Liyang officialdom has three same exquisiteness, that is, the same door and the same township in the same year, the Ministry of Shangshu Zhao Youling and the Ministry of Labor Lang Yuanyu is such a coincidence, the same teacher from Zhang Julu, the same is the old Northern Han Jinmen County of the Han Shu children, in the Yonghui years together to participate in the imperial examination, a champion and a list, so that in the past, there were very few people in the past Jinshi and the first Kinmen County became famous overnight, if you add a like-minded, Zhao Yuan and the two can be said to have four same. The two mansions are only two or three hundred steps apart, and the door-to-door visits between them are very frequent, and the neighbors have long been strange, today the Zhao Mansion not only came to Yuan Yu, but also Zhao Shangshu's in-law Yin Maochun, the two important ministers and ministers of this dynasty have children, the younger generations are about the same age, and the children of the three surnames are mostly friends with each other, Wang Yuanran, the youngest son of Wang Xionggui of the household department, was drunk and molested Zhao Youling's second daughter at that time, of course, he stabbed a hornet's nest, not to mention that he also beat up the only son of Han Xingyan, the only son of the criminal department who came out to persuade him to fight, so he didn't die and provoked the four families in one breath, but"A blessing in disguise", in this way, the name of Wang Yuanran's first son in Jingshi was confirmed, although he was dragged to the door of Zhao's mansion by the father who was the head of the household department and knelt for half an hour, but this did not prevent Wang Gongzi from being in the limelight in Tai'an City for a while. Yuan Yu has no wife and no children, but he has the best child relationship among the younger generations, when Zhao Youling Yin Maochun's parents took the cellar winter snow to make tea, Yuan Yu still mixed with a large group of young men and women to drink, personally hot wine and handed over wine, and did not feel that it was a loss, more than a dozen juniors were accustomed to it, and they also felt that it was justified, like Yin Maochun's eldest son Yin Changgeng sat on Uncle Yuan's neck every day to pee when he was a child, and the uncle and nephew also joked that they would make an appointment that Yin Changgeng would give Yuan Shilang a pension in the future, so angry that he ran to the closed gate of the Yuan Mansion and scolded for a long time without wearing shoes, Yuan Yu was not weak at all, when he opened the door, he was holding the ear wax with one hand, and the wine pot that he led from the Qinglou with the other, and asked Han Shilang with a hippie smile if he wanted to drink, which made Han Lin so angry that he broke off his friendship with Yuan Yu from then on, but after that, Han Xingyan often secretly asked Yuan Yu to beg for wine, and Han Lin couldn't control it if he wanted to, so he simply couldn't see it and was not upset.

Yin Changgeng Han Xingyan said that the two of them as the Beijing officials of the Eight Classics, both participated in the early dynasty, but their rank was not enough to enter the palace, the wind and clouds in the palace, they naturally couldn't listen to it, at this time Yuan Yu sat on the couch, holding Yin Maochun's eldest grandson in his arms, while dipping the chopsticks in the wine to let the children open their mouths and touch them, while painting and painting to tell them about the eight immortals crossing the sea in the temple, by Yuan Shilang then added oil and vinegar, so that everyone was shocked to hear it, and it happened that Zhang Shoufu's daughter in the boudoir and the youngest daughter of Yin Chuxiang also entered the house, Yuan Yu was like an old naughty boy and asked the two girls to rub his shoulders and knock his back as an uncle, Zhang Gaoxia, who was "notorious" among the children of Tai'an City, glared, she drew her sword two inches and then returned it to the sheath, and Yuan Shilang, who was familiar with the temper of this woman, had to smile, but fortunately Yin Heyun was much more well-behaved, sitting on the edge of the couch and kneading the shoulders of this uncle. Yin Changgeng glanced at the tall Zhang Gaoxia, quickly retracted his gaze, and chatted with his daughter-in-law who returned to her parents' house today about trivial housework, Han Xingyan remained silent, but sighed in his heart, how could he not know that Brother Yin had thoughts about Zhang Gaoxia, before becoming the groom's official, all friends of the same age were congratulating Brother Yin on becoming Zhao Shangshu's son-in-law, and they all said that Yin and Zhao were the right people, and they were even more talented and beautiful. But Yin Changgeng just dragged him Han Xingyan to a small restaurant to drink stuffy wine that night, Han Xingyan exhaled, or how to say that love is the most difficult to understand? The crown princess competed, so far no man can say that her, swordsmanship is also extremely good, has studied under the Dongyue Sword Pool Grand Master Song Nianqing and the first kendo master Qi Jiajie in Beijing, she naturally what embroidered pillows, even Tangxi Sword Immortal Lu Baijie also appreciated her kendo talent, the eldest prince Zhao Wu has suffered in the hands of Zhang Gaoxia, this woman, in Tai'an City is indeed the woman who can walk sideways, anyway, if she is single-handed, no one will be able to beat her, fight for her family background? I'm sorry, her father is Zhang Julu, her father-in-law is Huan Wen, and there are a large number of famous temples like Yuan Yu who left Zhang Dang but still missed her, who would dare?

Yuan Yu also wanted to use chopsticks to dip the young grandson of Yin Chuxiang into wine, but Zhang Gaoxia, who couldn't stand it, snatched the child, Yuan Yu had to change the topic and ask, "Where did you talk about it just now?"

Zhao Shangshu's youngest son, Zhao Wenwei, was still a teenager, and said happily: "Uncle Yuan just said that Jin Saburo of the country's son prison has a blue nose and swollen face somehow!"

Yuan Yu said with a smile: "Yes, this old fist, it was played by our old man Tan Tan Weng Huan, it is really tricky and spicy, poor Jin sacrifice wine first annoyed the Yao family, and now he was beaten by the old man Huan, who used to be the leader of half of his officialdom. So you melon skin babies, in the future, you must remember to be an official with your tail between your legs, don't get too carried away, there is always a mountain high, whether it is Uncle Yuan or your father, the tall hat is not small, right? ”

The three families know the roots, and there is Yuan Yu here, there is no taboo at all, Han Xingyan frowned and said in a low voice: "Uncle Yuan, although the Jin sacrifice wine habit is a blow to Beiliang, and he uses this to earn fame and reputation in the court and the opposition, and he has some inferior appearances, but after all, it is beneficial to the court and society, and he does have many high-level insights, which makes people can't help but be amazed, he and Yao have to be needle-pointed inside and outside the Guozi Prison, which is a good thing for the left servant to shoot the adult, why do you want to fight?

Yuan Yu took a sip of soju, subconsciously rubbed his ears, and said with a smile: "Old man Huan, where would you care about such trivial things, you guys, too young, when I entered the court with your father, Lord Shoufu's temper was very good, but it was the old man Huan who was bad, Uncle Yuan was not less scolded by the old man in the ear." By the way, if you have heard about Old Man Huan beating Jin Lanting, even if you hear about it, it will not be good if it is in this house, otherwise I will have a headache from your father's words. ”

Yuan Yu saw that Yin Changgeng wanted to speak and stopped, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, shouted happily, stretched out the wine glass and let Han Xingyan fill a full glass, grabbed a peanut and threw it into the wine glass, the wine is a good wine, it can hang the cup, so even if the wine is already above the mouth of the cup, it still does not overflow in the slightest, Lord Shilang looked down at the ripples, a little trance, raised his head and regained his calm, gently shook the wine glass and smiled: "Zhilu Dao What do you want to ask the most, what about this matter, it's not that you can't say it, it's just ......"

The woman who was teasing Yin Maochun's grandson said angrily: "I just didn't hear it." ”

Yuan Yu smiled, raised his head and drank all the spirits, chewed the peanuts full of wine, and said with an intoxicated face: "Wu Feng Eighteen, the word Li, it is a genuine evil, when the old master Song wrote "Interpretation", it was the first emperor who instructed to change this word from evil to beauty, but it was at the bottom of the eighteen beautiful words, the old shoufu, that is, the teacher of Uncle Yuan's teacher, well, it is our Zhang Nuxia's father's master, who has always been very resentful of the King of Beiliang, and the first emperor has not had a unique mind in this move. This thought did not surface until this year's stunning. Today, His Majesty has given this word, and it is even more heartfelt. With His Majesty's bearing, he will not give General Xu any bad words, and the other seventeen words of good words, if they are generously given, the hall will be in a mess that day. After talking about the imperial court, let's talk about Beiliang, the young man who became the king of Beiliang from the hereditary repudiation of His Royal Highness the Prince, for such a nickname that is not up or down, will he accept it or not? If he does not accept the holy decree......"

Han Xingyan smiled and said, "Does this guy want to tell the world that their Xu family is going to rebel?"

Yuan Yu put down his wine glass, laughed at Han Xingyan's judgment, and continued: "If Bei Liang swallows his anger and accepts this holy decree, with Bei Liang's loyalty to the old vassal king, the new vassal king will undoubtedly lose the hearts of the army and the people, which is tantamount to demolishing his own house." Uncle Yuan said this to you, do you think that young King Beiliang will accept or not accept the holy decree?

Han Xingyan thought for a while and said with a smile: "I bet that guy still doesn't dare not take it, it's nothing more than trying to turn big things into small things, pretending to be light and light, and trying his best to suppress the nickname." ”

Yin Changgeng frowned and said: "It's difficult, the scholars go to the cold, but they are all watching, even if the news is blocked in Beiliang Road, the people don't know much, but how can so many scholars have no news." It is even more difficult to receive the holy decree is not filial piety, 300,000 iron horsemen must despise the new king, it is disloyal not to accept, many scholars who rushed to Beiliang will also have ideas, anyway, the new vassal king is destined to be difficult to do, one is not properly disposed of, and it will be unpleasant on both sides, and it is not a person inside and out. ”

Yuan Yu glanced at Zhang Gaoxia, twisted his fingers in the wine glass, and laughed softly: "This is the first move of the new chess game between the imperial court and Beiliang, and then the new vassal king will keep filial piety for three years, and no one in the court is willing to ask for a revenge for the new vassal king, and this mid-game, which takes three years, is even more of a headache." Even if you survive the middle game and solve the anxious internal worries, I am afraid that you will face a hasty ending, once Beimang insists on beating Beiliang first, hehe......"

Yuan Yu stopped talking.

Han Xingyan whispered, "Sounds like this new Liang King will have a miserable life in the future?"

Yin Changgeng sneered: "It's extremely miserable. ”

Yuan Yu left the couch and staggered: "Drunk, drunk, go to your father to drink hangover tea." ”

Yuan Yu habitually rubbed his earlobes with both hands, swaying out of the house, at this time the spring breeze was still wrapped in cold, and was blown by the wind, and he was excited, turned his head and saw Zhang Gaoxia following behind him, slowed down his steps, and laughed at himself: "My Yuan Yu is the most unpromising one in the 'Yonghui Spring', and the old man Huan scolded the most and fiercely in those years, and he also disappointed Lord Shoufu." ”

Zhang Gaoxia said coldly, and then turned around and went to Yin Changgeng Han Xingyan's side.

"It's really the biggest disappointment!"

As if he hadn't heard anything, Yuan Yu continued to walk forward, staggering.

This Yuan Bangyan, who was only a waiter in the Ministry of Works, stopped in front of a boulder of Spring God Lake, which was two people high, and smiled heartily.

————

Strange to say, Shoufu Zhang Julu in a huge family, neither a strict father nor a loving father, never interfered in family affairs, treat several children, has always held a self-fending cold attitude, the eldest son does not seem to inherit the knowledge and talent of Shoufu's father, do nothing, in a county on the edge of Gyeonggi with a population of less than 3,000 households served as a county magistrate, as a full six years have not been able to climb a step, in fact, to this day, the official of that state and county still does not know that this person is the son of Lord Shoufu. The second son is just a nerd, and he failed to rely on the family blessing to enter the Hanlin Academy to become Huangmenlang, and his nationality is unknown. The youngest son can only be regarded as idle, but he doesn't even have the courage to divide half of the evil, over time, even if he is Zhang Shoufu's little son, Wang Yuanran, who has obviously lost a lot of his family background, doesn't like to take him to play with him, and he feels that this guy is too unproductive, and it is embarrassing to bring it out. Zhang Shoufu's daughters married to the door is also mediocre, every time they go back to their parents' house, they don't even see their father, even if Zhang Julu has nothing to do at home, he just can't move in the study, never shows up, and the daughters only dare to take those husbands who can't stand steadily when they see Shoufu's father-in-law, standing at the door of the study across the door, timidly saying hello, Zhang Shoufu is at most not light or heavy, and many times simply ignore it.

Zhang Shoufu occasionally saw his grandson who could only walk, so he could smile a little. So in the house, the only one who can say a few words to this powerful father is Zhang Gaoxia, who has not yet married.

The purple-haired and blue-eyed Lord Shoufu sits alone in the dimly lit study today, this study is the Lei Chi of Zhang's Mansion, and even his daughter Zhang Gaoxia can't walk in, and the characters who have been able to sit here for so many years are naturally even more numerous, Huan Wen is counted as one, because there is only one chair in the room, and whoever sits down means that Lord Shoufu must stand.

Zhang Julu has never been interested in wine and food, nor has he taken a concubine, his wife is the daughter of the old Shoufu, when the old woman married Zhang Julu, there was a saying that the daughter of the first assistant was the first wife in the capital, and when the husband also became the first assistant, he was even more respectful, even if the current queen Zhao Zhi saw it, she had to treat each other politely. It's just that the relationship between the two is as light as water, and they can't say a few words all year round, and they respect each other like guests and more like ice. Zhang Julu is not interested in the nineteen paths, but is very obsessed with the chess pioneered by Huang Longshi, but except for Huan Wen, an old friend, he rarely fights with others on the chessboard, and more often he plays with himself, and he has been playing for more than 20 years, and he is not bored. At this time, Zhang Julu moved the red and black chess pieces on the chessboard, and the chessboard was carved from ivory, and the expensive chess pieces were sent by Yuan Yu back then. The champion list has its eyes to explore flowers every year, but the "young and handsome" who entered the court's field of vision in the short four years of the Yonghui Spring are now the famous ministers in the temple, so that they are destined to leave a large number of beautiful words in the history. These powerful people who are not young at the moment, Yuan Yu is the most "meaningful" one, recognized as the most talented, but the reputation is the most inconspicuous, the most out-of-tant-nature, the most unscrupulous, resting on ordinary civil servants, this is called celebrity and merry, but for an official who wants to become a cabinet minister, such an image is very fatal. So at that time, who should take over the mantle of Zhang Dang, and which surname should Zhang Lu be replaced, no one would have thought of the Yuan Shilang who was in the Ministry of Industry, not to mention Zhao Youling, Wang Xionggui, Yin Maochun, and even Han Lin, who was of the same rank and rank, was more brilliant than Yuan Yu, it is hard to imagine that Yuan Yu was the first of these five people to cross the threshold of the fourth grade, but it is a pity that it is useless to have a good first hand in the overall situation, and officialdom is a place that emphasizes gradual and gradual progress, and stamina is becoming more and more important, otherwise there will only be a dismal end for the tiger.

Zhang Julu grabbed a chess piece between his fingers, gently tapped a bunch of "dead" chess pieces stacked on the side of the chessboard, and said to himself: "Chess is a good chess, but it is not a good chess, and it is not a good chess to play freely." If you close it too tightly at this time, you can only either not put it away, or you have to put too much. But it's also human nature, after losing for so many years, if you don't get a city back, you won't even have a chance to win him once in the future. ”

The first assistant glanced at the scattered chessboard, lost interest, stood up, walked to the window, the green willows in the courtyard were only half yellow, and it was really spring.

Zhang Julu fell into deep thought, turned around and went to the chessboard to pick up a red chess piece, engraved with the word "phase".

Zhang Julu smiled.

"Take advantage of Yuan Benxi's plan. Item-for-item, it's time to hand it over to you. ”

When the holy decree was about to reach the border of Beiliang Road, a rider quietly left the city in the early morning.

The man in white, carrying a stick of plum wine, left Beijing along the royal road.

On this day, in the morning of the dynasty, in the dull spring thunder outside the hall, Song Tanglu, the eunuch who was in charge of the seal, read out three holy decrees: Lu Daolin, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, resigned from his official position and returned to his hometown. Supplemented by the Ministry of Works.

Chen Zhibao resigned from his official position, and became the king of Western Shu. The secretary of the military department was promoted by the squire Lu Baijie.

The capital shook.

It is rumored that there are several old ministers who staggered out of the column and knelt on the ground, crying silently, and directly admonished the Son of Heaven in court, and his words could not be subtle, and bluntly told that Chen Zhibao could not let the tiger return to the mountain, and said that Beiliang was a lesson from the past, and it was just a matter of raising a tiger once, how could Chen Zhibao gain power again.

His Majesty the Emperor replied with the words "Nothing to do and retreat from the court".

As a result, the two new scholars, Yuan Yu and Lu Baijie, who were promoted to one level respectively, did not have too many congratulatory voices.

In the twilight, a middle-aged white-clothed monk took a woman into the city with him very absurdly, now everyone knows that the imperial court is wantonly destroying the Buddha, the city gate armor soldiers are the two men and women widened their eyes, a look of incredible, this monk is coming to Tai'an City to find death? The people of the capital who are accustomed to seeing big scenes also look sideways, and their eyes are similar to looking at monsters.

The woman with an ordinary posture quipped softly: "When I wanted to see you, I couldn't see you on tiptoe, so I had to jump and jump." ”

The white-clothed monk touched his bald head, smiling warmly, "At that moment, I felt that the daughter of a family had really good foot strength, and she jumped for several miles." ”

The woman twisted him and snorted: "When you arrive in the capital, don't hook up with foxes!"

"How can I be? ”

"As long as there is a shameless vixen running to hook up with you, see if I don't clean you up!"

"It's a bit hard...... Daughter-in-law, you can do it now. ”

"Blow, let you blow! Look who recognizes you now? Besides, those women who are still thinking about it are already old, and I don't care about them!"

"Daughter-in-law, don't put it in your eyes, take it to heart. It's better to look at it with peace of mind. ”

"Looking for a cut, isn't it?"

“......”

"Is there really anyone in this world who believes that eating your meat can lead to immortality?"

"Alas. ”

"If the heart is not sincere, what good is it for Jiazi to eat fast and keep the precepts. If the heart is not good, what is the use of a hundred years of monkhood? I think it's better to burn incense and pray to God and worship the Buddha, than to save your own blessings and become a bodhisattva. ”

"Huh, daughter-in-law, you also went to listen to Abbot Huixin's lecture?

"Hmph! At that time, I borrowed money from the old abbot, and the old monk obviously had money, but he said that he had no money, so he talked to me about this!

"Ha, daughter-in-law, Abbot Huixin said that he didn't have any money, and he didn't say anything, and those silvers seemed to him to be the bricks of the Buddhist temple and the pages of the Buddhist scriptures......"

"Oh, didn't you let Ben Nanbei secretly hide that silver from the old abbot?"

"Ha Luha, daughter-in-law, look at it, there are a lot of people in Tai'an City. ”

"I miss our plums, and I also miss the north and south. ”

"I want to, too. ”

"Hey, who are the two men in front of you who are looking at you vigorously? Could it be that besides Huang Longshi's guy, there are men who want to rob me of men? Beware, you go and help me find a brick!

"Well, one is His Majesty the Emperor, and the other is Yuan Benxi. ”

"Then I'll buy rouge and go to ......"

"Shall I borrow some silver from them?"

"I'm stupid, can I borrow money from the old abbots and not pay it back, but if I borrow money from them, can I not pay it back?"

"That's right. ”

The two people in front of them clasped their hands together, and although they did not believe in Buddhism, they still bowed to the white-clothed monk who had traveled thousands of miles to the west.

But the white-clothed monk turned around and smiled at the back of his daughter-in-law leaving.

Nanzhao Huaizhou is not very peaceful, all the way to the road, full of fleeing people, sloping wooden beams, tomb-like black gravel piles. The ancient wooden merchant road on the river where the five rivers meet, has lost the prosperity and liveliness of the past, and there is not a single boat on the ferry wharf.

A little monk and a girl stood by the ferry stream, the girl lay on the ground, poked her head out and used the fairly clear stream water as a mirror, carefully brushing the green silk of her forehead and sideburns.

The exhausted girl sat up, patted the dust in front of her, and said helplessly: "Stupid north and south, those refugees can't eat enough, what's the use of you giving them lectures? ”

"Master said that the meaning is born ......"

"Stop, stop, listen to you tell people the scriptures, I will feel hungry, if you talk again, I will really starve to death. ”

"Oh. I'll get you something to eat!"

The little monk and the girl suddenly came from behind a burst of yin and yang strange words, the girl looked sideways, her brows were furrowed, it was a group of ruffians who hung their children, as many as thirty people, sturdy, most of them wore animal skins and hung their shoulders, compared to ordinary swingers, they were obviously much more powerful, probably the so-called Wuxi barbarians on the rivers and lakes. The girl stood up and tugged at the cuffs of the little monk's robe, her eyes signaling that he couldn't afford to be provoked. Staying in the past, she didn't speak so well, when it came to fighting and beating people, she was still so-so, but after bringing the stupid north and south around her, she rarely caused trouble. These Wuxi barbarians kept talking foul language, but the two of them couldn't understand the awkward dialect, but the eyes of the barbarians said everything, and they fell in love with the girl next to the little monk. Because of the Huangmu battle for the river case, the Wuxi area of Huaizhou was affected by the war, and the Liyang Imperial Court was not effective in controlling the Nanzhao, and some of the powerful ones did not do less to rob the merchants of the Central Plains while the fire was burning, and many Zhuangzi shops were swept away.

The girl whispered, "Let's jump into the stream." ”

The little monk shook his head and said, "Aren't you hungry, how can you have the strength to swim in the water." ”

The girl was so angry that she wanted to knock the stupid man on the head, but the little monk had already stepped forward alone, clasped his hands together, and stopped in the middle of the road.

A Wuxi barbarian stepped forward quickly, punched the little bald donkey who was looking for death, took a few steps back, shook his wrist, felt pain for a while, turned his head and said a lot.

The next Wuxi barbarian trotted up with a sinister smile, jumped high, and kicked the strange little monk's chest to death.

The little monk's figure shook slightly, but his expression was still calm.

The group of Wuxi barbarians were obviously shocked, and several of them began to draw their sharp scimitars.

The girl was about to step forward and drag the little monk to jump into the stream, but the little monk turned his head and grinned, shaking his bald head with a resolute look in his eyes.

The little monk turned around again, chanted silently, folded his palms and stretched them out a foot, and then suddenly closed them.

Wuxi Barbarian was stunned for a moment, mistakenly thinking that he had hit the iron plate, but after waiting for a while, there was no movement around, and one of the swordsmen knocked his shoulder with the back of his knife, and he came with a sneer.

The little monk's robe fluttered.

"I'm a Buddha. ”

In the calm stream, there was a sudden burst of stormy waves without warning.

A stream of water gathered to form a hideous green dragon as a heavenly king's whiskers! Bow your head and roar like thunder at the group of Wuxi barbarians!

scared everyone out.

The girl, who had never bought a box of rouge since leaving home this time, sat on the edge of the ferry, without any surprise, but with a gloomy expression.

The little monk scratched his head, squatted beside the girl, and muttered for a long time, and finally spoke.

"Li Zi, I'm just a monk, I don't know anything, I can only chant scriptures. ”

"Do you have to become a Buddha if you chant sutras?!

"Lizi, are you hungry?

“......”

"Something?"

“......”

"Li thing?"

“......”

The little monk sighed, sighed and looked into the distance with his cheeks.

The girl, with her back to the little monk, lifted her sleeves and wiped her cheeks.

A convoy of 100 elite light riders has already seen the Youzhou boundary monument, and a few steps further is Beiliang Road.

In the carriage with a bright yellow curtain sat a great eunuch with a seal ribbon, holding a gold-lacquered box that he didn't dare to leave when he slept.

The closer the old eunuch got to Beiliang, the harder his eyelids jumped, and he kept telling himself that as long as he set foot in the territory of Beiliang Dao, he would be satisfied, even if he died violently on the way, he could be regarded as carrying the holy decree to the land of Beiliang Dao. However, after all, he was lucky, and after thinking about it, he still did not think that the young new feudal king would dare to send someone to assassinate or refuse to accept the holy decree.

Then the carriage stopped suddenly, and the old eunuch of the Seal Ribbon Prison felt the unusual breath, lifted the curtain and looked at it, and his heart sank at once.

Near the Youzhou boundary monument, there are countless iron horses that have spread to the end of the post road in the field of vision.

Before the Qingming Dynasty after the spring equinox in the first year of Xiangfu, the convoy escorting the holy decree had not yet entered Beiliang, and was expelled by two thousand Beiliang iron horsemen for 300 miles.

At the same time, there was a force of 8,000 cavalry soldiers in Zhulou Military Town, Hezhou, and 6,000 soldiers and horses pointed directly at Tieshuang City in Hezhou.

The Holy Decree shall not enter the North Liang inch.
