Chapter 39: Jia Lian suddenly understood

Speaking of which, the battle of the Great Zheng and Zhou was fought twice.

Once in the twenty-eighth year of the Apocalypse, Emperor Taizu sent Ningguo Gong Jia Yan as the commander, led the Zhenguo Bull Wei, and Xiuguo Gonghou Xiaoming led an army of 200,000 to break through Luoyang in half a year. Sizong burned down the palace, and all the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty died in the palace.

In the twenty-ninth year of the Apocalypse, with the support of the Northern Jurchens, Guo Zhong, the younger brother of Zhou Sizong, succeeded to the throne and changed to Chongning. And the southern Dazheng still uses the name of the apocalypse.

In the thirtieth year of the Apocalypse, Taizu changed the Yuan to Shunde, because of the rise of foreign races in the north, and the red hair in the south harassed the coast. , the remnants of the Zhou family in China rebelled repeatedly, and Taizu concentrated on pacifying the interior. Ten years did not take the initiative to raise a large army.

In the twelfth year of Shunde, Taizu sent Rong Guogong to lead a large army to take Yunnan, and it took two years to seize the last piece of land south of the Yangtze River with the banner of the Great Zhou.

In the fifteenth year of Shunde, the Duke of Zhenguo took Shaanxi, and in the sixteenth year, Taizu and Jia Yuan, the Duke of Rongguo, led the army to recruit the Jurchens of Hebei. besieged Guo Zhong's capital, Handan.

The war lasted two years, Shunde eighteen years, the Jurchen sent heavy troops to the south to support, in the battle of Zhengding Shijiazhuang, Dazheng was defeated, Taizu and Rong Guogong were all killed.

The Holy Ancestor succeeded to the throne and had to shrink as a last resort. Guo Zhong took the opportunity to go south with the help of the Jurchens. Recaptured Henan, and returned the capital to Luoyang.

Only then did the Holy Ancestor of Jingning and the Xianrong Kingdom seize Luoyang again, kill the Great Zhou Emperor Guo Zhong, and slaughter the Zhou royal family.

Because Taizu had already destroyed the Guozuo of Zhou, and Guo Zhong's throne was supported by the Jurchens, and he had a grudge against Da Zheng for killing the king. Therefore, Da Zheng did not recognize Guo Zhong, and in Zheng Renxiu's "History of Zhou", the last emperor of the Zhou Dynasty was Sizong and not Guo Zhong.

Here, Jia Lian also retreated to the hall and sat down.

"Your kid's tired appearance is indeed eight points similar to that of Rong Guogong back then."

Jia Lian was stunned for a moment, his appearance Xiao Mu was recognized in the house. There is indeed one in Rongguo's Mansion who is similar to Rongguo Gong Jia Daishan, but that is Baoyu.

Thinking of this, Jia Lian also glanced at Zhen Baoyu, who was also sitting in the hall, not to mention, it was indeed too similar to Jia Baoyu in Beijing.

Probably seeing Jia Lian's puzzled look, Mrs. Fengsheng took the initiative to explain: "You probably think I'm talking about Dai Shanna, I'm talking about Yuan Gong."

Although I am a few years older than Daishan, I have more contact with Gengong than with him. Back then, Yuan Gong's demeanor was the same as you are now, and he was used to pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Jia Lian's face stiffened, if this was another person who commented on Rong Guogong like this, I am afraid that Jia Lian, the son of heaven, would dare to distinguish a few words with him.

But what could he say to the old lady in front of him. After all, Mrs. Fengsheng is a person of the same generation as Lao Rongguo, and I am afraid that she did not say this to Lao Rongguo in person back then.

Seeing Jia Lian's appearance, Mrs. Fengsheng was even happier. After chatting for a while, Jia Lian led the topic to Yangzhou and asked for the help of Mrs. Fengsheng and the Zhen family to stabilize Jiangnan, especially the Yangzhou business community, when Jia Lian made a move against Yangzhou salt merchants.

When it came to business, Madame Bong became serious. Although she thinks that with her own influence and the influence of the Zhen family, this favor is not difficult to help. Moreover, this is an opportunity to get closer to the Son of Heaven.

But thinking of her frightened children and grandchildren, she was a little helpless.

She can see that the current Longzheng Tianzi seems to be very suppressed by the Emperor Taishang, but in fact, the position of the emperor is as stable as Mount Tai. And the Son of Heaven is not like the Emperor Taishang who has a nurturing relationship with himself, so it is dangerous to go on like this.

But her children and grandchildren, who were stupid at reading, didn't listen to it at all. She is nearly 100 years old, and she has no good children, so she can only do a little bit more. He went underground one day, and I hope my husband won't blame him.

"Brother, don't worry, my wife still has some face in Jiangnan Shilin and the business world. I'll do it for you, in addition, it's very dangerous for my brother to do this, although there are many masters in Jinyi Mansion, but my brother also needs to have his own henchmen, and my brother can bring it. ”

Jia Lian shook his head.

Mrs. Fengsheng was stunned for a moment: "When the era was good, the masters were like clouds. There are eighteen of the top masters in his family, known as the eighteen generals of Rongguo. You, the lord of the Rong country, travel, don't they accompany the escort? ”

Jia Lian smiled bitterly, he had also heard of the eighteen generals of Rongguo back then. Ten of them are descendants of the first generation of Rongguo generals, and the other eight are accepted by Jia Daishan.

But Jia Daishan attacked Russia in the last battle and single-handedly killed the four major Russian princes. At the cost of his life, he stopped the expansion of Russia to Dazheng.

Of the eighteen generals of Rongguo who followed Rongguo on the expedition, fifteen died in Mobei with him. The remaining three returned to Shenjing, and after sending Rongguo's relics back to Rongguo's mansion, they all committed suicide in the north.

Now, the Jia family, who has not joined the army for 20 years, does not even have personal soldiers. How can there be such a rare master in the world.

Mrs. Fengsheng quickly figured it out, but he still comforted Jia Lian: "Is it the old woman, no, I actually forgot the past incident that shook the world when the last three generals committed suicide in front of the gate of Rongguo Mansion after the death of Shi Shan." ”

Jia Lian cleaned up the sadness on his face at the right time. When Xian Rongguo died, Jia Yu had not yet married. Jia Lian naturally never met this legendary grandfather.

"The old lady is serious, the Jia family is their own problem today, how can I blame you."

"Dai Shan, with a grandson like Ge'er, the revival of the Jia family will not be far away. Since there is no one in the Jia family who is useless, it is good for the old woman to give you one. ”

Jia Lian was really stunned for a moment, as the dynasty became stronger and stronger, in addition to the army, more and more young people were disgusted with martial arts and literature. It's not easy for the people to have a top master.

Mrs. Fengsheng naturally has this kind of background, but doesn't it take the opinions of Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Yu to send such a master who can be the guardian of the family? Or, won't Zhen Yingjia and Zhen Yu have an opinion?

Zhen Yingjia was not there, it is said that he went to the Yamen. Jia Lian probably didn't have the heart to socialize with a junior like herself.

Jia Lian looked at Zhen Yu, but found that he actually felt relieved.

Jia Lian looked at Mrs. Fengsheng again.

"Brother, don't worry, when I married into the Zhen family, there were two first-class guards in the palace who had been guarding me since I was a child. He is one of the descendants of them, inheriting the martial arts of his ancestors. Now it's better to be blue.

It's just that my Zhen family is a family heirloom, and I don't need him now. If my brother wants to revitalize the family business, I'll give it to you. ”

Seeing the look that Zhen Yu gave him, it was obvious that he wanted to accept it. Jia Lian suddenly understood.
