    Chapter 113: Killing (Part 1) Zhu Dian only stayed in Luoyang for one night and left the next day.  There is no need to stay in Luoyang anymore. I got Webster's reply and expressed my love for the princess, which achieved my goal.  There are many people who want to make friends, and some people are waiting and watching. Unlike Lingzhou, this place is under the eyes of the emperor, so they hesitated.  They were all shocked when they heard that Zhu Tong left immediately.  But this added another barrel of fuel to the fierce battle in the court.  There are not many people who can sense that the country is about to undergo major changes. Except for some true confidants, there are no more than five people who can sense it intuitively.  It¡¯s not that the ministers are devoid of wisdom, it¡¯s that since ancient times, the queen who dared to murder the emperor has not been found even after reading almost all the history books.  Even though Emperor Hui of Jin was like this, Jia Nanfeng only killed the prince and did not dare to poison her husband.  It is the death of Li Zhi, and there are many rumors from the outside world.  But these ministers knew clearly that someone was deliberately trying to discredit Wu Zetian. In fact, Li Zhi really died of illness.  Li had been treating the disease for more than ten years, and Wu Zetian almost covered the court with one hand. Moreover, she was cruel and decisive, even worse than Webster, and she did not dare to attack the imperial husband.  Besides, it's Webster.  Therefore, seeing the emperor begin to "awaken", they cheered up one by one and began to fight against the Wei Party.  This is good, but Wei Dang does not necessarily have no talent, and Qingliu does not necessarily have talent.  Equally good and bad.  Some people see farther and see more things.  Some just followed behind to join in the fun.  "Everything Wei Dang agrees with immediately opposes it.  Whatever Wei Dang objects to, he immediately agrees to it.  As a result, court affairs cannot be adjudicated even more, and official documents from three provinces and six ministries have piled up, making the situation worse.  On the morning of the third day, Zhang Jiuling and Yan Tingzhi looked at each other when they saw the ministers starting to quarrel again.  They were thinking about what Zhu Tong said to them the night before: "Zhang Langjun, Yan Langjun, you don't believe what I say. Mr. Wang is your uncle, and you don't believe it either. It doesn't matter. The three Zhuge brothers have their own plans."  The three masters have been passed down as history. But remember what Mr. Wang said, being loyal is like being traitorous, and being traitorous is like being loyal. When you get to the court, open your eyes and see that the so-called Qingliu is trying to please his master.  Are you seeking promotion and wealth, or are you really thinking about the country and doing practical things?" Seeing the situation in the court, both of them looked a little sad.  But because of Wang Hua, they didn¡¯t dare to interrupt in the first place, and they didn¡¯t want to get involved this time.  At this moment, Dou Congyi stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I have this memorial." "Come here," Li Xian said weakly.  "The day before yesterday, Wang Hua sent his staff Zhu Tong to Luoyang with grand gifts to present to His Majesty and propose to the princess. Now Wang Hua has nearly 100,000 soldiers in Lingzhou, and there are more than one million people in the land of 23 states.  , seems to be disconnected from the imperial court, and sincerely is a serious illness for the country. In my opinion, it is better to let him get his wish, marry the princess, in order to attract the imperial court, and let him and his elite soldiers return to the embrace of the imperial court.  It¡¯s a top priority.¡± Judging from the appearance, Wang Hua is very sincere this time.  The ninety-nine exquisite inkstones symbolize eternity.  None of these inkstones are of extraordinary quality. The lowest ones on the market are worth nearly a hundred guan, and the high ones are worth nearly a thousand guan.  Even with such a high price, it is the same as a Zhuge pen in Xuanzhou worth ten gold (approximately eighty gold), so it is still valuable but has no market.  The total price of these boxes of inkstones exceeds 10,000 yuan.  What other perfumes are there? Even though they don¡¯t take up much space, the price may be higher than an inkstone. ????????????????????????? Back to Shushu, with exquisite craftsmanship and great food, the first place in the Tang Dynasty was Liangzhou, and the second place was Taiyuan.  However, after some enlightenment from Wang Hua's masterful hands, the technique of Gushu is now vaguely on par with Dashi.  Of course, it¡¯s not that there is no market for Dashigusu. It¡¯s an exotic style, just like Dashi pottery. It¡¯s obviously not as good as the porcelain of the Tang Dynasty, but people from the Tang Dynasty still spent money to buy it and enjoy it.  Later, when Wang Hua went to the northwest, Huizhou, Shanzhou and Lanzhou were not far from Liangzhou. They already had the basis for making Gushu, so Wang Hua gave some advice again.  Lingzhou Yusu came from behind and now has a reputation similar to that of Taiyuan Liangzhou. It is also a key profit-making project in the Twenty-three Prefectures.  This time Wang Hua brought dozens of carts, all of which were high-quality goods, and the total price would reach tens of thousands of dollars.  But this time Wang Hua had his own intention. This move was for advertising.  The wool comes from the sheep.  Turning to horses, not to mention the price of two thousand excellent war horses, even these old and injured horses in Luoyang cost no less than ten yuan, and the total price reached more than 200,000 yuan.  But compared with the dozens of carts of gemstones, corals and high-end glass products, it may still be far behind, especially the two carts of gemstones, which are all precious rubies, sapphires and emeralds, as well as colorful gems with bright colors (  Opal), or even?Saw several large pieces of chalcedony.  This is a request for Li Guoer. If he is begging for other people, whether it is Guanzhong Siwang or seven surnames and ten families, to pile these betrothal gifts at the door, the patriarchs of these families can call out all the unengaged girls in the family.  Take your pick.  This time the total cost is nearly 800,000 yuan.  Li Hong once complained about Wang Hua for this, and Wang Hua said: "If it were not so polite, Webster would be suspicious." Although he spent a lot of money, it was still insignificant compared to the court's "pension".  Besides, Wang Hua is not short of money now. The finances of the twenty-three states are gradually balancing. As for the benefits brought by Oceania, Wang Hua dare not speak out for fear of jealousy.  Even if it costs a lot of money, it is not a lot of money compared to the impact on the national destiny.  In fact, Li Hong has not understood that although Oceania is developing rapidly, its main export target is still the Tang Dynasty. It has not yet started to act independently, and it is still a dodder.  After Dou Cong finished speaking, the court fell silent.  No matter how they fight, Wang Hua's placement has become a taboo in Qingliu Zhuoliu's heart.  Even Qingliu didn¡¯t dare to do what he did before, with two ordinary people. After all, the reason why Wang Hua fled to the northwest was mainly caused by Wei Shi¡¯s murder of him.  But there is another reason. Because of Wu Zetian's three-year contract, she never married Li Guo'er.  Otherwise, once he becomes Li Guoer's real husband, Wei Shi will have some room to spare. Even when Zong Chuke and the Wei family wanted to frame Wang Hua, they would have the same scruples, and things would not have turned to the worst. ????????????? It turns out that the objection was because of the court¡¯s face, not the alliance under the city. If the princess were to be married off, the country¡¯s face would be lost to Java.  Now that the peace treaty was concluded, Wang Hua accepted the imperial order, the racecourse was returned, and the officials successfully entered the twenty-three states. With the cooperation of Zhang Shuo and others, they took up their posts one by one. Zhang Shuo even reported back that if  The imperial court "subsidized" the cost, and Wang Huahui handed over some of the weapons and artillery to the imperial court.  Just because the technology is not yet mature, the number of twenty-three states itself is insufficient, and it will be until the year after next.  All in all, this is a good development.  Otherwise, Wang Hua would definitely not agree to give up part of this kind of killing weapon to the imperial court.  "Besides, he also has reasons. The Tubo people have not been conquered yet, and the princess has not been brought back, so he himself needs a lot of weapons.  Therefore, the conditions are ripe for marrying the princess at this time. Even if you want to object, you can't.  "Besides, even Qingliu knew that he couldn't afford to offend Wang Hua at this time.  Such a powerful force is sitting on the sidelines now, but if he falls to one side, that side will immediately add an extremely heavy weight.  Even if Wang Hua intends to support Li Chongfu, Li Chongfu will be able to join this competition and become a powerful character.  ¡°But everything¡¯s spirit is still deep in the bones.  If it is proposed by their own side, they will naturally support it strongly.  When Dou Cong brought it up, these people were unhappy.  For a few people, another reason is that Li Chiying now in Lingzhou heard that the blood camp intends to promote her as the mistress. Once Li Guoer and Wang Hua get married, this will become an inevitable variable.  Still supporting it, why not? He immediately sent an imperial envoy to inquire. If Wang Hua agrees, most of the mansion in Luoyang belongs to the princess. The court will spend money to renovate it and turn it into the Prince Consort's Mansion, allowing Wang Hua to come to Beijing to get married.  ????????????????????????????????????????:  When he arrived in Luoyang, he was nothing. He might become a piece of meat on the chopping board and be slaughtered by others. Can he return to Luoyang to get married?  But it must be done according to the rules.  Dou Congyi had nothing to say.  He sat down and fell silent, and the matter ended as efficiently as before.  Later, when Li Dan learned about this, he regretted it.  Li Longji found two good helpers, Wang Maozhong and Li Yide, and Princess Taiping's two sons, Xue Chongxun and Xue Chongjian. With Gao Lishi's secret matchmaking, he reconnected with a group of low-level generals of the Yulin Army.  But this time it was done very secretly. They happened to meet each other tacitly, and then they drank and had sex together, or competed in skills.  Wang Maozhong and Li Yide are both enemies of a hundred people. According to Wang Hua, they are martial arts masters, and their skills are not inferior to Hui Fan, the demon monk who was killed by Wang Hua.  The abilities of the two men immediately aroused the admiration of these generals.  But these two people are very good at doing things. For example, when they met for archery, they deliberately tied with these people. Everyone carried the sedan chair. After comparing their skills, they went to drink. After drinking, they started to talk nonsense. You are Li Guang. I  It was Ma Chao, but no one had the eyesight to recognize him, so he was buried.  It made the girl who was accompanying the drink blush.  And then generously pay for them.  Because the faces of these two people are very strange, although they are familiar with Taiping and Fair??Precaution, but not as serious as Li Dan and his son.  Everyone thought that Wang and Li were disciples of Princess Taiping. In addition, they were all dandies, so even though someone noticed them, they immediately let them go.  ¡°As a result, some grassroots generals were gradually captured.  This gave Li Dan and Princess Taiping a glimmer of hope, but their original strength was weakened and their strength in the Yulin Army was still very weak.  Moreover, these people may not be reliable. They are willing to accompany you while drinking flowers and wine, but if they are willing to achieve great things with you, they may not necessarily sacrifice their lives.  Of course, as soon as Wang Hua intervenes and feels confident, these Yulin Army generals will immediately change their attitude.  So Li Dan needs time.  He could tell at a glance what kind of drama Wei Shi was singing, and he took advantage of the contradictions in the court to prevent the princess from getting married, and then showed his attitude to Wang Hua.  ¡°If I had known this earlier, why not instruct everyone to agree to see what this sister-in-law would do and whether she would marry Li Guoer to Lingzhou.  Webster achieved this effect and got his wish.  She immediately sent someone to Lingzhou to tell Wang Hua about the matter, and promised again that by the end of this year, she would overcome the opposition of the ministers and marry Guoerxia to him.  Then he said something more explicit: "Not only are you getting married, but after a hundred years, your majesty will hand over the country to Guo'er to govern. With your great talent, you will be Guo'er's right hand. After these things, you will  Guo'er still misses her, which makes Gu regretful and touched. The most happy thing is Jun's feelings for Guo'er. Seeing this, Gu also feels relieved. "Wang Hua said the same thing, don't be polite, you said.  To discuss marriage, I gave you so many things. Now it's your turn. I won't believe it until you marry Guo'er.  After receiving Wang Hua's reply, Wei Shi did not get angry because of Wang Hua's toughness, but instead found Li Xian.  The two sat down and talked about Li Guoer.  Li Xian also agreed with Li Guoer's marriage to Wang Hua. Since Wang Hua valued his daughter so much, his daughter could tie up Wang Hua's fierce horse a little and prevent him from running too far.  But as soon as his wife opened her mouth, Li Xian felt suspicious. He didn't know what his wife was planning, so he remained silent.  So Weishi sent someone to Lingzhou again to tell Wang Hua. He had talked with his majesty and tried to persuade him, but his majesty did not speak.  Or do you have any good ideas?  These two calculations of Webster's were very accurate, and the speculation on people's hearts reached the extreme. In this way, if Wang Hua wants to blame, he can just blame Li Dan and others' men, or blame Li Xian.  This also laid the foundation for the next plan.  But her fate was unlucky, but Wang Hua knew how Li Xian died in history, and how she betrayed the blood camp regardless of the country. He also heard from her own words that the swords and arrows on the Tianjin Bridge were those she sent to teach them.  Made.  So no matter how Wang Hua arranges it, she is a mortal character.  All her little cleverness is playing the piano to others.  Wang Hua continued to pretend to be stupid and crazy, and said, if I have any good ideas, I can let me go to Luoyang.  Don't tell me that I will be safe and sound when I get to Luoyang.  After finishing speaking, he took out the two death-free gold medals and placed them in front of the eunuch.  The eunuch had no choice but to leave again. Although Webster sent people to come here twice and did not hear Wang Hua's accurate reply, it was different from the first time. These two times were very high-profile, and almost everyone knew about it.  Similarly, Webster also achieved his goal, but Wang Hua did not support it. Because of these two comings and goings, others would think that Wang Hua and Webster had made some kind of deal.  At least she had this potential influence within her grasp.  At the end of winter, when the second group of people returned to Luoyang, another person also arrived in the capital.  Song Jing just arrived in Qinzhou, and many people were very suspicious.  Of course, the ability of the Song Dynasty to amass money is definitely not as good as that of Wang Hua. Wang Hua is not only amassing money, but mainly also opening up sources of income. The two are combined, and then the money rolls into money and turns into a snowball. With money in hand, it is easier to do things.  But Song Dynasty has the specialty of Song Dynasty, which is honest government and caring for the people. He does not amass money and can protect Wang Hua's several financial resources very well.  After Wang Hua appeared in Lingzhou, the imperial court came down to check the assets, and joined forces with the Wang family and other families in Taiyuan to send the people from the imperial court away.  Another thing is that under his governance, officials will be more honest and government agencies will be more effective.  The two people have different governance methods, just like Bao Zheng governed Kaifeng with firmness and strictness, and Ouyang Xiu governed Kaifeng with tranquility, and both achieved good results.  It didn¡¯t take three years, just three months, before the people of Qinzhou finally felt what it meant to have a footed spring.  In the past few years, Qinzhou has been under great rule. Last year, the tax paid reached more than two million yuan, almost double that of Guangzhou.  It¡¯s not that Qinzhou has more money than Guangzhou, it¡¯s because of corruption.    But Song Dynasty was also very sad in his heart. Too many things happened in the court.  First came the death of the five kings, and even Lao Wei would have been forced to death if it weren't for Wang Hua's guidance.  Later, when Wang Hua returned to the capital, he almost said nothing.  But that's it, he was forced out of the palace.  Wang Hua has the ability to break out of the palace, can he do it himself?  It is estimated that a soldier came up and grabbed his little arms and legs (Song Jing was very thin).  But he did not doubt Wang Hua, but he knew that Wang Hua's attitude towards the court did not have the respect shown by any minister.  Even when Wang Hua sent troops to Chang'an, he still had no doubts.  Later he wrote a letter, mainly because Qi Wanghua went too far in blackmailing the court.  No matter what, he was happy to be in Qinzhou now, loved by the people, and far away from the court, so he realized what a wonderful path Wang Hua had arranged for himself.  But all this was broken by an imperial edict from the imperial court.  He did not dare to disobey the imperial edict, so he had to start setting off slowly.  The people of Qinzhou were unhappy when they heard this.  It turns out that Qinzhou was very backward, but now it has a port, businessmen from all directions live here, and they are very well-informed.  Only then did they know that there were not many good officials like Wang Hua and Song Dynasty in the entire Tang Dynasty, and there were almost only a few of them.  Not only two in a row, but encountering one is a rare thing for hundreds of years.  It was not easy to get the first good official, and it didn¡¯t take long for him to be recalled to Beijing.  Instead of summoning him to Beijing, he sent a thousand troops to kill him.  Now the second good official has been summoned away.  This time Jing didn't know what happened.  Because the area under his jurisdiction was more than ten times larger than that of Wang Hua, and there were more people, they once again covered the sky and sun and crouched on both sides of the road. The scene was even more spectacular than when Wang Hua was presented to him, and they all knelt on the ground to prevent Song Dynasty from leaving.  This time Song Dynasty finally felt Wang Hua's mood that day.  It turned out to be very envious, but actually when it happened to me, I felt equally uncomfortable.  They persuaded them one by one, and they walked for a long time from the city to the port before boarding the ship.  The sails of the ship were pulled up, and the cries on both sides of the bank were like mourning for an heir.  Not only Qinzhou, but also all the prefectures assigned to Qinzhou, the common people in every prefecture and county spontaneously built shrines to the Song Dynasty.  There are dozens of shrines in each county. The newly appointed governor of Qinzhou was very frightened when he saw this scene. He originally wanted to extend his hand, but he forced himself to hold back.  This send-off was also a major event that caused a sensation in both the government and the public.  Wang Hua won the hearts and minds of the people with a strong financial nature, although he did not deny his ability to govern.  But for traditional scholar-bureaucrats, this kind of governance is somewhat looked down upon.  But the Song Dynasty actually managed the people's hearts and minds.  Thinking back to Wang Hua's list, there is another person. Old Yao stayed in Bozhou and also managed the people smoothly.  This is the true style of name and appearance.  Even before the Song Dynasty arrived in the capital, people all over the world were eagerly waiting for it.  The boat arrived in Yangzhou and transferred to a small river boat.  But he didn't expect to be discovered by people, and many people gathered around to watch.  " Wang Hua's list of dozens of people cannot be remembered by ordinary people. They only know that Wang Hua said that when it comes to the talents of prime ministers, Song Jing and Yao Chongzhi should be the most coveted in the world.  Everyone wanted to come and see what the first prime minister of the Tang Dynasty looked like.  In fact, there is nothing interesting about him. He is a thin old man in his fifties.  Talent is in the belly and cannot be seen or touched.  "But the people didn't think so. When they saw Da Song coming to Beijing to be prime minister, he was dressed in coarse cloth, even plainer than himself.  Everyone was very pleasing to the eye, and even the wrinkles at the corners of Da Song's eyes seemed to be shining with a loving light.  With more and more people watching, Da Song had no choice but to give up and quickly ordered the ship owner to drive the ship away.  But with the arrival of the Song Dynasty, the temperature finally reached the critical point and the gunpowder finally exploded.  []
