——Two chapters in one——

……

In February, when Sima Hong's car rumbled into Fu'an City, Ruan Xiqiong and his soldiers were neatly lined up in front of the city gate in the road of rectifying the mighty soldiers.

Fu'an City was actually the capital of Cao State in the past, but it was just changed its name after it was annexed by Ruan State.

After Nguyen Cairui fled to this city with the royal family and nobles, it became a stronghold for a comeback.

Ruan Xiqiong led a large army to deploy defenses in this area, and after surrendering, it was equivalent to surrendering the entire city of Cao Di.

Ruan Cairui swore not to surrender, and was afraid that the empress would commit suicide, so Ruan Xiqiong had just imprisoned her, replaced her, held the bronze box emperor seal, and stood in the wind to greet her.

Nguyen Si Qiong held high the bronze seal, sang a roll call, and presented the national treasure.

On the car, Sima Hong stared at Ruan Xiqiong, who was wearing a royal robe, and couldn't help but feel a wave of disgust.

This robe was brought by the Cangguo Imperial Court with the seal of the canon, Ruan Xiqiong wore it at this time, although it was a sign of loyalty, and it was also a face for the Cangjun, but Sima Hong seemed to see how it was not pleasing to the eye.

A traitor, can he still get the king after surrendering?

What is the face of the soldiers of the Cang Army?

You know, he, the generalissimo, is just a mere marquis.

Although, after this battle, it is not surprising that the generalissimos of the six major legions can be crowned dukes, but it is a little bit of meritorious service, what qualifications does Ruan Xiqiong have to override the marshals?

With a stomp on his feet, Sima Hong just nodded, didn't even accept the seal, and drove into Fu'an City.

In front of the main hall of Fu'an City, Sima Hong solemnly read out the emperor's edict: Ruan State surrendered to Cang, detained Cangcheng to be disposed of, Ruan State remnants, if there are those who surrendered, they will all be given preferential compensation, those who refuse to surrender, regardless of status, will be executed, and the people's governance of Ruan Land will be temporarily led by Ruan Xiqiong.

After reading it, Sima Hong walked away.

After inspecting Fu'an City for a long time, Sima Hong returned to the old palace at dusk.

Looking up, the majestic palace is now extremely bleak, if it weren't for the Ruan court and the royal family fleeing west, this place may still be a piece of dust, because it is obvious that there are broken walls everywhere here, and there are still many that have not been repaired, which is enough to show that in the past month, the Ruan royal family who fled west has not taken care of much, and even the sanitation here has not been cleaned properly.

With the hurried wandering figures of the maids and the heavy footsteps of the soldiers, this former Cao State Palace is lonely and desolate.

"How long ago did the Cao Kingdom fall?"

Sima Hong raised his head and pondered, and couldn't help but sigh a long sigh, Cangguo stood alone in the world, and the strong enemies and friends of the past all came to naught, buried in the smoke and clouds of history, the unification of Cangguo was unstoppable, looking back, it was really embarrassing.

The state of Chu is dead, the state of Jin is dead, the state of Ruan is also dead, and the country that has the most background and can withstand two rounds of defeat has died.

Wu Guo has conformed to the general trend and surrendered to Cangguo.

Among the great powers, there is only one Wei left.

The Wei State is not strong, and a country surrounded on all sides will definitely not be able to turn over any storms.

Cangjun has been dominating the world in the past two years.

As the situation becomes clearer and clearer, it is very likely that the Wei State will give up on itself, break the can, and be able to take it without a big war at all.

This is not an assertion, but a real prediction.

It's one thing to sigh and sigh, but Sima Hong didn't feel the slightest pity, as a personal participant in the rise of Cangguo, he has a sense of achievement, especially Cangguo has already raised the matter of unifying the world to a very high level, which makes him feel that the conquest and destruction of the country is not only for the sake of the country and the king, but also for the sake of the well-being of all the people in the world, and is creating the foundation of peace.

A very meaningful thing.

I feel that the whole person's life is violently sublimated!

"It seems that this is really a matter of conforming to the way of heaven."

Sima Hong muttered to himself, the Great Rite Dynasty has risen since the division of the countries, and for hundreds of years there have been many large and small disputes, and now the Cangguo is alone in the world, and the major vassal states have declined rapidly from the sun at noon, just like the sunset on the horizon.

Looking at the sunset on the horizon, Sima Hong felt for the first time that the afterglow of the sunset was so beautiful.

In the evening, Ruan Xiqiong sent a scribe to invite Sima Hong to dinner.

This made Sima Hong, who was already very unhappy with Ruan Xiqiong, disgusted for no reason.

Especially today's various compliments, I heard that it was only one day's work, and Ruan Xiqiong had already visited no less than ten generals, gave them gifts, and took the initiative to call them brothers.

If the great traitor is like this, it has never been seen for eternity!

"No, no."

Sima Hong waved his hand and said, "Let's just say that Ben Shuai is tired from running around for days, and he will rest early tonight." ”

"Yes."

The guards went out and spoke to the scribes who had come to invite.

The news reached Ruan Xiqiong's mansion, and Ruan Xiqiong was stunned for a while and hurriedly inquired.

Because according to etiquette, although this is a big banquet that Ruan Xiqiong is in charge of, it is a banquet to reward the heroes of the cang, and it is impossible for a handsome man like Sima Hong to be unclear about the etiquette.

Sima Hong didn't come, which was a bit of a suspicion of hastily canceling.

In the face of some doubts and worries under his command, Ruan Xiqiong was also very helpless, so he had to comfort everyone: "Generalissimo Sima Hong has been busy with military affairs recently, and he is very tired. ”

In this way, a celebration banquet was in embarrassment, and it dispersed in a hurry for more than an hour.

By March, some of the remaining military forces in Nguyen were either uprooted or voluntarily surrendered, and most of the Nguyen state was brought under the control of the Cang army.

For those government soldiers, Sima Hong did not treat them badly.

Now he is no longer the reckless man he was back then, and he deeply knows that the key to guarding a place lies in the way of management, rather than blindly suppressing by force, using interests to tie up and win over, and using Ruan people to govern Ruan, which is the safest way.

It was when the entire territory of Ruan was occupied by the Cang army that Sima Hong received a secret letter.

Immediately, Sima Hong almost jumped out of his seat.

Glad!

Joy!

The unhappiness in my heart can finally be kicked away!

It was in the evening that Sima Hong invited Ruan Xiqiong.

Ruan Xiqiong was very happy about this, since the Cangjun entered the city that day, he knew that Sima Hong was disgusted with him, and he had always pretended not to know.

Because he knew that his prince was indeed very disgraceful, the so-called Jane was in the emperor's heart, if it was in front of other young generals, he might put on the throne, but in front of Sima Hong, he didn't have any confidence, and he also knew that he should tie up this generalissimo who was deeply trusted by the emperor of Cangguo.

Originally, he had been thinking about how to break the game

Unexpectedly, after being snubbed for a month, Sima Hong personally invited himself.

This is a great sign!

Ruan Xiqiong, who was in a hurry, rushed to Sima Hong's shogunate, because it was a special person to invite, and he didn't call many people, in order to express his sincerity, he also brought a cart of gold, silver and jewelry, and went to the banquet with great expectations.

Ruan Xiqiong understands the taste very well, and Sima Hong also forcibly resisted the unhappiness in his heart and pretended to be hospitable.

That night, the guests and hosts enjoyed themselves.

Ruan Xiqiong, who let go of the big stone in her heart, publicized this, and finally got rid of the embarrassing situation in Cangguo, and was initially integrated into the system of Cangguo.

It was five days later that Sima Hong rode a horse and led a team of guards to the outskirts of the camp.

After a simple meal, Sima Hong summoned a few henchmen to discuss secretly.

Hearing that His Majesty the Emperor was going to do something to Ruan Xiqiong, the generals were enthusiastic.

After all, everyone is too aggrieved during this time.

A traitor turned out to be the first prince to establish the meritorious lord system in Cangguo!

How ironic is that?

During this time, although Ruan Xiqiong gave gifts to many people to curry favor, few people gave her a fake color.

is such a stingy villain, it's not a day or two that everyone can't get used to him.

After Sima Hong glanced at the generals, he immediately patted the case and said: "Well, today is the day when the old thief is beheaded!"

That night, the city of Fu'an was lit up.

Sima Hong invited Ruan Xiqiong to the banquet again, Ruan Xiqiong was overjoyed, and immediately brought a group of ministers to the banquet, no one wanted to spoil the fun, a few glasses of strong wine in the stomach, and the palace was drunk when it was not consumed.

Ruan Xiqiong also left her vigilance, let go of the big drink, and the big lord drank continuously, and in less than half an hour, he became fluttery.

At the fifth watch, a fierce fire engulfed the night banquet hall.

At the same time, the mansions of those generals in the city have also suffered different degrees of fire, due to the curfew, none of the people put out the fire nor reported to the official, since then there has been a saying, some people say that they saw a piece of fire falling from the sky, that is the heavenly fire, that is the punishment of the wrath of heaven, that is the evil retribution of the treacherous villain.

That night, Sima Hong climbed the city wall, looked at the four fields from afar, and stood white in the east.

It turned out that the secret letter he received that day was an order from Yang Mu: wait for an opportunity to kill Ruan Xiqiong.

Since he was waiting for an opportunity, he understood what the emperor meant, that is, he could do this only when he ensured that there would be no chaos and that the reputation of Cangguo would not be damaged.

Therefore, when there was an invitation to Ruan Xiqiong, it was necessary to tell the world the fact that Cangguo had no intention of treating Ruan Xiqiong badly, and did not go back on his word.

After that, he let his guard down so that the two sides would not be opposed, and a bloody sacrifice was avoided.

As soon as the next day, Sima Hong announced a major event, he was assassinated by Ruan Xiqiong last night!

So, in the midst of various rumors and speculations, the matter suddenly fermented into Ruan Xiqiong's enduring humiliation and assassinating the commander of the Cang army.

Confused, even the subjects of Ruan State, they can't figure it out.

It was only less than a month before the matter quickly subsided.

……

Wu Guo, Wu Guo up and down, can be said to be the most relaxed.

Since sending troops to the north of Ruan State and announcing the return of the whole country to Cangguo, both the royal family and the nobles in the country have let go of their worries.

Because now, no country can restrict Cangguo, since it can't be parried horizontally and vertically, why don't you take refuge in Cangguo and fight for comfort.

In itself, the Kingdom of Wu was originally a small vassal state, and it was enshrined in the Great Rite Son of Heaven, but now it has just been beaten back to its original form.

At this point, the monarchs and ministers of the Wu Kingdom can be regarded as open.

The only worry is that on the occasion of this great victory, Cangguo will change its previous tolerant mentality and take action against them.

In this regard, Cangguo did not want to chill the hearts of the monarchs and ministers of the Wu Kingdom, and sent Yan Hua to envoy the Wu Kingdom again.

In this regard, Yan Hua happily went.

He is already sixty years old, and his body has not been as good as a year in the past two years, and the reason why he has been insisting on it is because he wants to see Cangguo dominate the world, retire after success, and be able to leave a name in history.

Convincing Wu Guo is tantamount to drawing a successful end to his career as an official.

If the Wu State does not surrender, Yan Hua is not worried, after all, the coalition forces of the countries were defeated, and there was only one Wei State left to survive.

After all, the monarchs and ministers of the martial kingdom are not the kind of monarchs and ministers who are ambitious and ambitious.

At the beginning of April, Yan Hua arrived at Wucheng, the imperial capital of Wuguo, with the national letter written by Emperor Yang Mu himself.

Because the official position is indeed neither high nor low, and it is not avoided that the Emperor Wuguo mistakenly thought that he had been insulted, Yan Hua explained when he saw the Emperor Wuguo: "This time it should have been the two prime ministers who came in person, but Lord Kong is very old and has a recent illness, so it is inconvenient to come, so Yan, the secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, came on his behalf, and I hope Your Majesty will not be surprised." ”

"How dare you, Lord Yan is serious." Emperor Wu said in a loud voice.

In all fairness, the Emperor of Wuguo at this moment can only relax in his heart, where is there anything dissatisfied?

What he wants is the attitude of a Cangguo, at present, the people in the country are impetuous, and he, the emperor, has no authority to speak of to be honest, if he doesn't want to have military power, I'm afraid that no one will listen to the court every day.

What's more, Yan Hua's status in Cangguo is not low, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is a very important yamen in Cangguo, Yan Hua, the scholar in other countries, is a proper secretary, how can he feel any insult as an emperor who is about to surrender.

The most important thing is that what Emperor Wuguo cares about most at the moment is not this face issue at all, but the actual interests, that is, how Emperor Cangguo should place the royal family and nobles of Wuguo, and what kind of title he should give him.

Thinking of this, Emperor Wuguo cautiously asked, "Lord Yan, I don't know Your Majesty...... Have you agreed to my Takeku's plea? ”

The so-called plea is to treat the monarchs and ministers of the martial kingdom well and give some food to the monarchs and ministers of the martial kingdom.

These have already been written in the Book of Surrender.

Hearing this, Yan Hua hurriedly said, "Your Majesty Emperor Wu can rest assured, the conditions you put forward have been promised by my Emperor Dacang. ”

As he spoke, he took out the national letter written by Yang Mu himself from his arms and handed it to Emperor Wuguo.

Emperor Wuguo hurriedly took the letter of state and looked at it carefully, only to see that in the letter of state, Emperor Yang Mu of Cangguo clearly gave the standard treatment that the monarchs and ministers of Wuguo could enjoy after defecting to Wei.

For example, the entire Wucheng was directly given to the Emperor Wuguo as a fief, and the title of a one-star duke was given.

And some of the rest of the martial kings have obtained large and small titles, and have given some small cities as food.

This treatment can be said to be a precedent for the cangguo to bestow the title, which is particularly special.
