Chapter 118 Thunder on the Ground It¡¯s the twelfth lunar month, and New Year¡¯s Day is coming. . . But the clouds were gathering in Luoyang. First, Song Jing, Wang Zhimin and others were demoted from the court, and then, Li Chaoyin and Bi Gou were demoted again. At this point, all the righteousness that Li Xian had built up was lost. Even in the west, the Blood Camp fought with Guo Yuanzhen and the Tubo people in the snow, but they were not at a disadvantage. A new tactic appeared in this battle, sleds with javelins, but they did not attract people's attention. Wei Shi continuously transferred ministers, promoted them and demoted them. She felt that everyone in the court was her confidant, so she breathed a sigh of relief, and Fengjia came to Shangyang Palace. You have to talk to Li Guo'er. It doesn't matter to others. If you don't comfort your daughter who has a headache, first of all, Li Guo'er must show up when the worship is about to take place. What if she points to herself and says she murdered the emperor? Why did the eunuch next to Li Xian be called in to get the piano when Li Xian was poisoned? It was because Li Xian was fine before drinking that he was cleared of suspicion. Then he called the imperial doctor and, under his own coercion, said that Li Xian died of a sudden illness. We are also fighting for this righteousness. If it is confirmed that she poisoned her husband, the world will be in chaos. "If Li Guo'er shouts during the memorial ceremony, the situation will be very bad. And this daughter is very "unfilial" and is very likely to do this. Arriving at Guanfeng Hall, Wei got off the phoenix chariot and found Li Guo'er. Li Guoer is using cinnabar to copy the "Taishan Sutra Shiyu Diamond Sutra". This authentic work is not a manuscript, but a stone carving on a cliff, inscribed with more than 20 lines of the Vajra Prajnaparamita Sutra, with characters about fifty centimeters in diameter. The large calligraphy was originally written on the bed of the granite stream at Jingshi Valley in Mount Tai. It came from the Northern Qi Dynasty and I don¡¯t know who wrote it. When Wang Hua was traveling to Mount Tai in his youth, he passed by this place, copied it by hand, and called it: Although it is called Fenkai regular script, it mostly contains seal script and official script, with strict front edges, consistent writing, decent turns, and simple form. The meaning of the seal is far-reaching, it is dialed but not unruly, curved but not soft, the wave is subtle, and the stretch is different. It is also called the unity of knots and harmony, which is comparable to that of Wang Ou and Yu Chu. Compare it with the calligraphy of Wang Xizhi and his son, Ouyang Xun, Yu Shinan and Chu Suiliang. Although it is a bit exaggerated, the calligraphy of this stele is thick and ancient, sharp and clear, and the most wonderful thing is clumsy but not stiff. The stipples are interesting, disconnected and disappear, and there is a kind of magnanimity and grace. No one paid attention to it at first, but it was not until much later, when the ancient stele was excavated, that this stone carving shocked the world. Bao Shichen, Kang Youwei and others praised it highly and called it a masterpiece of calligraphy in the Northern Wei Dynasty. It¡¯s just that because of the appearance of Wang Hua, this stone carving was advanced nearly a thousand years and attracted the attention of the world. The five great families of Wang, Ou, Yu and Chu are rarely seen by ordinary scholars. Even if you see it, it's just someone else's copy. But this stone carving is carved on granite, and no big family dares to dig it back together with the mountain wall, despite the disapproval of the world. So many Shandong disciples went to visit, firstly to see the wonders of Mount Tai, and secondly to see this stone carving. ??The most collected calligraphy by Wang Hua is Li Chiying, which was written by him in the early period. The most collected calligraphy by him in the later period is Li Guoer. Li Guoer lost her father and was very sad, so she took out the Diamond Sutra and copied it. She decided to copy it a hundred times with cinnabar to save the souls of her father. But this handwriting is not difficult for Wang Hua to copy, but it is not suitable for Li Baoer. When Li Guo'er was learning regular script, Wang Hua pointed out that Chu style was the most suitable for her, because Chu style is rich, smooth, charming and suitable for Li Guo'er's character and writing style. At that time, she was learning Wang Xizhi's calligraphy. After listening to Wang Hua's advice, he switched to Chu style and his calligraphy improved greatly. Someone else quietly reported to Wu Zetian, but Wu Zetian just said lightly: "The calligraphy is wrong for the person. Isn't Chu Suiliang's handwriting not as beautiful as yours?" This person ran away in despair. Now Li Guo'er's calligraphy is gradually taking shape, imitating the "Diamond Sutra", which is more than graceful and has changes in taste, but it is simple and clumsy, and there is no trace of it at all. Webster stood behind her, looking at her struggling to write, and couldn't help but said: "This word is not suitable for you to write." Li Baoer turned around and saw her mother coming, and her face became cold. Although Shangguan Xiaowan took a huge risk and sent Jiang Cai'er to inform her, she was sad but not angry, sad but not resentful, but she still couldn't help but pointed to the red letter on the paper and said: "Mother, this is the message of my son. I'm sorry for you." Wei Shi was angry when she heard it, but when she saw the blood-red writing on the paper, she couldn't help but tremble when she thought of the blood spit out from Li Xian's mouth that day. In fact, during this time, she often had nightmares. ? ??When you do bad things, you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. It doesn't matter if you kill other people, mainly Li Xian. When Li Xian was alive, Webster believed that Li Xian had failed him, and actually found reasons to give himself the courage and courage to kill Li Xian. But after his death, he also thought about Li Xian's benefits and felt indebted. So much so that she ignored the public opinion outside and summoned Wu Yanxiu into the palace every night during this period to accompany her to bed. This had nothing to do with her physical needs, but mainly to embolden her at night. However, she was a person with an abnormal mind. She quickly calmed down and said: "Bao'er, I just want to say that this is just a coincidence. Not every emperor lives as long as your eldest mother. Taizong only lived for fifty years." Emperor Gaozong was in his early sixties. If you look at the dozens of emperors in the Han Dynasty, some died of illness in their prime. If you follow your reasoning, wouldn't it mean that they were all murdered by humans? Murder, who dares to murder Emperor Taizong?" Li Guo'er did not answer, but she was in a very excited mood. So I didn¡¯t pay attention when writing the word "wave". The wavy characters on the copybook are still exquisite, the water is drawn diagonally, and the characters are connected vertically, but they become a straight curved hook with a stroke, which is intended to be a running script without any edge. This change makes This word "wave" is full of fun. "But Li Guo'er returned to his previous writing style, adding characters one by one, neatly and gracefully, but without the sense of fun and clumsiness. Wei Shi then said: "I'll ask you again, even if I want to murder the emperor, even the Wei family's husband-in-law, I won't reveal even half of such confidential matters. Who said this to you after chewing his tongue? ?¡± This was also another goal of her coming. Li Xianjian was there at the time, and she didn¡¯t know who revealed the news to Li Guoer. But they didn't dare to look closely, so they hurriedly executed the dozens of eunuchs and maids serving around Li Guo'er. Then Li Guo'er was imprisoned and the big things were reduced to trivial matters so as not to attract Li Xian's attention. But now that the dust has settled, it would be best to find out if possible. With the help of those eunuchs and maids, they did not have the vision to guess that he might take action. She now has two suspects in her mind. The first one was budgeted by Li Dan and his son and Princess Taiping, so she used Li Guo'er's advice to warn Li Xian. They all have this opportunity, but Webster still doesn't understand something. In fact, Li Xian's death was also good for them. Unless Li Xian died, they would have no chance to seize the world. But it¡¯s hard to say, maybe they¡¯re not ready yet, so I hope they won¡¯t take action for the time being. If this is the reason, she doesn¡¯t have to worry, because it¡¯s just speculation and no evidence. The second suspect is the two people she poisoned to death, Ma Qinke and Yang Jun. They prepared poison for themselves, maybe thinking of killing themselves to silence them. As a precaution, they secretly left behind some evidence. If this may be true, you should be careful. After finishing speaking, she looked at Li Baoer's face carefully. But she didn¡¯t notice anything strange. Wei Shi regretted it. If he had known this, he might as well have left a few people alive to see who had come into contact with Li Guoer during that time. Having no other choice, she had no choice but to use her final trump card. Wei Shi then said: "Bao'er, I sent an imperial envoy to Lingzhou a few days ago to declare to Wang Hua and grant him the title of General and Guanglu Doctor." This sentence finally caught Li Bao'er's attention. , she looked at her mother with some astonishment. As a princess, she knew the level of these two positions. In the past, she had many disputes with her parents in order to fight for Wang Hua's interests. However, the results were not satisfactory to her. In fact, she also knew that this was just her ideal. Wang Hua was too young, and this age became a constraint for Wang Hua. I didn¡¯t expect that my mother would have such courage. But then she understood her mother¡¯s intention, which was to gain Wang Hua¡¯s support. Therefore, Li Guoer frowned slightly and just snorted coldly. Webster didn¡¯t take it seriously yet, but gradually his disgust began to take over his liking. But she was very deep-seated, and she didn't show anything on her face. She continued, "There is another task, which is to finalize your marriage." Li Baoer's face showed sarcasm, but he still remained silent. Webster felt even more disgusted. She said meaningfully: "The Wu family has asked Gu to marry you to Wu Yanxiu many times. You are a talented and beautiful couple, and I can't think clearly about it in my heart right now. The descendants of the famous Wu family are the relatives of the Queen Mother. With many children, if you get the Wu family With his support, Gu will undoubtedly have added strength to defend national security. But I don¡¯t know how you would feel if you were married to Wu Yanxiu, or if you were married to Wang Hua.Wang Hua is undecided about being alone. Being alone is difficult. " After saying that, he left. "I didn't say it clearly, but there is no doubt that this sentence told Li Guo'er, listen to me, and you and Wang Hua can still have room for negotiation. If you don't listen to me, I will marry you to Wu. Yanxiu, you will never be able to stay together. Seeing the negative impact of her departure, Li Baoer angrily tore up the paper on the table. But Wei Shi was not happy for long, and just left Shangyang Palace. When he saw the urgent report, Wei was so shocked that he even dropped it on the ground. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The coldest place in the Twenty-three Prefectures is the Jishi Mountain area. It¡¯s really a little better in Chuihe Shannan, or in Fengzhou in the north It is also very cold in the newly designated Yinshan Prefecture, but it is not as warm as spring in other places. The Yellow River on the west side of Lingzhou is so frozen that you can run horses on it. It is much better, although it is still cold. However, there are west-facing mountains blocking the cold airflow on the plateau, and Liupanshan Mountain blocking the northwest, which also blocks the cold air from the northwest. But Wuzhou is now far inferior to what it was during the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms. Wuzhou was not even as good as the Sui Dynasty. At that time, Wudu County was one of the most important states and counties in the world. There are two reasons for this. The first is the further widening of the road from Hanzhong to Chang'an. As Tubo became stronger, it often invaded the area from western Sichuan to Wumin River. Due to the invasion of Tubo, the population began to decline, so the latter reason was the most important reason for the decline of Wuzhou. But with the recovery of Jishi Mountain, it was equal to the decline of Wuzhou. With the direct threats from more than a dozen states including Danwu, Mindiehe, Shankuo, and Wang Hua's massive investment, this old city gradually regained its bustling appearance. A large number of goods came from Bashu and entered the 23rd century. Prefecture, or enter Weiqin and other state capitals. Even in this winter, there are still many vehicles driving slowly on the road. But because of this, Wuzhou is heavily guarded. This is caused by the terrain, in order to make it difficult for the court to attack. The Thirteen Prefectures were blocked, and Wang Hua deliberately begged for these two poor prefectures. But in this way, the twenty-three prefectures ranged from Yunshuo to the northeast, Taiyuan Hedong to the east, Guanzhong Chang'an in the abdomen, and these two prefectures to the south. Possession, close to Hanzhong and Bashu, the imperial court imagined that it would block the eight states as before, and it became a fantasy. However, the two states of Wudang were like a sharp cone, piercing the middle of Mincheng and Fushu states, making it very difficult to defend. Moreover, there are many tall mountains and rivers in the territory, the terrain is complex, and it has just been newly conquered, so people's hearts are not stable, so this area has become the top priority of Wang Hua's defense. For the sake of safety, he not only sent Guo Zhiyun to take charge personally. , and also let Guo Qianguan lead the Tianji Army to sit in Wuzhou, and Zhang Shougui's Yuheng Army to sit in Diezhou to respond. At the same time, the Renzi Militia Division belonging to Guo Zhiyun was also training in the four states. Of course, when preparing to fight the Tubo people. , the temporary conscription passed, but the war calmed down and the army was sent back immediately. In other words, in these four small and narrow states, there are 20,000 regular troops, plus more than 10,000 militiamen. On this day, just like before, the city gates of Wuzhou opened early, and groups of neat troops came out of the city and began to train outside the city. Then it was the turn of the people and merchants lined up inside and outside the city to enter. As usual, the soldiers guarding the city gate carefully inspected the certificates and goods of passing merchants and people. But relatively speaking, the soldiers are more disciplined than other states in the Central Plains, and extortion and bribery are almost invisible. At this time, a group of six or seven people came in a hurry, and there was a pretty little girl in the middle. However, this group of people were dressed in rags and looked very miserable. When they came to the city gate, they did not enter the city. Instead, a man walked out from the middle, came to the soldiers at the city gate, and asked carefully: "Excuse me, are you Wang Hua's men?" A dozen soldiers guarding the city They raised their heads together, with some anger in their eyes. Wang Hua? Regardless of whether he is the general manager or the camp governor, he can be called him. What qualifications do you have to directly call Wang Hua by his name? "If Wang Hua hadn't repeatedly issued military orders not to dominate the people, they would have wanted to kick this man to the ground. But the leading captain had a very flexible mind, and he immediately felt strange. It has been several months since Wuzhou was placed under the control of Blood Camp. Why is there this strange problem? He replied: "Exactly, who are you?" "Can we meet Wang Hua?" "Who are you?" The captain was also a little annoyed. He suppressed his anger and said, "I'm sorry, our chief manager. In Lingzhou, not here.If you want to see the general manager, please come to Lingzhou. " He thought in his mind, who are these people? They want to meet with our camp governor? They still need us to inform them. " This person replied: "Excuse me again, your Excellency, this place is decided by the one in the Blood Letter Camp, just like Prince Chongjun asked to see him. "Crack la la" weapons were raised together, and all the people coming in and out stopped and looked at this group of people. These dozen soldiers were also panicked. Prince Chongjun, which one doesn't know? The captain looked at him nervously and asked He said: "Which one is Chongjun, no, which one is the prince? "Whether he was plotting rebellion or not, he has been missing for many years. Now that he has appeared, I don't know if it is true or not. Even if it is true, what does it mean? It is not something that a small captain like him can grasp. "This person pointed. Behind him, there was a young man with a square face, but his face was very haggard. Almost everyone had heard of Li Chongjun, but no one had seen him. Seeing the unknown situation, several big men around Li Chongjun immediately turned to Li. Captain Chong Jun was in the middle, thinking about it and immediately said: "Wait a moment. "Well, I can't figure out this matter myself, so I'd better report it to General Guo. Guo Zhiyun was discussing matters with a group of officials in the city. When he heard the captain's report, he was equally shocked, and so were the others. He immediately said: "I come and see. " He led a group of people to welcome him out of the city. " In fact, Guo Zhiyun knew about Li Chongjun's sudden appearance in Wuzhou, but there were no more than a hundred people in the blood camp who knew about it, and they were all the backbone of the blood camp. But except for Guo Zhiyun and others didn't know the inside story of this matter, but he didn't know Li Chongjun either. He looked around at the dumb people and asked, "Which one is His Excellency the Prince?" " Li Chongjun walked out from the crowd, hugged me and said, "Gu Zheng. I wonder what the general¡¯s name is? " "I am Guo Zhiyun. " "It turns out to be General Guo, whom I have admired for a long time. " "You said you are the prince, what evidence is there? I also heard that you have been missing for a long time. Why did you appear in Wuzhou? " Li Chongjun wiped his tears. This was a show, but these tears were very real. After all, a crown prince had fallen into this state, and he felt very ashamed. Then he said: "General Guo, this matter cannot be explained in a word. At first I felt that Wu Sansi and Wei's plot was not treacherous, so I wanted to clear the emperor's side. Fortunately, Gu killed Wu Sansi and eliminated great harm to the country. However, the late emperor listened to the Demon Queen's slander and did not want to harm the late emperor, so the Qing emperor failed that time. Later, he was surrounded by an army sent by the Demon Queen and fled to Mang Mountain. That time Gu was at the end of his rope, and his soldiers were bewitched by the Demon Queen. Some of them began to rebel against Gu and kill each other. Fortunately, at this time, several strong men who had been favored by Gu wanted to rescue Gu. " He pointed to a few strong men behind him. He then said: "They happened to hear the sound of weapons and followed the sound to find them. The situation was critical at that time, so they did not notify Gu's men and quietly rescued Gu. They did not go eastward. , but follow Mang Mountain all the way to the west and enter Xiaoshan Mountain. Then he went south to Funiu Mountain, where he was secretly taken in by a kind man named Liu in a hidden mountainous area. " He pointed to Miss Liu again and said, "That's her father. This seclusion lasted for several years. " At this point, he began to cry miserably. " After saying this, many people who were watching began to believe that neither Oceania nor the Northwest was a place where people could be raised. It was Li Chongjun who was sequestered in that secret courtyard. Later, After being arranged to stay in the Qinling Mountains for several days, Li Chongjun felt like he had been working hard for several years, and his face was cracked by the north wind. Funiu Mountain was so tall. It is vast and stretches for hundreds of miles, and the court's management of this area is also very weak. If it is hidden, and there is someone to protect and cooperate, it will be difficult for the court to detect it. After Li Chongjun finished speaking, he took out another seal from his arms. It was the seal that he used as the crown prince. Guo Zhiyun looked at it and asked, "Then why did the prince come to Wuzhou at this time? " "General Guo, not long ago, I sent my men out to inquire about news from the outside world. When I heard about the death of my father, I immediately guessed that the emperor was killed by the Demon Queen. So he came all the way along the mountainous area and came to the northwest, asking Wang Hua to seek justice for his father and kill the evil queen. " "The emperor's ministers have also heard that he died of a sudden illness and had nothing to do with the queen. " "General Guo, you said so too? I don't believe that the Demon Queen opened the Zi Palace and asked the imperial doctors to test again to see if my father really died of a sudden illness. " "Prince, even if you say??It's true. Who in the world has the courage to open the Zi Palace and see the late emperor's face? " "General Guo, if you don't believe it, there is only one piece of evidence. Masandui, come out. "A big man walked out from behind him." Li Chongjun said: "The person who betrayed the news of the Blood Camp to the Turks and made the six thousand Blood Camp soldiers almost unable to return to the Central Plains was this Demon Queen." She sent out a total of two people, and Ma Sandui was one of them. Later, Ma Sandui regretted it very much and did not dare to tell Wang Hua the truth. So he took refuge in Gu. Gu was ready to inform Wang Yingdu, but time was urgent and the demon queen used a fake jade seal case, putting Gu's life in danger at any time. Therefore, we planned to clear the emperor's side first and then inform the governor of Wang Ying. But I didn't expect that this time it would turn into a life and death escape journey. " "Are you telling the truth? "A big man rushed out and grabbed Li Chongjun's collar. "Qian Guan, please don't be rude. Put down the prince. " It turned out that Guo Qianguan immediately rushed to watch the fun after hearing about this incident. When he heard about this incident, he was so angry that he grabbed Li Chongjun's collar. " Guo Zhiyun was not involved in what happened back then. , but Guo Qianguan suffered so much that he almost couldn't come back. Moreover, countless close comrades fell one after another. This was a hidden pain in the blood camp and a hidden pain in Guo Qianguan's heart. But Li Chongjun. I was slandering in my heart, thinking, you didn't know this a long time ago. Even though you were singing, you couldn't hold Gu's chest with such strength, but you had to lower your head under the eaves, so you had to hold back your anger and said. : ¡°If you don¡¯t believe it, ask Masandui. " Ma Sandui began to kneel down and swear a heavy oath. Guo Qiangguan was so angry that he shouted: "I want to kill this demon queen. " Guo Zhiyun stopped him and said, "General Guo, don't speak lightly. We cannot yet say whether what Masandui said is true or false. Even if the prince is real or fake, we don't know the prince. We must inform the chief manager about this matter. The Grand Manager and His Royal Highness the Prince were very familiar with each other in handling disaster relief matters for several friends in Huabian Prefecture. Let the Chief Supervisor come to judge. " Li Chongjun said: "That's just right. " Then he said sheepishly: "Can you give Gu Yixing a bite of food? I came all the way alone, with little money, and had not eaten for more than two days. "This also explains the reason why he asked to see him when he came to Wuzhou. He played the tragedy card again. In fact, this business is all about acting. But Li Chongjun cannot be allowed to appear in Lingzhou, as this will immediately remind people of Li Chongjun back then. Chongjun was rescued by Wang Hua. After all, Li Chongjun was convicted of treason by Li Xian, which would make Wang Hua lose part of his morality. Using this reason, he could clear the suspicion of Wang Hua's involvement and take the opportunity to betray the inside story of the blood camp. Announced to the world. Li Chongjun was taken back to Wuzhou by Guo Zhiyun and others. He didn't dare to stay in Wuzhou for a long time and escorted him immediately to Diezhou and then to Lanzhou. The terrain is too thin. If the imperial court finds out and immediately sends troops to attack, the loss of Wuzhou will be small, but the safety of this "unknown" prince will be big. When he arrived in Lanzhou, Wang Hua received the news and came to greet him. When the two met, Wang Hua pretended to be surprised and asked: "Prince, how did you become like this? " It's not good. He has become much more haggard and old in the past few years. But after Wang Hua asked, he wanted to laugh in his heart. This trip was also deliberately arranged by Wang Hua. He did travel through the Qinling Mountains for several days and ate It's a lot of hard work. The cracks on my face have only appeared in the past few days. How can I be a master if I don't endure hardships? Prince, I don't know if I am doing it for your own good, but Wang Hua. The intention was to be realistic, but it was also a prank. "Recognized," Wang Hua immediately got off his horse and saw His Royal Highness. Li Chongjun couldn't help but help Wang Hua up again, but he turned around and fell down towards Wang Hua. After going down, Haotao cried loudly: "Wang Yingdu, I beg you to give my father justice. Wang Hua pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Prince, I don't have any real evidence. How do you want me to send troops?" Li Chongjun said disappointedly: "Do you think it is normal for my father to celebrate his death?" Wang Hua hesitated for a while and replied. : "To be honest, I am also very suspicious. And I have sent people to investigate the matter. But before there is evidence, I can't give you an answer." Used a word of suspicion. Although it did not say that the army would attack Wei, it was very embarrassing. People feel amused. When the news spread, it was like a thunder that resounded all over the world. []
