Chapter seven hundred and eighty fourth private banquet
Luoyang will not send an envoy to Chengdu with Cao Zhe for the time being. According to Feng Yi, that would seem too impatient. However, he also suggested sending two bottles of light muzzleloader cannon as a national gift for Cao Zhe to bring back.
Chengdu Mansion, dedicated to the Lord of Shu, Wang Yong, and the generals of Shu.
In addition to the operation manual, Feng Yi also suggested contacting the Military Academy and sending instructors to urgently train the retinue of Shu envoy Cao Zhe, so that they could at least successfully launch projectiles after returning to Chengdu.
Feng Yi's suggestion was naturally not well-intentioned, but besides accepting it, could Cao Zhe refuse it?
Besides, perhaps only by bringing the two cannons back to Chengdu for direct demonstration would people not think that the Mongolian army's defeat in southern Shanxi was so unbelievable and unbelievable, right?
The affairs of Sichuan and Shu are not the most urgent. Even if the monarchs and ministers of Shu cannot accept Han Qian's conditions for welcoming Wang Yong to settle in Luoyang for a while, there is no problem in maintaining the status quo for the time being. There is still enough buffer time for negotiation.
However, after Sima De returned to Luoyang yesterday, he was much more urgent.
Of course, Sima De was much more urgent and anxious than Cao Zhe.
The Henan Marching Army and the Second Central Bank Camping Army, led by generals Han Yuanqi, Lin Haizheng, Han Donghu and other generals, will launch an attack on Bianliang City at any time.
While Liang Shixiong and Wei Bo's elite were destroyed in Xingyang, Zhu Rang and Liang Ren seemed to have gathered 60,000 to 70,000 soldiers and horses in Bianliang City, but there were not many elites left.
Besides, weren't the so-called Mongolian cavalry as fragile as paper in front of Liang Jun's indestructible battle formation and epoch-making artillery?
Not to mention that even if Bianliang is defended, it will not be possible to hold it for long. Sima De is even more worried that there are people in Bianliang City who are quick-thinking and can spot the opportunity and directly launch a mutiny. Zhu Rang, Liang Ren and other war criminals will surrender to Daliang. By that time,
What weight and value would it have if the Sima family surrendered the land of Xu Si again?
Returning to the city from Liuyunguan, Han Qian took Wang Jun and Zhao Ting'er and went directly back to Shangyang Garden. Feng Yi was responsible for hosting a banquet for Cao Zhe, Sima De and others.
The more Sima De thought about it during the banquet, the more he felt that he could not delay even a moment. He didn't take a few sips of wine before he asked Feng Yi: "The sons of the Sima family have long admired and admired the emperor for his grand strategy, generosity and benevolence.
, However, De suddenly got to see your Majesty today. At that time, I was overwhelmed by your grace. There were so many things I wanted to say that I was speechless and forgot to say them. Now that I think about it, it feels really uncomfortable to be stuck in my heart. The sky is so dark.
It’s still early, but I don’t know if I can meet with you at this time and express my admiration for you again?”
Seeing Sima De shamelessly uttering the word "Rumu", Feng Yi smiled inwardly and said that it was getting late at this time, and Han Qian was rarely in the mood to take his two concubines on a trip today. It was not appropriate to finally have some leisure time.
If he interferes with state affairs again, he will go to Lingyun Pavilion tomorrow to see if he can arrange a time and ask Sima De to come to Shangyang Garden to have an audience.
"Where is Li Junfu? Why didn't Mr. Feng invite Li Junfu to the banquet?" Sima De asked.
Li Zhigao, the two giants in Tiancheng's staff office, had a higher say than Feng Liao, Gu Qian, Han Daoming, Zhu Juezhong and other important officials on the issue of accepting Xu Si's army to launch an attack and cooperating in the attack on Bianliang.
While at Liuyun Temple, Sima De heard that Tian Chengming would go to southern Shanxi on behalf of Han Qian the day after tomorrow to reward the three armies for their great victory. Obviously, he would not directly interfere in the Hehuai War in the short term. Since he could not see Han Qian,
Sima De wanted to focus on Li Zhigao's work and did not want to delay it any longer.
"Li Zhigao and Yao Xishui officially recognized each other as brother and sister today. How could I be so boring and come to blame them?" Feng Yi said.
"This is something that should be celebrated in a big way. However, everything is still confidential, but it should be okay if we go over with drinks to congratulate you." Sima De stared at Feng Yi almost pleadingly, feeling that if he could not see Li Zhigao, he would not be able to see Li Zhigao tonight.
Don't think about falling asleep.
"Okay, then let's be uninvited guests!" Feng Yi said.
…………
…………
Wang Jinrong and Yao Xishui left Liuyun Temple directly today.
He had to select some men from the Guanjiang Tower disciples who were captured during the Great Victory in southern Shanxi and the disciples of the gentry who fled north to sneak to Mobei. There were still many things to arrange and prepare. However, after returning to Luoyang City, Li Zhigao just asked Wang Jinrong to follow Wang Che and leave first.
, he took Yao Xishui back to his house,
Even if the possibility is extremely small, we must be careful that the Mongol people have spies who have slipped through the network and are lurking in Luoyang, so the matter cannot be publicized for the time being.
However, it was okay for Li Zhigao to take Yao Xishui back to his house for a private gathering.
How to deal with the nobles who fled north was a top secret before, and Li Zhigao would not tell Su Hongyu casually when he returned home.
When she saw Li Zhigao bringing Yao Xishui back, Su Hongyu was so happy that she shouted to Chun Shisanniang to bring over the best wine she had brewed and drink it.
There was no need for Li Zhigao to accompany them, so the three women found a cozy pavilion to have a good time together.
Before Feng Yi and the others arrived uninvited, Su Hongyu was slightly tipsy and sat between Yao Xishui and Chun Shisanniang. She couldn't help but sigh:
"If Madam had made up her mind to marry Xishui to Han Qian, it would have been a completely different situation, right?"
"Even if Xi Shui is not so stubborn, Madam, Marquis Xinchang is not willing to give in to the other side. With Han Qian's methods and strategies, wouldn't he be eaten up by him without leaving any bones?" Chun Shisanniang shook her head and said with emotion, "
When I was in Liangzhou, I figured it out: I can't fight at all, and I can't struggle to escape, so why bother?"
Yao Xishui sighed quietly and did not want to think about the past anymore. She left Liuyun Temple and found out that the reason why she received the amnesty was other than to recruit some details of the nobles who fled north.
Li Xiu, Li Qi, Li Yan and others are all generals of the Liang Army now. Li Zhigao wrote several letters for her pardon. He also visited Li Xiu, Li Qi and Li Yan in person to plead for her mercy when they returned to Beijing.
With their agreement and understanding, the amnesty was naturally approved.
Of course, Zhao Wuji and Ye Feiying also said a lot during this process. After all, Li Qi was serving as the general in front of Zhao Wuji's tent at this time.
Neither Lu Qingxia nor Zhou Yuan will receive amnesty. After all, they are most directly responsible for the palace coup and the death of Li Changfeng and even Li Pu. This is also the last insistence of the Li family, but for Lu Qingxia and Zhou Yuan,
For Yuan and the others, staying in Liuyun Temple would not be a bad destination.
"But if you are willing to go north on this trip, everything will go well." Yao Xishui sighed softly, his beautiful eyes that had already grown wrinkles at the corners of his eyes slightly narrowed, and he looked at the lights in the pavilion in a trance, with a trace of worry in his eyes.
Chun Shisanniang laughed and said: "With Han Qian's methods, there is no need to fight with you and me. I know that I am waiting for you to send the news from Mobei, and I will become the first canonized person in the new dynasty.
You don’t need to worry about Han Qian going back on his promise in the future. Since ancient times, tyrants have killed people because they have no other means to control their subordinates and cannot control the situation. If the king and his ministers are jealous of each other, it is because of the king’s suffering.
The ministers are threatened, and the ministers are worried that their talents and prestige will be jealous of the emperor, so they are panicked. Tell me, does this exist in Luoyang? In any era, Zhigao is worthless
It’s a famous general, but among Luoyang, Tian Cheng, Gao Shao, Wen Bo, Jing Zhen, Zhao Wuji, Feng Xuan, Li Xiu, Han Yuanqi, Chen Kun and Kong Xirong, which one is worse than Zhigao? And these people got it
Together, together with Han Qian, they are all lost to everyone. Take this great victory in southern Shanxi as an example, will that fool Kong Xirong take the credit and be arrogant, or will it be Li Xiu or Han Donghu who will take the credit and be arrogant and self-righteous? However, everyone is good
Ah, in this way, the king and his ministers can be at peace with each other, and there is no need to be suspicious, and there is no need to worry about accompanying the king like a tiger, how comfortable it is!"
Yao Xishui thought about it. He had been hit many times over the years and had never even had a chance to win the flag. Who could still have delusions in his heart?
Chun Shisanniang was slightly drunk and chatting enthusiastically, and said: "Besides, even if you are worried about being jealous, it is the Zhu family. Didn't you see that Zhu Juezhong and Chen Youjian wanted to strip Yun He naked?" I tucked myself into Han Qian's bed and felt at ease - but Han Qian has been to the academy several times recently, and Yun He has been with him, so maybe they have colluded..."
At this time, when she heard Feng Yi's voice coming from the front yard, Chun Shisanniang suddenly woke up from her drunken state and asked in confusion: "What is he doing here at this time?"
After a while, Li Tian came over and invited the three girls to meet Feng Yi and Sima De in the front yard.
"Why are you here at this time?" Su Hongyu asked curiously.
Even though they were accompanying her to Liuyun Temple all day long, the whole night hadn't passed yet, and yet they came to her house again?
"Sima De told his father that he wanted to see you again as soon as possible before he settled in," Li Tian said.
"The Sima family is too impatient, isn't it?" Su Hongyu said with emotion.
"In this current situation, the movement is a bit slow, and good goods cannot be sold at a good price. Isn't it bad?" Chun Shisanniang said with a smile.
Yao Xishui was indeed a little worried that she and her eldest brother were the survivors of the previous dynasty, and this time they went north to recruit the survivors of the previous dynasty. Even if things were done well, they would not be able to escape suspicion. However, Jingchun Thirteenth Mother's explanation did realize that she Thinking too much.
Nowadays, no one can shake the foundation that Han Qian has laid over the years. There should be few people who overestimate their capabilities and have any delusions. There is indeed nothing to worry about...
