Chapter 11: An Eventful Season (3)
Liluo smiled slightly and said: "The song book of "Leaving the Soul" has a fate with Niangniang, as for the meeting that day, it was really Liluo who used a little spell, and asked Niangniang not to be surprised. ”
"Why are you doing this?"
"Please forgive Niangniang, it is inconvenient to tell the truth from Luo at the moment, Niangniang only needs to remember that Weichen is a friend and not an enemy." After that, he brought another cup of tea to me.
I understood that he meant to send off the guest, and I thought that even if I asked any more, I might not be able to ask what the reason was, so I got up and took my leave.
I don't know if Liluo's requiem charm is effective, or if those blessing pills really have the power of blessings, I gradually feel strong and full of strength, and later even Zhiqiu and Jingyi said that my complexion is much better.
In the summer of July, his father Zhao Jiliang was seriously ill and could not go to court.
Bao Yuan took me and visited the hospital many times. In the end, even the Queen Mother went to visit in person.
However, the imperial doctor in the palace has been diagnosed and treated for a long time, but it has not improved. Ling Xuan and Li Luo were also helpless.
In autumn and August, the father's son Yuan Zhen came to invite, and the Taoist father had something to entrust to the emperor and the mother.
When Bao Yuan and I entered the prime minister's mansion, it was almost dusk, the remnant sun was like blood, and the autumn trees were falling all over the ground.
The autumn wind was bleak, and the jackdaws fell on the branches--- and chirped ---, adding a bit of foreboding.
Bao Yuan and I clasped his fingers, his eyes full of sorrow. I know very well that since the death of Gao Zu, Bao Yuan respects his father, his father cherishes Bao Yuan, and the relationship between his father and Bao Yuan is far greater than that of the monarch and the minister.
In the inner room of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the lights and candles flickered, and the candlelight shone on the face of the father, making him more and more thin and sallow.
Father raised his hand, and Yuan Zhen listened close to me for a moment, and then cried to the two of us: "Father, please ask the emperor to come closer." ”
Bao Yuan was in tears, stretched out his hand to hold his father's thin hands, and Xiang's father coughed a few more times, and said intermittently: "Gaozu laid a foundation for my Dashu...... passed into the hands of the emperor...... There has been no beacon fire for more than ten years...... The people live in peace...... The people are abundant...... I am in danger and safe...... The Central Plains are competing for the deer...... There is a lot of voyeurism...... The emperor must not slack off...... The emperor is diligent in government...... The old minister can ask ...... today Gaozu regained his life...... "I held back my tears to see Baoyuan, he was already in tears, blindly holding his father's hand, and nodding his head in agreement.
The father gasped for breath, and after a while, he called me in a low voice: "Rui'er...... Here you go! ”
Bao Yuan got up and let me, I sobbed and approached, and my father raised his hand with difficulty to hold my hand, his hand was so cold, like a dry branch in winter.
The old man in front of me, the charity old man who drank tea and discussed poetry with me that day, has now been tortured by illness and thin, and my heart is like a knife when I look at him.
"Father...... Know that Rui'er is virtuous..... The old minister asked the mother to assist the emperor...... Protect my people of Dashu....." He shook and clasped my hands with Bao Yuan, and suddenly his face turned ruddy, as if it was a sign of returning light.
He paused, smiled at the corners of his mouth, and said, "Baoyuan...... Rui'er ..... Father Xiang is watching you from heaven...... Looking at the rivers and mountains of Dashu...... You must ..... Fortunately......" The voice has not fallen, and it has passed away for a long time.
"Father...... "Father" Bao Yuan and I wept in unison, crying bitterly.
"Father......" Yuan Zhen knelt on the ground and cried bitterly.
At this point, Zhao Jiliang, the father of the prime minister, died, and the Emperor of Dashu posthumously gave him the nickname Wensu Gong.
After three days, he mourned.
In November of that year, Shizhou assassinated Shi Tian Xinggao and rebelled, and the imperial court sent the worship official Geng Yanxuan to be ordered to conquest.
At the age of the year, the favor of the prince Xuanbao benefited the family, and Bao Yuan promoted Shen Qishan (Shen Yuefu's father) to make up for the lack of Shizhou's assassin history, and went to office when the rebellion subsided.
As soon as this edict was issued, the previous dynasty sighed, the harem sighed, and the concubines spared no effort to spoil and fight for beauty, only looking forward to the day when the mother and son were expensive, and they would light the lamp and sleep in the harem every night.
I have no children under my knees, and every time Xinning comes to visit me in the palace, she has to send a lot of supplements, but she has failed her and worried about me in vain.
Fortunately, I have Xuan Zhe by my side, even if he is not my own child, he can be regarded as raised by my own hands. The boy was very filial to me, and never disobeyed me, which made me feel very gratified, so I didn't think about some unfounded things.
Moreover, the blessings and misfortunes depend on, I know the reason very well, although I can be extremely favored in this harem, I will not be murdered by others, and I know that it is not because I have nothing to do.
After the death of his father, Bao Yuan followed his instructions and worked hard.
In the tenth year of Guangzheng (947 AD), the Khitan king Yelu Deguang led the Khitan soldiers to capture Bianjing, and the Jin lord Shi Chonggui surrendered and died.
In the first month, Jin Xiongwu Jie Du made He Jianjian kill the Khitan envoy, and surrendered my Shu State to Qin, Jie, and Cheng three states. Bao Yuan is trustworthy, ambitious again, and wants to accept it in order to plan for the future. However, in the seventh year of Guangzheng, the shame of Xiping's defeat was especially great, Bao Yuan had concerns, and I was also worried that this move would be unfavorable to the Shu soldiers.
However, Baoyuan thought about it again and again and said to me, the Khitan soldiers were plundering everywhere in the Central Plains, the people in the Central Plains were in dire straits, and the Jin relics would lead the troops and the people to fight back.
I also think it makes sense, so Bao Yuan ordered Li Jixun, the general of Zuo Qianniuwei, to be the consolation envoy of Qinzhou and go out of Qinzhou to defend it.
On the sixth day of the second month, the Shu general Li Jixun and Liu Jing, the assassin of Xingzhou, attacked and captured Guzhen. He Reconstruction, the general of the Jin Dynasty, asked me to send troops to guard the Sanguan with the soldiers and horses of the two states of Dai and Cheng in order to seize Fengzhou.
Baoyuan is ambitious because of the three states of Qin, Jie, and Cheng, how can he not look at Fengzhou. Although I tried to persuade him not to be too hasty, I did not stop him after thinking about it.
On the tenth day of the first month, 3,700 soldiers from Baoyuan sent Shannan to Sanguan.
He rebuilt the palace to make Cui Yanchen lead the troops to attack Fengzhou, but after a long time, Bao Yuan wanted to increase the army, but was blocked by the courtiers, so Fengzhou failed to conquer, Cui Yanchen had to lead the troops to retreat to Guzhen.
In the month, Bao Yuan made meritorious contributions to the Jin Dynasty and made He rebuild the meritorious service, and added the Xiongwu Festival to make He rebuild the Tongping Zhangshi. For a while, the favor is especially prosperous!
When Baoyuan was busy expanding his territory, on February 15, Liu Zhiyuan of the Jin Dynasty proclaimed himself emperor in Jinyang. According to the report from the front, it seems that there is a sense of gathering troops and horses to regain the lost territory!
As expected. In March, Guzhen was in an emergency, and the front came to report that the roads in Xingzhou were all cut off by the Jin army, and it was about to become an isolated city.
The front was in an emergency, and Bao Yuan was anxious to Zhaoshan Nanjiedu to make Sun Hanshao rush to Fengzhou to camp.
Han Shao ordered 20,000 troops to attack Fengzhou, and then divided his troops to hold the pass to cut off the enemy's reinforcement route. After several vicious battles, the siege of Guzhen was relieved.
On the 20th, Shi Feng, the defense envoy of Fengzhou, led the whole state to surrender. Bao Yuan is overjoyed and accepted. Treat the generals with favor, and reorganize the surrendered army.
So far, my Dashu has all the lands of Qin, Feng, Jie and Cheng, and has restored the territory of Wang Shu of the previous dynasty. Bao Yuan was in a good mood, and held a banquet in the palace for a few days, rewarding meritorious soldiers, and taking advantage of the wine, and I depicted a good map of the future of Shu in his heart!
Whenever this happens, I look at it with a smile and give words of encouragement at the right time, and more often I will beg God in the bottom of my heart to make the dream of this man in front of me come true, although I know how cruel the future is, but ...... Will history be wrong and omissionary?
In June, Liu Zhiyuan, the lord of Jin, changed the name of the country to Han.
