During the previous Wei Dynasty, a two-capital system was implemented, one in the east and one in the west. The capital in the east is now the Imperial Capital, and the capital in the west is the Xijing.
Xijing is also the ancient capital of several dynasties and was once the capital of the Daqi Dynasty.
Since the 20th year of the Ming Dynasty in the Great Wei Dynasty, the Golden Horde Khanate, located on the vast northern grasslands, has repeatedly invaded the border from the northwest. In the 22nd year of the Ming Dynasty, the Golden Horde army came to Xijing City, and Emperor Yong of the Ming Dynasty issued an order:
Qi Ying, the governor-general of Qin Dynasty, came forward to enter into a city-wide alliance with Ili Khan of the Golden Horde. The Wei court compensated the Golden Horde army with 200,000 taels of gold, 13.3 million taels of silver, 1 million shi of grain, and 33 taels of tea.
One hundred thousand catties and three hundred thousand pieces of silk were ceded to the three prefectures of Liangzhou and one prefecture of Qinzhou, and the Golden Horde army withdrew.
In the tenth year of Wude, Qi Ying, the governor-general of central Qin, died suddenly. Ili Khan led the Golden Horde army to go south again and captured Xijing. Emperor Wude was so frightened and angry that he fell ill and could not govern. The government was left to the Queen Xie and the cabinet chief.
Assistant Zhang Suqing co-acted. Under Zhang Suqing's leadership, the imperial court refused to negotiate peace and mobilized troops from Shuzhou, Zhongzhou, Jinzhou, Yanzhou and other places. Qin Wubing's ancestor, the Zuo Commander Qin Xiang, personally led the army to fight against Jinzhang in Qinzhou.
The army launched a great battle, forcing the Golden Horde army to retreat to Liangzhou.
The following year, the Golden Horde army withdrew due to lack of food and grass. Just when Qin Xiang was planning to regain Qinzhou, Liangzhou and other places, Emperor Wude, who was seriously ill, died in the Yanbo Hall of Xiyuan. In the same year, Qinzhou, Liangzhou and other places
A famine broke out in the prefecture and hundreds of thousands of people were homeless. The Gezaodao and other Taomen side branches headed by the Dishi took the opportunity to start an uprising, swept across the two prefectures, occupied Xijing, and elected Tantai Yun as the co-leader, known as the King of the West.
It was at this time that the fledgling Xuansheng came to Liangzhou, determined to pacify the world.
At this time, because of the new emperor's accession to the throne, the situation in the Wei Dynasty was turbulent and unclear, and there was no time to take care of the two states of Qin and Liang. In the second year of Tianbao, Empress Dowager Xie launched a coup in the imperial capital and killed the four ministers Gu Ming headed by Zhang Suqing. Among the crimes listed
There is one article: "The inability to fully negotiate with the Golden Horde led to today's northwest rebellion." After Zhang Suqing was killed, Qin Xiang, who was favored by Zhang Suqing, was also implicated and was dismissed from office and imprisoned. Thanks to many rescues by others, he saved his life and returned.
to my hometown.
Later, Xuan Sheng came forward and promoted Qin Xiang to go to Liaodong, and eventually became the founding king of Daxuan.
After Qin Xiang was imprisoned, the imperial court no longer had any generals to fight with. It tried several times to regain the northwest, but was defeated by Tantai Yun. Countless troops were lost and the treasury became increasingly empty, making it difficult to support the war.
In the third year of Tianbao, Tantaiyun led his army to invade Shuzhou and defeated the imperial army. In just one year, he pacified sixteen tribes of barbarians in southern Xinjiang, including Shuzhou, Qinzhou and Liangzhou.
The land was officially separated and a country was established, with Xijing as the capital, and the country was named Da Zhou.
Until Xuansheng led the Taoist sect to defeat the Confucian sect and Daxuan replaced the Wei Dynasty, the Great Zhou Dynasty was still separatist in the northwest. At this time, Qin Xiang had changed from the guilty minister of the Wei Dynasty to the hero of the Daxuan Dynasty, and once again led the army to regain the northwest.
Seeing that the situation was unstoppable, Tantai Yun reached an agreement with Xuansheng and left for the Western Regions. As a result, the Tantai family was divided into two branches, one was the Confucian Tantai family, and the other was the Taoist Tantai family.
Zhang Yuelu's mother, Tantai Qiong, was born in the Confucian Tantai family. She married into the Taoist sect and became a disciple of the Taoist sect. As for the Taoist sect's Tantai family, she went overseas and is said to have taken root in the Western Continent.
After the Daxuan court recovered the northwest, they rested for ten years, raised troops again to defeat the Jinzhang, regained Xizhou, and established the Xizhou Protectorate, thus establishing the territory we have today.
Taking into account that Xijing was once the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Daxuan court changed Xijing and Xizhili into prefectures, which is today's Xijing Prefecture.
Qinzhou Taoist Palace and Wuxu Palace are both located in Xijing Prefecture. Wuxu Palace was once the royal palace of the Daqi Dynasty, and was later occupied by Tantaiyun, and later fell into the hands of Taoism. It is said that there was originally a cave in Wuxu Palace.
, but now it has disappeared. I don’t know if it was broken or for other reasons.
Difei Mountain is located just outside Xijing City. Basically, you enter Xijing's territory after exiting Difei Mountain.
Although Qi Xuansu didn't know that Uncle Feng was chasing him, or that he had accidentally escaped Feng Bo's two pursuits, he didn't forget about the "Tianting" thing, so he still took precautions. Along the way,
Go where there are many people. Because the more people there are, the greater the power of the government and Taoist sects, and the less masters of secret societies dare to act rashly. If the person who comes is not a master, but just an ordinary person, then Qi Xuansu can handle it himself.
After Feng Bo knew Qi Xuansu was going to Xijing through some mysterious induction, he couldn't help but cursed in his heart. This guy was too slippery and kept his hands free. He just went into these tricky places.
Although Xijing Mansion is not as scary as Difei Mountain, it cannot be ignored. It is not difficult for him to hide his identity and sneak into Xijing Mansion, and it is not dangerous. But if he kills people in Xijing City, he will take some risks.
. And there is only one chance to take action. No matter whether you succeed or not, you must retreat in time, otherwise you are likely to fall into danger.
Feng Bo identified Qi Xuansu as a member of the Taoist sect or the imperial court, so he preconceptionally believed that Qi Xuansu could ask for help from the Taoist sect and the imperial court. The Taoist sect and the imperial court would definitely not sit idly by. However, he did not know that Qi Xuansu was a fake, so after many considerations, Fengbo still decided
Deciding to take action in Xijing City, he really didn't want to wait any longer.
One is that Chi Ze suddenly changed, and Qi Xuansu escaped in front of his eyes twice. Who knows if there will be a third time.
Secondly, it won't get much better if we continue on. Qinzhou is no better than Yongzhou, Xizhou, Liangzhou and other places. It is already within the scope of the ancient Central Plains and has a dense population. It is also the core sphere of influence of Quanzhen Tao, almost three times.
One step at a time, five steps at a time, he could tell that this boy was probably going to take the first line of Beimang Mountain. This is a famous Quanzhen Taoist mountain second only to Difei Mountain.
The hall has set up three huge workshops here, and another one. Next is the sphere of influence of Longmen Mansion and Wanxiang Taoist Palace. Because of the transcendent status of Wanxiang Taoist Palace, before being promoted to a fourth-level Taoist priest, he will go to the upper palace of Wanxiang Taoist Palace.
By further training, you have already entered the core area of influence of the Taoist sect, and it will be difficult to escape.
The third is that the connection between the two is getting weaker and weaker, and the time left for the magical power is running out. If he doesn't take action at this time, he may be lost.
Uncle Feng made up his mind, no matter whether it was success or failure, this was the last fight. If it could succeed, then it would be the best. If not, then forget it, just cut off a similar head, burn it into charcoal, and then take it back to replenish the balance. It was considered right.
The subordinates have an explanation, so that people's hearts will not really be dispersed.
At this time, Qi Xuansu finally arrived in Xijing City.
As the accompanying capital of the previous dynasty, the former capital of the Daqi Dynasty, and the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, the style of Xijing is not comparable to that of Xiping Prefecture and Tianshui Prefecture. Shangqing Prefecture and Jiangling Prefecture located in the south of the Yangtze River are also far behind. Although Jinling Prefecture is in
It may be slightly better in terms of prosperity, but when it comes to majestic atmosphere, it is still a bit inferior.
Qi Xuansu looked up at the city wall of Xijing. It covered the sky and could not see the head. It was said that six horses could run parallel on it. Only such a wall could place artillery and ballistas. He couldn't help but marvel.
The feeling of thousands of years of vicissitudes is overwhelming.
This city has witnessed the rise and fall of many dynasties, one after another.
