Chapter 271: One Allures the Country and One Allures the City


Originally, in the early autumn of the second year of Liyang Xiangfu, the civil and military officials in the temple of Dachu were eager to divide the world, but just three months later, there was an atmosphere of mourning all over the field, if it weren't for the old lady Sun Xiji who was never sad or happy, and Cao Changqing still had no signs of taking over the military power from Xie Xichen, I am afraid that the court would have already become a pot of porridge.

However, for the empress Jiang Ji who sat on the dragon chair and wore a dragon robe, it made no difference whether she was looking at a group of red-faced courtiers or a group of officials who were frowning, and even she had a little unknown ridicule, earlier Da Chu defeated the strong with the weak on the Guangling River, and wiped out the Guangling Naval Division of the vassal king Zhao Yi, and then it was a successful sneak attack on the grain and grass of the southern Xinjiang army.

But it also needs the "queen" to conform to the etiquette system, not Song Maolin, who is known as the Great Chu Shuangbi with Xie Xichen, the eldest grandson of the Song valve who is known as the "Northern Xu and Southern Song Dynasty" together with the King of Xinliang, has the highest voice.

Maybe Song Maolin is so brilliant that even the old lady Sun Xiji hinted that Cao Changqing, who is far away from the court, might as well agree to this marriage, which is not only conducive to the stability of the Jiang family of Dachu, but also how "lowly" His Majesty is.

However, with the number one general in southern Xinjiang, Wu Chongxuan, and the vassal king Zhao Bing parted ways, and returned to Guangling Road as the Shangshu of the Liyang Military Department and the general of the southern expedition, Lu Shengxiang finally showed the fangs that a famous general in the Spring and Autumn Period should have, and Song Li, who had also walked through Tai'an City, snatched all the military power in the hands of Zhao Yi, the king of Guangling, especially Chen Zhibao and the elite of Shu into the battlefield, the Great Chu front was fully contracted, and the frenzy on the temple that seemed to be close to Tai'an City poured a basin of cold water on the head.

Most of the ministers and nobles are like frosted eggplants.

At this time, Cao Changqing, who had previously intended to sharpen the young generals of Great Chu, finally withdrew from the Guangling River Water Division and returned to the capital of Great Chu as the commander of Great Chu and concurrently served as Shang Shuling.

Without Cao Changqing's Divine Phoenix City, people's hearts are in panic all day long, with Cao Changqing's Divine Phoenix City, even if he does not bring a single soldier, the sky above the capital of Great Chu suddenly dispersed, and he saw the light of day again.

In fact, everyone knows that Xinda Chu will indeed not be able to return to the country without Jiang Xi, but if Cao Changqing is missing the previous running around, it may be a sad situation of being unable to return to the country and having no intention of returning to the country.

After retiring from the court today, Cao Changqing, who did not have time to participate in the early dynasty, went to the palace to resume his life, changed into a brand-new court dress, walked through the corridor under the guidance of the celebrant and eunuch, and waited quietly outside the imperial study to wait for His Majesty to wait for the audience, and everything followed the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.

The old eunuch was nervous, if it was in the past, His Majesty the Emperor who had already learned that Cao Changqing had entered Beijing, let alone met him in the imperial study, he should have greeted him outside the capital.

This means that there is a very likely knot between His Majesty and Lord Shang Shuling, who used to respect him as his own parent.

This is not a blessing for the country.

Cao Changqing, who was expressionless, waited at the bottom of the stairs, smiling bitterly in his heart, of course he knew why His Majesty wanted to hang himself out, angry, and very angry, because the old lady strongly recommended Song Maolin at that time, and he did not agree but did not refuse, how could she not be angry and did not take the Daliang Dragon Sparrow Sword to cut him Cao Changqing, even if she gave herself a lot of face for Uncle Zhao.

Cao Changqing did not make a sound after the worried elderly eunuch bent down to cover the door, standing in place, the imperial study of the Great Chu Palace was extremely spacious, although the many precious heavy weapons in the room were given to Zhao Yi, the king of Guangling, was greedy for ink, but how deep the Great Chu heritage was, in the early days of the restoration of the country, the royal style of the imperial study was not lost back then.

Cao Changqing looked up and saw that the young woman was wearing a yellow dragon robe, bowing her head and holding a pen to practice calligraphy on the tribute rice paper, without using the imperial pen "Millennium Green", which means that the country is extended.

Cao Changqing slightly looked away, saw the seal engraved with the "Golden Ou Yonggu" four words of the gold lacquer cup, according to the etiquette system, every year on the first day of the first month, the Great Chu Emperor will open the pen in this open window, with the rod of "millennium green" in the cup full of Tu Su wine dipped, write "the world is peaceful" and "national longevity Changchun" auspicious words, presented to the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs.

Before this, she had expressed some embarrassment to him, saying that her handwriting was not beautiful, and quietly proposed that she should ask Uncle Zhao to write for her.

Of course, Cao Changqing didn't nod, but just comforted her to write and write, write a few less, and when the time comes, she will only give it to a few people who know the roots, and there will be no shame.

Cao Changqing heard that after ascending the throne, for the day of the New Year's Spring Festival, she practiced calligraphy this autumn and winter, anyway, it must be a hundred times more diligent than practicing swords.

It is said that a small basket of paper has been written, and it is not discarded, so that the palace maids and eunuchs are not allowed to move it.

Cao Changqing looked at the wide table, looked at the slightly slender and thin bright golden eyes, his eyes were in a trance, and he seemed to remember a vague scene many years ago.

Cao Changqing suddenly felt a little sad, and even more guilty.

Now that there is no one to call Jiang Ni, the Empress of Great Chu did not look at Cao Changqing angrily, and said angrily: "I'm still angry, at least I have to write thirty words to dissipate my anger, wait for Uncle Zhao, you wait." ” Cao Changqing couldn't cry or laugh, moved a chair and sat next to the window, the chair was tilted towards the window, not only could he see the scenery outside the window, but he could also catch a glimpse of the little girl who wore a dragon robe and didn't look like an emperor.

But even Cao Changqing couldn't have imagined that Jiang Ji would sit on the dragon chair every day and accept civil and military affairs The worship of the official, the more and more intense royal bearing, even the old lady Sun Xiji nodded secretly, not only did he not lose his honor, but even he, an old man who had a foothold in the temples of the two major dynasties, put aside his identity as a woman and didn't care, and he couldn't find the slightest flaw.

Her monarch played right, from the beginning The first was slightly restrained and now is skillful and wishful, a thousand miles a day, and he is simply a natural emperor.

Sun Xiji privately smiled at his colleagues in the world, His Majesty practiced the sword realm god, and the same is true for being the king of a country.

Meticulously wrote more than a dozen words, and secretly glanced at Cao Changqing, who was sitting precariously, Jiang Xi pursed his lips, probably realizing that it was not appropriate for him to compete with Uncle Zhao, so he gently put down his pen and snorted coldly: "I'm done."

Cao Changqing held back a smile and said softly: "There are eleven more words, I'm not in a hurry." ” Jiang Ji glared and said, "Uncle Zhao" Cao Changqing smiled and said: "Okay, I know that Song Maolin's matter has made Your Majesty angry, I went to Beijing this time to be a punching bag for Your Majesty, after all, the old lady is old, and Your Majesty can't be as knowledgeable as him." ” Jiang Ji grabbed the brush again demonstratively and nodded, "If it weren't for being this emperor, I would have secretly beaten that guy surnamed Song into a pig's head." ” Cao Changqing couldn't help but smile: "It's not good to learn from anyone, that King of Beiliang pulled out the beard of Jin Lanting in Tai'an City, so that the waiter of the Ministry of Rites dared to go to the Yamen to order Mao after more than half a month." ” Jiang Xi put the pen on the pen holder heavily.

Cao Changqing hesitated for a moment, but still sighed: "Qingliang Mountain must have a princess of Beiliang after the big victory, and in this matter, he can't be blamed." ” Jiang Xi lightly knocked her fist on the table, glared angrily, then wrinkled her nose and snorted coldly: "Blame me" Cao Changqing smiled and hurriedly waved his hand: "Don't dare, don't dare." ” He kind of understood, that Song Maolin was nothing at all, and the marriage of the king of Beiliang to a concubine was the focus of our Great Chu Emperor's anger.

So he, Cao Changqing, actually gave the kid surnamed Xu a disaster this time.

Cao Changqing's smile was gentle.

When men and women are young, he likes her, and she likes him, and there is no one who doesn't like anyone, it's good.

Men in the world have a wish, and they wish to win the heart of one person, and they will not be separated.

But compared to being afraid of seeing the beauty with a white head, I am more afraid of being blushing and having no white head.

Cao Changqing was a little gloomy, and questioned himself for the first time, whether he was wrong I've missed it, why let them miss it now Liu Songtao, who converted to Buddhism, persuaded him with life and death, Confucian Yan Shenggong persuaded him with reason, and even the smoke of gunpowder in the entire Central Plains did not persuade him to "let go".

Jiang Xi asked cautiously: "Uncle Zhao, are you angry?"

Cao Changqing restrained his thoughts, shook his head and said softly: "Even if Uncle Zhao is angry with the whole world, and even with Da Chu, he will not be angry with His Majesty." ” Jiang Ji sighed angrily, "Although I'm a little sorry for my father and mother for saying this, I think it's okay if my mother could have known Uncle Qi Zhao earlier."

Cao Changqing, known as "the world's one stone monopolizes eight buckets", "Da Chu is the most proud", "Tsing Yi is early, Da Chu does not die", Cao Guanzi, who has passed through the corridor of Liyang Palace three times, his face turned red, coughed a few times, and quickly interrupted what Jiang Xi was going to say next, and then feigned anger and said: "Your Majesty" Jiang Xi smiled narrowly: "My mother can't meet Uncle Qi Zhao earlier, otherwise there will be no Jiang Ni for me." ” For some reason, she calls herself Jiang Ni, not the "Jiang Xi" who will be destined to go down in history regardless of the success or failure of the restoration of the country.

Cao Changqing said angrily with a dark face: "Your Majesty, be careful that I deliberately forgot a sentence, but someone in Tai'an City asked me to bring it to Your Majesty."

Jiang Xi hurriedly straightened her sitting posture and said seriously: "Uncle Zhao, state affairs are important, you say" Cao Changqing said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, Weichen is a little thirsty. ” The Empress of Western Chu stood up with an astonishing degree, ran to the door with a puff of smoke, and did not care whether she had lost her royal prestige, she personally opened the door and ordered: "Bring a pot of Spring God Lake tribute tea to Lord Shang Shuling." ” It didn't take long for Cao Changqing, who was there, to hold the tea bowl with one hand and fan the tea fragrance with the tea lid with the other.

Cao Changqing closed his eyes and smelled the refreshing fragrance, as if he had completely forgotten the "serious matter".

Cao Changqing didn't need to open his eyes at all, he knew that His Majesty the Emperor was deliberately keeping a straight face, but he pricked up his ears.

The corners of Cao Changqing's mouth curled, and after taking a sip of tea, "Your Majesty, I lied to you."

Weichen just had a fight in Tai'an City, and he didn't hear anything. ” Jiang Xi sighed and pretended not to care.

Looking at the words on the rice paper on the table, he was angry and murderous.

On the dense rice paper, there are actually only three words over and over again.

Cao Changqing suddenly asked: "Your Majesty, I heard that some people are now suggesting three strategies, the upper strategy is that the army of Western Chu should go south with the main force, and Zhao Bing, the king of Yan, and the tiger seek skin, join hands with Liyang to draw the river and govern the middle strategy is to open up the territory to the west, and the next strategy is to fight to the death with Lu Shengxiang's army."

Jiang Xi hummed absentmindedly.

Cao Changqing sneered: "The pedantic scholar's paper talk" Jiang Xi raised her head, looked at Cao Changqing, and asked softly: "Uncle Qizhizhao, when we went to Beimang together, except for the head of the Southern Dynasty lord family who was left behind in the Spring and Autumn Period, the old man who was obsessed with lust at the end was not the current Beimang Eastern Front Coach Wang Sui?"

Cao Changqing nodded.

Jiang Ji hesitated for a long time, and finally asked in a deep voice: "Then did Uncle Qi Zhao also secretly contact Gu Jiantang?"

Cao Changqing was silent, but smiled.

My Majesty the Great Chu Emperor is by no means inferior to Zhao Zhen, the new Emperor of Liyang.

Jiang Xi lowered her head, bit her lip and said, "The ambitious Yan King Zhao Bing is not a good person, but Wang Sui Gu Jiantang and these people are not much better." ” Cao Changqing stood up, walked to the window, and said slowly: "The literati rule the country, so the Great Chu has been prosperous for hundreds of years and has become orthodox in the Central Plains.

But in troubled times, it is so difficult to want scholars to save the country.

I can't figure out this truth, and I, Cao Changqing, am also a scholar, so I can't say this in person Reason.

But no matter what, there is one thing I can do, which is to let the three emperors of Liyang understand that without Xu Xiao, you Zhao family scholars like you can't save the country."

Cao Changqing lowered his voice, "But what I Cao Changqing really want to say to this world is still not this." ” After a long time, Cao Changqing turned around, looked at her, and said with a smile: "In the early years of the Spring and Autumn Turmoil, there were countless demagogic proverbs and ballads circulating in the world, including saying that your mother is also our Queen of Great Chu, so Uncle Zhao knows that you were willing to leave Beiliang at that time, because you were afraid."

Jiang Xi turned her head and said viciously: "No" There was silence in the study.

Jiang Xi suddenly appeared and waited for Uncle Zhao to stand on the side of the table at some point, hurriedly stretched out his hands to cover the stack of rice paper, and said with a red face: "Don't look at it, don't look at it."

Cao Changqing deliberately stretched his neck to find out, and asked curiously: "It doesn't seem like it's a bastard." ” Jiang Xi blurted out: "Of course not, whoever wants to write that he is a bastard, I don't bother to scold" Cao Changqing smiled and didn't speak.

The young empress in a dragon robe insisted on blocking Cao Changqing's sight.

Cao Changqing smiled and asked: "Stab you to death, Uncle Zhao will be alone in the imperial study, Your Majesty, this makes Weichen walk on thin ice." ” Jiang Xi simply bent down and lay on the rice paper on the table, and raised her head, "I read it wrong, I read it wrong, Uncle Zhao, your eyes are not good, don't pick up the lamp to read in the future" Cao Changqing covered the teacup, leaned forward, and rubbed the stupid girl's head with the remaining free hand, "Uncle Zhao is old, not only is his eyes not good, but his memory is not good, now I finally remember that sentence, that person said it when he was in Tai'an City, which roughly means that soon he will personally take Beiliang Tie to Guangling Road and take you back, if you don't agree, then he will rob you and carry you back in a sack."

Leaving Yangxi Chu or something, he Xu Fengnian is too lazy to care. ” She was dumbfounded, just blinking.

Cao Changqing smiled: "I didn't lie to you this time, it's true, it's true." ” She still blinked.

Cao Changqing seemed to mumble to himself, pretending to be a little annoyed, "No matter how I look at it, since I beat him one by one in Tai'an City and Deng Tai'a, and I couldn't win it, then it is clear that it can't be stopped, and I, Uncle Zhao, is not a real immortal, what can I do, there is a saying."

When Jiang Xi smiled, she had two dimples, one for the country and the other for the city.

She subconsciously smiled and replied: "Cucumber salad is delicious" Cao Changqing said softly: "The first emperor is a wise man, but he is not a good husband.

I, Cao Changqing, is even worse, I'm just a stupid person who reads books.

But that young man in Beiliang is better than us.

Your Majesty, when the time comes, you can just give him a sword, but don't really stab him to death, you will regret it and be sad. ” Death seems to be far heavier than sadness, but in fact, sadness is far less relaxed than death.

Jiang Xi was crying.

If you hear the last words of your loved ones.

Cao Changqing gently put down the teacup.

Laid down.

The battle between the two countries, like the previous confrontation between Dachu and Liyang, there was a confrontation between the armies of Xileibi, and now Beiliang and Beimang, there are 300,000 iron cavalry against a million troops.

But one day not long after, the auspicious charm of Liyang was three years, and the divine seal of Xichu was two years.

At that time, Gu Jiantang stood alone in the tent, silent all night, and finally only said to himself: Cao Changqing has misunderstood me for 20 years.

And Wang Sui on the border of Beimang drank alone and laughed: "Relieving qi and relieving qi is the true romance of my generation's infatuation."

On that day, outside the city of Tai'an.

There is Xichu Cao Changqing.

One man besieged the city
