The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 655 Return to the Jianghu

There were hereditary titles in the history of the epoch, which evolved from the legacy of the very early aristocratic system. That title and authority were integrated, and the formation of aristocratic families also evolved in this way.

　　Since the previous dynasties, the inherited titles have been downgraded. After a few generations, there will be no titles. If you want to be awarded a title, you have to make meritorious deeds.

.

 But any plan must look at the context. In the context of this moment, that is the most appropriate plan that can stabilize the rear as quickly as possible. It is said that if we really want to raise a group of pigs, it will be a good thing for the court. As for whether the number will increase year by year in the future, we are now in the prime of spring and autumn, and we can continue to operate, step by step.

Tang Wanzhuang refers to no weapons, but actually refers to the Cui family. Even the Tang family can inherit the title of marquis, but what about the Cui family?

Even if Xujue is not as awesome as before, at least your descendants will be guaranteed an iron rice bowl. You will have no worries compared to others. As long as the country survives, you will always have a meal.

With this in mind, do you dare to let go and fight in the new wave, compete with a group of civilians and religious believers for scientific examinations, and welcome the new land tax system?

 The sword has been broken, and it is impossible to restore it to its previous appearance. Can you get down this step?

 If you want to do it, do it as soon as possible. If it’s too late, it will be of no use...

 Compared to Li Shentong's slaughter of all the ministers, the approach here is already the mildest...unless you are determined to establish a new dynasty.

Zhao Changhe deduced it in his mind for a while, secretly thinking that he didn't know whether this method would be useful to Yang Jingxiu or others, but it should have a certain effect on Lao Cui, at least it could be discussed. If we can't come to an agreement, the worst possible outcome is to elope with Yangyang.

Thought of this, he also sighed: "I can try."

Tang Wanzhuang's beautiful eyes fixed on him and whispered: "My husband must be careful when leaving the capital... It's different now. Although my husband is always dazzling, he has not become the key to anyone's eyes and will not use any means." Deal with you. But now, anyone with a clear eye knows that you are the link that maintains this new dynasty...including all the gods and demons in the sky. Their eyes were once attracted by the late emperor, but now their eyes will also be fixed on you, especially since you still hold Book of Heaven…”

Zhao Changhe laughed: "I haven't experienced early pressure in the world for a long time, and I feel a little uncomfortable. What's the big deal among the gods and demons? If I can kill one, I can kill the second one!"

Tang Wanzhuang looked at this guy's fighting spirit, a little angry like a big child, but he also loved it in his heart.

Although Zhao Changhe has changed a lot now, his lawless and unruly spirit has always remained hidden in his bones. What attracts Cui Yuanyang and Tang Wanzhuang are the things that inspire him even more every time he faces adversity. Spirit.

Now Zhao Changhe seems to be the most powerful person in this dynasty, but in fact this dynasty is as fragile as a newborn baby. Whether it is power or high-end force, the pressure it faces is much greater than before. It is truly one of the most adverse situations. , there is a possibility of destruction at any time.

Tang Wanzhuang had previously firmly defended Xia Longyuan, which was also a key point. It is said that Lao Xia caused chaos, which is true. However, objectively speaking, as long as he is alive, there will be no complete chaos. Now that he is gone, it is really a mess... If it is not chaotic enough, it is because of Zhao Changhe In maintaining and cleaning up, this was something that no one had expected before. Only she, Tang Wanzhuang, had foreseen a scaly claw.

The most dangerous person in the world now is Zhao Changhe, but he cannot hide in the Ancestral Temple in the capital like Xia Longyuan because he has too many things to do.

"You...disguise yourself when you should, and don't show off." Tang Wanzhuang finally stood up, walked to the opposite side of the coffee table, gently leaned into Zhao Changhe's arms, and kissed her: "I will be with your lover. Let's assist His Majesty together, and when you come back, you will see the most prosperous and stable homeland."

Zhao Changhe hugged her and joked: "Are you sure you and Qing'er are not tit-for-tat?"

Tang Wanzhuang's eyes flashed with a hint of charm: "I have been fighting with her for fifteen years... Now it seems that the fight in the first half of my life is just a preview of the second half of my life, and we will continue to fight for the rest of my life..."

As he spoke, he slowly whispered in Zhao Changhe's ear: "Remember to come back safely. Then...Wanzhuang and her...will fight on the couch for you to watch."

This sentence is more effective than any warm reminder of "pay attention to safety". Zhao Changhe dares to swear that even if the law of heaven comes in person, he will chop him under the horse with a knife and crawl back to the capital!

 …

 Leaving Beijing on the same day.

As Xia Chichi said, these days may seem ridiculous, but they are actually an important internal stabilization process and are indispensable. But when things are done, I can no longer indulge in the gentle land and try all kinds of permutations and combinations...

The current situation is actually extremely urgent, and there is no chance of being a fool.

The temptation of late Tang Dynasty makeup is actually looking forward to the day when the world will be settled. At that time, I will be happy to accompany you no matter how absurd it is. Sanniang had already left early and went to Huangshaji, where she had been the "collector leader" for some time and had lost her interest.

Although he didn't serve as the leader for long, things were different. It was indeed the base outside the Great Wall of the Four Symbols Sect. There were elite members presiding over it. The situation was relatively clear, and there was also a mobile force that could be used. Once Xuanwu returns, it will be a storm for those outside the Great Wall.

  After all, in the eyes of outsiders, she is really an unfathomable big devil.

Chao Changhe, on the other hand, transformed into the yellow-faced man he often wore in the early days, and went straight to Qinghe across Wu Zui.

Wuzui can fly, but he doesn't dare to fly. This is the most tragic thing nowadays...because it is too eye-catching. Now that I have quietly left the capital for a while, no one knows about it. Once my horse is flying around and falls into the eyes of the evil gods and demons, it will be the same as saying "shoot at me" openly.

 In order to achieve the goal of competing with Suzaku in evening makeup in the future, we still need to be cautious.

Qinghe is only 700 miles away from the capital, and there are no mountains or mountains to hinder it. Zhao Changhe was used to observing the scenery along the way, but this time he really felt the tension in the atmosphere in Hebei.

I went to Beijing earlier. The section from Qinghe to the capital was a prosperous place at the foot of the emperor. Although there were also homeless and beggars, there were many business travelers along the way, with many inns and resting places almost every other section. But this time I found many inns deserted and desolate along the way.

 Passing through some towns, people looked with horror, until they saw there was only one knight and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought it was a war..." In a town wine shop, a drinker at the next table explained to Zhao Changhe: "Brother, you are such a tall horse and galloping wildly. Not to mention fighting, you are also a messenger..."

Zhao Changhe remained calm: "Why are Hebei and the capital at war?"

“Isn’t that something everyone knows? The late emperor was the founder of the family, and Qinghe Cui was a vegetarian... The situation has long been tense.”

“Qinghe Cui cannot represent the entire Yanzhao realm.”

"Almost...the late emperor only knew how to manipulate swords, but he didn't know how to do anything else. After so many years, which big family has not been divided across states and counties? It may be an exaggeration to say that the entire Zhao land belongs to the Cui family. To say it is three points The second thing is, that's not a big problem, the remaining one-third belongs to the Lu family..."

The drinkers at another table joined in the fun: "Hey, you said that King Shura was granted the title of King of Zhao. Does that mean anything?"

“Is this equivalent to granting the Cui family’s territory to King Shura?”

“I think it means something like this, right? Did King Zhao and Miss Cui have an engagement? Now the atmosphere, I think...”

 Zhao Changhe: “…”

This King Zhao was Xia Chichi's emergency plan when Tang Wanzhuang forced her to marry him in public. At that time, she had no time to think about the political meaning of a word, so she just dealt with it randomly with her surname. But as long as someone with a heart can act like this, it seems to be somewhat convincing, at least it’s hard to say what the Cui family thinks...

There seems to be some other troubles during this mission...

The Wang family, Li family, etc. will not let the Cui family and Zhao Changhe get involved in the engagement again, and they will use all means to destroy it.

if it is like this…

"Sir, the wine is here~" The waiter brought the wine and meat with a smile, and said with a smile: "Sir, you have been waiting for a long time..."

Zhao Changhe looked at the steaming mist on the hot wine in front of him with a half-smile, and whispered to himself: "Every time I go out for a meal, I can encounter stories of poisoning and assassination. I haven't encountered them for a long time. I miss it so much... Unexpectedly, Tingxuelou’s tricks haven’t improved a bit yet, which is really disappointing..."
