"Ah sneeze! "Ah sneeze!" Autumn has just entered, and the weather has not had time to turn cold, but Li Heng, the prince of the Tang Dynasty, kept sneezing. Every time he sneezed, there was a flow of tears, making him dizzy.
It was such a difficult life, and it was no wonder that his body couldn't bear it. A while ago, he ran from Chang'an to Lingwu in a hurry, and on the way, more than a dozen of the BMW horses that were said to be able to travel eight hundred miles a day were killed.
With great difficulty, they found a relatively safe place. Before they could catch their breath, they heard the news that Shuofang's army was rushing to defend Chang'an, but was unfortunately chased from behind by Shi Siming and his son, and was severely defeated.
When the time came, Li Heng was so frightened that he wanted to start his car and continue running to the northwest. Thanks to the advice of Fang Guan, Du Hongjian, Wei Shaoyou, Cui Yi, Li Han, Pei Mian and other veterans, he reluctantly managed to
Agree to stay for a few days and continue to wait and see what happens.
As the saying goes, good things happen to people all the time. Just when Li Heng and others were in fear all day long, like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, a piece of good news shocked everyone. Anxi Army interview envoy, Dawan Governor Wang Xun and Wang Mingyun, led
With tens of thousands of exhausted troops under his command, Sun Xiaozhe was defeated in Yongle Plains. He killed more than 7,000 enemy soldiers and captured countless war horses, armor and baggage. Sun Xiaozhe retreated in embarrassment and ran back from Fengtian City.
Chang'an and Anxi troops took advantage of the victory to pursue and almost recaptured Chang'an.
Immediately afterwards, Xue Jingxian, the magistrate of Chencang County who was not originally good at martial arts, also made a splash. Taking advantage of the panic near Gyeonggi Road, he wiped out the more than a thousand rebels who had invaded Fufeng in one go, and the heads they chopped off were mounted on a whole.
Three big cars. But Sun Xiaozhe was afraid that Wang Xun would raid his home, so he didn't even dare to fart. He pinched his nose and accepted the insult.
At this time, the whole Lingwu was shaken. All the officials said that the Tang Dynasty had an endless destiny, so virtuous ministers and generals were born frequently. As for the word "repeated"? There is room for development. Mr. Xue Jingxian was originally the prince.
Of course they are one of the direct descendants. Although Wang Xun and Wang Mingyun who came back from Dawan thousands of miles away have a vague attitude, they have no old grudges with Li Heng, so they can barely be considered one. The rest, Fang Guan, Du Hongjian, Wei Shaoyou,
Cui Yi, Li Han, and Pei Mian, who could never leave the prince in times of crisis, were all regarded as wise ministers. Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi, who blocked Jingxing Pass due east and prevented Shi Siming from continuing to the west, would of course also be killed.
included.
Calculated in this way, the future of the already declining Tang Empire is a little brighter. Especially on Lingwu, there were thousands of elite border troops left behind, and now they have gathered the six leaders of the East Palace who are direct descendants of His Highness the Crown Prince.
There were more than 15,000 people, more than 5,000 people led by Sima Pei Mian who was marching to Hexi, more than 3,000 saltmen brought by Li Han, the judge of the salt pond in the pass, and more than 3,000 saltmen brought by Li Bi's brothers, plus the hastily gathered people from various places.
Zhuang, rural soldiers, there are many kinds of soldiers, there are nearly 30,000 in number, they can be regarded as strong soldiers and strong horses.
Thinking that Wang Mingyun only brought more than 10,000 exhausted troops from afar to meet Sun Xiaozhe's 15,000 army, he was able to defeat the latter and flee. The cloud of war that had been weighing on Li Heng and others,
It doesn't look so scary. With the sufficient troops in hand, even if you don't have the ability, you can give the rebels a head-on blow. At least with the danger of the mountains and rivers, holding on to this three-acre area near Lingwu will not be a big problem for the time being.
Now that safety is no longer an issue, people's ambitions grow rapidly. Prince Li Heng originally followed Yu Chaoen's advice and cut off most of his father's wings after Maweiyi launched a mutiny, but did not directly inherit the throne. There were actually two purposes.
First, let the old emperor go to Shu to deal with the remnants of the Yang family and kill people with borrowed knives. Second, let the old emperor continue to attract the attention of the rebels and buy himself more breathing time. Now because of the thoroughness of the Yang family
With the collapse and the sudden turn of the war, the two original goals have lost their meaning. It would be too hypocritical to remain secretive and refuse to take a step forward.
Li Heng has always been unwilling to do unnecessary hypocrisy. Yu Chaoen and others around him did not want him to continue to be polite. So, the monarch and his ministers discussed it and performed a good trick in Lingwu to persuade him to join.
.Although Pei Mian is not an actor, he has mastered several basic skills in singing, chanting, and fighting. He found a group of old people from Hedong and Guannai Road to jointly sign a petition. He asked Li Heng, the prince of the supervising country, to plan for the Tang Dynasty and the world.
The common people will live a long life, and they will be in high position early.
Of course, Li Heng wanted to play the role of a filial son and hid his face and refused to accept it. Pei Mian and his elders cried bitterly and refused, and Li Heng resigned again. This happened five times, and "it was no choice" before the prince Li Heng kowtowed to the southwest several times.
, Yao worshiped his father Li Longji as the Supreme Emperor, then put on his dragon robe and formally ascended the throne, changing Yuan Dynasty to De.
Now that he has officially ascended the throne, the new dynasty naturally needs some new atmosphere to decorate it. Just as the sky is auspicious, a big starry night rises from the northwest and falls in the southeast, illuminating half of the mountains and rivers as bright as day. So, the new emperor Li Heng led his ministers,
He worshiped heaven on the outskirts of Lingwu and thanked God for his mercy, which made Li Tang Guozuo's life endless. Then he made a great contribution to the meritorious officials. Based on his past merits, he made Pei Mian the Minister of Zhongshu, and he was the same as Zhongshu's sect, and Fang Guan was the Zhao.
In order to conquer Xijing and defend the two passes of Pu and Tong, Wang Sili is the military marshal. The other officials in charge of the ministries are all served by Du Hongjian, Wei Shaoyou, Cui Yi, Li Han and other ministers from the dragon. In order to be fair, the current substitutes are still
The generals and officials from various places who fought hard in the Tang Dynasty were promoted from one to several levels each. For example, Zhang Xun, Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi, etc. were either Jiedu envoys or generals, and none of them fell behind.
The top priority, of course, is Wang Xun, who has recently won a great victory and stabilized the situation in Gyeonggi Province. This person's attitude not only determines whether An Lushan's power can continue to expand westward, but also determines whether Li Heng can continue to expand.
Whether the throne can be secure. After all, the remaining power of the Supreme Emperor is still there. Once the Supreme Emperor is unwilling to lose power and summons troops from Shu to "account", Wang Mingyun stationed in Fenzhou will become the key to the situation.
.If he obeys the old emperor's order and marches north, the newly established Lingwu court will surely suffer heavy losses even if it can be repelled. And if he remembers the past grudges and refuses to obey the old emperor's orders,
The "chaos of fate" became a great barrier between the old and new emperors. If the soldiers and horses from Sichuan who came to question the emperor wanted to reach Lingwu, they first had to ask General Wang if he would borrow a passage.
Therefore, no matter what Wang Xun thinks, Li Heng must not give up any opportunity to get closer to him. Several eunuchs who accompanied His Royal Highness from Chang'an to Lingwu and suffered a lot, just because they once
Because he had something to do with Gao Lishi and Bian Lingcheng, he was inexplicably accused of being a traitor and had his head chopped off. Several censors who had impeached Feng Changqing in the court for the loss of his master were insulting the country and did not kill those who were not enough to enforce military discipline.
, was also found guilty and imprisoned, and was always ready to be thrown out to quell the anger of General Wang. As for the old members of the Anxi Army who are still scattered in various places, such as Bai Xiaode, Li Siye, Duan Xiushi and others, they were praised one after another and re-entrusted with prominent positions.
Although for a while, except for a verbal title, the court could not reward them with anything real.
The former protector of Anxi, who was granted the title of Qing Dynasty, was exonerated by the imperial court and restored to his original position. His two sons, who were demoted to white bodies and are currently missing, were also posthumously awarded the title of official title. Coincidentally, the small court of Lingwu was granted the title of official title.
Chang Qing's posthumous praise almost coincided with An Lushan's lavish burial of him, and spread in Gyeonggi Province at the same time. Those who heard it recalled that Feng Changqing led a group of newly recruited soldiers to single-handedly stop the rebels from advancing westward.
The story makes everyone shake their heads and sigh.
After sighing, he turned to Feng Changqing's direct disciple, Wang Xun and Wang Mingyun's eyes became more focused. The new imperial court was generous and directly appointed Wang Xun as the Deputy Protector of the Anxi Protectorate, and also led the Anxi Jiedu Envoy.
The Yingtian envoy almost completely inherited Feng Changqing's position and power. Of course, whether this imperial edict can be implemented depends on Wang Xun's future development. Anyway, the news from Shule has been cut off. Wang
It is still unknown whether Xun will be able to recapture much of Anxi from the local tribes in the future.
Li Heng also knew that he might not be able to impress Wang Xun if he relied entirely on imaginary things. Therefore, by motivating officials from various places to form regiments to defend his hometown, he gave Wang Xun the power to dispatch personnel, money, food, and troops in the six states currently controlled.
, they were all sealed to him conveniently. Anyway, even if they were not sealed, no one could make Wang Xun spit out these things that had already reached Wang Xun's mouth for the time being, so it was better to be a favor.
After a series of gestures of goodwill, Li Heng was moved by his generosity. However, it had been more than half a month since the imperial mission was sent to Ma Fang, but no news had been sent back. It was Wang Qing who refused to comply with God's will and the people's will.
Accept my reward? Or has he already had a connection with the Supreme Emperor and is ready to seek justice for the Supreme Emperor? What if he suddenly turns his back and uses the Supreme Emperor's will to fight against me? Who will I send to resist him?
What about Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi? Then Shi Siming takes advantage of the situation and attacks Hedong again. What should I do?
After thinking about it, the more Li Heng thought about it, the less sure he felt. He wanted to send another imperial envoy to increase the previous reward, but he was afraid of being criticized by the ministers for his lack of determination. He had no choice but to continue hiding in the palace, hugging Li Heng.
He braced his arms to bear the bone-chilling autumn wind, while complaining to the old eunuch Yu Chaoen.
"Sneeze, sneeze! It's only August in this damn place, how come it's so cold? If I had known this, I would never have come to Lingwu, even if I continued westward to Longxi and Huizhou.
It’s much better than suffering here!”
"I'm afraid your Majesty is feeling cold! Why do you think this autumn wind is so refreshing?!" Yu Chaoen single-handedly promoted Li Heng to the position of emperor, so he is naturally qualified to rely on his old age. "Don't be anxious, be patient in everything."
You must be patient. Your Majesty tolerated Li Linfu and Yang Guozhong for decades, didn't life pass smoothly? Then, no matter how domineering and unreasonable Wang Mingyun is, can he be better than Li Linfu?! It's not a matter of time.
I'm just showing off my figure, hoping to get more attention from Your Majesty. Ignore him, at this moment, without Your Majesty, who else can he be loyal to?!"
