Northern Dynasties Imperial Industry

Two days before New Year's Eve, Yu Wentai, who had been suspended for several days, officially went to Weinan Cemetery for burial from Tongzhou Zhongwaifu.

On this day, Li Tai also led his troops back to Tongzhou from Chang'an, and his troops set up continuous memorial tents in the north and south of Weiqiao. The rest of the families also had a large number of memorial tents.

As the founder of the Western Wei Dynasty, Yu Wentai was only one step away from usurping the country and establishing himself on his own. Although he was ultimately defeated and the year was not going to end, Li Tai, the new leader of the Bafu, did not express his intention to liquidate his people and still retain his honor and glory. On this occasion, many people expressed their condolences on this day, making the scale of this funeral ceremony not inferior to that of a state funeral.

The cemetery in Weinan was selected when Yuwentai was still alive and had just contracted the disease. Part of the cemetery had even been constructed, but Yuwentai probably did not expect it to be used so soon. In addition, he was busy with Regarding the expedition, the matter was suspended on the eve of the expedition. During the period of time when the funeral was suspended, some work was done, and now the burial is still honorable.

Accompanied by solemn and heavy funeral music, Yu Wentai's coffin was sent into the tomb and buried until it was buried with the earth above the cemetery. Li Tai also led the civil and military ministers to the tomb, and each offered a memorial in mourning. Then he retreated to the tent outside the cemetery, waiting for the Yuwen family to complete the subsequent funeral ceremony.

"No, don't... I don't want to leave, let me, let me stay here, stay in this house to guard Aye's grave... Please, please, help, help!"

As the earth was covered and the funeral was completed, Yu Wenjue's shrill wails suddenly sounded in the cemetery. Facing the soldiers approaching step by step, he had a look of panic and fear on his face, and he cried out again and again. : "I don't want to die, I don't want to die! King Taiyuan, Li Boshan, I have to be kind to him, my bones are cold, he will harm me, and the world will not be convinced..."

At this time, the soldiers had also approached, but when they saw Yu Wenjue rolling on the ground, he felt helpless for a moment.

Yuwenhu on the side stepped forward, held Yuwenjue down, and then stuffed a ball of flax mixed with mud and grass into Yuwenjue's mouth, making it harder for him to scream, and then he Then he bowed deeply to the high bulging earth and said, "Uncle, you are not alone in the underworld, I am here!"

The armored soldiers came forward and led Yuwenhu and Yuwenjue away from the tomb. As for the other Yuwen family members, they were arranged to enter the thatched tent next to the tomb, where their own battalion of soldiers guarded them.

At this time, the people attending the funeral also left one after another. After the Yuwen family members were escorted out of the cemetery, Yuwenjue was put directly into the prison car and taken to Chang'an, while Yuwenhu was led to the big tent where Li Tai was.

"The sinner Yu Wenhu, kowtow to the emperor, kowtow to Duke Tang!"

After entering the account, Yu Wenhu bowed to Li Taizuo.

Li Tai stood up from his seat and said to Yu Wenhu: "This is the only time I'll see you before we say farewell. Brother Sa Bao doesn't need to be more polite. I promised to introduce him to my brother, but after he enters the customs, he may not be acclimatized. I was slightly ill, and after being diagnosed by the doctor, I have recovered as before. I will leave my brother here to meet my dear relatives and say goodbye."

After saying this, he stood up and walked to the other tent, and asked someone to send Yu Wenhu's mother, Yan, to this tent.

Chief Protector Yuwen knelt on the ground, looking expectantly outside the tent. When he saw an old woman sitting on a chariot being carried into the room, tears filled his eyes instantly. Because of his tearful eyes and blurred vision, he hurriedly raised his hands to wipe the tears in his eyes, and then opened his eyes again. When the chariot the old woman was riding was put into the tent, he opened his mouth to call out but only got a hoarse voice. He hurriedly raised his hands. He covered his mouth and coughed twice, then made a weak voice: "Ah, Amodun, it's Sabao..."

"What did you say? I can't hear you."

The old woman also saw the excited Yu Wenhu. When she saw that he opened his mouth but heard no sound, she raised her finger and pointed to her ear, and then waved her hand in embarrassment, indicating that she was somewhat deaf.

When Yu Wenhu saw this, tears suddenly burst out of his eyes, and he cried out in grief with his head thrown to the ground: "Amodun, I am Sabao, my mother's unfilial son Sabao! "

Yan finally heard clearly now. His slightly sunken eyes opened wide, and he looked Yu Wenhu up and down carefully, and then he opened his mouth and called out: "Sa Bao? My son!"

When the mother and son who had been separated for many years finally met in this tent, Li Tai walked into another tent.

In this tent, Hou Mochen Chong, who had never entered Chang'an to see each other, was kneeling on the ground with his arms bound. When he saw Li Taixing entering, Hou Mochen Chong bowed again and said, "Crime criminal Hou Mochen Chong." I tied myself up and surrendered to the worship tent, begging Duke Tang for forgiveness."

After Li Tai heard this, he just snorted coldly, and immediately said: "I have been waiting in Chang'an for a long time, and Duke Pengcheng has come to see you now. This is not considered a self-imposed surrender. I am not the tens of thousands in Shannan. The army marched forward without moving a single inch. Please forgive me. What should I be forgiven for? Can you teach me?"

Everyone will have different reactions and approaches when dealing with variables. In this incident, Hou Mo and Chen Chong fully explained what it means not to shed tears without seeing the coffin. Li Tai had previously sent a message asking him to abandon the army and join the court, but he had no reaction at all until he saw the coffin. All parties entered the court, and Shannan Road sent more troops to Wuguan, so he finally came to Weinan to pay homage to Yuwentai on the day of his funeral.

Hou Mo and Chen Chong heard that Li Tai's tone was somewhat unkind, so he said in a low voice: "I don't know what crime I committed. All the letters and orders I received from the Chinese and foreign governments were dedicated to Duke Tang, and there was no selfish intention in my actions. He only obeyed orders and didn’t know anything about other disputes. When the Tang Dynasty sent someone to inform him, he knew what he was doing was illegal and he didn’t know what he was doing illegally.”

Hearing Hou Mo and Chen Chong's sophistry, Li Tai couldn't help but sneer again. This is probably his true political level. Among the town soldiers, Yu Wentai and Gao Huan can be said to be relatively heterogeneous existences. To be honest, most of the other town soldiers are not very good at political level. They do not have the kind of ability to assess the situation and take the initiative to welcome changes. political acumen.

When Hou Mo and Chen Chong heard that Li Tai just sneered and said nothing, he felt both embarrassed and worried for a moment, then he softened his tone and said in a deep voice: "Qiancheng of the Duke of Tang Dynasty has now entered the court to serve as Prime Minister. It is naturally expected of everyone. He has no intention of competing for power. We have known each other for a long time, and we have been getting along well in the past. Therefore, when Otsuka wanted to add checks and balances, He still had some suggestions to help Tang Gong. This matter was known to many people in China and abroad. If you don't believe it, you can also consult the members.

The former was ordered to garrison in Weinan, but Tang Gongshi's brigade knocked on the gate and entered without permission. Since he was responsible for a certain duty, he should naturally lead his troops to resist. The Duke of Tang was a well-known and handsome man. It should be known that Zhou Yafu rejected the king Xiliu. If this was used as a crime, I would not dare to resign for fear of damaging the reputation of the Duke of Tang. The title of a title can all be traced back to the previous reasons. The Duke of Tang may know it, or he may not know it. Although someone is clumsy in self-explanation, he must not be lacking in the Spring and Autumn Period! "

These words were so powerful that after listening to them, Li Tai didn't know what to say. Call him stupid, he still knows how to quote Zhou Yafu's story to defend himself, call him smart, he is still glaring to show off his qualifications, and he still speaks plausibly.

"The former returned to the court to put an end to the rebellion. He once said that the guilty must be punished, the punishment should be moderate, and there should be no indiscriminate punishment. All three of these are to show the majesty of my punishment order and no longer only deal with violence, but they are not to tie my hands and feet. , Mr. Pengcheng wants to bully me?"

Li Tai didn't know if Hou Mo and Chen Chong knew the three principles for fighting chaos that he had announced before, but he proposed these three points to create a relatively relaxed and stable transitional atmosphere and ensure civil stability as much as possible, but this applies to Hou Mo. Is Chen Chong such an obvious political figure?

Liu Bang made a three-part agreement with the Guanzhong elders. If Qin II is still alive, he still has to break up with him. Just ask me, am I considered the Guanzhong elder? The violent Chu army seized my family property, will Pei Gong take care of it? Isn’t this stupid?

At this point, he no longer had the interest to continue communicating with Hou Mo and Chen Chong, so he looked down at Hou Mo and Chen Chong and said, "If Duke Pengcheng has a constitutional law to rule on matters, then the three clans of the Duke will Everyone will be rewarded for their crimes, and the guilty will be punished. The family is expected to be destroyed! If you are not a young man, you should know where you are going and take care of yourself. "

After saying this, he walked out, leaving only a dumbfounded and pale-faced Hou Mo and Chen Chong.

When Li Tai returned to the previous tent, Yu Wenhu was leaning on his mother's knees and talking softly. When Li Tai walked in again, a trace of panic flashed in the eyes of mother and son.

The Yan family looked at Li Tai and said sadly: "Tang Gong was so kind that he rescued the old woman in a foreign country and protected her all the way to meet my son again. I beg you, Tang Gong, to show mercy again and don't let the old woman see her baby again and see her again. Please Mr. Tang treated my child lightly, he is a pure and filial man, and he is not a bad person!"

As she spoke, she wanted to bow to Li Tai, but Li Tai quickly ducked away and looked at the mother and son and said: "The old lady's deep love for the calf is touching. But many Guanxi children who retreated in Yiyang, Their parents want to see their son but they can't, so who deserves this hatred?"

"I deserve it. Mr. Tang rescued my mother so that my mother and son could live together. This has been a great kindness to me. I dare not ask for anything more!"

After Yu Wenhu cried and worshiped his mother, he asked Li Tai to arrange someone to lead his mother away. When his emotions calmed down a little, he looked at Li Tai and said seductively: "If, if I had been willing to obey my uncle before, I have ordered to stay in Yiyang to wait for reinforcements, Tang Boshan, will you spare my life now?"

Li Tai avoided answering this, but looked at Yu Wenhu and asked: "I also have a question here. Can Brother Sabao answer me? Brother Sabao knew that today, if he returned to the hunting ground and first met him, would he? Will you kill me, the scourge, with one arrow?”

Yu Wenhu was stunned when he heard this, but then he frowned and began to think deeply. After thinking for a while, his eyes even flashed with expectation, and then he sighed again.
