Don't go down if you have a kind [Rebirth]
Chapter 14 Sui Gong
Wangjing Guan, as the name suggests, can see Kyoto.In my previous life, I forced the good king who was stationed in the three northern states to return to the capital. The enemy army waited for an opportunity to make a surprise attack. Wangjing Pass fell overnight, and the Central and Northern Plains fell instantly.
So I'm very nervous now.
And all the lovers didn't care about my feelings at all. They started a heated discussion on the question of "Who should guard the Wangjing Pass" and "how to inherit and carry forward the traditional virtues of Daxing Tian/chao/humility and comity".
The result of the discussion is probably to keep the "virtue" - they firmly believe that "lenient, benevolent and honest" can defeat others without fighting. The road of peaceful development brought by Princess Heyang.
When they mentioned Princess Heyang, I became even more nervous: "Who is my brother-in-law now?"
The old Shang Shu of the Ministry of War said: "It's the sick young prince Apu Nu, Your Majesty, the leader of the army this time is Apu Nu. He married the princess from Wangjing Pass, and he will not step into the pass!"
I:"……"
The old man was heartbroken, and it was this sick man who was about to cough three times after taking a breath.My elder sister has had four husbands successively: Apunu, Apunu's brother, Apunu's nephew, and Apunu.That's right, the thing is like this, sister and brother Apunu held two weddings.
Except for her first marriage, which was arranged by her parents, my elder sister has no right to choose her own choice. Every time she gets married after that, she makes full use of the Qiang people's free choice of spouse that "marry if I want to marry, and those who stand in my way die, whoever loves me" view.The brother-in-laws she found for me were braver and more brutal than the last. The Apunu 30 years later will be the [-] version of Apunu.
The high-end version of Liangwang can carry the [-] version of Apunu, the factory reset version of Liangwang and the [-] version of Apunu... Well, the factory version of Liangwang is not in the service area.
I was going to turn my eyes blind and leave the matter to Zhao Guang and Xue Dai. Anyway, the Beiqiang in my previous life did not perish in Daxing.However……
"Your Majesty! His Royal Highness the King of Yan will not guard this Wangjing Pass! After Gongsun Xiaoshi usurped the military power in Yunzhou, he colluded with the henchmen of King Jin of Cangzhou to smuggle iron ore from Liangzhou in exchange for horses from the Qiang people. His Royal Highness Yan Wang had already reminded him." Your Majesty, but your Majesty is suspicious of King Yan, so ignore it!" The Yunzhou resident in Beijing blushed and his neck was thick with excitement, "Now that the incident happened, the Qiang people declared war because of the untimely delivery of the Gongsun Xiaoshi iron ore, and His Majesty remembered Yan. king……"
"Wait, wait," I said with a dazed look on my face, "What about King Jin, Liangzhou, iron mines, and return of horses? How did Liangzhou get involved?"
"Your Majesty," Zhao Guang explained thoughtfully, "There are iron mines in Liangzhou. Originally, the King Jin of Cangzhou colluded with local officials and businessmen in Liangzhou to buy and sell iron ore, privately forge weapons, and traded iron ore and weapons with Northern Qiang for horses." , earn money, and raise soldiers. Later, Gongsun Xiaoshi also wanted to make money to raise soldiers, so he did it with King Jin. But Gongsun didn’t understand the market, and the business collapsed, and Bei Qiang was angry and wanted to beat him.”
Ma Dan really should fight, I said angrily: "Tell King Yan, Gongsun doesn't want it anymore, throw it to Apunu, King Yan's army retreats to Zhongzhou, Zhongzhou Zhili army will give him a leg, if Cangzhou and Minzhou don't want it Face to death together!"
"Your Majesty! The Minzhou Army is willing to advance and retreat with Your Majesty!" The representative of Minzhou expressed his attitude positively.
"Your Majesty! I came to Kyoto from Cangzhou 20 years ago. I have never met His Royal Highness the King of Jin. I have no knowledge of the smuggling of iron ore in Cangzhou!"... Cangzhou represents positive and reactionary Forces disassociate themselves.
And I am not interested in them at all: "Where are the people from Liangzhou! Where are the people stationed in Liangzhou in Beijing! Where is the inspector's censor! Bring them all to me!"
——You can pluck the wool of socialism, dig into the corners of socialism, and steal the mines of socialism, but you cannot break ground on the head of the good king Taisui.
Although Xiao Taisui just gave me a hand knife yesterday, stole my jade seal, and may give me medicine one day in the future, and force the queen to be placed on my dragon bed...but now he is very serious about my country. Words matter.
Liangzhou is so chaotic, what should he do if he falls headlong into my country?
I was so anxious that there was a burning bubble on my mouth.
One day after the imperial court, Wei Pei found me in private and said, "Wangjingguan has been guarded by the king of Yan. Don't be too impatient. The case of the Qingzhou imperial examination here has been investigated. Please let your majesty know about the iron mine in Liangzhou." Hand it over to the Hongdu Mansion, the two cases will be merged into one, and King Jin will be investigated immediately."
As soon as I heard "Liangzhou", I panicked. The emperor's nephew said that he "go to Liangzhou to investigate the case of King Jin".Did he open his eyes?He already knew that someone was digging his iron mine?
"Your Majesty?" Wei Pei called me, "Your Majesty, at this time, it may be possible to order His Royal Highness King Liang to leave Beijing for Liang, and stay in the state capital to investigate the case strictly."
"It's better for you to check." I was very anxious, "Wei Qing, do you know how long it takes to ride a horse from Kyoto to Liangzhou? How long does it take to ride? How long does it take to walk? Are there many bandits on the road?"
Wei Pei stared at me: "Your Majesty, has His Highness Prince Liang left the capital secretly?"
I was shocked: "How do you know!"
He glanced at me again, and said in detail: "Your Majesty is wise. If that's the case, judging by the blisters and scabs on His Majesty's mouth, His Royal Highness King Liang may have arrived in Liangzhou. To hear the news of King Liang's arrival, please His Majesty immediately dispatch two thousand troops from Li Mingchong to suppress bandits along the way, behead local officials, and seek justice for His Highness."
I just passed out.
I lay in bed with a high fever for three full months, until my own mother stood in front of me, and I didn't even recognize that it was my second uncle and grandpa.
My second uncle and grandpa were also Taoists.But Taoist priests probably also have factions. For example, the queen never dances to the big god.
The second uncle and grandpa danced around me for three days and three nights, and finally said to my empress: "Your Majesty, his soul is unstable, and the gods and Buddhas should not wow."
My master Jiezi monk kicked him from the side: "Fart your mother!"
Zhao Guangheng interjected: "Your majesty, the old minister suggests that your majesty should confer the name of the queen mother on Jiang's daughter as the empress, to congratulate Your Majesty."
Xue Dai said rigidly: "The minister thinks that two-handed preparations should be made. The queen mother must install a new emperor before the kings enter the capital."
My poor empress is like a little white rabbit trapped in a den of wolves and tigers.If I'm not mistaken, they've got my coffin boards all ready to be stuffed in and nailed as soon as I die.But I couldn't stop thinking about it, so I hanged it in one breath, and hung it for another three months.
By the time I can get up from the sick bed, it will be late autumn.After Brother Apunu was driven out of Wangjing Pass by King Yan, Yaoyao sent me a letter of condolences, saying that he and I were "the same people who have fallen in the end of the world", and agreed that after we both recovered from our illnesses, we would fight together for [-] rounds.
I was deeply stimulated, eager to get rid of the name of a sick child, and started to practice swords with the old monk from dawn to dusk.
With the tricks I learned from the guards in the palace, I went to Sumeru Temple to be beaten for three months, rain or shine.The old monk was sitting on the lotus flower seat, and struck me with three wooden fish hammers.
I am angry every day: "Why don't you teach me!"
"Why are you sick?"
I pointed at him and yelled at him: "You shrink your head, you are about to die, hold your broken scriptures and rot in the temple! Grandpa Wendi's coffin is held down by you!"
"Tell me why you are sick, and come to me after you figure it out," he gradually didn't even care about Grandpa Wendi, "Xiao Maotou, are you doing it for Daxing?"
Judging by the way he asked the question, he must have thought that his words would be like a blow to my head, just waiting for me to suddenly realize that I put down the butcher knife and turned back.But I really don't understand - why am I not doing it for Daxing?
I was so worried about this problem that I gave up until the monk knocked on a basket of wooden fish hammer heads.It rained heavily in midsummer that day, and it was the fifth anniversary of my accession to the throne, the anniversary of my father's death.I sat drinking in the Taixi Pavilion of Shibo.
Wine is poured into sorrow and sorrow is even more sorrowful.I started dreaming again.After dreaming that King Liang disappeared for three months, eight days and five and a half hours, the Liangzhou government hurriedly said that they had caught a beggar pretending to be a royal family member, and asked if they wanted to kill him.I was startled from the illness, and I sent someone to take the beggar to the capital in a panic. It was not my emperor's nephew.Another three months later, Li Mingchong escorted 37 Liangzhou local officials back to Beijing. Xue Shang used [-] methods of torture in Dali Temple to torture them, but he failed to find any trace of Liangwang.In another three months, the news of King Liang's disappearance from the capital will be known all over the world. People all over the world have insightful rumors that I use King Liang to divert the attention of King Yan and King Jin, and wait for King Yan and King Jin to rush into Chen Zhima's rotten millet warehouse In the old case of the East Palace in Li, he crossed the river and demolished the bridge and killed King Liang.Did I kill King Liang again?
I was frightened by this thought and woke up in a dream, dripping with cold sweat.After thinking about it for a while, I found that the dream was not logical.In reality, King Liang had only been missing for more than ten months. At the end of that year, he paid me a yearly tribute.
Liangzhou is not richer in fish and rice than Qingliu Erzhou, nor stronger than Cangyun Erzhou in soldiers and horses, so it is not incomprehensible that his yearly tribute was particularly poor that year.The Liangzhou envoy held a wooden box the size of a palm, looked at the white eyes of the civil and military courts, and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Liang wishes you the best of health."
The box contained a letter and a stone ring.
He wrote in his letter: Uncle Fourteen, the road has been full of twists and turns. As soon as I took office, I couldn't convince the public. The state officials would refuse to pay the tribute because I blew up the iron mines in Qingniling.I heard that this matter has been filed in Hongdu Mansion, I hope Fourteenth Uncle will inform Mr. Wei, and don't convict me.There is nothing else in Liangzhou, only the mountains and rocks are very beautiful, for you to play with.
After reading the family letter, I was very happy, but the beautiful mountain stone ring aroused my sorrow.
Because this ring is very familiar, it is black and ugly, half stone and half jade, not square and not round, if you put it on your finger and turn it ten times or eight times, you can't turn it around. face.The good king in his previous life had two things that never left him, one was the sword and the other was it.
The half-life objects that people wear with them either have practical functions or special meanings.A sharp sword can defend oneself and kill the enemy, but what can that cheap ugly stone ring do?Is it stinky?
Xue Shang also expressed his puzzlement about this. At a certain palace banquet, he whispered to King Liang, "Where did you get His Highness's finger puller? I have a new batch of Qingzhou jade materials in my house, and they are all high-end goods. Why don't you buy them later?" The banquet is over, Your Highness will pick a few pieces with me."
King Liang raised his head and glanced at me subconsciously when he heard the words, and said in a low voice through the room full of hairpins and clothes: "It's enough to draw a bow and finger guard, made from leftover materials picked up in the mine."
He lied carefully, he should wear his right hand when pulling his fingers and pulling strings, but he wears his left hand.
This ring, the phrase "Get out", and the sentence before his death have become the three mysteries that haunt me.
Monk Mustard Seeds made me reflect on myself, and five years passed by in a flash, and I reflected on one point, that is, distance creates barriers and time dilutes feelings.If I lived in the same palace with King Liang when I was young, and went to school together, after the collapse of the Eastern Palace, I would ask the emperor to secretly take him over to raise him, and make him Queen Liang, and I would call him back to Beijing for a short stay every now and then, and send him less. When the soldiers go out to fight, they will call Zhao Shuo more often. In this way, uncles and nephews will be harmonious, and the monarch and ministers will treat each other with sincerity, so there is no need to be afraid of internal and external troubles.
I euphemistically expressed this idea to several lovers, hoping to call King Liang back to Beijing this year.Xue Shang said: "Your Majesty still needs to rely on King Yan and King Jin to defend against the Qiang enemies. King Liang has a special status, so if he rashly summons him to Beijing, all the kings will be in chaos again."
Wei Pei said: "Five years ago, Your Majesty knew why Master Xue was trying to protect King Liang to stay in Beijing. Now Master Xue doesn't want King Liang to return to Beijing, but because he saw that King Liang's foundation in Liangzhou is getting stronger and his army is getting stronger. Xue Your Excellency is dedicated to the good king, not the country, so it is unbelievable."
I said happily: "Then Wei Qing agrees with my calling Liang Wang back to Beijing?"
Unexpectedly, he said: "I don't agree with King Liang's return to Beijing, but I hope that your Majesty will send King Liang to fight. Apunu is seriously ill, the Northern Qiang reserve is unstable, and the three kings are in conflict. With spare hands, Cangzhou lost nine cities in a row and Changheguan could not be attacked for a long time. At this time, the Liangzhou army was increased. First, it will be able to retreat the Qiang enemy, and second, it will take the opportunity to frustrate the Jin army. case and the iron mine case, and be convicted together.”
Seeing me hesitate for a moment, he immediately added: "Isn't it just for this day that Your Majesty supported the good king?"
This... how should I put it, when Wei Pei asked me this question, I started to doubt myself: If I want to rely on the good king to revitalize the country, I must treat him with sincerity, and if I want to take care of him with all my heart, I must face him day and night, so I don’t care. I would like to let him go to Liangzhou, but I don't want to send him to the battlefield—but if he doesn't go to Liangzhou, he doesn't go to the battlefield. Can Liang Wang, who grew up in the warm wind and drizzle, still be able to challenge the national fortune of Daxing?
I was very confused, drank too much wine, and felt that life was like a dream, and everything was empty.I can't help but think indulgently, if the country dies, everyone dies, and I have been here all my life. Since they are all fake, can I not be so restrained and do whatever I want?
So on this stormy night, when Zhao Shuo arrived as promised with two taels of side dishes, I made an important decision: "Yuan Hui, take me away."
"Ah?" Zhao Shuo was frightened, "What...what? Ten...fourteen, you and me...I treat you...no, no, no, you can't make your majesty..."
"Hush—" I threatened, "You break out of the camp tomorrow and bring me with you, otherwise I will withdraw the order and let you go back to the root of the city wall and guard the gate for the rest of your life."
"...Your Majesty, are you treating me like this for the sake of my eldest nephew?"
Yuan Hui is the most tempered person. When I secretly cut my father's beard when I was a child, he was willing to pass me the scissors by the side.Afterwards, he was punished for me, and at most he could scold him a few words: "Zheng Shishi, you heartless, forgetful brat, I really misjudged you!"
I have accumulated a lot of guilt towards him, and before I left, I specially wrote five secret edicts, which were given to the emperor's mother, Wei Pei, Xue Shang, Xue Shang's father, and Yuan Hui's grandfather, to encourage everyone not to mess up, work together, and serve in my humble service During the visit, they will manage state affairs together and follow expediency.With such a good explanation, it is presumable that Mr. Zhao Ge will not die of illness due to overwork, the Queen will not come back to kill me one day, and Yuan Hui will not grow closer to me in the future.
The Zhongzhou Army increased its troops to the front line, and 2 horses went straight to Changhe Pass in Cangzhou.I pretended to be Zhao Shuo's personal guard and accompanied me to Qingniling, the junction of the two prefectures of Cangliang. I was about to bid farewell to the army and cross the mountain to enter Liangzhou, but unexpectedly, I encountered an unknown attack. Lost the shit out of it.
Unfortunately, I became a prisoner of war.
So I'm very nervous now.
And all the lovers didn't care about my feelings at all. They started a heated discussion on the question of "Who should guard the Wangjing Pass" and "how to inherit and carry forward the traditional virtues of Daxing Tian/chao/humility and comity".
The result of the discussion is probably to keep the "virtue" - they firmly believe that "lenient, benevolent and honest" can defeat others without fighting. The road of peaceful development brought by Princess Heyang.
When they mentioned Princess Heyang, I became even more nervous: "Who is my brother-in-law now?"
The old Shang Shu of the Ministry of War said: "It's the sick young prince Apu Nu, Your Majesty, the leader of the army this time is Apu Nu. He married the princess from Wangjing Pass, and he will not step into the pass!"
I:"……"
The old man was heartbroken, and it was this sick man who was about to cough three times after taking a breath.My elder sister has had four husbands successively: Apunu, Apunu's brother, Apunu's nephew, and Apunu.That's right, the thing is like this, sister and brother Apunu held two weddings.

I was very confused, drank too much wine, and felt that life was like a dream, and everything was empty.I can't help but think indulgently, if the country dies, everyone dies, and I have been here all my life. Since they are all fake, can I not be so restrained and do whatever I want?
So on this stormy night, when Zhao Shuo arrived as promised with two taels of side dishes, I made an important decision: "Yuan Hui, take me away."
"Ah?" Zhao Shuo was frightened, "What...what? Ten...fourteen, you and me...I treat you...no, no, no, you can't make your majesty..."
"Hush—" I threatened, "You break out of the camp tomorrow and bring me with you, otherwise I will withdraw the order and let you go back to the root of the city wall and guard the gate for the rest of your life."
"...Your Majesty, are you treating me like this for the sake of my eldest nephew?"
Yuan Hui is the most tempered person. When I secretly cut my father's beard when I was a child, he was willing to pass me the scissors by the side.Afterwards, he was punished for me, and at most he could scold him a few words: "Zheng Shishi, you heartless, forgetful brat, I really misjudged you!"
I have accumulated a lot of guilt towards him, and before I left, I specially wrote five secret edicts, which were given to the emperor's mother, Wei Pei, Xue Shang, Xue Shang's father, and Yuan Hui's grandfather, to encourage everyone not to mess up, work together, and serve in my humble service During the visit, they will manage state affairs together and follow expediency.With such a good explanation, it is presumable that Mr. Zhao Ge will not die of illness due to overwork, the Queen will not come back to kill me one day, and Yuan Hui will not grow closer to me in the future.
The Zhongzhou Army increased its troops to the front line, and 2 horses went straight to Changhe Pass in Cangzhou.I pretended to be Zhao Shuo's personal guard and accompanied me to Qingniling, the junction of the two prefectures of Cangliang. I was about to bid farewell to the army and cross the mountain to enter Liangzhou, but unexpectedly, I encountered an unknown attack. Lost the shit out of it.
Unfortunately, I became a prisoner of war.
