Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 578 The First Victory of Zhenguan in 22 Years
Zhong Tianzhu.

In the tenth year of Zhenguan, Monk Xuanzang went to his place and obtained more than [-] Sanskrit scriptures.

Shiluo Yiduo became king in the 15th year of Zhenguan, and he called himself the king of Magadha.

In the same year, Shi Luo Yi sent envoys to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty. The Emperor Zhenguan sent Li Yibiao, Wei Weicheng, and Xuance, the former Huangshui Ling Wang of Rongzhou, as the deputy envoy to give condolences and seals. Shi Luo Yi sent fire beads, tulips, and bodhi trees as tribute.

In the 21st year of Zhenguan, the Tang Dynasty took Prince Zuowei as the main envoy and Jiang Shiren as the deputy envoy, and led more than [-] cavalry to Tianzhu.

Among the five Tianzhu, the four Tianzhu sent envoys to show their obedience.

Luo Yiduo, the corpse of Zhongtianzhu, died, and the country was in chaos. His minister Nafudi Alonashun usurped the throne and stood on his own. Driven by greed for profit, he sent all his troops to attack Wang Xuance and his party.

There was a great disparity between the crowd and the widows, Wang Xuance led more than [-] cavalry to resist with all their strength, but they ran out of arrows and were all captured.

Note that he was captured, not killed.

What Emperor Fudi Alona wanted by the way was the property tributed by the Four Tianzhu, not the death feud with the legendary powerful Tang Dynasty!

It can only be said that Nafudi Alonashun is not the material of an emperor, his eyelids are shallow, and he only sees that little thing.

It can't be said that Nafudi Alonashun had no plans at all, what he relied on was that the distance between the two countries was too far away, and if he didn't anger Datang too much, it is expected that Datang would not send troops to fight.

Therefore, the supervision of Wang Xuance and his party was loose, except for the weapons, the seals and ribbons were not moved at all.

Wang Xuance and others escaped at night and returned to Chang'an shamelessly. They went to Tubo to borrow [-] troops and [-] Nibala cavalry, and marched into Chapo and Luocheng in Central Tianzhu.

When Nibhara sent troops, he could probably be regarded as the predecessor of the Gurkha mercenaries.

The country of Nibala is not big, but its fighting power is fierce. This is the main reason why Songtsan Gampo deliberately married the Nibala princess Pogong Dongsa Chizun.

Within three days, the city was broken, more than [-] people were beheaded, and more than [-] people were drowned. Nafudi Alona fled from the city and was captured alive by Jiang Shiren.

In this battle, more than [-] men and women were captured, and more than [-] cattle and horses were captured. Tianzhu was shocked.

Wang Xuance escorted Navodi Alona back to Chang'an, and brought Naer Sapomei, a alchemist from Central Tianzhu, to the Taimiao on the first day of the 22nd year of Zhenguan.

Since then, Wang Xuance became the second envoy of the Tang Dynasty to destroy the enemy country alone, and he was granted the title of doctor of Chaosan under the fifth rank.

The first one was An Xinggui, who single-handedly took down Li Gui, the puppet King of Liang who ruled in Hexi, and An Xinggui, who was granted the title of Duke of Liang.

The reason why the reward was not high was because Wang Xuance was only one of the five Tianzhus who had been destroyed, and could not be included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty.

The merit is achieved, but it is not the expansion of territory.

Another reason is that Nafudi Alonashun's soldiers and horses are indeed a mob with extremely weak combat power.

Naer Suopomei claimed to be [-] years old and was proficient in the art of immortality. The emperor placed him in the built-in hall of Jinbiao Gate, and ordered Cui Dunli, Minister of the Ministry of War, to supervise him and distribute medicine stones from all over the world for him.

The location of the Jin Biao Gate has not been verified. We only know that there is a Jin Guang Gate in Chang'an City.

Fan Zheng felt like he was stuck in his throat. He almost opened his mouth to speak, but Cheng Yaojin stared back.

It wasn't until he retired from the imperial court that Cheng Chumo, the Zhonglang general of Zuowei's family, quietly led Fan Zheng to a remote house. The smell of antique soup in the house, and the smell of a large amount of beef confirmed the identity of the old man in the house.

"Why did Mr. Lu come here to eat alone? Are you afraid Mrs. Lu will talk about it?"

Fan Zheng laughed and sat at another table.

One antique soup per person, even the later generations like this way of eating, you can eat whatever you want, hot and comfortable.

Cheng Yaojin swallowed a mouthful of beef, and drank a bottle of Xinghuacun in one gulp, feeling a little depressed: "Ms. Moti, you are not a coward."

Hey, the lawless and incompetent demon king has become an ear-scratcher, nagging even after drinking, it's really helpless.

The original partner, Mrs. Sun, was caring, no matter how much Lao Cheng drank, he would always smile and warm him up.

In a trance, Mrs. Sun has passed away for nineteen years!

Cheng Chumo sat next to him happily, sipping fine wine and chewing beef, with a gloating smile along the way.

After taking a sip of the hot soup and chewing a piece of beef the size of a baby's fist, Fan Zheng gave a thumbs up.

Cheng Yaojin is the only one who can unscrupulously slaughter yellow cattle for food.

After eating and drinking enough, Cheng Yaojin patted his belly loudly, and squinted at Fan Zheng: "I'm sorry, do you want to persuade Your Majesty to stay away from Tianzhu alchemists and not to use golden pills indiscriminately?"

Fan Zheng put the chopsticks on, raised his eyebrows and said, "Throughout the ages, there have been many emperors who died after taking pills."

Cheng Yaojin snorted: "Guapi, did His Majesty tell him to make alchemy?"

Uh, considering word for word, there is really no evidence.

Alchemy and pharmaceuticals, although somewhat similar, have significant differences.

Cheng Yaojin tore off his robe, revealing a bowl-sized scar on his abdomen. Even though healed up long ago, his appearance was still ferocious.

"When we fight on the battlefield, which one is not full of pain! Your Majesty's battle at Mang Mountain was extremely dangerous, and it was thanks to Qiu Xinggong that he was able to return to the camp."

"Otherwise, Qiu Xinggong, who has long been dismissed from his official position, can be used again?"

It has become the norm for Qiu Xinggong to be dismissed from office and reinstated in ten months.

Tell Qiu Xinggong casually, anyway, Mangshan's achievements are destined to be eaten for a lifetime.

This is also the reason why Qiu Xinggong doesn't care about Fan Zheng's accusation. Anyway, he is used to it and it won't cause any harm.

"Don't expect this monk to prolong your Majesty's life, even if you stop the pain temporarily, it will be of great merit."

Fan Zheng understood that what the old thieves meant was to let him mind his own business, anyway, the emperor was already in a hurry to go to the doctor.

Just like the rural people in later generations, knowing that eating too much headache powder is not good, why don’t they take a sachet when they feel uncomfortable?
Why?

Helpless!
Even ordinary people, to the point where medical workers say "eat whatever you want", even if your education level is not low, even if you know that the talisman water of the person in front of you has never worked, you will definitely drink it without hesitation. I don't care how many talisman paper ashes are left.

Both the Shang Yao Bureau and the Imperial Medical Office expressed their inability to do anything, and Xu Jingzong and others were also at a loss.

Xu Jingzong blamed himself deeply for this. Of course, why didn't he refine his medical skills?

If you have the power to return to heaven, why don't you let yourself pick what Zhongshuling, Shizhong, and Shangshupushe?

Seeing the emperor's slightly inconvenient appearance, Fan Zheng guessed that in addition to the pain, Li's ancestral wind disease also occurred.

Rheumatism can be mild or severe, some cannot take care of themselves, and some have slight inconvenience.

The best proof is that Emperor Zhenguan seldom eats desserts.

It's no wonder that the officials who always like to advise have fallen into silence one after another.

Cheng Yaojin took the sweat towel that was silently handed over during the process, and wiped his big mouth: "From now on, restrain your style, keep your mouth shut, and be tactful even if you want to speak."

"Also, it's not suitable for you to go back to the mansion, burn incense and so on."

Fan Zheng crossed his hands and remained silent.

He could roughly understand what Cheng Yaojin said. Emperor Zhenguan was suffering from illness, and his temper must have become much more irritable, which could not be measured by common sense.

What should I do if I offend the emperor, and then get fueled by others, and be executed directly in court?
Even if the emperor's conscience hurts afterwards and the edict is issued, so what?

Can a lost head grow back?

As for not burning incense, uh, because both Buddhism and Taoism fasted on eating beef, and burning incense after eating beef would cause the gods and Buddhas to get angry.
