After the Chang Dynasty, Li Mi went to the school field as usual to review the troops who were training.
"Actually, after launching two palace coups that year, I no longer believe in warriors! After arriving at Luofengpo, I wish I could destroy these disloyal and unjust people!"
Looking at the soldiers kneeling on the ground and shouting long live, Li Mi said with emotion and raised his hands in response.
Han Shitou was silent.
"Let's talk about Zhang Huan. After returning from southern Xinjiang, he was like a dead snake. I know what he was thinking. He just thought that after he became successful and famous, he didn't want to bother and just kept his reputation for the rest of his life.
But that idiot didn’t want to think about it. If I were defeated, how could he still please me? Don’t forget, that scoundrel has many generals under his command, and there is no place for him to stand!"
Han Shitou laughed dryly.
"kill!"
The army began to drill. Li Mi watched casually and said: "As for Chen Xiao and Yang Minghe, those two traitors, I can only endure it for now and wait for the results in Guanzhong. If that evil species is defeated, I will kill them."
Kill these two men, sacrifice their heads to the flag, and swear to fight."
"Wei Zhong... what a pity." Li Bi sneered, "Someone proposed to marry Wei Ling'er a while ago, and Wei Zhong refused without hesitation. How old is Wei Ling'er? If you're not married, what are you waiting for? Waiting for that scoundrel?"
Han Shitou saw a horse flying toward the school ground.
"After all, my biggest mistake over the years is that I have not cultivated a few generals. Otherwise, how could I have been controlled by warriors? At this moment, I finally understand the Southern Zhou emperor's intention of using culture to control military force."
"Your Majesty!" Han Shitou pointed at the person coming.
"It's the man on the mirror."
The visitor verified his identity under the high platform and came up quickly.
"Your Majesty!" The visitor knelt down and saluted.
"Say!" Li Bi took a breath and stared at the visitor.
According to time, the preliminary results of the battle in Guanzhong should be announced.
If the evil species is defeated...
"More than 100,000 Guanzhong Allied Forces fought against Yang Ni and suffered a disastrous defeat..."
Guanzhong, the overall situation is decided!
Guanzhong has always been the core of the Central Plains dynasty. However, those powerful families have become a major concern for the emperors. Emperors of all dynasties have wanted to suppress this force, but they have been unable to do so.
Over the years, the emperors' methods of suppressing the powerful families in Guanzhong have been very subtle, and no emperor has ever dared to use troops.
But Li Xuan moved.
Han Shitou was so worried that he wished he could fly to Guanzhong and persuade his little master to change his mind.
He felt that the little master was in danger.
But now...the Guanzhong Allied Forces have been defeated.
What do the wealthy and powerful people have after their defeat?
Their most sharp population, the most feared by the emperor, was gone.
What's left?
Han Shitou wanted to look up to the sky and scream.
I want to express my filial piety to express my inner joy.
Suddenly, my shoulders sank.
Li Mi put his hand on his shoulder and said through gritted teeth: "That bastard, that bastard..."
"Your Majesty, take care of yourself!"
Han Shitou couldn't help but panic when he saw Li Mi's pale face.
You must not fall down!
Li Miqiang smiled and said, "It's okay for me! It's okay for me!"
He looked at the soldiers and said, "We're back."
When going down the steps, Li Mi staggered. Han Shitou was worried that he would roll down, so he quickly went up to help him.
"I'm fine!" Li Mi emphasized again.
But a feeling of twilight emerged spontaneously.
Guanzhong was the last straw in Li Mi's hand. The allied forces in Guanzhong were defeated. He was empty-handed and could no longer compete with Li Xuan.
At the moment, we can only hold on to Shu and leave the rest to God's will.
The news has gone viral.
"good!"
After hearing the news, Zhou Qin walked around the house with his old dog and said with a glowing face: "The weather is good today, prepare wine and meat, let the whole family have a drink!"
He sneaked all the way to the outside of Zhou Zun's study. When he saw his son looking at the map blankly, he smiled and said, "Why, are you planning for Zitai on how to attack Shu?"
"In terms of conquest, I am not qualified to be Zitai's disciple. I am just thinking about what Zitai wants."
"Are you talking about Guanzhong?"
Zhou Qin came in, put the bird cage on the ground, and sat aside.
"After this battle, the powerful and powerful families in Guanzhong have been severely weakened. The rest must be as silent as a cicada. I know Zitai's temperament. He will not give up when he gets good, and will definitely suppress him. Aye, all the powerful and powerful people in the world are at the mercy of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
He was shivering underneath, does Zitai want to clean himself thoroughly?"
"No way!" Zhou Qin shook his head, "He has purged the world's powerful families, so who will control the local area? Just rely on the officials? If there are no local powerful forces to balance him, sooner or later those officials will become corrupt officials."
"Also, even if the world's rich and powerful people are purged, the civil and military officials, relatives and friends under his command will transform into powerful people in ten or twenty years. Isn't this the reincarnation he hates the most?"
"What do you want to do with this?" Zhou Qin said very freely and freely: "Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Don't be a beast for your children and grandchildren."
"But what should Zhou do?"
Zhou Qin turned around and said: "Sanlang sent someone to say that Aning asked people to come out of the palace to warn him, and the Zhou family should set an example. Sanlang couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to obey. Without those people, Aye, Zhou family... that's it.
An empty shell."
The father and son were silent.
The old dog drooped his head in the birdcage, as if feeling the pressure.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhou Qin asked, "What do you want? Lord Zhang!"
Zhou Zun smiled bitterly, "I don't know."
"Do you think you can resist?"
"cannot!"
"Then, close your eyes and enjoy!"
…
"A storm is coming!"
The climate in Shu is changeable. The sun is shining brightly in the morning, but at almost noon, the sky is covered with dark clouds.
Huang Chunhui stood in the yard, stretched out his hand and patted the trunk of the big tree next to him, and said: "If Guanzhong is pacified, the general situation of the world will be stable. This country will also be stable."
Huang Lu stood beside her and beamed with joy, "Aye, who would have thought that the young man you promoted back then has become an emperor now."
"I don't care about this. I'm just a little confused."
Huang Chunhui sighed, "Northern Liao! The great enemy that has been there for many years is gone. Southern Zhou! The fleas that have been holding the Tang Dynasty in check are gone. Those worms in Guanzhong! They have been harming the world for thousands of years, and they are gone."
If it’s gone, it’s gone. He’s destroyed all the things I hated before. So, what’s the point of living for me?”
"Aye, please don't think so wildly." Huang Lu was frightened, "We can go home once Shu is defeated."
"Thinking about glory and wealth?" Huang Chunhui asked.
Huang Lu hesitated for a moment, "I'm lying to you if I say I don't want to. I think so."
"I have been kind to him. If he can return to Chang'an, he will be a prince. But Da Lang!"
"Why!"
"With the title of Duke, the family business will expand rapidly. What will our family look like in ten or twenty years?"
Huang Lu was startled, "You mean..."
"You will transform into a wealthy and powerful family that I hate!"
Huang Chunhui walked slowly towards the door with his hands behind his back.
"Aye..." Huang Lu was a little confused.
"This is reincarnation! How many years have passed, and every time one crop is extinguished, another crop will appear again, just like weeds, if you light a fire and burn them, they will appear to be gone. But the roots are deep underground, waiting for the spring breeze to come and grow again.
germination……
And that root system is called desire!"
Huang Chunhui walked outside his home and saw two beggars squatting opposite him. When they saw him, they actually smiled.
Huang Chunhui also smiled, then looked in the direction of Chang'an and said:
"Zitai, you killed this weed, but people's hearts are unpredictable and their desires are like fire. How can you control it?"
…
Wei Zhong can be regarded as having nothing to do now.
I got up in the morning to practice. After breakfast, I wandered around at home. When I was tired, I went to the study to read and write.
This was a standard day for becoming an official. Wei Zhong felt very comfortable at first. But as time went by, he felt even more bored.
"Aye!"
Wei Zhong, who was reading in the study, had a straight face, "Why did you come out again?"
Yesterday, Wei Ling'er sneaked out and was punished by Wei Zhong to be grounded in his room for one day.
"Aye! I heard them say that the coalition forces in Guanzhong were defeated?"
Wei Ling'er rushed in. His fiery personality gave Wei Zhong a headache. He put down the book, covered his forehead and said, "Why are you concerned about this matter?"
"Then, is the next step going to be to attack Shu?"
Wei Zhong nodded, "The Northern Liao Dynasty was destroyed, the Southern Zhou Dynasty was tied up, and Guanzhong was suppressed. He looked around and found it difficult to find an opponent. So, the next step is to come to Shu. Repay kindness and revenge. At this moment, Li Bi,
He must be in a state of panic."
"Then...Aye, whose side are you on?" Wei Ling'er asked.
"Li Bi has wanted to kill his father for a long time. Which side can you tell me as my father?" Wei Zhong sighed, "It's a pity that I can't contact Chang'an."
Li Mi kept a close eye on important people, including the Zhou family, Wang family, Huang Chunhui, Wei Zhong... every move of these people was in the eyes of the mirror.
The Zhou family had tried it at the beginning. Zhou Qin ordered a steward to contact Chang'an. As a result, the steward was captured before leaving Yizhou, and his head was thrown outside the gate of Zhou's house.
"Then, what if I can find someone?" Wei Linger said.
"You?" Wei Zhong looked at his daughter.
"Yes!" Wei Ling'er stood there pretty.
"Could it be..." Wei Zhong stood up and looked outside, coldly saying: "Who?"
A woman walked in.
Looking at mediocrity like a village girl.
"Jinyiwei Huahua, I have met Wei Gong!"
"Ling'er, you..." Wei Zhong finally understood that it was Jin Yiwei who had found his daughter.
Wei Ling'er said: "Aye, the false emperor is doing the wrong thing, how can you still bear it?"
"You go out first!" Wei Zhong pointed to the door.
"Aye..."
"go out!"
Wei Ling'er went out sadly.
"sit!"
Wei Zhong nodded.
"Thank you."
Huahua sat down.
"What's the plan from Chang'an...?" Wei Zhong asked.
In the end, the word "Your Majesty" was not uttered.
Huahua said: "Guanzhong is silent at the moment, and your majesty still has some methods in the future. Once Guanzhong is completely settled, he will lead the army to attack Shu. This battle is probably the last battle in the Central Plains. Your majesty just wants to capture the puppet emperor and his son.
As for the others..."
There is no mention of Western Xinjiang in this sentence, as if it is a country chicken and a dog that can be killed with a slap.
Wei Zhong knew that this was letting him express his position.
"Ling'er has been friends with him for many years."
This man actually wants to give his daughter away!
But Huahua then thought about it, Wei Ling'er was not young yet, but she had never been married, so she was waiting for the emperor.
Thinking about the emperor's still handsome face, Huahua couldn't help but sigh: Sure enough, it's good to be good-looking!
"I can't interfere in this matter." Huahua shook her head, "However, Wei Gong's title remains."
This is the emperor's greatest goodwill.
"I came because of Wei Gong's past friendship with His Majesty."
Huahua calmly stretched out her hand.
"Your Majesty said, he extended his hand, don't let his friendship fall into the dust!"
Wei Zhong knelt down sideways and saluted in the direction of Chang'an.
"I, Wei Zhong, am willing to serve your Majesty!"
Wei Ling'er, who was eavesdropping outside the door, raised her eyebrows and silently pumped her fist.
