Chapter 973(1/2)
On March 27, in the second year of Jianwu in the Northern Chu Dynasty, Wang Xiao accepted Tang Feng's surrender in Xi'an.
The Chu Dynasty officially recovered Henan, Shaanxi, and most of Shanxi.
At this point, the Tang Zhongyuan started from the third year of Yanguang to rebel, and in the past twenty years, the regime established by the four sides became destructive.
...
"Only in the second year of Jianwu, on March 2, Gengyin, Tang Feng was named An Ding Gong. The king and Gong respected morality, adhered to the righteousness, surrendered their hearts and thoughts, and did not fear self-impartiality, and believed that loving the people and the whole country was the most important. Isn't it a good fortune? Jia and Gong always enjoyed the wealth of the emperor, and hoped that the emperor would only obey the destiny of heaven, overcome the moral heart, and finally showed strength and always served as a good assistant to the country..."
As the edict was taken over by Tang Feng, the ceremony of receiving the title began, and the Darui Dynasty ended.
Tang Feng was named Duke Anding, and Tang Jie was named Marquis of Wuding.
The titles of these two people are not very high compared to the expectations of the civil and military officials of the Rui Dynasty. After this tone was set, most people were disappointed.
But Tang Feng and Tang Jie lost the intention to fight again.
Because a small battle in Hanzhong defeated Tang Jie's pride. In the past two years, he has never beaten Wang Xiao, Dorgon, and now he has been frustrated to beat a small person like Li Hongji...
How to say it, although he was angry at that time and only brought a small number of troops and horses to advance rashly, Tang Jie could not bear to be defeated by his former generals.
Wang Xiao killed Li Hongji like killing chickens, saying that it was "just a small rebellion". The accompanying army's documents only recorded a note, "At the end of February, King Jin defeated the thief in Hanzhong", and he was too lazy to write the name to others...
Tang Jie lost his energy, although Tang Feng told him—"This was all intentional by Wang Xiao. I wrote a letter to anger you first, and used you to conquer Li Hongji's main force, and then he wiped out the enemy in one fell swoop. Everything was Wang Xiao plotting against you."
Then even if you understand these things, you will lose your mind if you lose your energy.
"If there was no Lao Qi, how is it different for Wang Xiao to kill us and Li Hongqi, Liu Zongmin?"
The two brothers had to accept the title of Mr. Anding and Marquis Wuning...
"Ha, there is not even a fief..."
In addition, during this negotiation, a crucial figure who had a relationship with two dynasties never showed up.
This person is... Xiao Daigua.
As the flesh and blood of the seventh prince of the Yuan Rui Dynasty and the King of Jin in the Chu Dynasty, he should have become a hub and become the name of civil and military officials who strive for power in the new court.
But the news came back that the young man accidentally fell and injured while being chased by Liu Zongmin and needed to recover from his injuries in Nanyang.
It is said that Wang Xiao was furious because of this and had privately scolded Tang Fei for failing to protect his son.
But Wang Xiao usually looks generous and generous.
This is both terrifying and gratifying.
Therefore, the entire peace talks went very smoothly...
A few people, including Li Bobo, saw that this was another trick by Wang Xiao, but the general situation was settled, but he could not say anything else.
...
On March 28, Wang Xiao and Tang Qianqian held a banquet in their mansion on the banks of the Qujiang River.
Although they did not say it clearly, they were reorganized as a wedding.
No matter what the consideration is, Tang Qianqian surrendered with Rui Dynasty, and her reputation is unworthy.
She became the Princess of Jin and was on par with Chunning.
She was so guilty that she was actually unwilling to share with others the title of Wang Xiao’s wife. She has always stayed in Ruichao and actually wanted to suppress Chunning in the past.
But in the end, it became such a situation where you can't win or lose.
Fortunately, after so much, the little obsession in her heart also disappeared. Last time she went to Jinan, she also found a way to get along with Chunning.
She knew that at least she could stay with Wang Xiao forever in the future, at least she still understood him best.
At the end of the banquet, Wang Xiao and Tang Qianqian gave a glass of wine to the guests and completed the cumbersome ceremony with congratulations sayings of "Holding the desk to the eyebrow".
This time I didn't pick the veil.
The couple did not wear a dress, but it was a little more grander than usual.
After returning to the room, Tang Qianqian sat in front of the dressing table to take off her jewelry. Seeing that this beautiful woman had now become her legitimate wife, Wang Xiao reached out to put her arms around her waist.
"You were the most beautiful before, how could you become more and more beautiful?"
Although Wang Xiao is the supreme king of Jin, he can't actually say many love words of high quality.
Fortunately, he is handsome and does not look greasy.
Tang Qianqian hugged him and said, "You have been lazy before, why are you still so lazy? Go and change your clothes and wash your clothes."
Wang Xiao was too lazy to go and replied casually: "I used to tease me every day, but now I have become your husband, and I will be used to sending me."
"Do you know what Huazhi said to us?" Tang Qianqian said: "She said, 'You two are parents like this? The child is left outside and suffers, and she lives in the house to enjoy herself every day', and you still refuse to reflect on it."
"Nothing she said was useless. I wouldn't let my son bring it to them anymore."
Tang Qianqian asked someone to get water in and twisted a facial towel to wipe Wang Xiao's face.
She knew that Wang Xiao had sent his son to Xinye. Wang Zhen was there in Xinye, and two scholars named Sun Zhixin and Hu Jingshi built another club there.
That place must be less than Jinan and Xi'an is comfortable now. If another mother would probably have to force Wang Xiao to send her son back.
When she understood Wang Xiao’s thoughts, she didn’t say anything about it.
But her husband should teach her a lesson. She gave Wang a blank smile and said angrily: "Can you just bring it? Feed all the spicy and numb things randomly."
"What is the spicy taste of flower amaranth? Just turn around and get a little chili to be really spicy. Can Sichuan and Shu land without oil and spicy food be called Sichuan land?"
Wang Xiao shook Tang Qianqian's hand, washed himself, and said, "I have been busy in the past two years. Let my elder brother take care of the children for two years first. I will take care of myself after I go back... Well, my elder brother is good at educating people. You know that he used to be a guru in school..."
"Anyway, Sister Yuanyuan is very angry. She will scold us again when she sees her next time..."
The couple talked some homely gossip. After Wang Xiao washed up, he pulled Tang Qianqian to sit down in front of the table.
This time he came to Xi'an, Tang Qianqian specially created a new chair.
This chair allows them to lie halfway down together, and it is very convenient to handle official documents while being fucked...
"My father is really funny, you know he asked me, 'This house is really good, can the house be complete?'"
Tang Qianqian smiled and said, "There is no house deed. This is originally a villa of the King of Qin. My father wants to know who the house belongs to, or it can be said that it belongs to his other daughter-in-law Zhou Mei."
"ha."
Wang Xiao picked up a list and stopped the topic in time.
Tang Qianqian said: "Since Dad likes this house, please leave it for him, right?"
"We are not here to enclose land." Wang Xiao said: "There is no silver in the account. When I go back to Jinan and back to the capital, these luxury houses and courtyards should be sold, including the princes and nobles who were originally awarded by Ruichao."
He hugged Tang Qianqian on his lap and sighed: "Look at your structure, in just a few years, there are more meritorious officials and relatives than in Jinan. They all have fertile land and beautiful houses, and divide Guanzhong into clean..."
"Dad captured Xi'an, the first thing he did was to be a great hero. Later, he ascended the throne and became emperor, captured the capital, and awarded him again. When my elder brother and I wanted to rectify it, we would be too big to lose."
"So, to cleanse, we should start with ourselves."
Wang Xiao picked up the pen and drew a name on the list.
"Ma Sixi... I can't succeed in literature, but I can't understand martial arts. I just saved your father on the battlefield five years ago and named him an earl... It's really..."
He shook his head and then drew another name.
Tang Qianqian smiled and said, "You might as well pick out the ones you want to leave. When will you mark one by one?"
"Well, too, even a hundred can't pick twenty..."
"What are you going to do with the remaining eighty?"
"Split it and transform it." Wang Xiao said: "Some people can still be trained and tempered, and some can be put back to their hometowns and become a rich man, but it will be difficult to be rich and noble. I will not raise idle people."
"What should I do if someone is dissatisfied? These people have committed rebellion and seen blood."
"Kill it." Wang Xiao said indifferently, "I am not Tang Feng, or if he uses his method, it will be difficult for me to manage Shaanxi well for ten years."
Tang Qianqian raised her head and leaned on Wang Xiao's shoulder, shrinking her body into a ball, making her a little lazy.
In the past two years, she has worked very hard to manage Shaanxi well, and she always feels unable to do so. Now, when Wang Xiao comes, he overturns everything from the root and sorts out everything again.
She knew that after she ruled this place and connected it with Shandong, she would soon be no longer as poor as before.
The process must not be simple. There are always people who are touched by interests and oppose the new policy, but the general trend is coming, and no one can stop it.
"Boss and third brothers, what are you going to make arrangements?"
Wang Xiao said, "Brother is a little discouraged now. With his identity, it is difficult to do anything for the time being. Let's wait for a year or two. When the capital is recovered, he can come out to work. His talent is more than enough to be in charge of a yamen."
"Um."
Wang Xiao said again: "The third brother is very good at fighting, and it's a pity to be unemployed, but his fighting style is really not suitable for this side. First, I'll send it to the martial arts lecture hall for half a year and practice shooting skills... I can also lead the army afterwards, but I can't take his former soldiers anymore, and then break up and reorganize them."
Wang Xiao rubbed his forehead and felt that there were still many things to be busy in Xi'an.
"You asked Tang Laosan to go to the martial arts lecture hall to study?" Tang Qianqian smiled bitterly, and said nothing. She discussed with Wang Xiao the candidates for officials from Shaanxi and Shanxi.
She thought that everything would be the same after surrender, but Wang Xiao meant to fully implement the new policy. In many places, officials would be reselected, and things would be troublesome.
It seems that the couple must stay in Guanzhong for a longer period of time.
But she also likes this, Wang Xiao only stays with her...
