Lingyun, known as Sicheng in ancient times.

Since the Song Dynasty in the fifth year of Huangyou in the Guangnan West Road, Yongzhou Youjiang Road, Sicheng Prefecture, to the current Ming Dynasty Wanli eight years, Lingyun County has a history of about 600 years of state, government and county governance.

Lingyun is a hundred Yue land in ancient times, and Qin belongs to Guilin County; Han and Jin belong to Yulin County; Tang belonged to the Yong Twin Cities Prefecture. Song Huangyou began to place Sicheng Prefecture in five years, which belongs to Youjiang Road, Yongzhou, Guangnan West Road; The Yuan Dynasty was still called Sicheng Prefecture; During the Ming Dynasty, the Cen Tusi of Sicheng Prefecture infiltrated the power into the Guizhou realm, and governed Luodian, Wangmo, Zhenfeng, Caiheng, Lizhou, Tangxing, Guile, Shanglintong, Anlong, Gukantong, Chengxian, and Longchuan.

In the sixth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the Tusi Cen clan moved the governance of Sicheng Prefecture to Gukantong, which is now Lingyun City, and Sicheng Prefecture became the largest Zhili Prefecture in Guangxi.

The current Sicheng Prefecture Tuzhi Prefecture Cen Shaoxun as early as the 30th year of Jiajing to Chong Ling to take office, when his father Cen Shi was actually only more than thirty years old, it is said that it was because of the injury that he asked the court to let his son take the post in advance, Cen Shi died when Cen Ling was just born.

Gao pragmatic came from Tianzhou to the northwest and along the road of the imperial court's horse post. After Tianzhou, all the way through Bosai Horse Station, Guile Horse Station, to Dianma Station, and then turn to the northeast to Lingyun City.

At present, Lingyun City is already in sight, but the ancients said: Looking at the mountain and running a dead horse, this Lingyun City is actually in the mountains, the terrain is very high, and the high pragmatism under the mountain can even be seen in the mountains shrouded in clouds and mist.

No wonder it's called Lingyun City, it's really not nonsense.

However, this kind of terrain can be regarded as making Gao Pragmatic understand one thing: back then, Tianzhou Cen Meng's strength was the best in Guangxi, but he caught Sicheng Prefecture for several years, and he actually didn't take Lingyun City, and now it seems that it is really not Cen Meng who is incompetent, but the terrain of Lingyun City is too easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Gao Pragmatic couldn't help but be a little afraid, and said secretly: Fortunately, I didn't plan to storm this city, otherwise the difficulties of transportation alone would have brought down this poor Guangxi.

Cen Ling, as the landlord, accompanied Gao Pragmatic and Faithful to move forward like a reined in the horse, while helping him introduce the situation of the Cen family: "According to the platform, my Cen family started from the surname of Zhou Dynasty Ji, Zhou Wen Wang Ji Chang sealed his half-brother Yao's son Qu in Cen Ting, the viscount of his land Liang Guobei, known as Cen Zi, because of his descendants, later generations moved to Nanyang, Henan, has a history of more than 3,000 years.

From Zhou to Qin for more than 1,000 years, there is no written record. To the Han Dynasty, out of Cen Peng Gong, was ordered to conquer Shu, the general of the Southern Army, the Marquis of Wuyin, and died in Sichuan. Since the Han Dynasty, there are historical records of my Cen clan's sect, that is, Nanyang is the place of origin.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were Cen Wenwen, Cen Changqian, Cen Xi and Cen Shen Shiweng. Cen Shen settled in Sichuan and extended into the second branch. During the Song Dynasty, Cen Jingquan moved from Nanyang to Zhejiang, extending into the third branch. Cen Zhengshu moved from Zhejiang to Guangdong, and it became the fourth branch. ”

Gao pragmatic smiled and said, "Your family's genealogical research is more detailed than my family's. However, in this case, how did you come to Guangxi later? ”

Cen Ling smiled, his face was not without shame, and explained: "In the fourth year of Emperor Song You, Cen Zhongshu, the second son of Cen Shiheng, the second son of Cen Xiang, followed Di Qing to conquer Guangxi Nong Zhigao, and was knighted and settled in Guangxi by the imperial court, becoming the ancestor of the Cen family in Guangxi.

The Cen clan who stayed in Yongzhou became the fifth branch, and then there were those who moved to Lianghu and Fujian, mostly from Zhejiang. Most of the people who moved to Yungui originated in Guangxi.

In the Yuan Dynasty, Cen Timur, the eighth grandson of Cen Zhongshu, was in charge of Tianzhou Mansion, Cen Ashulan was in charge of Si'en Mansion, Cen Numuhan was in charge of Sicheng Mansion, and Cen Ashuxin was in charge of Zhen'an Mansion, and then became a tribe of the four provinces of Guangxi. It can be said that the Cen clan in western Guangxi today is basically a branch descendant of these four prefectures. ”

"Oh, it turns out that your Cen family has been divided into four at that time."

Gao Shishi's expression moved, and he said in his heart: No wonder the Cen family is not as united as the Huang family, I originally thought it was because of the great cause of the family, but now I see that there is still something inside, it is because the family was separated earlier......

This is not very easy to do, although they are all surnamed Cen, but the so-called clan love between each other, I am afraid that it has long been as weak as water, I want to unite them, relying on blood is estimated to be no play, it is better to use the old way, to use coercion and gali to lure directly.

Cen Ling said the genealogy, and introduced the situation of the mountains and rivers in Sicheng Prefecture to Gao Pragmatic, and Gao Pragmatic also listened very carefully.

After a while, after Cen Ling finished speaking, he suddenly smiled and said: "According to the platform, it is my six champions of the Ming Dynasty, the world is the Kui, come to my Lingyun City today, Cen Ling is brave, I don't know if you can please leave some words and ink treasures according to the platform, to honor Sicheng?" ”

Gao was slightly stunned, and said secretly: Why has the leadership inscription become popular in recent years?

However, Cen Ling was the person he planned to support, so it was not good to save face, so he smiled slightly: "Since you Cen Qigongzi said it, I will send a couplet to Sicheng...... But it's not good to pick up the pen at the moment, Mobao Yunyun, I'll give it to you when I enter the city. ”

Cen Ling was overjoyed, and immediately bowed to Gao pragmatically: "Thank you for pressing the stage, the lower officials have thanked you first." ”

Gao Pragmatic raised his head and looked around, groaned slightly, and said:

"The four mountains are towering, a stream of water, often called Sizhong shape victory;

Liangjiang County, Baiyue Rongzun, long inheritance of heavenly grace. ”

Cen Ling was overjoyed, thanked him again and again, and then suddenly thought in his heart: Does this sentence "inherit the heavenly grace for a long time" mean that my family has been grateful for a long time, or does it mean that he hopes that my family will continue to be loyal to the imperial court, so as to "inherit" this "heavenly grace" for a long time?

Or does the "heavenly grace" in his mouth mean something else?

As for "Baiyue Rongzun, Liangjiang Shangjun", Cen Ling felt that Sicheng was well deserved.

In the early years, there was a Guangxi political secretary who played the imperial court to talk about the situation of Guangxi Tusi, saying, "All the Tusi are the strongest in Tianzhou and Sicheng, and Nandan is the second." Tianzhou is near the big river, the terrain is flat, hundreds of miles of fertile fields, tens of thousands of elite soldiers, and a call is answered; The chieftain was rebellious and sympathetic, and he was embarrassed by the Tusi, so he did not have a look at my interior. Sicheng is more than 1,000 miles, the soldiers win Tianzhou, scattered in caves, the stone city is dangerous, and Basho Pass is particularly steep and solid. ”

Later, Tianzhou was divided by the imperial court after the Cen Meng rebellion, and its strength declined a lot. ”

It can be seen that today's Sicheng Prefecture can be called a wide area, a large number of people, and a strong army.

The only trouble, that is, there was chaos inside, he was actually secretly placed under house arrest by Huang Ma, and he guarded Lingyun City, which was easy to defend and difficult to attack, so that although Sicheng was strong, it was only gold and jade, and it was defeated, otherwise when the Bazhai Rebellion was pacified last year, how could Siming Mansion take the lead and make the first contribution in the Tusi?

In addition, Huang Zhiting, this girl doesn't know what to think now, and she seems to have recognized Gao Xun's press...... If you want to say that this high patrol press is powerful, it is powerful, and the background is really strong, but no matter how you say it, he has only been doing this patrol press for a year after all!

Huang Zhiting's decision is too easy, in case after Gao Xun's return to Beijing next year, the new Xun's political ideas are completely different from Gao Xun's, I want to see what you do.

While thinking about it, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a team of soldiers and horses coming down from the mountain in front of him, and there were at least hundreds of people. Cen Ling's eyes froze, he carefully looked at the banner of the soldiers and horses, and turned his head to Gao Shishi and said: "According to the platform, Lingyun City sent someone down to greet the press platform, and the lower officials saw the banner of the Luo Hu Huang family - oh, the Luo Hu Huang family is the Huang Ma family." ”

Gao pragmatic nodded and asked, "Is Huang Ma himself here?" ”

"I don't know yet." Cen Ling squinted his eyes and looked ahead, and said, "There are about eight hundred people here, if Huang Ma is also there......"

Gao pragmatic shook his head and said: "Even if he comes, he won't be moved now, don't worry, just watch." ”
