Chapter 129: Finally demoted to the South China Sea Official
Lu Yan played in Wangyi Palace until the evening moment, and only left after eating with Hu Hai Gongzi, thinking that Zhao Tuo had already arranged everything, so he didn't go over to ask. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Tuo was indeed reported to the Xianyang Palace, and many ministers had been waiting for Zhao Tuo in the palace for a long time, and Lu Yan was also in the queue.
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Tuo with a somewhat unkind face, Zhao Tuo was weak-hearted, so he naturally didn't dare to raise his head, "Your Majesty will see the king." Zhao Tuo replied very respectfully.
"General Yang, come on." Ying Zheng didn't let Zhao Tuo get up, but looked at Yang Duanhe on the side and motioned for him to explain things clearly.
"King Qiqi, Commander Zhao asked his retainers to force the old slave of the Xin family to hand over the land deed, and yesterday he even went to measure it in person, but he really didn't take General Xin Sheng in his eyes." Yang Duanhe said calmly.
Ying Zheng nodded, "Zhao Tuo, do you have something to say." ”
"King Qiqi, this matter is all done by the retainers to please his subordinates, and the title deeds have all been handed over to Xin Lao, and I have gone to the Yang Mansion yesterday to apologize." Zhao Tuo said helplessly.
"The retainers are also disciplined by you, and you still do such a thing, if you don't punish you, I'm afraid I'm sorry for the Xin family, you have something to defend." Ying Zheng said in a gloomy voice.
Zhao Tuo knew that there was no room for maneuver in this matter, "Your Majesty hopes that the king will be gracious." ”
"It is a felony for you to occupy the general's family land, and you will be relegated to a civilian from today onwards, and you will never be allowed to come here." Ying Zheng said emotionlessly.
Lu Yan next to him frowned a little after hearing this, such a punishment was really a bit serious, Zhao Tuo just knelt in place with no light in his eyes after hearing this.
Lu Yan hurriedly walked out of the queue, "Your Majesty, although Zhao Tuo is guilty, he is also a talented person, and it is really inappropriate to be demoted to a commoner like this. ”
"Then what does Lu Aiqing think?" Ying Zheng turned to look at Lu Yan and said, the cloth spread in front of him had not yet started, and Lu Yan looked at Zhao Tuo with some pity.
This sudden ups and downs are too fast, and it is inevitable that Zhao Tuo can't stand it, "The minister thinks that Zhao Tuo has been to Baiyue many times, and Baiyue Chuping also needs the talents of the empire, so it is better to let him go to Baiyue to accept his fate as the internal history of the South China Sea, and assist Ren Huan to govern the land of Baiyue Dongou." Lu Yan said slowly.
Ying Zheng also felt that it made sense, and immediately nodded in agreement, it is indeed unreasonable to be demoted to a commoner, but it is still possible to serve the empire if he is demoted to Nanhai County, so why not?
"Zhao Tuo, are you willing to go to the South China Sea for the internal history and assist Ren Huan in handling the affairs of the tribes in the South China Sea." Ying Zheng asked Zhao Tuo, who was kneeling on the ground.
At this time, Zhao Tuo was still in a daze, Lu Yan quickly walked in front of Zhao Tuo and touched Zhao Tuo with his heel, Zhao Tuo looked at Lu Yan with some trepidation.
"Receive the Order." Lu Yan said in a low voice, Zhao Tuo also reacted immediately, and hurriedly kowtowed, "Your Majesty, thank you for the king's love, and you will definitely live up to the king's trust and manage the South China Sea." ”
Ying Zheng also felt satisfied after hearing this, "Are you satisfied with General Yang's arrangement?" ”
When Yang Duanhe saw Zhao Tuo like this, he also had some compassion in his heart, and Lu Yan pleaded for mercy many times, and he didn't punish him more, so he immediately agreed with Yingzheng's decision.
The hall was also very happy, only Zhao Tuo walked down from the hall in a little embarrassment, and after going down, Lu Yan was very uneasy in his heart, and immediately went to the Zhao Mansion to inquire about the situation.
And Zhao Tuo was packing up his salute in the old mansion, and when he saw Lu Yan coming, he immediately ordered the courtiers to prepare wine and food, which should also be Lu Yan's send-off wine.
The two sat opposite each other, although Zhao Tuo was less than thirty, but he looked very haggard, it is estimated that it is the same for everyone, but for a while, he actually demoted from the central official position to a local petty official, and his heart was naturally unbalanced.
"Thank you Lord Hou for interceding for Tuo in the palace, and I am grateful." Zhao Tuo said, let's drink a glass of wine.
"You and I are a friendship, how can I not protect you, please ask Rong Ziyu to call my brother to answer." Lu Yan said slowly.
Zhao Tuo also nodded, "My brother went to Nanhai County, there are mountains on three sides, and one side is by the sea, it is the hometown of Tianfu, but there is no Qin people to reclaim it, after my brother passes, he can let Ren Huan and Ji Baiyue promote the integration between Qin and barbarians, and in the future, he will be able to manage Nanhai County, and then go south at the right time, I believe that my brother will be able to achieve great things." Lu Yan said in a low voice.
"You're letting me become an independent foreign country in Nanhai County?" Zhao Tuo also said cautiously.
Lu Yan waved his hand, "If it is peaceful today, brother must not talk nonsense, if it is a troubled time, it is feasible to do this, I hope that my brother will calm down and govern Nanhai County, which is thousands of miles away from Xianyang, my brother has not yet started a family, don't be nostalgic for Xianyang, this time my brother goes to Nanhai, I am afraid it will be difficult to come back, if there is anything, my brother can send a letter to me, I will make every effort to arrange." ”
Hearing Lu Yan say this, Zhao Tuo also nodded, "When I meet Hou Ye in this life, Zhao Tuo has no regrets." After saying that, he toasted Lu Yan with a glass of sake.
The two drank for more than half an hour before Lu Yan got up and said goodbye, "Brother, take care all the way, I will write a letter to Ren Huan, and let Liu Yi and Fang Bi treat my brother well." ”
"Thank you, Master Hou." Zhao Tuo said helplessly, but because of the matter of dozens of acres of fields, Zhao Tuo didn't expect it to become like this.
As the saying goes, water is impermanent, and it is not an exaggeration to use it on people's bodies, and the next morning, Zhao Tuo rushed to Nanhai County with some carry-on luggage.
Xin Chai heard that Zhao Tuo had been demoted and the land had been returned, so he didn't mention the matter anymore, but it seems that the matter between Xin Chai and Zhao Tuo has just begun.
After that, Xin Chai married Li Cang, the prime minister of Changsha State, and Zhao Tuo was not idle, since 209 BC began to expand the territory, taking advantage of the Central Plains military rebellion, in one fell swoop to occupy many ethnic lands, the establishment of the Nanyue State, proclaimed himself Emperor Wu of Nanyue.
Since Zhao Tuo became the emperor, he has always wanted to take advantage of the Han Dynasty to go north, and the border between the two countries is guarded by Mrs. Xin Chai, but Zhao Tuo's martial arts are all restricted by Xin Tuo and his wife, and there is no chance to go out of South Vietnam, only until the Han Dynasty is strong, and the descendants of the Zhao family have to bow down to the Han Dynasty and pay tribute every year.
Speaking of fate, this kind of thing is also strange, Zhao Tuo's life seems to have been restrained by Xin Chase again, when he was in Xianyang in the early stage, if it weren't for this matter, it would be difficult to say to the extent that Zhao Tuo could develop.
And after the South China Sea, if it weren't for the restrictions of Xin Chai and his wife, it is not known what Zhao Tuo would have developed, so it is not known what Xin Chai was born to be Zhao Tuo's evil star.
Since sending Zhao Tuo away, Xianyang's life has been a lot more stable, but Lu Yan shuttles back and forth between Xianyang East Palace and Wangyi Palace all day long, teaching all the art of war and etiquette.
