(Today Nantong City will hold the founding meeting of the Internet Writers Association, there is only one chapter)
In the Daliang Palace, it seemed eerie and deserted just after noon. The Emperor passed away and many ministers in the court also took sick leave. During the morning court, the hall seemed even more sparse than during the days after he ascended the throne.
On the basis of Xuanjiadu, the left and right Xuanjia troops were expanded to serve as the bodyguards of the new emperor.
After the early dynasty, Chen Kun, the commander of the Xuanjia Army on the left, Jing Zhen, the commander of the Chengtian Division, Jing Zhen's brother, Jing Hao, the commander of the Xuanjia Army on the right, Lei Jiuyuan, the minister of the Internal Affairs Department, and others were left behind by the new emperor. Sitting solemnly in the main hall, Shen Peng, the captain of the Chengtian Division, knelt on one knee in front of the imperial court and reported the latest developments in Chu State:
"Shouzhou divided 30,000 troops and stationed them in Chaozhou and Chuzhou, but Xu Mingzhen himself remained in Shouzhou City. King Chu Xin Yang Yuanyan supervised the army and entered Guangling. He continued to recruit troops in Guangling, and then crossed the river to Runzhou on a selected day to meet with Xinchang Hou Lipu joined forces. On the western front, Yang Yuanpu of Chutan Prefecture arrived at Yueyang with 30,000 soldiers and horses, and then stood still. Du Chongtao returned to Xiangcheng from Fangcheng, while Zhang Pei led his troops to guard Jingzhou. For the time being, there was no movement and no troops were sent to Jinling. , but at the same time, they also refused to send envoys from Chutan King Yang Yuanpu to enter. As for the movements of the Chu army in Hongzhou, Yuezhou and other places in Chu State, no news has been reported yet... There is also news from Tanma returning from Shu Kingdom, and its Qingyang County The Lord left a letter to Wang Jian, Lord of Shu, saying goodbye to Chu envoy Han Qian on the eleventh day of the first month without saying goodbye. At this time, his whereabouts are unknown..."
"Han Qian kidnapped Princess Qingyang and may have gone to Yueyang to join Yang Yuanpu." Chen Kun frowned and said.
At this time, both Liang and Chu had undergone earth-shattering changes. It seemed that they had taken control of Bianjing first, but when it came to the situation, they were no more optimistic than Chu. After all, in addition to internal worries, Liang was also facing decades of entanglement in the north. The Jin army threatened.
If Han Qian is asked to assist Chu Tan King Yang Yuanpu to stabilize the situation in Chu State first, the situation will be even more dangerous for them.
Although the secret spies lurking in the Shu Kingdom returned information that Princess Qingyang left a letter to Shu Lord Wang Jian and voluntarily fled to Chu with Han Qian to marry Chu Tan King Yang Yuanpu, Chen Kun, who was familiar with Han Qian's plan, It was determined that Princess Qingyang was actually kidnapped by Han Qian - of course, if Princess Qingyang really voluntarily followed Han Qian back to Chu, the situation would be even more unfavorable for them.
All these things mean that Han Qian in Shu should have known about the drastic changes in Jinling earlier than the Shu army's intelligence system. Did Han Qian resolutely abscond back to Chu because he did not want to be detained by Shu lord Wang Jian?
Xiangcheng Hou Jingzhen and his younger brother Jing Hao led eight hundred elite guards and secret soldiers of Chengtian Division to control the Xianjin Bridge. This was the key to Xuanjiadu's elite cavalry entering Bianjing City with lightning speed, and succeeded in usurping the throne by forcing the palace. Afterwards, they were naturally the trusted generals that the new emperor relied on.
However, the two brothers had always stayed in Bianjing and had no chance to participate in the Jingxiang War with Zhu Yu. They did not feel the pain of Han Yuanqi's setback in Xichuan.
Therefore, in their hearts, they felt that His Majesty, Chen Kun, Lei Jiuyuan and others paid too much attention to Han Qian.
Zhu Yu sat behind the imperial court, his face gloomy but silent. Others didn't know what he was thinking, nor did they know that so many ministers asked for leave this morning, which made him unhappy, but in any case, the Emperor's " "Died" created an unbridgeable gap between the kings and ministers of Liang Dynasty.
"Wang Jian, the Lord of Shu, could have waited and watched the situation, or even gone a step further. Even if he did not take the opportunity to capture Jingzhou, he would have sent people to encourage Zhang Wei and Du Chongtao to separate Jingxiang. If Princess Qingyang officially married Yang Yuanpu, King of Tan, her attitude might be different.
Maybe there will be some subtle changes?" Lei Jiuyuan said in a hoarse voice.
Even if the personal emotions of the Lord of Shu, Wang Jian, are not considered, the decision of Princess Qingyang will actually affect the choices of many people within the Kingdom of Shu.
In particular, Wang Yong, the Marquis of Changxiang, who had just been appointed as the governor of Yuzhou, should have been counting on the marriage between his sister Princess Qingyang and the Chu State to strengthen his power.
These will lead to subtle changes in the attitude towards Chu Tan King Yang Yuanpu within the Shu Kingdom.
The Chu State's attitude towards Yang Yuanpu, King of Chutan, would also affect the choices of Zhang Wei and Du Chongtao who occupied Jingxiang.
So from this point of view, it can be said that Han Qian kidnapped Princess Qingyang when he fled back to Chu, which was both bold and brilliant.
Although Lei Jiuyuan has not left Bianjing in the past few years, the Hidden Tiger lurking next to Han Daoxun will have a copy delivered to him every time there is information. Han Daoxun, Han Qian and his son have done a lot of things over the years.
Lei Jiuyuan was much clearer about the matter than Jing Zhen, and he also realized more clearly how big of a threat Han Qian posed.
In comparison, it has only been 20 days since Jing Zhen took charge of Chengtian Division, and during these 20 days, Jing Zhen's main focus has been on monitoring the disturbances in Bianjing City, and he has not had time to study the knowledge accumulated in the past.
A lot of information.
"The King of Chutan, Yang Yuanpu, is not reliable. Shen Yang has political achievements, but is not good at planning. After Han Qian arrived in Yueyang, it was indeed a thorny problem. Once he took advantage of the marriage between Princess Qingyang and Yang Yuanpu, he forced the Lord of Shu to marry Yang Yuanpu.
If we form an alliance, the situation will be extremely unfavorable to us." Chen Kun always insisted that Princess Qingyang's departure from Shu was a conspiracy planned by Han Qian, and he was still worried.
One move affects the overall situation. They weigh Han Qian's whereabouts, which actually determines their strategic choice in the southern border of Daliang.
They only had 40,000 soldiers and horses in Bianjing at this time. If they wanted to scare the nearby prefectures and counties from making any changes, they could not mobilize many soldiers and horses to conquer Zhu Gui, the king of Bo.
Although Han Yuanqi had 60,000 troops in Caizhou, after Han Jian's death, although many of Han Jian's old troops expressed their intention to follow the new emperor with Han Yuanqi, the morale of the army could not be shaken, and there was no guarantee that a general would secretly communicate with King Bo.
It is difficult to conduct a thorough combing in a short time.
Under this situation, even if the other four Jiedu envoys and the Jin army in the north have not made any movements for the time being, it will be quite difficult and dangerous for them to quickly and easily deal with the 80,000 rebels led by King Bo and Feng Ting'e.
.
And if Han Qian and Chu Tan King Yang Yuanpu learned about the drastic changes in Daliang after joining together, how could they easily give them a chance to deal with the Chenzhou rebels?
And once Bo Wang Zhu Gui established his foothold in Chenzhou and connected with Xu Ying and other places, the problem in Daliang would become serious.
"Has the stinging tiger lurking around Han Daoxun been exposed? If Han Qian is really important, he can wait for an opportunity to assassinate him and get rid of his troubles." Jing Zhen suggested.
"The Hidden Tiger lost contact after he left Jinling. Even if he sent someone to contact him, he might not obey his orders." Shen Peng said worriedly.
Xiangcheng Hou Jingzhen only became the captain of Chengtiansi and took charge of the affairs of Chengtiansi after Zhu Yu ascended the throne. He was not particularly familiar with the secrets and lurking spies of Chengtiansi, but he also knew in his heart that as long as it was
People will have seven emotions and six desires, and some have conspired to lurk in the enemy's territory for too long. No matter how determined they are, they can easily get lost. It is impossible for them to completely obey Chengtiansi's orders like puppets. They even have to worry that these stinging tigers may
Rebellion, backlash, many things are far from being as simple as imagined.
"Perhaps Han Qian will not be in a hurry to go to Yueyang." Zhu Yu then raised his head and said.
"Your Majesty, Han Qian fled Shu in a hurry and robbed Princess Qingyang to Chu. If he didn't go to Yueyang to join Yang Yuanpu, where would he go?" Chen Kun asked in confusion.
"Han Daoxun died tragically under execution, and Yang Yuanpu's mother Wang Chan'er, Li Pu and others all contributed to it. The more they feared Han Qian, the deeper the cracks within the Tanzhou line would be. It is impossible for Yang Yuanpu and everyone in Tanzhou not to consider this, Han
It is impossible for Qian not to be concerned about this. Li Pu may not be able to escape while commanding the troops in Runzhou, but they should find a way to escort Wang Chan'er to Yueyang to meet Yang Yuanpu. By then, even if Han Qian is in Yueyang, Yang Yuanpu will have a hard time
Follow his advice. In addition to Han Qian, Li Yu, who has been idle in Hongzhou for many years, is also a figure we cannot ignore." Zhu Yu said coldly.
Lei Jiuyuan and Chen Kun both nodded in agreement.
Li Yu, the king of Chu Zhejiang Province, was the only general with a different surname under Yang Mi who was crowned king. Yang Mi rose up in Huainan, annexed Guangling, captured Shengzhou (Jinling), Runzhou, and defeated the Yue King Dong Chang. In other battles, Li Yu and his men
His contribution was indispensable, and it was also because his achievements were so obvious that after he was granted the title of King of East Zhejiang Province, Yang Mi deprived him of his military power and made him the Minister of the Ministry of War. He was soon promoted to an official position and returned to his former hometown of Hongzhou to rest.
Li Pu, the Marquis of Xinchang, is Li Yu's younger brother, and Zhang Wei, the governor of Jingzhou, was once a general under Li Yu. Even if Zhang Wei can no longer take orders from Li Yu at this time, it cannot be denied that Li Yu has an inferiority in Zhang Wei.
of influence.
Although Li Yu, the prince of eastern Zhejiang Province, stayed out of the matter of seizing his legitimate son, it was obviously impossible for him to live in seclusion in the mountains and fields any longer as the Chu country was turned upside down.
In addition to Li Yu living in seclusion in the mountains, there is another important figure in the Yang clan in Hongzhou, that is, the governor of Hongzhou and the king of Yuzhang County Yang Zhitang. Yang Zhitang is the cousin of Yang Yuanwo, Yang Yuanyan and Yang Yuanpu.
He is the son of the eldest brother of Emperor Tianyou, and together with Yang Jian, Marquis of Zhenyuan, he is one of the few important figures in the clan.
Yang Zhitang and Li Yu are actually two key figures who can determine an important turning point in the situation in Dachu.
"Draft an edict to send an envoy to Weizhou, and promote Weizhou's defense envoy Qin Shixiong to be the privy envoy. After receiving the order from Gu Ren, he immediately set off to Bianjing, and sent congratulatory king Zhu Rang to take over as Weizhou's governor. Weizhou's defense envoy...
"Zhu Yu gave up his worries about the southwest direction and waited for the eunuchs around him to prepare the edict with pen and ink.
Rather than worrying about Han Qian's whereabouts and Yang Yuanpu and others' choices in Tanzhou, the first thing he had to do was to stabilize the situation in Bianjing.
Lei Jiuyuan prides himself on thinking too long, but he also feels that the current situation that Daliang is facing is too complicated. If he is not careful, he will be doomed. It is difficult for just a few of them to consider everything thoroughly without making any mistakes.
The key now is to get the Central Academy Department up and running.
Especially when the Privy Council in charge of military aircraft returns to normal, the system of Bianjing City's favor will be operational, and then counter-insurgency, rotation of vassal towns, etc. can be carried out calmly.
Qin Shixiong was not only one of the four Jiedushi-level commanders, but also the most important general who followed the late emperor. He was the core figure in resisting the Jin army on the eastern front. He was also the brother of Qin Taifei and the uncle of He Wang Zhu Rang.
Zhu Yu led his troops into Bianjing. Surrounded by the guards, He Wang Zhu Rang fled Bianjing immediately and rushed to Weizhou to join Qin Shixiong. Qin Shixiong and He Wang Zhu Rang were the most likely to respond to Bo Wang Zhu Gui's move in Weizhou
A group of soldiers who raised an army and rebelled against it.
Zhu Yu decided to transfer Qin Shixiong back to Bianjing as the privy envoy and take charge of Bianjing's military aircraft. His half-brother He Wang Zhu Rang took over the military and political power of Weizhou, hoping to alleviate the concerns of the vassals in the towns and eliminate their rebellion.
However, it is still unknown whether this imperial edict can achieve the expected effect when it reaches Weizhou...
