Section 29 Temporary Representation of the Government
Just as I was chatting with Wang Zhe, the imperial uncle suddenly came out of the main hall and said loudly to me: "King Hanzhong, the queen mother summons you, come quickly!"
After hearing this, I immediately said goodbye to Wang Zhe, turned around and followed the imperial uncle into the main hall, and came to Dahua Palace to meet the Empress Dowager Meng directly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Empress Dowager Meng cried silently, sad!
I hurriedly asked, "Queen Mother, how is Your Majesty's injury?"
Empress Dowager Meng shook her head and said, "Your imperial brother was bleeding a lot from an arrow in his chest, and he was so young and weak that he was frightened, so he was delirious and still unconscious!"
I was depressed when I heard this, this assassin Jinnyima is vicious, and this is intent on killing our royal family. Luckily, I reacted quickly, otherwise that arrow would have killed me!
Seeing that I was silent, my face became a little flustered, and the Empress Dowager Meng said to me in a hoarse voice: "Yu'er, your imperial brother still doesn't know if he can survive this catastrophe, and you can't mess up, child! Now that Your Majesty has an accident, there will be chaos inside and outside the court! The country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the affairs of the court cannot be delayed for a day! The queen mother is sad and can't control herself, and it may be difficult to sit in front of hundreds of officials, Yu'er should temporarily replace the government for her brother to stabilize people's hearts!"
After speaking, Empress Dowager Meng summoned Xiao Qing and Uncle Huang in again, and then handed over a holy decree to the chief eunuch beside her in front of the two of them, and said to the two: "Uncle Huang, Lord Fengchang, Your Majesty is seriously injured in bed and cannot listen to the government in the court! Today, Wang Yingjue of Hanzhong is ordered to temporarily act as the government of the court, and the chief steward will read out the ministers with the holy decree, and the two of you will be the witnesses to assist the king of Hanzhong with all your might! If there are ministers in the court who try their best to oppose those who create chaos, they will be punished immediately!"
Uncle Huang was shocked when he heard this, and after hesitating for a moment, he replied with Xiao Qing: "Obey!"
After hearing this, Empress Dowager Meng waved her hand sadly at us and said, "Go, go to the morning immediately!"
Looking at the sad appearance of the Empress Dowager Meng, we didn't dare to ask more, so we had to bow and leave the Dahua Palace!
On the top of the main hall, I stood in the same column with the emperor's uncle, and hundreds of civil and military officials entered the palace one after another, and the chief eunuch spread out the holy decree in his hand, and tore his throat and read it out loud: "At the beginning of the new year, all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, Your Majesty's ancestor was unfortunately assassinated, fortunately, the imperial doctor treated his life in time, and it will take time for His Majesty to recuperate from his injuries in bed! However, the country cannot be left without an owner for a day, and the major affairs of the court and China cannot be delayed for a day, and the king of Hanzhong is now ordered to preside over the government for his brother, and the affairs of the court and the central government are decided by the king of Hanzhong!" The ministers should do their best to assist the king of Hanzhong in handling state affairs, and must not violate them, and if there is anyone who has the intention of taking the opportunity to create chaos, he will not be forgiven!"
After reading it, the ministers were a little dazed, and the imperial uncle immediately came out and said: "The empress dowager has an order, ordering us and other ministers to jointly assist the king of Hanzhong in ruling the country! If there is anyone who resists the decree and does not respect it, he will be punished with the crime of treason, and all civil and military officials are like this, without exception!"
The ministers were shocked when they heard this, but Wang Zhe seemed more calm, and soon he led the ministers to kneel and kowtow, and called out loudly: "The ministers obey the order!"
Then the eunuchs began to remove the seats on the stage, leaving only the emperor's dragon chair on the high platform, and then the eunuchs moved out a large chair and placed it seriously under the dragon chair!
The chief eunuch smiled and said to me, "King Hanzhong, please take a seat!"
I nodded, walked up the steps and sat down under the dragon chair, which was much more comfortable than a cushion!
At this time, the chief eunuch held his head high, tore his throat and shouted: "Hundreds of civil and military officials are in the ranks, and the early dynasty has begun, please start playing!"
As soon as the governor's words were finished, Zhang Tingwei, who was in charge of investigating the assassination of Taimiao, immediately came out of the ranks, and he bowed his hand and said: "My lord is above, and the assassination case of Taimiao has been concluded!"
I said casually: "Since Lord Tingwei has closed the case, please quickly reveal the real culprit behind the scenes!"
Zhang Tingwei bowed his head and replied, "Obey the order!" The lower officials thoroughly inspected the body of the assassin and found that many of the items carried by the assassin were all belonging to the Southwest Yi Clan Dian Kingdom!"
I frowned and agreed, "Dian Kingdom?"
I remember that the ancient Dian Kingdom finally perished during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and the time is about the same! This Great Qin Dynasty lasted for hundreds of years, and the Western Han Dynasty never appeared in this world at all, so the ancient Dian regime is still there.
Uncle Huang immediately interrupted my contemplation and said loudly: "The various tribes of the Southwest Yi were originally the territories of my Great Qin, and after the fall of the Great Qin, the Yi tribes have stood on their own! In order to protect the old Qin rivers and mountains, my Great Yong Kingdom has conquered the various tribes of the Nanyi several times, but the terrain of the land of Nanyi is complex and the road is far away, and there are still large areas of the land of the Yi tribe that have not yet been attached!"
I nodded and asked casually, "What is the situation in Nanyi now?"
At this time, Wang Zhe described: "Since the Xiongnu destroyed Yelang and won Baiyue, all parts of the southwest Yi belonged to the most powerful Dian State. The Dian people seized the opportunity to grow stronger and expand in all directions, annexing Kunming and other Yi tribes one after another, and gaining the land of the southwest! The king of Dian sent envoys to Yongzhou many times, and even demanded that my Dayong return to his southwestern territory, but we immediately refused. This time, the king of Dian sent people to Yongzhou to assassinate us, which is also a blatant provocation to our great Yongguo, and the people of Dian are arrogant and have the intention of opening up their territory and expanding their territory to the north! If they are not punished as soon as possible, I am afraid that the Dian people will definitely raise troops to attack!"
Uncle Huang sneered: "Little Dian Kingdom dares to be so rampant, isn't my Dayong Kingdom afraid that he won't succeed!"
Wang Zhe glanced at the emperor's uncle, continued to salute me, and said: "The Dian Kingdom is now compared with the past, and its momentum cannot be underestimated! Today, the Dian Kingdom has a jurisdiction of several hundred miles, nearly one million people, and no less than 50,000 elite soldiers! There is a great trouble for the Xiongnu on the northeast side of my Dayong, and now the Yunnan people on the south side are pressing step by step, and I ask the king of Hanzhong to decide where to go!"
Before I could speak, Uncle Huang immediately clasped his fists and said: "The soldiers are coming to block, and the water is coming to cover the earth; the danger in the south must be guarded against! The Dian people have openly done evil in my Taimiao, hurting my majesty and insulting my great mediocrity, which is unbearable! Raising troops for a thousand days and using troops for a while, this king is willing to lead the army of Shu to the south to conquer, and will not give up if he does not destroy the Dian country!"
Wang Zhe was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly stopped: "Uncle Huang, don't be impulsive, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run!"
Uncle Huang turned his head and asked, "What should I do according to the Prime Minister's wishes?"
Wang Zhe looked up at the top and said slowly: "The new prosperity of the Dian Kingdom, the King of Dian is working hard, and he should avoid its edge." However, the Dian Kingdom is a barbarian state, and its ambition is very small, and a small favor can make it enjoyable! When we send people to give countless jewels and beauties to the King of Dian and allow him to conquer all the ethnic groups in Xirong! The King of Dian has coveted our western territory for a long time, and when he learns that I am allowed to take it, he will definitely point to Xirong and make friends with me! In this way, I will have no worries in the southern border!"
Uncle Huang was stunned for a moment after hearing this, lowered his head and thought silently!
Seeing that both of them stopped talking, Xiao Qing came out at this time and said: "The prime minister's plan to kill people with a knife is really good, but the lower officials dare not agree!"
"Oh?", Wang Zhe asked Xiao Qing sideways, "I don't know if Lord Fengchang has any objections?"
Xiao Qing flashed her beautiful eyes, and said confidently: "Xirong is adjacent to my Shu and Baima in the east, if Xirong really falls into the hands of the Dian people, my western border will be adjacent to the Dian country! My Dayong originally only had the worries of the east, north, and south, but I will end up with enemies on all sides! However, the various tribes of Xirong do not belong to my Dayong state for the time being, but the various tribes of the Rong tribe have long had the intention of belonging to my Dayong, and sooner or later they will also become my Dayong state, how can the Dian people easily take it! And my Dayong is a big country, and it is the inheritance of Daqin, how can I bow to the Yunnan people! ”
Wang Zhe nodded when he heard this, and then he sighed and said: "This time and that time! My Dayong is now in the waning mountains, and it is not easy to secure a place in this border realm, how can I talk about a great country! I think that my Great Qin used to dominate the four seas of Kyushu, but now it is ......! Alas!"
After speaking, Wang Zhe suddenly felt a little sad, and then he arched his hand to me and said: "The old man is also powerless, and he doesn't know what to do!
After hearing this, I smiled slightly, and asked Prime Minister Wang, "Your Excellency, why are you so short-sighted! Don't you know that the emaciated camel is also larger than the horse, and my great Yong country is indeed far from the Xiongnu, this is also a fact! But I am a great man, and I have a lot of soldiers, so why should I be afraid of the small Yunnan country?"
Prime Minister Wang replied: "The old minister is indeed short-sighted! But the old minister thinks that at present, I should preserve my strength in preparation for the troubles of the Huns, and it is not appropriate to entangle with the Dian State at this time!"
I sneered and said: "As the saying goes: People are good at being bullied, and horses are good at being ridden! Today, I will let the Dian Kingdom bully me, and I will endure Xirong laughing at me in the coming day, but I don't know when the government and the opposition will change, could it be that I will also have to endure it? Let the thieves be the kings everywhere? In the past, where was my face of the great yong? Where is the society of my great yong?"
After hearing this, Prime Minister Wang nodded, hesitated for a moment and asked: "The old minister also understands the meaning of the king of Hanzhong, but what does the king of Hanzhong have a high opinion!"
I smiled slightly after listening, then put away my smile and stood up, raised my head and said sharply to the ministers: "I don't dare to say anything, this king's meaning is only this: For the land of Rongyi, even if it is a border and other realms, or the mountains are high and the roads are far away, those who deceive me will be punished even if they are far away!"
After finishing speaking, all the ministers stopped discussing, and the entire court instantly fell silent!
Then the ministers knelt down together and shouted in unison: "The king of Hanzhong is wise, my great Yongguo is mighty, and the king of Hanzhong is a thousand years old and a thousand years old!"
I stretched out my hand to the ministers and said, "Ministers, please get up!"
After the ministers got up and stood up again, I immediately said to the chief eunuch beside me: "Proposed purpose: to make the king of Shu the general of Zhenguo, and lead the Shu army of 60,000 troops to attack Southern Yunnan!"
The imperial uncle immediately walked to the bottom of the steps, arched his hand and said: "This king has received the order, and he will not give up if he does not destroy the Dian Kingdom!"
I nodded at the emperor's uncle, and then said to him: "The king of Shu can rest assured, if the war is not good, this king will also personally lead a large army to help!"
The imperial uncle replied, "This king has orders!"
At this time, Wang Zhe frowned and asked, "Lord Hanzhong, this Dian Kingdom must be destroyed?
I shook my head and replied: "If the Dian Kingdom is not destroyed, where is the prestige of my Great Yong Country! Destroying Yunnan is a great military plan, even if he does not come to deceive me, he will be among the troops of my Great Yong! Time is pressing, my Great Yong should pacify Rongyi as soon as possible and collect all the land of the Xiongnu in the west, this is the country of my Great Yong and the Xiongnu decisive battle! Cheng is quite clear about the reason!"
Prime Minister Wang nodded slightly after hearing this, but his face was still full of doubts, and he was still not very relieved!
But if I decree it, even if he wants to say anything, he won't have a chance!
The decree was quickly written, and the imperial uncle took it from the chief eunuch, and then immediately left for Shu County!
After that, I announced a holy decree, that is, to reward the two counties of Fangling and Changwei, and reduce the people's taxes to one-twentieth of what they collected!
After the end of the early dynasty, Wang Zhe couldn't wait to take me to a cubicle!
Prime Minister Wang Cheng looked very uneasy, he asked me in a panic: "This conquest of the Dian State is a major event, if the war is unfavorable, the Dian people are very likely to counterattack the two counties of Bashu, and then my Dayong Kingdom is in danger!
I sneered: "The Empress Dowager's decree has been issued, and all affairs in the court and the central government can be decided by this king! This king can also make it clear that the Empress Dowager will definitely agree to the destruction of Yunnan, so why does the prime minister make such a move?"
After hearing this, Prime Minister Wang sighed and said: "The old minister is just worried that the Dayong Jiangshan Sheji will be damaged because of this! That Shu Wang Gui is the emperor's uncle, usually arrogant, although he was born as a military general, but he has a violent personality and is reckless, and he is handsome and mediocre! This person cannot be relied on, this Dian Kingdom is afraid of losing in the first battle, the king of Hanzhong !!"
I smiled and said, "Don't worry, Prime Minister, this king said that if the war is unfavorable, this king will personally lead a large army to help!"
Prime Minister Wang Cheng frowned and asked me: "The old ministers of the battle of Luoyang in the past are very admired! The realm of the Dian Kingdom is very different from Sanchuan County, both are mountains and forests, if the prince goes to unify the army, can the prince be sure?"
I smiled, turned around and replied to him: "If the prime minister orders this king to lead our army north out of Hanzhong, and then go north to take Xianyang, this king is also 100% sure, how can we talk about the small Dian country!"
After hearing this, Prime Minister Wang laughed, shook his head frantically and said: "Hanzhong Wang Mo is laughing, this is a major military event!"
I immediately put away my smile and said to him calmly: "This king is telling the truth, seizing Xianyang is like picking up something! If it weren't for the fact that there are millions of male soldiers in the east of the Xiongnu, I'm afraid that Xianyang would have already fallen into my hands!"
Prime Minister Wang was shocked after hearing this, seeing that I was so serious, he naturally knew that I was not joking with him!
I smiled at him and turned away!
