Of course, because of this royal joy, the emperor also granted amnesty to the whole world!
As a grand event for the canonization of a queen, this is something that every dynasty does solemnly!
The details of this red tape were naturally completed by the Ministry of Rites, Honglu Temple and the palace envoys. Someone has to go and take note of the detailed instructions regarding the royal bloodline and the Queen’s Fu family!
However, apart from this grand event, what gave the common people more to talk about after dinner was that Zhang Yongde, the consort in the imperial court, suddenly became a hotly discussed figure again.
Because the prince-consort, who had been somewhat quiet in recent years, suddenly became popular again, and news about him was everywhere in the streets!
Because after the Battle of Gaoping in the first year of Xiande, the Prince Consort, who had been promoted to the position of inspection in front of the palace after the southern expedition, had been rumored to have different intentions since he returned from the northern expedition to Khitan with the emperor.
It's not a big deal if a few people talk about this kind of thing, but if the whole city of Tokyo talks about it and people add fuel to the fire, it will become a big deal!
Although someone refuted the rumor that day and the emperor did not pursue it, the prince-in-law has made fewer appearances since then, but this is a fact!
It is said that when the troops of the Northern Expedition to Khitan were returning to Kaifeng, someone picked up a straw bag and found a rare piece of jade in the bag. Of course, some people said it was wood. But none of this is important anymore. What is important is that it is engraved on the jade stone: Check to be the emperor! These five ancient seal characters simply destroyed everything.
Although the emperor saw it with his own eyes at the time, he did not publicize it publicly. However, anyone who knows the inside story knows that since then, the emperor has idled Zhang Yongde and relieved him of his actual military power. As for how this matter spread later, it is obviously not difficult to reason, and it will be appropriate for matters related to the emperor.
However, the emperor never caused trouble to his consort Zhang Yongde. That was because he once competed with the emperor Guo Rong for the throne. During the Battle of Gaoping, he had risked his own life and led his soldiers to attack the battlefield several times. This desperate approach made Guo Rong trust him so much that he not only appointed him as the military envoy of the Wuxin Army, but also immediately transferred him to the military envoy of the Yicheng Army after returning to the dynasty.
The prince-consort who has achieved the highest official rank in the imperial court is supposed to have enough glory in this life. However, he regained his enthusiasm in the second year of Xiande and actually volunteered to go to the south to conquer the Tang Dynasty, which naturally made the emperor trust him more.
Ordinarily, he doesn't need to think about this kind of fighting. After all, the Central Plains can be regarded as a cloud of good generals. But because his father, Zhang Ying, was actually killed when he was working as a defense envoy in Anzhou. The murderer fled to the Tang Dynasty. As a filial son, the prince-in-law naturally wanted to avenge his father's murder!
Because his father had a strict character and was forced to marry the daughter of a general under his command, he was later killed by his general Cao Cheng. Cao Cheng and others were afraid of causing trouble, so they fled to the south of Tang Dynasty. Originally this was a very normal thing, but Cao Cheng and others not only managed to escape, but also received excellent treatment.
This made Zhang Yongde unforgettable for the rest of his life. He was still filled with hatred for his father's murder and his enemies. Seeing that the emperor wanted to regain the world, he naturally took the initiative to ask Ying to send troops.
What is exciting is that the Prince Consort Zhang Yongde once again achieved great victory in Shouzhou this year.
Because when Zhang Yongde led his troops to attack Shouchun, Liu Renzhan, the governor of the Huai Army of the Qing Dynasty in the Tang Dynasty, adopted the defensive strategy of defending the city and not taking the offensive. It was difficult for Zhou's troops to conquer for a while, and the battle situation became deadlocked.
Later, Zhang Yongde adopted the strategy of luring the enemy with exhausted troops, and even pretended to be defeated and fled. In the end, they used the fine cavalry that had been prepared long ago as an ambush to lead the Tang army to the ambush place, and finally almost annihilated the Tang soldiers and horses in Shouzhou. The Tang army only used Jiedu to save Liu Renzhan, which made Zhang Yongde famous in the court.
In just one or two years after Emperor Guo Rong ascended the throne, the achievements of Prince Consort Zhang Yongde undoubtedly made the emperor have to have extra faith in him and his loyalty to the court.
In the third year of Xiande's reign, the imperial court once again went on a southern expedition. This time, Emperor Guo Rong led his own expedition. Liu Renzhan had to imprison Cao Cheng and others in a prison car, sent people to the emperor's camp, and presented them to Zhang Yongde in person to ask for peace.
Previously, because Han Lingkun, the chief minister in front of the palace, was in Yangzhou, he was repeatedly attacked by the Tang army and prepared to retreat back to the court. However, Zhang Yongde led his troops to defeat the Tang army on the north bank of the Yangtze River and obtained dozens of warships. In the winter of this year, the emperor decreed that Zhang Yongde should be promoted to the position of inspector in front of the palace.
This position of commanding the pro-army, generals of the left and right guards, generals Fu Baolang, generals Su Zhi, and left and right Zhensu can be said to be a position that can influence the emperor!
Everyone knew that the emperor favored Zhang Yongde. Of course, some people thought it was to kill the consort. However, in the fourth year of Xiande, Zhang Yongde returned to the court after conquering Shouzhou, and was awarded the title of Taiwei by the emperor, taking charge of the world's troops. This rumor seemed to be completely broken. In addition, the emperor also granted Zhang Yongde real power and served as the military governor of Zhenning, which silenced some whispers in the court.
Everything went wrong in the summer of the fifth year of Xian De, because the Khitan invaded the border and actually discovered the rumored jade tablet. Although the emperor didn't seem to care, the fact that the post was mainly used as the commander in front of the palace to exercise real power still caused everyone to talk about it.
This time the emperor finally came up with his decision, because although he still had the title of Imperial Examiner and was given a posthumous title of Tong Zhongshu as a gift, the position of real power was actually won by everyone in front of the palace. Because Zhao Kuangyin was also promoted at the same time, this inconspicuous young Jiedushi was not only promoted to the tutor of the inspection school, but also promoted to the inspection officer in front of the palace, replacing Zhang Yongde's original position.
Compared with Zhang Yongde's lifting of military power, Zhao Kuangyin's promotion was not conspicuous.
Because Zhao Kuangyin, a close confidant of the emperor, was almost the same as Zhang Yongde. He established great military exploits during the southern expedition to the Tang Dynasty. Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, this young general who had defected to Emperor Taizu Guo Wei had already served as the Ma Zhijun envoy of Kaifeng Prefecture when Emperor Guo Rong was the governor of Kaifeng, and became a close confidant of Emperor Guo Rong.
Starting from the third year of Xiande, Zhao Kuangyin gradually emerged. It only took him less than a year to go from being the governor of Yanzhou to commanding envoys in front of the palace. The end of this year was destined to be a turning point in his status, because he was appointed as the governor of Dingying.
In the fourth year of Xiande's reign, he accompanied the emperor on a personal expedition, first to Shouchun, then to Lianzhu Village, and later to Shouzhou. After the army returned to Tokyo, Zhao Kuangyin was worshiped as the military governor of the Yicheng Army and the chief inspector of the school, and he still served as the commander of the capital in front of the palace.
In the fifth year of Xiande's reign, the emperor appointed Zhao Kuangyin as the military envoy of the Zhongwu Army.
It seems that none of this is a big surprise, but it only took him four or five years to be promoted from a young general to the most senior general in the imperial court. Because of this short time, many people did not pay attention to his existence. Because of such a short promotion, where are the connections?
Therefore, many people were not surprised that Zhao Kuangyin was promoted to the position of inspection in front of the palace.
! ! !
The ninth day of June in the sixth year of Xian De, the ninth day of June in the second year of Lingnan and Nanhan Dabao!
Xingwangfu,
Xiandeyuan!
"Your Majesty, I heard that the reign name of the Zhou Kingdom in the Central Plains is called Xian De?" The soft and waxy voice came from the beautiful lady Pan Jinlian. Because her husband-in-law was arrested, she later entered the palace to serve the emperor, but she did not have the scruples of her sister Fang, Pan Yulian.
Liu Jixing lay on an ancient rattan rocking chair, enjoying the feeding fruits from the stamens, and vowed to develop this form of sex to the extreme. (To be continued...)
