Xiao Yan patted the dragon chair and was furious:

"Make peace with this thief, it's better to let Lao Tzu die!"

Xiao Gang saw that Xiao Yan was still stubborn, so he had to use the agitation method:

"The alliance under the city is indeed a great shame, and the sons and daughters are actually quite resistant to the matter of peace, since the father resolutely disagrees, then we can only go head-on and fight to the death!"

When Xiao Yan heard that he was going to fight, he thought about it, he really didn't have the capital to fight Hou Jing, even if he knew that Hou Jing was a fraud, what would he do?

With a long sigh, he said to Xiao Gang:

"You can do it yourself, don't make people laugh for a thousand years."

When Xiao Gang heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to deal with the matter of peace.

Hou Jing was also relieved to learn that Xiao Yan agreed to make peace, otherwise, he really didn't know how to continue to carry it. After breathing a sigh of relief, he was planning how to pit Xiao Yan.

As soon as Hou Jing opened his mouth, he asked Xiao Yan to cut the four states in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River for him, these four states are: Southern Yuzhou and Hezhou (when Hou Jinglai defected to Nanliang, Xiao Yan patted Yang Yaren and others, led 30,000 elite soldiers, and went to the county to respond, and after that, the edict took the county as Yuzhou and Shouchun as Southern Yuzhou. Hefei was changed to Hezhou, and the original Hezhou was Nanhezhou), Guangzhou (now Huangchuan County, Henan), and Xiyu Prefecture (now Huaining County, Anhui).

This is another place where if you can stand on your feet, it will be a place where the three parties will be wooed, but Hou Jing is not afraid, one day these three parties will discuss and destroy him together? This kind of thing is all written in history, and it can be seen from this that Hou Jing is a person who is unwilling to be subservient.

At that time, when Hou Jing came to attach, there was opposition to not killing people in the court, Xiao Yan ignored it, and he had to accept Hou Jing, and if he accepted it, he would accept it, so he pulled out his teeth, but he indulged Hou Jing.

When he was in the north, Hou Jing had two tigers pressing, he didn't dare to show his claws, and when he arrived in the south, although there were a few tigers, these tigers were not united, they restrained each other, restrained each other, and a dizzy animal trainer, Hou Jing, the tiger, finally found a chance to show his claws.

Xiao Yan is luring the tiger into the room, it is really "Liang Zhi's greedy and reckless enter, but he is self-effervious".

Not only did he want Sizhou, but he also wanted Xiao Daqi, the king of Xuancheng, to go out of the city to see him off, and then he would break the siege and cross the river.

This time, who knows whether it is evil or auspicious, Xiao Daqi is Xiao Gang's eldest son, and it is very likely that he will become another emperor in the future, so everyone objected and resolutely disagreed, so they let Xiao Daqi's younger brother, Shicheng Gong Xiao Daqian replace Xiao Daqi.

After that, there was an altar outside the Xihua Gate, and sent Shangshu to shoot Wang Ke, and serve Xiao Shao, Hou Xiao Shao, who was also a regular servant of the scattered horses, and Yu Ziyue, Wang Wei ascended the altar to join the alliance.

The right guard general Liu Jin led the troops out of the city from the Xihua Gate, and Hou Jing led the troops out of his camp gate, and Liu Jin was far away, killing livestock and blood alliance.

Ancient people really believed in this kind of thing, hehe.

Not only that, Hou Jing also put forward various requirements, such as:

Xiao Yan's fourth son, the son of Xiao Ji, the king of Nankang, Xiao Huili, the heir of Nankang, and others, led 30,000 troops to Mazhou (now Jingjiang, Jiangsu), Hou Jing was afraid that the army on the north bank would go up to the city from Bai and cut off his way across the river, so he asked the imperial court to recall the troops back to the south bank, and the imperial court issued an edict to let the Jiangbei army move to Jiangtanyuan.

In this way, Hou Jing's retreat opened.

Another example:

Hou Jing said again, "Yong'an Hou Xiao and Zhao Weifang scolded me vigorously across the fence, saying 'The Son of Heaven made an alliance with you, and we still have to pursue you'." Call them back to the city, and I will pluck them. The court ordered them all to be recalled. Hou Jing then transported the rice from Dongcheng to Stone City, and the military rations were sufficient.

In this way, Hou Jing's army will not go hungry.

Another example:

Seeing that his requirements were all met, he wrote to Xiao Yan again, "A letter from the west bank said that Gao Cheng has occupied Shouchun and Zhongli, and I have nowhere to live, so I will temporarily borrow Guangling and Qiaozhou, and when I take Shouchun and Zhongli back, I will immediately return Guangling and Qiaozhou to the imperial court." ”

In the face of Hou Jing's various requests, the imperial court also had the intention to ignore them, but the situation in the city was very bad.

At the beginning, when Taicheng was besieged, there were more than 100,000 men and women in the city, and 30,000 people in armor, but by this time the people were about to die of illness, and there were only two or three thousand people defending the city, and they were all weak and cowardly. The streets were littered with dead bodies, unburied, and the stench spread for miles, and the juice of the dead bodies was flowing all over the ravines.

If it drags on any longer, it will become a dead city, obviously there is a lot of reluctance in his heart, and even curses, but Hou Jing is now holding the seven inches of the people in the city, no matter how dissatisfied he is, he has to hold back, and then, he still satisfies Hou Jing one by one.

At this time, Wang Wei gave Hou Jing another idea:

"The king, as a minister, raised an army to rebel and besieged the palace for more than 100 days. Coerced and insulted the concubine and princess, ** trampled on the royal temple, where to stay in the field today? I hope that the king will wait and see for the time being. ”

Hou Jing thought about it, he had no way to retreat now, what Shouchun, what Guangling, even if he retreated to these places, I was afraid that it would be difficult to gain a foothold, so he agreed to Wang Wei's proposal.

At this time, Yang Yaren, Liu Zhongli, and Xiao Si, the crown prince of Poyang, marched to the north of Dongfu City.

However, before the barrier was built, Song Zixian, the general of Hou Jing's department, was defeated and put his severed head under the imperial city.

Hou Jing sent Yu Ziyue to sue for peace, and the city sent Yu Shi Cheng Shen Jun to Hou Jing.

The two talked about it, and Shen Jun found that Hou Jing had no intention of withdrawing his troops at all, and Shen Jun reprimanded Hou Jing loudly:

"You're fucking! Untrustworthy! We've all made peace! You're still here begging for nothing! Sure enough, it's a barbarian! Something that can't be on the table! ”

Hou Jing was furious, and immediately brought the water to the gate of the city before the break, and attacked the city from all directions, day and night, and the city was breached.

Hou Jing was overbearing, and sent Shicheng Gongxiao a large amount of money to relieve the reinforcements outside, and the reinforcements from all walks of life were all dispersed, and now, Hou Jing was completely out of threat, uh, at least the current predicament was solved.

Without worries, after Hou Jing entered Jiankang, he drove all the Manchu civil and military forces, let them come out, ordered the soldiers to kill them, and killed 3,000 people, and then killed and plundered, and the corpses filled the road.

The city was broken, Xiao Zhengde was useless, Hou Jing kicked him off the throne, demoted him to the Great Sima, and removed the guards of Emperor Wu Xiao Yan and Prince Xiao Gang, and replaced them with his own people, which was equivalent to imprisoning the two.

In the same year, in the third year of the Taiqing Dynasty (549), on the second day of the fifth month (June 12), Xiao Yan died of hunger and thirst at the age of eighty-six.

Many people in the Xiao family have made great achievements in literature, and Xiao Yan, who was complained about all the way by the bear, should not be underestimated in terms of literary contributions.

In addition, Xiao Yan combined the Confucian "rites" and Taoism's "nothingness" with Buddhism's nirvana and "karma" to create the "Three Religions Homology Theory", which occupies an extremely important position in the history of ancient Chinese Buddhist thought.

Also, in Chinese Buddhism, the rules that have been passed down to the present: monks are not allowed to eat meat, which is also stipulated by Xiao Yan, as mentioned earlier, Xiao Yan is a person who is a Buddha, he believes that Buddhism talks about "not killing", but eating meat is also killing, so this article is stipulated.

Dog Bear believes that the cultivation of the mind is more important than these superficial things, and says that it is a rule that monks cannot marry a wife...... Alas, it's off! It's off track! Come to the bottle pulsating!

Another digression, Wuhu and Sixteen Kingdoms is a troubled era, but Buddhism has achieved unprecedented development in this period, and has established its status after that, the development of religion has not been studied, and I feel that in the dark years when the people are not living and there is no tomorrow, the development of Buddhism is really magical, perhaps because there is no future, so it is pinned on Buddhism that emphasizes the next life?

appeased Xiao Yan, who had been complained about by the bear all the way and had been blown up, let's continue.

Hou Jingmi did not mourn, and welcomed the crown prince Xiao Gang to succeed to the throne, and on the first day of the first month of the first year of Dabao (February 2, 550), a general amnesty was implemented and the year name was changed.

After Xiao Zhengde learned of this, he was stunned, and then reacted:

"Oops! Lao Tzu was deceived by this villain! Say okay, I'll be the emperor! ”

So, he secretly wrote a letter to Xiao Fan, the king of Poyang, hoping that he could send troops to come, but he was intercepted by Hou Jing and others, and in June, Xiao Zhengde was removed.

Xiao Zhengde doesn't have that ability, he still dares to seek skin with the tiger, and in the end, if he is not eaten by the tiger, what can he get? How much ability and how much to do.

Although Taicheng was captured, however, there was still a large area of land in Southern Liang that was not subject to Hou Jing, so Hou Jing led the generals to fight, and at the end of the same year, the three Wu were all occupied by Hou Jing, and its momentum reached its peak.

Xiao Gang is not as beautiful as before, now he is a puppet emperor, what title does Hou Jing want, what official position does he want, Xiao Gang has to do it, and if he wants to marry Xiao Gang's daughter Princess Liyang, Xiao Gang has to hand over the woman to Hou Jing even if he grits his teeth.

At this time, Hou Jing, while embracing the beauty, occupied the Sanwu region, and Mei Zizi proclaimed himself the general of the universe and the military governor of Liuhe.

At this time, the kings of the Liang Dynasty not only did not attack Jiankang, but killed each other, Xiao Yi killed Xiao Yu and Xiao Yu, and his son Xiao Fang and others also died in the civil war, Xiao Jing defected to the Western Wei Dynasty, and the kings of Xiao Lun, Xiao Fan, and Xiao Daxin also attacked each other.

In fact, the Sanwu region did not occupy much of the Southern Liang, and the strength of the Southern Liang was not much lost in the battle with Hou Jing, but because of the mutual struggle between the kings, even if there were those who rose up to resist Hou Jing, they were all alone, and they were soon settled by Hou Jing.

On the 17th day of the eighth month of the second year of Dabao (October 2, 551), Hou Jing sent the puppet guard Wei Qing Peng Jun and Xianggong Wang Seng Gui into the palace to abolish the emperor as the king of Jin'an. He killed more than 20 people such as the crown prince Xiao Daqi, Xiao Daxin, the king of Xunyang, Xiao Dajun, the king of Xiyang, Xiao Dawei, the king of Wuning, Xiao Daqiu, the king of Jian'an, Xiao Daxin, the king of Yi'an, and the sons of the king of Xunyang.
