Chapter 326 The Problem of Imperial Power
heaven.
Ye Qing sat high on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, looked at his sweet wife Haitang, and said, "How does it feel to be promoted from the queen of the world to the queen of heaven?"
The newly born Tianhou Haitang said: "I don't feel that there has been any change. I don't think the former Jade Emperor is half as powerful as you. It really doesn't make any difference whether you can take this Heavenly Court or not."
Ye Qing shook his head and said: "If the name is not correct, the words will not go well, and if the words are not correct, the matter will be unclear, and I am also thinking of the future generations of the Tang Dynasty and future generations."
Tianhou Haitang said, "What's your majesty's meaning?"
Ye Qing said: "Since the great ancestor Li Yuan of the Tang Dynasty, the inheritance of the throne has been a big problem. Emperor Taizong came to power through the Xuanwumen coup, and I also came to power through the Xuanwumen coup. The two successive generations of promising monarchs all passed the coup. If you don't think of a solution, if you have this bad idea with Emperor Taizong, Datang will inevitably have coup d'etat in the future."
What Ye Qing said was a very practical issue. Although the Datang Empire had reached the age of electricity in terms of productivity, there was no such thing as a constitutional monarchy. On the contrary, the power of the Tang Empire's monarchy has surpassed that of the Ming and Qing dynasties. The emperor's authority is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and he is arbitrary. Although the prime minister has not been revoked, he is unable to check and balance the emperor.
Under this circumstance, not only did the emperor's throne not depreciate, but it became more glorious and more attractive to people than before.
In the original Tang Dynasty, after Li Shimin made a bad start, Li Shimin's sons rebelled one after another, and they were suppressed by Li Shimin. What's more, Li Shimin's son Li Zhi directly inherited his father's business and brought his father's Zhaoyi Wu Meiniang into the harem.
It is not the key that this heavy-handed father and son inherit a woman's drama. The key is that after Li Zhi's death, Wu Zetian seized power and became the only female emperor in Chinese history. To say that this old Li family is a pain in the ass, it's just that his son seizes power, and even his daughter-in-law is not alone.
After Wu Zetian, Empress Wei poisoned her husband Tang Zhongzong Li Xian to death. After Empress Wei was killed by Li Longji, Princess Taiping also had to send a shot, which ended up giving Li Longji a head. Li Longji's methods are superb, he is obedient to his son's suppression, and dominates his daughter-in-law Yang Yuhuan. These Li Longji were also taken up by his son and became the emperor.
In the late Tang Dynasty, even the eunuchs participated in the palace coup, and it was commonplace to abolish the emperor.
Since the beginning of Li Shimin, this old Li family has been playing all kinds of wonderful palace coups. It was a lot of fun.
What's more, Ye Qing has used the second coup d'etat at Xuanwumen to tell the world that a coup d'etat has a bright future. This is equivalent to encouraging future generations in disguised form. If it is not curbed, I am afraid that after Ye Qing's Xuanwumen 2.0 version, descendants will have to come to Xuanwumen 3.0, Xuanwumen 4.0, Xuanwumen 5.0...
Various versions of the Xuanwumen coup will spring up like mushrooms after a rain.
The current descendants are all Ye Qing's descendants. Ye Qing's essence has long been eroded by Li Chengqian's body, and Ye Qing's descendants are naturally Ye Qing's true blood descendants.
Ye Qing doesn't want his descendants to kill each other every day. For the sake of an emperor's throne, he will perform countless dog blood dramas, so Ye Qing's killing the sky as the emperor of heaven also has this consideration.
Tianhou Haitang understood at once: "Could it be that Your Majesty wants to use the heavenly court to solve the problem of the handover of power between the dynasties on earth?"
Ye Qing nodded and said: "Yes, I am a saint, immortal and immortal, and I will not always be nostalgic for the throne of the emperor. When I ascend to the top of the emperor, the throne of the emperor will naturally cede to my descendants. And descendants should also practice renunciation. The system, this renunciation system, is supervised by the heavenly court. After renunciation, the emperor can be conferred a god according to the merits of governing the country. The highest can be enshrined as Emperor Ziwei, Emperor Chen Gou, Emperor Dongyue, etc., and the minor can be named as a constellation God. This also solves the problem of inheritance of imperial power once and for all."
"Heavenly court has formed a connection with the dynasties on earth. From then on, His Majesty's descendants are the real 'Son of Heaven'. Under the supervision of His Majesty's Heavenly Court, it is difficult for the descendants to play any conspiracy and tricks, so that the imperial power can be passed on smoothly, and There was no bloody coup." After thinking about it for a while, Haitang felt that Ye Qing's idea was brilliant, and praised, "Your Majesty is indeed brilliant."
Ye Qing smiled and said: "It's not very clever, but many things that are difficult for human beings have become extremely simple for saints and immortals. Hey, that Wutian Buddha has already arrived in heaven, and I and he have not yet It's time to meet him once we've really met. By the way, I'll hit him, lest he don't know how good I am."
Ye Qing was speaking and felt that Wu Tian had already reached the outside of the heavenly court, and now Ye Qing displayed the dharma image of a saint. But seeing thousands of auspicious clouds, purple air rising in the east, immortal winds swirling, dragons and phoenixes flying together, the goddess scattered flowers... All kinds of incredible and wonderful appearances show the extraordinaryness of the saint.
Outside the heavenly court, Wutian's face was heavy, and black lotuses began to rise. Sitting on the black lotus, he also showed his boundless dharma appearance. In a short time, Wutian evolved all kinds of demon appearances, including demon kings, witches, and devils.
Ye Qing flew to Wutian in an instant, and looked at Wutian, Ye Qing said: "Wutian, you are finally here. But the heaven has been occupied by me, I will not let you go, you There is no reason for people in this Buddhist realm to occupy the heavenly court."
"Who are you?" Wutian felt the wonderful and profound Dao rhythm on Ye Qing's body, and felt Ye Qing's unfathomable aura. He already knew that Ye Qing was the real behind-the-scenes figure in the Tang Empire. The existence of God.
However, although Wutian is profound, he does not know Ye Qing's identity and origin, but within the Three Realms, such a powerful master cannot be born out of thin air. Wutian cultivated into a saint, has experienced hundreds of kalpas and thousands of lives, and has endured countless joys and sorrows, and only then did he cultivate into a saint.
Ye Qing is the dharma of a saint, and he is also the most powerful of the saints. No heaven can believe that Ye Qing was really cultivated by the emperor of the world. After all, the emperor of the world is only forty years old. Even if he started to cultivate in his mother's womb, if he can cultivate into a god in forty years, it is already a great blessing.
"Who am I? Eighteen years ago, I had a fight with the Tathagata Buddha in Lingshan and injured the Tathagata Buddha. You also took advantage of the opportunity to let the Tathagata Buddha nirvana earlier. Don't you remember this? "Ye Qing said, showing an unfathomable smile.
Wutian lost his voice: "You are Patriarch Subhuti, the true teacher of Sun Wukong?!"
