Chapter 166: Jinyang (II)

Fu Fu wanted to lead the horse for the emperor, but was politely rejected by the emperor. After Gao Wei laughed and talked with him for a few words, he looked at the canopy on the left and right, the high mountains on the east and west sides were winding and majestic, and the black shadow of Luliang Mountain looked extremely heavy under the canopy. In the middle of the plain, a giant city stands tall. And he's right under this city. I'm coming, I'm going to conquer it...... Cushman thought silently, pulled the reins, and entered the city.

Jinyang was founded in the Spring and Autumn Period Zhou Jing King 13 years, since ancient times the status is special and transcendent, once the capital of Zhao State, more important town of Han and Wei Dynasties, with the flow of history, step by step has become a hegemon with a unique political status in the whole world. Get Jinyang, get the world. This is the land of Gao Qi and Li Tang's Longxing.

The city of Jinyang is as bright as day, and almost every household hangs a lantern or a torch in front of the door. The ironclad warriors on both sides of the avenue stood with swords and spears, their faces were so thick that they couldn't see each other. The knights behind him slowly rushed up and guarded the emperor in the center.

As the emperor walked, he suddenly said with emotion: "This is Jinyang...... I can barely remember ......"

And some of the people fell on their knees by the roadside. Cushman & Wakefield raised his hand and motioned to flatten his body. Suddenly, there was a trance. Although he ascended the throne and became emperor four years ago, the power is all in the hands of his father Gao Zhan, and he has never inspected Jinyang alone, nor has he ever experienced the pleasure of being in charge of the world. In my memory, every time I come to Jinyang, I am in a carriage. The ears were full of the creaking sound of the wheels, the eyes were full of armor, and the people who were in the cold light of swords, guns and halberds did not dare to open their eyes. Outside, thousands of people often bow down and praise merits.

The young Gao Wei was always stimulated by the hot blood, but he was defeated by Gao Zhan's indifferent and even vigilant gaze, and the flame in his heart was slowly extinguished...... He gradually understood that his father Gao Zhan didn't like someone to experience this feeling with him, even if it was his own son, he would never allow it.

Sons and sons and sons, this word, heavy for ministers, light for sons......

But now it's different, the era of Emperor Wucheng Gao Zhan has passed, and there is only one ruler of the Gao Qi Dynasty, and that is him, Gao Wei.

A gorgeous carriage stopped in front, Gao Wei paused, looked back at Fu Fu and Murong Sanzang and the others, and said: "It's already the middle of the day, and it won't be long before dawn, and the court meeting can't be delayed, so I won't get on the sedan chair to change clothes...... Let's ride into the Imperial City! ”

"Your Majesty, this is not etiquette!" Tang Yong was in a hurry and suddenly shouted to dissuade him, and when the emperor looked over, he realized that what he had just done was not appropriate, so he blushed and said: "The hundred officials of Jinyang worship Your Majesty in front of the Taiji Palace, and on such occasions, you should cherish it, and ask Your Majesty to go back to the sedan chair to change clothes and change into a crown dress...... As for the court meeting, it can be postponed slightly, and there is Duan Dazai in charge of hundreds of officials, so there should be no chaos. ”

Gao Wei only wore a well-fitting regular clothes, he looked down and said with a smile: "That's right, but time waits for no one, I said that I would summon the ministers at the end of the day, so I can't break my promise...... In this way, take the armor and enter the imperial city with the armor! What do you think? ”

It is too cumbersome to change the crown of God, and the conditions here are inconvenient, so it takes more time...... Tang Yong thought for a moment, gritted his teeth and nodded. Gao Wei Lisuo put on his armor and galloped towards the Imperial City.

In front of the Jinyang Taiji Palace, the courtiers have been cleaned up, under the hundred steps, there are mighty stone dragons lying on both sides, the dew in the scale armor has formed frost, and the cool breeze blows. After waiting for a long time, there was already a slight commotion in the courtiers' queue, Duan Shao suddenly raised his eyes and drank in a low voice: "...... Quiet!! Duan Shao's thin and slightly clumsy posture was as loose and vigorous, and every look was as sharp as a knife, which suddenly shocked those who were in turmoil.

As soon as Lao Duan made a move, he was extraordinary, and a roar made those lords with their nostrils facing the sky obey one by one.

Gao Yanzong stood solemnly at the bottom of Duan Dazai, and he was amazed in his heart...... It is worthy of being a person who has been able to guard the Great Qi Portal for so many years......

Gao Yanzong's heart was very active, and he was wandering when Duan Shao suddenly looked at him and asked, "Are you sure it's foolproof?" ”

Gao Yanzong came back to his senses, fortunately he prepared well in his homework, quickly understood what Duan Shao meant, nodded and said: "Don't worry, you can't get out of the chaos, I transferred three Xiaoguo battalions to watch, and those who dare to mobilize soldiers and horses without a warrant will be killed!" ”

"Well...... "Actually, Duan Shao was just worried that Gao Yanzong would not be able to do things well, the original plan was to let Gao Yanzong deal with it first, and then the most important link was of course for him to take care of it personally. But His Majesty came too suddenly, and he didn't have time to prepare.

I didn't expect Gao Yanzong to sort things out so quickly.

It can be regarded as a fortunate thing, the emperor can not have the slightest mistake when he arrives in Jinyang.

It's just that...... It's just that why did the holy car arrive early? Duan Shao's brows were tightly knit, worried. Duan Shao, as a giant in the DPRK and China, although he does not manage government affairs, his political sense is also extremely keen. When he reached his position, many things in the court could not be hidden from him. The higher he stands, the stronger the wind he perceives, and there are many things and many things that the characters below are unaware of, but there are no secrets to him.

Since Gao Wei came to power, Duan Shao once felt extremely excited by a series of measures taken by the imperial court to set things right, and even now, his thoughts on supporting Jinshang have not been reduced. He could see very clearly that Daqi was still crumbling not long ago, and it was Jinshang who pulled back the carriage that was about to crash into the cliff. In his opinion, many of the emperor's policies so far are wild, but they are all right without exception, and in less than two or three years, Daqi can return to its peak state.

He naturally noticed that the Yecheng Imperial Court was becoming more and more unfriendly to Jinyang's side, but this had nothing to do with him, in his opinion, Jinyang was indeed very necessary to rectify, and he had always expressed his support openly and secretly. However, he was also afraid that the emperor would be young and impatient, and the six towns of Jinyang would not be able to subdue overnight. If the emperor is in a hurry, I am afraid it will backfire......

The emperor couldn't wait to rush to Jinyang so much, could he already wait and wanted to directly deter the nobles of the six towns?

Duan Shao had to consider this possibility.

But again, he disagreed.

No matter how good the emperor's idea is, it will not work.

The situation in Jinyang is related to the safety of the entire Great Qi, at present, the six towns are still the foundation of Gaoqi's rule, and the foundation has not been consolidated, so they do things that dig their own foundations, not by Ming Jun. The reason why Emperor Shenwu was able to become powerful was because the six towns of Xianbei all supported him, as long as the six towns were there, Daqi could recruit hundreds of thousands of warriors. But if the hearts of the people in the six towns are scattered, the blow to Gao Qi will be absolutely deadly!

He made up his mind that His Majesty could not listen to the words of the sour Confucians. How could he, Duan Shao, not know that the embankment of thousands of miles collapsed in the anthill, but the six towns couldn't move, at least not now. It can only be corrected little by little with a knife, not uprooted!

Now there are already voices in Jinyang Liufang that want to compete with Yecheng, and these days, the strange political atmosphere in Jinyang also comes from this. It is rumored that the emperor is going to rectify the six towns. This makes a lot of people uneasy...... Duan Shao also appeased many people for this, but there was still no way to suppress these voices. In the long run, the impact on the situation in the DPRK is unknown, and this is very unfavorable in terms of managing the army alone. If the morale of the army is weakened and everyone is in danger, an iron-blooded army will become a rabble.

"Your Majesty came on horseback......!" I don't know who shouted. Behind the palace wall, more than a dozen knights suddenly burst out, and when they arrived at the guards, they restrained their horses one after another. The guards all paid their respects. Gao Wei ran all the way to the palace steps, got off his horse, and slowly walked up the steps. Duan Shao took the courtiers with the highest status, stood on the half step, and bowed to the emperor again: "Old minister Duan Shao, see Your Majesty!" He couldn't bow down, the emperor held him with one hand, and said with a smile: "Dazai is old, and he is a pillar of the Great Qi, so you can avoid these false courtesies......" He looked around again, "If you want to worship, you can worship later." ”

The ministers looked at each other, and the emperor looked very kind today...... It didn't look like he was here to kill, he didn't wear a crown dress, he didn't sit in a car, but he came on a horse and armor, very casually, and he felt a little closer to them invisibly in his heart......

The emperor turned and went up the steps, and everyone saluted, "...... My emperor has no borders!! ”

The sky has just revealed the white belly of the fish, Gao Wei stood in front of the Taiji Palace, "Zhuqing is flat......"

At this time, there was no kneeling and bowing, unlike the Ming and Qing dynasties, not only kneeling to the emperor, but also kneeling when the lower officials met the upper officials, the class hierarchy consciousness was strict, and the backbone of the soldiers and warriors were all gone. As soon as they encounter something, they become poor kowtow worms one by one.

Gao Wei knew that countless people were waiting for him to open his mouth at this time, and wanted to know his next moves, "Fenzhou victory, I am very relieved, in this battle, I have expanded the land for hundreds of miles, and it is difficult to count, Dazai Duan Shao and Zuo Xianghu Luguang have made great contributions......!" ”

"In addition, Gao Yanzong, Gao Changgong, Fu Fu, Qi Lianmeng, Xue Guyan, A Yuzi, Duan Chang, etc. are also brave and good at fighting, demonstrating the great Qi's martial might! It's just that...... It is a pity that Mo Duo Lou Xianjing, Wang Xian and other generals died in battle......"

Mo Duo Lou Xianjing was killed by Yu Wenxian in Fenbei, and Wang Xian was killed by Yang Su in the Battle of Pinglong. Mo Duo Lou Xianjing is Hu Luguang's right-hand man, it is a pity that he died, Wang Xian's ability is not bad, but Yang Su, who killed him, is now in his hands, how to calculate this business is not a loss. The posthumous and honorable appearance of the two of them are indispensable.

"Pass on my life, and all soldiers who have made meritorious contributions will be rewarded by one percent more than in previous years!" The household department has just collected autumn grain and tax silver, the treasury is full, and Gao Wei's reward has strengthened a lot, "Soldiers who are killed or disabled in battle will be given 30 acres of fertile land and 14 horses of silk at home, and they will be exempt from tax for three years!" ”

Naturally, there is a sound of praise and applause. Gao Wei paused, and just as everyone was waiting for the emperor to get into the topic, they waited for a sentence:

"Okay, that's it, let's retreat......"

Everyone was dumbfounded, this ...... It's just gone?

Suddenly, I found that Your Majesty, you are very naughty......

Duan Shao's heart was put into his stomach, and it seemed that the emperor was still measured.
