In late April, the Mao people were in chaos, good news came, and the emperor's laughter once again filled the palace.
"People often laugh at the hands of the eldest son of the royal family and the women in the palace. They have long since lost the ability of our ancestors to conquer the world at once. Look at us Wei Lang, who will dare to say such a thing in the future." He laughed.
"Yes, yes, people say that the king of Jin'an County has the courage of the hussar generals in his time, and dared to lead his troops into the depths of the enemy." The chamberlain laughed.
The imperial concubine on the side sneered in her heart, calling the general a hussar, and a group of copycat thieves had the nerve to compare them to the tough western thieves.
The emperor's laughter sounded again.
"It's incomparable." He shook his head and said.
But the imperial concubine did not see that his expression was incomparable.
"The Ai family doesn't care what other people say, and they don't care whether they are brave or not." The queen mother on the side wiped away tears and said, "I don't even think about how dangerous it is. Didn't I just say that I was just going to be a town? Why did you bring people forward in person?
?”
Although the letter written by the Prince of Jin'an County was understated, Maoping's every move would naturally not be hidden from the emperor's eyes. Information from all parties was gathered, and everything in the quelling the chaos and disaster relief was very clear.
Shitang Village is the last and largest force among the rebellious people. Prince Jin'an entered the village alone and finally defused it and persuaded Shitang Village to recruit troops. It sounds dangerous, but in fact it is even more dangerous.
At that time, not only the King of Jin'an County came to Shitang Village, but also lobbyists sent by other defeated rebels. The two owners of Shitang Village were hesitant, and the lobbyists of another group of rebels simply sneaked over to ask for help.
Killing the King of Jin'an County will force Shitang Village to have no choice but to continue the rebellion.
Their plan was good and they almost succeeded, but in the end the leader of Jin'an County was killed, and the people of Shitang Village were alerted. The two village owners finally decided to submit to the court, and worked together to surround and kill these thieves, and opened the village
The gate welcomes the officers and soldiers going up the mountain.
"...I lit fireworks and shot the thief to death. Listen, this is nothing but child's play!" said the Queen Mother.
Yes, the emperor looked a little strange after hearing this.
Four attendants were killed, and the thieves were determined to win and there was no turning back. King Jin'an actually killed the leader of the thieves during the siege. When asked what he used to kill him, the answer was fireworks.
Fireworks at Li's Shop.
"When I left the capital, I brought fireworks with me. They were originally intended to be used to transmit signals at night. When Li Mao saw Mrs. Cheng's fireworks flying so high, he thought about what would happen if they were shot horizontally, which led to the development of stone bombs in the future.
, the fireworks in Li's shop also flew higher and higher because of the improved gunpowder. The matter was urgent at that time, and I had no weapons in my hands, so I threw the fireworks out out of desperation, and they hit without thinking."
At this time, after the officers and soldiers rushed to the stronghold, what the King of Jin'an said.
It's really unbelievable to hear, but the three people who died at the scene did have facial burns, apparently from gunpowder explosions.
Those people quickly killed the guards, leaving only an unarmed prince. I thought they were sure to succeed, but I didn't expect to be suddenly attacked by fireworks. The sound was loud and terrifying. I had something in my heart, and I panicked for a moment.
Using their hands and feet, Jin'an County Prince had the opportunity to escape, but when the incident was revealed, the leader of Shitang Village forced the leader of Shitang Village to kill them instead.
What a...lucky boy.
The emperor shook his head and sighed with a smile.
But this kind of luck must be based on courage.
"I heard that the King of Jin'an County was protected by divine light at that time, as if he were a deity descending to earth, causing the entire village to kneel down and worship him. Therefore, the leader of Shitang Village believed that his destiny was his destiny and did not dare to violate it, so he made up his mind and did not hesitate any longer.
Return to the imperial court." The imperial concubine smiled.
To say that a county king is destiny makes people feel trembling in their hearts.
The emperor seemed unaware and nodded.
"In that situation, it was pitch dark, suddenly burst into flames, and the thief fell to the ground. It really shocked people." He smiled slightly and said, "Besides, he is my ambassador and acts on my behalf.
Where destiny lies."
………………………………
"I'm so angry!"
With a shout, the imperial concubine overturned several cases in front of her. Still confused, she raised her foot and kicked them away fiercely.
"Which one falls to the ground is the real son! He is praised and defended everywhere, but the one who criticizes and criticizes three times a day will not be relieved!"
"Destiny! Destiny is where destiny is! Let's see who can still laugh when someone else takes it's place!"
The waiters hurriedly guarded each other, fearing that the dishes scattered on the floor would hurt her feet.
"My Majesty, this is natural for your Majesty. Your Majesty has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He regards the Prince as himself, so he is happy. He is not really admiring the Prince." The chamberlain said, "My Majesty, don't think too much about it."
"I don't think too much, I'm just angry!" the imperial concubine shouted angrily, tearing down the curtain fiercely, "Trash, trash, everyone is dead. With such a good opportunity, not only did he not kill him, but he was
Several fireworks blew up!"
"What kind of trash are you looking for? Is it a juggler?"
The waiter hurriedly waved his hands and turned pale.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, don't say it, don't say it." He whispered repeatedly.
The imperial concubine once again pulled down the curtain, turned around and kicked the tables away, but her toes hurt, and she couldn't help but squeal and sit down.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty is not well."
The palace maid outside the door shouted in panic and came in. When she saw the appearance of the imperial concubine in the room, she immediately stopped in fear.
"Is there anything else that's bad? Tell me, tell them all together, so that they don't pop up one by one every day and disgust me." The imperial concubine raised her eyebrows and said.
The palace maid hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and knelt beside the imperial concubine.
"Empress, do you still remember that there were rumors that Concubine An dreamed of Taibai falling into her arms?" she said in a low voice.
The imperial concubine sneered.
"What? What's wrong with you again?" she said.
"Your Majesty, this rumor is not false." The palace maid said in a low voice.
The imperial concubine turned to look at her with raised eyebrows and sighed.
"Empress, I can't say whether Concubine An dreamed or not, but Taibai really appeared." The palace maid whispered urgently, "Just before the lunar eclipse, Taibai was in the sky."
Taibai Jingtian!
The imperial concubine sat upright suddenly.
"What did you say?" she asked, her expression suddenly changing.
Lunar eclipse, meeting Taibai, the prince is in danger.
…………………………………………….
The story of Maoping's quelling the chaos naturally spread when the good news came to Beijing.
However, compared to the victory against the fierce Western bandits, the suppression of this kind of civil unrest would not cause much of a sensation according to common sense, but this time it was different from the past.
Mainly because there is a wonderful story in it, that is, the story of the Jin'an County Prince who was recruited by the emperor and went to Shitang Village alone.
"...Only four people were brought..."
"No, I heard that it was only the Prince of Jin'an County who went into the mountains and strongholds like that..."
It's noisy here, and the drums are beating there.
"...There was a flash of golden light at that time. It turned out that the Supreme Lord showed his spirit. He spoke urgently like a law and waved the divine light sword in his hand. The thief suddenly fell to the ground. The King of Jin'an County came out to help, waved his sleeves and shouted, "You guys, wait."
Thief, if you haven't surrendered yet, when will you wait?"
With the sound of the book board snapping, the storyteller lifted up his clothes and stood up, and the whole hall suddenly cheered loudly.
In the private seats facing the hall on the second floor, young people couldn't help but laugh while taking pictures.
"Liu Lang, what's so funny?" Qin Hu said with a frown.
"That's funny." Zhou Hui laughed, grabbing a handful of dried fruits on the table and throwing them into his mouth, leaning against the railing and continuing to listen.
"... To say that this Jin'an Prince is an extraordinary person. When Princess Xiu dreamed of the Bodhisattva smiling and pushing a golden melon into her arms, she woke up pregnant and gave birth to the Jin'an Prince. Because she was a boy in front of the Bodhisattva's throne, she could attract children and make money.
…..”
Hearing this, Zhou Hui grinned and was about to laugh again. Qin Hu stood up and threw a handful of big money on several cases.
"Let's go, let's go. You are talking nonsense like this. I don't know how much hatred you have against the Prince of Jin'an County." He frowned and said.
Zhou Hao followed with a smile.
"It's quite fun," he said. "Speaking of which, Your Highness the County Prince is really blessed. Fireworks can also scare away enemies. It's probably unprecedented and unprecedented."
"Fireworks scare off the enemy, do you believe it?" Qin Hu said.
Zhou Sheng glanced at him.
"So many people have seen it with their own eyes, so what are you thinking about?" He laughed.
"What you see with your own eyes is not necessarily the truth." Qin Hu said, "What you believe is eyes, but eyes can't believe it."
"It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the matter is over anyway," Zhou Hui said.
Qin Hu said nothing and looked back at the tea shop.
There were many people around the tea shop, and the storyteller was foaming at the mouth more and more.
"His Royal Highness the County Prince is blessing you, what will the Prince do?" he said coldly.
Zhou Hao reached out and patted his shoulder.
"His Royal Highness the County Prince is blessed by God. In the future, the alms table in the side hall of the Imperial Ancestral Temple may be placed on the top floor." He said, "And even if the Prince is not blessed, he will be the last in the main hall. Thirteen, the County Prince, Prince,
Just one word difference is already a blessing from God."
"Since you know God's will, you should stick to your duty." Qin Hu said, "The current prince has lost his duty."
"Where did you lose your duty? Your Majesty originally wanted to order all the officials to come out to welcome them back, and also wanted Prince Ping to propose a toast to the emperor. But the officers and soldiers refused because of the recruitment. What a duty." Zhou Feng said with a smile, with a bit of pride on his face.
, "Assuming they know their duty."
As he spoke, he moved closer to Qin Hu and lowered his voice.
"Suppressing the chaos is just a riot with a group of people and some bandits. If this is considered a great achievement and worthy of being welcomed by the emperor, then how can we calculate the credit of our Northwest Army?"
Qin Hu chuckled and pushed him away with his arm.
"What are you proud of? You have gained the credit you deserve for this move, you have gained a reputation, and yet you have remained humble in front of the emperor, and you know how to advance and retreat. This is wisdom." He said with a smile.
Zhou Feng scoffed.
"Are you tired? You think so much every day. Your intelligence is useless. Why not quickly think about what to do about her?" He said angrily.
Her thing...
Qin Hu smiled and stepped forward without saying anything.
She is what I miss most, but she never uses my thoughts.
