Crown Tang emperor

Many people didn't say anything, but they were not optimistic about King Yong's strategy of setting chaos this time. 10,000+ people, most of them are Hakka people, rioted in Chang'an because they were short of food and clothing. Even if they are calmed down, how can their deeper demands be satisfied?

Will the local state and county accept the original domicile?Registered as a land register, are there so many land resettlement around Chang'an?

But Song Jing felt that it was because there was nothing human could do, that someone had to dare to do it!His Royal Highness King Yong has this responsibility, so if he doesn't donate all his willpower, who will he give up?

Thoughts turned in her mind, before she knew it, the drums had already sounded twice, but when Song Jing raised her eyes to look at Mingde Gate, she found that there were few people walking out at the city gate, most of them just bound their feet at the gate Inside, but still dare not go out.

Seeing this scene, Song Jing couldn't help feeling a little impatient. No matter how well-prepared he was for the relief, if these people didn't leave the city at all, it would be useless.

After pondering for a while, he rode his horse towards Qibi Ming, the chief of the formation here, and said, "Chief Qibi, the rioters in the city are afraid of guilt, and they are afraid of the power of the army, so they dare not go out lightly. Can you Let the battalion soldiers restrain their edge a little..."

"Is this what you mean, or His Royal Highness King Yong's decree?"

After hearing the words, Qi Biming raised his eyelids and glanced at Song Jing.

"Yes, it's me..."

As soon as Song Jing opened his mouth, Qi Biming waved his hand and said: "Needless to say, how could you be able to deal with all the distracting thoughts of the world? Accepting surrender is like meeting the enemy. If you don't declare it with prestige, how can you know it because of fear! Go out, enter the city for a while in the afternoon, and they will know that His Royal Highness King Yong's benevolence is precious."

Hearing this, Song Jing couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. Before leaving the camp early in the morning, His Royal Highness King Yong had indeed given such instructions. The people should caress him, but he shouldn't flatter him. kill.

After returning to his position, Song Jing also secretly warned himself. He took the pre-set goals too seriously, and was afraid that he would not be able to do well in the affairs assigned by His Royal Highness King Yong, so that he would get a little out of order, so it was a bit rash to speak just now.

But how can there be only one possibility for a major event involving 10,000+ people.Those who really control the overall situation must naturally be prepared to deal with various variables.

Right now, the army has set up a surrender position. If the people retreat because the people have not been out for a long time, it will undoubtedly give people a false impression that the army dare not attack. As long as they gather together, they can make more excessive demands.Even if the masses can be drawn out, it will be detrimental to the subsequent resettlement.

After realizing this, Song Jing couldn't help feeling that the world is difficult, and many times a good original intention may not necessarily lead to a good result.

His Royal Highness King Yong is not greedy for one way, but is prepared with both hands. No wonder he can control the general situation and have a high reputation. Although he is far younger than himself, when it comes to broad and profound minds, he is far behind him.

I was only appreciated by His Royal Highness King Yong for helping the troubled people, but if I was going to follow for a long time and conspire with each other, I still had a long way to go.

"His Royal Highness King Yong is really a beautiful weapon of the country. The deeper you feel, the more you will admire him!"

Song Jing turned his head and looked at Bashang's position, blocked by the city wall, of course he couldn't see the banner of the Chinese army, but it didn't prevent him from growing more and more admiration for His Royal Highness King Yong.

But when he turned his gaze back to Mingde Gate and saw the people who were hesitant to move forward, Song Jing couldn't help sighing secretly: "You don't know how lucky you are, if it wasn't for His Highness King Yong who led the army to put down the chaos this time, The streets of Chang'an City are already full of corpses. If His Highness really intends to harm you, can staying in the city prevent the army from killing?"

In Chang'an City at this time, there was also a scene of anxious people.Many people are whispering whether they should go out of the city, and whether the army of the king's division outside the city will obey the order and not harm them.

"Sanlang, do you think we should go out or not?"

Inside the overcrowded Anhua Gate, a group of villagers also surrounded Liu Yu and asked nervously.

Liu Yu's expression was still quite haggard. When he heard people's questions, he just sighed and said, "It's not up to us to kill or not. There is no difference between inside and outside the city. In the current situation, whether to come out or not, it is still up to everyone Calculating. I don't know whether the road ahead is life or death, and I really dare not speak casually."

Saying this is tantamount to not saying it. Of course, even if Liu Yu's words are conclusive, everyone may not follow his words.If there is still some blind trust in the orders of the officers and soldiers, they will not cause trouble in Chang'an.

"Sanlang, what are you going to do again?"

Everyone was still bowing their heads and pondering, but they saw that Liu Yu was already walking towards the crowded city gate, and he hurriedly opened his mouth to ask.

"I want to go out of the city. Brother is lost in the city. Whether he is dead or alive, he must ask the officers and soldiers. The sooner he leaves the city, the sooner he asks."

Different from everyone's hesitation, Liu Yu didn't take his own life and death seriously, but just wanted to know the news of his brother.

Hearing what he said, another villager shouted: "Sanlang, don't be rash, your wife is waiting to give birth in the village, if you die here..."

"I've already said that if the officers and soldiers want to kill us, we won't be able to survive no matter inside or outside the city. If we stay here, we'll just suffer more."

Liu Yu said without turning his head, and laughed miserably: "I'll take a step ahead, if you still can't decide, then stare wide-eyed to see whether I will live or die later."

When everyone heard this, they were speechless for a while, but in the crowd next to them, someone pointed to Liu Yu and said: "A strong man has courage, I will go with you! We Sanqin Erlang, born with courage, died in England Bone! The marshal who led the army to stop the chaos is said to be a famous king of the Tang family. If he is truly benevolent and lives me, I will respect him all my life. No loss!"

While speaking, the man stretched out his arms, pushed away the people blocking the surroundings, and strode towards the city gate with a bit of pride.

In fact, there are many people who despise life and death in every city gate and are ready to leave the city, but most of the rioters in the city gather in front of the city gate, making the roads extremely congested, so there is no crowd rushing out at the first time scene.

But with the sound of the third drum, people came out of the city gates from all sides one after another. Although there were not many in number, each of them walked firmly and with a good spirit, which also attracted many eyes from inside and outside.

"Xijing is in turmoil, the etiquette is desolate, the government and the church are not cultivated, the upper and lower levels are out of balance, and the wealth is uneven. The long-term evils are far from being relieved in a short time. Although the army has ordered the whole city, there is no optimism for those who can really obey the orders. If a single order can resolve the stalemate, there is no need to intimidate with a large army."

In the Bashang camp, Li Tong rode his horse out of the camp. While walking, he said to Guo Da, Li Yi and others behind him: "Scholars always despise the common people with poems and books, flaunting etiquette and righteousness, but this is only for the wise. Boasting. Ling Dong never fades, he advances despite difficulties, and his true strength of character can only be revealed in the event. For example, how many people in the world can do the sword of the Xuanwu Gate in Shilang's old days?"

Guo Da was recuperating for more than a month after being seriously injured, and his body is still very weak. Right now, he can barely ride his horse and walk slowly. When he heard His Highness tell the story, his face showed a bit of embarrassment: "I didn't think too much, I just knew that Your Highness used me. report."

"People are different in every way, and the beauty lies in the ability to use it. A person who is knowledgeable and resourceful may not be as loyal as a little bit. There are no talents born by mistake in the world, only those who cannot be appreciated. Owner. Everything is waiting for you in the coming year. You are all close to me. It is inevitable to share the consul's work. You must have the ability to know people and use others."

While speaking, Li Tong pointed to the front again and said: "For example, the first batch of people who stepped out of the city gate either had the wisdom to judge the time, or the heart to return to governance, or the courage to lighten death, or the courage to do something brave. They may be just small men in the grass, but if they take this step, they may reach the other shore. Song Jing's previous efforts to use the power of the common people are mostly from such people. But these people may not all be together For general affairs, you will go to various city gates later to collect registration names for future use."

After everyone heard the words, they nodded their heads.

At this time, Yanxing Gate in the east of the city sent another army envoy to report back, and the lords of Daocheng once again asked to come out of the city to see them.

"Then let them come."

After thinking for a while, Li Tong nodded and said, then turned his head and said: "Let Pingyang Gong receive the people from the various families."

Duke Pingyang is Wu Youyi, and now the state belongs to the Tang Dynasty. Wu Youyi's original title of Jian'an Prince was also taken away, and he was transferred to the Duke of Pingyang County. He is one of the best among the remnants of the Wu family. The others either died or were demoted, or closed their doors to be punished.

Li Zhan has been holding back bad ideas to deal with those people, but now he can't help but put on eye drops and said: "Those people are eager to go out of the city to meet, there must be some unreasonable requests. Now the situation in Xijing is under control, see or not They really don't matter much."

"It's always necessary to see each other. After all, the Guxun family, it's better not to be too cold."

While Li Tong was talking, he also ordered: "The information on the waters in Xijing will be milled, and you will pass it to Pingyang Gong later. He knows how to do it. After the people from the family leave the city, they will immediately close the Yanxing Gate, and no inside or outside is allowed. A few more heavy crossbows were erected on Yanxing Gate. Two thousand cavalry from the Chinese army moved outside Yanxing Gate and waited for orders to enter the city."

Li Tong guessed that those people might see that they were too lenient to the rioters, so they had some unrealistic fantasies in their hearts. If they were still blocked in the city square, they would not know what bad ideas they would come up with when they got together.It's better to lure people out, let them recognize the facts through practical attitudes, and accept the slaughter obediently.

It's one thing for him to hold hands with people like Xijing, but if the food looks too ugly, Shendu's side will inevitably criticize.Right now, his foothold in Xijing is not stable, and it is still inconvenient to have too much trouble with God.So even if you want to deal with these people, you have to find some reason that Shendu can't find fault.

Chapter 0533 old things are not weapons, can kill local thieves

The Yanxing Gate in the east of Chang'an City is located on Leyouyuan. Because the Zuojinfang district is populated by rich and noble families, they have not been greatly affected by the riots in Chang'an City.So even though the city gates on all sides have been opened for traffic, Yanxing Gate doesn't gather too many rioters like other places.

But even so, Wang Shi's army did not relax the supervision of Yanxing Gate.A huge bed crossbow was erected on the top of the city, and there were many soldiers stationed inside and outside. The atmosphere was tense and the scene was chilling.

However, those nobles from Chang'an who first gathered here and waited to go out of the city to meet His Royal Highness King Yong were not in the mood to guard against them with the same attitude of Master Wang as guarding against thieves, but anxiously waited for the military order to allow them to leave the city.

"Everyone must keep in mind what was discussed before, otherwise we will inevitably wait for the furniture."

Seeing the towers going up and down, the sergeants were still nervously lining up, and everyone present was also extremely nervous, and couldn't help emphasizing each other to remind their companions.

Of course, this is all nonsense. Ever since Li Zhan entered the city, King Yong did not show any good attitude towards them, which also made them dare not have any illusions. Trivialize.

"Oh, let's get into this situation as soon as possible. At that time, Dou Xuanfu asked, so he should agree first..."

While waiting, a person in the crowd suddenly said quietly.

After hearing this, everyone present couldn't help being silent.

Guan Long Xungui is a very large group in itself, and the family with the longest inheritance can even be traced back to the Western Wei and Northern Zhou Dynasties.Over hundreds of years, the number of artifacts has changed, with ups and downs, the first mover falls, and the latecomer takes the lead. This is also a common thing.

Although all the families now take Guanlong as the foundation of their family business, they are far from being harmonious and intimate. They may have good family relationships with each other, but there are also feuds. Even within a family, there are differences in closeness due to distance. Even old and dead do not communicate with each other.

Moreover, in today's Guan Long Xungui, there is no such leader as Changsun Wuji who responds to everyone and everyone is convinced.

For these nobles from Guan Long, the return of the imperial line to Chang'an, and Guanzhong becoming the center of the world again, does have certain benefits, but whether the so-called benefits can be realized is secondary, and the key is not necessarily worth it. To strive for the price.

Among other things, the Dou family in Xijing suffered disaster last year, and the honorable families they stayed in Chang'an to manage also took advantage of the fire to loot and share the benefits.

Once the emperor returned to Chang'an and the Dou family was revived again through their in-law relationship with the emperor's heir, should they return the township assets they occupied?Even if it is returned, will the Dou family continue to retaliate?

If Dou Huairang returned to Chang'an as a prime minister and had enough power and wealth to balance and reconcile the interests and disputes of various families, they would of course be happy to see the results and would be willing to donate to help.

But Dou Huairang is only a mere Xuan Fu envoy, and it really doesn't deserve too much attention from people like Xijing.Face must be given, it's nothing more than welcoming and seeing off the scenery, but Dou Huairang only has one mouth, so how can it be worth their investment?

Of course, this was the consideration made by various families in Chang'an before the Xijing turmoil broke out.But at that time, no one thought that those ant people would have such courage, nor did they think that King Yong would lead the army to put down the chaos, let alone that King Yong would put down the chaos in such a way.

Now it seems that they are indeed short-sighted and unwise.He rejected Dou Huairang's request, but he still couldn't avoid being exploited by King Yong. In the end, he let their blood go to feed the rebellious ants.And King Yong's tens of thousands of troops were in charge, and his attitude and methods were much tougher than Dou Huairang's.

After a long silence, someone still sighed and said: "I don't need to say more about the missed opportunity. Everything must be considered for the future. King Yong is currently controlling Chang'an, and there may be no room for nostalgia, but if another person who is familiar with the situation in the pass is replaced, We may not be able to cope with the present."

After hearing this, everyone's expressions softened slightly.

Yes, there are advantages and disadvantages in everything, and the development of the situation to this point is unpredictable.Even if the time goes back to before the Xijing turmoil broke out, and they are given a chance to choose again, they will still choose this way.

Even if you donate property and materials to help Dou Huai make things happen, you may not get any return.On the contrary, since the Dou family was originally a wealthy family in Guanlong, once Dou Huairang's greed and desires were unsatisfactory and he continued to increase his demands on them, it would be even more difficult for them to resist.

At least something like stealing the official treasury, it is absolutely difficult for them to do it under Dou Huairang's nose.

As for King Yong, he didn't have much contact with people in Xijing. This can be seen from King Yong's attitude towards the rioting people in Chang'an.Even if they discovered some of their small actions, they might not dare to pursue them to the end, causing a new round of turmoil in Chang'an.

So, now everyone just needs to grit their teeth and report to King Yong according to the previously discussed words. Even if King Yong has any doubts, he dare not have any overreaction without conclusive evidence.After all, although those materials were turned around, they still fell into the hands of King Yong, and they made some additions.

"Mr. Yin must remember the foreword. After meeting His Royal Highness King Yong later, he needs to give us an explanation!"

The formation of the army outside the city was about to be formed, and someone looked at the Yin Gong and said coldly.

After hearing this, Mr. Yin nodded slightly, and raised his eyes to look at the crowd: "Everyone, please rest assured, what you have done before is just for peace of mind. Naturally, I also know that public anger is hard to deal with. After dealing with the difficulties in front of me, I will keep those things in my hands." It's just complaining."

At this time, more than a dozen knights rode their horses and charged into Yanxing Gate, everyone shut up knowingly when they saw this.

Before the military envoy entered, he looked around at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Is it only the people in front of you who enter the camp to pay homage to His Highness King Yong? Your Highness has heavy military affairs, and all the soldiers are on duty, but there is not much time to meet and see him off!"

Hearing that the military envoy's tone was not polite, everyone cursed inwardly, but an old man stepped forward and said: "The families in front of you are guided by the military envoy."

In Chang'an City, there are more than a hundred noble clans with famous names and surnames, and the dozen or so people in front of us naturally cannot cover all of them.

They are only a small part of them, and they are not too core members of the honorable group. The only thing they have in common is that Li Zhan visited and blackmailed them when he entered the city.

Facing King Yong's levy, they were reluctant to part with their family assets, and they dared not refuse King Yong, so they got together to play that trick.As a result, he was troubled by this again, and was eager to meet King Yong, wanting to eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible.

As for other families, even if they are in awe of King Yong, at least they don't have such an urgent need to see King Yong before the turmoil in Xijing has completely subsided.

"That being the case, then come with me."

After the military envoy heard the words, he signaled everyone to get on their horses, and followed them to the Bashang camp.

After being trapped in the city for a long time, as soon as they left the city, the representatives of those families in Xijing saw another thousand cavalry brigade galloping towards Yanxingmen before they had time to feel the atmosphere of freedom.

Seeing this scene, everyone's heart trembled.Although they don't know the situation of the other city gates, when they walked out of Yanxing Gate just now, they saw that the defense was heavily guarded, which had already far exceeded the standard of general defense and vigilance. What's your idea?

Generally speaking, there is no need for Yanxingmen to station so many troops.After all, due to the rich and noble families in the east of the city, there were almost no riots.King Yong deployed so many troops at Yanxing Gate, is it because the troops are already sufficient, or do they have other intentions?

Everyone already had ghosts in their hearts, and at this moment they were even more suspicious. One person bravely rode his horse to the side of the military envoy and said with a forced smile: "May I ask the military envoy, how many troops will be under the command of His Royal Highness King Yong when he marches westward this time? The military supplies are insufficient, and we can still recruit other families in the city to help the military..."

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"

The military envoy reprimanded without turning his head after hearing the words, he was a soldier who was born in Beiya Qianqi, even if he knew that these people were of good status, he didn't pay much attention to them.

After being reprimanded, the man didn't dare to get angry, but retreated to the team and whispered: "The situation seems to be a little bit bad..."

Everyone became nervous after hearing the words, and one of them whispered: "Will King Yong know..."

"Silence!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he was scolded by his companions.Although I was surprised and suspicious, but now that the city is out, I can only bite the bullet and continue to move forward, but in the process of moving, there is a faint distance between each other, and they are no longer as close as they were when they first left the city.

The Bashang Camp is not far from Chang'an City, and it is already in sight after a short time.It's just that all the armies have been sent out at the moment, so the huge camp inevitably looks a bit empty.

Seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but panic even more.Judging from this posture, King Yong's army doesn't seem to have enough leisure. The two groups of cavalry they saw on the way just now should be the guards of the Chinese army.

What is the reason that King Yong would rather let the battalion defense be empty, and send many unnecessary troops to Yanxing Gate?dare not think, dare not think...

Now that they have reached the gate of the camp, even though they already have a sense of crisis in their hearts, they have no room to retreat.And as they entered the camp, another group of soldiers from the Chinese Army camp rode up to greet them, but after seeing the face of the general surrounded by these sergeants, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice: " King Jian'an..."

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, even though they haven't talked to each other yet, when they saw Wu Youyi walking from the opposite side, everyone's expressions became very ugly.

"Oh, I don't know who is so eager to see His Royal Highness Yong, so it's your family!"

Wu Youyi rode his horse forward, and when he turned his gaze, a smile appeared on his face.

He had stayed in Chang'an for more than a year as a stay-at-home in Xijing before, and he knew a lot about these people in Chang'an City. With such a sweep of his sight, he already had some confidence in his heart. Looking at everyone, he said with a smile: "Who am I? Do you want to introduce more?"

"I have seen the king!"

Everyone in Xijing got off their horses one after another and bowed their hands to Wu Youyi, but doubts gushed out in their hearts. Didn't it mean that the gods were revolutionized, and King Yong personally killed all the members of the Wu family. How could King Jian'an still be alive and return to Xijing with King Yong's army?Judging from his posture, he didn't look like he was being detained by King Yong, but he looked like he had quite a status in the army.

"The revolution in the capital of God is known all over the world. How can it be called by the old name? You are shouting so that I will not be tolerated by the world!"

Wu Youyi stared at the words, and his face immediately turned down. When he was in Xijing earlier, he often dealt with these people, and he knew how to intimidate these hard-headed guys, so that they would know the fear and obey orders obediently.

When everyone heard this, their faces changed again, and they hurriedly waved their hands and said, "Don't dare, I've been living in Xijing for a long time, and I can't clearly observe the news of God's Capital. I really don't know..."

"You don't even have the guts! Now that there are no giant bandits in the court, and the old ways are no longer there, I am also grateful for the order, and I dare not rely on my old relatives anymore. I have devoted myself to the tent of His Royal Highness King Yong. , the title of the governor of Yongzhou. This time, I forgive you for the crime you didn’t know, but if there are still evil thoughts, even if His Royal Highness King Yong doesn’t ask, I will never forgive you lightly!”

Wu Youyi put her legs between the horse's belly and did not dismount, but looked down at the crowd and said coldly: "Your Highness is out on patrol, let me receive you and others. We are old friends, don't think that I can't guess what you have in mind Conspiracy and plotting. If you think that His Royal Highness King Yong can cheat and seduce you with little knowledge of his hometown, then you are wrong! Stop talking, since you have already entered the camp, then follow me to enter the account! After all, there will be many words later, and you are not allowed to speak publicly .”

When everyone heard this, they were even more surprised.Although Wu Youyi only spoke vaguely, in their ears, it seemed that every sentence was full of hints, as if what they were worried about was about to happen.

"Is it in the account?"

Seeing that Wu Youyi had turned his horse and headed towards a nearby large tent, everyone stood in place and made eye contact one after another, especially that Yin Gong who had received the most scrutiny, and he himself was also sweating on his forehead.

"Why? Do you want me to invite you one by one in person?"
