Chapter 453: Irritability
Zeng Xian had been imprisoned, and Zhou Heng sent courtiers to persuade him to surrender. He first raised his own conditions for his high status, and asked the beautiful woman beside the emperor to accompany him when he opened his mouth. Knowing that the beautiful woman she saw that day was the current queen, she was so frightened that she didn't dare to say anything more, so she changed her official position. The courtiers reported to Zhou Heng, but Zhou Heng categorically refused.
Zhou Heng's condition was that he surrendered and exempted him from death and placed him under house arrest for life. Do not surrender and take it to the Taimiao, and pay tribute to the spirit of Emperor An in the sky.
If it weren't for the purpose of appeasing the twenty or thirty thousand Tatar captives, Zhou Heng had already taken him to Sheep's Horn Fort when he captured him alive, and Ling Chi was executed, otherwise would he have kept him for nothing?
Zeng first wanted to hold it and get some benefits as the Tatar Great Khan, but later heard that the emperor who was captured by him and committed suicide was the current emperor's own brother, his heart was half cold, and after thinking about it again and again, he decided to surrender.
Cui Keyin heard the news that Zeng had surrendered first, and went to the big tent of the Chinese army to comfort Zhou Heng. As an emperor, you can't do what you want. According to his original intention, he really wanted to kill Zeng Xian.
Zhou Heng was writing big characters, and the inked big characters on the rice paper were like knives and halberds, as if they wanted to fly out.
Cui Keyin didn't let Huanxi report, quietly walked in, gently wrapped her arms around Zhou Heng's waist, and said softly: "There is always a way." ”
People are in his hands, and it shouldn't be difficult to want him to die, right?
The gentle and sweet breath entwined up, Zhou Heng's heart trembled, put down the pen, held Cui Keyin's hand, and sighed: "I promised him that if he descends, spare him from death." I am the Son of Heaven, and I cannot lose my trust in the world. ”
It's not that you lose your trust in Zeng Xian, but that you lose your trust in the world! The emperor has a daily note, and every word and deed is recorded by historians. Even if he had never died. If he had died violently first, the historian would naturally make a note in the history books.
It is not worth leaving a stain on such a person.
Cui Keyin said softly: "The emperor promised him not to die, but the concubines didn't." ”
Anyway, it is no longer possible to kill him openly and honestly to pay tribute to Emperor An's spirit in the sky, so she can only kill it secretly, it is better for her to do it.
Zhou Heng turned around, wrapped Cui Keyin into his arms, and sighed: "Silly Yinyin, do I ignore your reputation for the sake of a false reputation behind me?" ”
No matter which of the two shoots. will leave a mark in the history books. Even if Shen Mingzhu is allowed to take revenge, it will not work.
People are always burdened by false fame, but people can't live without desires.
Cui Keyin sighed and said, "The concubine doesn't care about the name. ”
Didn't you just kill Zeng Xian? How did the historian write?
"Fool. You and I are husband and wife. I kill is kill. Isn't it killing if you kill? Zhou Heng's heart was full of emotion, kissed her forehead, and said, "I will wait for him to die." Then use his head to pay tribute to the royal brother. ”
But then you have to wait many years. Cui Keyin said that she still didn't say anything.
The two hugged each other for a long time, and it wasn't until Zhou Heng's mood gradually calmed down that he let go of her and said, "Concubine De is okay?" ”
Since Zeng arrived first, Shen Mingzhu sharpened his knife twice in three days, Huo Huo wanted to kill him. Cui Keyin had no choice but to let Mama Zhao accompany her, and let a group of musicians sing and dance from time to time to distract her attention, trying not to worry about Zeng Xian. How can you forget the revenge of killing your husband? The result of this was that Shen Mingzhu secretly ran to the camp where Zeng Xian was being held, and forcibly broke in, if it weren't for Zeng Xian's escape, the guards outside the camp were guarded, I was afraid that she would really be killed.
If she really killed Zeng Xian, she wouldn't have Zhou Heng's depression at this moment. Of course, it was also more difficult to pacify the captives.
After all, these captives don't have a sense of belonging to the Dajia Dynasty, and everyone killed you to death two days ago, and it is indeed difficult for people to be good citizens on the enemy's territory in two days.
It is not a matter of one or two days for these people to integrate into the Great Good Dynasty and become the people who have kept their peace. Zhou Heng estimated that it would take at least three or five years. Cui Keyin thought so. The courtiers who had to be sent to pacify him had to do a meticulous job, and if he hadn't provoked a riot, he was afraid that things would have been even more difficult.
At this point, Zhou Heng has a word for words, if Wu Jiang and the others do well, they will be transferred back to the capital after the matter is completed, if they don't do well, they will come to see them.
And as the hero of the Tatars, the Great Khan of the captives, Zeng Xian could only live well during this time.
Cui Keyin said: "To get a large piece of land, even if you barely wait for Zeng Xian to die, it is worth it." ”
This is the most sensible thing to do. Zhou Heng is not a person who does not know the seriousness, on the contrary, he is calmer than anyone else, otherwise he would not have sworn to kill Zeng Xian to avenge Emperor Zhi'an, and he would still be locked up instead of killing him with a knife.
"That's it." Zhou Heng sighed. There are gains and losses in everything, and it is necessary to pay a certain price to expand the territory.
Zhou Heng glanced at the messy dragon case, and the big characters written were blown all over the ground by the wind at some point, and there were piles of east and west on the ground. He was impetuous, if he hadn't forced himself to practice calligraphy, he would have killed Zeng Xian a long time ago.
Cui Keyin followed his gaze, the two have been married for several years, how can they not understand him? Zhou Heng was irritable to practice calligraphy, after the change of Sheephorn Fort, the capital was empty, and the ministers rushed to propose to move south, that night, he also practiced calligraphy in the study.
This is the second time he has done so, which shows how bad his mood is.
Cui Keyin walked over, put away the pieces of paper with large characters written on them, folded them, and put them in a box.
Zhou Heng hugged Cui Keyin into his arms again and said, "If you have a wife like this, what more can you ask for!" ”
His Yin Yin is the person who understands him best, and being able to join hands with her for a lifetime is a blessing he cultivated in his previous life.
That's what I said. Cui Keyin blushed and said angrily, "I'll go see Concubine De." ”
Seeing Cui Keyin leave, Zhou Heng instructed Huanxi to come in and clean up, and sat down to make a batch of folds.
Before approaching Shen Mingzhu's tent, he had already heard Sheng's song. The palace people who stopped the report stepped into the tent door and saw four kabuki dancing, but Shen Mingzhu buried his head in the pile of paper in front of the case. Is it like Zhou Heng who is in a bad mood and practices calligraphy? Isn't she illiterate? Cui Keyin was curious.
When she got closer, she was drawing circles, gritting her teeth and saying, "If I curse you, I will curse you." ”
Is this the real version of Draw a circle and curse you? Cui Keyin smiled and said, "What is my sister doing?" ”
When the singers saw that the queen was coming, they stopped dancing and saluted, and Cui Keyin motioned for them to go down.
Shen Mingzhu looked up and saw Cui Keyin coming, threw away the pen in his hand, and said, "Why don't I assassinate him?" Rest assured, no one will find out. ”
Cui Keyin pressed her and said, "I allow you to go, what's the difference between me and sending someone?" ”
Shen Mingzhu's expression darkened, and he said, "He is as strong as an ox, I am afraid that if I die, he will live for another thirty years." ”
The most painful thing is that the enemy is in front of him, but he can't take revenge with his own hands.
Cui Keyin had to persuade for a long time, and said: "The first emperor's wish has finally been fulfilled, and now that Tatar is gone, there is no longer the title of Tatar in the world." After returning to Beijing, the emperor will go to the Taimiao Temple to worship the ancestors and ancestors. The first emperor has a spirit in the sky, and he must be very relieved to see this scene. ”
Shen Mingzhu thought about it, and was a little relieved. (To be continued.) )
