Comparable to Jin Jian and Da Qing
Lornan.
There seems to be a strange idea in the minds of literati throughout the ages, that is: the law does not blame the public.
Except for the case of rebellion or hatred of victory, which must be held together, the rest of the matter seems to follow the convention of "the law does not blame the public".
The female emperor Nangong Zhenzhen deposed and imprisoned five of the six ministers in one day. This incident made the civil servants feel that something sacred and inviolable in their hearts was damaged, especially for the five years of walking in the officialdom. As far as the above officials are concerned, it has nothing to do with factions, but a matter of principle.
The reason is the same. These officials who have been in the officialdom for more than five years have a steel scale in their hearts: what should be done but cannot be done, what is done will not be punished, and what is done will be punished but can be done. Winning greater wealth, all the scales are clearly engraved on this steel scale, such as urging the empress to get married, it should belong to the second and third possible complexes.
The queen's abnormality is equivalent to breaking the "scale" that the civil service group has maintained for many years. The civil service group thinks that there should be enough tacit understanding between the emperor and his ministers, and the blindness is for the people of the world to see. There are some things in the court. Ah, His Majesty understands in his heart, and the courtiers also understand in his heart.
But the Empress punished five ministers in one day. Originally, the official thought that Her Majesty the Empress was just pretending, and as long as the ministers interceded collectively, Her Majesty would take it back, but they were wrong again, and Her Majesty the Empress did not mean to give them any face.
This made all the civil servants feel that their own interests had been seriously violated. You must know that although the Son of Heaven is in charge of life and death in the world, some face is still to be given. Even Nangong Rang, who was in his prime at the time, did not dare to openly challenge this unspoken rule, and resorted to the technique of checks and balances, so that the imperial court could function for many years.
As a result, this incident became more and more intense, and it became a "contest between the ruler and the minister".
On the first day, more than a dozen civil officials knelt and begged outside the imperial study. On the second day, the number doubled. On the third day, a certain minister knelt outside the imperial study without a trace, but only wore a white cloth strip on his head. , crying hysterically: If Your Majesty insists on doing this, the country will not be a country.
According to legend, when King Wu's husband was attacked by King Goujian of Yue, a loyal minister of Wu State stripped naked and walked out of the city with a white cloth strip on his head. After Wu Wang Helu. While the final result was a failure, among the civilian ranks the behavior was listed as a petition of the highest specification.
If it is replaced by Nangong Rang or any male emperor, there may be room for turning around, but for Nangong Jingnu... Even if she knows this allusion, she still feels that this official is humiliating for the purpose of intercession. Empress Facts.
Nangong Jingnu immediately ordered someone to insert the shameless minister out, with a court stick of twenty.
However... This also completely angered the civil service group, thinking that Her Majesty the Empress was too pushy... On the fourth day of the first day of the first day, half of the civil servants reported sickness at home.
Nangong Jingnv looked at more than half of the vacant seats in the court hall. Although she couldn't see anything on her face, her heart was half cold. She was not afraid, but understood a truth.
Another thing is: these elders of the two dynasties and even the three dynasties are really spoiled, and if they are a little dissatisfied, they dare to not know how to advance or retreat!
Nangong Jingnu neither released the five ministers, nor did she intend to expand the investigation, but silently issued an edict: Hold Enke.
What happened this time made Nangong Jingnu understand: I'm afraid it won't work if I don't start to cultivate my own confidants. Gongyanghuai and Qin De are not enough! Fortunately, I am still young, it is not too late to understand!
Enke is set in three months, and the chief examiner is Qin De, Minister of War.
After this incident, Qin De has no way out. These civil servants are about to dig up Qin's ancestral grave. Qin De's only choice is to be loyal to His Majesty wholeheartedly. There are none left.
Thousands of miles away, Luobei, Linjiang City.
Since there were almost no soldiers in the Wei army who knew the grassland dialect, and the people of the grassland were very hostile to the people of the Wei country, it was difficult to do detailed work and failed to find out where Bayin was.
However, Qi Yan fell ill and had a high fever for a day and a night. The next day, she was miraculously controlled. Qi Yan took the initiative to find Gongyanghuai and asked Gongyanghuai to lead 20,000 elite soldiers and bring herself to call for battle. …
Gongyanghuai: "No, I don't agree! Your body is just right, and where is the battlefield? If you are injured and touched, how do you want me to explain to Your Majesty?"
Qi Yan: "Don't underestimate me, okay? I grew up on horseback. Although I didn't draw a bow after I left the grasslands, when it comes to riding... few can compare to me."
Gongyanghuai: "That doesn't work either. Didn't you say that you have to use it up? Since Your Majesty has created such a convenience for Linjiang City, we just need to wait for the beginning of spring until they retreat. Who is that Bayin? Must see?"
Qi Yan's eyes dimmed, and the amber eyes were still deep and dazzling, but only a little bit of vitality was lost: "Even if they are consumed this year, they will make a comeback next year. From now on. Bayin is my righteous brother. Our family is a family friend. I grew up with him since childhood. I must meet him and persuade him to withdraw from this war with the remaining warriors of the plough. rest assured."
Gongyanghuai: "But..."
Qi Yan: "Baishi, you and I are young classmates, do you want me to kneel down and beg you to agree?"
Gongyanghuai's face changed a few times, he looked at Qi Yan vigilantly, afraid that Qi Yan would really bow down to him, hesitated again and again, Gongyanghuai nodded: "I can promise you... but you can't be too far away from me, more Can't go to the front line!"
Qi Yan nodded: "I promise you."
At noon, Gongyanghuai ordered 20,000 troops, leaving Han Yun to refuse to defend in Linjiang City, and together with Qi Yan, took the army to Jiao County.
Perhaps there is a destiny in the dark, and the location was chosen by Qi Yan, which happened to be the city where Bayin was located.
When I came to the city 30 miles away, I saw Jiaozhou City glowing in the sun. It turned out that Bayin poured a lot of water on the city wall of Jiaojun City according to the requirements of the masked people. A thick layer of ice clothing has also increased the height of the city. The original Jiaojun city wall is very thin and the city is small. After the ice clothing is covered, the city wall is several times thicker, just like a copper wall and an iron wall.
Qi Yan looked at the scene in front of him and said with emotion: "It's a good one to treat others with their own way. In this way, Jiao County has become an important town that is easy to defend and difficult to attack."
Gongyanghuai: "Look at Tiezhu, there is a big crossbow on the city wall, and we are afraid that we will suffer a loss by charging forward."
Qi Yan's body was covered with a thick fox fur coat, and her face was pale under the mask. She suppressed the feeling of coughing and replied, "It's okay, you only need to order a few loud voices to beat the drums in the city. Invitation to fight, let’s just say… the people of the grasslands call themselves fierce tigers, but is there anyone willing to go out of the city to fight against our army commander for 300 rounds?”
Gongyanghuai's eyes were a little weird. He didn't believe in such a simple way of aggression in the enemy army, but Qi Yan said so, it's not easy to refute his face in front of everyone.
Qi Yan coughed a few times, which was one of the reasons why Qi Yan was uneasy. The wounds left by the Wei people in Bayin's heart were too deep. Others might not know it, but Qi Yan knew it. Considering the glory of the prairie people above all personality, if he hears the screams, he will definitely fall for it...
Bayin is brave and unparalleled, but mentally, it is too simple compared to the Wei people. If Bayin died under the calculations of the Wei people, Qi Yan would not be at ease for the rest of his life.
The horn was blown, the drums were deafening, and a line of soldiers came down to the city, shouting and scolding according to Qi Yan's words.
The grasslands were once occupied, and many people in the grasslands understood the official language of the Wei Kingdom. It didn’t take a while to see many soldiers sticking their heads out of the city walls.
Hearing the sound of the horn outside the city, Bayin led Jin Wushu to the city wall quickly. Hearing the noise under the city, he pulled over a soldier and asked in the prairie language, "What did the people under the city say?"
The soldiers understood a little bit, but Bayin's irritable temper was known to the whole army, and no one dared to touch his brow, so they could only pretend not to understand.
Bayin scolded the soldiers and asked Jin Wushu, "What did the Wei people say?"
Jin Wushu has a keen ear and eyesight, and heard the words of the people in the city clearly. Although he was a little scared, he told Bayin truthfully.
After hearing this, Bayin was so furious that he snatched the bow and arrow from the soldier's hand, opened the bow with a "swoosh", and shot directly through a drum. Gongyanghuai said: "Let them continue to scold, don't turn back!"
Gongyanghuai ordered the flag to dance, and the soldiers under the city saw it and continued to yell.
Bayin saw that the "Weiguo Sheep" not only did not frighten away, but instead became more and more brave, and a burst of anger went straight to Baihui: "Let my horse! Open the city gate!"
Soldier: "Du Shi, the queen has orders, we can't send troops without authorization, we have to wait for her order..."
Before the soldier could finish speaking, he was kicked over by Bayin. Bayin grabbed the soldier's shirt with one hand and grabbed him: "She is the Khan King of your Tuba clan, not our plow clan. I made this Du Shi because your Majesty the Queen begged me to give it to me. Don't forget, there are 10,000 warriors of the plow army in this city. We are not like your Tuba clan. The plow army has never surrendered! I'll kill you first!"
Soldier: "All anger, I... I'm going to lead the horse!"
Bayin: "Go!"
Bayin picked up Jin Wushu: "Tell the Wei people in the city to let their coach come out, and I'll go down and pick his dog's head!"
Although Jin Wushu was born in Wei State and grew a few years older in Wei State, he was sent to Bayin during the most important period of his worldview formation. Under Bayin's teaching in the past few years, Jin Wushu has basically disappeared. Treat yourself as a Wei people.
Jin Wushu tugged at his neck and shouted: "The people of Wei in the city listen, let your coach come out, my uncle is going to pluck his dog's head!"
The tender and crisp child's voice could be heard far away, and there was a lot of discussion on Wei Jun's side: "Milk baby?"
"Why do you still have children?"
"Did they kidnap Wei's children?"
"What nonsense are you talking about, didn't you hear this kid called Uncle Enemy?"
Only Qi Yan was excited, it was Jin Wushu! Xiaodie's eldest son Jin Wushu!
Qi Yan was a little annoyed that Bayin even brought such a small child to the battlefield, but then he thought about it, Bayin carried Jin Wushu wherever he went, didn't he just fulfill his promise to him back then
Qi Yan has mixed feelings in her heart, eager to see Bayin and Jin Wushu.
Qi Yan whispered to Gongyanghuai: "Baishi, my sworn brother is in the city, I'm going!"
Gongyanghuai grabbed Qi Yan's arm: "It's too dangerous, I'll accompany you!"
Qi Yan: "You are the commander-in-chief of the three armies. If you are caught alive and punished by the three armies, I will be different. I'm just a supervisor. Besides... Bayin won't hurt me."
Gongyanghuai: "Didn't you promise me not to go to the front line?!"
Qi Yan: "Don't worry, trust me this time. With so many people watching, how can no one go out after we've all called out?"
Without waiting for Gongyanghuai to say anything else, Qi Yan and Ma'er had the same mind, and the horse had already walked out.
The Wei army saw that the frail and sickly prison army actually came out alone, and they talked again, but they were stopped by Gongyanghuai's slamming.
Gongyanghuai knew that Qi Yan wanted to recognize Bayin, so he would definitely take off his mask and let the flag language order call back the pair of soldiers under the city.
In front, is the towering ice city, the siege crossbow is erected on the city wall, and the scimitars of the prairie people are looming among the city piers.
Behind him was a 20,000-strong Wei army in full armor.
Under his feet, there is snow that has not crossed his feet, and the horse's hooves make a "squeaky" sound when stepping on it.
The north wind blows, causing the flags and flags to screeching, and also blowing a smell of livestock. This is the unique smell of grassland tribes. It used to be the smell of hometown that accompanied Qiyan Agula to dream countless nights...
But now Qi Yan feels that the smell is a bit pungent, as if everything has been different.
The winter is high, and the snow is dazzling.
Qi Yan was in a trance for a while, and seemed to have returned to many years ago. Wu Da and Wu Er brought their young Agula back to the grassland, at the foot of Yuanbao Mountain... The original king tent supporting the plough had turned into a huge barn, the smell in the air Much thicker than this time, the animals are trampling the snow, and the whole fence is dirty and muddy...
Agula, however, stared blankly at everything in front of him, and asked over and over again in disbelief, "Where's the king's tent?"
The past is twilight, and it can't be flashed in front of Qi Yan's eyes. It turns out that... I have already experienced so much when I haven't yet reached the age of 30.
There was a rumbling sound, and the opening of the city gate shattered some ice on the city wall, and it shattered to the ground with a "crashing"...
Bayin straddled the black dart-headed horse, holding a steel whip, and in front of him sat Jin Wushu, like an arrow from the string, roaring towards Qi Yan.
Qi Yan was pulled back to her senses by Bayin's roar. Compared to Yu Xiao, Jin Wushu was more like Xiaodie... Children are like one day a day, and they have grown so big.
Gongyanghuai: "Archers prepare!"
Gongyanghuai's heart is already hanging in his throat, Bayin's stature is different, and his horse is much stronger than a normal war horse, like a moving hill rushing towards Qi Yan, on the other hand, Qi Yan Yan's side... didn't even bring a single weapon.
It doesn't take a round, as long as the two are connected, Qi Yan will die on the spot.
However, Qi Yan did not panic at all, just ordered the horse to stop, raised her hand and took off the mask on her face...
Jin Wushu widened his eyes and called out, "Father!"
Bayin was also surprised. He thought Qi Yan was dead, but he didn't want his Anda to appear in front of him in this way, but Ma'er rushed too fast, it seemed that it was too late...
Bayin made a decisive decision, threw away the steel whip in his hand, guarding Jin Wushu with one hand, holding the reins with one hand, and his legs tightly pinching the horse's belly...
With a neigh, the four horses' hooves made long marks on the snow, and finally stopped less than three steps in front of Qi Yan...
The horse that Qi Yan was riding was frightened, and raised its front hooves with a neigh, but Qi Yan was already prepared, adjusted his body in time, and held the reins with one hand to stabilize the horse.
Seeing Qi Yan's graceful figure, Bayin grinned, revealing a row of white teeth, and didn't forget to touch Jin Wushu: "Look, this is your father's riding skills!"
Qiyan Bayin stood on the horse, looked at each other and smiled. Qi Yan's smile was sincere and reserved, while Bayin's smile was cheerful and hearty, and the deep laughter spread far...
Bayin and Qi Yan both got off their horses, and Bayin came to Qi Yan with a pair of big palm-like hands on Qi Yan's shoulders for a while, then took a step back, pressed his right fist to his heart, and knelt down on one knee: "Guchi Bayin see Great Khan!"
Qi Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help Bayin: "Anda, what are you doing?"
Bayin got up and smiled naturally, his eyes full of surprise: "Anda!"
But it was the most common word, but Qi Yan was moved a little.
Qi Yan raised her fist and punched Bayin's chest: "You are confused! Didn't I tell you not to fight again? Why are you fighting with the Tuba people?"
Bayin laughed twice "hehe" and replied, "Avenge you."
"Vengeance for you" is such a stupid word. For the sake of one person, he would not hesitate to pull the entire grassland...
However, listening to Qi Yan's ears is a different feeling, no matter how many harsh words I can't say anymore, this heavy Anda feeling... Qi Yan only feels ashamed.
Qi Yan was silent for a long time, Jin Wushu happily hugged Qi Yan's waist, raised his face, and called out loudly, "Father."
Qi Yan touched Jin Wushu's head, and the little guy grew a notch taller. Qi Yan looked at Bayin and said in a low voice, "Can you stop fighting? Don't fall for the gangster's tricks."
Bayin was stunned, looked at Qi Yan, and seemed to be thinking, and frowned for a while before replying: "Since you are still alive, you are the Khan King of the Zhanli tribe, as long as you give an order, no one from the Zhanli tribe would dare If you don’t follow me, go back with me and meet the people. This time I brought 10,000 warriors to support the plow, and there are still 15,000 in Wulan City. As long as you go back with me, who would dare not to obey your king’s life?”
Qi Yan: …
Bayin: "You are the king of Khan who supports the plow department. You said that if you don't fight the dog, we will not fight the imperial court. We will directly occupy the city of Wulan and take over the old nest of Jiya. When we support the plow department to unify the grassland and regain the old one. Glory, it is also fine to fight with the Gou Imperial Court."
