Chapter 572: Meeting His Royal Highness King Yan (Thanks to Alliance Leader Wu Youxiang RMB Award)
Zhao Huan was anxious but distraught, and finally felt some real anxiety and weakness.
People are often like this, they don't shed tears when they don't see the coffin. Especially the profession of the emperor, there is always a stark contrast. The king of a country has his own self-confidence and conceit, and the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister.
An emperor is sought after by others. Just like Zhao Ji, there are several stunts in hand, and the world can rarely compare with them, and they have won a lot of praise. Naturally, it creates an unparalleled self-confidence, but when this self-confidence collapses, it will also bring the greatest contrast.
This is the reason why the emperor always has the confidence of the fan. Often people in this situation will have less true understanding of themselves, let alone reflection, as the saying goes, the higher you stand, the worse you will fall.
Li Bangyan rushed to the city of Bianliang with the prepared holy decree, and when the cavalry rushed through the city gate, the city gate opened a gap, and Li Bangyan trembled out of the city gate.
It was Li Bangyan's frame that had just come out of the city gate, and the city gate behind him immediately closed tightly with a "bang". This time, Li Bangyan did not bring guards, only a chauffeur, but he also knew that as long as he left the city gate, it was meaningless to bring as many guards as he wanted.
Zheng Zhiyu was on the platform, saw a frame coming out of the city gate, raised his hand and waved, and galloped away from the oxen under the platform.
A moment later, the knights galloping back and forth from left to right also stopped their horses' hooves, collected their bows and crossbows, and thousands of people "escorted" Li Bangyan's carriage back to the front of the formation.
When he arrived at the platform, Li Bangyan got off the frame and walked quickly to the platform.
After bowing his hands, he held the holy decree in both hands and presented it to Zheng Zhi.
But he didn't expect Zheng Zhi not to pick it up this time, but said: "I'll ask Li Zhongshu to read it." β
Li Bangyan only felt that this Zheng Xianggong was really elusive, but he didn't dare to say much, and hurriedly unfolded the holy decree, and read it in his mouth: "The emperor's edict said: Zheng Zhi, the envoy of Hebei East Road, the envoy of Hebei West Road, and the doctor of Jinzi Guanglu, defeated the heavy troops of the Liao State, recovered the old land of Yanyun, saved the people of Yanyun from fire and water, and became a long-cherished wish of the Great Song Dynasty for a hundred years, and destroyed the Khitan of the enemy country in one fell swoop. He made great contributions and outstanding achievements, and specially named Zheng Zhi as the king of Yan, governing the people of the sixteen states of Yanyun, and maintaining the peace of the border for the imperial court.
Zheng Kai, the son of Zheng Zhi, was the king of Zhao, and Yongzhen Hebei East and West Roads and Jingdong Four Prefectures benefited the people and Anbang in the world.
In order to commend Zheng Zhi's merits, he introduced the latecomers as models of loyal service to the country. The daughter of the Emperor Taishang, the sister of Emperor Shunde, married Zheng Zhi as his wife, in order to show the kindness of the royal family, and I hope that Zheng Zhi will be grateful in his heart and be loyal and good for generations.
Therefore, it is hereby announced to the world as an example of commendation. β
Zheng Zhi nodded again and again when he heard this, and there was a smile on his face, but when he heard that he would marry Emperor Shunde to his wife, he didn't expect it, and looked up at Li Bangyan.
Li Bangyan had already finished reading, a little ugly smile appeared on his swollen face, and he only said: "Meet His Royal Highness King Yan, the lower officials have walked around many times for the reward of King Yan, and they have tried their best to speak, and they were almost condemned by His Majesty, and finally completed King Yan's errand, I don't know if His Royal Highness King Yan is still satisfied?" β
Zheng Zhi was naturally satisfied, but he didn't say much, only said: "Take it!" β
Hearing this, Li Bangyan hurriedly presented it with both hands, and after Zheng Zhi took it, he looked at it again, and then rolled up the holy decree and handed it to the seed master. said in his mouth: "That's it, you go back to the Ming official's house, and say that you will lead the troops back to Hebei early tomorrow morning." There are still remnants of the Liao people in the grassland, and Yelu Yanxi is still in the grassland. To thank Your Majesty for his kindness. β
When Li Bangyan heard this, he was apprehensive for a moment, and some smiles really appeared on his face, and he said in his mouth: "Everyone is happy, everyone is happy." β
"Come on, see the reward." Zheng Zhi said. He had already stood up.
Hearing this, Zhu Long walked to the front from behind, holding a small bag in his hand, and handed it to Li Bangyan. After Li Bangyan took it, he also hurriedly bowed his hand again to show his gratitude.
The generals on the left and right listened to Zheng Zhi satisfied, and also heard the content of the holy decree, all with a smile on their faces. It was Ruda who opened his mouth and laughed: "Haha... Such an official is wise, and it is very good. The Sprinkle family was the first to come to meet His Royal Highness King Yan. β
After speaking, Luda walked to the head, stood up in a good manner, straightened his helmet and armor, knelt on one knee, and said with a smile: "The last general, Luda, meet His Royal Highness King Yan." β
Seeing Luda's movements, the generals on the left and right felt that Luda reacted quickly, so he hurriedly walked to the front of the head, bowed down on one knee, and said with a smile: "Meet His Royal Highness King Yan!" β
It was the seed master and Li Gang who also bowed down to see him.
There was also a large array under the general's platform, and the sound of worship behind him could be heard, and the generals everywhere gave orders, and all the soldiers turned their heads and bowed down on one knee. Although the voices of the visit were not neat, they came and went.
Zheng Zhi was also extremely happy in his heart, smiled, and only said: "Everyone, please get up, this time I will go back to Hebei Kaifu, and there will be a reward." β
"Brother... His Royal Highness King Yan, it's okay to be a general, haha... "Luda is not polite, although I don't know how many rank officials the general is, but he also knows that the general must be a big official. But it was Ruda who also changed his name unconsciously.
Zheng Zhi looked at the seed master when he heard this, which meant to ask, and Zheng Zhi did not know much about the rank of military attachΓ©.
The seed master said with a smile: "Luda, this muddy goods, can be crowned a Huaihua general, and the title of the third grade." β
Zheng Zhi nodded and looked at Li Bangyan again.
When Li Bangyan saw Zheng Zhi's eyes, he immediately understood, and only said: "It's easy to say, as long as His Royal Highness King Yan opens the mansion, he should be rewarded, and His Majesty should agree." β
"Luda, you have risen fast, and you were only a third-grade before, but you have reached the sky in one step." Zheng Zhi said with a smile.
"Okay, the Sprinkle family wants this Huaihua general, the three products are just right, and they will be promoted again after meritorious service. What is the name of this great general? Ruda was extremely satisfied, and asked the seed master again.
The seed master also had a smile on his face, and replied: "Rising to the top is from the first rank, the hussar general, and below the second rank of the auxiliary general, the Zhenguo general." β
"Then the hussar general will let the kind of minister be the general, and the sprinkler family will be the general of the town and the country in the future." Luda was in a very good mood, so he opened his mouth to give the seed master an official position.
But I don't know that there is a Song Dynasty, these names look amazing, and the grade is not low. But it is the names of these generals, after the founding of the country, they are rarely given to others. The rank of military attachΓ© did not go to the Privy Council to be a deputy in the end. Even this deputy envoy is rarely a martial artist, Di Qing got such an official position, but he died in Tokyo. It's really sad.
The seed master heard Luda's laughter and didn't answer, that is, the seed master knew that he was a scholar, so he naturally wouldn't use the rank of military attachΓ©. Just watch Ruda joke happily.
At this time, Zheng Zhi looked left and right, and said with a smile: "You brothers have worked hard for several years, fought bloodily, and after the opening of the mansion, everyone will be rewarded." I would like to thank you brothers for your kindness. β
"Thank you, Your Highness King Yan." Everyone replied, and everyone was overjoyed.
After everyone finished speaking, Li Bangyan finally found an opportunity to step forward and say: "Your Highness is now the king of Yan, and there should be a change above the self-proclaimed, a certain word is too vulgar, and it is only the identity of calling himself this king." β
When Zheng Zhi heard this, he said tentatively: "This king? This king is a little unaccustomed, but a certain word is smooth. It's okay to be vulgar, there are many martial artists, and so-and-so is so-and-so. β
Left and right laughed again.
Li Bangyan also smiled embarrassedly, and said: "Your Highness, Your Majesty is still waiting for the lower official to return to his life, so he will stay soon." Later, Emperor Shunde will go out of the city, and please welcome His Royal Highness. β
Zheng Zhi raised his hand, and suddenly remembered another thing in his heart, and only said: "After you go back, you will send the family of the little kind of Xianggong and the emperor out of the city together." β
Zheng Zhi was already in the tone of an order, and Li Bangyan dared to refuse on the stage, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the trivial matter will be done." β
Zheng Zhi nodded, and after Li Bangyan saluted, he quickly got off the stage and got into the carriage.
The seed master heard the words in his heart, but he didn't show much of it. Watching Li Bangyan leave quickly, he reminded in his mouth: "I'm afraid this Li Zhongshu is not a good person, a cheeky and black-bellied person." β
It is quite accurate to see people among the planters. is also reminding Zheng Zhi to beware of this kind of villain.
Zheng Zhi nodded: "It doesn't matter who he is, in this world, it will be difficult to reach the hall of elegance after all." But this Zhao Huan had a good plan to seal a certain Yan King, but he made Kaier the King of Zhao. β
Hearing this, the seed master nodded, and also knew the meaning of Zheng Zhi's words, so he only said: "The abacus is very good, but it is difficult to work." β
When the two of them spoke, they both saw a problem. Zhao Huan named Zheng Zhi as the king of Yan and Zheng Kai as the king of Zhao. It is also a plan for the future, even if there is no way to take Zheng Zhi in the future. But after Zheng Zhi died, he wanted to make a fuss about Zheng Kai. This is also the last hand.
Zheng Kai is already the king of Zhao, and it is impossible to inherit Zheng Zhi's title in the future. Then Zheng Kai's son-in-law can only be King Zhao. In the future, if Zheng Zhi dies, Yan Yun can only return to the jurisdiction of the imperial court. Yanyun is in the north, Gyeonggi is in the south, sandwiched by a Zhao king Zheng Kai. It means to surround Zheng Kai on all sides, and it is also difficult for Zheng Kai to turn out the palm of the Zhao family.
Such a final backhand is obviously not something that Zhao Huan came up with. It's Li Bangyan.
Zheng Zhi didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that these things could be solved decades later, even if the Zhao family had the patience and preparation, Zheng Zhi didn't have the patience.
The sound of gold was heard in the camp, and the soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner and returned to the camp for repair.
The seed master above the city grew a breath of air, and the soldiers left and right Tokyo were also relieved. But it was the master who didn't know that the imperial court had promised Zheng Zhi two thrones. If the Seed Master Dao knew this, he would definitely be so angry that he would vomit blood.
This time, Zheng Zhi has already gained a good name, and the soldiers under his command will inevitably be more supportive. In the future, if you send troops to suppress it, where can it be so simple.
In the whole of Tokyo, I think only Taneji can understand this. But it is the way of the master who has no influence on the decision-making of the imperial court at all. is Cai Jing, who can be affected by the Dao of the Seed Master, but I am afraid that there will be no good days left.
Today's Cai Jing has been blinded by hatred. Or maybe Cai Jing never thought that Zhao Huan would become the emperor who really made his word, Cai Jing was full of heart, and he was still thinking about Zhao Ji. It is also Cai Jing's inertial thinking for decades, Zhao Ji is still full of black hair, which also makes Cai Jing not think much about it, and it is normal to say bluntly in front of Zhao Huan that the emperor is Yunyun.
