Chapter 434: The Beginning of the Tang Dynasty's Chaos (II)


The trees fell and scattered, and his subordinate Wang Na saw that Xu Jingye's escape road was blocked, and in order to survive, he killed the two Xu brothers and surrendered.Xu Jingye and Xu Jingyou's heads were handed over by Wang Na as a gift for surrender, Wei Siwen and Tang Zhiqi were also arrested, Luo Bin Wang did not know his whereabouts, and Yangzhou, Runzhou and Chuzhou, which were occupied by the rebels, also returned to the control of the official army.At this point, Xu Jingye's rebellion was completely defeated.The Yangzhou uprising was only forty days from the announcement of the rebellion to the pacification, although it was easy for Wu Xu to quell such a rebellion, but the rebellion still aroused the unhappiness that had existed in her heart for a long time.At that time, Li Xiaojiu wavered in the matter of the post-establishment, at this time, Xu Jingye's grandfather Li Ji's words made Li Xiaojiu have the determination to establish Wu Xu as the queen, for this, Wu Xu was grateful, but what made Wu Xu resentful was that Li Ji in the future helped Li Xiaojiu pull Li Yifu off the stage, you know, Li Yifu at that time was the beloved minister in front of Queen Wu.The Xu family was given the surname Li for their merits, but they dared to start a rebellion when Wu Xu was in charge of the dynasty, which made Wu Xu, who was already angry, angry.This time, she no longer put up with it, and everyone who opposed her would die.Wu Xu believed that until the Yangzhou uprising, the Xu family's disrespect for the Tang Dynasty had surpassed the credit of the past, and she did not hesitate to order the Xu family to be copied and the surname Li was withdrawn.Not only that, but he also ordered Li Ji's grave to be dug up and his official title removed.Xu Jingye's behavior not only failed, but affected the family and caused the Xu family to suffer a catastrophe.This also created a good opportunity for Wu Xu to warn the world.After Wu Xu put down Xu Jingye's rebellion, she took power alone, while her son Li Xian reused Empress Wei's relatives and tried to form his own group.Li Xian promoted Empress Wei's father Wei Xuanzhen from Puzhou to Yuzhou Assassin, and wanted to be promoted to Shizhong (Prime Minister), Prime Minister, Wu Xu's absolute confidant Pei Yan immediately said no.Li Xian was furious and said: "I give Wei Xuanzhen the world, it's okay, do you still regret a servant?"

”After hearing this, Pei Yan reported to Wu Xu, who was greatly annoyed by Zhongzong's actions.Then Li Xian, who succeeded to the throne of the emperor, was deposed by Wu Xu as the king of Luling and demoted from Chang'an.Afterwards, Li Xian's younger brother Li Dan became a puppet emperor........ after deposing Li Xian, Wu Xu became the de facto empress, and wantonly added officials to the Wu family, which made the Li royal family suspect that Wu Xu wanted to replace Li Tang and slaughter the Li royal family.These Li royal families mainly include Li Zhen, the king of Yue, Li Yuanjia, the king of Han, Li Yuanliang, the king of Huo, Li Lingkui, the king of Lu (all of the above are the sons of Li Yuan and Li Zhen's uncle), Li Yuanjia's son Huang Guogong Li Shu, Li Yuanliang's son Li Xu, the king of Jiangdu, Li Xu, the son of Li Lingkui, the king of Fanyang, Li Ai, the son of Li Feng, the son of Li Feng, the prince of Dongguan County, and Li Chong, the son of Li Zhen, the king of Langya.They plotted together to rebel against Wu Xu.After Wu Xu completed the construction of the Ming Hall, he summoned the clan to gather in Luoyang, the eastern capital, and held a ceremony to worship the gods in Luoshui.Li Zhen and the other kings were afraid that Wu Xu would kill them, so they began to take active action.First of all, Huang Guogong Li wrote an edict to Li Chong from Li Dan, saying: "I am imprisoned, and all the kings should send their own troops to save me." ”Li Chong also forged the emperor's letter sealed with a seal, saying: "The Divine Emperor intends to hand over the Li family's country to the Wu family. ”However, before the kings agreed on the time to raise troops together, Li Chong summoned the chief Shi Xiao Decong and others, ordered them to recruit soldiers, and at the same time informed the kings of Han, Huo, Lu, and Yue, as well as Li Shen, the king of Beizhou, and asked them to raise their own troops and march towards the Shendu together.When Wu Xu learned about it, he appointed Zuo Jinwu general Qiu Shenqian as the general manager of the Qingping Road march to crusade against them.But only Li Zhen raised his army, and the other kings were not fully prepared and hesitated.Li Zhen informed his aunt Princess Changle and his uncle Zhao Gui, the assassin of Shouzhou, and Princess Changle expressed her support for Li Zhen.However, Li Zhen only has his subordinate Pei Shoude and him as one, because he has already married his daughter Liangxiang County Lord to Pei Shoude and treats him as a confidant.Li Zhen soon took possession of Shangcai, and Wu Xu appointed Zuobao Taowei general Ko Chongyu as the general of the Chinese army, Cen Changqian as the general of the rear army, led 100,000 troops to crusade against him, and ordered Zhang Guangfu to be the commander of the army.Wu Xu removed the names of Li Zhen and Li Chong in the royal family roster and changed his surname to Yu.When Li Zhen heard that Li Chong had failed, he wanted to tie himself up and go to the palace to plead guilty, but when Fu Yanqing, the commander of Xincai County, whom he appointed, recruited more than 2,000 warriors, Li Zhen announced to everyone: "King Langya has conquered Wei and other states, and has 200,000 soldiers, and will soon arrive here." ”He also requisitioned a total of 5,000 soldiers from various counties under Yuzhou, divided into five battalions, and assigned Pei Shoude and others from Runan County to lead them, and appointed more than 500 officials above the ninth grade.The officials he appointed were all coerced and had no fighting spirit, and only Pei Shoude, his son-in-law, followed him.Li Zhen asked Taoist priests and monks to chant sutras to pray for the success of the matter, and the people and soldiers around him wore runes to avoid damage from weapons, how could such a rabble succeed?

When the official army sent by Wu Xu to suppress arrived, Li Zhen sent his youngest sons Li Gui and Pei Shoude to meet them, but they were defeated and returned.Li Zhen was shocked and closed the door.When Koji Chongyu and the others arrived at the city, the people around him said to Li Zhen: "King, can you sit and wait to be killed and insulted?"

”So Li Zhen returned to the official residence and prepared to commit suicide by taking poison.At this moment, a subordinate of Li Zhen's Mansion suddenly said, "Lord Wang, it's a matter of your death, but the little prince and the little county lord are still young......

If you can trust your subordinates, your subordinates can take them to escape from the Tang Dynasty, and he will not have no chance of revenge in the future......"

Li Zhen, who was about to commit suicide by taking poison, was stunned, and then he glanced deeply at this inconspicuous subordinate, "Yuande, anyway, Lone is also a person who is going to die, you tell Lone, who are you working for?"

Could it be that you're from over there?

”Li Zhen pointed his hand in the direction of Broken Leaf, and then asked, Since Li Xiaojiu ascended the throne, the relationship between Chang'an and Broken Leaf took a sharp turn for the worse, and in the end, even the Tang Dynasty royal family like Li Zhen did not dare to mention Li Lu's name, and replaced it with that person, over there.This subordinate named Yuande thought for a while, and then nodded, "The prince's eyesight is good, I am indeed a person over there, the reason why I sneaked into the prince's mansion is because many years ago, my majesty once said that if the Tang Dynasty shows the image of the heroine, the prince will definitely raise troops......

That's why I buried this secret chess ....... of my subordinates" Hearing that Li Lu had expected this scene many years ago, Li Zhen was still taken aback, "The fifth brother-in-law is amazing, and he really deserves to be a fairy child......

Even if Yuande has a way to take Zhen'er and Susu (Li Zhen's fifth daughter Yuyao County Lord) out of the Tang Dynasty, Lone can also smile at Jiuquan......."

Yuande bowed to Li Zhen after hearing this, and then said goodbye to Li Zhen, took away Li Zhen's youngest son Li Zhen and the fifth daughter Yuyao County Lord Li Su, after they left, Li Zhen committed suicide by poisoning, Li Gui killed his mother, and then hanged himself; The county lord of Liangxiang and Pei Shoude also hanged himself.Wu Xu was very angry when he learned that he had suppressed the rebellion launched by Li Zhen and ordered the nine clans of Li Zhen to be exterminated, but when he was arrested, the government found that Li Zhen's third son Li Wen and his youngest son Li Zhen and the fifth daughter of Yuyao County Lord Li Su were missing, and when they spread the news to Luoyang, the smart Wu Xu immediately knew where these people and Luo Bin Wang, who had mysteriously disappeared before, had gone."

Hey, just run away..... you went to the broken leaves, and the mourning family still can't wait......

Wu Xu finally sighed.
