290 Meritorious service
Since the time when the second prince can remember, he has often been compared to the eldest prince.
But it's often the one who loses.
Because his mother Concubine Liu Shufei is the niece of Empress Dowager Liu.
But when Emperor Changsheng was young, it coincided with the reign of Empress Dowager Wu, who not only killed the prince of Gaozong's original queen in order to fight for power, but also killed his own disobedient sons, and Empress Dowager Liu In order to gain a foothold in front of Empress Dowager Wu, it was commonplace to pat the horse to meet her, and more importantly, her unhappiness was vented on the sons of Ruizong and Emperor Zhongzong.
Emperor Changsheng was rubbed by Empress Dowager Liu when he was young, and when he became the emperor, he began to look down on his own Yuan Peiwang and Empress, so he blindly favored Concubine Wu Hui. Of course, this kind of pampering has two sincerity in it, but in fact, it is more because of the misfortune of childhood.
Emperor Changsheng didn't like Empress Dowager Liu and Concubine Liu Shu, so he didn't like the second prince from Concubine Liu Shu, but he was good to the other princes, and he was even better to the prince than the others. After all, he is the eldest son and has always had high hopes.
And the second prince has been living forbearantly.
In addition, his father-in-law is a chapter minister, and occasionally he deliberately mentions a little bit like that.
Therefore, the second prince has a very good reputation among the literati, and many civil servants think that he is a virtuous corporal.
Now, after nearly a month's long journey, the second prince of Corporal Lixian and Gu Yue finally arrived in Nanzhao.
The two ate and lived together along the way, and they were like brothers.
The second prince's impression of Gu Yue before had always stayed on having brute strength. But after the polo match with Tubo, his impression of Gu Yue has changed a lot.
If it weren't for the courage and resourcefulness and ruthlessness, it would be impossible for them to turn defeat into victory.
Since then, he has made up his mind to win over Gu Yue, but he has never had a chance, and now the two have become comrades, although Gu Yue also respects him with a good eye, what is the matter with him, he still patiently listens to Gu Yue's opinion, no matter how big or small, the two of them discuss it.
Nothing went wrong along the way.
After entering Nanzhao, the two of them, as the "envoys of the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty", were warmly welcomed by the king of Nanzhao.
Since the time of Tai/Zu, the Great Zhou Dynasty began to accept all countries to come to court.
Now that the prince and the general of the Great Zhou Dynasty have come to Nanzhao together, the king of Nanzhao does not dare to be disrespectful, and at the same time, questions have arisen in his heart, what are these two people here for?
"Xiao Wang is here to relax." The second prince's best thing since he was a child is to pretend to be deep, and now he has reached the realm of perfection.
He said that he was distracted, and King Nanzhao ostensibly thought he was distracted.
also specially selected a large group of beauties to send in.
The little Nanzhao has always relied on the Great Zhou to deal with the great powers, even if the second prince and Gu Yue are very young, but the king of Nanzhao is afraid of the Great Zhou behind these two people, so he has to offer them up.
The beauties also like these two nobles with identity and background very much.
The face is good-looking, and it is always necessary to take advantage of it invisibly.
The two of them pretended to leak their mouths again and said their purpose.
"Your Majesty said that I want to teach some lessons to the other edicts, and I hope to get the support of the king when the time comes."
When these words were heard in the ears of the Nanzhao people, it became that the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was dissatisfied with the other edicts, and wanted to use the Nanzhao to attack the other edicts.
The news soon spread out, one ten, ten hundreds, and soon reached the ears of the secret agents of the edicts, and they had to be more vigilant.
And the Southern Zhao is a natural barrier for the Great Zhou Dynasty to enter the various edicts.
The rest of the edicts were panicked, so they began to plan early.
There are people who stand on the main station, and there are people who master and.
The lord and the king of Nanzhao directly approached him, and sent a generous gift, wanting him to introduce the prince of the Great Zhou to him, but on the other hand, they formed an alliance with the various departments of the main battle, and deliberately found trouble with Nanzhao, not to grab food
"Those two people claim to be the envoys of the Great Zhou, but they are addicted to wine every day, drunk and dreaming of death, and they don't bring anyone, saying that they are attacking the edicts, but in fact, they are just scaring us." Someone was obviously disdainful, "Maybe it's just groundless, and the news that Nanzhao deliberately spread is just deceiving us." ”
In front of the envoys of the Great Zhou, Nanzhao's waist was straighter than before, and without saying a word, he directly sent troops, which caught the other party off guard.
When the royal city fell, he found that the person leading the troops was actually a young and handsome boy.
This kid is one against ten, and the enemy does not dare to approach at all, and he is extremely brave.
A capable person will be respected by others at all times.
Gu Yue became famous in Nanzhao in the first battle.
The losing Zhao Wang began to complain, "It's not that Xiao Wang deliberately disrespects Tian Khan, but in fact, Tubo is too strong, and Xiao Wang has to give in." ”
When Gu Yue heard this, he actually nodded, looking very sympathetic to them, but what he said was, "No wonder my majesty trusts King Nanzhao more in comparison." ”
When King Nanzhao heard this, he was very proud in his heart, and the people who complained began to be embarrassed from the bottom of their hearts.
If you lose the king, why not lose better?
Seeing that Gu Yue and the second prince were very uplifting the king of Nanzhao, they complained and took the opportunity to propose to respect Nanzhao.
Their idea was to give in first, wait until the two of them left, and then go back to their old state.
In the face of their toying eyes, Gu Yue also pretended to know nothing, after all, these edicts did not dare to offend Da Zhou to death, at least when they were there, they did not dare to mess around.
But the benefits to King Nanzhao were obvious.
He tasted the sweetness, and without waiting for the two envoys of the Great Zhou to speak, he took the initiative to ask to attack the other edicts.
Because before that, because Nanzhao has always been obedient to the Great Zhou, he was often secretly stumped by other edicts and grabbed territory, and now the people who supported him came, and the king of Nanzhao saw that the envoys of the Great Zhou were so brave and strategic, so he took the initiative to invite Gu Yue to the army to "guide".
This guidance doesn't matter, in just one month, the three edicts were annexed, the four edicts were one, and the remaining two edicts saw that the situation was not right, and dared to surrender urgently.
And King Nanzhao saw that Gu Yue was so powerful at such a young age, and he was very scared in his heart, so he directly sent it to Emperor Changsheng, willing to submit to the Great Zhou.
From the unification of the edicts to the letter of the king of Nanzhao, it was only two months in between.
Emperor Changsheng sent Wei Ming as an envoy to Nanzhao, bringing a holy decree rewarding the king of Nanzhao as the king of Yunnan.
The second prince's contribution was almost effortless, and his heart was full of emotion.
If it weren't for the boss's death, this great hero would not have anything to do with him at all.
The more he did this, the more uneven he began to feel in his heart, and on the way back, he kept thinking that he must make a good friend of Gu Yue.
It is precisely because the second prince has such a mind that in the middle of the play, Gu Yue was praised as rare in the sky and unparalleled on the earth.
Under the study of the second prince over the years, he wrote the folds all the time, and he couldn't wait to attribute all the credit to Gu Yue, and quietly told Gu Yue the content of his folds.
Gu Yue's own twists and turns, since he also began to praise the second prince, who knows how to make good use of people, advances and retreats in a certain way, and is calm and alert......
Emperor Changsheng was also very happy to see that both of them could see each other's advantages and cooperate seamlessly.
At this time, it is the winter solstice, and it is time to comfort the heavens and the earth and the ancestors.
The emperor was happy, not only went to the Taimiao to tell the ancestors and ancestors about these things, but also rewarded Gu Yan first without waiting for Gu Yue to return to Beijing.
