Chapter 18: Thunder on the ground(1/2)
Chapter 118 Thunder thunder arises on the ground
In the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Day is coming...
However, Luoyang was filled with dark clouds. First, Song Jing, Wang Zhiyan and others were demoted from the court, and then Li Chaoyin and Bi Gou were demoted again.
At this point, all the righteous spirit that Li Xianfu stood up was lost.
Even in the West, the Blood Camp and Guo Yuanzhen and the Tubo people were not at a disadvantage in the snow. A new tactic appeared in this battle, and the sled and javelin were not attracted by people's attention.
Wei continued to mobilize ministers, and was demoted. He felt that her confidants were all in the court, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Feng Jia came to Shangyang Palace.
I have to talk to Li Guer. It doesn’t matter to others. If I don’t comfort my daughter with headaches, the first thing I need is to say is that when I worship you immediately, Li Guer must show up. Then she pointed at herself and said what to do if she murdered the emperor?
Why did Li Xian call the eunuch beside Li Xian in to get the piano when he was poisoned? It was because Li Xian was fine before drinking and cleared of suspicion. Then he called the imperial doctor, and under his own threat, he said that Li Xian died of sudden illness.
The same argument is about this great righteousness.
If it is confirmed that you are poisoning your husband, the world will be in chaos immediately.
If Li Guer shouted during the memorial service, the situation was not good.
Moreover, this daughter is very "unfilial" and is likely to do so.
When they arrived at Guanfeng Hall, Wei got off the phoenix chariot and found Li Guer.
Li Guer is copying the Diamond Sutra of Taishan Jingshiyu in cinnabar. This original work is not a manuscript, but a cliff carving, engraved with more than twenty lines of the Diamond Prajna Paramita Sutra, with a diameter of about fifty centimeters. The large character is originally located on the bed of Huagang Creek in Shiyu in Taishan Jingshiyu. It comes from Northern Qi. I don’t know who wrote it.
When Wang Hua passed by this place when he was young, he copied it by hand, and called it: although it was divided into regular script, mostly with seal script, clever hiding, consistent strokes, proper twists, and simple shapes. The seal script has profound meaning, not tilted but not scattered, bent but not soft, implicit waves, and different stretches. It is also called unified character formation, harmonious and harmonious, comparable to Wang Ou Yu Chu.
It is compared with the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi, son, Ouyang Xun, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang.
Although it is a little exaggerated, the calligraphy of this stele is vigorous, exquisite and ancient, sharp and sparse, and the most wonderful thing is clumsy but not rigid. The dots and strokes are interesting, and they appear and disappear from time to time, and there is also a kind of generous and graceful attitude. No one noticed it at the beginning, but it was not until a long time later that the excavation of the ancient stele shocked the world. Bao Shichen, Kang Youwei and others praised it and called it a peerless fine product in Northern Wei calligraphy.
However, because of the appearance of Wang's paintings, this stone carving was nearly a thousand years ahead of schedule and attracted the attention of the world. Wang Ou, Yu and Chu, the five great masters, had no chance to see them at first. Even if they saw them, they were just copyings from others. However, this stone carving was carved on granite, and no big family dared to take advantage of the world and dig it back together with the mountain wall.
So many Shandong disciples went to visit, one to see the wonders of Mount Tai, and the other to see the stone carving.
The characters written by Wang Hua were the ones who collected the most were Li Chiying, which was written by him in the early days, and the characters written by him in the later days were Li Guer. Li Guer was very sad when he lost his father, so he took out the Diamond Sutra to copy it. She decided to copy the cinnabar a hundred times to save the dead for her father.
But for Wang Hua, copying this handwriting is not difficult, and it is not suitable for Li Guer.
When Li Guer was learning regular script, Wang Hua pointed out that the most suitable thing for her was to learn Chu style, because Chu style is plump, fluent, charming and colorful, which is suitable for Li Guer's character and brushwork. At that time, she was learning Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. After listening to Wang Hua's suggestions, she changed to learn Chu style, and indeed her calligraphy has made great progress.
Someone else secretly reported to Wu Zetian, but Wu Zetian just said lightly: "The right words are not right for others. Is Chu Suiliang's handwriting not as good as you?"
The man ran away in disgrace.
Now Li Guer's words are gradually becoming stereotyped, imitating the Diamond Sutra, which is more beautiful and charming, and has also changed and interesting, but they are simple and exquisite, and they cannot be seen at all.
Wei stood behind her, looking at her difficulty writing, and couldn't help saying, "This word is not suitable for you to write."
Li Guer turned around and saw that it was her mother who came, and her face turned cold. Although Shangguan Xiaowan took a huge risk and sent Jiang Caier to notify her, she was sad but not angry, and sad but not resentful, she still couldn't help but point to the red letters on the paper and said, "My mother, this is my son-in-law who forgives you for your sins."
Wei was furious when he heard this, but when he saw the blood-red handwriting on the paper, he thought of the blood spitting out of Li Xian's mouth that day, and she couldn't help but tremble.
In fact, during this period, she often had nightmares.
He did not do anything bad, and he was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. If he killed others, it didn't matter, it was mainly Li Xian. When Li Xian was alive, Wei thought that Li Xian had lost to him, so he actually found a reason to make him the courage and courage to kill Li Xian. But after his death, he also thought of Li Xian's benefits and felt that he was indebted.
Even though she ignored the public opinion outside, she summoned Wu Yanxiu to the palace every night to sleep with her. This had nothing to do with her physical needs, but mainly to boost her courage at night.
But she was a person with an abnormal mind and quickly calmed down and said, "Guo'er, Gu just wanted to say one thing. This is just a coincidence. Every emperor did not live long like your eldest mother. Taizong only lived fifty years old. Gaozong was in his early sixties. Looking at dozens of emperors of the Han Dynasty, some died of illness in their prime. If you follow your reasoning, wouldn't it be all murdered by humans? Even if the emperor of the Han Dynasty was murdered by humans, who dared to murder Emperor Taizong?"
Li Guer did not answer, but she was in a very upset mood.
Therefore, when writing the word "wa", I didn't pay attention.
The word "Water" on the copybook is still exquisite,... The water is slanted and slanted, and the word "Skin" is connected vertically, but it becomes a straight hook and a stroke, which means to imitate running script without any sharpness. This change makes the word "Water" interesting.
However, Li Guer returned to the previous writing style, adding one and another word, which was neat and charming, but it no longer had the meaning of ancient and cleverness.
Wei continued, "Gou asked you again, even if Gu wanted to murder the emperor, even if he was the husband of the Wei family, Gu would not disclose half of the portion of such a secret matter. Who said this to you after chewing the root of his tongue?"
This was also another target for her. At that time, Li Xian was alive, and she didn't know who revealed the news to Li Guer. But she didn't dare to take a closer look, so she hurriedly executed dozens of eunuchs and palace maids who served by Li Guer. Then she locked up Li Guer, turning big things into small things and small things into small things, and not attracting Li Xian's attention.
But now the dust has been settled, if possible, it is better to find out.
With those eunuchs and palace maids, they did not have this vision and guessed that they might take action.
She now has two suspicious objects in her mind. The first is budgeted by Li Dan and his son and Princess Taiping, so she used Li Buer's mouth to remind Li Xian. They all have this opportunity, but Wei still can't understand it. In fact, Li Xian's death is also good for them. If Li Xian doesn't die, they will not have the opportunity to seize the world.
But it’s hard to say, maybe they are not ready yet, so I hope they don’t take action for the time being.
If this is the reason, she doesn't have to worry, because it's just speculation and no evidence.
The second person who was suspected was the two people who were poisoned by her, Ma Qinke and Yang Jun. They prepared poison for themselves, and might think of killing people to silence them. In order to prevent them, they quietly left some evidence.
If this may be true, you should be careful.
After saying that, she looked at Li Guer's face carefully.
But she didn't see anything strange. Wei regretted it. If she had known this, she would have left a few living words to see who had been in contact with Li Guer during that period.
There was no choice but to use her final killer move.
Wei said again: "Guo'er, Gu sent an imperial envoy to Lingzhou a few days ago to announce an edict to Wang Hua, and granted him the position of General Sui's General and the Guanglu Dafu."
This sentence finally attracted Li Guer's attention. She looked at her mother in surprise. As a princess, she knew the level of these two positions. In the past, she had many disputes with her parents for the sake of Wang Hua.
However, the result did not make her happy. In fact, she also knew that this was just her ideal. Wang Hua was too young, and this age became a constraint for Wang Hua.
I didn't expect that my mother would have such courage.
But then she understood that her mother's intention was to exchange for Wang Hua's support.
Therefore, Li Guer's eyebrows were slightly frowned and just snorted coldly.
Wei didn't care, but gradually disgusted her heart began to gain the upper hand than like. But she was extremely cunning and had no trace of her face. She continued, "There is another task, which is to settle your marriage."
Li Guer showed sarcasm on her face, but she still didn't say anything.
Wei was even more disgusted.
She said meaningfully: "The Wu family has repeatedly asked Gu to marry you to Wu Yanxiu. You are a pair of talented men and beautiful women. Gu cannot think clearly in his heart. The descendant of the famous Wu family and the family of the empress dowager's relatives. There are many children. If you are supported by the Wu family, Gu will undoubtedly increase his strength to protect national security. But if you marry you to Wu Yanxiu, you don't know what you feel. Or marry Wang Hua, but Wang Hua is unstable to Gu. Gu is in a difficult situation."
After saying that, he left.
I didn't say it clearly, but this sentence undoubtedly told Li Guer that if you listen to me, you and Wang Hua still have room for negotiation. If you don't listen to me, I will marry you to Wu Yanxiu, so that you will never be able to stay together.
Seeing the influence of her departure, Li Guer angrily tore the paper on the table to pieces.
But Wei was not happy for long. As soon as he left Shangyang Palace, he received an urgent report.
Seeing the urgent report, Wei was so shocked that he didn't even know that the report fell to the ground.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The coldest place in the Twenty-Three Prefectures is the Jishishan area. It is a little better when you really want to go to the south of the Jiaoheshan Mountain. Either Fengzhou is also very cold and the newly drawn Yinshan Prefecture. But other places cannot be as warm as spring. The Yellow River on the west side of Lingzhou is so frozen that it can run horses on it.
Wuzhou is relatively much better. Although it is still cold, it is blocked by the west cemetery mountain, which is blocked by the cold air flow on the plateau and the northwest of Liupan Mountain, which also blocks the rampant cold air in the northwest.
But Wuzhou is now far inferior to Wuzhou during the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms period, and is even worse than the Sui Dynasty. At that time, Wudu County was one of the most important prefectures and counties in the world.
There are two reasons for this. The first is the road from Hanzhong to Chang'an, and the second is that Tubo became stronger and often invaded. From western Sichuan to the Wumin River and Shan area, due to the invasion of the Tubo people, the population began to wither, so Wuzhou began to decline.
The latter reason is the most important.
However, with the recovery of Jishishan, it is equivalent to lifting the direct threat from more than a dozen states such as Dangwu Mindiehe Shankuo. Coupled with Wang Hua's large investment, the old city gradually regained its prosperous appearance.
A large amount of goods came from Bashu, entered the twenty-three states, or entered the prefectures such as Weiqin.
It was during this winter that there were still many vehicles on the road, driving slowly.
But for this reason, Wuzhou is under high alert.
This was caused by terrain. In order to make it difficult for the imperial court to blockade the twenty-three states, Wang Hua deliberately demanded these two poor states. But in this way, within the twenty-three states, from northeast to Yunshuo, from the east to Taiyuan Hedong, from Guanzhong to Chang'an, from Guanzhong to Chang'an, and from the south to the two states, from Hanzhong and Bashu.
The imperial court imagined that it would block the Eight Prefectures as before, and it became a strange tale.
However, the two states of Wudang are like a pointed cone, stabbing in the middle of Mincheng and Fu states, making the defense very difficult.
Moreover, there are many tall mountains and rivers in the territory, with complex terrain and new people's hearts not settled. Therefore, this area has become the top priority in Wang Hua's defense. For safety, not only did Guo Zhiyun come to take charge, but also let Guo Qianguan lead the Tianji army to take charge of Wuzhou, Zhang Shougui's Yuheng army sit in the side of Diezhou, and at the same time, Guo Zhiyun's Henderson Division is also trained in the four states.
Of course, when they were preparing to fight against the Tubo people, they were temporarily summoned, but the war calmed down and the army was sent back immediately.
In other words, in these four narrow and long states, the regular troops reached 20,000, plus more than 10,000 militias.
On this day, as before, the city gates of Wuzhou opened early, and teams of neat troops came out of the city and started training outside the city. Then it was the turn of the people and merchants lined up inside and outside the city to start entering.
As usual, the soldiers guarding the city gate carefully inspected the certificates and goods of the passing merchants and the people.
However, relatively speaking, it is more disciplined than the soldiers of other states in the Central Plains, and there is almost no way to see the blackmail and bribery.
At this moment, a group of six or seven people rushed over, with a pretty little ** in the middle. However, the group was dressed in rags and looked very down.
When they arrived at the city gate, they did not enter the city, but walked out of the middle, came to the soldiers at the city gate, and asked carefully: "May I ask, are you Wang Hua's subordinates?"
The dozen soldiers guarding the city raised their heads together, with a little angry eyes. Wang Hua? Whether it is the chief general or the camp supervisor, you can call them. What qualifications do you have to directly call Wang Hua's name?
If Wang Hua had not issued military orders repeatedly, he would not be able to act as a prestige to the people, and they all wanted to kick this person over to the ground.
But the leader of the school captain had a very flexible mind, and he immediately felt strange. Wuzhou was placed under the jurisdiction of the Blood Camp, and several months have passed. Why did there be such a strange question? He replied: "That's right, who are you?"
"Can we give us a visit to Wang Hua?"
