Chapter 3 Tang Feng Legacy Rhyme
has always been young and limited, and it is easy to lose his soul when he is idle, and he is not willing to resign from the wine banquet and songs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The mountains and rivers are full of empty thoughts, and the falling flowers and wind and rain hurt the spring even more, so it is better to take pity on the people in front of you.
Wu Yanrou sat upright on his beloved red rabbit horse, and the pair of slender and sharp eyes under the golden Chaofeng battle helmet were squinting into a line and looking into the distance. At this moment, under the slope I am in, the winding mountains, the misty rain make the mountains in front of me and in the distance picturesque. Wu Yanrou knew that after going down this long hill and turning over the steamed bun-shaped mountain opposite, it was the last post station leading to Xingwangfu.
Instinctively reaching out and gently stroking the snake spear spear that was holding the saddle side of the horse in front of him, Wu Yanrou's resolute and somewhat handsome face had no expression. Although he was a little excited in his heart, but after several trials over the years, his joys, sorrows and sorrows would not be easily revealed, and he didn't care at all even if the rain fell. The golden chain mail on his body looked particularly bright and eye-catching under the rain. Although it is very close to the post station and not far from the Xingwang Mansion, Wu Yanrou did not relax herself in the slightest, for the Wei Wang who was protecting herself in the car behind her, Wu Yanrou had mixed feelings in her heart, and all kinds of thoughts were in her heart.
It was still about half a year ago, and Wu Yanrou was just a close attendant of the emperor's side, the captain of the horse army. An occasional opportunity to accompany the emperor and hunt with a few princes and kings. Because King Wei was too fat to ride a horse for a long time, he ordered a few guards to hunt on foot with him.
Although since Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty, all the royal sons have both civil and military skills. Even the king in front of him was also a civil and military cultivator when he was a child, but since his body became fat, he didn't like to move, and all kinds of martial arts were wasted for a long time. King Wei's hunting and archery is naturally unsatisfactory, but he is obviously extremely good-looking, and he doesn't want to lose face in front of members of the imperial family and several ministers close to the emperor. asked the accompanying guards to hunt for themselves, because King Wei was the most loved by Emperor Liu Sheng, which was also everyone's default unspoken rule in the royal family.
It just so happened that Wu Yanrou followed King Wei to protect him that day, he was originally excellent in martial arts, his fists, feet, weapons and archery skills were all first-class, hunting was a piece of cake for him, there were many prey in the royal hunting ground, and he didn't need to show off anything at all, Wu Yanrou easily accompanied King Wei to hunt a wild deer and a wild boar. This wild deer runs very fast, and the wild boar is very ferocious, and even the hunters who hunt every day may not be successful.
King Wei was naturally very happy at that time, and he was very interested in himself, and when chatting, he casually asked himself some thoughts and wishes, and Wu Yanrou inevitably said that he wanted to open up territory and conquer the world for the emperor. Although this King Wei is usually playful and moody, he has also been taught by the kings for a long time, and the emperor has always taught him as the prince.
King Wei was happy for a while and personally completed the hunt, and finally when the emperor was rewarding his merits, he told the emperor that Wu Yanrou was both civil and military, and suggested that the emperor use Wu Yanrou as a general, and even wanted Wu Yanrou to go to his mansion. Because of King Wei's whim, Wu Yanrou turned gorgeously from a small guard captain.
Emperor Liu Sheng originally favored King Wei, and because Wu Yanrou had another subtle identity, he personally examined Wu Yanrou's martial arts. Wu Yanrou became a real guard and commanded from the horse, which is already a relatively high military rank in the armies of the five generations of countries, and for Wu Yanrou, who has always wanted to make contributions, this is undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
In the period of the five dynasties when the war was raging and the dynasty was constantly changing, there were many people who left a name in history with their literary and martial arts, and Wu Yanrou was naturally ambitious. However, for the Southern Han Dynasty in the south of the Lingnan Mountains, there has always been a strange phenomenon. This phenomenon is that in order to prevent the military generals from being divided like local warlords in the late Tang Dynasty, Liu Yan, the emperor of the founding of the country, sent the assassins and jiedu envoys to various states in the country were all literati. This made the Southern Han Dynasty free of secession and turmoil for decades, and also made the arrogance of military generals at all levels and the desire to interfere in politics useless, and also made the historical national fortune of the Han Kingdom second only to the Wu Yue Qian Dynasty.
Later, Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty, unified the Central Plains, and also adopted this measure implemented by Liu Yan, the ancestor of the Southern Han Dynasty, to completely put an end to the chaos of the warriors since the Tang Dynasty. Of course, everything and affairs seem to have a good side and a bad side, and this measure also made the court of the Southern Han Dynasty and the later Song Dynasty weak and incompetent. At the end of the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, only the Southern Han court could implement this strategy. Because the Southern Han Dynasty favored the active economy of Lingnan, there was almost no frequent wars like in the Central Plains, which also made the Southern Han Dynasty court at all levels and levels have great talents and ambitious generals have no place to display.
However, Wu Yanrou knew that the current emperor Liu Hongxi (Sheng) was quite ambitious, and since he ascended the throne, he has successively won eighteen states from the neighboring state of Ma Jia Chu. This deliberately enterprising move also made generals at all levels eager to move, and they all wanted to follow the emperor to show their talents. Wu Yanrou, who has both civil and military skills since he was a child, naturally hopes that he can show his talents, so he is not only grateful to King Wei, but also always wants to repay him.
But soon after that, King Wei had an accident on horseback, and although Wu Yanrou also knew about it, she couldn't do anything because of her identity. Just when I could only sigh in my heart, I learned that King Wei was sent to Luofu Mountain for medical treatment, and after several tosses, he was actually cured by Daozun. Wu Yanrou was naturally overjoyed in her heart, and later heard that the emperor had ordered someone to take King Wei back to the palace, so she made a statement to the emperor through the master who was deeply respected by the emperor, and volunteered to come to Luofu Mountain to pick up King Wei, and was responsible for protecting the safety of King Wei's party.
Because she was grateful to King Wei and even more so to repay King Wei, Wu Yanrou knew that making such a choice would undoubtedly make people feel that she and King Wei were on the same team. For political conspiracy, King Wei has not yet reached a certain height, and for network resources, King Wei does not have a certain breadth in the court, so it is not a good thing for Wu Yanrou to choose a position, but Wu Yanrou did not regret it when she went to beg the master, although the master did not say anything and did not stop himself.
This King Wei has been reckless when he was in the Wangfu, and his personality is extremely eccentric and extreme, so his reputation in the court and the people is not good. Moreover, there were many civil and military officials in the court who opposed the defense of the king, but because of the emperor's consistent strength, those different voices and actions were suppressed.
Wu Yanrou's own master is Yang Jiong, a sick tiger known as the second servant of the dragon and tiger by the emperor's side, and he is usually inseparable from the emperor. It is said that Emperor Liu Sheng was sure to establish King Wei as the crown prince, and the right servant shot a group of interest groups led by Zhao Zhangzhou, but he intended to support the emperor's second son, Liu Xuanxing, King of Qi (later changed to King Gui, who was killed by the queen in the third year of Dabao in history). The king of Qi was just a little more than ten years old, Zhao Zhangzhou and others used the emperor's spring and autumn period as the reason that they were in their prime, first pressured the emperor not to make a prince, and then everyone always praised the king of Qi as the wisest of the princes, and the intention of supporting the king of Qi was very obvious.
Of course, there is also a reason for supporting Liu Xuanxing, the king of Qi, because although the king of Qi is still young, his foreign family is Pan Chongche, the first military general of the Southern Han Dynasty. This Pan Chongche has no one in the prestige of the military of the Southern Han Dynasty, and he has contributed a lot to the fact that the Southern Han Dynasty can be recaptured by the Eighteen Prefectures of Ma Chu, and he is also the famous seventh-ranked sword in the Central Plains.
For the royal battle for power, Wu Yanrou didn't want to participate in it, because of his master Yang Jiong, he didn't care what others thought of him, but for repaying the favor and defending the king, Wu Yanrou felt that he should be himself. Although I heard that since King Wei was injured and went crazy, the emperor never mentioned the matter of King Wei's appointment, but for Yang Jiong, who has followed the emperor for more than ten years, it is not surprising to know the emperor's preferences and thoughts.
Especially Daozun Shi Zhenren's favor for King Wei, so that the emperor's thoughts have been firm, Yang Jiong can see that he will naturally not tell others, but for Wu Yanrou, who has always been treated like a parent, he naturally will not keep what he thinks and thinks. So this time, he personally hinted that Wu Yanrou would do his best to protect King Wei's return to the palace, and even asked him to bring the eight guards of the Wu family who had been instructed by himself, and Wu Yanrou also understood the meaning.
In a trance, Wu Yanrou's keen senses did not stop running for a moment, and her eyes flashed dimly and turned her head to look into the distance. In the distance, I saw a person in a black suit, jumping among the tall trees and bamboos, and in the blink of an eye, he flew towards this side.
Several guards around Wu Yanrou immediately stood in front of the horse, this time to Luofu Mountain to greet King Wei, the emperor promised to promote Wu Yanrou's official position, and when he went back, he could become the commander of the former division of the forbidden army, this is a position that can be appointed outside, and he really entered the ranks of generals, and he can arrange guards and generals around him, these people are his usual own training of close attendants, and the brothers who were good friends in the army in the past. Wu Yanrou waved her hand to signal them to step back, and let the man come forward to salute alone.
"General Yu, the people who were found in ambush by the Tiger Stream ten miles away have been completely annihilated by their subordinates, and we have captured one of them alive!" The man in black only had a pair of eyes out, and he was not only athletic but also exuded an aura that made people feel dangerous, like a hungry black panther, ready to make people feel dangerous at any time.
Wu Yanrou's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "There is still a living mouth?" Wu Er, this matter is not Wu Da's idea. "After many years of following the guards, intelligence spies and his career in the rivers and lakes, as well as the brutal competition between the military today, although Wu Yanrou is only in her twenties now, she has already trained herself to be tough and cold-blooded to the enemy's forces. Especially the news that came back from Luofu Mountain this time, knowing that the recovery of King Wei has made many people uneasy, and the hint of the master made Wu Yanrou dare not have the slightest negligence.
He deeply knows that if he leaves a chance for the enemy, he will create trouble for himself, not to mention that King Wei, as a candidate for the crown prince, there are people who dare to make moves in the open and in secret, which shows that the other party's power is not small. No matter what the motive and purpose is, there can be no trouble, so looking at this Wu Er, Wu Yanrou's gaze became cold. He didn't dare to underestimate the enemy at all, because the other party dared to act under the nose of Daozun, and dared to fight against himself in the name of his master, he was definitely not an ordinary person.
Shi Zhenren is one of the three major earth immortal cultivators recognized in the world today, and a first-class figure of immortals. The people of the world, ordinary people, who dare to provoke, are too late to be respectful. Not to mention his cultivation and fairy demeanor, it is just said that two of the top ten characters on the list of celebrities and strange arts in the rivers and lakes are his disciples and grandchildren. Wu Yanrou didn't think that anyone dared to make a mistake, and sure enough, she waited until she came out of Luofu Mountain, and there was no movement all the way up. It wasn't until they got closer to the Xingwang Mansion that the other party arranged for people to ambush them.
Not to mention the strong momentum of this Shi Zhenren, Wu Yanrou also knows that she can sail the ship carefully, so she has arranged for people to explore the way in advance, even Wu Yanrou's caution ordinary people can't get close. Besides, his master Yang Jiong, as the ninth sick tiger and lion on the celebrity art list, is also a top figure in the world, and the other party dares to do this, either there must be stronger people to support him, or he must be in a hurry to jump off the wall.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Wu Er's eyes even more sharply, Wu Er didn't mean to avoid it or said in a low voice: "General, this matter is decided by the eldest brother, a certain family, and Wu San together!" Wu Yanrou saw that his eyes were clear, and he knew that there was a reason, but it was inconvenient to ask at this time, so he said;" Be careful, and go back to Xingwangfu together, and a certain family wants to see who is so bold. Wu Er answered, turned around and retreated, and immediately disappeared into the distance.
Wu Yanrou looked at the carriage and horse of King Wei not far away, King Wei never came out, and he never signaled anything, Wu Yanrou signaled everyone to continue to move forward and accelerate, but he also held the snake spear made of stainless steel with one hand, and rode the horse slowly approached King Wei's carriage.
Li Yu stood on the side of the long bluestone official road outside the post station, quietly looking at the long queue that was slowly coming in the distance, and the tung oil umbrella supported by the people on the side, so that Wang Yu and Qu Ju could also stand behind Li Yu and not be wet by the drizzle.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites and a few other officials could only stand a little further away from the bluestone pavement. Just got the information that King Wei was close to the post station, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites waited for nearly an hour, and they knew that the team was close, and Li Yu and the three of them came out together. It's not that the three of them deliberately looked like they were behind the scenes, because they knew that it was raining lightly outside, and the officials of the Ministry of Rites knew that the three of them were all Wei Wang's teachers, so they collectively asked the three of them to wait in the post station.
These people are waiting outside, and the set of being officials is that everyone carries a sedan chair. Besides, this time everyone came together to pick up King Wei, everyone is very good and knows very well, if there is no accident, go back to Xingwangfu, King Wei is the prince of the prince. Everyone wants to be familiar, not to mention these teachers who can see and teach Wei Wang every day, everyone naturally has to stutter.
Li Yu understands the thoughts of these people very well, but as the eldest son of Li Yinheng, the founder of the country, he grew up in the scholar clan since he was a child, and this kind of tolerant mentality still exists. He also acquiesced to everyone's compliments, but there have been many years of obscene officialdom, and Li Yu is still a little self-aware, and he will not allow himself to be too public, not to mention that there are also Wang Yu and Qu Ju, the two kings.
I just got the Ministry of Rites waiter Xue Yongpi sent someone back to report urgently, and King Wei and his party were about to arrive at the post house. As the chief official of the court to welcome King Wei this time, although Li Yu did not go to Luofu Mountain, he still had to take the initiative to wait at the last post house here.
Before coming to pick up King Wei yesterday, the emperor sent someone to summon Li Yu into the palace. Li Yu, who claims to have the royal blood of Li Tang, has been educated by the scholar clan since he was a child, although he is only a descendant of a clan family in the early Tang Dynasty, but the most famous of the Li family recently is his great-grandfather, Li Yinheng's grandfather Li Deyu.
This representative figure of the Niu Li Party Struggle in history, his descendants have always regarded themselves as nobles of the Celestial Empire. Even if Li Deyu died in Hainan, in the Xizong Dynasty, Li Yu's grandfather offended the eunuch, and then he was sent to Lingnan, but in the hands of Li Yu's father Li Yinheng, this branch of the Li family is already famous in Lingnan.
Since the founding of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu has ceremoniously courteously courtesy Li Yinheng, and now the Li family has been in Lingnan for decades. And Li Yi himself has been famous as a prodigy since he was a child, and he is even more talented. Li Yinheng died of illness soon after the current emperor ascended the throne, but Li Yu was highly valued by the current emperor, and he was even worshiped as the assassin of the South China Sea and the kings in the first time in Qianhe.
Emperor Liu Sheng's intention was very simple, that is, to tell Li Yu to establish King Wei as the crown prince, and to crown Li Yu as the crown prince and young master, and to enter the Ministry of Rites with the title of Shangshu, and the task was to lead people to welcome King Wei back to the court. Li Yu had mixed feelings but was also worried, he knew everything about the Han Dynasty too well.
Since the current emperor ascended the throne, he has tried every means to kill all his brothers and men close to the royal family. Now the royal family is directly related to the emperor, except for Liu Gong, the grandson of Yong King Liu Yaoshu, the king of Yongshao, and the rest only the emperor has five men.
The reason why this King Yongshao was able to save his life was also because his mother, Mrs. Ya, was known as a virtuous person and was accepted into the palace by the emperor. He was only two years old at the time. But when he was five years old, he suffered a serious illness, and accidentally became mute, as for the reason, no one dared to squeak, and when he was ten years old, he was sent to the fiefdom of Shaozhou to work. But he also had to be taken care of by the emperor's trusted generals and Shaozhou Jiedu envoys, and everyone understood that it was actually house arrest in disguise.
And the emperor's five sons are the eldest of King Wei, who is not yet fifteen years old this year. Liu Baoxing, the king of Nazhen (originally known as the king of details), is only more than ten years old this year, and his performance has been mediocre since he was a child, and he is not favored; The rest of the second son, Liu Xuanxing, the king of Qi, was only a little more than half a year older than King Zhen; Liu Qingxing, the king of Jing, was only seven or eight years old; The youngest plum king, Liu Chongxing, is only more than three years old this year.
Li Yu knew that the reason why the emperor was in a hurry to establish the crown prince was that the life expectancy of the royal descendants of the Liu family in recent decades was extremely low, and secondly, the emperor had been in poor health years ago. Li Yu is convinced that the emperor is so determined to defend the king, and he has also doted on this son since he was a child, and the most important thing is that he has a lot to do with Daozun Shi Zhenren.
It is said that the emperor could kill the emperor and ascend the throne, which was the acquiescence of the Supreme of the Aisle Gate, at that time Li Yu was still in Xianning, South China Sea, as a county magistrate, and had no opportunity or ability to participate, but his father Li Yinheng was still there at the time, he vaguely knew the reason for some things, but he didn't fully understand and wouldn't ask others. But he understands a truth, if he wants to sit on that throne, he can't do it without the respect of the Daomen. Therefore, Daomen Supreme Shi Zhenren's attack on King Wei, Li Yu completely thought that it was undoubtedly a hint.
