Eastern Jin Dynasty: My powerful father

Chapter 195 Please go to Chang'an

Watching the beautiful woman in front of him announcing her family status, Liu Yan was surprised.

When he first received the news, he thought it was a scout sent by the State of Yu, so he hurriedly came to capture the prisoners. Unexpectedly, he caught a big fish.

Liu Yan frowned. If the woman in front of him was really the Queen of the King and the sister of the Emperor of Yan, it would be really troublesome.

Now that the State of Yan was at war with Chu and Liang, if he let her go, wouldn't he be showing his favor to the State of Yan?

If this matter reaches Huan Xi's ears, the consequences can be imagined.

As Huan Xi's strength became stronger, especially after he captured Liangzhou and subdued Xianbei in Hexi Province, Liu Wuhuan and Liu Yanhoutou served Huan Xi and became more and more obedient.

However, if the people were not released, although the Yan State was far away in Hebei, it was impossible to cross the Dai State to attack the Tiefu Xiongnu. However, Murong Ying was also the queen of the Dai State, and Liu Yan was also worried about offending Tuoba Shiyiqian and provoking the Tiefu Xiongnu. Dai's army.

Therefore, the beautiful woman in front of her is simply a hot potato that cannot be caught or released.

Liu Yanfutou felt regretful, why did you happen to encounter such a thing in the middle of the night?

They were just arresting scouts, but why did they accidentally surround the eldest princess of Yan and the queen on behalf of the king?

Murong Ying protected Tuoba Shi and Tuoba Han behind her and stared nervously at Liu Yan's head. She knew that her fate was now in the hands of the man in front of her.

After a long time, Liu Kuantou said:

"This is just your one-sided statement. How can I trust it so easily? Why don't you stay as a guest in Tiefu Xiongnu for the time being and wait until I find out your identity before we talk about whether you want to stay or leave?"

As he said that, Liu Yantou did not forget to identify himself:

"I am Liu Yan, the right virtuous king of the Xiongnu under the command of the Great Danyu. If my wife is really the acting queen, we are also relatives. Madam, please rest assured that no one will dare to offend my wife."

The reason why they are said to be relatives is because Liu Wuhuan, the elder brother of Liu Yan, married Tuoba Shiyijian's daughter. Therefore, Murong Ying is also his sister-in-law's aunt.

However, this level of kinship is like window paper, which can be broken with a poke, so how can Murong Ying feel at ease.

Now, Liu Bangtou had to wait to find out the information before making a decision, and Murong Ying no longer hid it from him. After all, this place was not far from Shengle, and Liu Yantou would know the specific information soon.

Murong Ying said frankly:

"There was civil strife in the country of Dai. King Tuoba Shi killed his father and seized power. We, mother and son, were forced by him and had no choice but to escape from Shengle.

"If King Zuo Xian can be noble and allow our mother and son to pass, when I return to the Yan Kingdom and borrow troops to quell the rebellion, I will definitely not forget King Zuo Xian's kindness.

"I would like to offer 50,000 cattle and sheep, a hundred catties of gold and silver, and 5,000 fine horses as a ransom.

"Daiguo and Youxian Wang will always be a good alliance."

In order to be able to escape, Murong Ying also spent a lot of money on the promised reward. In order to form an alliance with Huan Xi, Tuyuhun only offered 5,000 horses and 100 catties of gold and silver. Murong Ying was even willing to pay 50,000 more. Cow and sheep.

Of course Liu Yanhoutou knew who the son of Lord Tuoba Shijun, the southern lord of Dai Kingdom, was.

Hearing that Tuoba Shiyiqian was killed by his son, Liu Yan could not hide his surprise.

However, in the face of Murong Yan's inducements, he remained unmoved. This reward comes with a life and a life spent. If it really makes Huan Xi feel resentful, it will really outweigh the gains.

Besides, now that Tuoba Shiyiqian is dead, Murong Ying's problem can be easily solved.

Liu Yantou breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:

"Thank you, Madam, for telling me frankly, but the State of Yan is at war with Liang and Chu, and it is not my decision whether Madam will stay or go.

"Now Mr. Liang is meeting with Xianbei in Hexi. After I find out his wife's identity, I will invite her to Chang'an to wait for Mr. Liang's decision."

Murong Ying was shocked and went to Chang'an by herself. There was no possibility of returning to the Yan Kingdom.

But now we are besieged here by the Tiefu Xiongnu. We are slaves and we are fish and meat. How can we allow her to refuse?

Thinking about it carefully, it would be better to fall into the hands of Huan Xi than to be captured by Tuoba Shijun.

After all, if they go to Chang'an, their two sons might still have a chance to survive, but if they go back to Shengle, they will definitely die.

Murong Yingqiang smiled and said:

"When King Dai was still alive, he often mentioned to us, mother and son, that Duke Liang was a hero of the world. Although Yan and Liang are now at odds with each other, he could still tell right from wrong and would not vent his anger on orphans and widowers, causing the world to criticize him."

Liu Yan looked at Murong Ying's beautiful face and thought to himself:

Naturally, Mr. Liang would not be angry with you orphans and widowers, but he would still love his wife well.

Since Zhang Tianxi's mother Liu Meiren and Zhang Xuanliang's mother Guo Jiang were only outsiders, the father-son relationship between Huan Xi and their uncles and nephews was not known to outsiders.

Therefore, Xiao Huan Gong's reputation as a good father did not spread.

But Liu Kuantou knew one thing clearly. The Liang Gong loved widows with high status the most. This was not a secret in Guanzhong.

Murong Ying married to Dai Guo at the age of fifteen, and is now only twenty-six years old. Although she has two sons, she is still in her prime years.

At this age, with such appearance, and with such status, going to Chang'an is like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.

Just as Liu Bangtou said before, no one dares to offend Murong Ying. This is the forbidden love that is dedicated to Xiao Huan Gong, and no one dares to overstep his authority.

The next day, August 354th, the tenth year of Yonghe (AD ), was destined to be an extraordinary day.

Tuoba Shijun, who had been searching for his aunt and brother to no avail, took the throne in Shengle Palace.

Tuoba Jin, who encouraged him to rebel, also received his due reward. His son succeeded his father and became the northern leader of the Dai Kingdom. Tuoba Shijun declared to the outside world that it was Murong Ying, Tuoba Shi, and Tuoba Han's mother and son who attacked and killed Tuoba Shiyijian, and Sun Jin, the assistant minister, died protecting the master.

However, such lies that confuse right and wrong can only deceive oneself and others.

Tuoba Shiyiqian had been the acting king for seventeen years, and there were always some loyal ministers and confidants. These people resented Tuoba Shiyijian in their hearts, but because of his strong military power, they had to surrender against their will and stay dormant for the time being.

Once Lord Tuoba Shi shows his weakness, he will definitely attack in groups.

Shengle and Yanmen Pass are more than five hundred miles apart. Two days are enough for Yu Guo to send the news back.

Fu Jian, who had not been seen for a long time, finally appeared in front of people, and the 50,000 horsemen were also ready to go.

King Tuoba Shi killed his father to seize the throne, and the people of Dai were unstable. This was undoubtedly the best time for the Fu family to attack Dai.

Fu Jian took Pingchang King Fu Jing as the vanguard and commanded 20,000 elite cavalry. He ordered him to march for more than 500 miles within two days and besiege Shengle. Fu Jian would lead the infantry to follow.

Outside Yanmen Pass, Fu Jian saw off Pingchang King Fu Jing and said seriously:

"Yuan Cai (Fu Xiong) has abandoned me, and now among the clan, your talents are the most outstanding.

"If things don't work out, you will die in Shengle, and I will die in Yumen, and we will never see each other again."

Fu Jing is the nephew of Fu Jian and the grandson of Fu Hong. His father was brutally killed by Shi Hu because of his outstanding talent.

In the original time and space, Fu Jian was able to enter the Guanzhong, and Fu Xiong, Fu Jing, and Fu Qian were indispensable.

Now Fu Chang and Fu Xiong have passed away one after another, Fu Sheng is in Jinyang to supervise the country again, and Fu Jian was only seventeen years old when he first entered the battlefield.

Therefore, the only clan general who could be entrusted with the important task of vanguard was Fu Jing.

Fu Jing said seriously:

"Wei Chen will never disappoint His Majesty's expectations."

Fu Jian held Fu Jing's hand and said with emotion:

"Jing'er, take care!"

Fu Jing said goodbye to her uncle and led 20,000 fine cavalry to gallop north.

When Liu Anhutou learned that Fu Jian sent troops to represent the country, he finally felt relieved. Of course, this is something to say later.

In fact, it was not just the Yu State who chose August 17th to send troops.

Outside Xincheng County, Huan Wen led the Chu and Liang coalition forces northward and sent troops to Luoyang.

As the saying goes, soldiers know generals, and generals know soldiers. As the commander of the coalition forces, Huan Wen also needed to have a general understanding of the 30,000 soldiers of the Liang Kingdom in order to make reasonable arrangements on the battlefield.

Huan Wen also took the opportunity to rest and recuperate in Xincheng County to get acquainted with the soldiers of the Liang Kingdom.

Among them, apart from Wang Meng, Deng Qiang surprised Huan Wen the most.

Due to stereotypes, Huan Wen didn't have a good impression of Deng Qiang at first.

In Huan Wen's eyes, Deng Qiang, who offered Han Yan to Huan Xi, was a flatterer and a lucky person.

However, when he actually discussed military affairs with Deng Qiang, Huan Wen was quickly impressed by his talent.

It also made Huan Wen consider recruiting Deng Qiang under his command after Wang Meng.

Deng Qiang's ability was enough to entrust him with important tasks, and he was willing to put down his dignity and offer beautiful women to his lord regardless of reputation or reputation.

Among such subordinates, not only Huan Xi believed in love, but Huan Wen also coveted him.

But just like Wang Meng, Deng Qiang also politely declined Huan Wen's solicitation, which made Huan Wen quite frustrated.

Huan Wen had many generals under his command, but when it came to commanding troops in battle, no one could compare with Deng Qiang.

However, besides Wang Meng and Deng Qiang, Huan Xi also had Xie Ai. When it came to the quality of his talents, he was obviously far superior to Huan Wen's generals.

Of course, Liang Guo sent Wang Meng and Deng Qiang to assist Huan Wen in the Northern Expedition. Even if they faced Murong Ke and Murong Chui, they would not be at a disadvantage. This was destined to be a well-matched battle.

Huan Wen and Wang Meng went north, and Murong Ke had been waiting for them for a long time.

From Xincheng County to Luoyang, you must pass through Yique Pass. Yique Pass, one of the eight passes in Luoyang, is located here. However, Murong Ke only sent some soldiers to garrison and told the garrison that there was no need to hold on, as long as he weakened the enemy's spirit. Return to Luoyang.

This move was naturally to allow the Chu and Liang coalition forces to march straight in and fight Huan Wen and Wang Meng at the foot of Luoyang City.

Also on August 17, Liu Yantou confirmed the news of the civil strife in Dai Dynasty and the escape of the queen and the two princes Tuoba Shi and Tuoba Han. He finally believed in Murong Ying's identity and sent someone to send their mother and son away. Go to Chang'an.

At the same time, in Liangzhou and Guzang, after spending two days enjoying the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the alliance ceremony that Huan Xi had prepared for a long time finally kicked off.

On the Lingjun platform, which is more than ten meters high, guests gathered, including heads of various ministries, envoys from various countries, Liangzhou officials, and Liangjun generals.

While everyone was waiting eagerly, a carriage escorted by five thousand lances slowly drove towards the Lingjun Terrace.
