Chapter 26 Taking refuge
On November 2, the first year of Ganning, Changchun Palace in Tongzhou.
Shao Shude was a little embarrassed. Princess Zhe Fangai actually came and sat with Chen with a clever smile.
Chen has a calm personality, but he still said a lot in front of the princess.
She is now the concubine of King Xia. After the saint was rewarded, Shao Shude almost immediately accepted him as the seventh concubine, and he was also his tenth concubine. Well, the quota has not been used up yet, and there are three more places.
Chen's foreign wife's title was still the wife of Wei, and it was considered high among all the concubines, because most of them were only the title of the wife of the county.
Not to mention that Chen had four palace maids who were rewarded with him to serve him. This show is worthy of being the concubine of the saint, and Pei Zhen is not even as good as that.
After seeing Shao Shude come in, the two of them stood up and saluted.
"I was surprised to receive the news that my beloved concubine came over. Everything is fine in Anyi?" The personal soldiers stepped forward to help him remove his armor. Shao Shude found Zhang Hu's bed and sat down and asked.
"It's safe and sound." Zhe Fang'ai said. After saying that, he glanced at Shao Shude, his eyes quite harsh.
Shao Shude didn't dare to look at his wife and beat him up.
Chen also glanced at Shao Shude, and the handsome man glared at her again. Chen's lips grinned and smiled.
"The king goes to Nanyang..." Zhe Fangai was a little hesitant when he said this.
In fact, she is a very smart woman and knows that her husband's purpose of going south is not simple.
Needless to say, the surname of Weishengjun in Tangzhou is Shao or Zhe. Now that he wants to attack Zhu Quanzhong, it will not be possible without the support of the southern line.
but
Alas, it's so hard for me!
"If the king goes south, why not bring Yi to the army? The Wuzang clan is loyal and fights south and north. Over the years, more than ten Wuzang clan children have sacrificed their lives on the battlefield. Hengshan and Qingtang two capitals are brave and good at fighting. If you follow the army south, it will be safer." Zhe Fangai no longer hesitated and said, "Once there is a change, if there is Tianxiong and Yi follows the two armies, you will be at ease."
Shao Shude glanced at his wife in surprise.
"Tang Deng was ruined, Xiangyang was not very rich, and Jin Shang was even poorer and he was afraid that he could not afford to support so many people."
"You can always afford it for a few months?"
"It is to be able to raise it..." Shao Shude sighed and said, "Well, I can only suffer for Xiangyang and the people of Jin Shang. But since the Yi army has also gone south, this plan has to be done again."
Of course, he went south to Tang Deng, not alone.
In fact, as the head of military and political affairs and the King of Xia, the pomp is getting bigger and bigger.
Some institutions in the royal palace wanted to send people to follow him, and Chen Cheng and Zhao Guangfeng also wanted to go there. They were not alone, but a whole team.
The guards of personal soldiers, the eldest son's teacher and martial arts teacher, a large number of messengers, honor guards, daily life service personnel, etc., are numerous and huge in scale.
He is like this, you can imagine what the emperor should be on a trip.
Of course, it is not impossible to connect with the rear, but it is easy to have poor contact with the rear, and it cannot achieve some of its goals to move south. It is not simply a military operation, but also has political significance. It is necessary to let the soldiers of Tang Town know who their boss listens to, and the boss of this boss is very majestic.
In short, a team of nearly two thousand people still needs it.
Wherever this team goes, it will have to be received locally, and the cost is quite considerable. If you bring 8,000 Yi troops to join the army, the expenses will be quite large.
"I don't understand the matter of war. I only know a general idea, so I will not show my ugly face in front of my husband." Zhe Fang'ai smiled and said, "I still remember that when I first got married, my husband was not good enough for military use. My husband sighed in a long and night manner. Later, he went out to fight and got a lot of money. Didn't he solve it?"
"It's different. Shen and Guang's two states are poor and poor. Zhang Quanyi came for several months. I'm afraid that the rectification has not been completed, and it's difficult to improve the local area. It's difficult to grab enough things if the looting is done." Shao Shude said: "I beat Zhang Quanyi, but I'm not holding it in my hand."
Zhe Fangai smiled and said, "Mrs. Chen is from Xiangyang."
"Yes." Chen responded, still sitting there quietly, with no major change in expression.
"I came to Changchun Palace and brought the ceremonial guards, kitchen, doctor and maids needed for my husband to accompany me. Since Mrs. Chen is from Xiangyang, you might as well bring her husband with me, and the bento will return to her." Zhe Fang'ai said again.
Chen had only bought it for more than a month, and Shao Shude had no intention of summoning her to serve now, but the wife said that, and nodded and said, "Okay."
The Chen family in Xiangyang still has some influence in the local area, but it only lasts in Xiangzhou.
This actually reflects a special phenomenon, namely the decline of imperial power.
When Chao entered Guanzhong, Emperor Xizong was lucky to Shu, and the kings followed him.
The Concubine He Shu who is here today is from Zizhou, Dongchuan, and should have been accepted by him when he entered Shu.
Zhaoyi, Li and Chen family may have a great influence in the local area, but looking at the whole world, it is a bit too small.
The palace official Pei Zhenyi was only a branch of the Pei family branch moved to Chang'an. If he had not followed Shao Shude, would Wenxi Pei family pay attention to her? It might not have been possible.
The Pei family, Wei family, and Du family all have "good goods", but they are all used to marry into the aristocratic families. The sages ordered the selection of beauties. Although the families of the nobles and generals wanted to send their daughters to the palace, they might not give them to their legitimate daughters. Some of them simply did not give them to them. What can you do to me?
Speaking of which, it’s not as good as a martial artist’s knife. If Wang Ke can marry the Pei family’s legitimate daughter, the saint will not be able to.
That night, Shao Shude stayed in Changchun Palace and talked to Zhe for half a night.
On the second day, under the escort of personal soldiers, he returned to Lantian County with a large group of chariots and horses.
The seven thousand infantry and cavalry of the Shunyi Army continued to travel eastward and headed towards Guozhou.
The silver spears returned to Shuozhou.
The Tianxiong army had already moved south, while the Yi army was waiting in Lantian to consolidate the army.
At this time, news came from the west that Li Kuanwei's aide and judge Li Baozhen had been arrested and sent to the capital. Nearly 10,000 defeated troops of the Shence Army were captured in front and behind, and asked what to do.
Shao Shude ordered that all 10,000 people be sent to Fengzhou to build water conservancy and dig ditches. Those who have family members in Beijing will be distributed to enrich Fengzhou's household registration.
The Houtao Plain was not developed in large quantities until the end of the Qing Dynasty. The main reason is that the Yellow River has not been diverted yet and it is not so convenient to get water and irrigate, so it takes a lot of effort to develop it.
I have been doing this for many years, and now I have gained these bad people from the Shen Ce Army, so I just need to work harder.
As for the conquest of Shu, the saint was convening Yan Ying to discuss the matter.
It is reported that the saint was reluctant and afraid of being humiliated. But the matter was no longer varied by his will. It was a foregone conclusion that Liu Chongwang became the governor of Jiannan Xichuan and could not be changed.
On November 11, Shao Shude and his eldest son took two carriages and went to Dengzhou under the escort of the Yi army.
He chose to travel at night. Although such a big noise is hard to hide, it is only a day to hide it. Try to let Zhu Quanzhong know it as late as possible.
Goodbye, Chang'an!
Shao Shude was a little regretful. Before he could ask about the identity of the Zhide female crowns who had been with him for nearly a month.
But don't ask, it's embarrassing for everyone to say it.
It can be seen that they were forced to serve. It must be that the Sixteen Kings' House envoy Wang Yanfan used some methods. Especially a woman of twenty-seven or eight looked familiar, and seemed to have seen her somewhere. Shao Shude was even more embarrassed to ask.
Let's forget each other in the world.
The army walked in a row and slowly drove along Shangshan Road. During the walk and stop, waiting for supplies, they arrived in Shangluo County, Shangzhou Liaison Office in late November.
The governor of Shangzhou Chengxian went out of the city to welcome him several miles away.
...
In Pingjing Pass City, Zhao Kuanglin introduced a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman into his study.
"Mr. Zhou Yu, long time no see." Zhao Kuanglin looked at this person calmly, his face neither sad nor happy.
"Haha! Zhao Envoy became rich and forgot his old brothers." Zhou Yuhou teased.
This man's name is Zhou Tong. When the last emperor was alive, he gathered people to raise an uprising and attack Ezhou. Du Hong led his army to fight with him and defeated him.
After Zhou Tong led the remaining troops to escape, he first surrendered to the power of Qin Zong. Later, he saw that Qin's power was declining, so he turned back to surrender to Du Hong. Du Hong ignored his past grudges and allowed him to be the guardian of the shogunate and annex his subordinates.
Zhou Tong has no ambitions now, and after getting married and having children, he even had unrealistic thoughts. He was at ease to be a general in the Wuchang army, running around and fighting for Du Hong.
"Stop talking nonsense! Du Hong sent you here, I'm afraid he's hoping?" Zhao Kuangning sneered.
"The envoy Zhao voted for the new master, and the momentum of his speech was different." Zhou Tong smiled and said, "Let me guess, did you vote for Zhezong or Shao Shude. It should be the latter, it's amazing, Zhao voted for."
Zhao Kuangning stopped talking and stared at him.
"Forget it." Zhou Tong waved his hand and said, "My lord sent me to ask, if he voted over, he would be able to be the position of Supervisor E?"
"Who to vote?" Zhao Kuanglin asked.
Zhou Tong had a smile on his face and said, "You really committed suicide by joining Shao Shude, you are a traitor."
"That's not what he said." Zhao Kuanglin said without any anger, "Supervisor Zhe also obeyed the orders of King Xia. We are all subordinates of King Xia, so why should we be so clear?"
"Indeed, Zhezong was not worthy of surrendering to him. He was old and was still beaten by Ding Hui. If he wanted to surrender, he would surrender to King Xia. My lord said that the same thing." Zhou Tong expressed his consent expression.
"Zhu Quanzhong is not good enough? I haven't sent anyone to rescue me for such a long time?" Zhao Kuanglin asked.
"It shouldn't be very good. I just want to grab the territory and don't do anything at all." Zhou Tong sighed: "It seems that he is a little concerned about Yang Xingmi."
"If Yang Xingmi enters Ezhou secretly, you and Du Hong will both die."
"Who said no? Wu Qiongzhe went to Yang Xingmi, but the throne of governor was gone, and the Huai general Qu Zhang was replaced." Zhou Tong said helplessly: "To put it nicely, why are you afraid of the E soldiers and taking the initiative to offer seals to surrender and cheating the three-year-old child?"
"The King of Xia is generous and kind, and will not act like this." Zhao Kuanglin said.
"It's because he has a crush on King Xia." Zhou Tong said: "If King Xia is willing to protect my lord and continue to leave Ezhou, and he is willing to surrender to the four prefectures of E, An, Yue and Qi."
"Say all the big words." Zhao Kuanglin sneered: "Deng Jinsi in Yuezhou, can Feng Jingzhang in Qizhou listen to Du Hong?"
"Oh, what are you saying?" Zhou Tong smiled and said, "My lord is the governor of Wuchang Army. The two generals Deng and Feng also followed Du Shuai. In this battle with the Huai thieves, all the states sent troops, and they were all family members."
Zhao Kuanglin no longer had this issue with him and said, "I can't make the decision on this matter, I have to report to His Highness King Xia."

"Save it, save it!" Zhou Tong smiled and said, "As long as King Xia is willing to help, the leader of the King Xia in the four states of Wuchang Army will follow."
Help you? Zhao Kuanglin smiled in his heart. When the army is coming, some things are not that simple. (To be continued.)
