Chapter 262: The Fisherman and the Invitation
The blood and skulls of the people...... Let the surnames of Qinghe County, who were originally fluttering, wake up, especially in this chaos, no matter how they mobilize public opinion, they still can't get the sympathy of the people, and they only arouse the disgust and spurning of the people, which shocks them even more.
In the years that followed, they found more shock.
The one who was selected to be sent to Chang'an City as the queen must be the best and smartest woman of the surnames of Qinghe County, who has been educated for many years in the clan, but in addition to the Empress Dowager Song who was imprisoned in the Conghua period, the queens of all dynasties are famous for their virtuous and quiet in the Chang'an Palace, and they are extremely silent about court affairs, and they rarely speak for the surnames of Qinghe County.
No country can escape the law of history, the same is true of the invincible Tang Empire, with the long-term stability, as the war cannot continue endlessly, this old empire gradually ossified and decayed with the passage of time, but I don't know why, compared with the once glorious empires recorded in the history books of the princes of Qinghe County, the role of this historical law in the Tang State is obviously much weaker, the empire's ossification and decay is very slow, whenever there is a big change happening, it seems that there is some kind of power in the dark, the Tang Dynasty is about to overturn the carriage to repair, and then forcibly drag back to the right pathγ
With the growing power of the Tang Dynasty, the majesty of the royal family has become more and more unshakable, and after many years of suppression, the people of Qinghe County have returned early, and the most important thing is that the academy has quietly replaced part of the role of the imperial examination, and the surnames of Qinghe County are no longer the supreme glory of a thousand years ago, and the strength and authority are much weaker than at the beginning. But after all, the surnames of Qinghe County are the family of thousands of generations, and the heritage is incomparable, with sincere surrender, they changed their attitude towards Chang'an City, and under the silent dance of the royal family, the surnames gradually returned to the stage of the world.
Today's Qinghe County has a power to be reckoned with in the court, and there are many university scholars in the opposition, although they are still extremely far away from military power, but no one knows if there will be a great cultivator who knows his fate in the depths of the secluded ancestral hall of these thousands of generations.
So even today, being able to obtain a Qinghe girl is still the best ideal for many men, and the original wife of Zeng Jing, a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, is the daughter of Qinghe Cui.
However, the surnames of Qinghe County, who once had infinite scenery in the world, once occupied most of the seats above the court, and had several Xiling gods, where would they be willing to accept the current situation?
The gate valve is a kind of cold storage, instinctively to search for more benefits, so although they dare not rebel, low-key seems to be about to be forgotten by the world, but in their bones they are still extremely eager to have a higher status in the Tang Dynasty, more power, hundreds of years, Qinghe County has produced nine more queen mothers, this is the result of their efforts, and more than ten years ago, they tried to make Qinghe County have another queen mother.
At that time, the current emperor of the emperor who first ascended the throne of the queen died of an unfortunate illness, and the eyes of the princes of Qinghe County were red like vultures staring at carrion, and they used all the strength of the court and the opposition to send the most outstanding and intelligent girl of the seven surnames into the palace, and then after some planning and spending a lot of money, finally let His Majesty meet this girl by chance, and then there was a heart-warming story.
However, the princes of Qinghe County took great pains to create that seemingly beautiful situation, but they didn't know that there was a big man named Liansheng before them, and he had already launched a similar plan.
Liansheng won, and the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect has become the current queen.
Liansheng was also defeated, because the queen mother fell in love and left the mission of the Demon Sect behind.
The princes of Qinghe County were even more defeated, not only did their hopes fail, but they also offended the queen very strictly, which was equivalent to offending His Royal Highness the Prince and General Xiahou.
The only one who really won, the emperor wears the next person.
Although the princes of Qinghe County lost a mess, they dared to design this matter, which also shows the strong strength and self-confidence of these families, you must know that the Zhong family, who is now incomparable in Yangguan City, is only the weakest of the seven surnames in Qinghe County.
For more than ten years, because of the events of the year offended the queen mother and other big figures in Chang'an City, the surnames of Qinghe County became more and more low-key and silent, especially those old people in the clan who were afraid to enter Beijing.
As everyone knows, the Tang Emperor and the Empress have a deep relationship, and the Empress still looks radiant, and she will not die early if she is in excellent health, and the East Palace will naturally not have the opportunity to change hands to Qinghe County, but fortunately, there is a very favored princess under the emperor's axis.
Today's surnames in Qinghe County can't get the goodwill of the queen's mother, so naturally they will not hesitate to start supporting Her Royal Highness the princess, more precisely, the prince Li Huiyuan, who is assisted by the princess.
In a quiet mansion in the south of Chang'an, there is an old man with a calm expression sitting in the study of the back house, this old man's surname is Song, and he is worshiped in the Song clan, and he also has an official identity in the court.
Twenty years ago, this Song was the guest of the Tianshu Office, but he knew very well that this ...... The identity of Keqing is more of a reward from the imperial court to the Song family of Qinghe County, so he has never paid attention to the affairs of the Tianshu Office, and he has not even entered Chang'an City, but today he finally came.
General Xiahou is about to return to old age, and the power of the empress seems to have been weakened by Yan Zhan, but in the eyes of the princes of Qinghe County, this move has successfully resolved all the contradictions accumulated in the past few decades, and they don't want to see Xiahou leave Chang'an City with a smile like this. Song Yu stood respectfully in front of the old man, and said with a bitter expression, "Three ancestors, the court has already made a decision, everyone knows the mind of the raccoon, how to persuade at this time, and there are not many colleagues who are willing to write with me. β
Song Xianfeng frowned, thinking about the family's scenery in the court back then, and said in a hoarse voice: "I think the general constitution was a member of the clan back then...... Contacting more than a dozen imperial historians is just a trivial matter, where it is as difficult as now, you don't have to be too embarrassed, just can't do it. β
Song Yushi didn't dare to say much, but his expression was obviously a lot more relaxed.
"Now it seems that I can only pin my hope on that Mr. Thirteen. β
The old worshipper said expressionlessly: "If this incident really happens, the academy will inevitably break with General Xiahou, and by that time...... Why did the queen's son still climb on the dragon chair?"
Song Yushi was not a cultivator...... Although he knew that many ministers in the court were from the academy, he still couldn't understand what the old ancestor said...... I wondered how the academy could decide on the succession to the throne?
The old worshipper sighed and said: "That thirteenth gentleman is not afraid of Tang Law and killed Huang Xing and Yu Shuizhu on the rain street, that is because he is strong enough and confident that he will not be caught by anyone, but in Xiahou's face, the strength and weakness are easy to strength, if I were him, I don't know how to start, no matter how fast his realm has improved in the past two years, it is still impossible to be Xiahou's opponent, Xiahou can pinch him to death with just one finger." β
Song Yushi listened to the clouds, and subconsciously said, "Do we want to help that Mr. Thirteen secretly?"
Old Qin glanced at him...... The white eyebrows frowned slightly, and he said: "Xiahou returning to the old man is the means of the academy, if Ning Que wants to forcibly break the rules, the academy will not help him, but it may not stop him...... The most likely thing is to watch from the sidelines, but that's because Ning Que is a student of the master and a member of the academy itself...... But if we get involved in this matter, do you think the academy really doesn't dare to attack Qinghe County?"
Song Yushi smiled a little embarrassedly, but he was thinking in his heart, if the clan did not dare to intervene in this matter, wouldn't it be unreasonable for your old man to come to Chang'an City?
The old worshipper guessed what this distant nephew was thinking in his heart, but he didn't give any explanation, and slowly closed his eyes, he didn't need to play the unpredictable at this moment, it was really because he was still thinking about it at this time, thinking about how to defeat Xiahou for that Academy Thirteen Gentlemen.
If Ning Que couldn't figure it out, then this battle would never be able to happen, and if the old worshipper couldn't figure it out, the Qinghe County surnames and Her Royal Highness the princess behind him wouldn't be able to benefit from this matter.
The confusion of the princes of Qinghe County is also the confusion of many people in Chang'an City at this time, as the rumors of Ning Que's life story spread in a very limited range, the big names in the palace are frowning and thinking, what will Ning Que do without the support of the academy.
Those big people who vaguely guessed the inside story, like His Royal Highness the Prince, had not been deceived by Ning Que's seemingly frivolous and scoundrel wound pretend, they all knew that Ning Que was a guy with strong self-control ability, very rational and even indifferent and ruthless because of reason.
At the moment when there was no hope, it stands to reason that Ning Que should not make any moves, and the big men thought hard for Ning Que for a long time, but they couldn't find any hope, so their mood gradually relaxed, and they felt that Chang'an City should be peaceful this autumn, and there would be no problems between the academy and the military.
It was at this time that a ...... The news spread from the palace of the general of the town army to the palace, and also to the mansions of the princes and ministers, making these big people puzzled.
General Xiahou feasted on Mr. Ning Que at the mansion tonight.
In the courtyard of the house where Yanming Lake hatched.
Ye Hongyu looked at Ning Que in the shadow of the mast tree, looked at the look on his face, and suddenly asked, "I don't know now why you need strength." β
Ning Que said: "It is worthy of being the great priest of the Judgment Division of the Temple, who escaped from Taoshan and lived in Chang'an City, and can still receive such secret information. β
Ye Hongyu said: "Of course, the revenge of killing my father must be avenged, but now is obviously the most inappropriate time, you can't even beat me now, why should you kill Xiahou?"
Ning Que said, "When did I say that I was going to kill Xiahou?"
"Feeling. β
Ye Hongyu said calmly: "This autumn lake, the house where the lake is incubated, the food made by Sangsang, your breathing, and the smell of the garden, all tell me that you are preparing to kill." β
Ning Que shook his head and said, "Killing people violates Tang Law, and the teacher and senior brother don't allow me to do this." β
Ye Hongyu said: "Then why do you still want to go to the banquet." β
Ning Que said with a smile: "Why don't you go if you can eat for nothing? I can't beat him now, and I can't kill him, so I have to eat up all the delicacies and delicacies in the general's mansion, which can be regarded as revenge." β
Ye Hongyu naturally didn't believe his words, and said, "If there is really a dispute between you and Xiahou, the temple will benefit a lot from it, so I won't stop you." β
Ning Que said: "I asked Sang Sang to prepare a supper, so I will come back alive." β
(After writing these two chapters, I suddenly felt empty in my head, and I was shocked, so I hurried to sort out the details behind me, I knew that I was taboo, but I still couldn't help but say, I'm not in a good state these days, and what I wrote feels a little wordy, and I want to correct it, so I start from the next chapter, and I try to think about it.)
