Chapter 837: Wanting to destroy Luoyang City
In the old residence of King Jin, the carriages lined up in a long line, spreading to the outside of the square, and the guards of the Yulin Forest carried large bags and small wraps, and one by one they were still on the car.
"Hurry up, don't grind, Your Majesty said, it must all be loaded before dawn......"
General Yulin also became a temporary overseer, holding a horsewhip and anxiously urging his subordinates to step up the lifting of goods.
At this time, An Qingxu finally put on a robe that could be seen, no longer a collared silk robe, and his hair was scattered.
"Your Majesty, think twice, once you move the capital, it will be very difficult to come back!"
An Qingxu tidied up his robe, obviously he was still a little uncomfortable with this kind of clothes that tightened his whole body.
"I don't want to move the capital, but the soldiers and horses of the Tang Dynasty even burned the palace city, and the Xuanhui Gate was also occupied by others, but you can compete a little bit, can I give up this flowery eastern capital?"
As the Son of Heaven, even if he is greedy for pleasure, no matter how stupid and incompetent, there is no reason to give up the capital, in An Qingxu's view, the Tang Dynasty is bound to Luoyang, and the Yan army seems to have reached the end of the crossbow, and it has become impossible to hold Luoyang.
"Please think twice, Your Majesty has already sent someone to negotiate with Ji Wu, as long as he can take the overall situation into account, even if the minister gives him the position of Zhongshu Ling. As long as Hanjiacang City is still in our hands, we have the capital to fight the Tang Dynasty, and it is very possible to repel the Shenwu army. Also, the soldiers and horses from Qilu and Huaixi have also returned, Your Majesty, we are not fighting alone!"
An Qingxu couldn't bear An Shouzhong's hard work, and finally flicked his sleeves.
"Okay, I'll give you a chance, wait another day, one day, if you can't see a turnaround, there will be no room for negotiation about moving the capital!"
After speaking, he turned his head again and asked Da Xixun, who was standing beside him:
"Da Xiqing, what is the attitude of the ministers of the government and the opposition towards the relocation of the capital?"
Da Xixun hurriedly stepped forward and replied:
"Your Majesty, the ministers of the government and the opposition have no intention of objecting, and there is almost no resistance to the move of the capital in the court!"
An Qingxu nodded with satisfaction.
"Ming issued an edict, let the ministers prepare and prepare, and they all went to Luoyang together......
Halfway through his words, he pondered for a while.
"Voluntary, the ministers voluntarily moved north with me, and if they don't want to go, I won't force it. ”
He suddenly thought that there were tens of thousands of officials in Luoyang, and if all those who dragged their families and families went north with them, how much grain would they have to waste on the way? On the contrary, it would be better to implement the principle of voluntariness, and those who were unwilling to leave would stay and save him a large amount of grain.
Da Xixun agreed, but he didn't think so. An Qingxu took An Shouzhong, the butcher, as his appearance, and killed tens of thousands of courtiers and generals in just ten days, which was already unpopular, and the vast majority of people wished that An Qingxu would hurry up and roll up and get out, if the principle of voluntariness was implemented, it would be too much for an adult to follow him on his back.
Thinking of this, Da Xixun looked at An Shouzhong again, this person obviously did not want to give up Luoyang, and was making a final effort for this. However, in his opinion, the possibility of convincing Ji Wu is very small, unless An Shouzhong is willing to sacrifice himself and offer his head and hands, Ji Wu will exchange Hanjiacang City for the imperial court.
And at that time, wouldn't An Qingxu become a puppet that Ji Wu played with in the applause? In the end, Luoyang City would still not be able to hold it, and it would be a matter of time before the capital was moved.
An Shouzhong is not a loyal minister, nor will he be pedantic to the point of sacrificing his life for righteousness.
In this way, Da Xixun thought to himself that he could see clearly, why An Qingxu couldn't see through it? He also wanted to give An Shouzhong a chance to stay, you must know that the battlefield situation is changing rapidly, and the ghost knows what the situation in Luoyang will be at this time tomorrow, and if the war situation deteriorates badly, it is very possible for the dignified Yan Tianzi to become a prisoner of the Tang Dynasty.
It's just that Da Xixun won't say these words, and he doesn't want to say them to An Qingxu. As the so-called tree falls and scatters, the former Datang Henan Yin has also begun to seek a way out for his future.
An Qingxu let out a long sigh, but he held back his heavy sleepiness, at such a critical moment, he asked the overseers to load as many things as possible, if they leaked, then they could only cheapen the Tang Dynasty people for nothing.
An Shouzhong walked away quickly, Da Xixun looked at his back and felt a little faltering, this is also a cold-blooded butcher, and in just ten days, it is enough to rely on the notoriety and shine in the annals of history, Prime Minister Dayan, who is actually emaciated,
Although Da Xixun's ability is average, he prides himself on seeing people more accurately. Although An Shouzhong continued to hide his inner hesitation with toughness, the instinctive reaction of his body had betrayed him.
It wasn't until An Shouzhong walked away that An Qingxu whispered to Da Xixun:
"Da Xiqing immediately told his family to pack up the gold and silver, and the date of moving the capital will not be delayed!"
Da Xixun was stunned.
"Then, what about An Xianggong?"
An Qingxu said nonchalantly:
'I promised him that I could leave a day later, but I didn't say I had to wait for him?'
Da Xixun said in his heart, this is obviously a strong word, I haven't seen the situation just now, and I remember what I said clearly, and I definitely told An Shouzhong that I would make a decision to move down one day.
At this time, Da Xixun actually sympathized with An Shouzhong, and the author's futile efforts for an agreement that did not exist at all might as well admit defeat and flee north with An Qingxu.
To tell the truth, Da Xixun's heart is entangled, he wants to stay and rejoin the Tang Dynasty, but he is afraid that Qin and Jin will rebel and settle accounts after the autumn, and in the end it will be difficult to escape the punishment of the imperial court. But if you follow An Qingxu to the north, you will really become a lost dog, and Shi Siming will turn against An Qingxu sooner or later, no matter how you look at it, there is no future at all with such a dim and incompetent master.
"The minister dares to ask Your Majesty, where is the country going?"
An Qingxu blurted out almost without thinking:
"Yecheng!"
Da Xixun said secretly, it seems that An Qingxu is not completely fleeing north in a hurry, and there should be some thoughts of recovery in his heart.
Yecheng has been a big city in Hebei since it became the capital of Cao Wei in the late Han Dynasty. Especially in the Northern Dynasties, it was a big city with a status comparable to Luoyang.
It's a pity that before Emperor Wen of Sui and Yang Jian usurped Zhou Zili, in order to completely cut off the anti-Yang forces in Hebei, he burned down this big city that had accumulated for hundreds of years. Since then, Yecheng has been in a slump, and later the Tang Dynasty has built a small city with a radius of only a few miles in the Zhenguan period, and Yecheng has a city again, but it is only a small city with a population of only more than 10,000 people.
Now the big cities in Hebei Province can't be counted with both hands, and An Qingxu doesn't go anywhere, but wants to go to Yecheng, which is enough to prove that this person still hasn't despaired in his heart.
However, it is one thing not to despair, and it is another thing to have the ability to carry Yecheng forward.
"Your Majesty Shengming! Yecheng has been a place of dragons and tigers since ancient times, if you take this as the foundation, you will definitely be able to return to Luoyang one day!"
Unexpectedly, An Qingxu showed a rather weird smile.
"I won't come back, this is my nightmare land, and from now on, there will be no Luoyang in this world!"
Suddenly, Da Xixun had an ominous premonition in his heart.
An Qingxu's eyes flashed with a rare light, and he looked directly at Da Xixun.
"I might as well give you a low head first, I'm gone, Dayan has moved the capital, and I will never leave the whole Luoyang to the Tang Dynasty and burn it down!
The ominous premonition that national security had come true, An Qingxu actually had the intention of destroying Luoyang, and he suddenly thought of those officials who refused to follow An Qingxu to the north, and the fate can be imagined.
"Your Majesty, in such a hurry, did you bring the people?"
In fact, he asked this to confirm whether An Qingxu wanted to burn the people of Luoyang City!
"The people? Those people are looking forward to the Tang soldiers entering the city, how can they ever regard me as the Son of Heaven? This kind of people don't want it! Da Xiqing, I know that you are loyal to me, so I told you the details of all these actions in advance, and remind you that the children of the relatives must let them prepare in advance, and before sunrise tomorrow, they must be ready no matter what! At the latest, the sunset must pass, otherwise even if you want to leave, you won't be able to go!"
Da Xixun was shocked, he knew that the reason why An Qingxu had the latest words about sunset tomorrow was to set fire to the city after sunset. The reason why the time of action was chosen after sunset is that after sunset, the people and the people have slept and rested one after another, but it is inconvenient to move at night, which is extremely unfavorable to firefighting, and I can't imagine that An Qingxu is so ruthless to Luoyang!
"What are you doing?"
An Qingxu saw that Da Xixun was stunned and didn't speak, so he urged him to prepare early.
"The minister is terrified, Your Majesty is so loving, I don't know how to repay it!"
After Da Xixun reacted, his heart was pounding even more, for fear that An Qingxu would see through his thoughts, so he hurriedly explained.
An Qingxu laughed when he heard this.
"Da Xiqing is not like this, I have never treated loyal people badly, and when I come to Yecheng in the future, the Zhongshu Order will be yours!"
If in the past, Dayan's Zhongshu Order was still quite tempting to Da Xixun, but now, he can't wait to even resign from the envoy of his servant, judging from the current situation, but anyone who has done Da Yan's Zhongshu Order, from the strict calculation, almost no good end, how can he easily enter the court?
Besides, Da Xixun's wife, Cui, has always had the heart to return to the Tang Dynasty, how could he be allowed to follow An Qingxu north?
"Thank you Your Majesty Longen, but the minister's virtue is shallow, I am afraid that he is incompetent, and he has disappointed His Majesty's high expectations!"
An Qingxu was full of words.
"I can see it now, this subordinate, it is better to use his ability than to use his loyalty, I just see your loyalty!"
Da Xixun secretly smiled bitterly, he was indeed average, but such comments came out of the mouth of the dim-witted and incompetent An Qingxu, which always made people feel embarrassed.
