Chapter 623 Returning East to Reunite(1/2)
The lucky ship heading to the Yellow River Estuary has returned and brought back unexpected troubles.
Yang Liyan, the prefect of Daming, sent twelve officials of the Tang Dynasty.
Among them, Pei Shu, Cui Yuan and Dugu Lun were the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty.
The escort told Zeng Hao that he would send it to Hangzhou.
Zeng Hao could only stay in the army and sent it to Hangzhou. Wouldn't it cause trouble to the rule of the marquis? Is it necessary to ask the marquis how to deal with it?
Luo Xiao handed his subordinates a letter, sent ten subordinates back to his country, boarded the blessed ship alone and started his journey on the sea.
......
An internal strife occurred in Dunhuang City, Shazhou, in the Hexi Corridor.
Zhang Chengfeng, the governor of Guiyi Army, was betrayed by the Cao family and Suo family.
Zhang Chengfeng was killed, but the Zhang family still existed, mainly due to the in-laws of prominent families in Shazhou.
For example, the former governor of the Guiyi Army, Soxun, was killed, and the Sox family still exists.
The Long family of Suzhou accepted the migration of the Xiliang Kingdom, but proposed the Qinghai King similar to the Murong family, and recognized the Yanqi King.
The reason was that the Tang Dynasty had enthroned King Yanqi, and the Anshi Rebellion occurred. The Yanqi King personally led 5,000 troops to support the king.
After considering it, Wei Fufeng agreed to the conditions of the Long Family in Suzhou and abolished the migration of the Xiliang Kingdom, but needed to send troops to guard the Hetao area.
The Yellow River flows through the Loess Plateau in the shape of a character, and the area between the upper part of a character and the Yinshan Mountains is fertile, making it a treasure land suitable for agriculture and animal husbandry.
The Hetao Plain in the southern part of Yinshan Mountain is a "paragraph-like existence" for nomadic peoples.
"Chile River, under the Yin Mountains, the sky is like a dome, covering all the fields. The sky is vast and the wilderness is vast. The wind blows the grass and sees cattle and sheep."
The poem "Chi Le Song" is a true portrayal of the beautiful environment and suitable for life in the Hetao Plain in the south of Yinshan.
The Khitan attacked outside Yanmen Pass many times.
Wei Fufeng was eager to increase his troops to the Hetao Plain and wanted to move to the Long Family in Suzhou to go, one was to defend against the Khitan, and the other was to check and balance the Dangxiang people.
However, using the Long Family in Suzhou may not be able to do what you want.
Once the Long Family in Suzhou took root in the treasure land where the emperor was far away, there would be the consequences of rebelling against the Khitan.
Wei Fufeng met with the Dragon King of the Long Family of Suzhou, the King of Qinghai of the Murong Family of Guazhou, the Duke of Jiuquan County, Cao Yijin, the head of the Suo family, and the head of the Zhang family.
Wei Fufeng promised to give the Cao family, the head of the Suo family, the head of the Zhang family, and the duke of the three prominent families.
The five local snakes gave back their substantial loyalty, sent troops to the emperor's call, and were responsible for the military supplies to the three prefectures of Beiting.
Tong Shan received the order from Wei Fufeng and led his army to the three prefectures of Beiting, and Wei Wendong continued to follow the army.
Wei Fufeng was eager to go home and led 5,000 troops to leave Zhangye City.
Take Agulan, Princess Long, Princess Murong, Princess Cao, Princess Suo, and Princess Zhang.
Wei Fufeng arrived in Wuwei City, Liangzhou, entered the city to meet civil and military officials, and then drank alone with Wang Dahu at the Duke of Liang's mansion.
Wang Dahu left.
Wei Fufeng asked Changlu: "I heard that there are no last people in Liangzhou?"
Changlu nodded and replied: "Some people in the late dynasty accounted for a large proportion of Liangzhou. Most of them were once the tribes of Tubo nobles, that is, family slaves."
Wei Fufeng said, "I heard that the last people hated the Tang people."
Changlu thought about it and replied: "Mr. Marquis, I don't think that the people of the last hate the people of the Tang Dynasty. The people of the last meeting are very simple."
Wei Fufeng nodded.
Changlu said again: "What the Marquis heard about should be the past. Since I was in Liangzhou, few locals have introduced themselves."
Wei Fufeng nodded.
Changlu hesitated and said: "The Prime Minister of Wang Guo was appointed to Liangzhou, and he attached great importance to people's livelihood. He often visited the local area to resolve obstacles and build water conservancy ditches, and cared about the people's treatment of diseases and medicines."
Wei Fufeng nodded and said gently: "I can trust Wang Dahu."
Changlu said: "The kingdom minister is law-abiding, never accepts gifts, and is meticulous in warehousing and outs. He rewards military and political officials in public affairs and severely punishes corrupt officials."
Wei Fufeng nodded and asked, "Has Yaque Wei used it?"
Changlu replied: "I have used it, but I haven't replied yet."
Wei Fufeng said: "If there is information, I will send you timely information. I will order Zeng Hao to command 10,000 troops to the Jiaodong Peninsula at sea. In the future, two groups may advance to the Lulong Jiedu in the future."
Changlu said respectfully: "I dare not delay the marquis' plan."
Wei Fufeng nodded and said gently: "The princess and county lords who come back with me, you should place it with respect."
"I dare not be negligent." Changlu responded respectfully.
Wei Fufeng said gently: "Don't misunderstand that only Agulan is my woman. Others are uncertain, and they may be able to marry my son.
I don’t force them to marry or not, I give them the status and salary of the princess and county lords. I have not decided on marriage until I was seventeen years old, so I can only return to their parents’ home.”
Changlu nodded and said, "I understand, treat it as a guest official lady."
Wei Fufeng nodded and said, "You go and settle it."
Changlu left, and Wei Fufeng was thinking about tea.
A little while, Wei Fufeng shook his head with a smile. Changlu was obviously grateful to Wang Dahu, for fear that Wang Dahu would be suspicious.
Wang Dahu is a good minister who works hard and is simple and pragmatic.
Wei Fufeng is not disgusted with Changlu's kindness, and people who lack the kindness of kindness cannot be trusted.
Wei Fufeng felt that they were persistent and loyal to their masters and had a good impression of the Changquanchangshui he had come into contact with.
As for Changshun, it’s time to clean up.
......
Wei Fufeng was patient and stayed in Liangzhou for ten days to inspect, and socialized with all the scholars, farmers, industry and commerce.
The princess and county lords who accompanied him were treated with courtesy. They were surprised that they not only had good food and accommodation, but also received a salary and went out to Wuwei City freely.
Wei Fufeng set off and left Liangzhou, arrived in Lingzhou in ten days, and had another inspection and social event.
Leaving Lingzhou, he arrived in Suizhou with a rough patrol, and only saw Li Yuzhu and Ruan Niang.
Chunhong took Wei Wenyu and Wei Wennan to Chang'an to meet with the fourteenth lady and his daughter.
After hearing the fluctuations in his mood, Wei Fufeng introduced Agulan, the princess and county lords.
Li Yuzhu treated it with a smile and ordered Ruan Niang to place it.
Wei Fufeng washed away the dust, Li Yuzhu served to comb her hair, and asked, "The husband established the Kingdom of Xiliang, but his wife cannot understand it, so there is no announcement for the time being."
Wei Fufeng explained: "My idea is to seek common ground while reserving differences, and my intention is to build a military strength in the north at the lowest price and at the lowest time."
"Aren't you afraid of losing your tail when the seven kingdoms of the Han Dynasty?" Li Yuzhu argued.
Wei Fufeng said: "Compared to the big one, the consequences of the Khitan occupying the Hetao Plain are even more dangerous. I must first control the area south of Yinshan and seize the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun."
Li Yuzhu said: "The Jiedushi is conducive to the unification of the central government and the establishment of the kingdom will lead to endless troubles."
Wei Fufeng said: "Only the kingdom can adapt to local conditions and avoid misleading the matter on paper in the court center.
Establishing the Kingdom of Xiliang can also allow Dangxiang people, Uighurs, and Tubo people to have an equal sense of belonging to the country and country with the Han people and are willing to protect their territory." Li Yuzhu whispered: "The Han people have a saying that if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "You are right, so I want to become a race. My children and grandchildren and I marry each race, so that my bloodline will become the king of all races, seeking the unity of common ground while reserving differences."
Li Yuzhu whispered: "The Han people value the most pure bloodline, and it is difficult for the husband to blunder and criticize him."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Is Emperor Wu of Han good? How many people died at the cost of a vigorous army, causing the Han Dynasty people to live in poverty and the country's foundation to be empty."
Li Yuzhu whispered: "My husband is very honest. What I mean is that the end is too big, and the civil war will be incredible."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Look at Liangzhou, the wars were turbulent in the past. Since Wang Dahu was in charge of Liangzhou, Liangzhou has become a stable and prosperous farming and animal husbandry, and has a wealth of warehouses. I can send out a large army to crush him, all depends on Wang Dahu's accumulation."
Li Yuzhu nodded and said, "General Wang is indeed a capable minister."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "So, if you become the Queen of Xiliang, you can manage your rights for a long time, and my heirs cannot deprive you."
"I may not be able to live longer than my husband." Li Yuzhu said softly.
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Don't say that in the future, I need the minimum price and minimum time to build a military strength in the north."
Li Yuzhu whispered: "My wife understands."
Wei Fufeng whispered: "Since ancient times, the central court's efforts to defend the north have almost been overwhelmed, mainly because of the excessive internal friction, the suspicion of the temple, the treacherous and treacherous, and the waste of the people and the country."
Li Yuzhu said lightly, "The princess and county lords brought back by the husband will stay in Suizhou in the future."
Wei Fufeng said: "You misunderstood that those you bring back may not become my women. Perhaps, my sons, I will give them a salary and allow them to choose their own marriage and raise them until they are seventeen years old."
Li Yuzhu whispered: "The husband is willing to do it. If he doesn't point to marriage, his sons would rather marry the Han official lady."
Wei Fufeng was silent, and after a while, he said, "I give my children and grandchildren privileges to marry two wives."
A wife must have a noble daughter from the north or southwest, and she is called the princess according to her title.
A wife must not be a noble daughter and be called the Madam of the Imperial Family.”
