Chapter 33 Empress Wu first touched the government

In the fifth year of Xianqing (660 AD), the third day of the eleventh month of winter, three o'clock in the afternoon.

After more than half a month of sailing, the Korean Peninsula Expeditionary Force finally landed on the Shandong Peninsula in late September. Laizhou set off from the mountains, went west along the official road, and the soldiers of the two prefectures of Zilai returned to their respective homes along the way. The onions were peeled layer by layer, leaving the Shandong Peninsula, and the army was left with 50,000.

By the end of October, when they entered Daoluo Prefecture, Henan, there were only 30,000 Shenqiu troops left. Li Zhi and his wife were in Luoyang, and the soldiers in Guanzhong returned to Guannei Road, leaving only more than 2,000 guards. On the day of Wuxu in November, that is, on the first day of the new year, a grand ceremony was held outside the gate of heaven in Luoyang Palace.

Su Dingfang, Liu Boying, Wu Kang and other generals were all dressed in military uniforms and escorted the captives to pay tribute: Baekje King Buyeo Yici, Baekje Prince Buyeo Long, second son Buyeo Tai, etc., 58 Baekje chieftains. Li Zhi was wearing a crown, and his reprimand was fierce, and he was completely pardoned.

Seal some idle official positions, and settle them in the Chang'an Daozheng Fang. Fuyu Yici and Duman, who can go to the door to play Go, can originally play fighting, the landlord, Ashina He Luxuan. Wu Kang guessed correctly, and in the second year of house arrest, he returned to the west.

More than 10,000 Baekje prisoners, and the men were assigned to serve as prisoners to contribute to the Tang Dynasty; The female is assigned to the palace and weaves silkworms for the palace. All kinds of technicians, or well-behaved, were pardoned by the imperial court, and all the wealthy merchants were rich.

Scattered thousands of family wealth, food and cloth to the Tang Army, a great good people. Amnesty for a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, give him dozens of acres of land, and arrange him to become a civil servant. The rest were reduced to slaves and maids, rewarded to meritorious generals, and started a sad life.

Jieren was lucky enough to become Wukang's slave and maid, and temporarily lived in Daozheng Fang. Jieren served as a soldier, organized into a ministry, and took care of the family; The little young woman with black teeth and jade serves Xiaoqing's daily life; Little Lori Jieming, to be a noisy scholar.

After dealing with the prisoners, he began to talk about meritorious deeds, and Li Jiulong was happy. The Shenqiu Dao East Road Expeditionary Force, up to the chief Su Dingfang, down to the ordinary Zhichong guards. For family members within three generations, all sins will be forgiven, except for the heinous.

those who are exiled abroad shall be pardoned and returned to the Central Plains; Those who are in prison are not guilty of their crimes, so they should go home for the New Year. In order to celebrate the whole world, give the world three days of drinking. All the people of the world can call friends and gather to drink for three days.

Su Dingfang destroyed the three kingdoms, all of them captured their lords, and the rewards were the most generous, becoming the biggest winners. There are countless gold and silver treasures, two-foot-long coral, and colorful pearls, and my colleagues are all red-eyed. His grandson, Su Qingjie's son, is an official and ready to be around.

Wu Kang was the second winner, dismissed the general of Zuo Qianniu Mansion and promoted the general of Zuo Qianniu Mansion. General of the Sixteenth Guard, the official general, and the military attache of the third grade. It's really exciting, enough to glorify the ancestors, and I almost fainted.

However, it is a pity that among the sixteen guards of the Southern Ya, Qianniu Mansion and the prison guards are not far away from leading the government soldiers. the left and right prison guards, the emperor's guard guards; Left and right Qianniu Mansion, the emperor's personal bodyguard. Described in modern terms, that is, the Central Guard Regiment, the General of the Thousand Cows, the Commander-in-Chief of the Guard Regiment.

Li Zhi personally wrote the edict, "The Book of Wukang Zuo Qianniufu General Wen", the content of which is as follows: Chang Ren Long, Zhou Lu forbidden to cut, loyal and virtuous, and excellent Tao. Weier Zuo Qianniufu General, Jinhua County Founding Father, Zhu Guo Wukang, Zhili Shen Ji, Sentiment Refreshing. The early marking of the art of Qizheng, the skill of the patrol police.

Yansha giant sea, Gongxuan six leopards, air pressure three Han. The effect of folding is heard, and the responsibility of melon teeth is important. The style of the domain is fierce, and the guard is Chen. It is the life of Er, the general of Zuo Qianniufu, and the honor is the same. Erqi thinks about it, there is no waste, and it is not safe to send, but it is not careful!

Wu Kang studied it three times, savored the meaning, and thought it was a compliment. The next reward, continuing the true nature of the pit man, only gave a list of gold and silver treasures. Emperor Li Jiu's meaning: My sister Xincheng got married, you are old friends, those gold and silver treasures, give her a dowry.

This basin of cold water is poured, I really want to hug my head and cry, you brothers and sisters are too pitiful. When Baekje was fighting, Shuyu wrote me a debt collection letter through Su Dingfang and asked for a dowry. These gold and silver treasures were originally intended to be added to her box, but Li Jiujie was the first to board, and she had to prepare again.

When she went home at the end of the court, Xiaoqing learned the good news and was almost crazy with joy. Arrange a banquet with flowing water, invite neighbors to celebrate the rise of the husband. Wu Kang cautiously, took out the white slips, and explained timidly. The daughter-in-law smiled and smiled, the bedroom was closed at night, and she went to sleep in the study.

Very bad, sleepless all night, cursing Li Jiu, not a good death. Early this morning, it was even worse, and Xincheng sent people to ask for a dowry. Sad face, where to raise money, not in the mood to eat breakfast. He can't move, and he can't take it from home, and he will be restless.

I can't talk to the queen, take my sister's private money, and add a box to my old lover, I still want to be faced. After racking his brains, he thought of a bad idea and asked Su Dingfang for help. Borrow him a thousand times first, and then save money and use pocket money to pay off debts.

Putting away the debt collection letter, Qian Shun hurriedly reported: "Someone has come to the palace, it is the eunuch Wang Fusheng, who brought the saint's message." This old puppet can be said to be not in oil and salt, and all gifts are accepted according to the list, and all the banquets are politely refused. If you don't do anything about receiving gifts, do you want to treat him? ”

With the gesture of wiping his neck, Wu Kang shook his head decisively, pondered for a moment and said: "Give up Wang Fusheng, don't be a killer, we can't afford it." He has a deep relationship with the saint, is an absolute confidant, and will not be filial to the queen. Shift the target, attack Li Deguan, and do your best to win over. ”

After finishing speaking, leaving the study, Qian Shun followed suit, and said in a low voice: "Li Deguan has a nephew, who runs a small shop and does a cloth business. When he returned to Chang'an, his subordinates informed Zhao Sheng that the all-day monitoring should be rewarding. ”

Wu Kang is too lazy to ask, I don't have to worry about you doing things, let it go. came to the gate, greeted Wang Fusheng, and got Li Jiu's message. The couple temporarily decided to patrol the Xuzhou Martial Arts Platform, escort Zuo Qianniu Mansion, and set off at the end of the day. Xuzhou is Xuchang, and Wutai is in Linying County (Henan Luohe Linying), which was originally called Shangshutai. About the second year of Xianqing, Li Jiu paraded there and renamed it Jiangwutai. It seems to be about 400 miles away from Luoyang Palace.

Wu Kang promised to take two gold leaves and send Wang Fusheng. I'm very depressed, I just came back from the expedition, and I haven't felt comfortable for a few days, and you're going to make trouble. Tomorrow, I have to work overtime again to find the commander of the Beiya Hundred Cavalry to determine the round-trip route.

Looking at Wang Fusheng's back, ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, I will kill you sooner or later. Turning around and entering the door, Qian Shun stepped forward and reported in a low voice: "In two quarters of an hour, it will be time to practice martial arts." The gong formation of the martial arts arena is ready, is it going to be canceled? ”

Wu Kang didn't hear it, shook his head slightly, his fist didn't leave his hand, and Wu couldn't be wasted. After pondering for a moment, he instructed Qian Shun: "Go find Chu Shenke, Zhao Sheng and Pinglang, and you will study together." Luoyang to Linying, find the best route, and come up with a report as soon as possible. Inform all the brothers, follow Zuo Qianniu Mansion, and protect the queen's safety. ”

Qian Shun Nuo prepared, Wu Kang returned to the bedroom, and his daughter-in-law was embroidering mandarin ducks. Quietly hug her, have a French kiss, and then come to the romantic wall. Xiao Qing panted, hugged her husband's neck, and said in a snort: "Husband honestly, have you had a relationship with the young woman Hei Tooth Jade?" ”

This is the settlement of accounts after the autumn, Wu Kang shook his head decisively, and swore to promise: "I have always counted when I speak, and I will not have a relationship with other women." I said little daughter-in-law, the saint withholds the reward, we can't help it, don't be angry anymore. Now tell me, after crossing the sea and setting out, is there anything interesting to happen? ”

Xiao Qing pursed her lips, still sullen: "In mid-September, the saint visited Li Tao and rewarded him with a tomb. By the beginning of October, the acting Mrs. Yang was renamed Mrs. Rongguo. Mrs. Zhengyi Pinguo, who is above the prince's mother and wife, is so envious. ”

It's a false name, there is nothing to envy, Wu Kang was very disdainful, and said softly: "She is the queen's mother, and she is also our aunt, and your Mrs. Chu can only be under it." Let's not talk about this for a while, if you think about it, what else is going on? ”

Xiao Qing's eyes flashed, her expression began to be weird, she raised her eyes to look out of the door, and said in a low voice: "I visited the Yang family that day, maybe something happened suddenly, and I found Helan Minzhi." In Yang's bedroom, he was untidy and his hair was messy. When they saw me, they bowed their heads and ran away, I doubted them..."

The meaning is self-evident, Wu Kang scoffed, it seems that history is correct, Min Zhi and Yang have a relationship of civil strife. That old witch, at such an old age, still doesn't stop. complained in his heart and explained to his daughter-in-law: "Their family is very messy, let's stay away, just don't know." ”

Xiao Qing nodded obediently, and Wu Kang continued: "In two days, the Holy Driver is fortunate to be in Xuzhou, where my duty lies, and I must follow. Dear daughter-in-law, be obedient at home, spend more time with our daughter. I'll go to the martial arts arena, and if anyone is looking for me, send someone to inform me. ”

It's going to be separated again, Xiaoqing is unhappy, and Wu Kang is helpless. came to the martial arts arena, took the Qianniu knife, and walked into the gong array. The black cloth blindfolded him, and he stood up and nodded slightly. Qian Liang gave orders, and the guards flocked to him.

Soon everyone was in place, with a drumstick in his hand, Qian Liang shouted to start and beat the gong array. The gongs sounded in all directions, the sound was chaotic, and Wu Kang tensed his nerves and listened attentively. In less than two minutes, the evil wind behind him was not good, and he immediately turned around and swung his knife.

Feeling the slight resistance, the heavy object smashed under his feet, and the side attacked again, slashing the blade again. The sound of the gong became more and more intense, and the feeling became more sensitive, and the blade of the knife galloped, slashing at the surrounding targets. Suddenly, his back was smashed, the sound of the gong stopped abruptly, and there was silence all around.

Wu Kang sighed, ripped off the blindfold, and held a thousand knives in his hand. Scanning in all directions, nine hogs were hung, eight were cut off, and the ground was full of pork. Turning to look behind him, there was a complete pig, as if mocking. couldn't help but sink his face, the limit of the nine heads still couldn't be broken.

The atmosphere began to be depressed, and the security guards were silent, some trembling. Qian Liang scratched his head and said cautiously: "Don't be angry, big guy, if I come to cut it, I will be disturbed by the sound of gongs, and I will not be killed." You cut off eight heads in a row, which is already commendable. ”

Wu Kang was noncommittal, and overheard the immature child's voice, it was the girl who ran this way, and Jieming followed. Dancing like a happy elf. The black cloth was thrown to Qian Liang, and the Qianniu knife was given to Jieren, and he left Causeway Town in a flash.

Picked up the baby, spun around a few times, and made her giggle. pinched the little chubby face, and said with a matter: "The eyebrows and eyes have grown, inherit your aunt, and you are also a beauty." Whispered to Daddy, don't study in the study, what are you running out for? ”

Laughing and grinning, hugging her neck and coquettishly: "Auntie's task has been completed, and the processing is breathable." Daddy is amazing, blindfolded, can behead eight pigs in a row in the gong array. Teach me too, make trouble and want to learn martial arts, and fight on the battlefield in the future. ”

I almost choked to death, my precious girl, I can't be Mulan. Laughing and reasoning, the girl immediately pouted and broke free from her father's arms. From Jieming's hand, he took the wooden horizontal knife, raised his little face and said, "Daddy, teach me quickly, people really want to learn." ”

I feel very helpless, I look aggrieved, and I can't bear to refuse. Qian Liang approached and handed over the iron horizontal knife. Wu Kang held the handle of the knife and said softly: "Since the girl wants to learn, Daddy will naturally teach." But you have to remember that practicing martial arts to strengthen your body, don't think about being a general, that's a man's business. ”

The trouble was very dissatisfied, the wooden knife was given to Jieming, and he broke his hands and counted down: "Li Xianggong's sixth mother, Xu Xianggong's eighth mother, and Mr. Su's granddaughter, all say that you are a general." If you make trouble, you will also be a general, and if you go into battle to kill the enemy in the future, you will also have to protect your family and defend the country. ”

This girl is hopeless, Wu Kang rolled his eyes, too lazy to talk nonsense. Pull out the stance, step with your feet, and dance slowly with a horizontal knife. Play some flower boxing and embroidered legs, the movement is slower than Tai Chi, and you should coax a child. The excitement is very strong, dancing the wooden horizontal knife, and imitating happily.

has learned well, Wu Kang has more headaches, and has the potential of a female man. In the wide martial arts arena, the security guards stood aside, watching the father and daughter playing with knives, and couldn't help but smile. Especially Jieren, seeing that his beloved daughter also imitated, more like the little lady, he smiled happily.

I don't know how long it took, but there was a laugh from behind, and the voice was familiar. Wu Kang turned around and saw that it was Mei Niang and Xiaoqing, as well as Zhengtai Li Xian. As soon as I wanted to say hello, I heard my daughter scream. Throw away the wooden knife in his hand, raise his foot and kick behind him, and pose as a lady.

Jiao's laughter started again, Wu Kang pulled down his face, this girl was not saved. went over to say hello, saluted his aunt in a noisy manner, leaned next to Li Xian, and said softly: "Cousin Luwang, what are you doing, don't come to play with me." I miss you very much, and I dream of you when I sleep. ”

Wu Kang's face is even darker, and he is embarrassed, Li Xian is only five years old, and he is a cousin. Xiaoqing was also embarrassed, Mei Niang smiled and seemed to enjoy it. Li Xian was very scared, called his uncle weakly, hung his head and didn't dare to look at each other, and said timidly: "I also dreamed of you, just last night." ”

Count your kid acquaintance, Wu Kang saved face, and his face looked much better. Mei Niang was in a good mood, rolled her eyes and joked: "Kang Lang is almost thirty, and he still eats his nephew's vinegar, which is embarrassing." It's the best to make a little fuss, take your cousin to the playhouse, and give your father to me. ”

Xiaoqing knew it, so she made trouble with one hand and Li Xian with the other, and went to the playground to play. didn't take a few steps, Li Xian whispered: "Grandpa told me that women should be gentle and not dance with knives and guns." Don't learn martial arts if you make trouble, grandpa doesn't like it. ”

Wu Kang's eyes widened, staring at Xiao Li Xian, wanting to raise his sword and fall. What are you to teach my daughter a lesson, believe it or not I'll beat you. Which green onion is your father, call him to me, and Nai Weng will beat you father and son.

The troublemaker nodded obediently, and said with a sense of matter: "My cousin is right, I don't want to play with knives, and I don't want to be a general." Daddy has to teach me, saying that it can strengthen the body, which is really annoying. Don't worry, cousin, I won't touch it in the future. ”

I was so angry that I almost vomited blood, this unlucky girl, buried Lao Tzu like this, and she was completely hopeless. The security guard couldn't help laughing, Mei Niang smiled, and her little appearance was very proud: "It seems that your family is making trouble, and I like my virtuous child very much." ”

Wu Kang was furious, brushed his sleeves away, and rushed back to the study angrily. Sitting on the Taishi chair, the grimace is black into the bottom of the pot, and the female university is not left. The black tooth jade was cautious, put the hot tea on the desk, and stood next to it with her head bowed.

In less than five minutes, Mei Niang walked in, her eyes full of banter, and motioned for Xiaoyu to leave. Closed the door of the study, tapped Kang Lang's forehead, and reprimanded angrily: "General Qianniufu, don't be childish, what do you look like?" ”

This is to show off his might, Wu Kang turned his back and didn't bother to take care of her. Mei Niang didn't care, sat across the desk, pursed her lips and said: "The main squad of Shenqiu Dao, Liu Renyuan has few generals, and the rest of the Baekje Party rebels." On September 23, the rebellion spread throughout the country, and the response was twenty cities. ”

When I heard this, I turned my head in disbelief. In less than half a minute, I couldn't help but sigh that Liu Renyuan was in a bad situation. Mei Niang squeezed her eyebrows, raised her orchid fingers, and her words were full of teasing: "There are more battle reports, if Kang Lang wants to hear it, he will blink his left eye three times." ”

Wu Kang scoffed, you are thirty-six years old, not eighteen years old, what kind of innocence is pretending. Entangled for a moment, he couldn't resist the temptation, and he had no choice but to throw three flattering eyes. Mei Niang was very satisfied and opened the conversation: "On September 23, Shazha is similar and black-toothed Changzhi will break through the outer city of Sixian. ”

It's black tooth again, and I already knew that he wasn't a fuel-efficient lamp. Siyu City was besieged, and the military rations were definitely insufficient, and Liu Ren was willing to have a headache. The brain turned quickly, and finally shook his head helplessly, combined with the defense of Si Xian City, there was no good way to retreat from the enemy.

Mei Niang continued: "The rebels looted supplies and continued to attack the inner city. Liu Renyuan, the old general, the 10,000 Tang Luo coalition army, after hard fighting, repelled the black tooth Changzhi. After the defeat and retreat of the Black Tooth, five military fences were built in the south ridge of Siyu City. Continue to besiege Si Hyeon, waiting for an opportunity to plunder the city. ”

Wu Kang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Si Hyun was not broken, there was no hope for Baekje to recover. Liu Renyuan is an old general, quite capable, and worthy of being a fierce general. Suddenly thinking of something, he asked impatiently: "General Wang Wendu, why don't you go to the rescue, is it really sick?" ”

Mei Niang was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "On September 28, General Wang arrived at Sanwen Chengshan and canonized Jin Chunqiu, the king of Silla, in accordance with the will of the imperial court. During the ceremony, General Wang suddenly died violently, and his entourage completed the canonization. ”

Hearing that, it was like being struck by lightning, the crow's mouth came true, and Wang Wendu died suddenly, which was not the right time. I didn't have time to regret it, and continued to ask: "Then what, did Jin Chunqiu lead the army, and did he support Liu Renyuan?" Who did the imperial court send to succeed General Wang? ”

Mei Niang replied, "The coalition forces broke through Erli Fortress, the rebellious Baekje Fortress, and then surrendered to Silla. The coalition forces continued to attack, and Hei Yachang was defeated and retreated, and the siege of Si Hyun was resolved. At this time, General Liu had joined forces with Xiong Jin's soldiers. The sage enabled Liu Renliang, inspected the school with Fangzhou Assassin History, and replaced Wang Wendu to lead the army. ”

Liu Renliang appeared on the stage, and Wu Kang was lacking in interest. He was at odds with Su Dingfang, and in the future, he soared and squeezed out Lao Su everywhere. Later, he also revised the history of the country, and overcorrected it, greatly changing the history of the old Soviet Union. This is a communiqué personal vendetta, and the character is quite bad.

Mei Niang gazed affectionately, held Wu Kang's hand, squeezed her eyebrows and said, "In the middle of last month, the saint was suddenly dizzy, and his eyes couldn't see. In order not to affect the government, he even asked me to help and read the chapter to manage political affairs. My sister is very happy, really happy. ”

Wu Kang was stunned again, you have no heart and no lungs, Li Jiu is your husband. He has a genetic outbreak, you should be sad, don't gloat. But then again, it's really exciting. The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and soon I laughed out loud of a pig...
