59. Frustration(1/2)

Half a year after Li Yan ascended the throne, he finally agreed to rehabilitate Wang Chongwen and restore his reputation. At this time, he had died of illness for more than a month. Bayi Middle School    √Wuw    W√.

At this time, Qiu Shiliang killed the last two political enemies: Privy Councilor Liu Hongyi and Prime Minister Li Yu. At the burial ceremony of Emperor Daxing, Qiu Shiliang grabbed the two of them by a minor mistake and refused to give up. In the end, Liu Hongyi was forced to commit suicide and Li Yu was buried alive.

At this point, Qiu Shiliang's power has reached its peak, at least on the surface he has no opponents.

But with the disappearance of the common enemy, the political alliance between him and Li Yan and Yang Hao was also disbanded. With the Yichun Princess Li Qing becoming a monk, the two forces reopened the battlefield in the Daming Palace and began a new round of power competition.

At first, Qiu Shiliang persuaded Yang Hao to agree to cooperate with him by agreeing to marry Li Qing as bait. The content of the cooperation was very extensive and complicated. For example, if you recommend Li Yan as the new monarch, if you promise Qiu Shiliang to retire peacefully, if you recommend Wu Chen to throne, if you guarantee that the new monarch will not overturn the case and not pursue the case after he takes office...

Later, due to Zhang Bozhong's rebellion, Yang Hao was trapped in the Liquan camp and had to make some concessions to Qiu Shiliang in order to buy grain from Chang'an City. One of them seemed to be a trick of chess, but now it seems to be a carefully designed chess move by Qiu Shiliang.

The agreement reached by Yang Hao and Qiu Shiliang clearly stipulated that Qiu Shiliang had the responsibility to deliver the Princess Li Qing of Yichun to Yang Hao safely. In other words, before that, Yang Hao didn't need to do anything, he just needed to keep his energy and wait for the bride to sleep in the bridal chamber. Now Qiu Shiliang took Yang Hao and was eager to buy food from Chang'an and asked him for the opportunity to change the agreement to make him come forward to encourage the Empress Dowager Guo to agree to betroth Li Qing to Yang Hao, and he would no longer ask about the chores such as hiring and marriage.

Of course, there are many troubles to marry a princess. It is undoubtedly a wise choice to tell the truth and be able to tell the truth.

Of course, with Qiu Shiliang's cunning and his style of planning for the future, Yang Hao was not so naive that he thought he was just out of trouble and ignored it. Experts must have a second move when playing chess and moves.

Although Yang Hao and Qiu Shiliang are both bad chess tricks on real chess boards, he still believes that Qiu Shiliang is quite famous in some occasions.

But the situation was so urgent at that time. If there was no food, tens of thousands of troops would be at risk of collapse every minute. Even if Yang Hao thought that Qiu Shiliang's seemingly calm move would have a fierce murderous intent, he could only interpret it as a foreshadowing that Qiu Shiliang left. Perhaps he would do it in a certain year and a certain month, but it would not harm the present.

So he agreed to avoid trouble.

Now it seems that the premonition was not wrong at that time, but the approach was very wrong.

Li Qing was still in control of Qiu Shiliang and was regarded by him as the only bargaining weight to restrain Yang Hao. Therefore, even if the Empress Dowager agreed and the emperor issued an order, her journey to marriage was still hindered many obstacles.

Qiu Shiliang needs this weight, and he must keep this chip as long as possible.

Since the beginning of spring, swords and swords in the Daming Palace have been killed, and the new king Li Yan doesn't care about it. Yang Hao, who is far away in the northwest, has been watching the wall. Ren Qiu Shiliang killed Li Rong, killed Li Chengmei, and killed all the Yang Party. Even Yang Concubine, who had long disappeared, let him "kill" to ashes.

Someone explained that the reason why Yang Hao stopped moving was that the people killed by Qiu Shiliang were also what Li Yan and his new chief executive of Baoli Society wanted to kill. Qiu Shiliang was happy to kill, and they were also excited to see it.

The Spurs Camp has already gained the upper hand in the fight with the eunuch party. The former enemies are now their ally, and the brothers who once fought side by side have now become mortal enemies who will never give up until they kill them. What's more, Kaicheng, the Yamato and the two societies are not considered ally of the Baoli societies from beginning to end.

There is another reason, perhaps also a reason that is closer to the truth, that is, Li Qing is still in Qiu Shiliang's hands. Yang Hao is afraid of taking advantage of the mouse and does not dare to do anything yet. As for Li Yan, he is still unable to compete with Qiu Shiliang for the time being.

People judged that as long as Li Qing was still in Qiu Shiliang's hands one day, the Grand Marshal of the Five Armies, which dominated the northwest, would not make any big moves unless he had lost confidence in the ill-fated princess. In fact, this was also what Qiu Shiliang was worried about. In order to make Li Qing firmly in his own hands, and not to make his opponent feel hopeless in his plan, he turned around and left.

Qiu Shiliang still took a little effort. While he used both soft and hard work, he persuaded the Empress Dowager Guo to agree to marry Li Qing to the Duke of Xining County. At the same time, he used a little trick and took advantage of a small loophole and set up some small obstacles on Li Qing's journey to get married.

According to Yang Hao's original idea, when Wang Chongwen was alive, he tried to terminate their marriage. Whether he forced Wang Chongwen to divorce his wife or the princess to divorce his husband, in short, before Wang Chongwen died, he returned Li Qing with innocence.

Then, Wang Chongwen's death and life had nothing to do with his marriage. Moreover, Yang Hao believed that after the marriage with Li Qing, Wang Chongwen's wealth and life would be more secure. He even imagined that when he gave Wang Chongwen a clean innocence, he would let him be a separate driver and spend the rest of his life safely.

However, Qiu Shiliang played a trick. Before Wang Chongwen died violently, he did not terminate the marriage relationship between Li Qing and Wang Chongwen, which was in name only.

It seems that this is nothing. If Li Qing can get married smoothly, the divorce procedures can be made up later. Who made Wang Chongwen a prisoner? The Wang family will be out of nowhere?

Qiu Shiliang felt that no matter how hard he tried, no one would (dare to) say anything?

There are many princesses in the Tang Dynasty who divorced and remarried, and countless husbands who remarried after death.

Wang Chongwen is a sinner. Although the new emperor rebelled against him, he was just a commoner. Is he worthy of the princess? Not worthy of it.

Divorce and remarry are not a problem, and remarrying is not a problem when a husband dies. The problem is that there must be a degree in everything. How to master the degree is to do things without obvious qualities.

What is etiquette? Etiquette is the reason, and it is the way of the cycle of heaven and earth. You must be rational and respect etiquette as the emperor, right? Even if you don’t agree with it in your heart, you have to do your best in terms of face.

My Tang Dynasty was prosperous and the culture was prosperous. Widows did not have the bad rules of keeping the chastity for their dead husbands. It is human nature to remarry a dead wife. Even the daughters of the people were more powerful than royal daughters? This is not enough.

But if the husband is busy remarrying before his bones are cold, even the untouchables will not be willing to do so.

Think about it, why are you anxious? I am afraid that all men in the world will die, or are I afraid that the dog will eat the sun and there will be no tomorrow?

Even if your royal daughter does not set an example for the people of the world, at least she cannot hold back.

You want to be strong, do you dare to be strong?

Haven't you seen that a few people with ulterior motives have raised the banner of benevolence and filial piety, stirred up the waves of morality, and instigated a group of guards, staring at you with blood-red eyes, staring at you like a mad dog. Do you dare to do anything wrong? Barking around your house for three days and three nights, and not scaring you to death, or sleeping you to death.

Now you should understand that even a princess cannot be ignorant of filial piety. Before her husband's body was cold, she was busy getting married. If you say this, it would damage the royal reputation in any case. Even if the new emperor cares nothing, he can agree, but what about the three palaces, the old ministers who are old and who are not transformed in ancient times? (Ph...what does it mean to transform in ancient times? We are defending the etiquette system)

Look! The public opinion outside the window is fierce. The men in the world are not dead, and the Tiangou has never come out to eat the sun. You stay first, why do you insist on accuse the Li Tang family of daughter of being indecent?

...

Qiu Shiliang calculated that he could use this light move casually, which would allow Li Qing to give up the idea of ​​getting married immediately. He stayed in Chang'an tremblingly and continued to be the weight in his hand.

His plan was correct. The conservative old ministers who benefited him all jumped out one by one and accused Li Qing of unfilial piety. The crowd was in a hurry. Under the overwhelming saliva, Li Qing finally collapsed and compromised. She decided not to get married for the time being. She changed to a monk and gave the rest of her life to the Qingdeng Ancient Buddha to atone for herself and pray for her husband's spirit in heaven.

The princess and concubines became monks and kept their priests as their first husbands. This was a fashionable thing in the Tang Dynasty. Didn’t Empress Tianwu and Yang Guifei Yuhuan do all these things?

The noisy old men suddenly felt that there was nowhere to ejaculate, and they were all unhappy. Just when they were about to stop, there was a message that made them immediately excited:

"Have you heard that, the princess returned to Hexi to become a monk."

"Will you enter the Buddhist door or the Yang door?"

"No, even if you become a monk, you have to be in Chang'an, Luzhou, and Hexi. It is absolutely not feasible."

The crowd was in a raging mood. But soon the old guys changed their tone and they got another benefit, which was even bigger than the last time.

"Hi, I heard that Wang Chongwen's wet nurse is still alive, she is a 98-year-old blind woman."

"Is that so, that's not easy. Isn't anyone taking care of him?"

"No one, Wang Chongwen was going to give him some money every few days. It's a pity that he died."

"Oh, don't he have a wife who is a princess? Why is the princess not filial?"

"Didn't the princess become a monk in Chang'an or Luzhou?"

"Why are you a monk here? Wang Chongwen's ancestral home is Hexi, Ye Luo returns to his roots. When he returns, the princess should follow him."

"Even if she wants to marry a chicken, she will follow the chicken, marry a dog, and if she doesn't go, she will be more than the courtesy. As long as she is from the emperor's family, we will not agree." A scholar blushed and said, feeling a little excited.

"Yes, I can't agree!" another scholar shouted, his fists clenched tightly.

"You can't agree to this!" The crowd was excited.

"... By the way, Wang Chongwen's wet nurse is really ninety-eight years old?" Suddenly, a timid voice said.

...

...

A few days later, the limelight changed again.

"Have you heard that Wang Chongwen's ancestors were actually from Jingxiao Lantian. Hi, the emperor has issued an order to bury him in Lantian. The princess became a monk in Miaofu Temple nearby, and her Dharma name is Mingxiu."

"The emperor is wise, and the princess's move can be an example in the world."

"Your Majesty is wise, my Tang Dynasty is hopeful."

...

The Xining County Duke Mansion was officially completed in November of the fifth year of Kaicheng. Yang Hao had just returned from Datongchuan at that time. More than a month later than the original time, Yang Hao was not happy at all when he looked at this brand new royal palace.

When they saw Qing'er and her son never came to greet each other, they felt even more unhappy.

He lazily helped Lu Rui, who was kneeling on the side of the road, and said, "I am still satisfied with this mansion."

Lu Rui said: "Don't make a mistake in the county, it's yours, what's the matter with me?" He said: "Stop looking at it, Nan'er-burn, your Ms. Qin didn't come. Am I going to invite her over? Or let them evacuate first, and you go back and take a look first?"

Yang Hao pinched her hand hard and said, "I'm in a bad mood, don't mess with me."

Lu Rui quickly smiled and said, "When I fart, look at your lazy look, it will be very useful in Datongchuan."

Yang Hao rubbed his eyes and said, "That's natural. The girls on the grassland are enthusiastic and unrestrained. They are all right, but they don't have the slightest qualities of our Tang women."

Lu Rui gave him a blank look and said, "No wonder you are so happy."

Yang Hao laughed and ignored her, and said to the greeting official Zuo Fushen: "Everyone please, my new house is completed. What gifts have you brought? Let me see." He held Lu Rui's hand and went to everyone.

Bo Lai gave a box of silver ingots, and Yang Hao said, "Volent, but I like it."

Ma Lida gave a box of gold, and Yang Hao said, "You are more vulgar, but I like it more."

Ji Hongtu gave a two-foot-high coral tree. Yang Hao said: "It's good to appreciate both the elite and the masses. Ji Municipal Government has done a good job. I think it's enough to be a county magistrate." He asked Ji Jiangtu how many people there are in Hongtu Fairy Town. Ji Hongtu had a population of 10,000. Yang Hao said, then you should prepare to be the county magistrate of Fairy County.

Lu Rui curled his lips, smiled and followed slowly. After Yang Hao finished seeing the gifts offered by everyone, he called everyone to enter the hall for a banquet.

The new mansion was completed and celebrated for three days. These days, Yang Hao was drunk and confused. Late at night on the third day, the guests said goodbye, Lu Rui served him to wash. Yang Hao pushed her hard and scolded, "Get out, I want you to take care of it."

He fell on the couch, curled up in a ball, and fell asleep with his head in his arms.

I slept until noon the next day. After waking up, I lay down for a while with my eyes open until I smelled an intoxicating scent.

He jumped up and shouted, "What does Dongfang Lan taste?"

Dongfang Lan said: "The ru is grilling fish outside."

Yang Hao said: "No, no, she doesn't even eat her craftsmanship."

As he said that, he jumped up and walked out. The cold sunshine in late autumn shone on the courtyard. Sure enough, there was a pair of grills and two young women were busy.

One of them was Lu Rui, who was so fumigated by the fireworks that he coughed, and there was another person. Yang Hao glanced at him and his heart was beating: it was Wang Yuner.

Meng's family had lived with them, and the new mansion was completed. Yi Yang asked Lu Rui whether to bring Wang Yuner and his son over. Lu Rui asked him back: "What do you think?" Yi Yang blinked and said: "If you are the orphans who take care of the sworn brothers, you should take them over, but if you take them, you should have a title. Are they servants or masters?"
