Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Wei Feng is currently unwilling to go to war with Rouran because he has no first-hand information about Rouran. For the countries in Middle-earth, except for the Wei people who have been fighting against Rouran for many years and have a deeper understanding of Rouran, the other countries have almost no contact with Rouran.  Moreover, the records of Rouran in historical books are not as detailed as those of the Huns and Turks. To start a war with Rouran, it is most important to ascertain the intelligence.  So, Wei Feng said politely: "Okay, Qiu Doufa Khan is interested. Please pay tribute to your Khan on my behalf." "Thank you so much, King Ming!" After thanking the Rouran envoy named Chiluohou, he came from his arms.  He took out the sheepskin scroll and presented it: "My Khan believes that the best way to deepen the relationship between the two countries is to marry. I heard that the eldest daughter of King Ming, Qinghui, is elegant in appearance, knowledgeable and courteous, and my Khan has always admired her.  With my heart, I am offering you thousands of horses and thousands of cattle and sheep as a betrothal gift to marry your daughter, so that I can forever marry the Qin and Jin Dynasties with the Ming Dynasty!" In an instant, everyone in the palace looked at each other and came to marry me!  Wei Feng's eldest daughter?  Although no one knows exactly how old Qiudoufa Khan is, according to his chronology, he must be at least forty years old, while Wei Feng's eldest daughter is only eleven years old!  Someone on the spot said it was a pity!  In fact, an old man and a young wife are nothing, and marriage is not a big deal. Since the Han Dynasty, marriage has become a national policy. Sacrifice of a daughter in exchange for peace in the northern border of the country is a lucrative business. These people who secretly say it is a pity are because  They also took a fancy to Wei Feng's eldest daughter. Although Wei Qinghui was a concubine, she had the status of the eldest daughter and was deeply loved by Wei Feng. They also expected to propose marriage to Wei Feng for their nephew in two years!  But that¡¯s good, Rouran Khan stepped in!  The ministers all turned their attention to Wei Feng. Some of them were worried about gains and losses. They not only hoped that Wei Feng would refuse, but they were also worried that Rouran would become powerful and trigger an all-out war. Now that Guanzhong and Xiliang were not at peace, they would have provoked people like Rouran for nothing.  Behemoth will produce unexpected variables.  After all, grassland is different from Middle-earth.  In fact, since the Three Kingdoms, the various kingdoms in China have been in chaos. There have not been many life-and-death battles, and a considerable part of them have been based on recruitment and surrender. However, the Rouran people have not been educated. In terms of ferocity and barbarism, they are better than the Xianbei, Qiang, Di, and  Ding Ling, Xiongnu and other tribes will not surrender easily.  Moreover, the grassland area is vast, and the cavalry comes and goes like the wind. With Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's talent and strategy and Wenjing's decades of savings, it was still a fight with the Xiongnu. Both sides suffered losses, and the Ming Dynasty was newly established, and hundreds of industries were waiting to be prospered.  Although King Ming has great martial arts skills, he may not be able to defeat Rouran!  However, some people who know Wei Feng, such as Cui Hao, Xie Gongyi, and most generals, all know that something is going to happen again, and their eyes are a little complicated.  With Wei Feng's protective nature, how could he use his beloved daughter to marry Rouran?  Sure enough, as soon as Chi Luohou finished speaking, Wei Feng's chest was already boiling with murderous intent, but he suppressed his anger and said lukewarmly: "Qinghui is only eleven years old and is far from the age of marriage. Qiu Doufa Khan's good intentions alone  That¡¯s what I¡¯m thinking about.¡± He scolded Luohou and said, ¡°King Ming is serious. Whether it¡¯s me, Rouran, or Zhongtu, there are many underage married women. My Khan is willing to have a good relationship with the Ming Dynasty for generations.  Come here with sincerity, please think again." Wei Feng's face darkened and he said coldly: "If you don't get along, you can't have a good relationship?  With conditions? Please tell your khan that you are welcome to make friends, but marriage is not an option!" Chi Luohou shook his head in disappointment: "It seems that the king of Ming has rejected my khan's kindness, so the foreign minister can only do so.  I have reported it to the Khan truthfully. If it affects the relationship between you and usdon't blame the foreign minister for not predicting what he said!" Wei Feng's face would have been extremely ugly, if it weren't for Chi Luohou's status as an envoy!  , had been dragged down and killed a long time ago, but he actually had his daughter in mind and dared to threaten him. Wasn't this asking for death or something?  "Your Majesty!" Xu Xianzhi, a former official of the Jiankang court who was retained by Wei Feng as Minister of the Treasury, hurriedly advised: "The envoy from Rouran has come a long way and has to work hard by boat and carriage. You might as well arrange to go to the post for a break first, and then give you a reply in two days."  ?" He said and gave Wei Feng a wink.  Wei Feng swept his eyes coldly and said calmly: "Mr. Zongwen (Xu Xian's cousin), I know that you have good intentions, but it is a matter of national importance, and there is no need for any delaying tactics. I have always been the only one in the Ming Dynasty to burn, kill and loot others, so why not  Are you willing to be bullied? It's not that I don't want to give up a daughter, but I want the humiliation and peace that I get from the marriage. Today, I will set a rule here. From now on, I, the Ming Dynasty, will not marry or pay tribute.  Without cutting off the land, I moved the capital to Beijing alone. With the respect of the emperor, I guarded the country and took it as my and subsequent emperors' responsibility to pacify the northern border troubles. The city is still there but the people will be destroyed. People will die if the city is destroyed. If there is anyone who will move the capital away from Beijing for future generations,  After death, he should be buried in a thin coffin and should not be given a posthumous title in a temple. This is the ancestral teaching! " Wei Feng's words were loud and loud!  The blood in everyone's chest was ignited. Even the old officials had the urge to pick up swords and guns and go into battle.??Chang'an and Luoyang, Chang'an can be defended if it is related. Luoyang is located in the heart of the Central Plains and is far away from border troubles. In the future, Wei Feng will move the capital to Youyan as the emperor, isn't it just for the long-term peace and stability of the country?  The emperor is like this, so why should his subordinates cherish their lives?  Cui Hao, as a wealthy family member in Hebei, had unforgettable memories of the people in the north. It was difficult for him to conceal his passion, not to mention moving the capital to Beijing was also his heart's wish. He immediately stood up and bowed deeply: "I am willing to follow the king to guard the northern country!"  He cupped his hands and said, "I and my uncle only follow the king's orders and should move the whole family to Beijing!" Xie Hui was not willing to lag behind and said, "I will definitely persuade my father to move the family to Beijing!"  On the one hand, he was more than a step behind Xie Gongyi, so he had to agree to move the capital. On the other hand, he also wanted to marry Wei Feng. He had a widowed sister, Xie Yuejing, who was Wang Gong's daughter-in-law and Wang Man's sister-in-law.  Since Wang Gong was defeated and taken away, he has not married yet. In terms of appearance, he has inherited the excellent genes of the Xie family, no less than one of Xie Wenchan and Xie Wenli. In terms of age, he is slightly younger than Wang Man, so he is the right one to marry.  time.  "But because of Xie Yuejing's status as the former daughter-in-law of the Wang family in Taiyuan, and her father Xie Zhong being forced by Sima Daozi to sever her relationship with the Wang family in Taiyuan, Wang Man would not be willing to mention it directly, so she had to do it step by step.  At present, his father and son have arranged for Xie Yuejing to go through Xie Daoyun's network. On the one hand, they can ease the relationship with Xie Hun. On the other hand, they can get close to Wei Feng's concubines through Xie Daoyun in order to fulfill their long-cherished wish. If the family does not follow them to Beijing  , there will be no chance of even contact in the future, let alone marriage.  No one in the hall knew Xie Hui's thoughts, but with these three people taking the lead, and Wang Ningzhi and Xie Hun's public statements before, the ministers, regardless of whether they had made up their minds or not, must not hesitate in such a situation, otherwise, not only would  You will be looked down upon by others, and you will be squeezed out of the center of power!  The emperor is not afraid of death and sets an example, but you are afraid of death and are timid, so what are you doing?  Suddenly, all officials, both civil and military, clapped their chests and spoke in support, and the atmosphere in the palace reached its peak!  In fact, there have been countless opponents of moving the capital in the past dynasties. The key is the loss of interests. For example, Wang Xie followed Wei Feng and moved the capital to Beijing. Although the manor remained in Kuaiji, the north and south were thousands of miles apart, and the industry was too far away from the family.  , is inconvenient, and if you are not careful, big problems will occur. However, almost everyone in the civil and military dynasties does not own property in Jiangnan!  Moving the capital is the same as moving house, and the impact will be huge.  Historically, Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty wanted to move the capital from Pingcheng to Luoyang, but there was a lot of opposition in the court, forcing him to coerce the powerful officials to move to Luoyang on the pretext of sending troops south. Zhao Kuangyin, the Taizu of the Song Dynasty, wanted to move the capital from Kaifeng to Luoyang, but due to opposition  The noise was too loud, so we had no choice but to let it go. Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, succeeded in moving the capital because he was based in the north and also had iron-blooded skills. He became the only person who successfully moved the capital in the peaceful and prosperous era!  But today, under the pressure of the Rouran Emperor, Wei Feng cleverly used the situation to easily pass the proposal to move the capital. Although there was strong support from Cui Hao and others, the key was that Wei Feng was the founding king.  He has supreme authority. In other words, if Wei Feng does not move, and his son will move him in the future, there is a high probability that he will not be able to move.  Wei Feng was extremely satisfied with this result, which was both expected and unexpected. After admiring Cui Hao, Xie Gongyi and Xie Hui, he pressed his hands and said: "For Rouran, Gu is not the least bit bad."  I don¡¯t know, Qiudoufa Khan¡¯s name is Yujiulu Shelun, and he is the sixth generation grandson of Mugulu. Just as the Jie people are slaves of the Huns, Mugulu is the slave of Xianbei. After a lucky escape, several tribes of Lifu finally waited for the powerful  Opportunity! In the 19th year of Taiyuan (AD 394), Shelun, his brothers Huoduohan, Hulu and others abandoned their father Yunheti and led their troops to the west. They were defeated by Wei general Sun Feida in Bana Mountain (now Wula Mountain in Inner Mongolia).  , a section of Yinshan Mountain), Huoduo Khan and most of his tribe were killed in the battle, leaving only Shelun and Hulu with hundreds of people to defect to their uncle Pihouba. But Shelun, like Liu Bobo, did not think of revenge and instead planned to kill  After conquering Pihouba, he annexed tens of thousands of people from Rouran in the east. However, because Pihouba's disciples escaped in time and went to the Wei people, they were afraid that the Wei people would be attracted to attack, so they plundered Wuyuan (today's Mayanzhuoer League in Inner Mongolia).  ) After that, the tribes in the west fled to Mobei. Later, in order to resist the Wei State, Shelun and Yao Xing married. Since they had the confidence, they fought with the Wei State in Hequ and were defeated. Shelun was defeated and retreated to Mobei.  The Orkhon and Tula rivers, which are rich in water and grass, were occupied by the Chile tribes dominated by Hulu, so Shelun attacked Hulu and defeated them. " As he said that, Wei Feng glanced at the shocked Chiluohou.  , continued: "After Shelun defeated Hulu, under the guidance of you who surrendered to Rouran, he attacked the Chilean tribes and took over the fertile land around the Orkhon and Tula rivers. From this, his power grew.  Zhen, next, they defeated the eastern Xiongnu and annexed all their clans. For a time, their power was greatly enhanced, and all the tribes in all directions were defeated.The troops suffered so much that the invaders copied them, and they surrendered one after another. Did I say anything wrong?  " Chi Luohou suppressed his shock and insisted: "Since King Ming knows me so well, Rouran, he should know that my Khan has hundreds of thousands of people who can control strings, so why should he be an enemy of my Khan?  "
