Chapter 880: Luohong is not a heartless thing
Chapter 880 Luohong is not a heartless thing
"Are you really planning to go back to Linyi?"
After a storm, Fan Lin curled up in his arms like a kitten. Today she is very different, she has become extremely wild, even as fierce as a tiger and wolf, and she just scored three goals.
Just now, she was like a crazy madman, but now she is gentle and terrifying.
"If possible, I really hope that I can stay with you by the Qilu Lake forever, enjoy the scenery, feed the birds, and go on like this day after day until I get old."
She closed her eyes, whispering softly.
"It's a pity that this is impossible after all. You are the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, the emperor's son-in-law and the prince's teacher. The Tonghai by the Qilu Lake is just a short journey in your life. It is very rare to stay for so long. Immediately It’s spring flowers and March, and the mountains are full of azaleas, so you’re about to set off and sail down the West Dao River, sailing to the sea and returning to Guangzhou, right?”
"Sanlang, will you remember Fan Lin by Qilu Lake in the future?"
Qin Lang smiled slightly, a little sad.
After all, we still have to say goodbye.
He suddenly asked, "You said that the leaves fall, is it the pursuit of the wind, or the tree's refusal to retain?"
Fan Lin opened her eyes, looked at Qin Lang, thought for a while and tilted her head and replied, "It's fate. It is destined that the leaves will leave the tree one day and drift with the wind, but the wind will eventually drop the leaves, and eventually the leaves will fall away." It falls not far from the tree, and eventually turns into soil, and blooms into flowers in the next year."
Qin Lang smiled.
"Fallen flowers are not heartless things, into Chunni more quadrangle."
"Is this also your poem? It's really well written." Fan Lin laid her head on Qin Lang's chest, "I really don't want to leave you."
The two were silent.
Qin Lang knew that he couldn't keep her, and it was impossible for her to stay. She had her own mission, and she wanted to go back to Linyi. In fact, this was exactly Qin Lang's design from the beginning, and it was originally the original transaction.
Having been together for a long time, Qin Lang can't tell whether all of this is part of that transaction, or whether it is really a matter of time and love.
But I do feel a bit reluctant.
"I will miss you when I return to Linyi." Fan Lin said.
"You'd better forget about me, and then find a young talent in Linyi to marry and live a happy life. Don't worry, I will not forget what I promised you. Datang will support you to go back and restore the situation, Da Tang The Tang Dynasty will not tolerate Linyi's rebellious ministers committing crimes against their superiors, and murdering the king is immoral, and the Tang Dynasty will uphold justice for Linyi."
Fan Lin hugged Qin Lang and didn't want to get up.
"If I can really pacify the regicides and rebels, and ascend to the throne of Linyi, I will definitely present the fiefdom atlas, household registration and field records to the Tang Dynasty, and Linyi will become the most loyal vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, not just for trade. Tributary country. If there is a call from the Tang Dynasty in the future, the call will come."
Caressing the beauty's black hair that was still covered with sweat, Qin Lang was a little careless. This kind of thing that should have been said on the table, but said on this occasion, made him feel that everything between the two was just a deal, which made him feel He doesn't like it very much.
"Actually, you don't need to rush back now. You might as well go back to Guangzhou City with me. I will arrange for people to go to Linyi to inquire about information first. I will secretly contact the supporters of the Fan family in Linyi Middle School for you. Wait until my side is stable. After that, I will be able to free up my hands when the time comes, and I will transfer the South China Sea Fleet there."
"Didn't you tell me a word, if you want to wear a crown, you must first bear its weight. If I want to become the queen of Linyi, I have to conquer this country myself. What someone else gives you will not be stable after all."
"How to deal with your brother?" Qin Lang asked.
"May I entrust him to you? You can take him back to Guangzhou, or send him to Chang'an, as long as you don't let him go back to Linyi. In fact, this is also to protect him. He was originally a very good prince, but suddenly The change made him a little unbearable, and I don't blame him for becoming what he is now, but it's just that Lin Yiguo is in his current state, and it is impossible to hand it over to him." The princess said flatly.
"Have you ever thought about it, doing this is a hidden danger after all."
Fan Lin smiled, "You have met my brother too, do you think he can become a hidden danger? Why don't you stay in the Tang Dynasty and treat it as a proton for you and Datang?"
"If I don't fulfill my promise to Datang in the future, can't you just canonize him as Linyi King?"
There was another silence.
"Cover the quilt, and be careful not to catch a cold." Qin Lang pulled some quilts for her, but she threw them aside, staring at Qin Lang intently, "I want me again!"
“········”
Qin Lang smiled wryly.
"Again, one last time."
"It's still a month before we arrive in Jiaozhou. There's still time."
"No, I will leave at dawn tomorrow. I won't wait for you to go with me. I will go to Jiaozhou Port first, and I need to make some preparations there." As she spoke, she stood up boldly.
·······
She left after all.
Before dawn, Qin Lang, who had worked hard all night, was still asleep. After a sleepless night, she gently got up, kissed Qin Lang's face, stared affectionately at the man who made her sink completely, and finally slammed down hard. Xinchang got up and left.
When Qin Lang woke up, the smell of the princess remained in the room, but she was nowhere to be seen.
She is gone, leaving behind a jewel that shines brightly.
This gemstone is the princess' treasure, a gift from her father, Fan Touli, to her daughter. It was produced in Tianzhu and brought to Linyi by a Tianzhu merchant. It was born in gold, and it can be cut into gold and jade, hard. Incomparable.
In fact, this is a diamond, which is called King Kong in the Central Plains.
The princess has always regarded this thing as a treasure, not only because of the scarcity of diamonds, but also because it is the only thing left to her by his murdered father. Unexpectedly, she actually left it to Qin Lang.
Holding the diamond, Qin Lang felt a little lost.
Although we haven't been together for a long time, we finally have a bond, and a strong desire to possess in my heart, and I don't want to lose it.
Maybe this is the expression of love.
Qin Lang held the Vajra in his hand and chased him out of the house.
The guard outside the door told Qin Lang that Princess Linyi had been gone for an hour, and before leaving, he specifically confessed that Qin Lang slept soundly, so don't disturb the wake up. He came in to check on it, and saw that Qin Lang was indeed sleeping soundly, so he didn't bother him.
Qin Lang came to the gate of the castle, and the guard told him that the princess had already left.
Then Qin Lang stayed in Tonghai for a few more days, and suddenly felt a sense of loneliness. In the past, she was always with her wherever she went, and she was always with her even though the night was long.
He tried to replace her with work, but he always made mistakes. The busier and busier he was, the more mistakes he made, and in the end he simply gave up this ineffective move.
This kind of feeling is really quite rare. It seems that it was only the same with Yuxiao at the beginning, and Anong, maybe there seemed to be some inexplicable feelings with Zheng Shisanniang in it, and the rest were like Yu Xuanji, Yang Chongniang and others seem to be unable to talk about these.
Even his nominal fiancee, Princess Changle, he never really regarded her as his wife in his heart, but always regarded her as a child.
Finally, after another night of insomnia, Qin Lang, with dark circles under his eyes, announced to leave early amid the laughter of Cheng Chumo and the others, as well as the voices saying that he would pick a few Nanman beauties for him.
Cheng Chu was silent.
"Sanlang, are you going to abandon me?"
"roll!"
Old Cheng scratched his head, "Honestly, I don't want you to leave. With you here, although I don't do anything all day long and spend my time with Princess Linyi, I just feel that I have the backbone and my heart is at ease. , I have the energy to do everything. If you leave, I feel as if I suddenly have no backbone, and my heart is at a loss. "
Qin Lang patted him on the shoulder. This guy purposely grew a beard on his face. Last time he was shot in the face when he suppressed the barbarians, it wasn't serious, but this guy insisted that the scar was too delicate. Some, I just processed it by myself, and it was more than doubled, and it turned into a big scarred face, and it must be said to be murderous.
"Dalang, you are doing very well. In fact, you need to be more confident. You have been in Shengzhou for a few years. Didn't you become a governor very well? Now the inspector Tonghai Governor, although not long, is also The rectification is submissive, with me and without me, it is actually the same. We have already planned the road, and then as long as we proceed step by step, it will always be safe. Besides, I am only returning to Guangzhou, not Back to Chang'an, there is still Li Daliang in Jiaozhou, and the waterway will only take a month to get there, if you really need something, we will be there soon."
Niu Jianhu smiled and said, "Old Cheng, if you can't hold on to this place, you can replace me. I really don't want to leave here. The scenery here is unique."
Old Cheng said bluntly, "Do you think this place is really safe and stable? That man retreated to the south bank of the Xidao River and Manbu, and Meng Guji and Nong Jinhu actually came here to occupy the magpie's nest. Killed the head of the Heni village in Luopandian, and took away his village foundation. During this period of time, we are fighting everywhere in Jiangbei to appease the barbarians, and they have not stopped in Jiangnan."
Nong Jinhu and Meng Guchu launched a mutiny in Luopandian, killed the compass master, and installed Meng Guchu as the new compass master. Then Nong Jinhu led his troops to threaten to attack those disobedient Honi tribes. After she wiped out several villages that refused to submit to the new king with a thunderbolt, Meng Guju came forward again, appointed an official and promised, and rewarded him generously.
Nong Jinhu spread rumors everywhere that the Tang people were about to cross the river, and that they would kill all the peaceful and barbarians at that time, making everyone feel in danger, so under the coercion and lure of their teaming up with Shuanghuang, the various ministries gradually united.
All ministries meet in Luopandian to form an alliance, kill white cattle and white horses, and draw blood to form an alliance.
Nong Jinhu blatantly shouted the slogan of establishing a barbarian country together and supporting a barbarian emperor at the alliance meeting, so the group of barbarians established the Nanman dynasty in this way, and respected Meng Guzhen as the barbarian emperor. It was the first time for him to call himself a barbarian country.
Kenong Jinhu said that the Han people in the Central Plains have been derogatory calling them barbarians and calling them southern barbarians. Then they will be completely barbarian, and they will use barbarian as their country name to divide the north and south of the Central Plains.
Northern Tang and Southern Barbarians will attack the Yangtze River in the future and rule by demarcation.
The leaders of the Han people in the Central Plains call the emperor the emperor, and they also want to call the emperor the emperor, and they will never be lower than the Tang people.
Meng Guchu, who was respected as the emperor of the Nanman Wu, then established the country name, changed the Yuan Dynasty and established the dynasty, set up hundreds of officials, and distributed the various tribes. The other tribes were conferred the titles of Duke of the State, Hou Bozinan, etc., adopting the system of enfeoffment, and at the same time established a central court.
Each has a reward, the princes are all over the court, and the leaders of each department are either marshals or generals.
But this trick is really effective. Anyway, the barbarians are being integrated. Nong Jinhu has become the king of Juding, Marshal Zuo, and the governor of Juding Prefecture. A defense line was set up on the south bank of the river, and even warships were built, ready to counterattack across the river at any time.
"Cut, you've become a f*cking bereaved dog, why don't you still have the time to play house on the other side of the river? What about the Southern Barbarian Kingdom, the barbarian emperor, a group of rebellious barbarians, why don't you go back to Guangzhou with Saburo, and I'll stay and cross the river Kill them, and let me, Lao Niu, earn a title as well."
Cheng Chu gave him a silent look, "If you underestimate the enemy and rush forward, your leg will probably have to be broken by then. The south of the Yangtze River is even more remote, with high mountains and dense forests. If we are not fully prepared, we must not cross the river easily."
Qin Lang praised Cheng Chumo, "Well said, don't pay attention to those savages for now, let them enjoy themselves for a while, if you really have the courage to cross the river, give him a good lesson. As long as you don't cross the river, let them make trouble, we will be at ease The heart is here to build a city, garrison fields, and immigrant troops to train soldiers. It only takes three years, and this place should be stable, and then cross the river to crusade, wouldn't it be a matter of course?"
Niu Jianhu was trained by Qin Lang, but he was very honest and did not dare to stab him.
Hehe smiled, "I'm not afraid that these savages will have too much fun, and when it reaches Chang'an, the emperor will be dissatisfied. What if there is such a troublesome censor, or a guy with a rotten **** like Hou Junji? This matter is disgusting to us, and San Saburo will have a copy, so it will be troublesome."
"A person like Hou Junji, even if he has nothing to do, he will point out some points, so don't pay attention to it at all." Qin Lang didn't take it seriously. It's not that the emperor doesn't know the details here.
Although the emperor is five or six thousand miles away, the emperor has good eyes and ears, and he can keep an eye on every move here. Regarding the temporary use of Xidaojiang as the actual control line, Li Shimin's permission was actually obtained.
Although the Tonghai Governor's Mansion covers the south of the West Daojiang River and goes to the Lancang River, in fact, the monarchs and ministers are very clear that this is just a good look.
Even if you row to the Tianzhu Sea in the south, no one will stop you, but it doesn't make much practical sense.
For the current stage, Li Shimin is already very happy with the current situation here, which can be called a pleasant surprise.
Not only did they drive away the Judingman, but they also drove part of the eastern Heman in Jiangbei across the river. Successfully brought the two thousand miles of wild land into rule for Datang.
Not to mention, Qin Lang also took the opportunity of Pingju Dingman to convert all the thirty-six Juman states of Zuoxixi to the west of Yongzhou.
This greatly exceeded Li Shimin's psychological expectations. He originally thought that he could repel the Judingman, force them to pay tribute to the Tang Dynasty, and then go west to Yongzhou by the way, and change a few Ximan prefectures to the imperial court. , How can I think that it is the great joy of expanding the land for two thousand miles.
Under such a great victory, Qin Lang insisted on setting up a sea-connected governor's mansion and a navy in the south of Cuan's territory. In the Panjiang (Zangjiang) area to the east of the Cuan family, they took advantage of the situation to deter the barbarians, and established the Dudu Mansion of Zang Cang. In addition, the Dudu Mansion of Juding was established on the ground after the destruction of Juding. thousands of miles.
Li Shimin was satisfied, and didn't want Qin Lang to continue to pursue him. He believed in the commander at the front line. Qin Lang said that he would stop as far as the north bank of the Xidao River.
So whether the barbarians on the other side of the river established the Nanman Dynasty or called it the Nanman Martial Emperor, it actually had nothing to do with Qin Lang. It was a place outside of Huaihua, and it was not their own territory that created such a disturbance.
"I will ask the navy to send people to patrol the river on a regular basis, and you Jiangbei should also be more vigilant. Although I don't think these barbarians have the courage to cross the river, be careful about the ten thousand year boat." Qin Lang confessed to Cheng Chumo.
