History of the Wuzhou Assassin Chapter 23 The initiator of King Teng's Pavilion

In the fifth year of Yonghui (654 AD), September 13, two quarters of Chen.

Outside the south gate of Haozhou City, on the official road leading to Hongzhou (Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province), a large group of people and horses walked slowly. The Mingguang armored cavalry opened the way, and the silk armor sword soldiers followed, and there were luxurious carriages. The car was painted with cyan azusa paint, yellow with red tarpaulin, and two red ropes hung on the curtain.

The queue was huge, and pedestrians avoided it. Ordinary people know that only the emperor's relatives can ride a car of this specification. There was a young man sitting in the car, holding a delicate Spring Palace picture album, looking at it with relish. He is about twenty-five years old, with a delicate little white face, and wears the usual clothes of a prince.

This person's name is Li Yuanying, the twenty-second son of Gaozu Li Yuan, and the twenty-second brother of President Li Er. At the beginning of the Xuanwumen coup, Lao Li became the honorary president, and took revenge on Li Er for disgust, hiding in the harem to create people. After he died, Li Er had a headache with his younger brothers, so he drove them all to other places, out of sight and out of mind.

Li Yuanying, who was only nine years old, was named Teng Wang Shilu Tengzhou, that is, Teng County in Xuzhou. King Teng was an artist, arrogant and lascivious, and built a lot of buildings, which caused the anger of the local people. Li Jiu couldn't stand it and demoted him to Suzhou; The dog can't change the eating of, and in July this year, he degraded Hongzhou again and became the governor of Hongzhou.

Li Yuanying doesn't care, she has no intention of politics, and she loves piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. After reading the album in his hand, he was bored lying down, thinking about going to Hongzhou and building another Tengwang Pavilion. When the time comes, I will exhibit my paintings, and then invite literati and scholars to write a few prefaces to King Teng's Pavilion, and my life will be complete.

While longing for a better life, I suddenly heard the woman crying, crying like a complaint of pity. The artists are all emotional, and they feel sorry for the fragrance and get up and shout for the parking team. I sent the old housekeeper to inquire, and a few minutes later I reported that the young woman was crying bitterly on the side of the road, and asked her not to answer anything.

Li Yuanying became interested, got off the carriage under the curtain, and looked up at the source of the sound. On the edge of the haystack of the threshing floor on the east side of the road, a woman squatting in silk covered her face with her slender hands and buried her head in her knees. His hair was messy, stained with stalks, and he was like burying his father, crying heartbreakingly.

There was a black horse beside him, with a shiny black coat and no stray hair. He kept rubbing the woman's hair in a bun with his huge horse's head, as if to comfort her. Look carefully at the dark horse, the pupils are huge and shining, a good BMW. The body is like a city wall, the four hooves are thick and strong, and the mane is straight and straight. King Teng is also a horse lover, and the idea of acquisition came to him and sent the guards to question.

The ironclad guard stepped forward, and when he was far away from the woman, the black horse suddenly went berserk. Raising his head to the sky and roaring, he stopped in the middle, and his front hooves jumped up, and the guard collapsed in an instant. His front hooves hit the ground heavily, stepping under the guard's crotch, and he screamed in fright.

King Teng applauded, this horse is humane and loyally protecting the Lord. Make a decision immediately, no matter how many copper coins, you have to buy them. Looking at the woman again, I couldn't help frowning, I can wear silk and satin, and I can ride such a BMW, it must be either rich or expensive, why is it difficult to fall here?

Thinking of this step, the black horse stopped. Sure that it would not attack, while breathing a sigh of relief, he coughed dryly twice and asked, "Why is the little lady crying, can you tell me?" In the Governor of Xiahongzhou, he can call the shots for you. ”

The woman looked up slowly, and the two looked at each other dumbfounded. Li Yuanying grinned, her face was full of disbelief, and she suddenly jumped to her feet: "Xincheng niece, why are you here, why are you so sad?" Which bastard bullied you... What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and help the princess up! ”

The guards turned around and ran, and the convoy was in an uproar, and countless maidservants jumped out of the car and hurried over to serve. Xincheng was sure that it was not a dream, and shouted "Uncle Teng Wang", choked up and couldn't speak. Thinking of what happened these days, I cried out loud from my heart and vented all my grievances.

Li Yuanying was distressed, the princess of the new city of the Tang Dynasty, the little niece of the king, how could she fall into such a field. I couldn't help it anymore, jumped up and scolded the street, my facial features were distorted, and I pointed at the captain of the guard and roared: "Take all the guards, find the bastard who bullied Xincheng, first cut him with a thousand knives, and then punish him for the nine clans!" ”

The chief of the guard is confused, it can be cut with a thousand knives, and it is okay to punish the nine clans, so you have to know who it is. The old butler hurried over, whispered in a low voice, and finally persuaded the master. King Teng's face was red and his neck was thick, and he temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart, and comforted Xincheng with his maidservant.

After about half an hour, the niece's mood finally stabilized, and King Teng instructed the servant to clean up the frame. Remove the albums, put on clean bedding, and get ready for refreshments. A few grandmothers were busy, tidying up the princess, removing the straw from the bun, and going back to the car to change clean clothes.

Ordered everyone to stay away, instructed the guards to be on guard, and with the permission of his niece, King Teng entered the car. Xincheng stabilized his emotions and told the ins and outs, no matter how big or small. Including how the food team was attacked, how he got out of danger, and why he cried, he burst into tears again.

After escaping that day, there was only one thought in his heart, to move the rescue soldiers to save Wu Kang. Ran all the way to Haozhou City, went straight to Haozhou Yamen, and asked to see the history of Haozhou. However, the problem came, the seal that could prove the identity fell in the carriage, and it was useless to see the assassination.

I was anxious for a while, and suddenly remembered that there was a white jade match rewarded by Aya in my pocket. Only the emperor and empress can wear pure white jade pendants, this is the common sense of the Tang Dynasty, and the history of the assassin must understand. The problem came again, the two janitors, who had never seen the world, did not recognize the jade pendant and did not give a report.

In a hurry, she turned around, in order to move troops to save her life, she begged bitterly regardless of her face, but the officials still ignored her. Later, there was an old man who sold vegetables, and he felt that she was pitiful, so he told the truth. The official is very black, and if he does not have enough money to buy a road, he will not report it.

Xincheng was penniless, and those two silver ingots were used to smash Wukang. His eyes were red for a while, and he gritted his silver teeth with hatred, blaming the one who killed a thousand knives, if it weren't for your obscene words, he wouldn't have smashed it with a silver ingot. Bastard, you wait for me, wait for this matter to be understood, if you don't drip with wax, ten tortures are waiting.

Depressed, I searched all over my body, and I didn't have any valuable objects, so I had no choice but to use it as a bun and a gold comb. The comb can not only comb the hair, but also the most common headdress, except for his husband, can not be touched by other men, can only be sold or pawned.

Finally, I realized that the merchant was treacherous, and the priceless gold comb was only given half a copper coin. ran through all the pawnshops, and gave a maximum of 550 Wen, but he had no choice but to do it. went out with copper coins, and was targeted by several scoundrels, and the money bag was snatched away by them.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and Xincheng burst into tears, squatting in the corner of the wall to hide his face and cry. It is called that the heavens should not be, that the earth is not spiritual, and the tears of more than 20 years are all crying out today. However, the problem could not be solved, the hunger in the stomach was unbearable, and the spirit was forced to find food.

Even for the sake of the child in the belly, you have to fill your belly. finally pulled down his face and went to the restaurant to beg, and was directly blasted out by the tavern doctor. After repeatedly hitting a wall, it was the old vegetable seller who gave her an idea to go to Jing'an Temple for help.

It was a nunnery, and when Mrs. Shi saw that she was dressed extraordinarily, she arranged room and board. Temporarily solve the problem of food and clothing, continue to ask to see the assassin Shi, the yamen hit the wall several times, so he changed the route to the assassin's mansion. I learned from the gatehouse that Qin Tingshi and the literati of Haozhou went to Qihua Mountain to celebrate the Double Ninth Festival and came back three days later.

After three days, I visited again, and the assassin came back, but the porter didn't give a report. Xincheng cried urgently, and had no money to buy the road, so he could only beg bitterly. As the saying goes, the prime minister's door is a seven-grade official, and the assassin's gatehouse is even more arrogant.

If you don't get any benefits, your attitude will be even worse, and in the end, you will let the vicious dog bite you. Xincheng was caught off guard, Bai Yupei was broken, and the glass heart was also broken. Without a jade pendant as a token, it's useless to see the history of the assassination, people don't believe that you are a princess. For a while, all thoughts were lost, and it was decided to leave Haozhou and hurry to Chang'an to move troops.

However, the reality is very skinny, and it is impossible to move an inch without pennis, and you will starve to death within three days. Staying overnight in the dilapidated land temple, stealing offerings from the offering table, and almost being insulted by the scoundrels, fortunately Dou Cheng trampled them to death. Frightened all night, he hurried away at dawn.

Sleepy in a trance, he fell directly from the horse's back and fell into the roadside ditch. Fortunately, there was straw in the ditch, which the farmer used to ferment manure, otherwise he would have to fall to his death. Completely heartbroken, I had the idea of suicide, and it happened that there was a well in the threshing floor...

At the moment of jumping into the well, Dou Cheng grabbed his collar and couldn't die if he wanted to. In desperation, the threshing floor wept. There is no endless road, and it is also a coincidence that there is no book, Li Yuanying served as the governor of Hongzhou, and happened to pass by here. Attracted by the cry and BMW, there was a later encounter to avoid tragedy. Go to Audiobook.com

King Teng was furious, hit the roof of the car with the top of his head, and roared in pain: "Turn around and return to Haozhou, Taizong Yupei dares to break it, but it's against them." Chen Duwei and Liu Duwei arrested the history of Haozhou's assassination. The king intends to expedite the official document, and when the holy decree arrives, he will open the knife and behead. ”

Xincheng knew that it was disrespectful to break Taizong's jade pendant. Although he hated Haozhou Assassin History, he was more worried about Wu Kang, and he couldn't persuade him impatiently: "Uncle Wang, you are angry, now is not the time, let Haozhou Assassin Shi transfer troops first, and rescue the grain team and Wu Kang." ”

"What to save? There is no need to save it", King Teng gritted his teeth: "If you lose the court Tianfu, you will have a wine bag and a rice bag, and you will be left to fend for yourself; If you hadn't met me, how would you have lived? Wu Yu's crime is not punishable, and I will sue him for a case. ”

Xincheng hurriedly explained that what could have been avoided was that I forced him to save people, and it was all my fault. King Teng couldn't listen to it, and Wang Ba ate the scales and became hard-hearted, shouting that Wu Kang would be killed. The guards did not dare to disobey, and the convoy immediately turned around and went straight to Haozhou City.

At this point, Xincheng's heart was like a knife, full of guilt and self-blame. Seeing that Uncle Wang's oil and salt did not enter, he also let it go: "Xincheng doesn't persuade Uncle Wang, if you want to sue, just sue." Pity the child in my womb, I didn't have a father before I was born, and our mother's life is miserable..."

King Teng was stunned, what did he mean by this, and he reacted for a while. This is embarrassing, as a child of the royal family, knowing the virtues of the princesses, they have long been numb. But Xincheng is different, knowing her as a person, she has always been clean and self-loving. Since marrying the eldest grandson, she has always been a model of a princess, without any gossip, why...

I don't know why, if this is true, the plan must change. Eyes roll a few times, bad ideas come to me, and I look out the window. After making sure that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and said, "You are all adults, and my uncle is inconvenient to ask, so I can assume that I don't know... That horse is his, it looks pretty good, it's a rare good horse! ”

The meaning is self-evident, begging for hush money. Xincheng was entangled for a moment, and shook his head decisively: "Dou Cheng can't give it to you, he is not only a war horse, but also Wu Kang's brother, saving his life several times." I was able to escape this time, and thanks to Dou Cheng, I can't give it to Uncle Wang. ”

King Teng couldn't help but feel sorry, and he also felt that it was normal, and BMW was hard to find. However, it would be a pity to give up on this, and the bamboo pole still has to be knocked. After pondering for a moment, he first clarified the seriousness of the situation: "The eldest grandson's family is very powerful, if this matter is leaked, Wu Yu will definitely die." ”

Xincheng pursed his lips and said nothing, it was indeed the case, the ninth brother couldn't bear the pressure. Aya maintained Fang Xuanling's face and beheaded Sister Gao Yang's lover; The ninth brother will maintain the face of the eldest grandson's family, and he will also give Wu Kang to death. Forcibly calm down, sullenly look at Uncle Wang, don't beat around the bush.

King Teng was very embarrassed, coughed dryly and said: "Uncle Wang once built King Teng's Pavilion and the palace pavilion in Teng County, Xuzhou. But the sage transferred me to Hongzhou, and I was depressed along the way, and I never saw King Teng Pavilion again, so I missed it very much. ”

The fake look, which provoked the disdain of Xincheng, pondered for a moment and replied: "Kang Lang has a lot of money, if Uncle Wang builds a pavilion in Hongzhou, he will definitely help." At that time, I will join him in begging Luo Bingwang for an iron pen to preface your new Tengwang Pavilion. ”

King Teng smiled: "It's still Xincheng who understands me, and when Hongzhou settles down, I will start to build a pavilion." I have chosen the address, it is on the bank of the Ganjiang River in Zhongling County, and it is estimated that there is a shortage of some copper coins... Let Wu Yu come out. I've heard of Luo Bing Wang, the poem is very good, I don't know how the prose is? ”

Xincheng was not happy to be called "Wu Yu": "Uncle Wang, don't be a martial artist, he is a good official." I was in the Haozhou Yamen and the Thorn History Mansion, and I was repeatedly harassed by the officials and the porter, but Wuzhou is different. Even if the beggar asks to see Wu Kang, whether it is the state government or the assassin's mansion, the subordinates will report it. As for Mr. Luo, don't worry, there are few people in the world who can surpass him. ”

King Teng laughed dryly twice, and closed his mouth, nothing was as important as King Teng's Pavilion. It is said that Wu Yu is very rich, Chang'an Red Sorghum Wine Workshop, even if he gave it to Wu Zhaoyi. This king doesn't want to be a part, and he asks for some copper money to build an attic, so he shouldn't refuse, right?

If Wu Kang was here, he would definitely agree. The so-called Zhongling County, that is, Jinxian County, Nanchang, Jiangxi, where Tengwang Pavilion is located. Such a grand event must be generous. After all, without Tengwang Pavilion, there would be no "Preface to Tengwang Pavilion", which is a big regret in the literary world. Written by Luo Bingwang, you can also consider it, they are all the four masters of the early Tang Dynasty!

At about seven o'clock in the morning, the convoy arrived at Haozhou City, and the uncle and nephew went straight to Haozhou Ya. The new city swept away the decadence of the past, and the majestic and high-spirited accepted the worship of all officials. First expelled the guards, and then shook out the matter of the jade pendant, the frightened Qin Thorn Shi Lao burst into tears, kowtowing like garlic and begging for forgiveness.

The jade pendant is the imperial treasure of Taizong, and if it is investigated, it will be a great disrespect among the "ten evils". The porter will be sentenced to hanging, and he will also be implicated in the assassination, and he will be exiled for at least 2,000 miles. Lao Qin was scared to pee, and begged for the grace of Xincheng and Prince Teng.

After talking about business, Xincheng made a condition: the concierge let the dog bite the princess, causing Taizong's jade pendant to be broken, and he must be sentenced to hanging. As for whether to continue to investigate, it depends on the performance of Qin Thorn History. Wuzhou Tianfu was robbed in Haozhou, as long as the Wuzhou grain officer is rescued and all Tianfu is recovered, he can not be blamed for the past.

Qin Thorn Shi Rumeng was granted amnesty, and immediately summoned all the officials and requisitioned the militia of Zhongli County, saying that even if he dug three feet into the ground, he had to complete the task. The three guards of the law and the government came out together, cooperated with King Teng's guards, and carried out a carpet search in the area within a radius of 100 miles with the place of the accident as the center.

There was no progress for two days, and the anxious new city was turned; Finally, on the morning of the sixteenth, there was a breakthrough, and red embroidered shoes were found in the irrigation ditch next to the official road. With a clear direction, he soon found a second one eighty miles away, in the bushes of Moming Mountain.

Xincheng was ecstatic and asked to go into the mountains to search, and Qin Tingshi had a bitter face. The people of Haozhou know that where is the deep mountains and old forests, there are countless beasts and poisonous insects, and they have always been inaccessible. There is even more terrifying, Mo Ming Mountain and three other mountains, surrounded by a valley bottom, in which there are powerful ghosts and ghosts. Anyone who goes in has never come out, and it is a forbidden place in Haozhou.

King Teng slapped the table directly, you can't help it, you must go in and search, and you must keep my God of Wealth. Qin Thorn Shi had no choice but to compromise and requisitioned the state's militia, totaling more than 20,000 people. It is expected that the assembly will be completed in two days, and it will officially set off on the 19th to save people from Moming Mountain.

When it comes to this, Xincheng has nothing to do, she is just a princess, and she has reached the limit. If it weren't for Aya Yupei, Qin Tingshi would not have listened to her, let alone dispatched troops. After dinner, the seconds were like years, and I was supported by the daughter of the assassin Shi and went for a walk outside the house.

Sent them away, looked at the full moon in the sky, stroked his lower abdomen and said to himself: The fifteenth moon and sixteenth round, eight days have passed, and the bastard who killed a thousand knives must have suffered a lot... However, his skin is rough and thick, and the pain of skin and flesh can't hurt him.

Xincheng is right, Wu Kang has suffered a lot of crimes, there is not much suffering from skin and flesh, and he is hungry every day. Four hundred and eighty militiamen, forty-six security guards, locked up in different dungeons. The dark dungeon, every day in reverie, Xincheng smashed my embroidered shoes, did it come in handy?

But smashing my two taels of silver ingots came in handy. Fortunately, he was clever at the time, stuffed into his boots, and was not taken away by the thieves. Successfully bribed the jailer, learned a lot of news, and got a general idea of the situation here. Surrounded by mountains, dense forests, jackals, tigers and leopards, poisonous smoke and miasma. Isolated from the world, it is difficult for outsiders to enter without a guide.

The basin is a plain, where more than 5,000 people live, similar to "The Story of the Peach Blossom Spring". However, Wu Kang has always scoffed at the paradise, which is equivalent to closing the country and not being able to enjoy the progress of science and technology and medical treatment. It's not good to say, it's a wild man who is struggling at the death line and can't eat.

According to the jailer, they came from nearby states and had fled here. Wu Kang knew that "escapes" also occurred in Wuzhou, but the number was relatively small. At present, the policy is the equalization of land, and anyone who has reached the age of 18 men can get 20 acres of Yongye field and 80 acres of land for the mouth. The imperial court collects rents according to the registered Dingkou.

With the annexation of land, men could not get a hundred acres, or even less than half, but they had to pay taxes on 100 acres. The people couldn't survive, so they naturally chose to flee and go to the deep mountains and old forests, and were forced to remember the Peach Blossom Spring. The foothold of the fugitives is basically surrounded by mountains, with some arable land in the middle.

Land annexation is a common problem of feudal dynasties, and it is not something I can solve. Wu Kang couldn't help laughing at himself, and suddenly heard the hurried footsteps, and the jailer hurriedly ran over, out of breath: It's a big deal, the owners have discussed it, and you will be killed tomorrow, and you will all be killed, and no one will be left...
