Chapter 107 5. Scholars and bandits are brothers

We should still remember that when Emperor Jingzong was mentioned earlier, he encountered two riots from the masses.The funniest thing was the second time, when Zhang Shao, a dyer, led his brothers to break into the cashier door by force, and rushed to the dragon chair to have a working meal.The reason why this matter is full of funny colors is because Zhang Shao's thinking and reality constitute a strong contrast.This incident only illustrates one problem - the people at that time had little consideration for aspiring to the imperial power, and when they acted impulsively, it was inevitable that they would make jokes.

But with the passage of time, the power of the imperial power became weaker and weaker. In the era of Yizong Li Wei, there were already many people who dared to aspire to the imperial power. With a large number of people, it was inevitable that a few people would hit the right path. The reason why the people dare to think about this issue has a lot to do with the lack of legal authority of Yizong Li Wei's ascension to the throne.In fact, Emperor Xuanzong, who was full of hatred for the people around him, liked the third son Li Zi the most. He entrusted eunuchs and privy envoys Wang Guichang, Ma Gongru, and Xuanhui South Court envoy Wang Jufang and others to support the elders. Three Li Zi ascended the throne.

In this way, Wang Guichang and the others are the most common officials in history.Generally speaking, if you want to support a solitary person, you always look for the most powerful and influential person, otherwise this solitary person will not be able to support you. However, it was the opposite in Xuanzong's case. Not only did Wang Guichang and the others have no strength, no influence, they didn't even have influence. So why did Xuanzong find these people? This is because Xuanzong is a person with a hateful personality, full of resentment for everything and everyone, because he grew up in an extremely unfair environment, and humiliation and resentment have corroded his entire body and mind.For example, people with a hate personality like to twist their strengths against the normal laws when doing things.It is manifested here in Xuanzong, that is, the less powerful the minister, the more he wants to rely on his loneliness, and the more powerful the person, the more he ignores you.

This powerful person who was excluded by Xuanzong from Tuogu was Wang Zongshi, Lieutenant of Zuo Shence Army.Wang Guichang and the others were appointed by Tuogu, and found that the first trouble was to dismiss Wang Zongshi, so they tricked Wang Zongshi to Huainan to supervise the army.Wang Zongshi had a solid heart and was ready to set off after receiving the order, but was stopped by his deputy envoy. The deputy envoy said: The emperor has been ill for so long, you only greet him through the door, and you have never seen him face to face. Now you are suddenly sent out to supervise the army. Is this true or false?

To find out whether it is true or false, you have to go to the palace to see it. Wang Zongshi went back to the palace to see, ah, Xuanzong was dead.Now Wang Zongshi became very angry, and he drew his sword and wanted to kill Wang Guichang and others. He was so frightened that Wang Guichang hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy. Type personality is screwed up. Now that Wang Zongshi has discovered a mistake, he must correct it.So Wang Zongshi abolished the power of the third son of Xuanzong's family to succeed him, and replaced him with the eldest son Xuanzong hated the most.The eldest son is Yizong Li Mi.

So what kind of personality is Yizong Li Wei? When Xuanzong ascended the throne, he was thirty-seven years old. It was a hopeless thing, but he finally became the emperor.Therefore, Xuanzong hated others saying that he was incompetent, and tried to prove that he was super capable.And the excuse for implying his lack of ability is to persuade him to establish a prince.Therefore, once the ministers persuaded him, Xuanzong felt a little disgusted with the eldest son, and after persuading him again, Xuanzong became very angry when he saw the eldest son. So Li Yu was sent to his fief, which was a heavy blow to Yizong Li Yu.

From the perspective of Yizong Li Wei, his grandmother is a family member of a prisoner who was taken into the palace, and his father is a half-mute who cannot speak by nature, which will inevitably affect his status in the palace.Finally, his father became the emperor, but he himself became a thorn in his father's eyes. So what kind of impact will this cruel reality have on Yizong Li Wei's psychology? This powerful survival pressure will squeeze his mental space to the maximum, and let his thinking fall into a vortex that cannot be stretched freely.And this means that his IQ has shrunk significantly, his character has become cowardly and his heart is full of fear-at this time, Yizong Li Wei, his personality is similar to that of Zhongzong Li Xian and Ruizong Li Dan in Wu Zetian's era. There is not much status with him, and there is not much without him. At best, it is just a transition.

This is because such people no longer have the courage to challenge themselves, so their lives lose their value. But different from Wu Zetian's era, Yizong Li Wei happened to catch up with the worst and most terrible era-the era of gangsters. This era is based on the extraordinary growth of the population. Too many idle laborers in the society can't find a serious job to do. They gather together in the mountains and fields and become refugees, deducing the wild prelude of scenes of gangsters hacking and killing each other. This underworld boss is Qiu Fu from East Zhejiang.It is said that when the black boss walked onto the stage of history, he was followed by more than a hundred pony boys carrying watermelon knives.His life growth is a mystery, no one knows who his parents are, and how he embarked on a criminal path.When the historian noticed him, he had already led the horses to capture Xiangshan County, and started eating and drinking.

Hei Boss Qiu Fu's team quickly expanded to 30,000 people, and he unceremoniously appointed himself as the envoy of soldiers and horses known all over the world, changing Yuan to Luoping and casting Yinping Tianping.Look at this posture, if the people don't have much opinion, he will be ready to take the throne. The boss of the gangster appeared, and the Confucian scholars followed him.Confucianism and thieves have been a wonderful combination in history. Whenever there are thieves and bandits, there will always be Confucian scholars who come out to settle them.This has constituted the most basic law of the development of Chinese history.

The Confucian scholar who appeared this time was Zhedong Observer Wang Shi. He only used three moves, and he beat Qiu Fu to pieces. The first move: Summon the Tubo and Uighur knights, and use the iron cavalry to slam into Qiu Fu's horse with gravity. Qiu Fu was immediately knocked to pieces. The second measure: military and civilian joint defense, the village set up a fortress, so that Qiu Fu's men can't find a place to stay. The third move: Squeeze Qiu Fu into a small place, then blow the assembly horn to launch the final general attack. After the three moves, Qiu Fu was captured alive by Wang Shi, and sent to Chang'an City as a prisoner.

However, the matter of Qiu Fu is just a fuse, and there are too many fuses burning like this in the Tang Empire at present. Wang Shi extinguished one here, and never expected that there is another one in Nanzhao Kingdom of Dali Well, even though Wang Shi has great abilities, he couldn't go to Nanzhao Kingdom to put out the fire.
