Chang'an City has become more and more lively in recent months. Li Xia is moving the administrative office from Hanzhong to Chang'an.
At present, Chengdu is the center of the area he controls, and Chang'an is the northernmost. Moving the political center of gravity northward also declares to the world that his regime has the ambition to unify the world.
Although the emperor proclaimed himself emperor and the monarch proclaimed himself king, the Chang'an regime naturally felt a sense of oppression when facing the Lin'an regime. As batches of carriages and horses entered the city, the final preparations for proclaiming themselves king came.
But for Li Xia, the most important thing about self-reliance is not that he becomes the king of Qin, but to establish a system of vassal states and formulate a new national policy. It is necessary to get rid of the redundant officials, redundant soldiers and waste in the Song Dynasty, and to eliminate the partial peace of the Song Dynasty.
Jiangnan, the influence of the national policy of emphasizing culture over military affairs, so Li Xia changed his idea of "slowly becoming king" and decided to stand on his own.
In recent days, Li Xia has been discussing with the Hantai shogunate on many matters such as the tax system, the military system, the official system, the legal system, etc.
Just like the Jinlianchuan shogunate did not change its name because Kublai Khan moved to Kaiping or Yanjing, the Hantai shogunate will probably continue to be called this by the people of the time. This day, while discussing matters, he was flipping through the reports sent from various places.
, Li Xia suddenly said: "How about we ask the Song Dynasty to move the capital to Chang'an?" Everyone in the hall was stunned.
At the end, Li Yong smiled and laughed at himself, "I forgot this method."
Yang Guo and Han Chengxu looked at each other, stroking their beards in shame. "When it comes to intrigues, we are still shallow." "That's not what I thought." Li Xia said, "That's what Zhang Wulang's letter said." "Zhang Wulang."
Yang Guo said, "How could he know Song Ting so well?" "Please take a look at the method Qin Jiushao proposed to him."
What I have to say is that Qin Jiushao quickly made Li Xia and the Hantai shogunate notice him again.
Zhang Hongdao also explained the whole story in detail in the letter... As a prisoner, Qin Jiushao was not qualified and did not know about Li Xia's plan to become independent, but he knew that the Mongolian army had withdrawn.
Even though there was only such a piece of information, Qin Jiushao keenly felt that Li Xia should go a step further. In fact, rather than directly declaring independence, asking the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to move the capital to Chang'an was a more politically mature approach.
First of all, it is justifiable. Chang'an is one of the three capitals, and Lin'an is just one of them. Now that Li Xia has blocked the Mongolian army's offensive against Chang'an, he asked the emperor to return north. This is a righteous cause. The emperor should also return north.
Of course, it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Chu to agree to move the capital.
The courtiers already regard Li Xia as Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao. How could they deliver Emperor Xian of Han to him again? No matter what excuse they make, if Li Xia says ot obstructs justice, it will take the name. At this time, he can stand on his own.
I can make the Jiangnan gentry speechless.
The fierce partisanship among the civil servants of the Song Dynasty is reflected here. Except for the Jiubu of Qin, no one under Li Xia had such an idea.
Yang Guo, Han's father and son were from the north and didn't know the Song Dynasty very well; Li Yong only served as chief official; Wu Ze was too young; Shi Jun and others would not advise Li Xia in his struggle with the Song Dynasty.
However, this is just the icing on the cake. It only involves the issue of whether it is more honorable during the rebellion. Strength is the key. But everyone thought of Qin Jiushao. Now that it is time to employ people, they obviously want to call him in for reuse. Just as he said that, Wu Ze
Entering the hall, he and Li Xia reported the situation of meeting Lu Xiufu. "Brother Jun Shi said that he wanted to persuade the king in person." "Where is he?" "He is outside."
Looking from the Chang'an Bell Tower, one can see a faint corner of the government office located northwest of the city center.
The palace will be the Prince of Qin's Palace in the future. Li Xia has not thought about building a new palace, nor does he plan to expand it. He only plans to replace the plaque. Going around to the south of the bell tower, he saw people coming and going at the city gate, and the people didn't care at all.
Don't worry about the intrigue between the court and the feudal town, just live seriously. Li Xia looked at it for a while and asked, "Didn't you want to persuade me not to rebel? Why didn't you say anything?"
"When I met Commander Jie, I felt that I shouldn't persuade him. Commander Commander Jie was determined to save the world from danger, and I'm afraid he couldn't do it if he was a minister of the Song Dynasty. I wanted to persuade Commander Commander Jie to be loyal to the Song Dynasty, but it was just empty talk."
Lu Xiufu was still the same as when he was on Qishan Road, standing next to Li Xia and looking very obedient and upright.
The last time he saw Li Xia, Li Xia was still Shu Commander, so he still used the title he used at that time. He did not turn against Li Xia because he wanted to stand on his own. At the end of the sentence, he bowed and said, "So today I am here to pay homage to Commander Jie."
Resigning." He understood the truth, but he had his own persistence.
Not to mention anything else, when he was twenty-one years old, he was selected as the twenty-seventh person in the second class during a roll call in Linxuan. This incident alone was enough for him to be recorded in the history of youth, which is something that countless people have never done in their lifetime.
of glory.
At that time, he said, "Today, the emperor's kindness is so great. I want to serve my country and encourage myself to be the best person in the world, so that I can live up to this." It's like a woman who has received an extremely heavy betrothal gift to get married, how can it be done in the blink of an eye?
Did he abandon his husband because his family was in trouble? In the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Ji faced Li Shidao's attempts to woo him in the feudal town, so he compared himself to a modest woman and declined politely.
"I know that your intentions are as good as the sun and the moon, and your vows to your husband are as important as life and death. When I return you, my pearls shed tears, and I wish I could have met you before we were married. This is just like Lu Xiufu's state of mind at this time.
Li Xia could see the deep embarrassment in his eyes and asked, "If we destroy the country, will you die for the country?" "Yes." Lu Xiufu did not hesitate.
"Hundreds of years later, if someone mentions this period of history and calls us trash and cowards, there must be at least a few names that we can use to tell others that we have backbone... From this point of view, if I can't succeed,
If you save the nation, then everything you do is not as meaningful as your integrity." Li Xia only pursues success in his life. In his eyes, failure is meaningless. This may be wrong, but that's how he is.
"I understand you. You can become the last dignity of the Song Dynasty, but I hope that we can work together to create a strong country." Lu Xiufu said, "Jie Shuai can do it without me."
"Some people have weak bones, and some people have weak wills. When our situation is good, they will quickly come over to us. I want to use such people. But when they encounter adversity, they are either afraid or their mentality will collapse immediately. I
You can't rely on them. If you want to succeed, you can only rely on people who are determined and persevering." Li Xia did not promise a reward. At this point, he said: "I lack people like you. I need you to stay and help me." Lu Xiufu hesitated.
.
He turned his head and looked at Chang'an City, thinking that he had not been able to witness the recapture of Chang'an. If he could regain Kaifeng one day, how could he miss it? This is even more impressive than being named on the gold list. But the emperor who has been named on the gold list is so generous.
In the end, Lu Xiufu bowed deeply and said, "I have been promised to the Song Dynasty." "That's fine, I won't force you." "Thank you, Commander-in-Chief."
"You help me bring a memorial back to Lin'an. I want to welcome the official family to move the capital to Chang'an. If the official family agrees, I will summon the world within a month to show the world's determination to regain the Central Plains. I can promise you not to rebel against the Song Dynasty again and swear to support you."
Song Zhongxing." Lu Xiufu was stunned and blurted out, "Really"
"You won it for the Song Dynasty. You said that you are deeply grateful to the emperor, and this trip is enough to repay the emperor of the Zhao family." On this day, Lu Xiufu left Chang'an holding an official document, and he couldn't help but feel happy and sad.
What he was happy about was that he finally had a slim chance of protecting the Song clan despite the impossibility. What was sad was that he knew that it was impossible for the officials to agree. But he had to try with all his strength. What if it was done?
The river boat sailed along the Han River and down the Yangtze River. Lu Xiufu rushed to Lin'an at almost the fastest speed. Without stopping for a moment, he asked to see his mentor Jiang Wanli. When Jiang Wanli saw Lu Xiufu, he first sighed.
He originally wrote to Lu Xiufu, hoping to control the situation from Lizhou to Jianmenguan, but he did not expect that he had already returned to Lin'an. After reading Li Xia's memorial again, Jiang Wanli was speechless for a long time, sighing again and again, and feeling helpless, he summoned officials overnight
Discuss. Some people are overjoyed.
"Today, our territory in the Song Dynasty is the largest since the southern crossing. We can defend Guanzhong and recover Bianjing in just a short time. Now we only need to agree to Li Xia and we can turn from danger to safety. Why should we hesitate?"
"I only see that Li Xia is rebellious, a minister, threatening the officials, and extremely domineering." "He just expected that we would not dare to let the officials move the capital." "Then we will move the capital and force him to ride a tiger and be unable to get off."
"What's wrong with him? He only made a verbal promise to Jun Shi." "False." "Jun Shi, what do you think?"
Lu Xiufu said, "I believe in chastity and handsomeness. Although he doesn't believe that officials dare to move the capital, if officials dare to move the capital, he might be able to impress him." "It's useless." Everyone shook their heads.
"What's the use of his promise? How many northerners are there in Guanzhong, how can it be possible for the officials to reach Chang'an safely?"
"Li Xia's empty words will not count for anything. If an official issues an edict to the world, he will not be able to go back on his words and his reputation will be ruined." "So there is no need to answer him.
"Everyone! Half of the country is not worth a fight?! We want to summon Li Xia to return to the court, why don't we go to Chang'an to suppress him!!!" "Is it possible?"
"Ignore him, he wants to harm the official family." "What if?"
Any rational official thinks that Li Xia need not be ignored.
Only a few simple-minded young officials thought it was worth a try to let Lu Xiufu present himself to the emperor. Lu Xiufu waited for seven days before he was finally able to follow Jiang Wanli into the palace to report to the officials.
It was already the eighth day of May, and there were only two days left before the one-month period agreed by Li Xia, but everyone in the court seemed to have forgotten about it... This was also the first time Lu Xiufu met the Holy Spirit since the new emperor ascended the throne.
.
He had heard many rumors about the new emperor and was mentally prepared, but when he saw Zhao Chu entering the palace, he was still surprised. He couldn't believe that this sickly and thin young man who was sluggish and sloppy was the current official.
."What's the matter with Mr. Jiang?"
Jiang Wanli said, "Your Majesty, I would like to ask Li Xia to welcome your Majesty to move the capital to Chang'an."
Lu Xiufu knew that Li Xia had expected that Zhao Zhan would not dare. This was done to cut off many people's expectations of the Song Dynasty. But if the official family could show enough courage, maybe Li Xia would change his mind. Half of the country, at least
It should be... "I'm not going to Chang'an, I'm only in Lin'an." Zhao said, "Don't even think about it."
Jiang Wanli said, "But if you don't show your determination, Li Xia will rebel and stand on his own." "How can you ask me about such a big matter?" Zhao Chu said, "State affairs should be handled by Xianggong Jia." "Your Majesty, I think this."
"Don't think that I will never go to Chang'an. Mr. Jiang keeps coming to ask. It's better to invite Mr. Jia to discuss it."
Lu Xiufu closed his eyes and recalled Wu Ze's words, "This is the helplessness of a weak leader and a weak country."~~
The days passed in Lin'an's prosperity and tranquility.
By the end of May, Lu Xiufu knew that Li Xia had learned that Zhao had not issued an edict to move the capital to Chang'an, and that the preparations for the Qin throne were almost complete. Lin'an's reaction was also tested, as were the loyal officials of the Song Dynasty in the territory.
The only thing the ministers could do was write letters, but even he, Lu Xiufu, had returned to Lin'an, and a few letters obviously couldn't stop anything. The first day of June.
Lu Xiufu sat alone on the balcony for a whole day, always looking up at the sky. He was guessing that Li Xia, who was far away in Chang'an, was about to take the throne of Qin.
It will take half a month at the earliest before Lin'an can get the news. As for now, many people are still lucky enough to think that Li Xia may not have done this. I don't know what the ceremony will look like. It must be very simple. "I missed it.
