In the fourth year of the Shaoming Dynasty in the Great Zhou Dynasty, 949 AD, it was the eighth day of the eleventh month, a very auspicious day.
Zhang Gao led 20,000 horse and infantry troops, crossed the Yangtze River under the cover of Wu Yue Navy, and then arrived at Jiangning City.
The new King of Wu, Li Jing, led all the civil and military officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty out of Jiangning City ten miles away to greet him.
Li Jing finally accepted the donation at the last moment and did not lead tens of thousands of naval troops to Hongzhou. He avoided becoming a prisoner who surrendered at the enemy's gate, and also saved Zhang Yan a lot of trouble.
Therefore, Zhang Gao did not ask him to arrange any kind of grazing of sheep or anything like that. He just followed the normal ceremony of a vassal king welcoming the monarch.
Later, the standards of the original Southern Tang Ancestral Temple were reduced, the Sheji Temple was destroyed, Jiangning Ziwei Palace was renamed Jiankang Palace, Li Jing was moved to another courtyard, and she moved into Jiankang Palace.
On November 17, Zhang's aunt, Empress Dowager Ciyou, Li Shi, and biological mother, Empress Dowager Cisheng, Song Shi, who had been on the road for a long time, also arrived in Jiangning City.
They had heard about the good scenery in Jiangnan and the reputation of the Four Hundred and Eighty Temples in the Southern Dynasties early in the morning, so they came to visit.
Of course, there are still political tasks involved. Without Zhang Yan's tacit approval and Empress Dowager Ciyou's instigation, the Song family would not have taken the initiative to correspond with Li Jing's wife Zhong.
The letter that Zhong received was actually sent to Zhang Yan first and then to Zhong.
As soon as the two queen mothers arrived, Li Jing and his wife felt even more relieved. Empress Dowager Ciyou recognized Li Jing as her nephew, Empress Dowager Cisheng recognized Zhong as her adopted daughter, and Zhang Jing also called Li Jing her younger brother. On the surface, they were all harmonious.
It’s just that I, Zhang Shengren, have always had a tradition of fighting against my elder brother.
Before he entered Liangzhou, he kept saying that he wanted to recognize Li Wenqian, the queen who stayed in Liangzhou, as his brother. In the end, he sent Guo Tiance to frighten the unstable queen Li Wenqian and committed suicide.
He and Yelu Deguang were brothers, but in the end they became emperors.
I don’t know if these two younger brothers can hold on.
After arranging things for Li Jing's family, Zhang Zhang specially summoned the famous poet Li Houzhu, who is now called Li Congjia, out of the interest of paying homage to celebrities.
As soon as they met, Zhang Yan felt that he was worthy of being an eternal celebrity, and Li Congjia's appearance was really unparalleled.
Although he is only twelve years old, he has a tall figure, eyes like a pool of autumn water, and his walking and sitting postures are very regular, showing good self-cultivation. He is also very smart, has a high emotional intelligence, and responds well, except for being a little shy.
Zhang Shengren was very satisfied. In addition, he also knew this famous poet in history. He was a great poet of his generation. He was at least in the top fifteen when it comes to poetry and lyrics alone. He would definitely be in the top five when it comes to poetry alone.
And the life span is not bad. Historically, if he had not been poisoned by Zhao Er, he would probably be guaranteed to live to be sixty years old casually. Such a person is considered a good match for a son-in-law.
However, Zhang Hao was a little confused. He had also met Li Jing, and he could only say that he looked okay, but Li Yu and Li Hongji both had sharp eyebrows and handsome eyes.
Especially Li Yu, he doesn't look like Wu Qilong. He is 70-80% similar to Zun Long when he was young. He is just a little thinner, but he is only twelve years old. He can already make people think he is very handsome, not too evil.
At least for now, it seems that in the future, he will be a super handsome guy who can be compared with Murong Nobunaga, Pan Mei, and Han Kuangmei (uncle of the handsome Handejang).
Then, Zhang Zhang touched his chin. His father was average, but his two sons were handsome men. It was most likely that he had inherited his mother's beauty.
Could it be that Li Yu's mother, Mrs. Zhong, is a stunning wife who captivates the whole country? Bah! beauty?
This is too much for my liking, Zhang Shengren.
Thinking of this, Zhang Hao couldn't help but feel a burning sensation all over his body, and his heart was itching unbearably. He walked around the house countless times, constantly persuading himself.
'Either or not, you are not Cao Mengde. You cannot be such a good wife. Even if you are a good wife, Cao Mengde's painful lessons in Wancheng are still vivid in my mind.
If Li Cunhui, Dunzhu, etc. are really defeated because of this matter, then he will not be like Cao Mengde and be laughed at for a thousand or two thousand years! '
It should be said that emperors of all dynasties are inseparable from a confidant eunuch. Once Dong Shaojian saw Zhang Yan like this, he knew what Zhang Yan was thinking without Zhang Yan saying a word.
This is not obvious. After summoning these two handsome young men, Li Hongji and Li Congjia, I, Zhang Shengren, felt restless, as if I was in heat. The saint is not a manly woman, so I can only think of something.
But if Dong Shaojian had chosen Li Jing's wife Zhong as his target at this moment, then he would not be so liked by Zhang Yan, and his style would be lower.
Dong Shaojian knows very well what path Zhang Shengren is taking. If Li Jing goes to see the King of Hell, Dong Shaojian will definitely send Zhong to Zhang Shengren quietly.
But now that Li Jing is still alive, and can barely be regarded as a meritorious official, if he does this, wouldn't it destroy the image of Zhang Shengren, and what will the world think?
Eunuch, what happened to the eunuch? That also requires political consciousness and following the king's footsteps at all times.
"Sage, I heard that the Zhou Zong who stayed in the former Eastern Capital had a daughter named Zhou Xian, nicknamed Ehuang. She was beautiful and fragrant before her hair was born. I went to see it yesterday. It is true. That Zhou Zong was frightened by the athletes of our army. I'm sick and live not far from Jiankang Palace."
Jooheon? Very strange! Zhou Ehuang was a little familiar.
Zhang Hao thought for a moment, hey! If nothing else, she might be the Great Zhou Queen in history. It is said that the Great Zhou Queen is one year older than Li Yu and should be thirteen years old this year.
Zhang Hao was a little moved, but he snorted coldly on his face and looked like he didn't believe it, "I'm a big talker like you, but how can a twelve-year-old girl know how beautiful the country is?"
Seeing Zhang Yan like this, Shaojian Dong knew there was something going on. Knowing Zhang Shengren's temper, he knew that Emperor Shao Tian always pretended to be inconsistent on this kind of issue. What he said today was actually something he really wanted to see. .
"Everyone, sit down for a moment. The servants will come as soon as they leave."
Dong Shaojian saluted and hurried away. It must be the filial piety of the Duke of Wei. Before entering the city, he found out that Zhou Zong had a daughter who was beautiful and beautiful. As soon as he entered the city, he sent troops to guard him. He would mention it after a while. .
. . . .
"Fuck!" A quarter of an hour later, I, Zhang Shengren, looked at the little girl in a green jacket and skirt and blurted out "Green Woman".
This is too similar! Zhang Hao looked left and right, up and down, until the little girl went from shy to a bit frightened, then he smacked his lips and stepped back.
Otherwise, this girl is at least 90% similar to the green lady in Dancing Goddess, and can even be said to be almost exactly the same.
No wonder she is said to be so beautiful at the age of thirteen. Anyway, I don’t know if she would be this beautiful if she grew older, but she is indeed very beautiful now.
This is not like a certain former female star named Fan, the kind that makes people feel flirtatious at the first sight and makes them want to fall on the bed.
Rather, it is a kind of quirky naughtiness with an indescribable beauty, just like the pure and naughty Seven Fairies falling into the world.
BIS for copper smelting, BIS for copper smelting.
After Zhang Shengren recited it several times in his mind, he tried hard to put away his bad look. It would be so delicious to raise such a little girl for another three or more years.
"E Huang, would you like to come to me? I need someone who is literate and attentive to deal with documents every day."
Emperor Zhou E's round eyes blinked, and two red clouds flew onto her cheeks again. Could it be that she didn't know what she was going to do when she entered the palace? When she came, the whole family watched her leave with expectant eyes.
Even if she doesn't want to, but who are you kidding, she is facing the supreme being in the world. When she reaches Zhang Yan's position, no matter what he wants, there are too few who dare to say no.
Naturally, a little girl like Zhou Ehuang did not dare to resist. She could only flash her watery eyes and say softly: "Of course I am willing, but I ask the saint to give it a few days. When Aye's illness gets better, I will come immediately." Come."
"It's natural, filial piety comes first!" Zhang Yan nodded with satisfaction. If this little girl wanted to stick to her even though her father was seriously ill, he would be a little scared.
"Dong Zhen, please invite famous doctors to treat Ehuang's father. If there are any medicinal materials from the palace, feel free to use them.
Emperor E was given fifty pieces of Sichuan brocade and a set of eight-jeweled jewelry, and asked his bodyguards in brocade robes to dispatch a team of strong men to guard it. "Zhang Gao waved his hand, such good cabbage should be watched carefully.
On the 21st of November and 21st, after finding the queen of Zhou Dynasty, Zhang Xian was in a good mood. He summoned the little girl to the palace to talk with her. His affection was beyond words.
And during these few days when he was in a good mood, Ma Zhaoyuan left Du (Lun) to guard Jiangzhou with all his heart, while he led an army of 40,000 people down the river and arrived at Jiangning City.
Along with him were the former Southern Tang envoys of the Wuchang Army in Ezhou, the Jiedushi of the Baoxin Army in Luzhou, the Jiedushi of the Fenghua Army in Jiangzhou, the Jiedushi of the Xuanhua Army in Hongzhou, and the Jiedushi of the Anhua Army in Raozhou. There are six major military envoys, including the envoy of Xuanzhou Ningguo Army.
At this time, Zhang Gao also understood that when the military governors of Fuzhou Zhaowu Army, Qianzhou Baisheng Army Military Envoys, and Jianzhou Yongan Army Military Envoys had not arrived, just these six military governors could gather together. There are more than 40,000 people who can ride on foot, water and land.
In the entire Southern Tang Dynasty, except for Jiangning Mansion and Jiangdu Mansion, there were still 70,000 to 80,000 troops.
Although it is unlikely that they will come together and their combat effectiveness is not high, it is still quite troublesome to have a leader and start a bad war.
Now thanks to Li Jing's knowledge, the next step is to rectify the Southern Tang and Wu Yue countries. Otherwise, it is impossible to drive the backbone local tycoons of these two countries by changing the form of Jiedushi.
