Chapter 14 Liu Zhiyuan returns to Beijing

The snow was blowing one after another, and it fell for six days, and the snowflakes piled up on the ground were enough to reach the knees, and Jing Zhaoyin organized a large number of people to clear the snow on the streets of Kaifeng, and pedestrians were able to travel. During this period of time, Yang Lian, Lin Renzhao, Chen Tie and others were still stuffed in Honglu Temple, looking like they were in retreat and cultivating.

Liu Chengxun sent people to lurk for a long time, but he never found the handle of Yang Lian and others, so he had to withdraw the people who were watching and think of another way.

At this time, it has been nearly the end of the year, although the Han war is frequent, but in Kaifeng, there is already a bit of New Year's weather, the pedestrians on the street gradually increased, the people are carrying New Year's goods in their hands, and their faces are finally rippling with a little smile.

On the street, several children, dressed in new or clean clothes, are chasing and fighting.

"The Han water is exhausted, and the finch flies high. Flying around and stopping, the mountains are not as low as the castles! Another way is: 100 finches fly on the water, and 99 pass through Shanxi. Only one stepped on his feet, and Gao Qi took care of his sweater alone. ”

There were a few more children in the streets, dancing and singing. The child's voice is very clear, and through the foggy morning, people can't help but feel refreshed. The singing is very melodious, almost in one day, it spread all over the streets and alleys of Kaifeng. Many children gathered together, clapping, dancing and singing.

When Yang Lian got the news, he was talking to Lin Renzhao in Honglu Temple. Both believed that with the end of the war in Weizhou, Liu Zhiyuan would soon return to Kaifeng, and the two should also hurry up and make more preparations to deal with the strong counterattack of the Han State.

Just as the two were talking, Chen Tie brought the news back.

Lin Renzhao knocked on the case, frowned, and said, "Push back picture? ”

It is said that the back picture was inferred by Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng's master and apprentice in the early Tang Dynasty, although the reputation was not good enough at this time, but Lin Renzhao had heard of it.

Yang Lian nodded. This paragraph tells the story of Guo Wei's self-reliance in the later Zhou Dynasty, and it is a good time to use it at this point in time. Presumably Liu Chengxun should have gotten the news, it depends on how he responds.

"The Han water is exhausted, and the finch flies high. Where does it stop flying around, the mountains are not as low as the castles? "The Prince's Mansion. Liu Chengxun read, and Li Ye nodded again and again beside him.

"Prince, now this song is widely spread in Kaifeng City almost in one day, and it seems that someone did it deliberately." Li Ye replied.

Liu Chengxun read poetry and books, especially Li Tang, who had just destroyed the country less than 50 years ago, admired it very much, most of the characters in the history of Li Tang were like a few treasures, and after reciting this sentence a few times, Liu Chengxun immediately thought of pushing the back picture. Although the push back picture was strictly controlled by the Li Tang royal family. For more than 200 years, it has hardly spread to the people, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, especially after the Han State occupied Kaifeng, and got a large number of classics left by the previous dynasty.

Liu Chengxun knew that Li Ye almost didn't learn and ran errands. It's okay to do things, but it's okay to give advice. It's not enough. Immediately, he didn't say much, and paced in the study with his hands in his hands, who deliberately spread this proverb?

Liu Chengxun knew that all proverbs must be spread, otherwise it would be impossible for them to appear for no reason, so he thought about it. Let Li Ye investigate where the source of the proverb came from. Li Ye agreed and hurriedly walked out. Liu Chengxun sat down by the brazier, the charcoal crackled, Liu Chengxun's heart suddenly moved, and he thought of a person.

Gently knocked the case a few times. Liu Chengxun felt the need to figure out the matter, otherwise he would not be able to sleep well.

Li Ye quickly spread the news, but this news made Liu Chengxun very disappointed, it is said that this ballad was spread by a Taoist, but Li Ye sent people to search all over the city, and even searched for places with a radius of more than five hundred miles, and could not find such a Taoist priest at all, that is to say, the main messenger behind the Taoist priest had no way to find it.

It's just that he can't find the main messenger, Liu Chengxun thought about this proverb for a long time, and then he thought of a clue, but he couldn't figure it out, the last point of the proverb was actually surnamed Guo. In the court of the Han Kingdom, although there are many people with the surname Guo, there are not many people who hold real power, and even fewer people who belong to the important ministers of the court. Moreover, Guo Wei's alias is called Finch! This seems to be a bit too much of a coincidence!

But Liu Chengxun thought about it for a long time, and felt that it couldn't be Guo Wei, Guo Wei did have a hand in the war, but he was modest, his personality was also modest, and he was low-key and thrifty, no matter what Liu Chengxun thought, he felt that it couldn't be Guo Wei. Guo Wei has no reason to rebel at all!

But even if it was, Liu Chengxun didn't dare to act rashly. After all, Guo Wei is a minister of the DPRK and the central government, and he has real power, and this matter has to be handled by his father, so it is the best policy.

Liu Chengxun calculated the time, the news of Weizhou's victory had been coming for a few days, and his father should have handled the affairs of Weizhou almost, and he would come to Kaifeng soon. It's going to be the New Year, and officials from all over the country will also rush to Kaifeng to report on their work, and this matter will be handed over to my father.

At this time, Liu Zhiyuan had indeed dealt with the affairs of Weizhou, most of the officials in Weizhou, except for Du Chongwei, were killed, Liu Zhiyuan took his family wealth, and then sent it to the three armies, which greatly boosted the morale of the three armies. After leaving people to guard Weizhou, Liu Zhiyuan took his subordinates and Du Chongwei to Kaifeng, but it was snowing heavily along the way, and it was inconvenient to march, which delayed time.

On December 15, when Liu Chengxun was still having a headache about his younger brother Liu Chengyou and the proverbs in Beijing, Liu Zhiyuan led the army to Kaifeng, and the army stretched for miles along the way, and the momentum was monstrous. The crown prince Liu Chengxun personally led hundreds of civil and military officials out of the city to greet him.

Yang Wei, the secretary of the ministry, was also among them, and after this period of recuperation, his health was much better, but as soon as he remembered the humiliation he suffered that day, he was indignant in his heart, even if the person who beat him was the second prince, what could he do? These days, the crown prince Liu Chengxun did not act, and he had no intention of punishing Liu Chengyou, Yang Wei's heart was already extremely dissatisfied, but since he already knew that the prince was deliberately partial, he no longer went to the prince Liu Chengxun, but had other plans.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Qiqi, the distance between the Son of Heaven is less than five miles!" A cavalryman hurried over and replied.

Yang Lian rode on the war horse, squinted his eyes and looked ahead, in a snow-white, the soldiers of the Han State were like a giant snake crawling slowly, as soon as he thought of being able to see the emperor of the Han Kingdom, Yang Lian's heart was a little complicated, he once had a certain idea, but finally decided to give up. The Han Kingdom looks like this, it seems that it is difficult to protect itself, how can it have spare strength?

Du Chongwei has just been surrendered, but there is a second Du Chongwei and a third Du Chongwei, and in my impression, the history of the Han Kingdom seems to have always been the history of counterinsurgency, and it is impossible to borrow strength. Yang Lian shook his head, shook off the unrealistic thoughts in his heart, and stared ahead with blazing eyes.

In the crowd, Guo Tong was eager to try, it is said that the Son of Heaven returned to Beijing, and when he left, he passed through Yedu, and his father also came to Kaifeng, and his younger brother Guo Xin was also on the side, constantly looking forward, both of them had not seen their father for more than half a year, and they missed it tightly.

Yang Lian's eyes swept over the two, just by taking a look, he saw that these two people were Guo Wei's sons, if they didn't count the adopted son Guo Rong, these two were Guo Wei's eldest son and second son. It's a pity, it's a pity, these two people died early, which made Guo Rong pick up a bargain. Thinking of Guo Rong's somewhat squinting eyes staring at Miss Fu that day, Yang Lian's heart was a little unhappy. In his opinion, Guo Rong should have been interested in Miss Fu because of that sentence, and he didn't really like Miss Fu, such a person is not worth Miss Fu's life at all.

Most of the ministers of the Han State were whispering, listening to their discussions, they were talking about the pacification of the Weizhou Rebellion this time, and some ministers thought that Du Chongwei was a repeated villain, and he actually took refuge in the Khitans, and this alone could not forgive him. And some people think that since His Majesty promised not to kill him, the words of the Son of Heaven must be nine words, how can he lose his words? Now that Du Chongwei has chosen to surrender, this is enough.

Yang Lian was not interested in these words, he looked for two people in the crowd, but soon he was disappointed, Liu Chengyou and Guo Rong did not appear. Yang Lian was only slightly disappointed, and quickly cheered up, the two of them were not here, so Yang Lian's plan would have a certain impact, but it was not a decisive one, it didn't matter.

Just when Yang Lian was thinking, Liu Chengxun seemed to glance at Yang Lian inadvertently, and seeing him with a pensive look, Liu Chengxun looked at him silently for a moment, and he couldn't guess in his heart As a messenger, what kind of excitement did Yang Lian come to join?

The ministers of the Han State have different thoughts, at this time, the iron hooves in front of them roared, led by hundreds of cavalry stepping on the snow remaining on the official road, rolling up a whirlwind to come, the first general, wearing silver armor, wearing a silver helmet, in this snow all over the ground, it looks very special.

"The last general, Gao Huaide, has seen His Royal Highness the Prince!" The leader of the generals, riding on a war horse, clasped his hands into fists, and saluted Liu Chengxun.

"General Gao has worked hard all the way!" Liu Chengxun said with a smile.

"Your Majesty is less than two miles away from here." Gao Huaide announced.

Liu Chengxun nodded, tried to look forward, and could vaguely see the figure of his father.

Gao Huaide didn't say much, and immediately let hundreds of cavalry line up on both sides, and held the flag of the Han State high in the cold wind, and the cold wind blew the flag hula. Yang Lian gently patted the head of the war horse and signaled it to be quiet.

In less than half a pillar of incense, under the leadership of several iron horsemen, Liu Zhiyuan rode a white horse and came slowly, and behind him were Gao Xingzhou, Murong Yanchao, Du Chongwei and others. As the distance gradually got closer, the crown prince Liu Chengxun and the civil and military officials got off their horses, saluted Liu Zhiyuan, and said, "Weichen has seen Your Majesty. ”

Liu Zhiyuan rode on a standing horse, the battle of Weizhou, so that he was exhausted, although this battle was said to have subdued Du Chongwei, but the loss of the Han State was also quite large, in order to calm the anger and sadness of the soldiers, so Liu Zhiyuan killed most of Du Chongwei's subordinates, and confiscated their family property and sent it to the soldiers of the Han State, which calmed the anger of the soldiers.

Although exhausted, after this battle, no one in the Central Plains dared to fight with the Central Plains. The central court confronted, and the reason why Liu Zhiyuan came so slowly was because he took his troops to other places to inspect by the way, and the envoys from all over the country came to see him, which made Liu Zhiyuan happy.

However, just when he was about to return to Beijing, when the crown prince and the hundred officials of the Han Kingdom all dismounted and gave salutes, Liu Zhiyuan saw a very discordant scene at a glance, there was a person who was actually riding on a war horse, looking at himself with blazing eyes, without the slightest fear!
