Chapter 96 Shocking News

In terms of temple status, Wang Jing is on a higher level than Fu Yanqing.

He was nine years older than Fu Yanqing, a veritable veteran of the Five Dynasties, and a frontier official with a heavy army. Wang Tingyi clearly came to serve in the central government, but in fact it meant that Wang Jingbiao loyally sent the hostages.

This guy calls daddy's name all the time, who doesn't give him some face?

Even Guo Rong had to be nice to him.

Wang Jing's intention of sending Wang Tingyi to him was immediately apparent.

"Get up!"

Luo Youdu smiled and asked Wang Tingyi to help him up. After thinking about it, he said: "If something happens in the future, if it's not enough to repay your father's name, just repay me!"

Wang Tingyi said: "My boss is Luo Youdu?"

"Yes!" Luo Youdu looked at the dancing Wang Tingyi and nodded with satisfaction. He and Hu Yanzan formed a hum-ha second general.

One on the left and one on the right, maybe they will have a place as goalkeepers in the future.

Luo Youdu continued to read. Wang Jing's letter was not entirely flattering, but it still recorded some real facts.

Among them, Wang Jing made some analysis on the situation of the Dingnan Army.

Qinzhou under Wang Jing's jurisdiction is some distance from Xia Sui where the Dingnan Army is located.

The eight poles could not be fought together, but Wang Jing not only served as the military governor of Qinzhou, but also served as the commander of the western border. It is not an exaggeration to call him the emperor of the west.

The Ma Zheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still under construction and no results can be seen.

Most of the war horses were purchased from the Ganzhou Uighurs and the Guiyi Army in the west, and they were often exchanged for grain from Guanzhong and tea from Jiangnan in the Central Plains.

Therefore, Wang Jing has certain control over grain and grass.

How could an old warlord like him not receive a small kickback from this?

Therefore, Empress Fu was filled with indignation at Wang Jing's cry for poverty.

The harvest in Guanzhong was good this year, and Wang Jing, as usual, exchanged grain for troops and horses in the border market.

At first he didn't pay much attention to it, but then he gradually realized that the supply of food exceeded the demand.

Wang Jing, who had been fighting all his life, immediately noticed that something was wrong. Someone was hoarding grain.

The West has been at peace for many years, and life-or-death enemies such as the Ganzhou Uighurs and the Guiyi Army have ceased fighting for a long time.

There is a great risk of loss in grain storage. Small forces such as the Ganzhou Uighurs and the Guiyi Army generally do not suddenly stockpile large amounts of grain during non-war times.

Wang Jing secretly kept a close eye on the situation and unexpectedly discovered that those who were buying grain were not the Ganzhou Uighurs and the Yijun Army, but the Dingnan Army under the banner of the Ganzhou Uighurs.

Wang Jing suspected that the Dingnan Army might take advantage of the chaos to invade some territories.

For example, the Hengshan Mountains.



Luo Youdu could not help but narrow his eyes as he thought about the monsters and monsters in all directions, ready to make a move. They all jumped out one by one and wanted to cause trouble, so they simply dealt with it together.

Since Luo Youdu took control of most of the Zhou Forbidden Army, he stood tall and did not take the surrounding changes seriously.

After sorting out the inside, you still need to dance outside, just conquer it.

With Wang Jing's support, Luo Youdu became more confident.

But thinking that Wang Jing regards him as the future master of the Great Zhou Dynasty in every word, I can't help but have a headache.

He is not really a sage and model like Zhuge Liang. He has his own ideals, ambitions and greed.

After taking control of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Luo Youdu also asked himself whether he wanted to be the emperor.

The answer is contradictory.

Rationality is thinking, but sensibility is the kindness of Guo Rong's knowledge and encounters, which is a bit hard to let go.

But in his plan, even if he wanted to become the emperor, it would not be now.

The most ideal situation is after the north and south are determined.

Under the current circumstances, stability is the top priority.

But Wang Jing, a man who has been through the past five generations, doesn’t think so.

Moreover, Fu Yanqing asked Queen Fu to return to the palace, but hid the emperor's heir. This operation made Luo Youdu a little confused.

Thinking about Mrs. Guo Guo's great gift, Luo Youdu couldn't help but muttered, "Is it a surprise or a shock?"

It's a great day.

All civil and military officials of fifth rank and above gathered together in one place.

Luo Youdu elaborated on the "land equalization policy" proposed by Guo Rong during his lifetime.

At the beginning of the year, Guo Rong read the "Tian Tian Biao" published by Yuan Zhen of the Tang Dynasty. He was greatly inspired and sent Ai Ying, a regular servant of Zuo Sanqi, and others to equalize the taxes of the sixty states in Henan for experimental purposes.

Except for the disaster in Huainan this year, there are no obvious disasters in other places.

Sixty prefectures in Henan have promoted and implemented the land equalization method formulated by Guo Rongxin, and the results have been remarkable.

The main purpose of this Japanese-Korean meeting was to discuss whether the Land Equalization Law could be spread throughout the country.

Just as the temple officials were expressing their opinions, a shocking news came from Youzhou Kuaima.

Guo Zongxun ascended the throne in Datong...

With the support of the Khitan, Guo Zongxun ascended the throne in Datong, Yunzhong, and issued a proclamation, calling on the ambitious people in the world to attack Luo Youdu, the rebellious minister and traitor.

Due to the urgency of the situation, Song Qi, the privy scholar, obtained the military report from Youzhou Jiedushi Chen Sirang. As soon as the military report came, he hurriedly entered the palace, interrupted the court meeting under special circumstances, and spread the sudden news to the court. Above the hall.

Luo Youdu was stunned.

Queen Fu was also confused.

The two of them knew the real situation. Guo Zongxun was clearly in Fu Yanqing's hands.

Where did Guo Zongxun of Datong come from?

Luo Youdu's second reaction was: Could this be a gift from Fu Yanqing?

What a surprise.

In this temple, Song Qi naturally presented the "Remonstrance against Thieves" to Queen Fu first.

"It's all nonsense, how can it make sense... The traitors and traitors are talking nonsense..."

Queen Fu was anxious and angry, her eyes were red, and her tone was trembling.

Luo Youdu said: "Sage, calm down, what exactly is written?"

Queen Fu said angrily: "If Zhao Kuangyi is captured in the future, he will definitely be sentenced to death."

She said this and passed the message to Luo Youdu.

Luo Youdu took the memorandum and read it carefully, and couldn't help but be stunned.

This piece of paper goes to the extreme to confuse right and wrong, stir up right and wrong, and make things out of nothing.

The memorandum stated that Luo Youdu was falsely accused of having an affair with Empress Fu, and that Zhao Kuangyin had suffered an eternal injustice. He raised the army to eradicate Luo Youdu, a rebellious minister and traitor, but he was defeated and falsely accused.

Now the only successor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Liang Wang Guo Zongxun, has ascended the throne in Datong Mansion. He still uses Xian De as his reign title and calls on all aspiring people in the Great Zhou Dynasty to fight against the traitorous Prime Minister and the Demon Queen.

Luo Youdu passed the message down and handed it to Wang Pu.

In addition to the memorandum, there are two letters, one is a personal letter from Chen Sirang, and the other is a letter of persuasion to surrender from "Guo Zongxun".

The letter of persuasion to surrender was very simple, that is, he was willing to grant Chen Sirang the title of King of Yan, hoping that he would abandon the false Zhou controlled by the evil queen and defect to the legitimate Great Zhou.

Luo Youdu once again handed down the letter of persuasion to surrender and opened Chen Sirang's personal letter.

The letter contained the results of Chen Sirang's investigation.

With the support of the Khitan, "Guo Zongxun" ascended the throne in Datong, appointed Zhao Kuangyi as the king of Song Dynasty, named Zuopushe, served as his minister, and added officials and apprentices in Pingzhang affairs to form a new court.

What's going on?

It turns out that Zhao Kuangyi, Zhao Kuangmei and Zhao Dezhao sent Liu Jiye and Hou Barong to Jinyang.

Han Emperor Liu Chengjun's initial reaction was that he was overjoyed and a gift from heaven. But after the surprise, he immediately realized that this "Guo Zongxun" was a hot potato.

If the Northern Han Dynasty was strong enough, "Guo Zongxun" would be an unparalleled political bargaining chip.

However, the Northern Han Dynasty sent Guo Rong to fight in the Battle of Gaoping and the defense of Jinyang was severely damaged.

The loss of national power was so heavy that it has not yet recovered.

Luo Youdu was able to forcefully defeat the Khitan army of 100,000 people and capture Yanyou's hometown.

The entire Northern Han Dynasty had less than 30,000 soldiers. How could they compete with the Central Plains?

Use "Guo Zongxun" to make peace with the Central Plains?

In exchange for some territory?

Liu Chengjun had thought about this, but he didn't dare. This would not offend the Central Plains, let alone the Khitan father.

After Liu Chengjun came to the throne, he worked diligently and loved the people, respected the scholar-bureaucrats, and appointed Guo Wuwei as prime minister. The Northern Han Dynasty achieved a certain degree of recovery.

However, Liu Chengjun was not as respectful to the Khitan as his father, which already made the Khitan emperor dissatisfied.

After Yelujing returned to the grassland, the first thing he did was to issue an edict accusing Liu Chengjun of "talking like a son of the emperor and not obeying the arrangements."

He expressed his dissatisfaction with Liu Chengjun's temporary emergency transfer of Liu Jiye from the battlefield in Hebei.

Liu Chengjun felt aggrieved in his heart, but he did not dare to show it.

Liu Chengjun knew that he had offended the Khitan father. If he took the initiative to make friends with the Central Plains, would he not be beaten by the Khitan father?

After thinking about it, Guo Wuwei suggested that he might as well throw the hot potato to the Khitan father.

It just so happens that Yelv House is located in Jinzhou.

Yelvwuzhi is an extremely talented person. He has the tools of a prime minister, has a deep mind, and keeps promises. He is very knowledgeable about Chinese culture, and is also proficient in astronomy and geography. He can govern the country with literature and lead troops with martial arts. He is a rare intellectual and military talent in Khitan.

.

He was the first contributor to Yelujing's ability to sit on the throne. Later, he was also the first contributor to Yelvxian's ability to sit on the throne.

It can be said that during these years when the internal fighting among the Khitan was the most brutal, the Khitan was still able to maintain its position as the overlord of the Northland, and Yelvwuzhi was indispensable.

Yelvwuzhi saw that the rise of the Central Plains was irreversible, and knew that the Central Plains that had captured Yanyou Land would not be able to let go of the remaining Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures. He must make preparations in advance and personally come to appease Liu Chengjun and send him to

Carrots came to consolidate their relationship and reach an agreement on military and economic mutual assistance.

The Khitan already lost Youdu Palace and could no longer lose Datong Palace, let alone allow Datong Palace to be affected by the war.

Jinzhou in the Northern Han Dynasty was their natural line of defense and battlefield.

During the negotiation, something happened in the Central Plains. Yelu Wuzhi wanted to know the situation first-hand, so he stayed in Jinzhou, looking for opportunities to add insult to injury.

When Liu Chengjun sent "Guo Zongxun" to Yelu Wuzhi, Yelu Wuzhi instantly realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Yelvwuzhi is well aware of the Han culture in the Central Plains and the importance that the Central Plains attaches to orthodoxy.

With "Guo Zongxun", the first heir of the Central Plains Dynasty, in their hands, they took the political initiative.

As a result, the Central Plains is likely to fall into civil strife again, and the opportunity will come.

Even if they didn't get the expected results, they didn't lose anything. They just recognized one more emperor's son.

Khitan has always had no shortage of emperors.

Yelu Wuzhi knew that there was no need to delay. He knew Luo Youdu's methods and could not give him too many opportunities and time to stabilize the situation.

He personally helped "Guo Zongxun" ascend the throne in Yunzhong, and wrote a letter to slander Empress Fu and Luo Youdu. As an orthodox official of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he gave verbal promises to the Jiedu envoys of the Great Zhou Dynasty to be promoted to officials and nobles, and called on them to fight against the puppet imperial court of the Central Plains.
