Chapter 792: The King's Tent Sheds Blood
Although the Jinshi of the Tang Dynasty is tested once a year, the gold content is much higher than that of the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, which are one or two hundred every three years. Especially since the beginning of the century, there have been a few notoriously black-faced and strict examiners, and there are often more than a dozen or twenty new jinshi in a year, which has made jinshi and the first become the titles that compete with each other in the officialdom. As long as they are Jinshi to each other, they can be a little closer when they speak. Therefore, Du Shiyi, who has three heads and the first head, has never lacked Jinshi around him since he came out.
When he was out of Chengdu, he attracted Wei Li and Zhang Jian in the same year as the science field.
When he became the governor of Yunzhou, he brought Wang Han, Wang Lingran, and Guo Quan, who were in the early years of Jinshi and the first. Even if he later transferred to Daizhou, these people still dominated everything.
And Jiedu Longyou, Xian Yu Zhongtong and Yan Zhenqing are all new talents and first. As soon as Xian Yu Zhongtong went to Luoyang for more than a year, Wang Changling sent it to the door again.
Those who were born as military generals had to go to great lengths to recruit talents, and they also had to worry that people would not be willing to do so after they were established, and he was only worried about the limited position and could not make full use of his personal interests. Of course, he is also very considerate of others, Xian Yu Zhongtong is ambitious and long-sleeved and good at dancing, so he sent people to Liangjing to make friends with the nobles, and the next official has finalized the imperial history platform to supervise the imperial history; Yan Zhenqing is upright, and he is his junior brother, but he was born in Jingzhao and has a bookbox, and he is also ready to let people go back to seek a better future for him; Du Fu had already been sent back to Beijing in October, planning to take the Jinshi exam; Zhang Xing has been with him for the longest time, it has been five or six years now, even if the reputation of the black secretary of Longyou is about to spread to the Western Regions, but he can't be the secretary for a lifetime, and if he wants to be a judge of the festival, he needs additional qualifications!
Therefore, Wang Changling Gao Shi came at the right time! The two of them are the same age as Du Shiyi, and their qualifications are still young, so they are the best candidates for shogunate officials!
When Guo Jian had to accept the appointment of the general of the Zhenxi Army and went to Hezhou with more than ten cronies to take office, Zhang Xing also took over the preparation of the book from the central government, and together with Li Jingzhong, the palace servant who rushed to Shanzhou, he took Feng Changqing to envoy to Tibet. As soon as the two of them left, Du Shiyi appointed Wang Changling as the secretary of the Longyou Jiedu, and Gao Shi as the inspector of the Longyou Jiedu, as for Yan Zhenqing, who had already assumed the position of pushing the official, he and the Jiedu judge Duan Xingchen went to inspect the border defense of Taozhou and Kuozhou, and ordered the Jiedu to make the operation of the shogunate in a state of just right.
Guo Jian left office, and the Lintao army was about to become vacant, so Wang Zhongsi naturally turned into a regular position, and took over the post of left wing soldier and horse envoy from Du Shiyi. Although this is comparable to his original position as the deputy envoy of Hexi's crusade, or even slightly inferior, he is already satisfied that Shanzhou, which was nominally demoted, can have such a situation. His wife and son have also received Huangshui City in Shanzhou, saying that the haze is gone, but every time he dreams back at midnight, he thinks of the days and nights when he is recalled to Beijing from Hexi in a hurry, and then waits for the arrival in the hostel, he still can't help but have a few different thoughts.
Even if the achievements of the war are great, what about the generals? Isn't it that the Son of Heaven is angry, trembling, and afraid of becoming a powder?
After the Lantern Festival full of lanterns in the city, the usual tranquility of Huangshui City has returned. Even though it is the Shanzhou Governor's Mansion, which is the center of the entire Longyou, people often come and go endlessly, but even ordinary people know that there is no war on the frontier now, and it is the most peaceful and happy prosperous era. In the early afternoon, when a tired messenger stopped in front of the Governor's Palace, he couldn't help but attract a few curious glances. And Wu Tianqi, who had been squatting on the door for several days, was shocked when he saw this person, and Huo Ran got up and stepped forward.
"Oh, it's big brother? Could it be that my grandfather has any news for you to send? ”
Wu Tianqi is Du Shiyi's henchman, in the eyes of others, he is a big mouth, and he loves to brag with people in the Shanzhou Governor's Mansion when he has nothing to do, so everyone knows that his father Wu Jiu was the first person to follow Du Shiyi, and now he is in charge of those elegant businesses such as pen, ink, paper and inkstone in Liangjing, which can be described as Du Shiyi's money bag. Therefore, when Wu Tianqi diligently and enthusiastically supported this person's arm and walked in, the others whispered for a while, but they didn't take it to heart. And Wu Tianqi didn't say anything all the way, and brought people to those servants who were Du Shiyi's most confidants inside and outside to guard, and when they were the most strict Zhenqiang Zhai, he breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Lord Lang, the man has arrived."
Although there is no beginning and no end, it has been more than three months since he came and waited for this news, and Du Shiyi in Zhenqiang Zhai did not understand. As he gave the order to come in, he saw clearly the person who Wu Tianqi helped in, he recognized the person at a glance, and almost got up. Finally, he had been in charge for many years and was able to control his emotions, but in the end he just nodded and motioned for Wu Tianqi to help the person sit down, so that after Wu Tianqi served the tired man and drank the water, he waved his hand and ordered him to quit. When the door was closed, the dusty man let out a long sigh of relief, and then raised his head.
"Dashuai, fortunately, I am not dishonored!"
It was none other than Huya, the deputy general of the wolf guard beside Princess Gu'an, who was the most trusted person by Princess Gu'an, except for Zhang Yao!
"Thankfully!" Du Shiyi put her hand on her forehead, let out a long sigh of relief, and then asked, "What was the situation at that time?" ”
This time, Princess Gu'an arranged for someone to go from Yunzhou to the eastern capital first, and then stop for a while and then to Shanzhou, in order to let Huya come to Shanzhou as a person from Wu Jiu's side of the eastern capital, so as not to be suspected. It is also the steel and iron bones that he boiled, so that he can withstand such bumps. He grunted and drank a breath of water, and then said 1510: "In the month of Layue, your lord and Luo, Hou and other generals stopped their discussions, and quietly selected 300 people who were not concerned from the old people of the wolf guard, and went north to the Turks from Yue Niangzi to meet her department, Yue Niangzi carefully selected, and selected more than 100 people to go to the Turkic tent. ”
"After Yue Niangzi arrived at the Turkic tent, she met with Viga Khan and Meru Sip. Viga Khan is already old, and he has lost the ambition of the past, and only knows wine and women. Yue Niangzi came to congratulate the New Year with gifts, and the Viga Khan was naturally happy. And Meru thought that Yue Niangzi had agreed to his request to assassinate the Viga Khan, and was also overjoyed. On the occasion of the private meeting between the two, Yue Niangzi put forward conditions. Although Viga is old, she is no longer as brave as she used to be, but there are still many warriors in the king's tent, although she is excellent at swordsmanship, but she doesn't want to take unnecessary risks, it is better to poison first, as for those warriors in the king's tent, she has her own efforts to cut off. After the agreement, Meru sipped and agreed. ”
"When the New Year was just a few days away, when the Viga Khan was feasting on his courtiers, Melu ordered the Khan's favorite concubine, that is, his daughter, to offer wine mixed with poison, and sure enough, the Viga Khan fainted after a short time. However, just as he ordered the henchmen who were lying in ambush to kill him, intending to eradicate the dissidents in one fell swoop, Yue Niangzi burst into trouble and killed him on the spot, and then used his entourage to fight the warriors ambushed by Merus. The other Turkic nobles present were caught off guard at first, and when they saw someone taking the lead, they also fought back with all their might, and finally killed the ambush soldiers of Merus, and then in turn eradicated their forces in one fell swoop. I happened to be present at that time, and the lady of Yue was blood-stained and majestic, and the awakened Viga Khan was very impressed, and called her the daughter of Umi, and felt her life-saving grace, and gave all the pastures and children and slaves to Melu on the spot. ”
The so-called Wumi is the meaning of the goddess in the Turkic language, and the Viga Khan easily escaped death, and gave all the property and land of Meru Si to Yue Wuniang with the kindness of others, which is also the proper meaning. Today's Du Shiyi can only imagine out of thin air what kind of demeanor Yue Wuniang was like when she violently killed Mei Lu and stained her clothes with blood. He quickly suppressed his admiration and asked, "I heard the news from the DPRK and China, and the Turks sent an envoy to report the funeral, but the Viga Khan is already dead. How could it be said that Yue Niangzi saved him at that time? ”
"He's dead."
Huya said such a sentence calmly, as if he was not talking about the Turkic Viga Khan who possessed the entire north after Mo Si's death, and once beat the Tiele tribes to flee in embarrassment, and regarded the Xi Khitan as a slave and the Tubo as a dog breed, but an insignificant person.
"Viga Khan was already deeply poisoned, and he was able to wake up, but it was because Yue Niangzi took the medicine of the tiger and wolf for him, so he survived. Although he stayed up for a few days, he still didn't have time to arrange all the big things for his sons. Therefore, after only a few days on the throne, the Iran Khan was suddenly assassinated and died, and now he is succeeded by his brother Dengli Khan. Because of his youth, although his mother is Kedun, and is the daughter of the valley of desire, but the valley of desire is dead, and her power is not as good as before, therefore, now the military power is the two younger brothers of the Viga Khan, the people of the Central Plains are called the king of Zuo Xian and the king of the right Xian, and in the saying of other countries, that is, the left kills, the right kills. Because the Turks have been in turmoil for a while, we need to wait until the matter is completely settled, and then we can come and report to the commander. ”
"What about Mrs. Yue? Still dealing with the Turks in this suddenly acquired land? ”
"Mei Lu Si and Yunzhou have always been friends, if he really used to attack and kill Viga Khan, the Turks will definitely use this as an excuse to conquer Yunzhou, but Yue Niangzi stabbed Mei Lu to death with a sword in front of everyone, and then desperately saved many Turkic nobles, so he felt his life-saving grace, Viga Khan originally gave all the old places where Mei Lu Si was in the past, that is, the place where the former Youling Governor's Mansion was located, all of them were given to Yue Niangzi. However, it is next to the location of the Fugu Department, and it is close to Murowei, and even further north of the land of the Xi and Khitan, it is too remote, and Yue Niangzi found an excuse, but she gave up this place, and only asked for the brother of Mei Lusi, and the south of the Yang River is all sowing the hometown, a radius of thousands of miles, because the title of the daughter of Wumi has now spread, and there are many horse thieves and small tribes on all sides to vote. ”
A thrilling civil strife, the most difficult result was that the powerful Turks clearly showed the decline of division, and the Yunzhou people took advantage of the chaos to gain an enclave in the Turkic hinterland. There are twists and turns, and it is difficult to understand them all by listening to these words. But Du Shiyi entrusted this matter to Princess Gu'an and the people of Yunzhou to plan and implement, and naturally entrusted all the trust, at this moment, seeing that Huya was exhausted at the same time, his face showed arrogance and confidence that was difficult to hide.
"Good, very good, there is such an enclave, and the Khan of Dengli is too young to convince the people, and there are two uncles who are killing left and right, and there must be kings and ministers fighting for power, and there is also civil strife, and I can't spare my hands to take care of you. The reason why I asked you to take that place in the first place is because it is far away from Yunzhou, and even if the court gets this information, it can be said logically that Yue Niangzi just happened to meet her, and now she has already transferred that place to those Turkic warriors who saved Viga Khan with her, and she can push it clean. And with the Tangnu Mountains as a barrier, whether it is Qarluq, Hui Hui, or Ba Simi in the south, these ambitious tribes will not be able to invade for the time being, and it is just right for you to recuperate and strengthen yourself! ”
Huya hurriedly should be. However, after hesitating for a moment, he finally whispered: "Your Majesty has already approved the matter of your lordship moving back to Beijing, and has ordered the construction of a princess's mansion in Chang'an." ”
