Xinfeng wine fights with ten thousand people, and Xianyang rangers live for many years.
When we meet, we will drink for you. We will tie our horses to the tall buildings and weeping willows.
Yu Linlang was born as an official in the Han Dynasty. He first fought with the Hussar in Yuyang.
Who knew it would be painful to go to the side court? Even if I die, I can still smell the fragrance of the chivalrous bones.
Xinfeng County to the west of Chang'an is said to have been built by Liu Bang in order to alleviate his father Liu Taigong's homesickness. He sent people to recreate Feng County on the Huaishang River east of Chang'an, so it was called Xinfeng County.
Xinfeng County is the east gate into Chang'an. The Hongmen Banquet hosted by Xiang Yu in honor of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was at the foot of Lishan Mountain in the south of the county.
This place is surrounded by mountains and rivers and has fertile land. It is a treasure land in Guanzhong.
The person singing Xinfeng's wine fight for ten thousand is a boy with a face as white as jade, a small crown on his head, and a purple brocade robe. He looks tall, but from the sound of his voice, you can tell that he is still underage.
The young man had a dagger pretending to be on his waist, and in his hand was a short bow that fit his size.
His singing caused a commotion in the grass on the roadside. A rabbit that had just recovered from the cold winter was frightened and ran away in a hurry.
"Xiao Langjun, there is a rabbit!"
Next to him, a tall and sturdy young man who looked about the same age but had already started to grow a beard pointed at the rabbit and shouted loudly.
The young man quickly took out an arrow from Hu Lu, whose waist was almost as long as others. He just drew the bow, but suddenly let it go.
"That's it! That's all! This rabbit can survive such a cold winter, which is considered a blessing. I don't lack these three ounces of meat, so why bother to harm its life."
"The young gentleman is benevolent and righteous, with the air of a grown-up."
The bearded young general stared at the escaping rabbit, twitching his fingers slightly twice. He seemed to want to draw the bow and shoot, but he was still flattering him.
The young man looked at the young general helplessly, "Fifth brother, if you always talk like this, then we really won't be able to talk."
The young general, who was called Fifth Brother by the boy, touched the futou on his head and smiled.
"Okay! Okay! Then I'll call you brother-in-law instead of young man. Since you don't want to shoot the rabbit, let's leave quickly."
Zhun Ge'er is Zhang Zhao's eldest son Zhang Xiancun. His mother Li Ruoliu once named him Li Zhun, so in Liang Dynasty, he is generally called Zhun Ge'er.
The person who flattered him very bluntly was Yang Chonggui, the youngest of the five adopted sons of Zhang Tianwang, who had just turned twelve this year.
In fact, his name is not Yang Chonggui now, but Yang Jiye.
And Yang Chonggui didn't know that his adoptive father, King Zhang Tianwang, didn't let him change his surname to Zhang, but why did he insist on changing his name?
Succession? What career do you want to follow? Father Yang Hongxin, the little Linzhou governor?
Yang Jiye has long been dissatisfied with him now. He is exactly Mu Qiang's age, and he was adopted as an adopted son by Zhang Zhao, so of course he would want to change his surname to Zhang.
Therefore, he has been getting close to Zhang Xiancun, who is one year younger than him, trying to show his face to his adoptive father, Zhang Tianwang, so that he can complete the important matter of changing his surname as soon as possible.
Zhang Xiancun saw that his fifth brother Yang Jiye was distracted again, so he let out a long sigh.
"Okay! Okay! There are indeed two sets of cloth-covered armors sent by my mother. You and I are about the same size, so I'll give you one set."
Yang Jiye was stunned. It seemed that Zhang Xiancun had misunderstood, but he didn't point it out.
Mrs. Shanshan County ordered people to make two sets of cloth-covered iron armor with excellent defense and sent them to the army, for fear that something might happen to Zhang Xiancun.
This kind of precious armor is not something that any warrior on the battlefield dislikes. Although Yang Jiye is not yet old enough to fight on the battlefield, he also likes it very much.
Immediately he realized his mistake and got a set of precious armor from Zhang Xiancun, and happily went ahead to lead the way.
Zhang Xiancun watched Yang Jiye walk away happily, but sighed in his heart.
Zhang Xiancun knew very well what kind of person his father Zhang Zhao was.
Acting within the scope allowed by him, Zhang Zhao is the best father in the world. When Zhang Xiancun was seven or eight years old, he even dared to climb on Zhang Zhao's shoulders to play.
Not to mention the emperor's family, it was unacceptable for ordinary wealthy families, but in Zhang Zhao's case, there was no problem.
But if his behavior exceeds the atmosphere allowed by his father, such as asking his father why he didn't let his sworn brothers all have the surname Zhang, that is something he cannot ask.
In order to have some peace and quiet for a while, Zhang Xiancun had no choice but to use the treasure armor sent by his mother to silence Yang Jiye, the fifth brother.
After crossing Xinfeng County, only a day and a half away, Zhang Xiancun soon discovered a convoy on the Weihe River not far away.
The convoy carried the banner of a messenger, but there were no flags to show where they came from.
Cheng Jielang, a member of the Zuo Yu Lin Guard, led someone to contact Zhang Xiancun when he came back and said for sure: "It is indeed the convoy of She He Ning, the right servant of the Jin Kingdom."
Zhang Xiancun nodded, straightened his robes, and then rode over.
It was Zhang Zhao's arrangement for him to come forward to pick up He Ning and others.
Because with Zhang Zhao's status, he would definitely not go to greet He Ning, but he had to send someone with weight to pick him up.
The most important reason is that He Ning brought Tang Mingzong's concubine Hua Jianshan, who was born in Luoyang, Tang Mingzong's only living son Xu Wang Li Congyi, and Mingzong's sixteenth daughter Yongan Princess, born to Wang Shufei, to Guanzhong.
He Ning left in a hurry and used some force when he took away Concubine Wang Shu, which frightened Concubine Wang Shu and Prince Xu Li Congyi.
Originally, they had their tail between their legs in Xijing Henan Prefecture (Luoyang) and behaved cautiously, for fear of making Shi Chonggui unhappy.
As soon as He Ning arrived, without saying a word, he ordered the soldiers to pick them up and ran away.
Concubine Wang Shu was born with a pretty face, and she knew that in these troubled times, women's beauty was always the source of trouble. She thought that He Ning had a sudden change of temperament, and she didn't know what she wanted to do by kidnapping them. She wanted to commit suicide several times, but gave up because she lacked the courage.
However, if you don’t have the courage to commit suicide, you can still get sick.
Therefore, after running all the way, Concubine Wang Shu, who was said to be ashamed of flowers, was so sick that she could hardly walk. Thirteen-year-old Li Congyi was frightened day by day when he saw his adoptive mother was so frightened, and he was in panic all day long.
He Ning had no choice but to send another knight to notify Zhang Zhao and ask him to send someone to comfort him. Don't scare the mother and son to death before waiting for Chang'an.
"But Aunt Wang, Brother Yi and Sixteenth Mother are here, and my nephew has come to pay his respects."
Murong Nobunaga married Princess Yongle, the fifteenth daughter of Li Siyuan, Emperor Mingzong of the Later Tang Dynasty. When Princess Yongle's mother was alive, she and Concubine Wang Shu were called sisters, so she could be called Concubine Wang Shu's aunt.
So Zhang Xiancun simply followed Murong Nobunaga and called Concubine Wang Shu his aunt.
Hua JianXian was resting in the carriage. The weather had gotten warmer in the past few days, and she felt that she had gradually gained some strength, but the panic had not gone away.
She and Li Congyi lived behind closed doors in Luoyang, for fear of contacting outsiders and making Shi Chonggui unhappy, so they didn't know much about Zhang Zhao at all.
In their opinion, Liangzhou is a land of tigers and wolves!
The king of this land of tigers and wolves is probably also a terrifying strong man full of sheep odor.
Therefore, Hua Jian Sha was extremely afraid of coming to Liangzhou no matter how He Ning explained it.
But then she suddenly heard a very clear child's voice calling her aunt, which made her feel strange.
So he quickly opened the curtain of the carriage and looked outside, and Princess Yong'an, who had just woken up, poked her head out from behind the curtain.
Outside the carriage, a young man with a tall figure and a face like a crown of jade stood tall and tall.
The young man was well-behaved and had a bright smile on his face. Hua Jian was so shy at the sight that he felt the vigilance in his heart and went away instantly.
At this time, two beautiful heads protruded from the window of the carriage.
They all have the same fair complexion and delicate face. The older one has a temperament that I feel pity for, while the younger Dan Ya has a bit of playfulness, as if she is very curious about everything.
Zhang Xiancun, who was one year younger, was a little better, but Yang Jiye, who was already in love, was immediately stunned.
"Who are you? Why do you call Nu Amu your aunt?" Princess Yong'an asked the young man outside the carriage strangely.
'Ahem! Zhang Xiancun pretended to clear his throat and coughed, while stepping on Yang Jiye's instep without leaving any trace.
"Fifth brother, you are engaged. If you watch again, be careful of fourth brother beating you."
The fourth brother mentioned by Zhang Xiancun was Zhe Deyuan, Yang Linggong. Of course, Zhang Zhao could not ruin his marriage, so he made an engagement early with Zhe Taijun, who was still a little girl.
When Yang Jiye heard Zhe Deyuan's name, he quickly returned his soul.
Even though he was Zhe Deyuan's adopted brother and brother-in-law, he didn't get any preferential treatment. Instead, Zhe Deyuan beat him up, so he was welcome.
"This is Zhang Xiancun, the king of Daliang Kingdom in Jinshan during the Western Han Dynasty. He is my father.
Hearing that my aunt and Brother Yi were ill, my father sent his nephew to come with famous doctors from Liangzhou to treat their aunt and Brother Yi. "
"It turns out it's Da Langjun in person, please wait a moment."
Hua Jianxi heard the sign opposite that the little boy was the son of Zhang Zhao, the king of Liang Kingdom, and quickly asked the maid who came to dress her up, and then came out to meet Zhang Xiancun politely.
After a while, the simple tidying up was completed. Concubine Wang Shu and Princess Yong'an were wearing light purple Zhai clothes with large sleeves and long skirts, with a piece of embroidered flower pattern added to the waist.
It looks graceful and elegant, and it also shows the beauty of the female figure just right.
"Where's Fifteen Alang? Didn't he come to pick us up?"
Princess Yong'an asked softly. Princess Yong'an had met her brother-in-law once when her fifteenth sister, Princess Yongle, married Murong Xin.
The little princess was deeply impressed by this heroic and reliable brother-in-law.
You couldn't tell from the carriage, but after getting off the carriage, Zhang Xiancun was surprised to find that Princess Yong'an was about the same height as him, with bright eyes and white teeth, and an indescribable playfulness in her elegant temperament.
In Zhang Xiancun's opinion, Princess Yong'an is even more beautiful than her mother.
Hua Jianshi's biological daughter is certainly not bad in appearance, but the little girl's life is not very good.
Historically, Yelu Deguang heard about her beauty and specially summoned Princess Yong'an to Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo. As compensation for not making Zhao Yanshou the emperor, he married the widowed Zhao Yanshou.
After marrying her forty-year-old brother-in-law at the age of fifteen, less than a year after the marriage, Zhao Yanshou was soon imprisoned and killed by the successor Liao Shizong Yelu Ruan, and Princess Yong'an was missing.
Zhang Xiancun averted his gaze for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, he realized who the fifteenth Alang Princess Yongan was talking about.
He smiled faintly and said to Princess Yong'an: "Brother Nobunaga is still in front of the army and cannot come, but he asked someone to bring a small gift to the princess."
As he spoke, Zhang Xiancun handed over the small purse in his hand. Princess Yongan took it and opened it. It turned out to be a pearl with a soft light.
She groaned and took out a purse from her waist. There was also a pearl of the same size, color and shape inside.
The pearl in the purse on her waist was given to her by her sister Princess Yongle when she attended the wedding.
At that time, there were two pearls of exactly the same size. Princess Yongle gave her one and said that she would give her the second one when she left the palace.
Princess Yong'an had been coveting it for a long time, and now she recognized it at a glance. This pearl was the one Princess Yongle said she would give to her when she leaves the palace.
"Mother, I just said that Sister Fourteen knew that we were living hard in Luoyang and asked the King of Heaven to send someone to take us to Liangzhou to live a better life. You still don't believe it, so believe it now!"
Princess Yong'an wrinkled her little nose and immediately became smiling.
Hua Jiansha felt much more at ease when she saw Zhang Xiancun was polite and had a face as beautiful as a crown jewel. When she heard what Princess Yong'an said again, a rare smile broke out on her face, and most of the heavy burden in her heart suddenly dissipated.
And this is the reason why Zhang Zhao sent Zhang Xiancun. Wang Shufei and others, especially Xu Wang Li Congyi, he still has great use, but they can't scare them.
At this moment, He Ning came over with Li Congyi, and Zhang Xiancun immediately put on another look. After giving a salute to Concubine Wang Shu, he walked towards her in three steps and two steps at a time.
"My dear Zhang Xiancun, I would like to pay my respects to He Weng. He has worked hard all the way. The King of Heaven and Fan Shilang are already at Baqiao, holding a banquet to wait for He Weng." As he said this, Zhang Xiancun actually wanted to bow down.
This frightened He Ning, who immediately rushed over and helped Zhang Xiancun up before Zhang Xiancun could reach the ground.
"The king of heaven actually sent your husband here. How can a man in a hurry bear the responsibility?"
Zhang Xiancun took the opportunity to hold He Ning's hand, then let go and took a few steps back, and once again performed a bowing ceremony that He Ning could accept.
"He left his family and career, risked his life and came from Tokyo to save the world. How can he not bear this responsibility?"
"The northern barbarians invaded the country. In the world, only the king of heaven can drive away the barbarians and save the people from the fire and water. What He did is not worth mentioning."
He Ning helped Zhang Xiancun up with satisfaction. A teenage boy could actually do this.
It seems that Zhang Tianwang often performs such scenes on weekdays. Only by teaching by words and deeds can such effects be achieved.
Although this kind of performance looks a bit fake, it is the most intuitive expression.
Only a king who is willing to demonstrate this thirst for talents and respect talents with his subordinates is really likely to be a king worthy of seeking refuge.
After the two of them had finished greeting each other, Zhang Xiancun stepped forward again.
"This is Brother Yi, right? My seventh generation maternal ancestor was the emperor of the Great Dynasty, so I have the same ancestry as my brother."
After saying that, Zhang Xiancun took Li Congyi's arm again, looking extremely affectionate.
Li Congyi stood behind He Ning with some fear, but after hearing what Zhang Xiancun said, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
The two young men of similar age immediately drew closer to each other, and the worry on Li Congyi's face was no longer so obvious.
In just ten minutes, the quality shown by Zhang Xiancun immediately dispelled the fears of Wang Shufei and Li Congyi, and was highly praised by He Ning.
The group immediately speeded up and started heading towards Chang'an.
.
.
The Ba Bridge is located on the Ba River and is one of the eight rivers surrounding Chang'an.
After Zhang Zhao captured Tongguan and guarded Fenglingdu, he ordered Yin Yaozi to gather a large army to repair Tongguan.
Yin Yaozi also ordered Luo Yu'er to lead two thousand elites to capture Hangu Pass east of Tongguan and completely block the passage into Guanzhong.
After doing this, Zhang Zhao led his main force of 30,000 troops back to camp in Baqiao, and Yan Jin led 20,000 troops to camp in Xianyang.
None of them were ready to enter the city, and even Zhang Zhao didn't let his subordinate You Yiqi approach Chang'an because Zhang Zhao was waiting for an opportunity.
According to the situation at this time, since the Liang army was invited by Shi Chonggui, the leader of Jin Dynasty, they should head to Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo without stopping, rather than entering Chang'an the other way around.
At the same time, compared with the tragic situation in Huazhou and Yaozhou, the people of Chang'an suffered the least impact from the natural disasters and man-made disasters that swept most of the Jin Kingdom.
Because An Yanwei, the military envoy of the Jinchang Army who guarded Chang'an, was considered a clean stream among the military envoys of the Later Jin Dynasty.
This person has average abilities, but is not greedy or violent, and is very disciplined in doing things.
When floods and droughts swept through Chang'an, he opened granaries to store grains. When it’s time to crack down on hoarding, crack down on hoarding.
In addition, after the development of Chang'an in recent years, many water conservancy projects in nearby Wugong, Xinfeng, Wannian and other counties have been restored.
Under the governance of An Yanwei, the residents of Chang'an managed to barely escape this disaster.
Therefore, they were not as eager for Zhang Zhao and the Liang army as the ravaged people of Huazhou, Yaozhou, Jingzhou, and Fengxiang Prefecture, but were slightly afraid of them.
You must know that at this time, the quality of the army is hard to describe. Although the Liang Kingdom is much better than other armies, the people are still quite afraid.
Therefore, Zhang Zhao was prepared to wait for an opportunity when the Lord of Chang'an took the initiative to invite him to the city.
This opportunity came when news came that Yelu Deguang had entered Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo.
.
.
In early March, just when Zhang Zhao was invited to lead his army into Guanzhong, Zhang Yanze ruined the Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo.
Yelu Deguang finally led an army of 60,000 to cross the Yellow River and arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo. Shi Chonggui came out dressed in white clothes and gauze hat.
Before surrendering, Shi Chonggui invited Empress Dowager Li to go out to meet Yelu Deguang because he was afraid that he would anger the Khitan grandfather and risk his life.
However, Empress Dowager Li had already given up. She refused Shi Chonggui's request and insisted not to leave the palace.
Shi Chonggui had no choice but to surrender on his own.
When Yelu Deguang met, he first scolded Shi Chonggui for being ungrateful, and then demoted Shi Chonggui and abolished his position as emperor of Jin.
He was demoted to the rank of Lieutenant of the Inspection Commission, Doctor of Guanglu, and granted the title of Marquis of Yiyi. His fiefdom was located in the extremely remote Huanglong Mansion of Bohai State, which was around Changchun City in later generations, and he was ordered to set off immediately.
After escorting Shi Chonggui to the north, Yelu Deguangjiu occupied the Magpie Nest and entered Daning Palace of the Later Jin Dynasty.
However, the journey from Fengqiumen to Daning Palace shocked Yelu Deguang.
The houses were dilapidated, and there were signs of being looted and burned everywhere. The shops along the street were not spared. There were even flames burning in the north and south of the city.
In the most prosperous main streets, not even a rat's food stock was left.
Kaifeng Prefecture in Tokyo has almost become a city without oil and water!
Brother Guang was shocked, where are you playing? I've worked so hard, so I end up with an empty city?
After thinking about it, Yelu Deguang suddenly asked a group of Jin civil servants.
"Where is Sangguo Bridge? When my old friend goes south, he doesn't come out to greet me?"
The civil servants of the Jin Kingdom who followed Shi Chonggui out of the crowd suddenly looked strange.
Because three days before Yelu Deguang's arrival, Zhang Yanze killed Sang Weihan directly in order to search for Sang Weihan's embezzled property. Even they only found out the news earlier today.
Li Song, standing next to Yelu Deguang, was keenly aware of the meaning behind Yelu Deguang's question and the hesitation hidden in Yelu Deguang's eyes.
He immediately seized the opportunity and came out, prostrated himself in front of Yelu Deguang and cried loudly.
"Reporting to the Emperor, Sang Guoqiao has been killed by Zhang Yanze, and all his family property has been robbed by him."
All the civil servants of the Jin State were talented people, and they immediately understood that this opportunity should not be missed. If Zhang Yanze continued to cause trouble, they would all suffer.
So everyone knelt down together and denounced Zhang Yanze's outrageous cruelty.
Feng Dao hit the target with one blow. He shouted that Zhang Yanze had looted Tokyo City and accumulated more than 200,000 yuan worth of wealth.
Yelu Deguang's eyes lit up when he heard that, yo ho! Isn't this good?
Killing Zhang Yanze would not only make the people angry, but also legitimately confiscate Zhang Yanze's looted property.
So he immediately ordered Zhang Yanze to be imprisoned. Later, Yelu Deguang convened Jin civil servants and generals in Mingde Palace to discuss matters, and issued an edict to Sifangjie Town, asking them to come to Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo to pay homage.
.
.
On the edge of Chang'an City, Baqiao, after more than ten days of spreading, the news that the Khitans destroyed the Jin Kingdom, that the Liao Lord entered Kaifeng Mansion in Tokyo, and that Zhang Yanze bloodbathed Tokyo came almost at the same time.
No one can empathize with this kind of thing more than the residents of Chang'an.
The capital was trapped six times and the emperor fled nine times. They felt this pain especially deeply.
Almost instantly, the residents of Chang'an became worried about their fate.
Immediately afterwards, an even more explosive news came. Due to the disaster in the Central Plains and the army's lack of food, the Khitan Lord Yelu Deguang planned to order Guanzhong, Shannan and Huainan to transfer 300,000 shi of grain and rice each to supplement the military.
This is actually a pure rumor, but the people of Chang'an don't know it, and no one dares to guarantee that Yelu Deguang will not do this in the future.
What's more, in their eyes, the Khitan people have to do this to be considered normal. How can a robber enter a house and not rob it?
Three hundred thousand stones!
Guanzhong had just been hit by a disaster. If we really had to transport 300,000 shi, at least 30% of the people would have to starve to death.
So the frightened people of Chang'an finally lost their reserve. They rushed outside the city and demanded justice from King Liang.
But Zhang Zhao avoided seeing him and was blocked by Guo Tiance and Fan Zhi. The excuse was the same.
That is, the Liang army originally came to ask for help from the Lord of Jin. Now that the Lord of Jin has surrendered, the Liang army can only retreat.
This was no joke. Later, the Liang army actually began to make preparations for withdrawal.
At this time, the whole city of Chang'an was in a panic. Driven by Li Shouling, the elder of the Li Tang clan who had already taken refuge with Zhang Zhao, Guo Zhao, a descendant of Guo Ziyi, and Chang'an merchants, a large number of people spontaneously left the city and went to Liang Kingdom by the Ba Bridge. Crying and begging outside the military camp.
However, the time had not yet come, and Zhang Zhao still did not come forward. The people of Chang'an did not see the legendary King of Liang, but instead they had a profound insight into the military appearance and discipline of the Liang army.
They don't plunder, let alone burn and kill, and they treat people with a kind face. When soldiers go out to the camp to drink and eat meat, they must pay for it, which is an eye-opener for the people of Chang'an.
After Zhang Zhao entered Guanzhong last time, the residents of Qianxian, Xianyang, Wugong and other places spread the news that the Liang army was a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general, but the residents of Chang'an did not believe it.
They think this is because the people in Xianyang, Qianxian and other places are too ignorant, unlike the men in Chang'an who are well-informed and spread rumors.
But this time, after all the Chang'an people saw it for themselves, they were completely convinced, and they all began to spread the word that Liang Jun was a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.
On the third day, another news came that the only heir of the former Emperor Mingzong of the Tang Dynasty, King Xu Li Congyi, had fled from Luoyang, the eastern capital, to Guanzhong, and was resting where King Liang was stationed.
For the banner of the Tang Dynasty, even for the Later Tang Dynasty of Li Cunxu and Li Siyuan, the people of Chang'an still have somewhat different feelings.
As soon as Li Congyi arrived, the wealthy officials and gentry spontaneously looked for the eldest son of An Yanwei, who had just finished the funeral of An Yanwei, the military governor of Jinchang, and begged him to take the lead.
The residents of the whole city also gathered a large amount of rice, meat, wine, syrup and other items to reward the army, and selected the most respected ones, preparing to go to Baqiao together to welcome King Liang and King Xu into Chang'an City.
