Chapter 87: Zhao Guoshi's surname changed in Yecheng;
At this time, among the Shi clan, the emerging king Shi Zhi still occupied Xiang State. Those who escaped by chance in Yecheng and the remaining Jie people in Zhao State all went to Xiang State.
Now that Shi Min has sole power, people at that time pretended to prophesy: "Succeeding Zhao Li", changed the country's name to "Wei", changed the surname to Li, received amnesty, and changed it to Yuan Qinglong.
The ministers came forward and Xu Shimin added "Nine Tins" and was granted the title of King of Wei, so the Shi clan no longer exists.
Soon, on the high platform in the southern suburbs, hundreds of civil and military officials stood below the platform. Shi Jian, who had changed his surname to Li Jian, was helplessly sitting on the throne.
At this time, the horns sounded and the drums beat loudly, so Ran Min, the general of the State of Zhao, came over.
I saw Ran Min slowly stepping onto the high platform. Li Jian was carefully helped up by Yang Huan. Ran Min walked to Li Jian. Li Jian carefully took the jade seal from the attendant beside him and handed it to Ran Min to hold the jade seal and move forward.
Taking one step forward, he stood facing south and handed the jade seal to the person next to him. Shi Jian stepped back a step and bowed to Ran Min facing north.
This is another old chamberlain who opened the Zen edict and read out: In the past, Yao matched the virtues of heaven...Destiny is impermanent, only virtue...The imperial system suffered losses, and powerful enemies fought against each other, all because of the merits of King Wude...
…Now I make Min the King of Wei.”
Li Jian only bowed and said: "I pay my respects to Your Majesty."
After the ceremony was completed, the begging soldiers under the Zen platform shouted: "Long live, long live"
Then Ran Min issued an order: amnesty and change to Yuan Qinglong.
Under the high platform, Shi Yun was also invited to watch the ceremony. Li Tekang had fully recovered by this time, and Shi Yun allowed him to serve beside her like a bodyguard.
Li Tekang only stared at Shi Min on the high platform, holding the scimitar left by his father tightly in his hand, and the anger in his heart could not be stopped. Seeing him here, Shi Yun gently touched his hand holding the scimitar,
Wanting to resolve it, he said: "Now that the Hu and Han killings have passed, you must not do anything reckless again."
Li Tekang looked directly at the princess, and the princess's concerned eyes dispelled most of the hatred in his heart. "But I heard what the princess said, but this kind of grudge can't be resolved with just a few words." Li Tekang let go of his waist.
The scimitar worn during the period.
At this time, King Wei, Li Nong, Li Jian, Yang Huan and others walked down the high platform and came to Shi Yun's side. Li Jian stepped back and only saluted King Wei together with Princess Shi Yun.
At this time, Li Jian said tremblingly: "I thank the King of Wei for not killing him. I, the Li family, will serve the country wholeheartedly."
Li Xi was surprised and said: "Uncle, my Shi family has all changed their surname to Li family??"
Li Jian smiled bitterly and said: "The words of prophecy, after Zhao Li, changed the surname to Baohe clan Wuyou."
Shi Yun only asked: "Shi Min, you have been greatly favored by the Shi family in this life, and it is enough to add the title of King of Wei. Changing your surname is a false name."
The sergeant next to him wanted to go up to warn Shi Yun, but the King of Wei stopped him. He said slowly to Shi Yun: "Yes, your Shi family has sinned very seriously. If you want to take the prophecy, I will save the lives of your Li family to appease everyone."
.”
Shi Yun only asked him: "Shi Min, if your surname is not Shi, how could you do such a thing and forget your ancestors?"
Ran Min just smiled at him and remained silent. The sergeant next to him couldn't help but said: "Now that the King of Wei has ascended to the throne, he has long disdained dancing with the Shi family of the Jie clan. Now his surname has been restored to Han people and he has returned to Ran."
surname."
Seeing this, Li Nong hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Princess, please stop talking. The only way to preserve the integrity of your Shi family at this time is that the Shi family has sinned deeply. If you go to the world in the name of the Shi family, everyone may not accept it." Li Nong looked at it.
He glanced at the King of Wei, who only nodded slightly, and Li Nong said understandingly, "There are still remnants of the Shi clan in Xiang State, and the King of Wei wants to send troops to encircle and suppress them. If there is a Shi clan in Ye City again, they will be wiped out by the soldiers of the Wei Dynasty.
This is the only way to preserve your family line. Now the name of the princess has been deleted from the genealogy. The princess has no connection with the old Shi family anymore, and the name of Princess Shi Yun will never be included in the Qingshi documents."
"No more connection, no more connection..." Shi Yun clenched his fists and wanted to rush over. He just wanted to slap King Wei, but the guards around King Wei suddenly jumped up and wanted to stab Shi with a long knife.
Yun, at this time, Li Tekang next to him knocked down the guard's long sword with a lunge.
"Hurry, hurry, there are assassins!" shouted the attendant beside King Wei.
"Back off!" Ran Min just shouted, "A weak woman has no weapons, why should she be nervous?"
Ran Min looked at Li Tekang and said in a deep voice: "I have never seen you before. Don't hurt yourself by carrying this sharp blade at such a young age."
The attendant only glanced to the left and right, intending to capture the boy. At this time, Shi Yun hurriedly knelt forward and said: "King Wei, please stop killing and leave the boy to me?"
Ran Min only said sternly: "Why should I listen to you?"
Shi Yun begged: "This man's parents and family were all killed by your soldiers, please keep him."
Ran Min said nothing. She saw the old Emperor Li Jian of Zhao looking at her with shame. She understood in her heart and said, "I promised you what I said before. I just ask the King of Wei to let the child go."
Ran Min just sighed and said: "He and you are not related to each other, but you, you did it for him."
Shi Yun only said: "Your Majesty, you can fulfill your wish and save my Li family. It is my wish that your killing karma be reduced even more."
Shi Yun looked at the ashamed Li Jian next to him and bowed solemnly: "I have relied on heroes since I was a child, and now the power of the king is outstanding all over the world. It is my blessing that I can serve the king. I hope the king can do it."
Shi Yun closed his eyes and said solemnly: "If I can exchange for Li's peace, I am willing."
Ran Min just wanted to reach out and caress her face but stopped, and then said to his entourage: "Escort the Li family back to the palace, and we will go back to the house."
After the ceremony of enthroning the king, Ran Min controlled the military and political power of the former Zhao State, almost like Wang Mang and Cao Cao. Although he did not say anything about ascending the throne, he was only one step away from becoming the king of the Nine Five-Year Plan.
The ministers who were once relied upon by the Shi family and those who had problems with Shi Min fled one after another, such as Zhao Shu, the prime minister, Zhang Ju, the lieutenant, Zhang Chun, the general of the Chinese army, Shi Yue, the Guanglu doctor, etc., as well as the princes who stayed behind in Yecheng.
More than 10,000 people from the Hou, Qing, Xiao, and Ye palaces, including the remaining Longteng guards in the palace, all fled to Xiangguo.
The four territories and all sides divided their territories to protect themselves. King Shikun of Ruyin rushed to Jizhou, General Zhang Chen of the Fu Army occupied Fukou, Zhang Hedu occupied Shidu, General Jianyi Duan Gong occupied Guanggu, Duan Qin occupied Jiangmu, and Liu Guo occupied Yangcheng.
Yao Yizhong occupied Shetou and Pu Hong occupied Fangtou. They each led tens of thousands of troops, but none of them attached themselves to Shi Min. Although they were like Ma Qiu, they followed Shi Min's orders and killed the barbarians in the army, but there were few of them.
He was weak and was soon intercepted by Pu Hong. After all, there were only a few generals in the Zhao Kingdom who obeyed Shi Min. In troubled times, when they saw such an opportunity, they all wanted to take advantage of it and seek independence. In addition, the Murong family in the north had already entered Youzhou.
At this time, Shi's Zhao Kingdom fell apart and was on the verge of death.
Inside Ye City, Shi Min's begging army was still able to maintain the situation. However, outside Ye City, the official system had collapsed, thieves and strongmen rose up, and the people fled in all directions. Now that Ye Palace is in ruins, the center of the imperial court has actually been transferred to Shi Min's General's Mansion.
On, change to row on.
That day in the Palace of the Prince of Wei, Shi Min, now Ran Min, was discussing matters with Li Nong, when a scout came to report on Pegasus.
Seeing that he had no time to dress up, he went into the mansion and reported: "General, Sikong, Ruyin King Shikun and Zhang Ju, Wang Lang led an army of 70,000 to attack Yecheng. The banners cover the sun, and the bandit force is very heavy."
"It came so quickly." King Wei put down the scroll in his hand and said to Li Nong, "There are some old friends of yours in this."
"Fortunately, I was saved because of Captain Zhang Ju. However, since the Hu and Han are not at odds with each other, I regret that they cannot be used by me." Li Nong said helplessly.
Ran Min comforted him and said: "Li Sikong, we are in troubled times now and cannot be kind to women. We don't need to mention this matter anymore. We should quickly discuss a strategy to retreat from the enemy for the present."
Li Nong thought for a while and hurriedly asked Dong Run, who joined the army in the mansion: "How many troops are stationed in our city of Ye now?"
"Reporting to the general, in addition to the palaces and city gates left behind, there are still three thousand cavalry in the city, and there are also troops left behind from the four borders arriving one after another."
The King of Wei thought for a moment and asked the scout, "How far away is the enemy from me?"
"I am reporting to the general that the enemy's vanguard has arrived at Dangyin. I am afraid that the enemy's army will approach Ye City within a day, and Ye City will be in danger by then."
Seeing this, Li Nong also advised: "The thieves are very powerful. It is better to avoid the sharp edge. I should keep the city away for the sake of future effects."
When the king of Wei heard this, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly burst into laughter. Li Nong and everyone in the palace were at a loss.
After the laughter, the King of Wei said to everyone: "In this rabble, Zhang Ju's advance is so fast, I think there are quite a few people who were trapped among them. Now that we, the Han people, have just taken Yecheng, we are about to retreat. Wouldn't it make the world laugh at us?"
.”
Hearing this, the officers and men in the mansion couldn't help but feel proud and nodded one after another. Li Nong was still uneasy and advised: "Now that the enemy's situation is unclear, the general and tens of thousands of people are tied to it, so we should not be in danger again."
Ran Min only smiled and said: "Thank you Li Sikong for your kindness. The defenders in my city are all elites from hundreds of battles. The barbarians have bullied me for a long time. I should avenge my shame. Li Nong, just sit back in the city and listen to the report of our army's victory."
"Immediately, Shi Min stretched out his long arm and said, "Bring me my double-edged spear."
The King of Wei just stood still and said to the soldiers under the tent in the hall: "Now that the Han people have captured Ye City, the Jie people are about to die. All the soldiers will follow me and attack with all their strength to kill the remaining members of the Jie people."
"Hoo ho". Everyone was infected by Shi Min's pride and their fighting spirit was high.
Li Nong suddenly said at this time: "The King of Wei is brave, but he must cherish his life. In a few days, he will be getting married to the princess, so be careful."
The king of Wei only smiled and said: "If you proclaim yourself king, you will attract people from all over the world. If you care about your own life, how can you establish your power and frighten Xiaoxiao?" Then he ordered everyone, "Now the army of beggars has taken control of Ye City, but the surrounding areas
Before the peace is reached, although I have been crowned the king, I still rely on the efforts of all the princes. I will work hard alone, and everyone will follow me."
All the soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes!"
In Jiankang City
News of Zhao's unprecedented turmoil has spread throughout the country.
After the defeat of Chu Su, the Jin Dynasty once again began to think about the Northern Expedition.
On this day, Sima Yu, the king of Kuaiji, came to the court and said: "Your Majesty, I heard that there are frequent chaos in Zhao. Now Shi Min has killed all the barbarians in his territory. The morale of the Zhao army is unstable, and the people are fleeing. At this time
My Jin army will take the lead in the Northern Expedition, conquer the two capitals, and restore the great cause of China and North Korea."
Chu Suanzi asked: "What do you think?"
Yin Hao hurriedly said: "What the King of Kuaiji said is what I wish for. A few days ago, because of Chu Cui's defeat, Huan Wen had many intentions of reprimanding him. He wanted to lead his troops in the Northern Expedition, but the court did not allow it. Instead, he led his troops down the river to threaten his health. Now I
What did he say about Jin's Northern Expedition?"
Wang Xizhi, the general of the right army, saw this and stepped forward to advise: "Soldiers are the land of life and death, and the road to survival. Don't start the war lightly. The power of Zhao is declining. However, in the land of Sanwu, we have not practiced battle formations for a long time. In addition, Chu Peixin
If we fail, we may be in danger."
"The general of the right army is making a mistake." Yin Hao protested, "The Yue sword and the Wu hook are the sharpest swords in the world. The three sons of Wu dominate the world. In the past, the king of Wu led his army to Huangchi to join the alliance with the princes, and the world looked at him. The king of Yue, Gou Jian, led a partial army to attack Qi in the north.
, pacified Chu State in the west, moved the capital to Langya, shocked the princes, and became the last generation of overlords in the Spring and Autumn Period. Today, the Central Plains is in turmoil, and we, the three sons of Wu, are working bravely, how can we not pacify the Central Plains and restore the old affairs of China and Korea?"
Wang Xizhi cupped his hands and said: "Now that Wang Gang is weak, there are also hidden worries, and many people are afraid of war. It is very difficult to pacify the four seas and nine states in the Wuyue area. I am not timid to fight, but I have repeatedly considered the safety of the imperial court."
After hearing this, the King of Kuaiji ordered someone to pass Huan Wen's letter to him, and then said: "Wang Youjun, the safety of the imperial court is at stake. Yin Hao's move to assassinate the Northern Expedition is actually to relieve the imperial court's difficulties and eliminate Youyou's mouth.
Let alone Luo Huan Wen’s words.”
Wang Xizhi couldn't help but frown after reading the letter. After reading it, he handed Huan Wen's letter to his attendants and said to His Majesty: "Although Huan Wen's words are exaggerated, they also have the intention of establishing his power through the Northern Expedition. However, his words are still to the point. I invite your Majesty."
, King Langya, all ministers accept it."
"Master Wang, Huan Wen can make the Han Dynasty with Jingzhou's partial army, and my three Wu brothers are all brave enough to make it happen. Now that Zhao and Hu and Han are attacking each other, how can such a great opportunity be handed over to others? If you don't take it now, you will surely suffer it."
Guilt." Yin Hao was very contemptuous of Wang Xizhi.
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother." Wang Xizhi said in a hurry, "Soldiers are a bad thing. I am afraid that if we rush to raise troops today, I may suffer a great disaster tomorrow."
"Your Majesty, Queen Mother, Huan Wen's wolfish ambition has just begun to show. If he becomes famous for the Northern Expedition today, no one may be able to stop him. Now is a rare opportunity. I recommend Yin Hao to lead the Northern Expedition to conquer the two capitals and regain the Central Plains." King Kuaiji added.
"Your Majesty..." Wang Xizhi was just about to say something, but all the ministers in the court said, "I also agree with the words of the King of Kuaiji."
"I also recommend Yin Hao as the commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition."
He only heard that it was Xie Shang and Xie Renzu. He said to Wang Xizhi: "If it weren't for the support of the general Wang Dao, the ancestor of the Jin Dynasty, how could the Jin Dynasty be settled? Now that the family and your majesty are all in peace, how can the government and the public be shaken because of Huan Wen?
It has disgraced the lintel of the Langya Wang family."
Wang Xizhi remained silent for a long time. Behind the curtain, Chu Suanzi watched everything. Knowing that the Northern Expedition was inevitable, he immediately took out the edict he had already prepared and handed it to his attendants to read.
"The imperial edict ordered Yin Hao, the governor of Yangzhou, to confer the title of General of the Chinese Army. During the holiday, the governor-general of Yu, Xu, Yanqing, and the five states were ordered to restore the Central Plains and enshrine the ancestral temple in the old capital."
After the edict was completed, Empress Dowager Chu said from behind the curtain: "It's all down to General Yin, and the kingdom of the Jin Dynasty will be entrusted to you."
Yin Hao knelt down and worshiped: "I am determined to live up to the Queen Mother. Your Majesty has placed great trust in me, and I will definitely conquer the State of Zhao and revive the Jin Dynasty."
Wang Xizhi sighed deeply when he saw this, "Military affairs and state affairs cannot be left to chance. The State of Zhao is worried, and so is the State of Jin."
