Five Dynasties River Mountains Fengyue

Chapter 393 The bitter master Li Yu
In autumn, the waves of the great river are gentle and sparkling, which is the season when the wind blows the fragrance of rice and flowers on both sides of the bank.

This year's Jiangnan has another bumper harvest, fertile fields and fertile soil, a land of fish and rice.

However, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, a shocking event happened. Hundreds of ships of the Zhou army went south along Luzhou, out of the Yangtze River and westward. People on the south bank of the Yangtze River were panicked.

And the entire Southern Tang court was panicked and in chaos, and some people were even so frightened that they began to tidy up.

Fortunately, after sending envoys to negotiate with the generals of the Qin army, they learned that the Qin army had no hostility towards them, but went west along the river to the vicinity of Tanzhou.

It turned out that the Southern Han Kingdom in the south attacked the prefectures and counties on the border of the Qin State. Although they were defeated by the Qin army, Shi Congyun, the emperor of the Northern Dynasty, was furious and ordered a counterattack, so he ordered the Huainan navy to march westward along the Yangtze River and then southward to Dongting Lake.

After hearing the news, the Jiangnan monarchs and ministers were finally relieved and at the same time shocked.

At the same time, the lord Li Yu ordered the prime ministers Chen Qiao and Zhang Ji to go to the river to kill sheep and cows to reward the Qin army, which is equivalent to monitoring the movements of the Qin army in disguise.

The Han State in the south has many contacts with them, and because the two countries are adjacent, they naturally know the strength and territory of the Southern Han Dynasty.

With a mere land in the south of Lingnan, how could it be possible to compete with the Qin Dynasty that spanned the Central Plains, Huainan, half of Hebei, Hedong, Guanzhong, Shu, and Jingchu?

Besides, Shi Congyun's vicious reputation is known all over the world, where did they have the courage to make trouble.

Sure enough, news came from the south that the Qin army counterattacked, broke through Chenzhou, killed the governor of Chenzhou in the Southern Han Dynasty, and the commander of the giant ship. The northern overlord Liao is no match either.

Subsequently, the imperial edict of the Qin Dynasty also crossed the river and arrived in the south of the Yangtze River.

The emperor asked Li Yu, the lord of the south of the Yangtze River, to draft a letter to the lord of the Southern Han Dynasty, asking him to donate the land of several bordering states to the imperial court, and the imperial court would let him go.

Naturally, Li Yu was not disobedient, and immediately arranged for someone to do it. Although he was talented in writing, it was too shameful to write such a letter in person, and let the people below do it all.

In the imperial city of Jinling, the ground is covered with yellow leaves after autumn, which is a bit more bleak and extraordinarily bright.
Many beautiful flowers and plants in the palace courtyard are scattered and exquisite, pavilions, pavilions, carved jade, fish, bird and phoenix patterns are lifelike, even the edges of the roof tiles are finely smoothed, many screens in the courtyard are edged with jade, The pictures of mountains, rivers and rivers on the screen are all written by famous artists and have profound meanings.

Inside and outside, luxury, delicacy, and luxury are revealed everywhere, but the luxury here is not exposed, and the style of writing and ink here almost seems to flow out.

In the courtyard, there are two banner boys standing around the stone table. Li Yu is wearing a blue and white Taoist robe, and his clothes are fluttering like a fairy. Fine silk.

The person playing chess with him is the well-known Lingxu Taoist in the south of the Yangtze River, who is eloquent and eloquent. He often recites scriptures and debates with the lord Li Yu, and the lord appreciates him very much.

He is often called to the palace to play chess and talk about scriptures.

Since he ascended the throne, Li Yu has almost ignored political affairs, indulged in romance, lectured on scriptures, traveled mountains and rivers, and wrote poems and poems. Many old officials were anxious, but there was nothing they could do about it.

For these memorials, Li Yu, the lord of the country, praised them one by one and praised their deeds, but they never changed.

This practice made Manchu civil and military both puzzled and helpless
In the courtyard, Li Yu was talking and laughing when a white-haired old man came in a few strides angrily. The maid at the door didn't stop her without paying attention, and when the chess boy didn't react, the old man had already overturned the chessboard to the ground .

With a bang, the black and white flags fell all over the ground, and many of them fell into the pool not far away, splashing water.

All the people present were frightened, the Daoist Lingxu, who was able to speak kind words, did not dare to say a word at this time, just stared blankly at this side, several court ladies and chess boys were already so frightened that they knelt down .

The old man who rushed in didn't seem to be afraid, and his eagle eyes were still looking directly at the lord Li Yu.

Li Yu didn't look angry, he just bent down to pick up the chessboard and put it on the table: "Xiao Gong has something to say."

"Qin's army has already attacked its neighbors, and the backlog of court memorials is so large that a horse-drawn cart can be used to load it. As the lord, can he still play chess leisurely here?" Xiao Yan said angrily.

"The last emperor's will to restore the glory of the Tang Dynasty is gone with His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this sentence, Li Yu was also a little angry: "Do you want to be Wei Zheng?"

Xiao Yan didn't flinch at all, "I want to be Wei Zheng, but you can't be Tang Taizong!"

"Huh!" Li Yu snorted, with an ugly face, and flung his sleeves away.

At night, the carved railings are built with jade, the water hall is warm, and the water is shining and reflected on the jade pillar flower carvings. It is like a dream. Li Yu is drunk, hugs his concubine in his arms, half drunk and half awake, and slowly raises his head But tears were streaming down his face, his beloved concubine didn't understand but didn't dare to ask.

He seems to be talking drunk, but also muttering to himself: "Those old things, they think I don't know, don't know that the Northern Dynasty is stalking like a tiger, don't know the crisis of the situation, don't know Shi Congyun's wolf ambition?"

Li Yu's voice was suppressed, with tears and tears, and he said with gnashed teeth: "He took revenge from my beloved wife, how could I forget, Ehuang, I still think of her voice and smile, and I can dream of her miserable experience at Shi Congyun's place in nightmares .

How can I not understand, how can I not hate.
I can't wait for him to die, I can't wait for him to be skinned and torn to pieces! "Li Yu said, his face flushed and he gritted his teeth.

"Your Majesty." The concubine next to her comforted her, but she was also a little scared.

Li Yu shook his head in pain: "But so what, so what?

They write letters there every day to persuade them, so they can make Qin no longer strong and make Shi Congyun die!Or who can lead troops across the river to defeat Shi Congyun for me!No, they are all a bunch of wimps, wimps who can only speak nice words! "

As he said that, he himself became desperate: "That Shi Congyun, Shu is not his opponent, Zhou Demon King is not his opponent, Hedong is not his opponent, neither is my father, even Liao is not his opponent, what else? Method.
This is a matter of destiny, but they come to blame me, what can I do? "

The more Li Yu talked, the more sad he became, because he was touched by what happened to Xiao Yan during the day.

His hatred for Shi Congyun is deeply buried in his heart. How could he easily forget the hatred of taking his wife and half of the country.

But fear overwhelmed hatred, the fear of the Qin army, and the fear of Shi Congyun was also because of the disastrous defeat in the Huainan battle. I was captured by Shi Congyun, and the army approached the city and took root in my heart, leaving a huge psychological shadow. As long as the Northern Dynasty is mentioned, and the words Shi Congyun are mentioned, he will be inexplicably terrified.

Because of this, he even gave up on himself and was full of pessimism.

He doesn't want to be a tyrant, but he can't become a lord, and he can't change the status quo. The only thing he can think of is to comfort himself with mysterious words and paralyze himself with wine and sex.

But in the end, it was unclear whether he was addicted to it and couldn't escape, or whether he was making excuses for his incompetence.

That night, Li Yu fell asleep drowsily after crying and tired.

The next day, he respected Shi Congyun's imperial decree carefully, reviewed the letter he wrote to Nanmian Liu Yu, tried his best to choose his words, and thought about how to speak to please Shi Congyun of Liang Liang, without daring to be slighted in the slightest.
