Great Tang Southern Emperor

Immediately pulled out the secret letter, and quickly browsed through it. Li Zhen's eyes widened immediately, and then she couldn't laugh or cry: "Should I feel lucky, or should I be worried? Sure enough, I should feel lucky, right?"

"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Fang Yiai asked hastily.

"It's okay, we'll talk about it after camping." Li Zhen shook her head, destroyed the secret letter, and said as if nothing had happened.

"Yes." Fang Yiai understood it, and stopped asking.

Li Zhen also stopped talking, and closed her eyes to rest her mind, but her heart was active.

Chapter 412

Chapter 185 Soldiers Arriving at Sangapura

Xue Rengui's secret letter did not say anything else, but one thing, that is, the [-] troops he led arrived outside the city of Singapura three days after leaving Fuchun.But just when he was about to attack Sangapura, a plague broke out in the barracks, which made Xue Rengui very nervous. Although he knew afterwards that the malaria had been controlled and the infected people had been isolated, Xue Rengui But he didn't have the mood to continue to attack, he just stationed outside the city, staring at Sangapura.

In Sangapura City, the news of the front line's defeat has already come, and the people in the city are panicking. Now that there is news of the attack by the Tang army, it is completely messed up, the law is completely invalid, and people are robbed, raped and burned. Killing and looting happen almost every moment.

Even if the folks are like this, the big shots in the city are even more restless. You must know that most of these people participated in the formulation of the plan to attack Datang.Seeing that Datang came back with revenge, he panicked immediately, and kept sending people out of the city to contact Tang Jun. On the one hand, he wanted to know Tang Jun's attitude, whether it was a small punishment or a big punishment, and on the other hand, he surrendered. Many people are even willing to cooperate with the Tang army to open the city gate and welcome the Tang army to enter the city.

Xue Rengui has only been stationed outside the city for only three days, and he has received more than 30 letters of surrender. This made him dumbfounded, but he also felt contemptuous of these duplicitous rats—not only did he not want to serve the country when the country was in crisis , but wanting to join hands with foreign enemies is really not what a courtier should do.

If it is said that the important officials in the court may still have a way out, then as the initiator of this war and the number one culprit named by the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to be captured alive, King Fan Touli of Linyi is basically dead.

Today, Fan Touli basically doesn't trust anyone, almost three times a day, he doesn't even dare to sleep, for fear that his head will be decapitated while he is still in his dream.In the end, because of being too exhausted, and because of his poor health, Xue Rengui fell asleep during a doze five days after he was stationed outside the city, and never woke up again.

Speaking of Linyi, this country has been established for many years.Lin Yiguo was originally Xianglin County in the Han Dynasty, where Ma Yuan cast a pillar finger, and it is three thousand miles away from the South China Sea.At the end of the later Han Dynasty, the son of Gongcao of Xianglin Gong, named Qu Lian, killed the county magistrate and made himself king.

The communication between Linyi and the Central Plains Dynasty has never been cut off. From the Taikang period of Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, the exchange of tributes in the Central Plains began, especially in the Tang Dynasty.

It is recorded in "Old Tang Book Nanman Biography".

Lin Yiguo, the land of Xianglin in the south of Han Dynasty, is more than a thousand miles south of Jiaozhou.Its country extends for thousands of miles, and it is connected to Xiaozhou in the north.The climate is warm in winter, there is no ice and snow, and it is often foggy and rainy.The city where the king lives is built with trees as a fence.The king wears a Japanese felt ancient shell, slanted around his arms, around his waist, with pearls and gold locks on it, thinking of it as a necklace, curly hair and wearing flowers.The lady wears Zhaoxia Gubei as a short skirt, wears gold flowers on her head, and a golden lock and pearl necklace on her body.The king's bodyguards have 5000 soldiers, who can use crossbows and spears, use rattan as armor, use bamboo as bow, and fight on elephants.When the king came out, there were a thousand elephants and four hundred horses, divided into front and back.His fist hair is black, and the vulgar people are vain, so he gets musk to paint his body, and he paints and washes it again in a day.All of them clasped their palms together to pay homage.The law of marriage must take the same surname.There are words in the vulgar, especially believe in Buddhism, and many people become monks.When the parents die, the son plucks his hair and cries, puts the corpse in a coffin, gathers firewood to burn the coffin, collects the ashes, hides them in a golden vase, and sends them to the water.It is customary to regard December as the beginning of the year, and the rice will be ripe again when it is old.From then on to the south, the vegetation is flourishing in winter, lettuce is eaten at all seasons, and betel nut juice is used as wine.There is a Liao bird that can understand human language.

In the sixth year of Wude (623), his king Fan Fanzhi sent an envoy to the court.In eight years, he sent envoys to offer prescriptions.Gao Zu set up a banquet for "Nine Parts of Music", and bestowed Wang Jincai on it.At the beginning of Zhenguan, envoys were sent to tame the rhinoceros.Four years later, his king, Fan Touli, sent envoys to present fire beads, which were as big as chicken eggs, round and white, shining for several feet, shaped like water essence, and facing the sun at noon.Steam it with moxa, and it will burn.Five years later, he offered five-color parrots.Taizong made a difference, and ordered Li Baiyao, the prince's right concubine, to write a gift for him.He also presented a white parrot, who is good at answering questions.Emperor Taizong took pity on him and paid his envoy to let him go back to Linsou.Since then, the tribute has continued.Tou Li died, and Zi Fan Zhenlong stood on his behalf.When Emperor Taizong collapsed, the shape of Tou Li, a stone picture published in Yu Mausoleum, was ordered to be listed before Xuanque. In the 19th year, Zhenlong was killed by his minister Mahamandaga alone, and his clan was also killed by the barbarians, and the Fan family was extinct.The people of the country set up Touli's son-in-law Brahman as king.The later ministers and the people of the country felt sorry for the old master.It was the abolition of the Brahmin and the establishment of Touli's daughter-in-law as the king.

There are also records about Lin Yi in "New Tang Shu Nanman Biography".

King Huan, originally from Linyi, is called Zhanbulao, or Zhanpo.Directly to the south of the state, the sea travels three thousand miles.The land is three hundred miles from east to west, and thousands of miles from north to south.It is away from Wuwen Mountain in Chenla in the west and Benlangtuo Prefecture in the south.In the south of Dapu, there are five copper pillars, the shape of the mountain is like leaning on the cover, Chongyan in the west, Yahai in the east, planted by Han Mayuan.There are also Xi Tu Yi, who return Gai Yuan, and those who cannot stay, only ten households.At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were three hundred people, all of whom were surnamed Ma, so they were named "Maliuren" because they lived there.Its winter is warm, foggy and rainy, and amber, orangutan, and jieliao are produced.With February as the beginning of the year, the rice is ripe again, and the betel nut is sunk for wine, and the coconut leaves are used for the banquet.They are vulgar and fierce.

In Sui Renshou (601-604), general Liu Fang was dispatched to attack him, and his king, Fan Fanzhi, walked away, taking his land as the three counties and setting up guard orders.If the road is blocked and cannot pass, Fanzhi will leave the crowd, don't build a country.In Wude (618-626), envoys were sent to present prescriptions, and Gaozu set up nine music for them.During the time of Zhenguan (627-649), Wang Touli offered Taming Elephants, Lusuo, Five-Color Belts, Asahi Cloth, and Fire Beads, together with envoys from Poli and Rakshasa.Lin Yi's words were disrespectful, and the officials asked him about his crime.Taizong said: "In the past, Fu Jian wanted to swallow the Jin Dynasty. Millions of people died in the first battle. The Sui Dynasty took Koryo, and it was transferred every year. People resent each other, and it is the hands of dead men.

Chapter 413

Chapter 186 It's all gone

Through these materials, we can learn that Linyi was under the rule of the Fan Dynasty at this time, and he was not very honest. During the Renshou period (the reign of Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty), he fought against the Central Plains, and was defeated by General Liu Fang. The crusade forced King Fan Fanzhi to retreat, and the Sui Dynasty set up three counties in the original place, and directly classified this place as its own territory.

Seeing that the Sui Dynasty was not leaving, Fan Fanzhi had no choice but to gather up the old ministries and establish a state elsewhere. Since then, he has been honest for a while.Later, he and his son Fan Touli also paid tribute to the Tang Dynasty during the Wude and Zhenguan years, and contributed a lot of treasures.

It's just that Linyi's country is obviously the kind of bullying and fearing the hard. He remembers whether to fight or not to eat. Seeing that Datang treats him well, he thinks that Datang is afraid of them, so he started to taunt again, making rude remarks in the court, which angered the officials Furious, they asked Tang Taizong to attack Linyi one after another.However, Tang Taizong felt that it was not good to use weapons rashly (probably because he felt that the gains from this battle were not worth paying much, and it was not worthwhile), so he pardoned the crimes of the Linyi envoy.

In the fifth year of Zhenguan, Lin Yi presented rare birds such as five-color parrots. Li Shimin was greatly surprised, and rewarded Lin Yi again. Later, Fan Touli died (historical books did not say when he died. It must be before the 19th year of Zhenguan, and now it is the 16th year of Zhenguan, let him live), his son Fan Zhenlong succeeded to the throne, but this Fan Zhenlong's luck was not good. It was killed, and then the people of the country killed Maha Mandagadu and re-appointed Fan Zhenlong's sister as the queen, but then the people felt that the queen could not establish the country, so they welcomed Tou Li's cousin (aunt's son) Zhuge Di Becoming the king and marrying the queen to him is the only way to settle down (the name Huanwang was changed 100 years later)...

Since then, they have continued to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, and the Tang Dynasty has never treated them badly. The two sides have come and gone, which can be regarded as good-neighborly friendship.After another 100 years like this, Lin Yi felt that he was awesome, so he started to be embarrassed again.

After the fourth dynasty (that is, the lineage of Fan Fanzhi, Fantou Li, Fan Zhenlong, from the beginning of Ridharavarman I to the cessation of Jiandaravarman II), the tribute to the Tang Dynasty has been cut off.

Since the beginning of the Fifth Dynasty (that is, the Ring Kingdom), it has repeatedly invaded the Tang Dynasty.

Since the time of Indravarman I (the third monarch of the Ring Kingdom), he has been constantly harassing Datang, but at that time, the Ring King himself was also harassed by Malay pirates, so there was no war.

But in the time of his sister-in-law Harivarman I, the war began in the Tang Dynasty.

In December of the 18th year of Zhenyuan in the Tang Dynasty (Zhenyuan is the year name used during the reign of Emperor Dezong of Tang Dynasty, and this time period is also the period when King Harivarman I of the Huan Kingdom ruled the country), "Huanwang is in love and loves two states", that is, The army of the Kingdom of the Ring (namely Champa) attacked Huanzhou and Aizhou under the jurisdiction of the Annan Protectorate in the Tang Dynasty.

In the eighth month of the lunar calendar in 809 (the fourth year of Yuanhe reign, Emperor Xianzong of Tang Dynasty), Champa's army once again marched into the territory under the jurisdiction of Annan, but was defeated by Zhang Zhou, the governor of Annan. Champa suffered a lot in this battle, according to "New Tang Book" "Zhang Zhou held his fake Huan, the capital of Aizhou (referring to the officials placed by Champa), beheaded 59 ranks, captured 824 princes, and obtained war elephants, scorpions, and armor." Later, in November of the lunar calendar in [-], Zhanpo The mother-in-law and the Huangdongman teamed up to capture Annan Luzhou and killed the local governor Gewei...

And now the battle between Linyi and Datang proves all of this. Fan Touli thought he had the jumping camp as a basis, so he brazenly attacked Huanzhou and Luofuzhou. It's a pity that they met Li Zhen, otherwise this It is really possible that the two places were taken by them.

From this we can see that Lin Yi is really a white-eyed wolf among white-eyed wolves. Li Zhen still doesn't understand that for such a white-eyed wolf, the Central Plains Dynasty actually forgives and forgives them. Why?Isn't that too generous?That being the case, why did they react so violently in the face of rebellion within the country?Is it really an insider in the civil war and an outsider in the war?

Fortunately, when Li Zhen came, he was going to show the bigwigs in the court that even if it was a small country, it was still a country, and the profits from a war would definitely be considerable.

Closer to home...

Fan Touli died in panic because of the approach of the Tang army's soldiers. Lin Yi was in a state of leaderless dragons, and the court was in chaos. The ministers of the court were as busy as headless chickens, trying to elect a new king.The problem is that at this time, who would want to be the king who is destined to be the king of subjugation?

The sons of Fan Touli, who were fighting each other to the death on weekdays, have all become well-behaved babies now, where there is no activity on weekdays, but they stay behind closed doors all day, for fear that they will attract the attention of the princes in the court and be caught by them. Push on the throne covered with spikes.

Especially the prince Fan Zhenlong, originally according to the rules, the prince should succeed after the previous king died, and the ministers in the court also planned in this way.But Fan Zhenlong is not a fool, how could he succeed at this time?So he just couldn't get sick, lying on the bed every day, looking like he was half-dead, and even swallowed a secret poison in the palace. It's almost like dying. Even if you take the antidote, you can't recover at all without a three-year or five-year recuperation.

The ministers saw that the crown prince was like this, and it might be impossible to inherit the throne, so they turned their attention to Fan Zhenhu, the second son of Fan Touli. Fan Zhenhu was the most powerful of all Fan Touli's sons except Fan Zhenlong. It is also the one Fan Touli likes the most, and he is also Fan Zhenlong's biggest rival to inherit the throne, and the two sides are basically endless.

Now that Fan Zhenlong is dying, then...

After hearing that Fan Zhenlong was seriously ill and dying, Fan Zhenhu, who had been gloating over his misfortune, was stunned at that time—I'm (‵o′)bump, my good-for-nothing brother, when did I become so ruthless?But you are too damaged, right?You are seriously ill and dying, but what should I do...

Looking at the hopeful eyes of the important ministers who stomped the whole Linyi three times, Fan Zhenhu really couldn't say no to it, so he could only close his eyes in pain, as he agreed.

Just when the ministers thought they had finally found the culprit, Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of Fan Zhenhu's mansion, Fan Zhenhu's eyes suddenly opened, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth—don't think I don't know what you are all thinking, If you want me to be a blame man, there is no way.

Fan Zhenlong, you are indeed ruthless, but I am not a vegetarian, how could I be weaker than you...

then……

The next day, it was reported that Fan Zhenhu was seriously injured by an assassin last night...

Chapter 414

Chapter 187 Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea Each Shows Their Abilities

Those ministers who thought they had found the scapegoat were stunned at the time...

After visiting Fan Zhenhu, all the ministers gasped in unison. This Fan Zhenhu was really cruel to him.The whole person received a total of four cuts. One cut was on the heart, and it would hurt the heart within a centimeter. There is a skull in the way, otherwise I will die. The fourth knife is in the abdomen, and the intestines are almost twisted into a pot of porridge...

Fan Zhenhu was injured like this, not to mention inheriting the throne, even if he dared not move, otherwise, once the wound burst, it would be difficult for the gods to save him.

Looking at Fan Zhenhu who was lying on the bed with a face full of shame, everyone immediately admired him, his acting skills are amazing, Hollywood owes you a statuette.

But at the same time of admiration, they may not be without rejoicing in their hearts - Nima can be so cruel to himself, how cruel can he be to others?Fortunately, Fan Zhenhu crippled himself and couldn't be the king anymore. Otherwise, if he and others forcibly support him to the throne, maybe Fan Zhenhu would drag himself and others to be buried with him.

It's just that Fan Zhenhu didn't make it, then the third prince, Fan Zhenbiao, should be next...

Fan Zhenbiao is so different from the previous two elder brothers. This guy is a pure second-generation ancestor. Relying on his status as a prince, he often bullies men and women in Linyi. He spends all day wandering in Hualou Here, just passed out drunk in a tavern, a complete waste.

Originally, with his temperament, the throne would never be his turn, but now the throne is a hot potato, and all the princes avoid it, and only a piece of trash like him may be able to fool around for a while...

It's just that everyone underestimated this so-called trash. Fan Zhenbiao is useless, but that doesn't mean he's a fool. How could he get involved in such a thing at a time like this?
