The Great Han Dynasty: From Feng Lang Juxu to the Eternal Emperor

Chapter 499: Zhengxi Rebellion
Far away in southern Xinjiang, the South Vietnamese barbarians headed by Zheng Xi also began to take action.

After the defeat in the northwest, the impact on the Han Dynasty will definitely not be in the northwest itself, but will radiate to the barbarians in the southwest, Sichuan, Shu and other places.

In June of the third year of Taichu, Zhengxi announced the complete expulsion of Tian Qianqiu, and at the same time drove out all the Han troops stationed in southern Xinjiang from South Vietnam.

Although Tian Qianqiu was ashamed and angry, without the imperial edict, he could only leave obediently.

The army stationed in southern Xinjiang has not been paid by the court for a long time, which has led to the army in southern Xinjiang often bullying the South Vietnamese people at will.

The combat effectiveness of the Han army stationed in southern Xinjiang has basically been lost. After the financial collapse, the influence was felt in all aspects, and the first one to bear the brunt was the combat effectiveness of the army.

Zhengxi completely drove away Tian Qianqiu and the 50,000 soldiers stationed in South Vietnam on the grounds that the Han army was arrogant and humiliating the people of southern Xinjiang.

At the same time, he also announced that all South Vietnam's finances would be taken into his own hands.

South Vietnam needs to pay a large part of the financial tribute to the Han Dynasty every year. Now the domestic finance of the Han Dynasty is collapsing. If it loses financial support from Southern Xinjiang, it will definitely be even more stretched.

In the palace in southern Xinjiang, Zheng Xi's personal maid did not understand why Zheng Xi took the risk of expelling all the Han troops and officials from South Vietnam.

……

Zheng Xi sat in the palace and silently prayed for Weining.

Zheng Xi narrowed his eyes and said to the little maid beside him: "This king... is saving an old friend."

Zheng Xi felt a little sad. He really didn't expect that the situation in the Han Dynasty would develop in such an uncontrollable direction.

Since Weining no longer took power, the Han's governance of Southern Xinjiang has become increasingly chaotic. However, Tian Qianqiu himself is very capable and can barely stabilize the situation in Southern Xinjiang.

"If anything happens to me in the future, you in the northwest will be my only retreat."

Only when mother and son go to the northwest can Weining have no worries.

Tian Qianqiu is from Weining. Of course he hopes that Weining can return to power, so he asked Zhengxi to cooperate with him in such a scene.

The old friend he mentioned was naturally the Han crown prince Wei Ning. Tian Qianqiu had told Zheng Xi about Wei Ning's current situation, so he hoped that Zheng Xi would cooperate with him in a play to put pressure on the court.

It was said to be an act, but in fact it was a fake act. Zhengxi's doing this was tantamount to making enemies with the big man.

"Would it be dangerous?"

Qin Chuan knew that Wei Ning could not transfer him to a bitter and cold place on the frontier for no reason, so he asked, "Ning'er, what are you going to do?"

Hope he can take control of the situation!

Outside the south city of Chang'an, Weining bid farewell to Qin Chuan in person and warned: "Father-in-law, please develop well in the northwest."

Wei Ning was silent for a while, then narrowed his eyes and said to Qin Chuan: "Father-in-law, you also know that the situation in Chang'an is not very optimistic now. I am looking for a way out for myself."

He has now begun to believe that the final years of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will most likely happen to him!

Qin Chuan was stunned. He knew that Weining's situation was not very good now, but he never expected that it had reached such a serious point.

Weining nodded and said, "Yes, it will be very dangerous, even life and death."

But it doesn't matter, only in this way can Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sense the crisis in all aspects of the empire, and use external forces to force Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to let Weining return to power.

Wei Ning is obviously the crown prince appointed by the Emperor of Han Dynasty, why did the trouble come to such an extent?

"When I have time, I will ask Ziyu to take Liu Ju to stay in the northwest temporarily."

According to current trends, it won't be long before a major witchcraft case occurs.

In this major case, his whole family was affected, Wei Zifu committed suicide, and all the power of the Wei family disappeared.

Before this, Weining always felt that he had eliminated these potential dangers. After all, the initiators of the witchcraft disaster, such as Jiang Chong, Su Wen, Han Shuo and others, had all been killed by him.

But now he understands that these people are not the key to the witchcraft disaster. The source of the witchcraft disaster lies with Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty! The temperament and physical condition of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty seemed to be developing in this direction!

Weining had to pay attention.

Qin Chuan nodded heavily and said, "I understand, I will settle down in the northwest as soon as possible."

"Be careful with yourself too!"

Wei Ning nodded and said: "Okay! My father-in-law, I won't send you off. Take care of yourself along the way."

"Ok!"

After Qin Chuan left, Weining returned to the East Palace with his hands behind his back.

Qin Ziyu had already guessed what Wei Ning wanted to do, and was waiting for Wei Ning's return in the middle hall. When he saw Wei Ning coming back, he asked Wei Ning: "Ms. sir, are you going to transfer my father to the northwest now?" Are you still planning to let me go there with you?"

"I don't want to leave you. I will definitely stay by your husband's side and face any risks together!"

Wei Ning sighed, took Qin Ziyu into his arms, and said to her, "Ziyu, I've been sorry to you all these years."

Qin Ziyu shook his head.

Wei Ning said: "I put all my thoughts and energy on the development of Dahan."

"Although we destroyed the Huns, the country is still very weak. I will try my best to make this country rich and strong."

"I believe I have done it, but unfortunately, everything I have done can be undone in just one thought from your Majesty."

"The future is going to be dangerous, you should have felt it by now."

"I know what you are thinking. When you have the opportunity, you must go to the northwest and take Liu Zhi with you."

"Don't let me have any worries in Chang'an. If I solve everything in Chang'an, I will take you back."

"If not, just live in seclusion with our bloodline and live well."

Qin Ziyu's eyes were a little red. He looked up at Wei Ning and said, "Is it serious enough?"

Wei Ning sighed deeply and said to Qin Ziyu: "Liu Huan has been sealed as King of Jiaodong."

"The next step should be to make him the Crown Prince."

"I can't understand His Majesty's decisions more and more, and there are no rules to follow. This shows that His Majesty's condition is getting more and more serious."

"Liu Huan was crowned King of Jiaodong. This is an obvious political signal, enough to make a large group of civil servants outside favor Liu Huan."

"I have lost all my connections in the officialdom, and all the good officials have been manipulated by His Majesty."

Listening to Wei Ning's analysis of the situation, Qin Ziyu's tears slowly fell, and he said resolutely to Wei Ning: "Then everything will be subject to your father-in-law's arrangement!"

"But my husband also has to promise me something."

Wei Ning asked suspiciously: "What's the matter?"

Qin Ziyu said: "No matter what...be safe! Nothing will happen!"

Wei Ning smiled, patted Qin Ziyu on the shoulder, and said firmly: "Don't worry, although the situation is not good for me now, I have never been a soft persimmon who can be manipulated by others. I have already made plans, and the world is still uncertain. , it’s still unclear who will win and who will lose!”

Qin Ziyu nodded heavily and said, "Yes!"

……

In Weiyang Palace, the knight from southern Xinjiang quickly entered the palace with a very solemn expression!
