Chapter 10: The World is in Turmoil

Li Yu's convoy is still slowly moving on the road.

The Jingxiang Jiedu embassy received the edict.

Nanyang County, Dengzhou, which was under the jurisdiction of the original Jingxiang Jiedu envoy, became the fief of Li Yu, the king of De, and the entire Jiedu embassy was lively.

Five years ago, because of a letter, Zhu Quanzhong, a tyrant in the Central Plains, raised troops to invade and occupied Sanzhou in a few days.

At that time, if it weren't for Zhao Kuangning's quick reaction and hurried to seek peace, and Zhu Quanzhong would have to focus on Li Keyong in Hedong, I am afraid that the entire Jingxiang would have fallen into Zhu Quanzhong's hands.

Now that he thinks about it, he still has palpitations.

It's better not to provoke this big hero.

Dengzhou, Tangzhou, and Suizhou are the economic lifeblood of the entire Jingxiang, and the money and grain of these three states can account for forty percent of Jingxiang.

This Zhu Quanzhong has only been returned to him for two years, and now Nanyang County has been assigned to King De, and this news has shocked a lot.

In the Jiedu Mansion in Xiangyang City, Zhao Kuangning was having a secret conversation with his brother Zhao Kuangming.

During this time, the brothers were secretly preparing to send troops to occupy Jingnan at the right time.

At this juncture, King De came.

What to do?

Zhao Kuangning is indeed loyal to the Tang dynasty and the imperial court, but he has to be false and wronged with him in the face of Zhu Quanzhong's oppression.

He knew about Li Yu.

King De is the eldest son of the saint, the former crown prince, and was later supported by Liu Jishu to ascend the throne, and then he was deposed and demoted to the king of De, and now the fief Nanyang is afraid that it is the compensation given to him by the saint.

"Brother, King De is a vassal, what should we do?"

"Brother Xian, the whole world is not the king's land. Could it be that we, as courtiers, can still compete with the royal family for territory?! ”

"But, that's money!"

"Do we still have less money and food to worship every year? There is not much difference between offering to a saint and giving it to a king. Besides, Nanyang County is not big after all, so we don't need to worry about it. ”

"Then our Jingnan affairs ......"

"Let's prepare first, and then we'll see how it goes."

……

Chang'an Xiwei Bridge.

Emperor Li Ye's royal car stopped here, and the ministers of the court and the central government greeted him here under the leadership of Cui Yin.

Behind the royal car is the 20,000 Xuanwu army, waving flags and shouting horses.

Just three days after King De left, Li Maozhen sent the sage Li Yegong to the camp of the Xuanwu army. When Zhu Quanzhong saw the saint, he hurriedly visited him, hugged the saint and wept bitterly, and even said that Weichen was late to save him, and he was guilty of capital and death!

In Zhu Quanzhong's camp, a drama of filial piety was staged.

Li Ye took Zhu Quanzhong's hand and said: "Zongmiao Sheji is the reinvention of Qing, and his relatives are reborn!" ”

Zhu Quanzhong was appointed as the commander of the guard, the commander of the Zhongshu Order, the Xuanwu and other military festivals, the deputy marshal of the soldiers and horses of the Dao, and the king of Liang, and was given the honorary title of "returning to heaven and rebuilding the loyal and upright heroes", and gave the imperial system five "Yangliu Ci".

Zhu Quanzhong was grateful, and when he set up the camp, he personally led the horse to the emperor Li Ye and sent it out for ten miles.

When he was in the Xuanwu camp outside Fengxiang City, Li Ye summoned Cui Yin to the camp to meet him.

Cui Yin refused to obey the edict, saying that he was sick and couldn't come.

At this moment, Cui Yin is hiding in Chang'an and waiting.

Previously, he secretly asked Zhu Quanzhong to lead troops into Beijing, and frightened the eunuchs into running to Fengxiang with Li Ye in tow.

Li Ye was angry and issued an edict to demote him to Guangzhou.

As a result, this old boy did not give up halfway, and sent a letter to Zhu Quanzhong, asking Zhu Quanzhong to support him in ruling the dynasty, and he should cooperate with Zhu Quanzhong to get more benefits.

Zhu Quanzhong received the letter and felt proud.

So a letter was delivered to Fengxiang City, supporting Cui Yin to continue to be in charge of the government.

Li Maozhen and Emperor Li Ye were very jealous of Zhu Quanzhong and didn't want to offend him too much, so Li Ye issued an edict to restore Cui Yin's position.

The main reason behind Zhu Quanzhong's reconciliation with Li Maozhen this time was that the various cities in the jurisdiction of Xuanwu Jiedu were attacked and attacked by Wang Shifan, the envoy of Pinglu Jiedu.

It is said that the strength of the Pinglu Army is far from being the opponent of the Xuanwu Army, why did he still provoke Zhu Quanzhong?

This is also related to Li Maozhen and Han Quanxue.

Cui Yin summoned Zhu Quanzhong to kill the eunuchs, and Han Quanzhu ran to Fengxiang with the emperor's family. In order to alleviate Feng Xiang's pressure, they were overbearing and spread the word to the world, and they wanted to unite the world's feudal towns to fight against Zhu Quanzhong.

But the only person in the world who really responded to the edict was Wang Shifan.

Wang Shifan received the edict and cried loudly.

So he conspired with his subordinates and sent more than a dozen teams to enter Zhu Quanzhong's city in disguise, preparing to respond to the call of the edict.

However, this matter was not confidential and was soon discovered by the other party.

Only the tooth general Liu ι„© (xΓΊn) attacked Yanzhou with a clever plan.

This can poke a hornet's nest.

At that time, Zhu Quanzhong was fighting in Fengxiang Mansion with the main civil and military forces, far away from the nest, and immediately sent part of the army back to help after receiving the news.

At this time in Bianzhou, Zhu Youning had already led reinforcements to fight Yanzhou.

But here he was still in a stalemate with Li Maozhen, so he took advantage of the peace talks to quickly end the war and bring back his men and horses to help.

This is the main reason why he so happily agreed to King De's fief and reconciled with Li Maozhen.

Now he left 20,000 horses to stay in Chang'an as the Su Guard, and his nephew Zhu Youlun was the "Commander of the Su Guard", who was fully responsible for the safety of the Beijing Division, and actually took care of these people.

And he hurriedly ran back to Bianzhou, gathered men and horses, and prepared to besiege Qingzhou.

Before going back, Cui Yin finally said that the emperor Li Ye was moved, and asked Zhu Quanzhong to kill the eunuchs in the Jingshi Palace one by one, leaving only more than 30 people who sprinkled and swept away, wearing yellow shirts, and the entry and exit notices were replaced by officials.

At the same time, Zhu Quanzhong spread the word to the world and asked the towns to kill the prison envoys.

Since then, the power of the eunuchs has finally been eliminated, and the warlords of the towns are no longer restrained and supervised.

Li Ye is also going to become a real loner.

The world is full of storms, and the wheels of history are slowly rolling forward.

……

Li Yu also left Wuguan more than half a month later and entered the territory of Dengzhou.

In Neixiang County, the local officials represented by Zhao Kuangning, the envoy of Jingxiang Festival, and Zhao Kuangming, the assassin of Dengzhou, went out of the city early to greet them.

This made Li Yu sigh in his heart, their brother was really a loyal minister.

Zhao Kuangming, the assassin of Dengzhou, is Zhao Kuangning's brother, because Dengzhou is rich, after Zhu Quanzhong returned to the state and county, Zhao Kuangning entrusted his younger brother to manage, and has been in office for two years.

Because Li Yu's fief is Nanyang County, which happens to be under the jurisdiction of Dengzhou, he also followed his brother to meet King De.

"His Royal Highness King De, the ministers welcome His Highness to Nanyang."

In any case, Li Yu is the eldest son of the emperor, although he is the abolished emperor and has a moral deficit, but this cannot change the fact that they are ministers and Li Yu is the king.

All the officials gave a deep salute.

"Gentlemen, please get up."

Li Yu stood in front of the car and helped Zhao Kuangning up.

"Zhao Jieshuai, Yu is in Nanyang, and I have to rely on the support and help of the festival marshal, Yu is here to thank you!"

Li Yuyi was dressed in a robe and looked at Zhao Kuangning deeply.

"Oh, this can be a torment for the old minister, but there is a drive, and everything is followed."

Zhao Kuangning hurriedly stopped King De's salute.

He knew that this was a cautious trick on the part of King De, so he first said what he wanted to ask for help, so that he would have nothing to say in the future.

But so what?

I must give my full support to King De to Nanyang.

Just because he is the eldest son of Emperor Li Ye, although he is no longer the crown prince and has no right to inherit the throne, this does not hinder Li Yu's status.

Besides, Zhao Kuangning also has a little selfishness, now that the world is turbulent and there are many strong clans, who knows which prince can rain on his head? In case Li Yu ......

Of course, this is what he thinks in his heart, but he doesn't dare to show it.

When he saw Li Yu, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy, with a heroic posture and a radiant face, he also secretly thought to himself, should he seize the opportunity to marry the daughter of the family?

Zhao Kuangning has always wondered how a person as smart as Zhu Quanzhong could release the eldest son of the royal family from Chang'an, is he confused?

It seems that this is God's arrangement, and for some reason the eldest son of the emperor came to his side, where can I find such an opportunity?!

"Your Highness, the minister came in a hurry and brought some small gifts, please smile at Your Highness."

Zhao Kuangning took out a list and handed it to the guard next to him.

Wei Ai handed the gift list to Li Yu.

Hurriedly swept it, there were a lot of gifts, and the long list had to be loaded with dozens of cars.

"Hehe, Zhao Jieshuai is too polite, this king has just arrived, he doesn't understand anything, and he has to help him a lot."

"Hehe, His Royal Highness's drive is a trust in the minister."

Zhao Kuangning gave Li Yushen a salute, which was his promise.

"Jieshuai, Nanyang County is the fief of this king, but there is no one available around me, can you recommend one or two?"

"This, Rong Chen thinks about it......"

In fact, this is also Li Yu's helplessness.

When he was the crown prince, he was assisted by officials from the East Palace, but when the puppet emperor was deposed, he was demoted to the king of Germany, and there were a few slaves in the palace, all of whom were thrown by him in Chang'an, and now there are only eight beauties around him, except for the hundred private soldiers, and there are no maids and servants.

Zhao Kuangning is the local festival envoy, Zhao Kuangming is the history of Dengzhou Thorn, the brothers have a better understanding of the situation in Nanyang County, before Nanyang was assigned to the fief of King De, the county order here is Zhao Kuangming's nephew Zhou Kuan in the management, in the past two years, the results are remarkable.

"Your Highness, Nanyang County Commander Zhou Kuan is also waiting outside, let him come in and tell His Highness how the details are."

This is the recommendation of talents in disguise.

"Oh? Nanyang County Order? Okay, let him in. ”
