Chapter 774: Entrenched in the Guanzhong
The Dahua generals continued to sweep through the remnants of the Guannei, and the scattered armies of the Western Qin, Liang, and Tang States hid in the mountains and forests, and were reported by the local people, which attracted the encirclement and suppression of the Dahua regular army, and some of the Green Forest Gangs that occupied the mountains were either surrendered or also cleared.
Within half a month, Hangu Pass, Tongguan, Wuguan and other important Xiongguan passes all fell under the control of Dahua, cutting off the gateway of the Central Plains into the pass, only Dahua sent troops to attack them, and the princes of the Central Plains did not have the opportunity to attack the pass.
This situation is similar to the situation of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, when the princes and overlords of all parties in the Central Plains gathered in Guanzhong and regarded Dahua as the number one enemy.
The Liang State was almost wiped out by Li Jing, and the Liang division fled from Yan'an County, the Great Wall, and Shuofang County in the Hetao Plain with 20,000 remnants of soldiers and horses, rolling up some gold, silver and jewelry, and returning to their old nest - Yanlvcheng.
Shuofang County further north, is the territory of the Turks, the former Turks in Wuyuan County, but after the Great Sui civil strife, Shibi Khan led the troops to the south, occupied Wuyuan County, Lingwu County, Yulin County part of the territory, there are deserts, grasslands, belong to the land of the Hetao, the Turks also like it very much.
Li Jing sent troops to defend Ningshuo City, which was the fortress to Shuofang, with Hengshan Mountain to the northeast and Baigan Mountain to the southwest, and the mountain range stretched the Great Wall, which was enough to block the soldiers and horses from outside from entering the land of Guanlong and shielding the threat from the north.
In this way, the east, west, north and south, all sides are solid, and Dahua is entrenched in the customs and can develop steadily.
These days, some qualified civil servants and strategists have been escorted to Chang'an City one after another, and they have returned to the long-lost imperial capital, and they all feel like a world away.
Chu Liang, Gao Xiaoji, Xin Gongyi, Gao Shilian, Changsun Shunde, Wen Yanbo, Yao Silian, these scholars, sages, and capable ministers came to Chang'an City, entered the palace, and took turns to accept Luo Zhaoyun's parent-child reception and condolences, and gave high courtesy.
This is a gesture of respect, just like gold buying horse bones, there will be more Jingzhao sages, one after another, willing to enter the office for Dahua.
Soon, Lu Deming, a doctor of Taixue, returned to the Taixue Mansion in Chang'an City and continued to announce that Taixue was operating normally.
Xue Shui, Su Shichang and others, who were hidden in Chang'an, also appeared one after another, or were recommended, or took the initiative to contact acquaintances, and were recommended to enter the court, willing to be ministers of Dahua.
As a result, there are more and more virtuous people in the court, word of mouth is brewing, and the people in the city are spreading the word that a certain sage is willing to be a Huachen and defect to the Ming Lord, creating more and more momentum for Luo Zhaoyun.
On this day, the eldest grandson Wuji arrived, accompanied by Luo Zhaoyun's family.
Princess Ruyi, Xiao Yiyi, Ning Muhe, eldest grandson Wurong, Xue Zhiqing, Xiao Hou, Gao Yufei and other daughters, all came with the team.
The ladies got out of the car and were already standing in the imperial city, looking at the palace group in Chengtianmen, the women were full of emotion.
Empress Xiao and Ruyi stood together, their eyes were blurred, and they had cried silently, this was originally the place where they lived, and finally turned around, after ups and downs and life and death, they returned to the far point, but nothing happened.
"Mother, we're back again!"
Ruyi hugged Xiao Hou and cried, Xiao Hou patted her back, shook her head and sighed: "Silly child, I am no longer your mother, and I am no longer the queen of the Great Sui, the Great Sui has perished." ”
"Yes, I thought that when I grew up, I could leave this palace and not have to live a palace life anymore, but I didn't expect to come back here and live in." Ruyi never expected that one day after she married her husband, she would go to live in the palace, she was bored with the palace life from the beginning of her sensibility, and wanted to grow up and marry out to live a clean life, but in the end it backfired.
"It's good to be alive, if it weren't for your husband's strong skills, would we still have our lives here" Empress Xiao sighed.
Unlike the second daughter, the other women were full of excitement.
Xiao Yinuo and Ning Muhe never thought that one day they would live in the palace, as the emperor's concubine, they would become the most noble women in the world, no longer the humble status of the past, they all felt that they were worthy, psychological satisfaction, identity recognition, for those from low backgrounds, the satisfaction seemed to be greater.
The eldest grandson Wurong, Xue Zhiqing, and Gao Yufei also have different thoughts, they are all interested in Luo Zhaoyun, but they have not yet been formally united, His Majesty promised that when they enter Chang'an and stabilize Guanzhong, they will talk to them about marriage and canonize them as concubines.
In the past, they were worried that they were not the main wife, but now they are likely to become concubines, so naturally they don't have any identity and status concerns, thinking of being able to marry the founding king, the wise and martial Luo Cheng, the three daughters are full of excitement in their hearts.
In addition to the eldest grandson Wurong, who is eighteen or nineteen years old, Xue Zhiqing and Gao Yufei are not young, one is two years older than Luo Zhaoyun, and the other is two or three years younger than him, both of them are over twenty-five years old, and they have become old girls, how can they not be in a hurry to get married!
Luo Zhaoyun went out of the Taiji Palace and personally went to the palace compound to greet the daughters, he had not opened meat for several months, and he could finally enjoy the tenderness of his wife and concubine again.
"See Your Majesty!"
"Haha, there are no outsiders here, no need to be polite, concubines ......" He saw Xue Zhiqing, Gao Yufei and other women, obviously not canonized, so he changed his words: "You have all worked hard, I have sent the imperial dining room to prepare a sumptuous meal, and we will eat together tonight, I miss you very much." ”
When the women heard this, their hearts beat a little, and their faces showed joy, and the feeling of being pampered was what every woman longed for.
"All the way, wait for the inner servant and the commander of the court to arrange your residence, bathe and change your clothes." Luo Zhaoyun made arrangements.
The ladies thanked them and exchanged a few words with His Majesty, but some ministers wanted to come to the palace to meet the guests, so they couldn't accompany the ladies to talk in the afternoon.
The people who came were the eldest grandson Wuji, the eldest grandson Shunde, Gao Shilian, Gao Xiaoji, Xin Gongyi and others.
Luo Zhaoyun was surprised, and didn't know what was important, so he met these people in the imperial study, and after sitting down according to the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, he asked about the intention.
"Your Majesty, I can't hide it, after my Dahua has not been established for a long time, and no heirs have been born, it is very unfavorable to Dahua, and it will make the court unstable, the minister suggests, when the queen is established as soon as possible!"
"Dahua must also have an heir born as soon as possible, otherwise, after settling down, the people will talk about it, and the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty will also have their own speculations, which is not good for Your Majesty."
After the eldest grandson Shunde and Gao Shilian finished saying this, others attached themselves one after another.
Luo Zhaoyun looked at these ministers, it can be said that they are all henchmen, and then look at their identities, the eldest grandson family and the Bohai Gao clan are both top gate valves, these two forces are twisted together, and they are so keen to come to discuss the matter of the future, then there may be only one reason, they want to push the eldest grandson as the queen!
