Linzhi

He Xiu is not as proficient in military affairs as his brother He Zhan, but at least he has been on the battlefield, and knows that his own 2 people alone cannot withstand the Turkic offensive.What's more, before that, Chen Wei had already died in battle, and the morale of the soldiers and horses of the imperial court collapsed thousands of miles away, and it was impossible to clean up.

So he made a decision: announced the disbandment of 2 people on the spot, let them go their separate ways and fend for themselves, and then summoned those who were willing to assassinate Fu Nian with him, and finally assembled a ten-man team to lurk in the city. bide your time.

Ever since Fu Nian entered the city, He Xiu witnessed how Chang'an was trampled on. Several times, he resisted the desire to make a move, and hid in the corner of Chang'an street alleys, just for today.

The Turkic people traveled unimpeded and full of ambition. Fu Nian had just captured Chang'an, and it was impossible not to patrol around and show off it as a trophy. He finally waited for this opportunity.

A must!

However, it is not that easy.

There were a lot of Turkic people present, and those who could be around Fu Nian were experienced and brave people. They reacted very quickly. When He Xiuchao chased Fu Nian away, someone had already jumped up and swung Picking up the sharp long knife, with the sharp sound of the blade cutting through the air, it slashed towards He Xiu.

The opponent thought that He Xiu would definitely return to defense, but he didn't expect that He Xiuning would have to suffer this blow, but he would also kill Fu Nian.

But it was too late for Fu Nian to turn around at this time, because there was a person in front of him holding him back, so he had to be distracted to deal with this person first, so there was a natural gap in his back, which gave He Xiuke an opportunity to take advantage of it.

All this happened in the blink of an eye.

If there is someone nearby, there is no time to react to what happened.

"what------"

A scream followed the blood.

He Xiu raised the knife and fell, a strong arm was separated from Fu Nian's body, and fell to the ground, splashing a pool of bright red.

The thick smell of blood floated away instantly.

Fu Nian struggled with the severe pain, but without looking back, the long knife directly pierced the body of the person in front of him.

He Xiu felt a little regretful, if he had been more accurate just now, he might have been able to take the opponent's life.

But now it was impossible to make up for it, more and more Turkic people swarmed up and surrounded He Xiu and his party.

Fu Nian was quickly helped up, and his subordinates turned pale in shock, tore off his clothes, and tightly bound the wound on his severed arm to stop the bleeding. The excessive blood loss made Fu Nian's face pale, but his expression became even more ferocious. He stared at He Xiu and fell into a siege The figure squinted his eyes and spit out a series of Turkic words.

He Xiu couldn't understand what the other party said, but he knew that their situation was not good, and the trip was likely to fail.

Or, even life has to be lost here.

Although he was prepared to sacrifice his life for benevolence, he was very unwilling.

He Xiu shielded the front of his body, and danced his long sword so tightly that the other party had no way to attack. However, they were gradually surrounded by more and more Turkic people, and had to retreat again and again, and finally besieged together, like several ships. A small boat submerged by the sea, even if it fights bravely, still cannot escape the fate of being overturned.

What step went wrong?

He Xiu couldn't figure it out, how did the Turkic people go south overnight, and when Yunzhou fell, even Chen Wei couldn't stop the Turkic people?Is it possible that the Huai Dynasty was destroyed in only three generations, and it was also charged with the crime of being broken by the Turkic people?

In the blink of an eye, countless people and events were recalled in his mind, like a rushing river, reflecting the starry sky, but the most clear and what made him most reluctant to part was little Lu's bright smile.

Even though he later married Li Suian, and even though Li Suian's family background was not inferior to little Lu's in appearance, little Lu's meaning to He Xiu was very different.That was the woman he came from suffering to accompany him to witness happiness. The days with her were so happy that even though many things happened later, He Xiu didn't want to wake up from the dream easily.

He felt that his body was light and light, as if it had been separated from all external objects, and returned to that warm and lazy feeling, as if he was still practicing martial arts in the courtyard of Prince Lu's mansion, while the little Lu family was lying in the bedroom In front of the window, she propped her chin and looked at him with a smile.

The next moment, He Xiu felt the severe pain coming from his body, and he couldn't help lowering his head.

His chest and back were pierced by an arrow and a knife respectively, one in the abdomen and the other in the chest.

The time of death is approaching.

In He Xiu's mind, these four words suddenly emerged clearly.

He was not reconciled, why did he only want to raise eyebrows with his wife, but his wife left him first?Why did he want to make contributions, but was blocked everywhere?Why did the prince finally die, but he still couldn't get everything he wanted?

His wife and children could no longer survive, he could not be crowned prince, and even the court was on the verge of collapse.

A wry smile and blood slowly overflowed from the corner of He Xiu's mouth.

The Turkic people around him slowly spread back, and the long knife fell from He Xiu's hand. He stared straight ahead, and fell to his knees with a thump.

The Turks didn't want him to die so beautifully, so they just kicked him over, and He Xiu fell to the side.

His eyes were still open, but his breath was gone.

The children of the forbidden army who were with him naturally gave their lives here.

The Turks captured the best doctor in the city and bandaged Fu Nian with medicine.

"Have you caught them all?" Fu Nian asked left and right.

His tone was very bad, and he didn't wipe off the blood stains splashed on his face and neck. His expression became more and more ferocious, like a vulture who would choose to eat someone at any time, which made people shudder.

But no one would react calmer than him when one arm was chopped off.

"A total of 12 people were killed on the spot. I was about to ask the Great Khan whether to burn the corpses?"

Fu Nian's eyes fell on He Xiu.

"No, cut off their heads and hang them on the gate of Chang'an. I want the people of the Central Plains to open their eyes and take a good look!"

……

Although the fact that He Xiu insisted on staying in Chang'an was beyond Li Kuan's expectation, it didn't have much impact on him. Even He Xiu's absence, on the contrary, many variables were eliminated, which made his affairs go more smoothly.

Over the years, he has cooperated with the Turks, and he already expected that he was seeking skins from tigers. He knew that the other party could not follow his chess strategy every step of the way, so he received a letter from his subordinates saying that after the Turks occupied Chang'an, they kept refusing to do so. Leaving, Li Kuan also felt that it was expected.

After all, the Turkic people have never seen such a beautiful city, and it is normal for them to be dazzled for a while.

He waited for so many years and didn't care about waiting a little longer.

Li Kuan has always felt that he is more qualified to be emperor than people like He Yu and He Tai, but the matter of becoming emperor, except for the generation that conquered the country with his own hands, the rest of the emperors do not depend on whether they are qualified or capable. It's about whether the reincarnation is good or not.Li Kuan's blood is not bad, he has both the blood of the previous royal family and the royal family of this dynasty, he was born with a title, enough for him to be rich and prosperous for a lifetime.

But he was not reconciled.

He was unwilling to let the world be controlled by people with mediocre qualifications like the He family, and he was unwilling to be naturally excluded from power because he was a foreign relative.Every time he watched the late emperor trouble his brains over his ineffective sons, Li Kuan felt a vicious pleasure from the bottom of his heart: Aren't you a high-ranking emperor? Why can't you find a capable prince?

When He Yu was in power, he could at least maintain the illusion of prosperity at the beginning of the founding of a dynasty, but what about when He Tai and He Mu succeeded?Can they guarantee that He's fortune will continue?A dynasty is powerful. From the previous dynasty to the current dynasty, there is always prosperity and decline. When the emperor is weak and unable to control the inside and outside, there will be countless capable people to replace him.Li Kuan thought, why can't he be one of them?

So he started a chess game that lasted 20 years.

This round is very long, and the preparations ahead are all for paving the way. Li Kuan must be patient enough to get to where he is today. He has already mastered the military power and has a legitimate heir. In the Central Plains, because there will definitely be rebels in the north who will rise up and target the Turks.

The best way, of course, is to support the young emperor in Jiankang, with Li Kuan as the regent, to control the power of the small court, and then watch the fire from the other side, and wait until all parties are almost done fighting, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman.But he also knew that things might not go so smoothly. If nothing else, there would definitely be troubles in the aristocratic family.

"Even if His Majesty has passed away now, and it is urgent to support a new monarch, but with all due respect, His Majesty Ninth Prince is neither a direct descendant nor an elder. Logically, it is not his turn."

The person who spoke was Liu Zhong, Minister of the Ministry of Officials. He was originally a party member of the Eastern Palace, but after the crown prince died in Yunzhou, Liu Zhong had to find another backer. Hurriedly heading south, the Gaomen clan had no choice but to prepare their way back.

The so-called aristocratic family has actually formed its own power for hundreds of years, with fertile land and wealth, and even a small number of private soldiers of its own. Many children in the family are well-educated, or hold official positions, or are celebrities in the dynasty Therefore, in all dynasties and dynasties, no matter who is firmly seated in the Dragon Court, they must win over this group of famous and powerful aristocratic forces.But the Turkic people are different, they don't care whether the opponent is a commoner or an aristocratic family. reason.

For example, the Zhang family in Duling, because Duling is very close to Chang'an and has its roots in Duling, it is difficult to relocate the entire family and even its wealth in a short period of time. Therefore, when the Turkic people came, it was difficult to avoid being impacted, and finally arrived in Jiankang safely. Yes, only Zhang Song's family and a small group of people, the ten thousand hectares of fertile farmland of the Zhang family could not be taken away in Duling, and their wealth also shrunk sharply. They fend for themselves.

Other aristocratic families were also damaged to varying degrees. For example, the Xie family in Kuaiji, which was located in the south of the Yangtze River, was not affected for a while, but the Fan family of Chenliu and the Wang family of Taiyuan were the places where the Turks passed by. Many clansmen died in the flames of war, which can be described as heavy losses.

It is obvious that Liu Zhong said these words not out of his own will, but was pushed out by the Gaomen behind him as a representative. His words represent the opinions of the Gaomen family.

But Li Kuan glanced over Zhang Song, Ji Ling and the others, with an imperceptible sneer in his eyes.

But now, what qualifications do these people have to negotiate terms with themselves?

"According to Zhang Xiang?" Li Kuan ignored him and turned to look at Zhang Song.

Zhang Songdao: "Your Majesty passed away suddenly. There are so many things in the court, and there is an urgent need for a new king to take care of him. However, Liu Shangshu is right. His Highness Ninth Prince is still young and can't govern at all. The most urgent thing now is to find Empress Pei as soon as possible, and find out about your majesty. The cause of death, bring His Royal Highness Ji Wang back..."

Li Kuan interrupted: "Queen Pei has something to do with His Majesty's death. She has fled Xiangzhou now. It's not easy to find someone. Could it be that if you don't find her, you won't need a new king? As for His Royal Highness Ji Wang, I just got a piece of news, and I'm going to talk to a few of you."

He sighed and his expression was gloomy: "His Royal Highness Ji dismissed most of the soldiers who stayed in Chang'an, and took a few people to assassinate Fu Nian, but he was defeated and died. Now his head is hung on the gate of Chang'an."

Looking at the stunned expressions of the few people, Li Kuan said: "My daughter was so sad when she heard about it that she couldn't afford to fall ill. Chief Ji Wang is originally a legitimate prince, but now..."

He didn't say any more.

Zhang Song settled down and said hesitantly, "Since King Ji is no longer here, I should invite King An..."

Li Kuan said indifferently: "King An is far away in Lingzhou, how can I invite you? Under King An, the whereabouts of the fourth prince are still unknown. When His Majesty was here, he didn't even have a title. The most important thing right now is to support the new prince. Your Majesty, to stabilize the hearts of the people, Jiulang from Shufei Li's family is benevolent, elegant and upright, quite similar to Your Majesty, and he is the perfect candidate for the new ruler."

Li Kuan's only miscalculation was that Emperor Jiayou left too quickly and did not have time to issue a will. If he was given another month, the Ninth Prince's ascension to the throne would be justified, instead of being rushed like now.

The current situation is very chaotic, even Emperor Jiayou's coffin has been temporarily parked somewhere, and it is impossible to transport it back to the emperor's mausoleum in the suburbs of Chang'an for burial.Under such circumstances, there seems to be only one candidate for the new monarch, and that is the prince born to Concubine Li Shu. The other party is a baby who can't even speak. In the end, the government still has to be managed by the right and left. This seems to be a choice that is in the interests of everyone. .

But the reason why Zhang Song didn't want to agree was the father-daughter relationship between Li Kuan and Concubine Li Shu. Once his grandson succeeded to the throne, Li Kuan would have a legitimate reason to change his name and seize power. Less, the power will inevitably be more inclined to his side, this is not what Zhang Song wants to see.

"Before His Majesty passed away, he did not appoint a new monarch. After the Turkic people are expelled, the imperial court will return to Chang'an sooner or later. At that time, it will not be too late to choose a new monarch." Zhang Song said slowly, "At the moment, I am with you. Li Xiangzai, you can follow the old rules and continue to maintain the operation of the court until the world is stable."

Those who supported Zhang Song agreed one after another. Of course, many of them had already become Li Kuan's accomplices, and they refuted it.

Li Kuan sneered secretly.

Of course he knew what Zhang Song was planning, it was nothing more than seeing that King Ji was dead, and wanted to support King An to ascend the throne instead.But the other party didn't even think about it, does He Rong need them?If He Rong wanted to cooperate with the aristocratic family, he would have done it in Chang'an. Why did he go all the way to Lingzhou to open up wasteland?At that time, everyone said that He Rong was neglected by Emperor Jiayou, but only Li Kuan could see what he was thinking.

It's a pity...the two of them have no chance to join forces after all, otherwise what are the difficulties in front of them?

After the discussion was over, Liu Zhong found an excuse to meet Li Kuan.

"Forgive me, Mr. Li. What I said this morning was not intended to be against you. It was really forced by the situation and I had to do it."

Fan Yi from the Ministry of War stayed in Chang'an with He Xiu, and his whereabouts are unknown now; The people of An Wang He Rong are not close to the family, and they are not close. As for the Ministry of Punishment, He Xiu was originally in charge, and now there is no one to replace him.

In the past, the factions in the court were divided, but now because of the turbulent situation, the dead and scattered, it has become disorganized, and only Li Kuan dominates.

Liu Zhong also saw the irreversible decline of the family, so he hurried to show his favor to Li Kuan.

It's better to stand in line sooner rather than later.

Li Kuan knew what Liu Zhong was thinking without guessing, he smiled, and sent the other party away with a few perfunctory words.

As soon as Liu Zhong left, his staff came in behind.

"How?" Seeing him, Li Kuan's expression became a little more serious.

Mr. He cupped his hands and said, "Two rebel armies rose up in Taiyuan and Luoyang respectively, fighting to expel aliens and restore the banner of rivers and mountains, but according to the information I've heard, these two rebel armies seem to have the support of the family behind them .”

Li Kuan nodded: "Unsurprisingly, wherever the Turkic people went, the three branches of Taiyuan Wang, Chen Liufan, and Duling Zhang were the most severely damaged. Now that the court is going south, they must find ways to save themselves and will support them. It's no surprise that the rebels beat the Turks. Where's He Rong?"

Mr. He said: "I have already sent someone to deliver what you said, but, sorry for your stupidity, how much can this thing do?"

Li Kuan smiled: "I don't know how much it can play, but now that He Rong is forcing the Xiao family back, with his ability, it is not difficult to destroy the Xiao family. The Turkic people went south and have no time to take care of him. If he I thought, I can hide in the north to strengthen my strength, I can't let him do this, otherwise I will create problems for myself in the future, so I have to try every means to force him out, go to war with the Turkic people, and let them consume each other."

Mr. He asked: "What about King Xing? What should we do if King Xing refuses to obey his orders?"

Li Kuan said: "As long as He Rong goes to deal with the Turks, don't join He Zhan. With the strength I have now, it is not difficult to deal with a He Zhan, let alone King Wei."

Mr. He was puzzled: "King Wei? He is not busy watching the fire from the other side to watch the excitement, and he will listen to you?"

Li Kuan: "King Wei is timid and fearful. He wants to be an emperor, but he doesn't have the courage to be an emperor. Since he dare not stand on his own, he can only listen to me."

Mr. He nodded. He has always been convinced of Li Kuan's judgment, so naturally he had no doubts. Suddenly, he thought of something. Mr. He nodded, and then thought of something else, hesitatingly said: "Although Fu Nian was not successfully assassinated by King Ji, one arm can was chopped down."

Li Kuan's smile faded a little.

"It's a pity. No wonder Fu Nian hates him so much, and hangs his head on the tower."

Mr. He was puzzled: "Mr. Ji can get away, why would he do such a useless thing?"

"My son-in-law is a bit timid, I thought he would run away." Li Kuan said, "Since the crown prince refused to let him go to the side, he has been suffocating anger in his heart. After all, he is still a warrior, and his eyesight is always limited. .”

"Unfortunately, it's useless to be bold. He will be a fool until he dies." Li Kuan thought for a while, "Go and tell the people around Princess Ji about this."

Mr. He responded, and couldn't help but frown and said: "But in this way, Khan Fu Nian's anger will be hard to dissipate, and I am afraid that he will not retreat easily."

Li Kuan shook his head: "The advantage of the Turkic people is outside the pass, not inside the pass. You can see that they have been invincible all the way since they entered the pass, but in fact, the battle line is too long, which is not good for them. Instead, it consumes their own strength for nothing. To support war is to conscript troops on the spot, and fight as they go. They use war to support war. At best, they can only collect food, grass and horses, but the number of people fighting is getting less and less. Could it be that they expect the enslaved Central Plains people to help them fight?"

Mr. He was stunned.

……

If you don't care about the situation in Chang'an, He Rong is in a pretty good mood.

Lin Miao's side is progressing smoothly. The army has fought all the way outside Shenwu City, the capital of Liangzhou. It is currently fighting with the Liangzhou army, but good news comes from time to time. It is conceivable that if everything goes well, the Xiao family can be pacified just around the corner.

Ever since Xiao Yu became self-reliant, Liangzhou has always been regarded as a serious threat to the imperial court, but in fact, if the imperial court puts all its strength into action, it will not be difficult for the Xiao family to be defeated. It is just that the imperial court was concerned about the Turks before, and they were afraid that the Turkic people who were allied with the Xiao family would take the opportunity Make trouble, so I have not made up my mind.Now that the Turkic people have entered the pass in a large scale, it has actually contributed to the opportunity for He Rong to pacify the Xiao family, which can be regarded as a mistake.

But this does not mean that He Rong can save worry and effort. On the contrary, these days he not only has to pay attention to the movements of the Turks from time to time, but also discusses with Xiao Zhong, Ying Ziyu and others the route and strategy of the future crusade against the Turks, weapons, Food, grass, and war horses are all important factors that determine the outcome of a long-term war. Ying Ziyu and Xiao Zhong have not had a full night's sleep for almost a month in order to intensify their military training. He Rong is not much better, and often studies all night Map route, study which way is better to attack the Turkic people, then he will miss He Zhan even more - the opponent's ability to fight is better than him, if he is there, He Rong doesn't have to worry so much.

The news from Chang'an was becoming more and more pessimistic day by day. Sometimes, in order not to affect Ying Ziyu and Tao Xuan's preparation for military training, He Rong deliberately suppressed some news. Anyway, even if they knew it now, it would be useless.

After staring at the map for a long time, He Rong felt a little dizzy, couldn't help but raised his head, and saw the roses planted outside, so many and brilliant, as if smiling like a beautiful woman, he remembered Wen Jiang who was still in Chang'an, and he didn't know what the other party had. Didn't follow Yujia, is it safe now?

For a while, he lost the mood to think about the strategy again. He Rong felt that his chest was a little stuffy, so he picked up the bamboo stick at hand and planned to pour some water on Qiangwei.

Although those flowers are mostly raised by nature, but the weather is so hot, a little water can always grow better, right?

But before He Rong reached the door, a guard came outside, holding a long box with both hands, and on top of the box, there was another letter.

"Where did it come from?" he asked.

"Return to Your Highness, the letter was forwarded from Lingzhou." The guard said.

Needless to say, He Rong has already seen the inscription above.

He Zhan.

"He sent the box too?"

The guard shook his head: "The box was sent by someone from the south. The other party refused to reveal his identity, but said he was an old friend of His Highness. He handed it to a young lady at the door, and he left."

"Understood, you go down." He Rong nodded and waved away the guards.

As usual, He Zhan's letter is the best moment for him to relax. Although the two brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, through the letter, through the words of complaints or coquettishness, it seems that He Zhan is really in front of his eyes.

But now, He Rong really doesn't want to read the other party's letter.

Counting the days, the situation is unpredictable, and the two have not communicated for nearly a year.

He had also intentionally asked people to inquire about He Zhan's movements, and he felt relieved when he learned that he had been in Lingnan, but the situation was getting worse and worse. I'm afraid Wulang couldn't sit still in Lingnan, right?

A short year seems to be longer than ten years.

At this point in the world, the letter will definitely not be romantic or romantic.

He Rong sighed and started to open the letter.

I don't want to watch it, but I still have to watch it.

In case something important...

The envelope was opened, and a piece of letter paper was lightly pulled out.

The large area above is blank, only a few words are written in the middle.

Why not save?

Only four words.

Vigorous through the back of the paper, we can see the force with which the writer wrote the letter, and the resentment in his heart.

There is no antecedent, no consequence, but He Rong knows what he wants to ask.

The other party wanted to ask, why He Rong had the ability to send troops to assist Chen Wei and prevent the Turks from making further progress, but why did he hold back his troops.

At that time, although He Rong led people to Ganzhou to help Ying Ziyu, Lingzhou still had soldiers and horses, so if he wanted to divide his troops to help Chen Wei, it was not impossible.

Between "possible to send troops" and "no need to send troops", He Rong finally chose the latter.

This is the origin of He Zhan's four-character question.

He Rong looked at it for a while, expressionless, and put the letter aside.

He picked up the box again.

Inside the box is a scroll.

The scroll unfolded slowly, but there was a painting on it.

The painter is not very skilled, and it can be seen that the painter hastily swiped and brushed in a hurry, but the picture is clear and eye-catching, which makes people understand at a glance.

Mingde Gate, Qujiang, Qinglong Temple, Taohua Bridge.

You can have a panoramic view of everything in Chang'an.

It's just that in front of Mingde's gate, countless heads were piled up and burned.

The corpses of the people slaughtered by the Turks were separated and drifted on the Qujiang River.

Outside the Qinglong Temple, blood was splashed on the wall engraved with Buddhist scriptures. A monk was kneeling beside him, but a Turkic man stabbed his chest through the back.

Beside the Peach Blossom Bridge, a young child was lifted high and was about to fall to the ground. The woman next to him hugged the assailant's leg as a pleading gesture, but her clothes were torn in half by another Turkic man. His skin was bare and his expression was mournful.

He Rong's gaze swept across slowly, and finally landed on the beginning of the scroll.

"Chang'an Evil Ghost Map".

Burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of ugly things in broad daylight, isn't it just the actions of evil spirits?

No signature, no signature.

Judging from the brush strokes, it is not made by a famous artist, but whether such a picture is a famous artist or not is not important.

He Rong doesn't even need to read it again, as long as he closes his eyes, the characters in the picture scroll are already deeply imprinted in his mind, and will automatically re-interpret those human tragedies.

After an unknown amount of time, he opened his eyes, slowly rolled up the scroll, tied it up, and put it into the box.

At this time Tao Xuan hurried in from the door, panicked.

"Your Highness, Your Highness!" He panted, obviously feeling uneasy, but after seeing He Rong, he couldn't help but try to suppress his excitement.

He Rong looked up at him, silently beckoning him to continue.

Tao Xuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, clenched his fists, managed to calm down, and then said: "Prince Ji is dead, and His Majesty, Your Majesty is also dead."

He Rong was silent for a moment: "How did you die?"

Tao Xuan said: "King Ji...stayed alone in Chang'an, tried to assassinate him, failed, and was killed."

He glanced at He Rong, did not dare to say that the other party's head was hung on the tower, and said: "Your Majesty died of a sudden illness. It is said that it is related to Empress Pei. The court has arrived in Jiankang and announced to the world that , Said that Empress Pei conspired against the emperor and murdered the emperor."

Tao Xuan felt that Wang An's reaction was a bit wrong.

It was too peaceful.

Tao Xuan was so calm that he even suspected that he didn't listen.

But the other party hummed.

Then he saw He Rong put the box in his hand aside, leaning on the table to get up, when he suddenly leaned forward with his upper body, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

The author has something to say:

Explain two points:

1. The decline of the aristocratic family began in the middle and late Tang Dynasty in history. It was also due to various wars, such as the Anshi Rebellion, such as the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. So in the Song Dynasty, the so-called hundreds of years of aristocratic families were no longer like the two Jins Sui and Tang Dynasties were able to threaten the royal power at that time, many gradually disappeared, and some were scattered to escape the war.There is also such a war in this article, so in fact, Li Kuan's introduction of wolves into the house objectively broke the monopoly of the aristocratic family and made their power smaller. Later rulers objectively cleared the way.This point, because some friends will not be able to see it if they don't read the text carefully, so I will explain it in particular.

2. As for He Rong telling Xiao Zhong that Ah Qing changed his mind, that was obviously trying to buy people's hearts. In order to impress Xiao Zhong, it doesn't matter if others think it's fake or not, but he knows Xiao Chong likes it, so he prescribes the right medicine.Although He Rong is the protagonist, he is not a character who is upright in everything. Although he has a bottom line, he also has selfish intentions. Don't always regard him as a very positive character like Shen Qiao.
