Chapter 962: Giving Concubines
Under the night sky, the east gate of the city is ambushed.
Above the city tower, Li Xuan stood silently.
Looking at the entire Qinghai Lake in the distance, his expression was calm.
At this moment, a slight sound of footsteps sounded, and then stopped: "Your Majesty! ”
Li Xuan didn't look back, and asked directly: "I heard that the Tuyuhun people don't like to eat fish, so after the food is enough, they stop eating fish, is that true?" ”
"Yes!"
"What is your status in the city now?" Li Xuan turned around and looked at Li Gu, who was in the dust but had a resolute look in his eyes.
Li Gu was the shadow son planted in Fu Qi City when Li Xuan took Fu Qi City last year.
"The subordinate is one of the two deputy generals under the city guard, and he has a thousand elite soldiers, which is equivalent to one of the two major soldiers in the city." Li Gu gave his hand seriously.
The city guard is equivalent to the local sima, and the deputy general is Bing Cao to join the army.
In addition to the 3,000 patrol battalions stationed all the year round, there are 10,000 cavalry stationed in Baili away, guarding on all sides.
"If the castle guard dies, will you be able to secure the position of the castle guard in the end?" Li Xuan's expression was cold, but his gaze fell in the direction of the palace in the city.
"I can't." A trace of annoyance flashed in Li Gu's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said, "The city guard is a confidant of the lord of the country, although he has no ability, but he ...... Only the cronies of the lord of the country can sit in the position of castle guard. ”
For example, the county orders of Chang'an and Wannian counties are one level lower than the local assassin history, and such characters are all people in the eyes of the emperor.
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Tomorrow night, the Tubo Rebellion will be in turmoil, and you will find a way to completely quell the biggest Tubo Rebellion at the first time."
This king will have someone assassinate the castle guard and the other lieutenant general, and you can also get someone who can't see it and stay behind the city wall instead of you. ”
Li Gu's eyes jumped, and then he arched his hand and said, "Huh! ”
"The Tubo people will set fire to the whole city, and you will take over the entire city defense by the way." Li Xuan glanced sideways at Li Gu.
"Whoa!"
"When everything calms down, the Murong clan will inevitably use their cronies to take over the city defense, and when the time comes, they will also ask for orders to go to Golmud."
Li Xuan looked at the Qaidam Basin in the distance, and said softly: "At that time, the Qingxi Beacon Fire will rise again, and the black-clothed Heavenly Kings will assist you in making meritorious contributions on the battlefield, and when the war is over, you will go to Delingha to be a city guard." ”
Li Xuan prefers to use the name of the black-clothed Heavenly Kings, what the hell is the black-clothed knights.
"Yes." Li Gu gave up his hand, but then asked, "Your Majesty, don't you care about Golmud?" ”
"Do you think you can sit in the position of the Upper Golmud Castle Guard?" Li Xuan asked directly.
Li Gu shook his head with an ugly face: "In the land of Golmud's wealth, the Murong clan still uses their cronies. ”
"So it can only be Delingha." Li Xuan comforted softly and said: "Actually, Delingha is the best, the business travelers from Qingdong and Qingxi from all over the country have to pass through Delingha, and controlling Delingha is equivalent to cutting off Tuyuhun things directly...... With the loss of Delingha, the Murong clan will only be left with Tuyuhun, and once they really have to do something, they can be destroyed with a backhand. ”
At that time, Li Xuan could easily take the whole thing Tuguhun into his hands.
"Yes!" Li Gu bowed his hand seriously, and then, he spoke: "Your Majesty, Ming Chongyan has arrived in Fuqi City. ”
"Oh?" Li Xuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and then said: "No wonder the Murong clan dares to ignore this king, it turns out that he has a new backer." ”
Looking up at the crescent moon in the night sky, Li Xuan waved his hand slightly and said, "Don't care, something is really going to happen, Ming Chongyan can't count on it." ”
"What about the king?" Li Gu couldn't help but ask.
"It's time for this king to go to Wuhai to discuss Qinling for a while." Li Xuan turned to look in the direction of Wuhai and said softly: "In the final analysis, Fu Qicheng is just a partial teacher. ”
……
"The location of Fu Qi City is too remote."
Li Xuan was dressed in a purple python robe, his eyes looked at the Qingnan Basin beyond the vast Nanshan Mountain in Qinghai, and looked sideways at Ming Chongyan on his side.
Ming Chongyan wore some cyan Taoist clothes, nodded calmly, and looked solemn.
In front, Murong Nuo, the king of Tuyuhun, was wearing a crown and a gorgeous costume to worship the mountain spirit.
At the same time, the ancestors are sacrificed.
The Murong clan originated from the Xianbei clan in Liaodong, but since moving to the land of Qinghai, the Murong clan has completely severed ties with Liaodong.
Now the ancestral land of the Murong clan is in Bailan Mountain.
The north bank of the Tongtian River.
In the early years, the Murong clan was defeated in the battle of the grassland, and later tried his courage in Bailan Mountain for decades, before finally rising up, defeating countless strong enemies, and taking the land of Tuyuhun.
But it's a pity that the Murong clan split itself into East Tuyuhun and West Tuguhun, and then was destroyed by the Tang Dynasty and Tubo successively, and the ancestral land has long been lost.
Now that the Murong clan has returned to the country, they have sacrificed their ancestors to show their intention of recovering in the future.
But this scene, whether it is Li Xuan or Ming Chongyan, they are all expressionless.
Now that the entire land of Qingnan is under the control of Datang, if the Murong clan wants to take Qingnan back, they must also ask Datang if they agree or not.
Of course, everyone understands that it is just a distant luxury of the Murong clan, which is impossible to achieve now, but the world is impermanent.
Who knows which day in the future, the Tang Dynasty and Tubo will decline at the same time, and at that time, the Tuyuhun people will just raise troops and take back all the old lands that were once there.
Today, on the high mountain of Qingnan, the Murong clan, Murong Nuo, Murong Zhong, Murong Zhi, Murong Yi, and the younger juniors all knelt on the ground and prayed for ancestral blessing.
The right military guard general Lu Chongyu stood calmly on one side, and his son and daughter also stood behind him.
Other envoys from the Eastern and Western Turks, Northern Tianzhu, Kangguo, Khotan, Qiuci, Yanqi, Shule, Huisu, Tiele and other countries stood on both sides and watched in solemnity.
They may not be able to understand the intention of the Murong Clan's festival, but no one really envies the Murong Clan.
Because everyone understands that the restoration of the Murong clan is just the beginning.
The Tubo people are not moving now, firstly, because they are beyond the reach of the whip, and secondly, they want the Murong clan to completely destroy them after they restore the country.
In this way, people who are truly ambitious can completely despair.
At the climax of the ceremony, a ceremonial shouted loudly: "Please read the holy decree of the Tang Emperor Nanchang County, the general of the right guard, and the Shaoqing of Honglu Temple." ”
Li Xuan was dressed in a python robe, walked out with a solemn face, and walked to the high platform.
Looking at the Murong Nuo bowl kneeling in front of him, Li Xuan stretched out his hand to the side, and the holy decree placed on the tray had already fallen into his hands.
Li Xuan looked at everyone present with a solemn face, and shouted in a deep voice: "The Tang Emperor has a will. ”
"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." Ming Chongyan took the lead in chanting, followed by the entire mountaintop, everyone knelt down in unison.
Li Xuan slowly unfolded the holy decree, and then calmly recited: "In the second year of Yifeng, the age of Ding Chou, on the day of March Jiachen Bingxu, the emperor said: Yu Xi!"
Fu Cheng Kangbang, send deep Yue Mu.
There are Tuyuhun people, the world is a Tang Dynasty subordinate, sincere life, pay tribute, Xuanfeng interpretation, and follow the good responsibility.
However, the country of Tibet, inconsiderate of heaven, does not care about public opinion, brazenly sends troops, and exterminates Tugu in danger.
Tuyuhun King Nuo Haobo, many years of salary, hard work, and finally restore the old country, I am very happy.
Now the Murong clan asked for his life again, and the Tang Dynasty was also happy for his subordinates, so he was canonized:
Zuo Xiaowei, the general of Anle Prefecture, and the king of Qinghai, Murong Nuo, is the king of Xiping County, the king of Tuyuhun, and the Khan of "Wudi Ye Bale Dou".
The three cities of Shitong Fuqiu, Delingha and Golmud.
Kaifu Yi is the same as the three divisions.
Wangqing expanded the territory and restored the old land as soon as possible.
Feng: General Zhenguo, General of the Right Leopard Taowei Murong Zhong is the son of Tuyuhun.
Qin this life, the world is with you. ”
"Minister Murong Nuo, Murong Zhong, respectfully receive the holy decree, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" The Murong clan and the others all bowed their heads.
The envoys of the surrounding countries knelt down at the same time: "Long live Your Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, long live, long live." ”
This is the border of the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Taizong has a word, both inside and outside, and those who dare to be disrespectful will be beheaded.
Li Xuan's gaze swept over everyone's body, and before he opened his mouth, no one dared to raise his head directly.
"Rise up, king, please." Li Xuan raised his hand slightly, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Xuan turned sideways and looked at Ming Chongyan on the side, Ming Chongyan bowed slightly and walked to Li Xuan's side, but Li Xuan retreated.
Sure enough, a letter of sainthood was spread out in Ming Chongyan's hand: "In the second year of Yifeng, the age of Ding Chou, on the day of Jiachen Bingxu in March, the queen said:
Yu play! Princess Honghua was named the eldest princess of Xiping, the queen of Tuyuhun; He named Murong Yi as the daughter of the king of Tuyuhun and the lady of Tianshan County. ”
"The ministers respectfully receive the holy order, thank the queen of heaven, the queen of heaven is blessed with Jin'an, and the longevity is extended."
Li Xuan also knelt on the ground, and just as he was about to stand up, he saw Ming Chongyan take out a holy decree again and continue to read it.
"In the second year of Wei Weiyi Feng, the age of Ding Chou, on the day of Jiachen Bingxu in March, the queen said:
Yu play! Zhu Di passed on the seal, sought Jiajia, Qiong Xuan made a combination, and Huazong must be chosen.
The second daughter of the Tianshan Gong Dynasty Lang Chongyu, the second daughter of the Xuan, the Inheritance of the Diagram, the soft and leisurely inner righteousness, and the Shuwen external propaganda.
Both Lian Rong is a relative of the marriage, and the auspicious is in the turtle, which is the concubine of the king of Nanchang County, and the sixth rank of Tengren.
Today, the envoy of the palace consulted to join the army, and Ming Chongyan held the book of etiquette.
Erqi pious rituals, only the ceremony, Kechang Zuoyun, Yonggu Zong.
Can you be careful? ”
"The ministers thank the Holy Grace, and the Queen of Heaven is blessed with gold and longevity." Everyone bowed and saluted, including Li Xuan, but he was already stunned.
The queen of heaven gave him a side concubine.
Li Xuan's gaze subconsciously looked behind Lu Chongyu, a sixteen-year-old woman with a graceful posture, dignified appearance, and a blushing face, leaning over and kneeling on the ground.
A green breast-length skirt with a pink ribbon tied on it, although her face was flushed, a little baby fat made her feel a little chilly in the spring breeze.
Li Xuan's gaze swept over the faces of Lu Chongyu, Murong Yi and others, and even the corners of his eyes swept over Murong Nuo's bowl, Murong Zhong, and the faces of these people did not change in the slightest.
They knew it all, they knew it all before today.
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Li Xuan immediately understood why Murong Nuo was a little slow to treat him yesterday.
He originally thought that it was because Ming Chongyan was making trouble in secret, but he didn't expect it to be the case.
Murong Nuo's granddaughter married herself as a side concubine, although she was a side concubine, his generation was also two generations older than Li Xuan.
In addition, the relationship between the two sides has never been so good, and it is understandable that Murong Nuo has a bad attitude towards him.
In addition, there is the Empress Wu.
The marriage between Li Xuan and the Koji clan not only strengthened the relationship between the royal family and Tuyuhun, but at the same time, there was no need to worry about the relationship between Li Xuan and the Murong clan getting too close.
can also have this relationship to hold the Murong clan hostage, so that they don't dare to act rashly, and even use the Murong clan to hold Li Xuan hostage.
As for the relationship between the two families, this is even more unlikely.
Koji Dou'er is just the granddaughter of the Murong clan, and it is difficult to really affect Tuyuhun.
Even if Li Xuan and Tuyuhun got closer in turn, the DPRK and China would be vigilant in an instant.
What's more, Li Xuan suspects that in the emperor's place, I am afraid that the purpose is still to annex Tuyuhun.
With Li Xuan's identity relationship as a link, once Tuyuhun can't hold Fuqi City, Delingha and Golmud, Li Xuan will annex Tuyuhun and turn into a Tang territory.
Murong Nuo's bowl probably also saw through this, and his attitude was so bad.
But he couldn't stop it.
After all, it was only his granddaughter, and the right military guard general Lu Chongyu was the father.
……
"Lord Wang!" Ming Chongyan stood in front of Li Xuan, and a shadow shrouded him.
Li Xuan raised his head and raised his hand with a solemn face: "The minister's decree!" ”
