Chapter 241 Residuals (Chapter 998 for the Northern Song Dynasty(1/3)
Northern Liao.
Ning Xing.
In late autumn, the surrounding area of Ningxing City looks gray and everything is gradually withering.
But there are still strange flowers in the palace.
He Lianfeng was in his forties and looked gentle and elegant. He looked at the flowers and trees in front of him with his hands behind his hands. For a long time, a chamberlain came forward and said, "Your Majesty, Commander Helian wants to see you."
He Lianfeng nodded...
Standing outside the palace was a woman in her thirties. The woman had long hair reaching her waist, a slightly thin cheek, and a pair of cold eyes. She pressed the hilt of the sword at her waist with her right hand, lightly opened her red lips, and blew away the trace of light blocking her eyes.
Long hair.
A chamberlain came out and glanced at the woman, "Commander Helian, please follow us."
The woman is He Lianhong, the commander of the Eagle Guard.
As the force closest to the emperor, every commander of the Eagle Guard has been a confidant of the emperor since the day it was established. Helianhong was born in the royal family and had advanced cultivation. The late emperor arranged a marriage for her, and the groom was considered young.
If a promising leader does not take the wrong path, he will rarely be seen in the temple.
It is not an exaggeration to say that this kind of marriage is a perfect match, but on the wedding night, He Lianhong took a long sword and stabbed the groom to death with one blow.
This incident shocked Ningxing City. The late emperor had Helian Hong taken away, but he finally released her.
Some people say that the groom angered He Lianhong; some say that the groom drank too much and beat He Lianhong; some say that the groom likes men...
Not long after the late emperor passed away, the first thing He Lianfeng did when he ascended the throne was to clean up the Eagle Guards, and the person who did this was He Lianhong. Then she took the Eagle Guards and began to clean up the palace, making things smooth for He Lianfeng
He made great contributions when he ascended the throne.
The chamberlain distanced herself from He Lianhong, but she still felt the coldness behind her and her neck felt chilly.
Terrible woman!
Back then, Helian Hong killed countless people in the palace with a long sword and imprisoned some of the most noble women. Those women were suffering in the cold palace, and their howls could be heard from time to time in the middle of the night.
Those curses make people frightened, and the one who has been cursed the most is Helian Hong.
——Bitch, you will be alone for the rest of your life!
When Helianhong heard these curses, he just said indifferently: "Why do you need a man to not be lonely?"
Then everyone knew that this man had lost all love between men and women.
In the harem, He Lianfeng was still admiring the flowers.
"I have met His Majesty."
He Lianfeng did not turn around, "How is Tanzhou?"
"Tanzhou Helianchun keeps drinking and eating all day long, and plays songs every night."
He Lianfeng leaned over and smelled the fragrance of the flowers, and said lightly: "He is pretending to be crazy and acting stupid."
"Your Majesty is wise."
"I know that he is putting on a show, but I still send people to check on him every now and then. It's not to guard against him, it's just that the palace is bored and I want to watch a show."
He turned around and said gently: "How is it over in Northern Xinjiang?"
He Lianhong said: "After the envoy left, the main force in Northern Xinjiang did not move."
"Chenzhou." He Lianfeng walked slowly.
He Lianhong followed behind, "The Lin'an army still hasn't moved, but news came earlier that a county sent more than two thousand troops into the grassland."
"Which one?"
"Peace."
"I've never heard of it."
"Taiping belongs to Chenzhou, and it was defeated seven times by Waxie, one of the three major tribes."
He Lianfeng stopped, stretched out his hand to support the wooden pillars of the verandah, and looked up at the carved patterns on it, "Lin Ya's defeat surprised me. The one who surprised me the most was Huang Chunhui."
He turned around and said, "It is said that this man is very old, but in this battle he is very experienced and sharp, with accurate judgment and extreme forbearance. Chen Fangli and the others were not angry and suggested that they send an envoy to use force to overwhelm others. I am aware of such playful actions.
I can't mobilize Huang Chunhui, but I didn't expect that Chenzhou wouldn't move either. Interesting, how about the governor of Chenzhou?"
Chen Fangli is the king of Beiyuan and He Lianfeng's confidant.
"Liu Qing, the governor of Chenzhou, originally had a bad temper and offended his superiors, so he was driven to Northern Xinjiang. This man fought steadily in Chenzhou. In the last battle of Northern Xinjiang, Liu Qing led the Chenzhou army to raid the right flank of our army and attacked
It’s quite tough.”
"In this way, he can be regarded as a talent." He Lianfeng smiled, "If there were no such talents in Northern Xinjiang, they would have been swept into dust by my cavalry. But what is interesting is that Northern Xinjiang turned out to be the place where officials of the Tang Dynasty were exiled. Those
The officials who were driven to northern Xinjiang were the most outstanding talents in the Tang Dynasty."
Helian Hong was silent.
He Lianfeng smiled and said: "In other words, talents from the Tang Dynasty are not popular in the officialdom."
He Lianhong said softly: "This is a sign of defeat."
"When talented people are driven away, it means that the officialdom of the Tang Dynasty has been controlled by those mediocre people. These people can't do anything else. What they are best at is uniting the party and opposing those who are different."
He Lianhong said: "Then Daliao will attack with a large army."
He Lianfeng shook his head and sighed: "But Emperor Xuande and Emperor Wu left behind too many talents, and those talents have been dragging the Tang Dynasty forward."
"Those people are getting older too."
"Yes!" He Lianfeng's brows became awe-inspiring, "I will lead hundreds of thousands of cavalry to wait for the danger. As soon as the Tang Dynasty declines, I will attack with all my strength."
He entered the hall, and his voice echoed.
"Li Mi, I can destroy you by turning my palm!"
He Lianhong bowed slightly and said, "Your Majesty is brave!"
Turning around, she glanced at the south, with a sarcastic look in her eyes.
After Li Mi and his son took over the Tang Dynasty, everyone could see the gradual decline of the Tang Dynasty. Even at the beginning, there were several victories, but as the commander of the Eagle Guard, He Lianhong knew that the Tang Dynasty was already riddled with holes and could only wait for
Someone pushed from the inside and knocked down the big house. Faced with such a dangerous situation, Li Mi indulged in pleasure and could be called a prodigal.
After leaving the palace, there were Eagle Guards waiting outside.
"Commander."
"What's the matter?"
"Washe is destroyed."
"Yeah! Make it clear."
"The Taiping Army attacked and defeated Wa Xie's army, and Hua Zhuo died."
"How many people are there in the Tang army?" He Lianhong asked.
"More than two thousand people."
"How many people are there in the Vashe tribe?"
"Nearly 20,000."
He Lianhong took a deep breath, "Who is in charge, Liu Qing?"
"No, it's Yang Xuan."
"Who is Yang Xuan?"
"Sima Chenzhou...former magistrate of Taiping County."
…
It rained in Chang'an in late autumn.
"One autumn rain and another cold!"
Xin Quan is lighting a fire.
First, he lit the firewood, then added the charcoal. The flame rushed out from the gaps in the charcoal, along with the smoke. Xin Quan smelled the smell and said happily: "This is the smell."
Putting the small pot on the table, adding water, and listening to the sound of the charcoal fire exploding, Xin Quan thought nothing of it.
"I've met Mr. Zhao."
"Mr. Zhao looks very energetic!"
"Please, Mr. Zhao."
Zhao Sanfu pressed the handle of the knife with his left hand, narrowed his eyes and nodded, and strode forward.
Behind him, two stakes followed closely.
When he arrived outside the house, Zhao Sanfu stopped and waved his hand, then backed away from the two stakes.
Zhao Sanfu lifted his windbreaker and said, "Master."
