Chapter 333: Fengyang (3000)

But if you have a position, you will be a little cautious, the generals of the Southern Liang Dynasty asked for the western expedition, naturally they went to make war achievements, after all, I can't beat the Eastern Wei Dynasty, can't I beat you, the lost dog Yuwentai!

And even if the Shu land is recovered, the credit has nothing to do with the ministers, so they have a more negative attitude towards this, and even out of consideration for the fight against the strong enemy in the north, after all, I heard that 50,000 Shu soldiers were all wiped out in Guanzhong, and the Eastern Wei Dynasty captured more than 100,000 people in the first war, which really made many people frightened, and they were more willing to join forces with Yuwentai to fight the enemy.

Xiao Yan naturally understands these truths, and he really doesn't want to fight to the death with Yuwentai, and finally cheapens the Eastern Wei Dynasty.

It's just that he can't get over his face, and he hasn't opened up for a long time, so that the civil and military forces quarrel endlessly, and they are divided into the main battle faction and the main peace faction.

Now Yuwentai sent a letter to Jiankang, and it turned out that Yuan Bao Ju asked himself to retire from the position of the Son of Heaven and proclaim himself a minister to Nanliang.

The ministers had a saying on the spot: Look! Yuan Bao Ju, Yu Wentai and they are vassals to Daliang, this Shu land still belongs to us, it has been recovered, what kind of troops are still moving, we must focus on the overall situation.

But obviously, this is just a self-deception, even if they surrender, Yuwentai and the others are nominally Liang Chen, but you Jiankang can still mobilize them.

The generals then refuted this, seeing that there was more and more a trend towards the development of the whole martial arts, Xiao Yan finally opened his mouth with the steps:

"Now the Gao clan is in the north, the enemy is current, since the forbearance of the country, with the heart of self-denial, with the heart of self-tolerance to tolerate others, and the people of Guanxi are poor to vote, if I refuse, I am afraid that its people will face the north and surrender, if the door of Hanzhong is opened, leading the Gao family into Shu, then the disaster is endless, I have decided, accept its surrender!"

Xiao Bodhisattva is a cultural person in the end, and he can call Yuwentai, who has just captured Bashu, a poor person, who can only be compared with the two Qi kings who only know how to sing big operas in the north.

Don't look at Xiao Yan's usual chanting and chanting of Buddhism, but he has been on the throne for 39 years, and he has accumulated great power, since he has released all his words, naturally no one dares to oppose it anymore.

So Xiao Yan issued a decree to accept the surrender of Yuan Bao Torch, Yu Wentai and others, and sealed Yuan Bao Torch as the history of Yizhou Thorn and gave it to the King of Wei; Feng Yu Wentai is the assassin of Liangzhou, that is, the Hanzhong region, and the rest of the important generals also have their own officials.

Of course, Xiao Yan's careful thinking will not play a role, the Wuchuan Group has its own internal system, and it has nominally taken refuge in Nanliang, but in fact, it will not take your Xiao Yan's gift seriously.

For example, within themselves, they will still use the ingot torch as a puppet son of heaven, and only Yu Wentai is the first to look forward.

After all, the title of King of Wei of Great Liang given by Xiao Yan is indeed not very good, and it is really not aimed at King Wu of Great Wei.

Before the Yuan Bao Torch, there were still several Wei kings who were given by Xiao Yan, such as Yuan Hao, who accompanied Chen Qingzhi's Northern Expedition, and was finally defeated and killed;

After Yuan Hao, Xiao Yan gave Yuan Qinghe the title of King of Wei and ordered him to go on a northern expedition, no way, after the change in Heyin, there were a lot of Yuan Wei clans who fled to the south of the Yangtze River, but this time the Northern Expedition Yuan Qinghe was afraid of the enemy like a tiger, and retreated when he heard the wind, which also made Xiao Bodhisattva create the word timid as a mouse, and was sent to Hepu (Guangxi Beihai), although he lost the title of King of Wei, but in the end he saved his life.

Later, another Wei king, Yuanyue, was sent back to the Northern Wei Dynasty by Xiao Yan to participate in the Son of Heaven selection competition hosted by Gao Huan, but unfortunately he was not favored by the judge Gao Cheng, and was finally defeated and killed;

In addition to these Wei kings, Xiao Bodhisattva also set up an Eastern Wei king, that is, the Yuan monk, although the character is poor, but he lived to be eighty-three years old, and died only a few years ago.

King Wei of Liang is a consumable, which is really touching, but Yuwentai will not worry about whether the ingot torch will be affected by the curse of King Wei, he is concentrating on attacking the southern Shu region.

And after Xiao Yan sent an edict to Yuwentai and others, he also decided to send an envoy north.

Gao Cheng was still handling the funeral, and he didn't have time to let Wen Zisheng run errands, but he didn't expect Xiao Yan to send someone first.

How could Xiao Bodhisattva ask about Xiao Ji's life and death, after all, this was already his most capable son.

Knowing that his brother was defeated in Guanzhong and his death was uncertain, Xiao Lun, the filial son of Nanliang, was overjoyed, he was always scolded over the years, but Xiao Ji was favored, and now he finally got angry, and actually set up a banquet in the house to celebrate.

Xiao Yan learned about this, and summoned him to the palace for a scolding, Xiao Lun was angry, so he found an old man of the same age as Xiao Yan in Jiankang City, and prepared to be filial to his father again on the physical level.

At the beginning of the New Year, Rouran was still at war with Gao Che in the distant Western Regions, and in this race with time, it was the Eastern Wei Dynasty that won after all, but due to the internal instability caused by Gao Huan's death, Gao Cheng really had no intention of interfering in the affairs of the grassland.

Yuan Shanjian and others were still guarding Gao Huan's spirit in the lobby, and Gao Cheng was already in the backyard room to accept everyone's persuasion.

"Now that the first king has passed away, the situation is not stable, and King Gao immediately obeys the will of heaven, that is, the position of the Son of Heaven."

Sun Teng's words really made Gao Cheng stunned for a long time before he reacted: It turns out that I have become the king of Gao.

The old King Gao has passed away, and the little King Gao has become the King Gao, and Gao Cheng's emotions are visibly darkened:

"You don't need to persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind, and now is not the time to take the position."

Gao Cheng didn't shirk it, he still had a place to use Yuan Shanjian, and instead discussed Gao Huan's mausoleum with Sun Teng, Sima Ziru, Gao Longzhi and others.

When he was young, he made a filial piety promise to bury He Liuhun in Yubi, but on this day, even from an emotional point of view, Gao Cheng couldn't do such a thing.

That's right, He Liuhun does often beat and scold himself, but his kindness to himself is also obvious to all, and few people in power are willing to share military and political power with their son.

Legend has it that Cao Cao has seventy-two doubtful graves, of course, this is fake, and Gao Cheng is also a pragmatic person, unwilling to fix so many empty heads.

At the suggestion of Sun Teng and others, Gao Cheng decided to dig a mausoleum for Gao Huan in Bishan, and made up his mind that everything would be simple when he was buried in the future.

At the same time, it is necessary to mobilize the subordinates to describe Gao Huan's funeral in detail, so that the world will know that Gao Cheng responded to Gao Huan's dying request and then buried him thinly, after all, He Liuhun was alone with Gao Cheng for a period of time before his death, and no one can say whether there was such an explanation.

Yuan Shanjian returned to the palace three days after Gao Huan's vigil, and on the eleventh day of the first month of the tenth year of Taichang (541), Lou Zhaojun and others, who were belated, arrived in Luoyang.

On the mourning hall, the cries of a group of warblers and swallows.

How to place Gao Huan's relict cream has also become a big problem.

It is easy to do it if they have children, Gao Cheng let them live with their children, but he made a rule that they would not live in the same house, and they were afraid of making the ugly matter of Zheng Dache and parent-child incest.

There are women who have no children, and they are also raised in the Qi Palace, but if the daughter marries in the future, it is reasonable for them to follow them, so they can only continue to support them by the Qi Palace.

And those who have not given birth, no matter how they say it, are also Gao Huan's widows and Gao Cheng's mother, and they can't be allowed to remarry, but they can't be raised in the palace, a beautiful young man, and no one knows what kind of mess will be caused.

Fortunately, there is a Yaoguang Temple in Luoyang, where the place is high and familiar, and he often goes in and out privately to discuss the rise and fall of the country with the widowed concubines, he decided to follow the old system of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and sent Gao Huan's relics, such as Zheng Dache and others, to Yaoguang Temple to lead the practice, saying that it is practice, in fact, the degree of food and clothing will be brocade clothes and jade food, and even the servant girls will not be less.

Gao Cheng mentioned this matter to Lou Zhaojun, and Lou Zhaojun, who was surrounded by the sixth son Gao Yan, the ninth son Gao Zhan, and the eleventh son Gao Ji, wiped his tears and said:

"Your father and king have forsaken me and passed away, and now you need to rely on Ah Hui for everything, and you have made a decision, so you don't need to consult with me anymore."

Perhaps this is the biggest difference between the successor cultivated by Zheng'er Bajing and the temporary ascendant, Lou Zhaojun's status is still noble, and it is only limited to Jinyang civil and military, and Gao Huan's last life, Jinyang civil and military cannot abandon their son and support their mother.

Lou Zhaojun was able to shackle Gao Yang, but he was powerless to interfere with Gao Huan's eldest son who could share power and rule with him when he was alive.

With Lou Zhaojun's permission, Gao Cheng summoned a group of concubines to the side room, and these newly widowed beautiful women cried so much that they listened to Gao Cheng's arrangement, but no one objected.

Except for You's, these people are all widows who remarry, and now they are not too young, and many people have no intention of remarrying, and they have a promise that Gao Cheng is willing to support, how can they make a fuss about remarrying when Gao Huan's body is not cold.

Even Zheng Dache, who frequently looks at Gao Cheng, has no resistance to going to live in Yaoguang Temple, and she can hear a lot of urban legends about Gao Cheng's night visit to Yaoguang Temple when she was in Jinyang.

After arranging the place where the relics fell, Gao Cheng finally withdrew from Gao Huan's funeral, which would take a long time, but Dawei could not do without King Qi, so Gao Huan's funeral matters were all handed over to Lou Zhaojun to deal with.

Lou Zhaojun has no political talent, but he still has the ability to hold a funeral for Gao Huan.

As Gao Cheng rejoined state affairs, the people of Luoyang found that Yuan Shanjian had actually stood up.

For example, on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, the Son of Heaven wanted to renovate the Ouchi Imperial Garden Hualin Garden, and Xiangguo Gao Cheng advised him, but he was severely reprimanded by Yuan Shanjian and ordered him to return home for reflection.

On the fifteenth day of the first month, when the Son of Heaven admired the moon, he suddenly felt that the building was not high, and he could not enjoy it, and he decided to recreate the high pavilion wonder, and the king of Qi Gao Cheng pained Chen Wonder and misled the country, and was scolded by the Son of Heaven.

These news were deliberately spread, and the people at the bottom were ignorant, and they really thought that after Gao Huan's death, the Son of Heaven stood up.

You see, the Son of Heaven is extravagant and hedonistic, and the simple and loving King Qi has the heart to persuade him, isn't it also bad to reprimand and scold, and he is powerless to change.

Of course, the magnates in Luoyang City, and officials from all over the country know the truth, in the past, Gao Cheng was only a general, and he was able to overwhelm Yuan Shanjian, and now he inherited all the officials of Gao Huan, and he grasped the military and politics with one hand, but he was suppressed by Yuan Shanjian.

Wait, the inappropriate little Gao Wang may be playing some crooked idea again, so he is ready to let Yuan Shanjian take the blame.

Didn't it be like this before, the things that benefited the people were all the credit of his Gao Cheng.

Something that provokes the anger of the public, then don't think about it, it must be done by the faint king, the king of Qi persuaded him, but he couldn't persuade him.
