted lightly, and walked away with Huangfu Weiming.
At this time, someone from the Huangmen came out and said, "Your Majesty is tired today and won't see the ministers again. You two sirs, please come back."
Huang Men's words made Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong look at each other. In the end, the two snorted coldly at each other. They turned around and left in displeasure. Li Linfu walked towards the outside of the palace, while Yang Guozhong walked towards the harem. He was going to meet him. My sister, Concubine Yang, would like to ask you what happened today.
Watching Yang Guozhong walking towards the harem, Li Linfu's face became even more gloomy. He was refused to see the emperor. This was the first time since he became prime minister. He planned to meet Wu soon to get some first-hand information.
The Wu family he was thinking of was not an outsider, but the sister of Wu Sansi, a powerful minister of the Wu Zetian Dynasty. Because Wu Sansi had a favor to support and rebuild Lishi, and Lishi was very kind to her, after the Wu family was destroyed, Lishi got Xuanzong. In order to repay his kindness, he took care of Wu as a relative. Later, Wu married a prime minister of the dynasty. Who knew that the prime minister died early, and Wu became a widow in her forties.
At that time, Li Linfu was already a minister, and it was extremely difficult to get further. He tried many ways to no avail. Finally, he was introduced to the Wu family. This guy was already a sweet talker. The old man Xuanzong was so coaxed that he was dizzy.
Practice has proved that sweet words are like poison to women, and they are accurate once they are tried, so he soon climbed into Wu's bed, and after some hard work, Wu was impressed, and Wu came forward to say good things about Li Linfu in front of Li Shi. , Lishi would rarely refuse Wu's words, and this time was no exception, so Lishi took the opportunity to say good things about Li Linfu in front of Xuanzong. In addition, Li Linfu knew how to make money and knew how to spend money. Over time, Xuanzong felt that Li Linfu It's a talent.
Then Li Linfu became the prime minister naturally. After becoming the prime minister, Li Linfu not only did not stop his rejection of dissidents, but became even better than before. By framing the prince and ministers, he got his wish and sat on the position of right prime minister.
But it wasn't enough. He had already planned. After the New Year, he was going to do something drastic. Then he would squeeze out Li Shizhi, arrange for his own people to come up, and completely turn introspection into a one-word hall.
Who knew that Xuanzong's temperament suddenly changed, which he didn't expect.
As soon as Yang Guozhong approached the harem, he was stopped by the Imperial Guards. He was immediately furious: "You are blind, don't you recognize me?"
"Master Yang, I just received an order. From today on, foreign ministers are not allowed to step into the harem without an order."
"When did it happen?" Yang Guozhong suddenly realized at this time that something big was really going to happen.
"Just now, His Majesty personally gave the order."
"Please inform me that I would like to see the imperial concubine." Yang Guozhong said, and quietly stuffed money into the hands of the imperial concubine.
The imperial army did not refuse, but they did not inform him on his behalf: "Master Yang, I have cost you money again. To tell you the truth, from now on, the imperial concubine will not be allowed to receive foreign ministers privately, so don't embarrass me. Even if we dare to step into this door without orders, we will be killed without mercy."
"Why are you so strict all of a sudden? I haven't heard of anything serious happening."
"It's true that nothing serious happened. Don't guess, Mr. Yang. We don't know either. We are just following orders."
Yang Guozhong was confused, and finally had to walk out of the palace with suspicion. He was going to meet Mrs. Guo Guo. Mrs. Guo Guo was the most valued by the imperial concubine, and she had some unclear relations with Xuanzong, so he asked her to go into the palace to inquire. inquire about.
As a result, I came to Mrs. Guo Guo's small building and found that Mrs. Han Guo and Mrs. Qin were also there.
"What's wrong with you? What happened?" Yang Guozhong walked in and found that the three of them were a little worried.
"The decree has just come, and all the privileges of our sisters have been taken away. Now we only have the empty title of Lady of the State. Even my little sister's desire to have a bite of lychees in the future has become a luxury."
"What? Why!? Is there any news from the imperial concubine?"
"Just now, my little sister asked someone to bring news. She only said a few words, saying that we should wait and see what happens."
"Just wait and see what happens -" Yang Guozhong walked around the room, repeating this sentence back and forth. He was an ignorant person, and even if he thought about it, he didn't know what it meant. He couldn't think of it. When he was thinking about it, he thought of An Lushan.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Mrs. Guo Guo, who was half-dressed and with her breasts exposed, quickly stopped him: "What are you doing?"
"I'll find someone to inquire about. You should also start a relationship and inquire in many ways." After saying that, he left without looking back. Mrs. Guo Guo was a den of prostitution, and he didn't want to stay for a moment longer.
