In the first year of Longshuo (661 AD), the tenth day of the tenth month of winter, two quarters of the hour.

Ziwei City of Luoyang Palace, officials above the fourth grade gathered in the Qianyang Hall to hold a criticism meeting, which Li Jiu personally presided over. The general of the right Wuwei, Zheng Rentai, the prince of Tong'an County, was wiped out in Mobei. This is the biggest defeat since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and it must be dealt with seriously.

The imperial historian Yang De is descendant, his mouth is full of firepower, and he counts the sins of Rentai. According to Tang Lu's deduction, he should be sentenced to death by hanging, at least dismissed from his post and investigated. Du Junqi and Li Mengwei united with the Xuanwu Friends Party and confronted it-for-tat. The sudden snowstorm in Mobei is not controllable by manpower, what is Rentai's crime?

Li Tao and Xu Yuanshi obviously stayed out of the matter; Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu said that it was none of their business; Wu Kang is lacking in interest, what do you like. Today he should be on duty, dressed in bright iron armor, holding a thousand oxen long knives, standing on the left side of the steps.

His expression is unusually serious, his ears are blocked from noise, and his eyes are not squinting. If you don't act as you like, I won't care. Yesterday, I went to the queen to report the situation of Yan Binlou, and she smiled. Zheng Rentai's allegiance is like sending charcoal in the snow, and with the support of the military, his ass is more stable.

Afterglow scanned the palace, his thoughts drifted away, and Wu Kang began to meditate: butt and head, who decides whom. In the past, Xiang Yu broke Qin, saw the grandeur of Afang Palace, scolded the first emperor for extravagance, and burned Afang with fire. However, it didn't take long for him to build a big palace, and the scale was not inferior to Ah Fang.

The Qianyang Hall at the foot was built by Emperor Yang of Sui, and Li Er was quite shocked when he broke through Luoyang. Pointing to the main hall and scolding Yang Guang: Show off your extravagance and exhaust the desires of the world, can the country not perish. So he burned the Qianyang Palace, and said to the people that the great Li Shimin was nobler than Emperor Yang of Sui.

However, in the third year of Zhenguan, he beat himself in the face and wanted to rebuild the Qianyang Palace, but was stopped by the ministers. In the eleventh year of Zhenguan, he was fortunate in Ziwei City, and heard that the second mother of the martial arts family was only fourteen years old, and she was born with a flower and a moon. So he had a lustful heart, accepted Mei Niang into the harem, and sealed a martial artist.

After getting the beauty, he wanted to cultivate Qianyang again, but he was stopped again. Until the first year of Xianqing, his successor Li Jiu helped him fulfill his long-cherished wish and rebuild the Qianyang Palace. From this, it is concluded that the butt determines the head, and this has always been the case. Burning the palace of the previous dynasty is to take it as a warning; It is a matter of course to build your own temple.

Time slipped away in a hurry, the criticism meeting ended, and Li Jiuli overrode public opinion and issued an edict to be extrajudicial. The old fox Zheng Rentai, from the right general of Wuwei, was demoted to the general of the left Wuwei. The title of Lord remains unchanged, and he will be fined another half a year, and he will think about it behind closed doors at home.

The third product has changed from the third product, and the general has become a lieutenant general, or it is too cheap for him. 14,000 elites, because of his greed for merit, died of cannibalism, and the 800 surviving people survived by eating human flesh. This kind of wine bag and rice bag should be swept to the end, and the province will harm others and yourself.

After dealing with Zheng Rentai, the court meeting continued to discuss the Tiele issue. In the end, the center decided that the general of Zuo Xiaowei, the Duke of Yuguo, He Li, was the pacification envoy of Tiele Dao; Jiang Ke, the general of the Left Guard, and Tiele Dao appeased the deputy envoy, marched to Mobei again, and appeased Tiele Jiu.

The prime minister drafted the edict, Li Jiuyu wrote Zhu approved, and issued it to the military department on the spot. The Ministry of Rites chose an auspicious day, and after praying in the Taimiao, the Ministry of War awarded Huang Yue. The general gets the official documents, receives the corresponding equipment, and goes through all the procedures, and then he can levy the government soldiers.

After the end of the military affairs, Li Jiu wanted to go hunting, and the main hall was full of opposition. The civil officials have advised that hunting costs the people and money, and His Majesty is not in good health, so please think twice before acting. Wu Kang hates a toothache, my sister has a ball in her belly, what are you running out to wave, isn't it good to stay at home?

Moreover, it is approaching the end of the year, the winter solstice day of the great court meeting, the first day of the great court meeting, various sacrificial events, and the Shangyuan Festival. For large and small activities, I want to be a personal guard, and I have been tired into two ha. Now that I want to hunt and add extra work, am I tired of becoming a Jingba, and you are satisfied?

Li Jiuli rejected public opinion, all opposition was invalid, and the ministers had nothing to do. After deliberation, it was decided to set off on October 20, and the location was selected in Luhun, which is Song County, Henan. But he is not enough, it is difficult to go out hunting, he must score twice, plus non-mountain.

The non-mountain is Songshan, which is also in the territory of Song County. The ministers sighed, and after the court meeting ended, they left in groups. Wu Kang caught up with Liu Xianli and gave him the blueprints of the Glaive Knife, you are the master craftsman who will be the supervisor, open a small stove for his brother, and build a few Glaive Knives.

Liu Xianli rolled his eyes, put the drawings into the calculation bag, and brushed his sleeves away. Wu Kanghun doesn't care, we are cellmates, don't be so cold. At this time, I found that in front of me, someone was striding a meteor, with an unusually burly figure and only one ear. Knowing who this person is, he immediately steps forward to catch up.

Qi Bi hurriedly walked to the gate of Zetian and heard a shout behind him. The voice was not very familiar, so he turned around to check, it was a big man in iron armor. Stunned for a moment, he bowed his hand, and his voice was rough: "Zuo Xiaowei Qibi He Li, I have seen General Wu, I don't know what advice I have?" ”

I don't dare to advise, I'm very rare with you, let's chatter. Wu Kang bowed and returned the salute, smiling harmlessly: "You and I haven't seen each other for half a year, and I miss the general very much, can we go together?" Regarding the surname Tiele Jiu, please ask for some questions, and please do not hesitate to give advice. ”

Qi Bi readily agreed, and the two walked together, chatting while walking. Half an hour passed, the atmosphere was still harmonious, and Wu Kang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The last time they marched to Yanran, there were many prisoners in the Tianshan Pit, including the Khibi people. Afraid that he would be upset, he deliberately eased the relationship.

Wu Kang has a good impression of Qi Bi He Li, he is brave in battle, and loyal. It was the Zhenguan period, he was captured by Tiele, cut off his left ear and swore that he would never betray the Tang Dynasty. In order to redeem him, Li Er made peace with Xue Yantuo and married the emerging princess.

Qibi was able to return to the court, worship the right general Xiaowei, be more loyal, and fight for the Tang Dynasty. When Li Er died, he and Ashinadur wanted to commit suicide and be buried and guard the mausoleum forever. Li Jiu sent someone to inform him that Taizong had a will and would not allow them to be martyred, so the two of them gave up.

Qi Bi also has a good impression of Wukang, and Xuzhou has lost all the generals in a row, which is admirable. usually has a low-key style, but once he goes to the battlefield, he becomes the number one madman in seconds, and he can not only command the three armies, but also fight on the front line. They are the same kind of people, and they naturally cherish each other.

Leaving Ziwei City and starting to talk about business, Wu Kang said lightly: "Facts have proven that iron-blooded suppression alone cannot solve the rebellion. Please forgive Wu Kang for taking the liberty of taking the liberty of the surname, what does the general think about the surname Tiele Jiu? What strategy was used in this Mobei march? ”

After thinking about it for a long time, he said what was in his heart: "The Tiele people rebelled, and the chief was the culprit. There is no need to make a big move, I will choose 500 elite horsemen, go directly into the Tianshan Mountains, and inform the tribes with nine surnames: The country knows that you are all coerced, and forgive your sins, the sin lies with the chief, and you will get it. ”

Wu Kang was dumbfounded, this is a one-handed meeting, you are so bold. After thinking about it for a long time, he nodded and said, "There is a seventy percent chance that the tribe will defect and spontaneously capture the chief and hand it over to the general to deal with." The old chieftain was cut down, the new chief was elected, and the temporary stability was ushered in. ”

Emphasizing the temporary, Wu Kang's words were conclusive: "The Tang Turks are in contention, Tiele is caught in the middle, and a choice must be made." They made the right choice and sent troops to assist the Tang Dynasty and jointly fight the Turks. They work hard and make great achievements, but the court rewards are small, and the capital protector still withholds, they must be dissatisfied. ”

The two stopped, Qi Bi He Li pondered, and Wu Kang gushed endlessly: In early October last year, Sijie suffered a snow disaster, and Ye Hu came to borrow food. Yan Ran protected the governor of the palace, not only did not borrow food, but also ridiculed in every way. When Liu Xianli learned of this, he immediately reported it to the imperial court, but fortunately it was dealt with in a timely manner and did not cause a major disaster.

General, you also know that the means of survival of the nine surnames are nomadism and hunting. In the process of trading, the officials of the Metropolitan Protectorate lowered the price of goods with nine surnames and raised the price of Han people's goods. The unfairness of the transaction and the oppression of the people with the surname Nine are the root causes of the rebellion.

Wu Kang secretly thought that the foreign strategy of this dynasty was obviously much tougher than that of the Taizong period. If you want to solve it completely, you must move the capital to the territory of the nine surnames. Only by protecting their interests and allowing them a high degree of autonomy can they achieve long-term peace and stability, does the general think so?

Qi Bi was noncommittal, and said lightly for a long time: "Moving to the capital to protect the mansion involves too much, I'm afraid it will be very difficult." The meaning of change is to let me go to the book, which can be considered. I will go to Mobei to appease, I will investigate carefully, and I will talk about it later. ”

Wu Kang happily thanked him, left Ziwei City, and went back to his own home. According to historical records, next year or the year after, the nine surnames will continue to rebel. It wasn't until Yanran Duhufu, migrated to Huiya, and changed its name to Hanhai Duhufu, that Mobei was completely stabilized.

It's useless to be anxious, let it be, the course of history does not change from person to person. In the following days, he enjoyed a corrupt life, practiced martial arts during the day, and fed his wives and concubines at night. Calculate the safety period, rely on your physical strength, and try to get as much rain and dew as possible.

On October 17, he set off; On October 20, Wu Kang accompanied the emperor to drive, and Song County participated in the hunt; On October 30, the saint drove back to Luoyang. In mid-November, their respective sacrificial activities were busy, and their feet did not touch the ground.

Living in a muddy way, sending away the Yuan Ri Shangyuan, ushering in the second year of Longshuo, there were joys and sorrows during the period. I am happy that I often enter the palace, take my wife and daughter to accompany the queen, and watch her belly bulge. The worry is that Wu Shun is a demon, with all the evidence expressions, she hooked up with Li Jiu.

They are very presumptuous, cheating on the location, transferred to the harem. Wu Kang was very entangled, visited Wu Shun several times, and knocked on the side of his words, almost directly picking it out. It's a pity that there is no use, the cheating continues, and she is restless. I really don't understand, whether she didn't understand it, or pretended not to understand.

In desperation, she decided to keep it a secret for the time being, Mei Niang held her stomach and couldn't affect her mood. After giving birth to Li Dan and finishing the confinement, we will discuss countermeasures. I really didn't dare to think about how sad she would be when she learned the truth.

In the first month of the second year of Longshuo, Stedu Belus was made king of Persia. Li Jiu once again showed off, convened hundreds of officials to discuss, and decided to change the official name. The ministers held meetings every day and discussed for more than half a month, and finally determined the official name and promulgated the edict to the world.

Menxia Province is Dongtai, Zhongshu Province is Xitai, Shangshu Province is Zhongtai, and Yushitai is Xiantai; The servant is the left phase, the middle book order is the right phase, the servant shoots the Kuang Zheng, and the left and right Cheng are the suji; Shangshu is Taichang Bo, Shilang is Shaochang Bo, and Yushi Dafu is Sixian Dafu. The remaining twenty-four divisions, nine temples and seven prisons, all changed their names.

In the sixteen guards of the South Ya, the left and right guards, the left and right military guards, and the left and right prison guards, the names remain the same. left and right Wuhou Wei, changed left and right Jin Wuwei; Left and right Xiao cavalry guards, changed left and right Xiao Wei; left and right Qianniu Mansion, changed to left and right Fengchenwei; Left and right guards, changed left and right Wuwei guards; The left and right led the guards, and the left and right guards.

Take Wu Kang as an example, from General Zuo Qianniu to General Zuo Fengchen, his functions and functions remain unchanged. Sometimes I can't help but think that Jin Wuwei in the year of Zhenguan and Qianniuwei in the year of Yonghui are all here to be funny, and there is no such name at all.

The north gate left and right camps, with a formal establishment, for the left and right Yulin Army. On the second day of the first month of March, pie fell from the sky, Li Jiu issued an edict, and Wukang inspected Zuo Yulin. is not only in charge of Zuo Fengchenwei, but also in charge of Zuo Yulin Army, and has become the leader of the bodyguards.

Set a small goal, master the left Yulin, win over the right Yulin, and carry out a coup d'état in the future to help Mei Niang take the position. Thinking about it, I feel that it is impossible, and the one who inspects the right feather forest is what he is capable of. He is a fan of Li Jiu, he won't listen to me, and he won't help Mei Niang.

In less than three days of excitement, bad news fell from the sky: the general manager of Xunjiang Province, Si Rong Taichangbo, the same East and West Taiwan Sanpin, and the old comrade-in-arms Ren Yaxiang, died of illness in Liaodong. Wu Kang's heart was like a knife, and he fought alongside him for the first time in the western expedition to the Turks.

I once heard the teacher say that Yaxiang served as a general, and never recommended relatives and former officials to join the army, but let the court make up for it. He often told people that official positions, no matter how big or small, are public instruments of the state, and they should not be used for personal purposes. Li Yifu, who sells official beards, should learn from him.

Li Jiu gave him a salute, posthumously presented the governor of Jingzhou, and at the same time boycotted the dynasty for three days, ordering hundreds of officials to cry and mourn. went to his mourning hall, crying and reciting eulogies to remember Mr. Ren. Wu Kang found Yang Jiong, gave him two runs of pen fees, and asked him to write words.

I can't help but secretly rejoice that my colleagues know that my literary talent is not high, and no one will care if I find someone to write the memorial text on my behalf. When I crossed the Tang Dynasty, if I took the plagiarism route, I would definitely be exposed at this moment. Can you write famous articles through the ages, but you can't write sacrificial texts, fooling the two fools?

After the funeral of Yaxiang, bad news came: the general manager of Wofu Dao, General Zuo Xiaowei, and the assassin of Baekju Shi Pang Xiaotai, died in Pyongyang Sheshui. The old general Pang Xiaotai, his thirteen sons, and five thousand Baizhou guards, all died in the country.

In the past, in Yanbin Building, Wu Kang and Xingjian's predictions have been fulfilled at this moment. Li Chunfeng's prophecy was also fully fulfilled, and the two generals died in Liaodong. He Li's class teacher, Ren Yaxiang died of illness, and Pang Xiaotai died in battle. The remaining General Liu Boying was already unable to support himself, and the northern front collapsed.

And on the sixth day of the first month of last month, the pig teammates Silla people only delivered military rations. My teacher, Su Dingfang, no matter how great his skills are, in this case, he can't defeat Pyongyang. The lifting of the encirclement of Pyongyang and the return of the southern front squad to China have been assured.

This Eastern Expedition not only lost troops and lost generals, but also failed to achieve its goal. Although many were captured, they were declared defeated, and Goguryeo escaped. The fundamental reason for this is that Tiele rebelled and was a prisoner of the Tianshan Pit. Wu Kang hated a toothache, if I were the coach, even if I lived in Mobei, I would have to stabilize Tiele.

Wu Kang spent two more times, asked Yang Jiong to buy a sacrificial text, and went to hang General Xiaopang, crying a lot. The general died on the battlefield, and all his sons were killed, which is worth kneeling and knocking three times. When the funeral was over, he received an order from the imperial court to fulfill the general's last wish: Tai was born in Baizhou, and died in Baizhou.

Send Qianniu to prepare three people, prepare twenty guards, and Yang Zaisi as the captain to escort Xiaotai's head. He went to Baizhou, Guangxi, abided by his last wishes, and was buried in Yunfeizhang. Wukang inquired about the map, the so-called Yunfeizhang, in Bobai County, Guangxi, at an altitude of more than 800 meters.

Send your subordinates away from Luoyang, and tell them that this trip is far away, be vigilant against Lingnan miasma, and pay attention to safety. After watching the team leave, he returned to his house in Daozheng Fang, drank a few glasses of water and wine, and began to sigh.

If you think about it, you can understand Hyo-tae. If 5,000 hometown soldiers fight with me on the battlefield, if the whole army is wiped out, I will not have the face to live alone. So far, thinking of Xiang Yu, he refuses to cross Jiangdong, and he has no face again, so he goes to see his hometown fathers.

After dealing with the bad things, on the morning of the thirty and twenty, Prime Minister Li Yifu wrote a letter, suggesting that he return to Chang'an, and he had been away for too long. After the end of the day, Wu Kang gathered his personal guards and packed their bags. Qian Shun Pinglang led the team, escorted Xiaoqing's mother and daughter, and their respective families, and immediately returned to Chang'an.

I took Zhao Sheng with me and followed Li Jiu to travel, first to Hebei County, and then to Puzhou City. The guard of honor continued to travel westward, and on the first day of the fourth month, it returned to Chang'an. After a few days, the court meeting was held again to discuss the reconstruction of Penglai Palace, that is, Daming Palace.

Li Jiu was guilty of wind disease, the terrain of Taiji Palace was low, and the air was very humid. Luoyang stays comfortable, and when I go back to Chang'an, I have a headache, which is really unbearable. The construction of Daming Palace is once again on the agenda, and it is ready to raise the strength of the whole country to build a palace.

Sijia Shaoqing Liang Xiaoren, will be the master craftsman Liu Xianli, and will be fully responsible for supervising the production. First of all, it is necessary to determine the names of the gates of Penglai Palace and the pavilions. The ministers expressed their opinions, and Wu Kang continued to be silent, too lazy to express his opinions on these trivial matters.

Stay up until the end of the court meeting, and ride back to Xiuzhenfang. When I came to Yongan Hutong, I saw the queen's carriage parked outside my house. I couldn't help frowning, in more than three months, I was going to have a baby. With a big belly, don't rest in the palace, what are you running around?

The door was open, the atmosphere was very depressing, Qian Shun took the reins, and Zhao Sheng went to report. Xiaoqing came in a hurry, looking quite flustered, La Wukang went to the backyard, and asked in a low voice: "Sister suddenly came to visit, looking preoccupied, what happened?" ”

Ominous premonition lingers, could it be that incident, the East Window incident, shouldn't it be. Wu Kang shook his head slightly, stopped thinking nonsense, and went to the backyard with his daughter-in-law. The palace people made a gesture and said softly: "The queen has an order, and the general will enter the house alone." ”

Wu Kang's heart sank, and with a reassuring look, he walked into the wing. Seeing the queen get up, she hurried over to help, and the two looked at each other. In less than half a minute, her face suddenly changed, her teeth clenched her lips, and tears slid down.

How is this good, just as she was about to open her mouth to comfort, Mei Niang began to cry: "Yesterday, Sister Yuan entered the palace, but she didn't come to me. Li Deguan reported that she went to Shujing Temple, and the saint was also there. It was a full half hour before she left the dormitory, what did they do? Kang Lang, tell me, what did they do? ”

Mei Niang broke down emotionally and fell into his arms, crying silently. Wu Kang smiled bitterly, patted her on the back gently, and was speechless for a while. What they're doing, fools will know. These two who killed a thousand knives can't be hidden, will they cheat...
