Chapter 19 Met Li Zhi and was awarded the title of Lieutenant of the Horse
After the first seven days of Helan Minyue's mother, Mrs. Han, Xu Qing took Helan Minyue to the Chang'an Branch of the Longmen Dart Bureau, and Helan Minyue grew from a girl to a young woman.
Xu Qing's 600 new army fought a battle with Wu Zetian's 8,000 cronies' army, and Xu Qing won a complete victory. Wu Zetian's sense of superiority in the world has been severely hit, and his arrogance has been restrained.
Helan Minyue saw the hope of revenge, her confidence in Xu Qing increased greatly, and her love increased greatly, being with Xu Qing was just a forced transaction, without any feelings at all, it quickly changed and became emotional.
Xuanxuanmen, the Right Guard Army and the Flying Cavalry Army fought with Xu Qing's dart game, killing and wounding thousands of people, although these three units concealed the news, but the paper could not contain the fire, Yang Sizhen was a general in the Left Guard, and had acquaintances in the Xuanxuanmen, the Right Guard and the Flying Cavalry, and he was surprised and happy and worried when he heard the news, and he was surprised that Xu Qing's dart game was rare in the world, and he was happy that his daughter had a vision and found a hero who was a hero of the world, and he was worried that Xu Qing and Wu Zetian had too deep a grudge, and the future may not be easy.
Half of Chu Zizi, Lin Fengying and the ten palace maids who married were in Shaanxi, and the rest of their homes were not far away, in the surrounding areas of Shaanxi. Xu Qing's subordinates successively took their families to the Chang'an Branch of the Longmen Dart Bureau, and after meeting with them, they were sent to the headquarters of the Youzhou Longmen Dart Bureau in batches.
The relatives of Xu Qing's twelve palace ladies are no longer controlled by the imperial court, but under the control of Xu Qing, they have broken their hearts of resistance, plus they have blocked the strong combat effectiveness of Xu Qing's new army with their own eyes, they can block ten with one, or even one by one hundred, they don't dare to have the idea of resisting at all, in addition, their first time was given to Xu Qing, Xu Qing also let them fully enjoy the happiness and joy of being a woman, and they will not have the idea of resisting, and they will never betray Xu Qing from then on.
Stunning beauties with noble bloodlines like Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang, as well as the ladies of the country and the city, the famous ladies Helan Minyue, and Yang Zhuangruo were all conquered by Xu Qing, and the only trace of reluctance of the twelve palace ladies disappeared.
A few days after a battle with Wu Zetian's cronies, 1,000 disciples of the Luoyang Branch of the Longmen Dart Bureau were ordered to come to Chang'an, and 1,000 disciples of the Taiyuan Branch of the Longmen Dart Bureau were ordered to come to Chang'an ten days later. The new army rode to Chang'an first, and the old-style dart division team wanted to escort the red dart car, but it was not fast, and it arrived a few days late.
There were not many new troops left in the Yanshan military base, and Xu Qing only asked Yang Ziyan for a company of male soldiers and a company of female soldiers, but Yang Ziyan loved her husband and was worried that Xu Qing would not have enough manpower and was not Wu Zetian's opponent, so she doubled the reinforcements of the new army and sent two more battalions of pistols and bullets.
If Xu Qing's new army could not withstand the siege of dozens of times the strength of the imperial court, Xu Qing's old army could use pistols to fight at any time, and it would be too late to learn to shoot on the battlefield. In consideration of the loyalty of the troops, in order to prevent the spread of new weapons, the size of the new army must be strictly controlled, and the new weapons must also be kept closely.
With a large number of reinforcements, especially the arrival of the new army and the replenishment of weapons and ammunition, Xu Qing no longer worried about Wu Zetian mobilizing the army to deal with him, and led four companies of male soldiers of the new army and two companies of female soldiers of the new army to enter the palace to meet Emperor Li Zhi.
The male soldiers of the New Army were dressed as dart masters, wearing swords around their waists and concealing pistols in their clothes, while the female soldiers of the New Army were ostensibly unarmed and concealed pistols in their clothes, pretending to be the maids of Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang. Xu Qing's male soldiers of the new army were blocked out of the palace gate, while the female soldiers of the new army were considered non-threatening and were allowed to enter the palace with the two princesses.
Li Zhi heard that the number of Wu Zetian's cronies in the army was more than ten times that of Xu Qing's dart division, and he suffered a big loss, and suddenly felt that Wu Zetian was not so terrible, Wu Zetian was not invincible, and warmly received Xu Qing and his two daughters.
It's just that Xu Qing and the two princesses don't eat the snacks and fruits provided by Li Zhi, they only eat the food and water they brought. Xu Qing said frankly that he was afraid that Wu Zetian's henchmen would sneak into the emperor's side and poison the food, so they didn't eat the food in the palace and didn't drink the water in the palace, so please forgive the emperor.
Wu Zetian poisoned dozens of concubines and palace maids in the palace, and he had just poisoned Mrs. Han, and Li Zhi couldn't manage his wife well, so he couldn't blame Xu Qing for not appreciating his face, and he didn't say much, which did not affect the atmosphere of the talks.
Li Zhi asked Xu Qing in a calm tone why he snatched the crown princess Yang Zhuangruo that he chose for the crown prince? Xu Qing got his two daughters and three nieces, and he was already the happiest man in the world, isn't he satisfied?
Xu Qing replied that he was an astrologer, and calculated that if Yang Zhuang was going to be elected as the crown princess, and she had a thin life, and she would soon be betrothed to the prince, she would commit suicide, and he snatched the princess who was about to be canonized in order to save people, for no other reason, please forgive the emperor, and convey his apologies to the prince.
Li Zhi was very interested in Xu Qing's "astrology master" and identity, and asked Xu Qing to count the fortunes of the Tang Dynasty.
Xu Qing said: "The Tang Dynasty is prosperous in martial arts, and it will also stop in martial arts." Xing Yu Wu is the martial arts of force, and stopping at Wu is the martial arts surnamed Wu, and Datang will be destroyed in the hands of a woman surnamed Wu within twenty years. There is a word 'mei' in the woman's name, a 'female' word on the left of the word 'mei', and a horizontal middle of the word 'corpse' in the middle, causing a tragic situation of corpses all over the field. The Tang Dynasty is about to change the dynasty and set off a bloody storm. Two of the emperor's four sons-in-law will die, the emperor's brothers and cousins will all be killed, and his family will be wiped out, and none of them will survive. The bloodline of the Li Tang royal family is almost broken, it's so miserable that the grass people can't talk anymore......"
Li Zhi's face was pale, he was about to collapse when he sat on the dragon chair, cold sweat broke out on his forehead in the winter, and he said in a trembling voice: "What you said is true? ”
Xu Qing said: "It's true, the grass people dare to swear with their lives, and everything the grass people say is true. But this is only an astrologer's prophecy of the future, and it has not happened yet. Your Majesty, don't worry too much, it's still too late for us to do some remedies from now on. ”
Li Zhi can be regarded as having seen a big scene, and when he heard this, his expression immediately improved, and he said, "How to remedy it?" ”
Xu Qing said: "As long as the emperor takes back the power that originally belonged to you, he can save the lives of your children and grandchildren, brothers, cousins, nephews, and nieces." ”
Li Zhi sighed: "The power handed over is like water spilled, and it can't be recovered!" ”
Xu Qingdao: "All things in the world are born from 'nothing', and there can be something out of nothing. Caomin has a proposal that Wu Hou build a 'North Gate Bachelor', put aside the original prime minister's deliberation body, and build a new set of nameless but real prime ministers. The emperor can use his own way to give back to others. The Western Han Dynasty set up two positions: the general and the eldest princess. The general can be a general, choose a staff, Namenke, grasp the military and political, become a big official second only to the emperor, the status of the eldest princess is second only to the prince, above the kings, you can open the house, recruit the army, choose the staff, and Namenke.
Princess Xuancheng was born to the former queen Wang and was the eldest daughter of the emperor, if the emperor canonized Princess Xuancheng as the eldest princess and gave the eldest princess the privilege of recruiting troops and recruiting guests, then Princess Xuancheng would soon be able to establish an army to protect the emperor and the crown prince. The grass people are not talented, and they are willing to recommend themselves as generals, and the grass people ask the emperor to change the princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang to the grass people, and then seal the grass people as the captain of the horses, and then enter the general. The grass people will soon be able to gather those loyal to the emperor and form a strong army to protect the emperor. In this way, the Tang Dynasty will change dynasties, and the tragedy of the purge of the Li Tang royal family will not happen. Please think twice. ”
Li Zhi pondered for a while and said, "Your proposal is very good, but after all, it is the system of the Western Han Dynasty, which is completely different from the system of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also different from the former Sui Dynasty." I am afraid that there will be many obstacles to implementation. Not only are the queen's people opposed, but also my cronies, they don't want to have an extra boss out of thin air in addition to me and the crown prince, and you are still so young, and you are not the son of a noble lord, I am worried that if they are not convinced, they will fall to the queen's side. ”
Xu Qing entered the palace to see Li Zhi, he was full of arrogance and wanted to do something, but unfortunately Li Zhi was the same as recorded in the history books, with a cowardly personality and difficult to do. Xu Qing sighed in his heart: "Adou who can't be helped!" Datang is about to be destroyed in your hands! ”
Li Zhi said: "Don't be disappointed, I decided to change Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang to you, make you the captain of the horse, allow Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang to open the mansion, recruit guests, and form a private army, but you must be loyal to the royal family." Military expenditures are collected from the state treasury. ”
Xu Qing's expectations were slightly satisfied, and he said, "Emperor Xie." ”
Li Zhi smiled and said, "It's time for you to change your words." ”
Xu Qing didn't understand.
Princess Xuancheng reminded: "From now on, when you see your father, you will call your father and son like me and Yiyang." ”
Xu Qing then said to Li Zhi: "Son-in-law thanks to my father." ”
Li Zhi nodded happily. After that, Li Zhi immediately summoned his ministers, changed Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yiyang to Xu Qing, canceled the title of the horse they had chosen, renamed Xu Qing as their new horse, and gave them the title of "Captain of the Horse". "Captain of the Horse" is just a name and has no real power, but with this title, you can get a military position and lead troops to war. This is very important to Xu Qing, since he is the concubine of Princess Xuancheng and Princess Yicheng, Xu Qing is destined to be the enemy of Wu Zetian, Xu Qing feels that it is necessary for him to find like-minded people in the military system of the Tang Dynasty, or to find helpers, or to develop his own power, "Captain of the Horse" is equivalent to publicly announcing that Xu Qing is the loyal guardian of the Li Tang royal family, this title comes very timely.
