[Wu Zetian] Queen's Road

Chapter 21 Second St. 06

At the beginning of the battle between Baekje and the Tang Dynasty, many nobles of Baekje fled to the country of Wa for refuge. Later, Queen Qiming decided to support Baekje's son Fu Yufeng to return to the country. As a result, Fuyufeng had internal strife with Onimuro Fukunobu and others shortly after returning to the country. , and was beaten by Liu Rengui in Zhouliucheng and fled.When returning to Japan again, Fuyufeng brought more than 3000 Baekje people.These Baekje people headed by Fu Yufeng found that there was no hope of restoring the country, so they settled down near the capital of the Wa king, married the nobles of the Wa country, and became a considerable force.

Later, in the Battle of Baicunjiang, the Japanese kingdom was defeated. Except for the thousands of troops sent by the eldest brother, the crown prince, who fled back, the rest of the nobles' soldiers and horses were wiped out.The Japanese were worried about Datang's revenge, so they tied Fu Yufeng to Datang to plead guilty.

Those Baekje people who stayed in the Wa Kingdom dared to be angry and dare not speak out, and finally, under the flickering of the eldest brother Crown Prince, they joined the Wa Kingdom royal family and became a surprise soldier under King Gecheng.

This time, since King Ge Cheng started to plan to assassinate the Empress of the Tang Dynasty, he first thought of this strange soldier.

King Ge Cheng's younger brother, Prince Hairen, thought more deeply than his elder brother.

"Brother wants to use these Baekje people to assassinate Emperor Tang, there is nothing wrong with that, but..."

After all, these Baekje people took refuge in the Wa Kingdom because they had nowhere to go, and their real master Fu Yulong, the governor of Baekje County, was still enjoying a good life in Luoyang. Long was very smart and took the initiative to express his belief that Governor Liu could manage the affairs of Baekje County well. It would be better for him to stay in Luoyang to serve his father Fuyu Yici.

Today's Tang Emperor, His Majesty Li Xiaojiu, has always been known for his filial piety and benevolence. When he heard Fu Yulong's words, there was no one who would not obey him. He also rewarded Fu Yu's father and son's family with a big reward, and promised a clan daughter to Fu Yulong as his wife.

Most of the Baekje exiles to the Wa country were originally timid and fearful nobles, and they had quite a few sources of information. Naturally, they knew that those nobles who followed the old lord to the Tang Dynasty had a good life and were completely lifeless. worry, even richer than when he was in Baekje...

What these people think in their hearts, the prince from Haihai can completely guess.

The treatment given to them by the Wa Kingdom can never be compared with the preferential treatment given by the Tang Dynasty. If these people intend to defect to the old lord, it is completely understandable. Perhaps more people are still targeting the senior officials of the Tang Dynasty. Lu went there!

Not to mention that the Hairen prince can figure this out, even the Emperor Tang should have this little idea, right?

Therefore, his elder brother still wanted to use Baekje people to deal with Emperor Tang, so what's the difference between that and meat buns beating dogs?

No, King Ge Cheng smiled immediately when he saw his younger brother's puzzled eyes, and Nakatomi Kamazu, who also understood, also showed a smile.

This scene looks like how the three of them looked back when there was no rift...

Zhongchen's sickle feet shook slightly, and then, as in the past, he explained his brother's intentions to the Hairen prince.

"Your Majesty wants to use these people to get close to Emperor Tang..." Needless to say, the Emperor Tang and his wife came to the old place of Baekje, and those Baekje people who were exiled in the Wa country went back and begged for surrender. How legitimate it was!

I believe that with Tang Huang's temperament, not only will he meet these Baekje people in person, but he will also publicize the preferential treatment policy for them...

If you give Tang Huang and his wife a blow at this time, the success rate is very high!

Moreover, who stipulates that those who follow the Baekje people back to the peninsula must be Baekje people?

"But..." Although the prince from Haihai felt that his brother's plan sounded good, there was obviously a huge loophole in the plan, "If Tang, who is in charge of Baekje, will not allow the Baekje people to go ashore, what should we do?" Or, General Tang simply detained people instead of letting them see Emperor Tang, so what should we do?

Zhongchen Lianzu heard the words, and smiled again: "The king has already dealt with this matter, you don't have to worry..."

It turned out that a plague of locusts occurred in Japan a few months ago, and the whole island was severely affected. Seeing that it was about to lead to famine, King Ge Cheng immediately sent envoys to neighboring countries to ask for food.

And the wealthy Tang Dynasty was the main borrower of the Wa country. It coincided with the new year of the Tang Dynasty, and King Ge Cheng sent a team of more than 200 Tang envoys to Chang'an in the name of court congratulations.

After this batch of Tang envoys arrived in Chang'an, they received the same treatment as that of Hanoi Whale's previous Tang envoys. They were placed under house arrest in the Sifang Pavilion. Except for the day of Chaohe, they almost never left the gate of the post house, so let alone taking the opportunity to observe. Datang's science and technology are advanced, even the matter of borrowing food has no chance to mention.

It was not until the Empress Dowager set out to inspect the eastern capital that the group of Tang envoys was told that they could leave Chang'an. As for the matter of borrowing food, there was an answer: it doesn't matter how much food you borrow, but you have to wait for the news three months later before you can leave. Help the Japanese country to transport it...

People have to bow their heads under the roof.

The Japanese envoys left Chang'an very hard, but they got news on the way, saying that the emperor and empress couple did not go south to Jiangnan after leaving Beidu, but went to Liaodong!

Therefore, the Japanese envoys followed Shengjia all the way to the peninsula—since the territory of the Tang Dynasty expanded to the Korean peninsula, the Japanese envoys did not need to take the risk of crossing the sea when they came to Datang. Landing from the peninsula, and then going overland is enough, and the same is true for returning.

The Japanese delegation followed the Emperor Tianhou to Liaodong City, and found that the Emperor Tang and his wife were going to visit the whole peninsula, so they immediately passed this information back to the Japanese country, so King Ge Cheng could grasp the situation of His Majesty Li Xiaojiu and his party so quickly.

Now that the missions of the Wa Kingdom are also on the peninsula, it would not be too abrupt if the Wa Kingdom sent ships to the Wa Kingdom to pick up the missions back home.In this way, the problem that Prince Hairen was worried about would not be a big problem!

Not to mention that the Wa Kingdom has already made up their minds to play tricks on the matter of receiving the Wa Kingdom's dispatch to the Tang Dynasty, but it is said that Wu Xu and Li Zhi took their two children around the city of Pyongyang and checked several state capitals. After reviewing the army stationed in Goguryeo County, they went to the next stop - Jincheng in Silla County.

Silla County is the only area among the three peninsulas that has no conflict with the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

The heirs of the former master of Silla, the Kim family, were very weak. The queen was on the throne for several consecutive dynasties. Finally, when Queen Jin Chunqiu was in power, he got a son. As a result, the prince was snapped by the Baekje rebels before he lived to be crowned. .

As the royal capital of Silla, Jincheng was once occupied by Baekje rebels. All the blood of the royal family were killed, and the nobles at all levels were also killed and injured.

Even if the Silla army that went north came back in time to King Qin, it was too late after all, and in the end they just fought with the Baekje rebel army and died together.

After that, Su Dingfang and Liu Renyuan took over Jincheng, and they spent more than half a year on post-war reconstruction work.

When Wu Xu and the others arrived in Jincheng, the city hadn't returned to its former prosperity for a while, but under the protection of the Tang army, the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

When they arrived in Jincheng, it was still the same as in Pyongyang before. Wu Xu first asked Dalang Erlang and the others to go to the palace to rest, and then he and Li Xiaojiu met the stationed civil and military officials.

The current chief stationed in Jincheng is Chen Mingzhen, a veteran who defeated Goguryeo in Guiduanshui. The three officials in charge of the general affairs are Zhang Wenguan, the former minister of the Ministry of Industry, Pei Yan, a Jinshi in the fifth year of Yonghui, and an elder of the Park family of Silla. By.

Zhang Wenguan was good at the study of classics, history, law and calculation, Pei Yan was good at punishment and prison, and the elder Pu was mainly responsible for handling the relationship between the masses. Silla was well managed by a few people.

Seeing that the situation in Silla was obviously more harmonious than that in Goguryeo, Wu Xu couldn't help being overjoyed, so he asked His Majesty Li Xiaojiu to reward a bunch of officials, and suggested that Pei Yan, a young official in charge of prisons, be transferred to Su Dingfang's place Listen to it and use it to make the best use of it—anyway, the security here in Silla is very good, and Pei Yan is also idle when he is idle.

Silla's side did not have to do much show, and it got an excellent response from the subjects below.

Wu Xu's mood is also quite relaxed. During the few days in Jincheng, she took a few children around - it's a rare opportunity to travel, wouldn't it be a waste if you don't have a good time?

And Jincheng is built on the east coast of the peninsula, and you can still see the vast sea when you go out of the city. The two children have never been outside of Yongzhou since they were born, and they have never seen the sea.The two brothers were a little shocked when they first saw the boundless ocean. Even Wu Xu, who had only seen the two-dimensional ocean before, was the first time to really see the ocean...

The three mother and son sighed with emotion at the vast ocean, and for some reason they talked about the country of Wa across the strait.

"The Wa country is narrow, surrounded by the sea, and lacks land resources. The people of the country mostly rely on fishing for a living..."

Wu Xu looked at the other side of the strait, and slowly said: "Although the country is small, the people's wisdom is high, and they know how to learn the essence of my Chinese nation, reform and strive to become stronger..."

"Aniang, is it because of this that you are determined to destroy the Japanese country?" His Royal Highness still doesn't understand why his mother is so obsessed with an island country far away overseas?

Wu Xu shook her head, but did not answer her son's question. After all, in the eyes of the people of Tang Dynasty, the Wa Kingdom is like a goat without horns. What is there to be afraid of? !

Speaking of which, Chinese people in the past were proud of other countries learning their own etiquette system. The way of the Japanese country is clearly in the appetite of those pedantic old men in the court!

Wu Xu's practice of strictly guarding against death is really quite weird!

Wu Xu didn't make a sound, Li Hong couldn't keep asking, and Erlang kept staring at the side of the sea in a daze...

Suddenly, many small black spots appeared at the junction of the sky and the sea in the distance...

"This is..." Wu Xu's eyesight is not good, and she couldn't see what those black spots were for a while.

On the other hand, Erlang looked at it for a while, and suddenly changed his expression: "It's a boat, a lot of boats!"

The accompanying guards immediately became nervous, and hurriedly asked Wu Xu's mother and son to return to the palace as soon as possible.

"Where is the Tang Navy?" Nima!Sea ships of unknown origin can be seen with the naked eye, and the intercepted cruiser is still missing!

Datang's coastal defense is really worrying...

The guards who followed were sweating: Tianhou was very angry, and the consequences would be serious!

At this moment, a cannon was heard suddenly, and a huge warship was seen coming from the south, heading straight for the unknown fleet in the distance.The author has something to say: Haiphong has always been China's weakness...
