Chapter 401: Another Yang Guang

  Chapter 401 Another Yang Guang

  Ning Chang, the hero of the Lingnan generation, really did not die in the war against the imperial court.

  After the eight-year rebellion of Wude, the imperial court appeased Ning Changzhen and gave him the throne of Kang Guogong. He also said, Ning, after Uncle Wei Kang.

  Uncle Wei Kang is the ninth son of King Wen of Zhou, the same mother and younger brother of King Wu.

  Being more polite to the imperial court, the special commissioner paid another tribute to Chang'an, Hepu Dazhu.

  Three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and even Feng An never imagined that the rivers and lakes that should have been calm would be turbulent again. Feng An would not inquire about Zhumin riots, Zhunv's poisoning, etc. No matter what the appearance is, as an old Jianghu, he has his own set of judgment rules.

  In his eyes, Ning Changzhen definitely died at the hands of the court.

  The court endured for three years before taking action, one blow would kill him.

   Could this be the true face of the current emperor, ruthless and ruthless, liquidated afterwards?

  Thinking of it, Feng An was really frightened.

What he is most afraid of is this kind of person who doesn't act according to common sense. Dealing with this kind of person will be a headache, especially when the opponent's strength is far stronger than his own, it will be even more terrifying, which means that it is impossible to predict the opponent's behavior trajectory.

   This is somewhat similar to Yang Guang.

  Could it be another Yang Guang today?

Reminiscent of the fact that Ning Daoming, who followed Ning Changzhen in the eighth year of Wude, was also killed by an unknown stateman last year, Feng An became more and more sure. It seems that the imperial court had already launched a murder against the rebellious Ning family. Heart.

First kill Ning Changzhen's brother Ning Xuan's son Ning Daoming, and then kill Ning Changzhen. Now all the rebels in the Ning family have been killed. The rest of the Ning family, on the contrary, is Ning Chun, who opposed the rebellion before. , Seniority is also respected.

   "Mr. Geng, please enter Chang'an!"

  Qin Lang smiled and invited Feng An into the city.

  Feng An took a step, but stopped again.

   "I don't know how the imperial court plans to deal with Ning Changzhen's aftermath?" Feng An couldn't help asking, would the imperial court take the opportunity to swallow up the Ning family's territory?

  After Ning Daoming died, the imperial court decreed to split Ning Daoming's Yuezhou into Yuezhou, Nanhezhou and Jiangzhou.

   "It's not clear yet. The court has to consider it before making a decision. If Mr. Geng pays attention, I will tell Mr. Geng after I find out the result!"

  Entering Chang'an City, Feng An no longer had the slightest intention to look at this majestic city, nor did he have the heart to see how it has changed greatly from before.

  Qin Lang sent Feng Ang to Duke Geng's mansion all the way.

   This is the mansion built by the emperor for Feng Anchi in advance, and Feng Zhidai has already made full preparations for Feng An's arrival, and the mansion is fully equipped with servants and maidservants.

   "I won't bother Mr. Geng to rest. Mr. Geng is traveling all the way, please rest early!"

  Feng An replied somewhat dullly.

  Out of Duke Geng's mansion, Qin Lang had a bright smile on his face.

   Chengqian asked, "The people in Qinzhou and Zhuzhou rioted, so wouldn't there be another riot?"

   "Thousands of Zhu people were dissatisfied with Ning's harsh treatment, and rioted violently. It is understandable. The court only needs to send an envoy to appease the situation, and things will be stable. Don't worry."

  Chengqian is still too young, he really thought it was a group of people in trouble, but he didn't tell him in detail, some things need to be tasted by oneself, carefully tasted, and it is useless to be taught by others.

   "Let's go, return to the palace and return to life."

   Went straight to Tai Chi Palace, in Liangyi Hall, Qin Lang and Cheng Qian returned to the emperor.

   "Feng An joined the city?"

"Um."

  After asking a few words, the emperor waved Cheng Qian to go back to study, leaving Qin Lang alone.

   "How did Feng An react when he heard the news of Ning Changzhen's death?"

"The reaction was huge. Originally, Feng An was calm along the way, but after hearing the news of Ning Changzhen's death at the city gate, he was in a daze for a long time. After that, he was depressed all the way, as if he had lost his mind. After the Duke Geng's mansion, he still hasn't come to his senses."

   Li Shimin was very satisfied.

   "Hahaha, this Ning Changzhen really thinks that the court can be bullied, you bastard!"

   "The Town Fusi has done a good job this time!" Qin Lang praised.

Li Shimin asked Qin Lang to sit down, "It was originally planned by you when you were still in the Zhenfu Division. You killed Ning Daoming before you left the post, and the old dog Ning Changzhen left before you came. After taking over, it is not as good as you, and the things that were supposed to be finished a long time ago have been delayed for more than a year, and it is only now that they are done."

"After all, Ning Changzhen is a hero in the south of the Five Ridges, and he has always been extremely guarded by his side. After all, this operation is very beautiful. In addition to Ning Changzhen, he also blamed the Zhumin riots. In the end, the Ning family has to bear the responsibility , who told them to always treat Zhumin harshly." Qin Lang said with a chuckle.

  The whole plan was indeed made by Qin Lang when he was the governor.

  At the beginning, Ning Changzhen and others refused to lose their nationality and pay taxes, and rebelled. Although Li Yuan summoned Feng An and other Lingnan tycoons to defeat them, the imperial court did not have the spare power to send troops to Lingnan, so the final result was to send envoys to appease them.

   After Li Shimin succeeded in a military coup, he was very dissatisfied with the result of the Supreme Emperor's handling.

  Especially after Ning Changzhen became the Duke of Kang, he was not very honest.

   It was in this situation that Qin Lang proposed to come to knock the mountain and shake the tiger, and kill the chicken to make an example to the monkey.

   It is necessary to maintain the prestige of the imperial court in Lingnan, otherwise, if the chaos continues, the imperial court will have no prestige at all. Who will listen to the imperial court in the future?

  But at that time, the number one enemy of the imperial court was the northern Turks, and there were also people like Liang Shidu, Yuan Junzhang, and Yang Zhengdao. How could they really send troops to Lingnan.

   Therefore, Qin Lang proposed to carry out beheading and assassination operations.

  The target directly selected the leaders of the last rebellion, Ning Changzhen and Ning Daoming, uncle and nephew.

  The plan to assassinate Ning Daoming went smoothly. This man is young, arrogant, and likes hunting. So after some planning by Qin Lang, the Zhenfu Division dispatched capable men and horses to infiltrate Lingnan Yuezhou. When Ning Daoming went hunting in the mountains, the assassin pretended to be a barbarian in the mountains, pretended to be a vendetta, and shot Ning Daoming.

  The assassin was very successful this time, and Zhen Fusi's disguise was good. Although the Ning family had doubts afterwards, they didn't find any loopholes, so the matter ended like this.

   "Your Majesty, just now Feng An asked about how the court would deal with Ning Changzhen's aftermath."

   Li Shimin looked at Qin Lang, he hated Ning Changzhen to the bone, and hated this kind of barbarian who likes to stab a knife in the back the most.

  Real swords and guns Li Shimin is not afraid of anyone, but at the time when the northern part of the Tang Dynasty was facing the Turkic threat, the Ning family from the south of the Lingnan stabbed a knife in the back, and everyone was annoyed by this.

   "I can't wait to count Chen Ning's serious crimes, and then implicate his nine clans."

   Li Shimin said bitterly, "But I also know that this is unrealistic, and the imperial court still has to worry about those people in Lingnan."

  Qin Lang nodded.

"Since Ning Changzhen died, he died in the riots among the Zhu people. Although there was a reason for the incident, he was still the Duke of the court and the local governor, so I thought it was better to appease Ning Changzhen, especially the title of Ning Changzhen. Changzhen's son Ning Ju will succeed him, and he can also take over the post of governor of Qinzhou."

   "Would you be too nice to the Ning family?" Li Shimin asked back, after finally killing Ning Changzhen, is the court like this?

"Your Majesty, Ning Ju, the son of Ning Changzhen, was investigated by the minister when he was the governor. He is a dude with little ability. In the early years of the Ning family, there were still many fierce people. Ning Mengli, Ning Changzhen and Ning Xuan Ningkuo and his son are both good at fighting, but in Ning Ju's generation, they are not as good as before. Ning Chun will not talk about it. He did not hand over the position of prefect of Hepu County to him, but to another nephew, Ning Daoming, and Ning Chun felt resentful, and when the Ning family rebelled, he raised troops to stop him and took the initiative to fight for the court."

Although Ning Chun is pro-Tang, in fact, no one likes Ning Chun's behavior of eating inside and outside. After all, Ning Chun is not really benevolent. He is just because his selfish desires cannot be satisfied. It's just family resentment and betrayal.

   "In the younger generation of the Jia family, Ning Daoming was more brave and tough before, but he was too frivolous and arrogant. After his death, the Ning family really has no successors. Ning Chun can't do it, and Ning Ju can't do it."

   "Then Ning Ju can't just let Ning Ju take over the title and take up the post. We have to take this opportunity to further weaken the Ning family."

Qin Lang thought for a while, "Nachen suggested that the Ning family's territory should be adjusted, and the prefectures and counties should be merged. The south of the original Ningyue County would be Qinzhou, the south of the original Hepu County would be Lianzhou, and the north of the two prefectures should be divided into Hengzhou and Rongzhou. As for the land to the west of the mountains to the west of the original Qinzhou of the Ning family, and the territory of the original Yulin County in the Sui Dynasty, all of them were also separated and placed under the jurisdiction of Yongzhou."

  The Ning family had a large territory back then, but now Qin Lang wields his sword very ruthlessly.

  The Leizhou Peninsula has long been taken by the Feng family and changed to Leizhou, so it is impossible to return it to the Ning family.

   And the large land in Yulin County, which was west of Shiwanda Mountain in Qinzhou, is now also taken away.

   Even to the north of the two counties of Ningyue and Hepu, there are also quite a few to other prefectures.

  In the end, only four states remained, Qin, Lian, Heng, and Rong.

   "Ning Ju inherited the title of Duke of Kang and was awarded the title of governor of Qinzhou, Ning Chun was awarded the title of governor of Lianzhou, and as for the two prefectures of Hengrong, the imperial court sent another official to serve as the governor of Qinzhou."

  Lianzhou is also a part of the former Hepu County. It was Ning Chun's father who served as the prefect, and even his father worked hard to develop it. Now that Ning Chun is coming back to serve as the governor of Lianzhou, it is natural to use Ning to control Ning.

   To the west of Qinzhou and south of Yongzhou, there are undulating and continuous mountains, and it is also the base camp occupied by the Liao people.

  The emperor pondered and pondered.

   "Okay, let that lucky guy take over the title of Duke of Kang and become the governor of Qinzhou. Confer the title of Marquis of Ningchun and Hepu, and the governor of Lianzhou!"

   "I don't know how Feng An will feel when he hears this result!" Li Shimin stroked the teacup in his hand.

  Qin Lang laughed, "I'm afraid Feng An won't be able to sleep today."

   "As long as he is loyal to the imperial court and loyal to me, there is no need to worry." Li Shimin said, "I will send someone to reward him with something in a while to appease him."
