A knife in love

Chapter 3279

When Li Zongyang said this, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "It turned out that after the group of Fusang Kingdom sent the Sui envoys to flee back to Fusang Kingdom, they told the King of Fusang Kingdom about the chaos in China. Afterwards, Fusang Kingdom recruited soldiers on a large scale. Horses, saving up money and food, plan to cross the sea and go west to seize the beautiful rivers and mountains of the Central Plains. It’s just that the country of Fusang is small and the people are poor. After decades, they can accumulate enough money and food to put together an army to conquer the Central Plains. After decades of saving money and food for soldiers, horses and horses, China has undergone earth-shaking changes. First, Emperor Sui Yang expropriated domestically and used troops indiscriminately, causing chaos in the world, and finally the rise of the Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Zhenguan, when Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne and sat in the palace, although the Wu family was chaotic, the Tang army was very strong. Later, Emperor Taizong personally led the army to the east. Although the Dongyi country was defeated and retreated thousands of miles, he finally retreated because of the lack of food and grass. After Emperor Gaozong ascended the throne, he sent general Su Dingfang and others to lead the army to the east. The Dongyi Kingdom fled watching the wind, and could only defend a corner in the southwest, unable to harass the Tang Dynasty anymore.

"The king of Fusang Kingdom worked hard to govern. He thought that he would be able to quell the war-torn Middle Earth in one fell swoop, thinking that he would be able to quell the war-torn Middle Earth. However, he didn't know that with the rise of the Tang Dynasty, Middle Earth was no longer the chaotic scene of the end of the Sui Dynasty. But he chose the Northern Expedition The commander-in-chief of the army is also a greedy person. In order to seize gold and silver treasures, he rashly attacked the Dongyi Kingdom on the way to the Northern Expedition. As a result, he met the Tang Navy who was conquering Dongyi. Liu Rengui, who was in charge of the Tang Army Navy at that time, was not a famous general. There is no reputation among the generals. But it is such an unknown general who almost wiped out the entire army of the Fusang Kingdom, and can only flee in embarrassment. How can the King of the Fusang Kingdom not be afraid?"

When Li Zongyang said this, he sighed, glanced at Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, and then continued: "Fusang Kingdom is full of ignorant people from top to bottom. They just live in the sea. There is no foreign enemy intrusion, this is how to develop arrogance and arrogance. This time, he was beaten miserably by Datang, and then he knew that the situation was not good, and the king of Fusang Kingdom hurriedly sent envoys to the middle land, and it was obvious that he was going to meet with Datang The emperor actually wanted to spy on the reality of China. After the envoys of the Fusang Kingdom arrived in China, they knew that the Tang Dynasty had defeated the Sui Dynasty. , were all beaten by the Tang army and fled. The envoys of the Fusang Kingdom saw the invincible appearance of the officers and soldiers of the Tang Dynasty with their own eyes, and were horrified in their hearts, and they were in awe of Emperor Gaozong. Telling the king of Fusang about [-], he almost scared the king to death. Fusang people have always bullied the weak and feared the strong. At this time, they are most afraid of the Tang Dynasty's military expedition, so they prepared gifts and sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty to make friends.

"The Great Tang ruled all of China, and all the barbarians were obedient. They didn't pay attention to the Fusang Kingdom thousands of miles away at all, and had no intention of going east. Seeing that the Fusang Kingdom sent envoys to visit, Emperor Gaozong was very happy and promised diplomatic relations between the two countries. Well, no swordsmanship. Afterwards, Fusang sent envoys to the Tang Dynasty many times to learn the etiquette, crafts, and art of war of the Tang Dynasty. Naturally, these envoys cannot be called envoys sent to the Sui Dynasty, but envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty.

"Among these envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty, besides the officials of the Fusang Kingdom, there were also many monks. These monks studied Mahayana Buddhism under the eminent monks of the Tang Dynasty. The mountain where we are located was originally called Weishan. During the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty, a Fusang monk who came back from the Middle Earth came here to practice. This monk went around for alms, saved up money, and built a temple on the mountain called Shengjiao Temple , the incense is very prosperous.

"The Fusang man Chao Heng mentioned below is also the Tang Dynasty envoy sent by the Fusang Kingdom to Central China. He admired the Tang Dynasty's treasures and treasures, and in the end he did not return to Fusang with the Fusang Kingdom envoy, but stayed in the Tang Dynasty as an official. This person is proficient in medical skills, He also has a literary talent, and he can be regarded as a great person. An Lushan rebelled in Youzhou, went all the way south to conquer Luoyang, and sent rebels to break through Tongguan, and the soldiers pointed directly at Chang'an. Li Longji listened to Yang Guozhong's idea and abandoned Chang'an At that time, in order not to leak the news, Yang Guozhong did not tell all the officials about the emperor's abandonment of the city. It was not until the officials came to the court that they knew that the emperor and the prime minister had escaped from Chang'an City. The soul is scattered, and it is a mess.

"After Li Longji became emperor, with the help of famous ministers such as Zhang Jiuling, Yao Chong, and Song Jing, he was still able to make great efforts to rule the country, making the Tang Dynasty powerful and powerful. It's just that after these loyal ministers left the court, Li Longji Longji's nature was fully exposed, he was addicted to drinking and sex every day, and the government was controlled by the traitor Li Linfu. Li Linfu was cunning and shameless. In order to monopolize power and frame Zhongliang, most loyal people in the court were denounced by him, and many loyal ministers and good generals were framed by him. Either they were convicted and killed, or they were demoted and exiled. Seeing this situation, the rest of the loyal officials had to resign and go back to seclusion in order to protect themselves, and left Chang'an City. Therefore, the court is full of Li Linfu's accomplices, all treacherous little People. Later Li Linfu died of illness, and Yang Guozhong became the prime minister, much more despicable than Li Linfu, as long as he was willing to give him a bribe, he promised to be an official. After a few years, there were no loyal people in the court, and they were all colluding with Yang Guozhong despicable treacherous officials.

"After hearing the news that the emperor Li Longji and the prime minister Yang Guozhong had escaped, these dirty officials naturally refused to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Many officials thought that the Tang Dynasty was exhausted and that An Lushan would definitely be the emperor, so they planned to stay in Chang'an City , After the rebels entered the city, they immediately bowed their heads to An Lushan. Although some officials had no intention of surrendering to the rebels, they did not want to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty. No matter where they fled, they would not starve to death. So they packed up the gold and silver at home, and then fled Chang'an City with their families, looking for a safe place to buy land and land, happy to be a carefree rich man.

"Although Chao Heng is from Fusang, he is very loyal to the Tang Dynasty. He is neither willing to surrender to the rebels, nor does he intend to escape from Chang'an City to escape the fire. He heard that Li Longji and his group fled westward after leaving Chang'an City, so he bought Chao Heng picked up a horse and galloped westward. Li Longji took the Yang family sisters with him, but the journey was not fast. Chao Heng finally caught up with Li Longji and his group at the boundary of Wumei County. At that time, Li Longji and Yang Guozhong only thought about Fleeing for his life, he didn't care about Chao Heng's coming and going. Not only did he not praise him for his loyalty, but he was disgusted because there was one more person eating, and he didn't want him to go with him. He often sang poems and essays, and at this time of despair, he was more and more impressed with Chao Heng's unwavering commitment to the Tang Dynasty, so he took him into his entourage and took him with him to escape."
