Chapter 353: The Emperor is as cheap as grass
was assassinated again, which made Yang Yi furious, and once again led people to rush into the palace, almost slashing Emperor Horiko with a knife.
In the end, Lingzi and Zhenzi came out to intercede for their brother, and Yang Yinian was in danger, and they sacrificed themselves to block the assassin's affection, and finally spared Emperor Horikawa's life, but they still forced him to cede Sado Island, so he went angrily.
Considering the safety of Qing Niang, Yang Yi simply left Heianjing this time, returned to Kakukako with his men and horses, and overtook Tsuruga Castle near Kakuroko Port; Even most of Murong Zhi's troops were withdrawn, leaving only some people to supervise the actions of Taira Masamori and Mutsu, Echigo, and other countries.
Tsuruga City is not big, and under the martial law of Yang Yi's nearly 1,000 men and horses, it is difficult for birds to cross, so safety is not a problem.
Yang Yi is a hungry ghost, in addition to asking Ping Zhengsheng for gold and silver treasures, he doesn't ask him about anything in Tsuruga City, he indulges in fun every day, wakes up and dreams of death, and the two or three hundred beauties are not enough, and he still keeps asking Ping Zhengsheng for fresh goods.
But no matter what, from Emperor Horikawa to the ordinary people in Heiankyo, all of them celebrated, and this big devil finally left!
Although I only went to Tsuruga Castle, it was better than a pestle in the Imperial Castle, like a steel knife on my neck.
As the so-called happiness and sorrow, Yang Yi left Heianjing less than ten days, a month of dark and windy night, the left guard of the Bingwei Mansion Matsui Hachiro led his troops to rebel, killing a large number of direct members of the imperial family and high-ranking officials in the court, the entire Heianjing was in chaos, the flames were everywhere, and the killing shook the sky; The Guard Mansion was originally responsible for the security of the Imperial Palace, and it was Matsui Hachiro who was on duty at the Imperial Palace that night, and he controlled Emperor Horikawa for the first time.
Junichi Abe, the vice minister of the Imperial Guard, led his troops to arrive and engaged in a fierce battle with the rebels in the imperial city, and by dawn, the rebels were defeated and defeated, and the leader of the rebels, Hachiro Matsui, was killed by random arrows.
After Abe's victory, he searched for Emperor Horikawa's whereabouts, only to find that he had died in the chaos.
Emperor Horikawa died, and all the members of the imperial family were basically dead, and Heiankyo fell into a state of ownerlessness for a while, which made it even more chaotic.
And the shock of this incident to the whole of Japan was unprecedentedly strong, even more than the shock caused by the invasion of the lord of Yang Dadao.
Although the invasion of the Lord of the Birds coerced the emperor, after all, the emperor was still there, and Japan was still in a unified situation in general.
Now that the emperor is gone, and the members of the imperial family are almost dead, who will be the emperor? Who will represent Japan?
Soon someone jumped out, and Taira Masamori of Kanto was the first to stand up and claim that he was a descendant of the Empress, and now that there is no one in the Horikawa family, he should inherit the throne of the emperor.
In this way, Taira Masamori established himself as the new emperor in the Kanto region.
It is true that the Hei family is descended from the Empress of Heaven, but the Taira family has been given a surname, which is equivalent to being stripped of the imperial family, and it has been separated for hundreds of years, so few daimyo in various places recognize him as the new emperor.
Soon after Heimasamori became emperor, the daimyo of Mutsu, Echigo, Ueno, and Shimono stood up and issued a strongly worded statement that they would never recognize Taira Masamori as emperor, and at the same time pointed the finger at the Heike family, believing that the Heike had planned the rebellion.
Just when the daimyo from all over the world were targeting the Heike family, Junichi Abe, who was currently actually in control of the Heiankyo samurai group, also stood up and claimed that he had the edict of Emperor Horikawa, who passed the throne to him before his death, and gave him the name Yuki Hatoyama.
As a result, Yuki Hatoyama also proclaimed himself emperor in Heiankyo, and called on the daimyo from all over the country to unite to crusade against Heimasamori, who claimed to be emperor without permission.
This time it was even more chaotic, although Hatoyama Yuki's name was also changed, and the rebellion in Heiankyo was indeed quelled by him, and he also took out the so-called emperor's edict, but the ghost believed in that edict.
He controls the Imperial Palace, and now that the Emperor is dead, is it not easy for him to come up with a testament?
The daimyo in various places also did not recognize Hatoyama Yuki as the "emperor", but this "emperor" is not legitimate, and that "emperor" is not legitimate. You do yours, I do mine.
There are not a few people who hold this kind of thought, who in this world doesn't want to have an emperor addiction?
Although Michinoku daimyo Mitsumi Mitsumi, Echigo daimyo Takuya Uesugi and Ueno daimyo Hita Kiji also wanted to be emperor, they did not do so immediately, but sent envoys one after another to bring beauties and treasures to the lord of Yang Oshima, hoping to get his support.
The lord of Yang Dadao accepted the treasure as he wanted, and the beauty took it, but he gave a sentence lightly: The owner of the island said that he would no longer interfere in Japan's internal affairs, and he must keep his promise, and it doesn't matter which of you is the emperor of the island, as long as the previous treaty is fulfilled.
Of course, when receiving different envoys, he would give some ambiguous words, so that every messenger who came to ask for an audience left excitedly.
Soon, Mitsunoku Mitsumi, Uesugi Takuya, Hita Kiji and others also proclaimed themselves emperors, and for a time, Japan, a small country, actually had seven or eight emperors, just like the grass growing in spring, everywhere.
Naturally, the guardian palace of Tsuruga Castle cannot be compared to the prime minister's office of the Fujiwara family, but it is barely able to live there.
The houses and pavilions in the courtyard are also built in a similar way, other Yang Yi doesn't care, but he is sorry for missing a hot spring, this cold day, soaking in the hot spring is a beautiful thing in the world, it's a pity!
Yang Yi hugged Qing Niang to enjoy the snow in the grass pavilion, the plum blossoms on the side of the wall were bent by the snow, but the red buds were not afraid of the cold, emerging from the snow-covered branches, blooming in the wind.
In a white world, the delicate red shadow is so moving, no wonder countless throughout the ages have been sincerely admired for plum blossoms.
When Yang Yi was interested, he hummed softly:
True feelings are like plum blossoms, cold ice and snow can not be submerged, blooming on the coldest branches, seeing spring towards you and me, snowflakes fluttering north wind howling, heaven and earth are vast, a cut of cold plums stand proudly in the ground, only for the fragrance of Yiren.
Love what I love, no regrets, this love is always in my heart.
Qing Niang leaned on his arms, looking at the red plum on the branch with a pair of crescent-like eyes, quietly listening to his humming, no matter whether it sounded good or not, anyway, it was her eldest brother Yang who sang it.
The wind blows and the snow falls, the singing does not disperse, perhaps, I like a person, even if it is his most casual humming, it is so moving.
Qing Niang couldn't help but pull out the soft pancreas that he was holding in the palm of her hand, and instead held him, like holding the whole world.
As sung in the song, love what I love, no regrets...... "Brother Yang, when will we go back." Qing Niang raised a pink face and asked softly.
"It's almost there, is Qingniang homesick?" Yang Yi raised his hand to press down her little head, and then covered it with the fluffy collar, leaving only her curved eyebrows exposed.
Qing Niang was a little dissatisfied, probably pouting, and her little nose wrinkled, which made her even more cute.
"Brother Yang, people are not cold." Because her mouth was covered, she spoke in an urn that made Yang Yi want to laugh when she heard it.
"That's what kids usually say."
"Ah, it's all said, it's sixteen!"
"Is sixteen big? I'm over a thousand years old. ”
"Humph!" Qing Niang rolled her eyes to express her dissatisfaction, "By the way, I don't know how Sister Bi'er is now, but she gave birth to Lin'er, and people really want to go back and see it." ”
"Qing Niang, don't worry, there is an old imperial doctor in our pharmacy, and Thirteen Niang will take good care of them."
"But Brother Yang, aren't you worried at all?"
"Don't worry, I have confidence in Bi'er."
"I don't believe you, Brother Yang, you must be very worried, right?"
Speaking of this, Yang Yi suddenly remembered that in the original history, Qing Niang had no children in her life. He couldn't help but hold Qing Niang's pulse and take the pulse carefully.
Qing Niang was a little stunned, and asked puzzledly: "Brother Yang, people are so good, what are you doing?" ”
He couldn't see anything wrong with Qingniang's body from the pulse, but infertility was difficult to see from the pulse, and he knew this.
I think it should be Zhao Mingcheng's body problem. Yang Yi could only comfort himself like this.
As the saying goes, there are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is greater. Yang Yi, as a descendant, does not care whether Qing Niang can have children, but if she can't have children as a woman in these years, she will have to bear huge pressure.
"It's okay, we've been blowing the wind here for a long time, I'm afraid you'll feel the cold, okay, let's go back quickly, we can't blow the wind anymore, look at your face is freezing red."
"Where's the frozen red? It's covered red by you. Qing Niang didn't doubt it, and retorted to Yang Yi playfully, but she still obediently followed him back to the room.
The two sisters, Lingzi and Zhenzi, had obviously been waiting for him for a long time, and their faces were a little bruised from the cold when they stood under the eaves.
After Yang Yi beckoned them into the house, the two of them immediately knelt down and said with a soft sob: "Master, our sisters beg you, help us, our sisters are willing to repay your kindness for the rest of their lives, and they will be cattle and horses to repay your kindness, please ......."
Although the meaning of the two was not very clear, Yang Yi understood that they must have heard the news from Heianjing, Yang Yi did not deliberately block the news, although they stayed at home, they knew that it would be sooner or later.
"Get up and speak."
The sisters did not get up, but still lay on the ground and pleaded.
Yang Yi looked at them and said indifferently: "At the beginning, I signed a treaty with Emperor Horikawa that I must no longer interfere in Japan's internal affairs, and you have also seen that if others don't come to mess with me, I will never cause trouble." What's more, you should have heard that the emperor's family, except for you two sisters, were all killed by the rebels, and I just want to help you, but I can't help you? ”
"Master, our sisters beg the master to help us save the Japanese people......"
The sisters refused to get up, and kept begging, if it was before, they would not and did not dare to come to Yang Yi no matter what.
But Yang Yi treats them very well these days, often invites them to dine and chat together, and always speaks gently, like a family, the sisters dare to come to ask for each other.
"You are my woman, you can think about it, but to save the Japanese people, how can you let me save it? How did you save so much? And no matter who rules, the people are still the people, and no one needs to save them. ”
The Lingzi sisters didn't know what to say, they only bowed their heads and cried.
Qing Niang couldn't stand it, turned her head to Yang Yi and said, "Brother Yang, Lingzi and they are so pitiful, you can help them!" ”
Yang Yi said embarrassedly: "Qing Niang, it's not that the eldest brother is hard-hearted, I really promised not to interfere in Japan's internal affairs again, how can I go back on my word?" ”
Hearing that Qing Niang also came out to help them intercede, the Lingzi sisters couldn't help but raise their heads hopefully, everyone knew that Yang Yi had everything to do with Qing Niang, and they couldn't bear to refuse, they couldn't help but kowtow to Qing Niang and beg again.
Qingniang was kind-hearted and hurriedly went up to help them.
"Brother Yang, Lingzi and their children are too pitiful, you can help them! At the beginning, you promised Emperor Horikawa that he would no longer interfere in Japan's internal affairs, but now that Emperor Horikawa has been killed, you should be helping Emperor Horikawa redress his grievances! Qing Niang begged again.
Yang Yi couldn't resist Qing Niang, and finally relented, and said to Sister Lingzi: "It's okay to help you, but I have a few conditions, you have to agree first." ”
