19. Dingzhou (2)

Wang directly led the Khitan into the Kou, which caused chaos on the part of the Dingzhou Yiwu Army.

This Wang Du was originally the adopted son of Wang Chuzhi, whose real name was Liu Yunlang, and later changed his name to Wang Du, who has always been favored by Wang Chuzhi and wants to be established as an heir. However, in order to unite with the Khitan to "resist the Jin", Wang Chuzhi promised to pass on the heir to his son Wang Yu. At this time, the king was a little anxious, so he revealed the news that Wang Chuzhi secretly colluded with the Khitan. Now that the soldiers of the Dingzhou Army are gone, we Huaxia people are fighting among themselves, and your old king has attracted the Khitans, doesn't this make everyone become traitors? !

Wang Du took advantage of the dissatisfaction of these soldiers in the army and took the opportunity to incite the soldiers to rebel, imprisoned Wang Chuzhi and his wives and concubines, and beheaded all the henchmen of Wang Chuzhi's descendants in Dingzhou. Thinking that back then, Wang Chu directly seized the position of his nephew Wang Hao's festival envoy, but now it can be regarded as a cycle of heaven, and the retribution is unpleasant.

After Wang Du got Wang Chuzhi, he immediately sent someone to explain the situation to Li Cunqiao, to the effect that Wang Chuzhi was wolf-hearted, colluded with the Khitans, betrayed the motherland, and intended to attack the Jin army, I stood on the position of national righteousness, and had drawn a clear line with Wang Chuzhi, severed the relationship between father and son, and killed relatives in righteousness, locked up the old guy, and asked the king of Jin to recognize him as the new envoy of the righteous army, and was willing to marry his daughter to the son of the king of Jin.

At this time, the king of Jin, Li Cunmiao, was going to Zhenzhou in person, and after hearing the report, he felt that although the royal capital was seeking power and usurping the throne, he was on his side, so he agreed to the request of the royal capital to become an in-law, and appointed the royal capital as the envoy of the Yiwu Army.

After Li Cunqiao ascended the throne, because of his in-laws, Zhuang Zong was still favored by the royal capital, and even Li Siyuan, who was even appointed as the envoy of Youzhou Jiedu, had a conflict with the royal capital, and he also stood on the side of the royal capital, but reprimanded Li Siyuan. This is also one of the reasons why Li Siyuan is extremely jealous of the royal capital, for the sake of the royal capital, Li Cunxuan, who was already suspicious of his generals, almost didn't kill Li Siyuan back then.

At the request of Wang Chuzhi, Abaoji led 200,000 Khitan cavalry troops into Kouyouzhou and Dingzhou, but was led by Li Cunqing, the king of Jin, to lead 5,000 cavalry to charge the battle, and with 20,000 cavalry, he broke the Khitan more than 100,000 cavalry in Wangdu and Baozhou. After being defeated and retreating to the border, Abaoji did not invade the south again in his life, and he could be regarded as admitting the bravery of Li Cunmiao, the king of Jin, from the bottom of his heart.

After Wang Du defeated the Khitan by Li Cunxuan, the king of Jin, he has been firmly in the position of the envoy of the Yiwu Army, and it has been more than ten years. On the contrary, it was Li Qi's cheap uncle Wang Yu, who was taken captive by the angry Abaoji to the north when the Khitan army was defeated and retreated, and has been serving under Abaoji's account.

Wang Du became a festival envoy, and he was angry with his father-in-law Wang Zhizhi, perhaps because he felt guilty, but he believed in Buddhism over the years and often repented. Anyway, I listened to the fools of those great monks, saying that repentance can wash away sins.

Li Qi doesn't believe in this, if repentance works, then what else does the law do? This person has done a bad deed, and he always needs to be punished to pay for the sins he has committed. Unlike the martial artists of this era, Li Qi did not like to kill people, but he especially liked to send those criminals into exile and go to the border to reclaim and garrison the border.

I think this method is good, and I don't consider that in the hearts of many prisoners, this distribution is simply worse than death, and it is better to be directly stabbed.

The king welcomed Li Qi into Dingzhou City with the etiquette of a courtier, and he was much more casual when he arrived at the living room of his house.

With the Tang Dynasty, and even in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Son of Heaven and his subordinates still retained a lot of Hudi style, and when everyone got along in private, they were much more casual, not as strict as the Ming and Qing dynasties.

For example, now, when Wang Du is talking to Li Qi, he is sitting on the side and talking.

Li Qi doesn't have many ideas about marriage, even if it is a noble family, this marriage can't be done by himself, and he is still the emperor.

Wang Du is scheming, and he is also a decisive person, and he seems to be very satisfied with being able to become the ruler of the country.

Besides, this young emperor is still a very talented person, and if he is about to fall, he can be regarded as turning the tide.

Li Qi didn't have much fantasy about chasing his girlfriend before he crossed over, one hit the street, it would be good if someone liked it, how could it be his turn to pick three or four? After this crossing, although his mind was alive, the status of husband and wife with Wang Qiang could not be easily changed. Especially as a monarch, this repentance is also a big taboo.

Moreover, this king also has a great kindness to himself, and the initial provision of hundreds of thousands of silver coins and 3,000 Dingzhou troops allowed him to gain a firm foothold in Jinyang.

He can't do that kind of revenge.

This Dingzhou is located between Youzhou and Zhenzhou, these three northern towns are shaped as one, if the middle place causes chaos, then the whole Zhenzhou is not stable.

"Qiang'er is already nineteen years old after the New Year, and if I don't go out again, I'm going to make people laugh when I become a father, so this marriage has to be done earlier. Your Majesty is the king, and if you give birth to an heir earlier, you can also calm people's hearts and strengthen the foundation of the country. Wang Du sighed in his heart, and now at this point, he had to lick his face and urge marriage in person according to his duty as a courtier.

"In the past few years, I have been guarding the system for the first emperor, and I have no choice but to do it. This year, there was another incident on the side of the Dingyan Army, and I had to deal with it personally, but fortunately, the final result was not bad. It's just that I wronged Miss, and I was rude. Li Qi said politely, "Now that I have just found a vacancy, I will come to the house to propose marriage, and I hope my uncle will forgive me." ”

Wang Du was secretly proud in his heart, but said on his lips: "The old minister was instructed by the first emperor to marry, and it was also a great honor to marry Qiang'er to His Majesty. This is also the blessing that Qiang'er cultivated. Although the old minister was worried, the will of the first emperor could not be violated, and he only hoped that in the future, the phoenix would follow the dragon and raise his eyebrows. ”

Li Qi said: "If I ask to marry Qiang'er, I will definitely cherish it for the rest of my life, grow old together, and live up to my uncle's trust." It's just that on the day of the wedding, there must be a general judge and Lu Shangshu to discuss and decide. ”

The emperor's wedding is a major event, and naturally it will be presided over by Lu Bi, the secretary of Honglu Temple and the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. Anyway, I have already explained to Lu Bi, take advantage of the winter to be fine, pick a day to do things, don't give it until the beginning of spring, I don't know what will happen by then.

This trip to Dingzhou can be regarded as a lifelong event, and Wang Du is very happy, and accompanied Li Qi to visit his library with great interest.

Most of the books in the royal capital were purchased from the former ministers of the Tang Dynasty in Luoyang, and many of them were rare and rare books that were circulated in the Royal Hongwen Museum. After browsing it, Li Qi was also very interested, and asked Wang Du if he could send someone over to transcribe a few copies, but Wang Du didn't have the mouth to agree.

In the original history, after the city of Dingzhou was broken by Li Siyuan, the royal capital set fire to the tower and burned himself together with the tens of thousands of books for burial, which is a pity......
