Chapter 19 Chapter 15: The Absi people who read "Gui Guzi"——Cheng De and Rebellion

In February of the first year of Changqing, prime ministers Xiao Yu and Duan Wenchang jointly presented the so-called peace policy to the emperor Li You (Tang Muzong).They "asked for a secret order to have military offices in the world's military towns, and limit eight people to escape to death out of a hundred people every year."In other words, Chang'an wants the feudal towns in the world to reduce their troops at a rate of 8% per year, and finally achieve the goal of weakening the feudal towns. Viewed in isolation, there is nothing wrong with Changqing's sale of troops.

In the Yuanhe era when tens of thousands of horses were galloping, the heroes of the separatist regime knelt down in front of Chang'an's iron horse Changlance.However, amidst the clatter of horseshoes, the countless gold, silver, and silk stored in Chang'an's treasury were also consumed like flowing water.Chang'an, which has run out of government possessions, must gradually free itself from the predicament of sharply increasing military expenditures in a calm and cost-free method.At this time, the imperial court threatened the power of Thunder, which had won many battles, and launched a political plan to fundamentally weaken the large and small towns.

Unexpectedly, it was this peace policy that ruined all the efforts of the past fifteen years. Changqing's sale of troops was carried out as an isolated measure.Where did the soldiers who were forcibly dismissed go?How do warriors who don't know crops live?How sure is Chang'an of reconciling the conflicting emotions from Jiedu envoys, soldiers and horse envoys to soldiers?Who will intimidate the arrogant Yajun... There are many problems, and they are tied up one after another.What is missing is precisely the hands of combing.Perhaps, Li You Junchen was ignorant and didn't realize how difficult things were at all.

The comments in "Old Tang Book" are very interesting: "Li Youbenji" criticizes Xiao Chu and others for "disregarding the long-term plan", while "Xiao Zu Zhuan" believes that "the emperor is wild and indulgent, and cannot be deeply expected" is the key to bad things—as if It's like the masters are trying to blame each other. It should be said that there is no big fallacy in either statement.The emperor is as shallow as the ministers, and they are very weak and naive politically.They are all bookish and content to demonstrate the abstract rationality of a plan, completely ignoring operational issues.The soldiers who were forcibly dismissed did not disarm and return to the fields as they had taken for granted, but turned around and fled into the wild mountains and forests, where they fell into bandits.The life of licking blood is what they are familiar with and obsessed with.The life that the imperial court cannot provide them, the rivers and lakes can.

The rivers and lakes are the natural opposite of the imperial court, and they are also a natural complement. The hundreds of thousands of Heshuo soldiers who have not been dismissed are also half-clear and half-dark.The domineering Changqing sales of soldiers cast a heavy shadow in their hearts.These athletes regard the military as a shelter and a place for development.But the fate of being abolished does not know when it will fall on him.The warrior who was used to gaining food, clothing and fame with a knife and a gun suddenly found that he was submissive to Chang'an, and did not get any benefits, but was ruthlessly pushed into an uncertain situation.

They are restless, they are restless.Before the rebellion happened, the soldiers who controlled the fate of Heshuo had already separated from Chang'an——Changqing's disbandment became a complete failure. As early as the 14th year of Yuanhe, Wu Chongyin, the envoy of Henghai Jiedu, once played to the court.He believes that the Heshuo Fanzhen has been separated for more than 60 years because they have deprived the subordinate states and counties of the power of the governors and county magistrates.If the power of governors of various states can be respected, Chang'an needn't fear the reincarnation of heroes and the rebirth of devils.Even if traitors like An Lushan and Shi Siming appear, they cannot just rely on one state and brazenly rebel.Therefore, Wu Chongyin returned the military power of the three states of De, Di, and Jing under his jurisdiction to the governor.Due to Wu Chongyin's proper disposal, only Henghai was the quietest among the Hebei feudal towns.

Wu Chongyin's approach has already proposed a good idea for the reduction of feudal clans, that is, follow the example of the reduction of feudal clans in the Western Han Dynasty, and proceed step by step.In this way, no matter how good a hero you are, you can't rely on the power of one state and one county to fight against a hundred thousand magical troops.The emperor of Chang'an will once again "bring all the people in the pass to come to the four directions".With this attitude of putting more emphasis on controlling the light and overlooking the world from a bird's eye view, Chang'an's will will be hard to violate.Li Chun (Tang Xianzong) once issued an edict to implement Wu Chongyin's practice.It's a pity that Yuanhe Gongchang is imminent.When the spring of fifteen years passed, Li Chun's "strategy of dividing troops" was quickly replaced by Li You's "strategy of selling troops".

In the final analysis, whether the "strategy of dividing troops" or "the strategy of selling troops" is only the first step.No matter from the perspective of economic foundation, power structure, or cultural mentality, the three towns in Hebei have been transformed.Chang'an not only wants to re-extend the hand of power into Heshuo, but also bridges the gap between a Huhua Hebei and the world, and rebuilds a unified society.The wide-ranging campaign during the Yuanhe period was just a prelude.Li Chun has not had time to start the more difficult follow-up steps.But Li You and his chancellors mistakenly thought that they were just finishing off.So they tend to keep things simple—

This is the most fundamental of a series of mistakes.Therefore, it won't be the last. Another shocking news came from Hebei: Chengde Jiedu envoy Wang Chengzong died. For a while, the monarchs and ministers in Chang'an were both happy and worried, with mixed feelings.After nearly ten years of fighting with the dragon and tiger in Chang'an, Wang Chengzong had to lower his proud head a few years ago.But this person has always been Chang'an's confidant.Now, the god of death has taken away Li You's hidden worries.The joy of the young emperor blossomed: it was time to send a trustworthy figure to succeed Chengde.But will the arrogant soldiers under Wang Chengzong accept the Jiedu envoy he appointed?The news in Zhenzhou made Chang'an's monarchs secretly worried.

"It's all over to send away the mourning." Wang Chengzong, who was extremely arrogant in the past, was lying quietly in the coffin.Outside the coffin, there is a turbulent undercurrent in the peaceful Zhenzhou.The generals who knew the inside story did not hold a public funeral, and carefully concealed the news of Jiedushi's death. They gathered in front of Wang Chengzong's spirit to discuss the future of the feudal town.Deep down, they hoped to maintain the hereditary practice of Hebei Jiedushi.But Wang Chengzong's two sons have been sent to Chang'an as hostages.At this time, they thought of Wang Chengyuan, Wang Chengzong's younger brother.

When the twenty-year-old Wang Chengyuan was surrounded by the generals in the Jiedu Hall, looking at the black crowd in front of him, a look of panic appeared on his immature face.He struggled like a frightened baby swallow, trying to hide his frail body.But a pair of strong hands pinched the young man and pushed him to the center step by step.The terrified Wang Chengyuan burst into tears, and refused to accept the kneeling of the soldiers.Beneath his frail appearance, he has a stubborn heart.This is something the arrogant soldiers don't know.For a moment, the atmosphere in the Jiedu Hall was strangely cold.Wang Chengyuan also smelled a hint of danger, and he was quick to get wise, and threw out a sentence: The emperor sent an eunuch here to supervise the army; if there is any major matter, he should discuss it with him. Poor, the eunuch who oversees the army has long been frightened by the menacing battle in the hall, and stepped forward tremblingly to persuade Wang Chengyuan to take over the military power.Amidst the cheers and drums, the young man reluctantly took the handsome position. After leaving the hall, Wang Chengyuan quietly called a confidant family boy to him and whispered a few words.Xiaojiatong nodded understandingly, took a scroll from the master, stuffed it into his clothes, and hurried out.Who would have noticed that Wang Chengyuan was missing a family boy?Riding a fast horse, he has sneaked out of Zhenzhou, and galloped on the road to the west. A few days later, Chang'an received Wang Chengyuan's request to appoint another Jiedu envoy.On the issue of separatism, the young man showed an opinion that was not commensurate with his age. Chang'an issued a decree: adjust Weibo Jiedu Tian Hongzheng to serve as Chengde Jiedu envoy, Chengde Jiedu envoy Wang Chengyuan appointed Yicheng Jiedu envoy, Yicheng Jiedu envoy Liu Wu appointed Zhaoyi Jiedu envoy, Wuning Jiedu envoy Li Yan appointed Weibo Jiedu envoy, and Tian Hongzheng's son Tian Bu served as Heyang Jiedu envoy.It was the first time after Yuanhe three years that Jiedushi was mobilized on such a large scale at one time.This is enough to prove that until this time, Chang'an still enjoyed great authority. This is of course the result of Yuan and ZTE.Changing horses and generals cut off the close connection between Jiedushi and the army of the feudal town, preventing them from supporting themselves and occupying one side.Li You wanted to use this to consolidate Yuanhe ZTE's vested achievements.It is a pity that Yi Zhen, the commander-in-chief of the Fan, backfired this time and became the final review of the achievements of Yuanhe Zhongxing. Like Changqing's sales of troops, it was a good move in its original intention, but it was extremely stupid in actual operation. We will once again see the ignorance of Chang'an. With a decree, General Zuo Jinwu Yang Yuanqing's memorial was placed on Li You's imperial case. There is a kind of character who sings long songs and cries, and comes to play games in the world of mortals, just to witness how an era has come to an end.Yang Yuanqing is such a person.As a teenager, the lonely and helpless life did not change his generous nature.In the year of weak crown, Yang Yuanqing admired the style of the martyrs of the Warring States period, traveled the world grandly, and drifted on the surface of the rivers and mountains.Later, Yijie in white came to Caizhou again.The world regards Yang Yuanqing as a top-notch figure.Wu Shaocheng, who ruled Huaixi separately, appreciated his talent and tried his best to keep him.Yang Yuanqing stopped wandering and became the guest of Wu Shaocheng and Wu Shaoyang. Li Jifu, the prime minister at the time, knew people well, and he also saw that Yang Yuanqing, who lived in the feudal town, was not an ordinary person. He had tried his best to win him over, hoping that he could persuade Wu to give up his intention of separatist Huaixi.The unruly Yang Yuanqing has repeatedly stated that Huaixi should return to Chang'an.In Caizhou City, those who advocated separatism hated him to the bone.Fortunately, Jiedu judge Su Zhao has been protecting him in the dark.Otherwise, Yang Yuanqing would have died long ago without a place to bury him. But Su Zhao failed to protect him after all.After Wu Shaoyang's death, Wu Yuanji, who took over, was determined to fight against the imperial court, and finally laid a poisonous hand on Yang Yuanqing.Yang Yuanqing lost his beloved wife and four sons overnight.Their dripping blood was used by Wu Yuanji to paint the arrow targets.Su Zhao was also killed on the same day.Only Yang Yuanqing escaped by chance and came to Chang'an sadly. In the thirteenth year of Yuanhe, the army to attack Wu Yuanji gathered in Huaixi.Yang Yuanqing was appointed governor of Caizhou.Li Chun asked him to set up an governor's office in Tangzhou, which is adjacent to Caizhou, to accommodate the soldiers and civilians of Caizhou who had surrendered.The tragedy of withered flesh and blood did not transform Yang Yuanqing's wild temperament.He pointed out Jiangshan and offered advice many times, but he attracted the cold eyes of others.On the eve of Li Min's blizzard at Caizhou City, Yang Yuanqing received Chang'an's decree and appointed General Zuo Jinwuwei instead.Just like that, he pretended to return to the west, and passed by Caizhou who brought him endless pain.This kind of character with the legacy of ancient martyrs is incompatible with the officialdom in Chang'an.This determines that Yang Yuanqing will not be very proud of his official career, and has been serving as this nominal general in Chang'an. After hearing that the imperial court ordered Tian Hongzheng to be Chengde Jiedu envoy, this untimely embarrassing person jumped up and went straight to Zhongshu Sheng.Perhaps, in the eyes of the prime ministers, Weibo and Chengde are both three towns in Hebei, with similar customs and adjacent regions.Tian Hongzheng changed from Wei Bo Jiedu envoy to Chengde Jiedu envoy, which is suitable for people and places.But Yang Yuanqing still confronted the prime ministers about his interests and implored them to change this stupid decision.Yang Yuanqing wants to tell them: In Hebei, Tian Hongzheng is a very different person. Counting it, Tian Hongzheng and Tian Chengsi, the former Wei Bo Jiedu envoy, belonged to the same clan.But their branch is completely different from the domineering and lawless descendants of Tian Chengsi. Tian Hongzheng's father, Tian Tingjie, was elegant in nature and did not join the army like Tian Chengsi.He has successively served as magistrate of four counties, and he is praised everywhere he goes.The three feudal towns of Pinglu, Chengde and Lulong attacked Cangzhou year after year.Tian Tingjie, who moved to the governor of Cangzhou, guarded the dangerous city alone under the condition that his soldiers were exhausted and his mountains and rivers were exhausted.Inspired by him, none of the Cangzhou soldiers betrayed.The isolated city stood still under the stormy attack.When Tian Chengsi rebelled, the court trusted Tian Tingyu as before, and did not cut his official position because he was of the same clan as Tian Chengsi. Tian Hongzheng, whose real name is Tian Xing, is the second son of Tian Tingjie.Under the upbringing of his eldest brother Tian Rong, Tian Xingzan sucked a pen, bent a bow and fencing, and was proficient in everything.Riding and archery is even better.No one is his opponent when the army shoots corners.But Tian Rong said to him: If you don't know how to hide your strength and bide your time, you may be in disaster.At that time, Wei Bo Jiedushi was Tian Ji'an, the grandson of Tian Chengsi, who was abusive.For Tian Xing, who had admonished him several times, Tian Ji'an was already murderous.If it wasn't for moxibustion burning all over his body and falsely calling him Fengbi, Tian Xing would not have survived that hellish dark time. After Tian Ji'an went crazy, Ya Jun pushed Tian Xing to the commander-in-chief.The emperor gave him a new name "Tian Hongzheng".Tian Hongzheng's service broke the situation where the three towns of Heshuo were supporting each other and fighting against the imperial court.Chang'an's passive strategy in Hebei was reversed in one fell swoop.Without Tian Hongzheng, Li Chun would have nothing to do in Hebei.The powerful Wei Bo surrendered to Chang'an, putting great pressure on the domineering Lu Long and Cheng De.When the imperial court conquered Huaixi, Chengde and Pinglu, Tian Hongzheng and his son Tian Bu led troops to help in the battle and made many military exploits. Tian Hongzheng, who was extremely brave on the battlefield, was familiar with "Spring and Autumn Zuo Shi", and often discussed historical events with Liaozuo.Menke once recorded these conversations in the book "Historical Cases of Yi Gong".He also built a library with more than ten thousand volumes.It can be seen that although Tian Hongzheng was born in Hebei, he has the same cultivation as the ministers of Chang'an.His values ​​are the values ​​carefully grafted by Chang'an, which are incompatible with the whole of Hebei. What's more deadly is that Tian Hongzheng met the Chengde army in the Yuanhe period, and forged an indissoluble hatred.In the battle of Nangong in the eleventh year of Yuanhe alone, more than 2,000 Chengde troops died in his hands.Only four years later, the imperial court sent Tian Hongzheng to command Chengde's army. Yang Yuanqing felt that such absurd approach was simply unreasonable. Seeing that the prime ministers ignored it, Yang Yuanqing had no choice but to write to the emperor. But everything is in vain.When the flowers fall and the birds are scattered, the emperor is still intoxicated in the arms of the beauty; while the ministers are fighting for life and death for the snail's head.Who has the time to listen to a powerless person? My eyes stopped for a long time on this line of history.It seems that there is no need to browse down, anyone can guess everything that is about to happen.I can't figure out why there are so many mistakes in a short period of history.I was so wrong that I didn't have a clue, I didn't have a clue, and I was in a daze of "God's will".This confusion is not purely due to God's will.In addition to three points of God's will, there are also seven points of personnel.God's will, we don't want to talk nonsense, but we might as well talk a few more words about the seven-point personnel. When the news of the transfer of the commander-in-chief reached Zhenzhou, there was an uproar. The disappointed soldiers of the Chengde Army clapped their fists and slapped their sleeves, and gathered in front of the Jiedu Hall, making a lot of noise, shouting to resist the imperial court's will.The voice of Wang Chengyuan reading the imperial edict was interrupted by howls from time to time.The scene is almost out of control.But the seemingly immature Wang Chengyuan didn't waver at all.Amid the noise, he thought of a dead person—Li Shidao, the former military governor of Pinglu. The same young; the same good clothes and good food, ignorant of political affairs; unlike the hero's father and grandfather, who forged their souls in the bloody wind of the battlefield.Li Shidao also took over the military power from his deceased brother.But he simply didn't have the ability to control the group of wolves and tigers under his command.Emperor Chang'an once pardoned Li Shidao's crimes.If he entered the court right away, there would be no future tragedies.The officers and men of Pinglu discouraged Li Shidao from submitting to the court; but in the end, they put the three heads of their father and son into wooden letters and sent them to Chang'an, weren't they the same generals?Wang Chengyuan, who was immersed in the memories, couldn't help shivering. This young man knows how one family after another is lost with the wind.He didn't want to rewrite a family history that ended in ruin. Those soldiers who kept clamoring did not notice that a trace of murderous intent flashed across that handsome face.Soon, the loudest tooth hung the bloody heads of Li Ji and a dozen others outside the gate, deterring the generals of Chengde.Like Lu Long's Mr. Liu, Wang Chengyuan had to kill several subordinates who prevented him from leaving, so as to make an example of others, before he was able to escape. When Wang Chengyuan went to Huazhou to take over Yicheng Jiedushi, Tian Hongzheng walked into Zhenzhou City. If Zhang Hongjing saw the disturbing light in the eyes of the people from Youzhou on his shoulder, what Tian Hongzheng on Qingcong saw was the undisguised flame of hatred.In Chengde's army, brothers were in the same battalion and connected by marriage clan, and the soldiers were either relatives or township parties, and the relationship was intricate.A few years ago, the two thousand souls who died in Nangong seemed to be floating in Zhenzhou City.The son who lost his father, the father who lost his son, the brother who lost his brother, and the friend who lost his friend, stood with the ghosts and cursed Tian Hongzheng, the purple-clothed goldfish in front of him. Behind Tian Hongzheng, followed by the two thousand soldiers he brought from Wei Bo.Zhang Hongjing can use a closed door to separate himself from Youzhou, but Tian Hongzheng relies on them to give him a sense of security.But, who will pay for these two thousand soldiers?They stationed in Zhenzhou, there is no reason for Wei Bo to support them.But Chengde didn't have their establishment, so he couldn't spend this military expenditure.In desperation, Tian Hongzheng had no choice but to write to the court. Unexpectedly, Cui Lai, the servant of the household department, flatly refused to provide for the two thousand soldiers.In his view, Tian Hongzheng went to Zhenzhou to serve as Jiedu envoy, and Chengde soldiers would naturally protect the commander-in-chief of the army.Tian Hongzheng's worry seems to be an exaggeration.In the past few years, Wei Bo and Cheng De's ambiguous grievances and grievances, as well as the danger Tian Hongzheng is facing now, have been so carelessly ignored by him.Like his colleagues, Cui Lai insisted on a practice that was not wrong in terms of administrative principles, but was far from reality—this kind of clumsy mistake bears the obvious characteristics of the politics of the Changqing Dynasty. Tian Hongzheng submitted four memorials in a row, but they all fell into the sea.When he stood on the lonely city and watched the two thousand soldiers go away, the loneliness of being abandoned must have flooded over like a tide.Annihilation of the female wall, annihilation of battlements, annihilation of Zhenzhou Baichiqiao Tower, and finally annihilation of himself. Soon, Tian Hongzheng was killed.At the same time as him, there were more than 300 staff members and family members. Facing the Grim Reaper dancing in the flickering knife light, Tian Hongzheng will recall the scene of his night talk with Pei Du when he had a night talk with Pei Du.He had listened tirelessly to Pei Du's teachings and taught him how to be loyal to the court.He will also think of that period of eventful years.He took his son Tian Bu through the bloody wind, fighting to reproduce the dream of the prosperous Tang Dynasty... When Tian Hongzheng was finally abandoned by the heartless court among the wolves and tigers, he stood for his loyalty. And regret it? I believe that Tian Hongzheng's death had its unique influence on the final disintegration of the Tang Dynasty.After Tian Hongzheng, what other feudal envoys would be willing to devote allegiance to the imperial court?Whether it is Heshuo or other places, there is always a voice in my heart constantly reminding them.It was Tian Hongzheng's wailing before his death, the voice of a man who abided by his duty as a minister - Gao Pian had heard it before, and Wang Duo had heard it too.Decades later, when the precarious court once again cast begging eyes, they turned their backs indifferently. The culprit who killed Tian Hongzheng was named Wang Tingcou, an Absi native.However, as early as their ancestors, their family moved to the Zhenzhou area.Wang Tingcou was born in a villa in Shiyi, only thirty miles away from Mount Heng.Legend has it that after he was born, dozens of doves always gathered at the big tree in the courtyard in the early morning, and perched under the eaves at night, staying together for a long time. I don't know if the inspiration for this legend came from an adventure of Han Gaozu Liu Bang.When Chu and Han were fighting, Liu Bang was beaten to the ground and fled in a hurry.Xiang Yu led his iron cavalry to follow behind, pursuing him relentlessly.Seeing that there was no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth, Liu Bang had no choice but to ride his horse into the forest and hide in the wild grass.In a blink of an eye, Xiang Yu's Wuzi also followed.When the horse arrived at the forest bank, Liu Bang was nowhere to be seen.While hesitating, Xiang Yu suddenly heard three or five groups of doves perched on the treetops, singing in a low voice, without any sign of being disturbed.He thought that there should be no one in the dense forest and long grass, so he turned his horse's head and chased forward... From then on, Liu Bang regarded the dove and bird as a symbol of auspiciousness. .This is the so-called "dove stick". We vaguely remember that the blue bird buzzing on the high wall once heralded that Li Zhengji would take over the military power in Pinglu and start the history of the development of the Li family in Goguryeo.Could it be that the blue and black dove will also bring the royal court a rich and noble life? However, the characters "Jiu" and "Zhen" are similar in shape, and ancient books are often confused.Because of this, people also call these two confusing birds "Jiuzhen", which refers to villains who frame innocent people. Perhaps, the perched on the trees of the Shiyi villa is not the cute bird that Zhu Xi wrote that got drunk after eating too many mulberries, but the most terrifying poisonous bird in the legend.Legend has it that it builds its nest on the poisonous chestnut tree and likes to eat vipers and poisonous kudzu. The bird droppings fall on the ground and crack the rocks; I imagined that countless black-bodied and naked venomous birds flitted across the cloudy sky and gathered from all directions to Shiyi Villa.The air is filled with the noise of their ravens.The female venom is called "Yin Harmony", and its chirping will bring continuous rain; the male venom is called "Lucky Day", and its long cry heralds the raging drought.Both male and female, the call opened the curtain of death.Without disasters, this kind of messenger of death who kills people and kills ghosts will not show up.Today, the poisonous birds all over the villas in Shiyi will witness the birth of a vicious person. The baby who fell to the ground really surprised everyone.He was born with "parallel ribs" out of phase.According to the textual research of Kong Yingda, a great scholar in the early Tang Dynasty, "parallel ribs" means that the ribs are connected like one piece. "Zuo Zhuan" records: Jin Gongzi Chong'er was born with parallel ribs.On the way to exile, he came to Cao State from Wei State.Cao Gonggong actually peeped at him while he was bathing, but was discovered.Many years later, Chong'er has become Duke Wen of Jin, one of the Five Hegemons in the Spring and Autumn Period.He held a grudge against Cao Gonggong's rudeness back then, and launched an army to attack Cao.The former voyeur became his prisoner. Later, people learned that there was a treacherous heart beating under Wang Ting's side.In Chengde's army, he was quickly promoted to Yajiang by virtue of his cunning and viciousness.Wang Wujun, the grandfather of Wang Chengyuan's brother, admired this barbarian very much and adopted him as his adopted son.In addition to dancing guns and sticks, Wang Tingcou likes to study the most. This is a wonderful book left by Wang Xu, a strange man in the Warring States Period.Because he lived in seclusion in Guigu of Qingxi for a long time, he called himself Mr. Guigu, and he was the originator of the strategists.Legend has it that Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Sun Bin, and Pang Juan are all disciples of Mr. Guigu.Under the trend of ousting all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone, the tactics advocated by the strategists are quite different from the benevolence, righteousness and morality of Confucianism.A book is neglected, and few people study it.Unexpectedly, an Albus person could not put it down.I think Wang Tingcou must have learned a lot from it. In February of the first year of Changqing, Wang Tingcouu was sent to Heyang on business, and passed through Yushui on the way back.Before going on the road, the group drank a lot of fine wine.As soon as the spring breeze blew up, everyone was a little drunk, so they rested on the side of the road for a while, and soon fell asleep.At this time, a mountain man walked by them with a bamboo chip for counting on his back.As if attracted by something, he stopped, leaned down, looked carefully at Wang Tingcou who was soundly asleep, and murmured: This man has a dignified face, not an ordinary person! Just at this time, a follower woke up leisurely, just in time to hear the mountain man talking to himself.When Wang Tingcouu woke up, he would repeat this sentence again.After Wang Ting heard this, his heart skipped a beat, he jumped up, and chased his horse in the direction Shanren was walking.After galloping for several miles, he caught up with this person.Wang Tingcouu hurriedly got off his horse and stepped forward to salute.In front of him, the worldly expert with a toga and long sleeves turned out to be from Luoshan, Jiyuan.The mountain man said that the breath exhaled by Wang Tingou in his sleep looked like a dragon on the left and a tiger on the right.The combination of dragon and tiger means that he will be king this autumn. This plot obviously plagiarized the creation myth of the Li and Tang royal family.However, the location changed from Zhongnan Mountain to Jiyuan, and the gods changed from Qihui and Li Chunfeng to people from Luoshan.The dragon and tiger in Li Tang's myth turned into two turbid streams of air, blowing out from the nostrils of a treacherous barbarian. Hearing this, Wang Tingcou was both surprised and delighted: Will the great wealth and honor come to the little soldier and horse envoy?Yes, I will.A dim and incompetent emperor, a group of ministers vying for power and profit, will give the heroes everywhere opportunities that they themselves can't imagine. Wang Chengyuan did not have a hereditary Jiedushi, which once disappointed the soldiers of Chengde.In order to comfort their emotions, Li You generously promised a reward of one million cash.However, one month, two months, and three months have passed, and the reward has not been sent to Hebei for a long time.When issuing the imperial edict, the emperor didn't consider that there was not much money left in the treasury; and the minister in charge of the branch was procrastinating, and he didn't know when he would be able to make up the reward.Dissatisfaction is like "the wind blows from all directions".The soldiers of Chengde, who had always hated Tian Hongzheng, began to suspect that he was a hindrance and wanted to embezzle the rewards from the court. The turbulent situation made Wang Tingcou have a deeper understanding of the prophecy of the Luoshan people.Just having dragons and tigers in your nostrils will not accomplish great things.The Arbus people believed that the book full of conspiracy would tell him what to do.If the hatred for Tian Hongzheng is like a hidden fire, those few provocative words with ulterior motives are like a ray of evil wind.Wang Tingcouu wants to use the tongues of Su Qin and Zhang Yi to fan the flames and stir up the soldiers who are dazzled by anger; let the rebellion spread everywhere.The flames soared into the sky and burned the entire Zhenzhou.At this time, he can plan behind the scenes and direct in the middle like Sun Bin and Pang Juan—this Absi talent is Mr. Guigu's second-generation disciple and successor. When Wang Ting was surrounded by the rebel soldiers and walked into the Jiedu Hall with his head held high, he only saw bright red blood spraying like a flat sunset... Under the coercion of the sword, the eunuch of the supervising army went to Chang'an dejectedly, and begged for the success of the royal court.Chang'an, who was furious and angry, flatly rejected the request.Until this time, the emperor remembered Yang Yuanqing's words.He gave this long-lost man a white jade belt and appointed him Jingyuan Jiedu envoy.But this is not what Yang Yuanqing wants. News came from Zhenzhou that five Chengde generals headed by General Wang Jian conspired to assassinate Wang Tingcou.News leaked.All five generals and their 3,000 soldiers were killed.A few days later, the armies of Wei Bo, Henghai, Zhaoyi, Hedong and Yiwu were ordered to gather in Chengde from all sides. "The geese flocked with surprise" announced that a memorable era of ZTE is really gone forever.
