The Yanming of the Five Hus and Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 62 Huan Wenyin has the intention of the Northern Expedition, Shi Zun is trapped and his father and son disappear
In the fourth month of the fifth month of Yonghe, Emperor Mu of the Jin Dynasty, Yinghuo committed the crime of accumulating corpses, and committed the crimes of Pleiades, Yue, and Yinghuo, who violated Hegu in the north.Zhan said: "There is a large army, there are mourners, and the disaster is in Zhao."

The leader of the Jie tribe, the emperor of Zhao State: Shi Hu, died in the Jinhua Palace in Yecheng.

Prince Shi Shi then ascended the throne and respected Liu as the empress dowager.The Liu family proclaimed Zhizhi in the court and wanted to make Zhang Jack the prime minister, but Zhang Jack refused to accept it.

Although Zhang Jackal has now mastered the defense of Yecheng and the guards of the imperial city, he is still relatively young in Zhao's army. In order to appease Shi's clan, Empress Dowager Liu followed him.

Now that Shi Hu is gone, the strong minister Shi Bin has long since died.Zhao Guo's frontier ministers and powerful generals are all waiting for the opportunity to move, and Zhao Guo's chaos is coming.Scholars in the Central Plains, who have already suffered from chaos, will experience another unprecedented chaos.On the dilapidated land of the Central Plains, wars once again turned against each other, and people were in dire straits.

Some people have seen through the prospects of the Zhao State, such as Xu Tong, the servant of the Zhao State, who retreated back to the mansion that day, retreated to the left and right, drank poisonous wine in the hall, and sighed: "Chaos is about to happen, and I can do nothing to prevent it."

In the realm of the four directions, everyone is staring at it.

Mansion of General Zhengxi in Jingzhou

"Report, General Anlu has received a report. The fake Zhao Wang Shihu died yesterday, and now the young master Shi Shi is on the throne." Huan Wen was discussing with the generals at this time, when he suddenly received the report from the scouts, he was overjoyed.

"Haha, I got what I wanted, this tiger finally died." Huan Wen laughed loudly, "The Zhao Kingdom also found a boy to be the emperor, God help me, at this time, we will sweep the Central Plains north, In the old capital."

A member of the family complimented: "The general should have the achievements of Wang Dun, join the center, add Jiuxi, and the military affairs of the Jin Dynasty will all belong to the general."

"Huh?" Huan Wen said noncommittally: "Wang Dun's achievements are small. I should pursue King Sima Xuan." After speaking, Huan Wen laughed.

After hearing this, everyone was stunned for a moment, and then echoed: "The heroic and majestic appearance of the general is unrivaled in my court."

"General, the problem is not on the side, but on the inside." Longxiang General Yuan Qiao got up and bowed to Huan Wen, "The great general destroyed Shu, and his achievements are rare since the Jin Dynasty went south. Conquer Luoyang and welcome the first emperor's palace. The meritorious deeds are formidable. How can the Jin Dynasty reward them? According to the general's plan, we should be prepared to repair our military equipment and recruit refugees to expand our army. We also wrote a letter about the Northern Expedition of the Ming Dynasty, so as to observe the trend of Jiankang. Cough cough." Yuan Qiao continued to cough after speaking.

Huan Wen hurriedly got up and helped him sit down to rest, and said: "I pacified the Han Dynasty, thanks to your strength. Now that the north is in turmoil, we should act according to the opportunity, and rely on Uncle Yuan Yan's plan."

"The general's reputation is too high. I went back to the capital that day and looked at the officials in the court. Yin Hao had the ambition of the Northern Expedition, and Chu Po, the father of the Empress Dowager Chu, also had the same intention. However, both of them were good at talking. They had never joined the army. There must be future troubles. Cough cough..." After finishing speaking, Yuan Qiao supported the seat and tried to support himself and said, "Why should the general be the bird in his early years, and lose in the court, so he can only rely on the general's order."

Huan Wen thought for a while, "Yin Hao, I have always known him as a man of virtue and talent. If he is in charge of punishment, it should be able to deter Bai Kui. If it is used in military affairs, it would be against his talent. It's a pity."

Huan Wen supported Yuan Qiao and said: "Qing also knows what I want, come and help the general back to the inner hall to rest."

Yuan Qiao was still worried: "People do not have long-term concerns, but they must have near-term worries. Although the Jin Dynasty has established itself in the south of the Yangtze River, the army has been weak for a long time. The trouble is that everyone in the gentry is selfish and cannot do their best to help and protect the country. At the time of Yangzhou, there were many people watching the capital, and the spirit of the soldiers was available, so we should recruit brave men to fill the army."

Huan Wen thought for a while, and said: "Jingkou wine can be drunk, Ji can be used, and soldiers can be used. If we can gain the strength of the refugees, it will be of great benefit to our army. But who can I recruit?"

Yuan Qiao supported the sick body and said: "General, if you want the strength of the refugees, you must do 'earth break'."

"The ground is broken?"

"Ahem, general, when Emperor Cheng was here, in order to increase taxes, the overseas Chinese were incorporated into the household registration of the county where they lived, the hidden household registration was investigated, and the number of registered residents was expanded. However, the government will die. The general wants to increase the number of troops and attract refugees. He must do it. Cough Cough." Yuan Qiao finally couldn't bear it any longer.

Huan Wen saw that Yuan Qiao was ill and unable to support him, so he hurriedly said: "Hurry up and send Yuan Gong back to the mansion to rest."

Watching Yuan Qiao leave the mansion, Huan Wen murmured to himself: "Without Yuan Qiao, how could I be in the position of glory today." Looking back to the left and right, he said, "What Yuan Gong said is a plan to enrich the country and strengthen the army. If I can take charge The government should do it right."

Yuan Qiao is very talented and courageous.It's a pity that he was injured several times in the Battle of Pingshu. Although he was treated, his health has been deteriorating since he entered Jiankang last time, and Huan Wen was very worried.

Huan Wen returned to the mansion and stood still: "Order all the armies to prepare their troops and horses, and the generals must focus on restoring the Central Plains to the north."

The generals in the hall got up and said: "The ministers are waiting for orders."

At this time, Zhao Guowei County.

On the official road leaving Yecheng, a group of soldiers were walking slowly under the setting sun, and they didn't know where they were going, as long as they were as far away from Yecheng as possible.

A few days ago, in the Changle Palace on the outskirts of Yecheng, Shi Zun had been here for a long time, and every day he just wandered leisurely among the orchestra, silk and bamboo, beautiful wine and food.

During the Yongjia Rebellion, the whole country fell apart, and Liu Yuan captured all actors, officials and musicians, and Shi strangled Liu Yao, and the musicians were resettled in Yecheng.The Jin Dynasty suffered from the absence of the Baqi dance, but in the hinterland of Hebei, the sound of bells and tripods still exists, and Yecheng is particularly prosperous.

At this time, in Changle Palace, musicians are playing the ancient elegant music "Zou Yu".

Accompanied by the singing: "He who grows up, Jia, with one hair and five scorpions, is so sad..." The dancer's waist is girded, the skirt of the lower body falls to the ground, his face is dimpled, he holds a round fan, and the The flying fairy bun rolls up and down with the music, like a fairy descending into the world.

The musicians and dancers were playing seriously, while Shi Zun on the high platform just kept drinking and was not interested in the dance in front of him.At this time, there was a sound of "bang", Shi Zun on the desk angrily threw his wine glass on the hall, as if there was an unknown anger that had nowhere to vent.The music stopped instantly, and the dancers and musicians came to the hall to apologize.

At this time, Meng Zhun came in quietly from the side hall from outside the hall. Seeing those people kneeling under the hall, Meng Zhun hurriedly said: "Pengcheng King, these people are also following orders, and their responsibility is useless. Fear of being caught by someone."

Shi Zun only smiled wryly and said: "Father called me to the capital, and now more than ten days have passed, and there is no news. Meng Zhun, do you think I came here to listen to Huang Zhong Dalu?" Then he asked quietly, " You have been to Yecheng for a long time, is there any news?"

Meng Zhun leaned closer and said, "Your Majesty, this is exactly what this minister is here for." Meng Zhun just looked at the musicians in the hall.

Shi Zun hurriedly waved his hands and said, "You wait, there is no need for you to serve here."

Meng Zhun's words became even more mysterious, "Your Majesty, when I came back this time, I brought a person with me. This person is waiting in the side hall. I hope that Your Majesty will condescend to come and meet you."

"Isn't it right that there is no one else here?" Shi Zun was very suspicious.

Meng Zhun didn't speak, but stood up and made a decisive gesture of congratulations, "Pengcheng King, please."

Shi Zun only followed Meng Zhun through the side hall, which had been arranged by Meng Zhun in advance, and it was empty, except for a woman standing with her back in a dark place in the hall.Shi Zun walked in slowly, and the man turned around and took off a veil.

"Shi Yun, why is it you? You are not..." Shi Zunda was puzzled and shocked at the moment Shi Yun took off the veil.

"Didn't you die?" Shi Yun said flatly, "I have died once, if it wasn't for Zhao Guo, Prince, I would really want to die."

"Prince? How is Brother Shi?" Shi Zun asked hurriedly after returning to normal.

Shi Yun only stepped forward, staring at him carefully.

"You are back to life. I haven't seen you for a few days, but your figure is a few times fatter than when I saw you last time."

Shi Zun smiled wryly and said: "I wandered around in this Anle Palace for several days in a row, and I sent people to Yecheng but was not summoned. It's really 'Anle'."

Shi Yun paced around him, looked at him carefully, and couldn't help but get angry and said: "How did my Shi clan end up like this, Shi Zun, now King Yan Shi Bin is dead, and the life and death of Emperor Shi Hu is unknown, if we don't work hard, we Shi Yun The country of our ancestors is lost in our hands."

Shi Zun bowed his head and responded silently. Shi Yun continued, "I was entrusted by my younger brother. If it weren't for his help, I would not be able to leave this city. The crown prince asked me to tell you that Yecheng has undergone major changes, so leave quickly. .”

Hearing this, Shi Zun raised his head and said doubtfully: "I came here by the order of my father, is it wrong to leave like this without seeing my father?"

"Nowadays, Empress Liu of Yecheng and Zhang Jie are colluding internally and externally, and the government is controlled by Zhang Jie's clan. If you stay here for a long time, it will be 'the man's knife and I'm the fish'. No one in the city is paying attention to you, so go away quickly."

At this moment, there was a sound of orderly footsteps outside the palace gate, and the leader shouted: "King Pengcheng accepts the order."

Shi Zun heard his name being called, but at this moment he was in vain and wanted to escape, but Shi Yun shouted: "King Pengcheng, where are you going?"

Shi Zun only covered his face, but he looked like a child who made a mistake, "Father's life and death are unknown now, and the government has been controlled by Queen Zhang Jackal and Liu after hearing what you said. The person who came here must take my life. If you don't run away now, when will you wait?"

"Alas," Shi Yun sighed, "among the sons of the Shi clan, it is true that King Yan has martial arts, and King Pengcheng has literary virtues. But now that King Yan is dead, we can only count on you, King Pengcheng."

Shi Zun just waved his hands and said: "The same mother and elder brother Shi Sui were deposed, because they were not involved in military affairs, they used to entertain themselves with calligraphy and painting to keep themselves here, who would have imagined that they are now in danger again."

Shi Yun frowned, and said abruptly: "The King of Pengcheng has never done anything wrong, and now he is keeping his own place. I think he didn't want to take your life."

Meng Zhun also said: "Princess Shi Yun is right. Now everyone in the Zhao Kingdom knows that you are the most respectful person among all the scholars. If you leave rashly now, it must be a rebellion. It doesn't matter if you accept it."

Shi Zun looked at the two of them, adjusted his clothes for a while, and went out to receive the order.

I saw that the person who came was wearing Jinxian's two-beam crown on his head, and Jiang court uniform, which was indeed from the Eastern Palace Zhan Shi, but behind him were Longteng guards in five-color fine armor.

Na Donggong Zhan Shixuan said: "Therefore, the abolished prince Xuan's subordinate Liang Du, plotted against the law, and committed chaos... Thanks to the power of the ministers, the destiny has not changed, and the history has returned. There are several signs of ZTE. He specially ordered Shi Zun, the king of Pengcheng, to reward the army. Soldiers, to show that Emperor Zhao favors the generals..."

"King Pengcheng accepts the order."

King Pengcheng took it carefully, and asked: "My father summoned me to ask me something important, but now I haven't seen my father, and my mother and concubine are in the palace, so I will leave first, shall I?"

"King Pengcheng, this is His Majesty's will. He only paused for a moment and then said." Looking at the hall, his eyes were deep, and he continued in a low voice, "This is also the prince's intention. The officials are light-hearted and don't know the depth of it. Just ask Pengcheng King Let's go." After saying that, Zhan Shi of the East Palace left, leaving only the Longteng guards there.

King Pengcheng retreated back into the palace at this time, and hurriedly asked Shi Yun: "Did you hear that, not only the father, but also the crown prince wants to drive me away."

"I know the leader." Shi Yun said lightly.

Now Shi Zun was confused. "Shi Yun, what is the prince's intention at this time?"

"There are also useless people around the prince. Now the government is controlled by Zhang Jackal, and Shi's sons in Yecheng are all held hostage."

Shi Yun only stepped forward and pasted it carefully, his bright eyes were particularly shining at this moment, "It's the intention of Empress Liu Zhang Jie and the prince to drive you away from Yecheng. Heaven has eyes, fortunately you survived, and it is the luck of my Shi clan to save Zhao country."

Shi Zun let out a burst of breath, and said disdainfully: "Then Ran Min is a Han Chinese foster grandson, what do you want him to do?"

"King Pengcheng!" Shi Yun was annoyed, and at this time of peril, Hu Han still had the opinion, "Although he is a foster grandson, he is greatly favored by my Shi family. Why do you say so?"

After speaking, he handed him a letter and said: "I have an old relationship with Ran Min, seeing this, he will definitely keep you safe."

"Boom, boom, boom..." The sound of drums rang in the direction of Yecheng, spreading across thousands of miles.

Shi Zun and Shi Yun also heard it, and Qi Qi looked in the direction of Yecheng.Not long after, Meng Zhun ran over in a panic and said, "At this time, there is a great mourning sound, and now there is only one person who has this regulation."

"Father? To Father!" Shi Zunxin trembled, followed by panic.Then he felt dizzy and couldn't stop sitting down on the bed. "I want to see my father, see my father."

Shi Yun said resolutely: "Shi Zun, now you have to leave, Yecheng is a place of right and wrong, please don't come back."
