Chapter 173: Today and Tonight The Wine Is Not Finished
Needless to say, the four major capitals of the world, the imperial capital and the Jiangdu are the two prosperous places, the middle capital is the place where the Taizu of this dynasty started, only the northern capital, the place where he has lived in the northeast for a long time, although it is listed among the four major capitals, but it is rarely mentioned, in the eyes of the temple princes, this place is not a barbarian land, but it is only the backyard of the private house of the Mu family, the land of the town. If it weren't for the surrender of the Northeast Mu clan back then, this place would not have been able to enter the four capitals anyway.
Just when Xu Beiyou had just returned to Jiangdu and had not left for Huzhou, King Mu Tangzhi of Liao set up a banquet in his northern capital palace, full of friends, full of guests, the people who came, either rich or noble, and in the three states of Northeast China, they are all rich and noble people, the banquet follows the ancient system, one person and one table, the top is naturally the position of the host of the night banquet, and the rest of the people are arranged in order according to their respective identities and status.
Among them, there are political envoys, envoys and commanders of the three states, several governors of the right capital in the northeast right army, important officials in the northern capital, and high-ranking lords of major families and local powerful people. It can be said that when these people get together, they can completely determine the future trend of the huge Northeast.
It's just that for some reason, Mu Tangzhi, the king of Liao, who is the host of the banquet, and the left capital inspector of the right army did not show up for a long time, and only a middle-aged man from the Mu clan greeted the guests here, which made many feudal officials and heroes a little puzzled.
In fact, before this, many people have smelled a different taste, first the king of Wei raised troops, and then the grassland went south, in the early years, because only the king of Wei of Wei, the king of Zhenbei of the grassland and the king of Liao in the northeast really held the military and political power of a place, so it was called the three feudatories, and now the three feudatories have reversed the two feudatories, leaving the last feudatories in the northeast, what should be done, there must be a saying.
Between the staggering, there is a white-clothed monk who came suddenly, because he was an uninvited guest who came belatedly, did not sit at the top, just admired the last seat, and did not taboo the precepts of Buddhism.
When the wine is half-drunk, there is a beautiful woman entering, dressed in a cloud-sleeved gauze dress, with a graceful posture, like a beautiful woman in a painting in the bright lights, starting in the music, dancing.
Between the dances, out of nowhere there are petals, mixed with fragrant flowers, making people feel as if they are in the beautiful spring scenery to watch the falling flowers and colorful, the flowers are good and beautiful, and many officials who were born in the Qingliu celebrities are already stupid.
After the dance, I don't know who was the first to shout hello, and the whole house immediately applauded.
However, the dancers did not retreat, but separated into two columns on both sides, folded their hands at their waists, bent their knees and half-squatted, and said in unison: "Welcome to Your Highness." ”
A young man dressed in a black python robe slowly walked into the hall, his face was handsome, and there was a depression between his eyebrows, not like the appearance of longevity, and he was carrying a pot of wine in his hand, although he was not drunk, but he was full of wine, and it was the owner of this place, known as the king of Liao, Mutangzhi. The reason why it is also called the king of the herd is because according to the legal system, the king of Liao only has the right to control the state of Liaozhou, but the herd clan has been operating in the northeast for hundreds of years, deep-rooted, and is essentially enough to affect the land of the three states.
The guests looked at each other with a look of astonishment. Obviously, the king of the shepherd invited everyone to come here to feast and drink, but he did not show up for a long time, and now after finally appearing, he is full of wine, could it be that he left everyone here to drink elsewhere?
What kind of truth is this?
There was silence.
Mu Tangzhi ignored everyone's surprised gaze, walked slowly, came to the empty main seat and slowly sat down, then gently shook the glass wine jug in his hand, poured the wine into the wine glass in front of him, raised his glass and said loudly: "Tonight, the sages are here, and the cold house is full of brilliance." The ancients wrote that the wine would be entered, and the cup would not stop. This king is a vassal and elegant today, change the three words, the wine is not finished, the cup does not stop, this cup of wine is to salute you!"
The originally quiet hall was lively again, and everyone stood up and raised their glasses in return to the shepherd.

The corners of Mu Tangzhi's mouth hooked up a faint smile, and he said softly: "Today in the northern capital, tomorrow I will go to Liaozhou, when will I go to the imperial capital again?"
Then Mu Tangzhi got up leisurely, originally he had been drinking before entering the door, and drank most of the pot of wine along the way, two blushes appeared on his slightly pale cheeks, which were even more glorious and moving than the dancing princess, and laughed: "I think my Mu clan was only one step away from the imperial capital." ”
Mu Tangzhi stretched out a finger, put it up in front of his lips, and said softly: "It's just one step." ”
After Mu Tang's words fell, a large number of armor soldiers entered the hall from outside the door, standing according to the knife in turn, and the momentum was overwhelming.
The white-clothed dancing girl and the armored soldier are in the same room, and the contrast between the beautiful soldiers and the armor is particularly stark.
Then a general in armor slowly walked into the hall, with a dragon and a tiger step, and the momentum was awe-inspiring.
It was the Governor of the Right Army, the Left Governor of the Right Army, who had never appeared before.
When the old Muwang Shepherd had only one daughter, he married his daughter to his confidant Zha Mang, Zha Qing is Zha Mang's nephew, and Mu Tangzhi is Zha Qing's son, although the two have different surnames, but they are veritable cousins.
Since the two are a family, it is reasonable for Cha Qing to stand on Mu Tangzhi's side.
There was a sudden silence in the hall.
Now this posture, even a blind person knows what it means, but the so-called wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board knows the loyal ministers, the more it is at this time, the more it can understand the word people's hearts.
The political envoy of Liaozhou suddenly stood up and asked sharply: "What does Your Highness mean by this? What does this mean?"
Mu Tangzhi smiled, "What do you mean?"
He lifted the flask and poured a sip of wine, then wiped the wine stains at the corner of his mouth with the big sleeves of the black gold python robe, and laughed: "That's what you mean." ”
This feudal official who has already sprouted the will to live and die has a blue face, but he is not afraid.
Mu Tang walked down from the high platform where the main seat was located, and said slowly: "From today onwards, the three northeastern states will implement autonomy and no longer obey the orders of the Great Qi Imperial Court. ”
"The 200,000 right troops in the Northeast are waiting for the Emperor, and they will only wait for the king to give an order, and they will enter the customs and serve the king. ”
The lips of the feudal officials who had previously angrily reprimanded Mu Tangzhi trembled, and they trembled and stretched out their fingers to point at Mu Tangzhi, their faces pale.
Mu Tangzhi put down the wine jug, squinted his eyes, and said slowly: "People are not finished, and the knife can't stop." ”
Zha Qing took a step forward, came behind the feudal official, and suddenly pulled out the long knife at his waist.
The sword flashed, and blood splattered.
A human head rose into the sky, and a headless corpse fell to the ground with a bang.
Mu Tangzhi looked at the dead head and smiled slightly.
Although he is not a nobleman, he is not much different, since he was a child, he inherited the throne when he grew up, and he was dominant in the three northeastern states. Because the Great Qi court could not tolerate him, a king with a different surname, as early as Xiao Yu's time, the strategy of cutting the feudal domain led by Lan Yu continued to squeeze the foundation of the Northeast Mu clan, and when Xiao Xuan became the emperor, it became even more intensified, and it had already reached the point where it had to be reversed.
If he doesn't rebel, sooner or later the Mu family will be reduced to an empty prince, with no military power, no fiefdom, and let others pinch and rub the round, at that time, I am afraid that a political envoy will not put him in his eyes, and the so-called prince is just a matter of a word from the emperor of the Xiao family.
Life and death are tied to the thoughts of others, how can it be done by a great husband?
A sneer appeared on the corner of Mu Tang's mouth.
The last time I chased the deer, it was the Mu clan who lost and the Xiao clan won, so it was the Xiao clan who became the emperor.
However, the emperor has taken turns, and now it is time to change.
