Chapter 339 Do your best
There are still a few things that have not been dealt with next to the king of Yongzhou, but the date of the initial departure has been set three days later. Gao Zhisheng is very looking forward to it. After all, he has been away from Dali for two or three months. Although for the ancients, it is normal to leave for two or three months due to traffic and communication, it is not urgent or slow. On the surface, it was indeed like an arrow. The banquet dispersed. Gao Zhisheng returned to the courtyard where he stayed in the royal palace. When he saw Yan'er and Huan'er, they were ready to pack up and go back. The three of them were laughing. Suddenly, they heard someone come to report that the king of Zhennan invited,
It's so late, what's wrong with Wang? Gao Zhisheng followed the family who reported the letter to the study suspiciously and saw Wang sitting at the table drinking tea,
Gao Zhisheng sat down opposite the king and asked curiously, "Brother Xian, call me here now, but what's the matter?"
"Brother Gao, I asked you to tell you a story."
"Storytelling." Gao Zhisheng glanced at the king a few times. Seeing his calm look, he couldn't help shaking his head,
"Why, I don't want to hear it." Wang raised his eyelids and looked at Gao Zhisheng with a smile,
Gao Zhisheng thought of what story he was telling in the middle of the night. It could be seen that Wang had a mysterious smile. He knew that he was not a person who was idle to tell stories, so he said angrily, "Tell it, let's see what story you want to tell in the middle of the night."
"The prime minister of Gao, you sit down and say..." Wang opened his head and looked at Gao Zhisheng lowering his head to drink tea. He knocked on the fan on the table. This movement scared Gao Zhisheng. The teacup in his hand shook and looked up at Wang: "What table are you knocking on when telling stories?"
"Ha ha, this is called a set. I remind you to listen carefully. I'm afraid you will fall asleep without hearing the wonderful." Wang said half jokingly, but his eyes looked at Gao Zhisheng. The minister of Dali sitting opposite him was also a handsome figure. He usually had a good impression on getting along with each other, but he had a different good impression from Zhe Kejun and others. For Zhe Kejun and others, he was a brother who was born and died; Li Liangzuo was a child in Wang's eyes, yeah Lv Hongji is a mature king in the eyes of the king; and impeaching Libo is a brother. Although he is close, he will not think of the golden man's iron horse one day all the time. This kind of worry is the same as the feeling of urging Cai Jingtong, but the family affection is mixed with a sense of responsibility, and this Gao Zhisheng's experience is similar to that of Wang's side, and he is a minister. The identity is similar, and it is inevitable that the king will have a feeling of cherishing each other.
Gao Zhisheng simply put down the teacup: "Well, I'll listen to it like this. Let's see how wonderful the story is."
Wang Bianqing cleared his throat and said, "After the second year of Jin Tianfu (937), Duan Siping became the king of Tonghai, and the country's name was Dali. When Duan Siping passed on to the tenth generation of Duan Suxing, there were two kinds of forces in Dali that did not give in to each other."
Gao Zhisheng listened to Wang's story about Dali, and he said it in a good way. He frowned slightly, but soon looked at Wang calmly and waited for him to continue,
"This generation of Suxing is not a direct descendant of Duan Siping. I won't talk about the twists and turns in the middle. In this period of Suxing's reign, there was a popular descendant of the royal family in Dali. This royal descendant is the son of your current Dali, Duan Silian. This person is the son of Duan Siping's great-grandson Duan Zhien."
Gao Zhisheng nodded: "What Xiandi said is not wrong at all, but everyone in Dali is familiar with this story, and I didn't hear anything new."
Wang took a sip of tea, moistened it and then said, "So I refreshed you. I'm afraid you will fall asleep without hearing the wonderful. Don't interrupt. Continue the wonderful."
Gao Zhisheng shook his head and smiled. Unexpectedly, the prince of the Song Dynasty had started a book about Dali. He listened to the king's side and said, "This period of plain pleasure is very good, and he is very happy. The Guangying Palace is in Tokyo, with more flowers and plants, and yellow flowers are planted on the spring embankment, which is called a detour of the golden edges, and white flowers are planted on the Yunjin Bridge, which is the silver edges of the city. Every spring month, with a prostitute to carry wine, from the jade case three springs, back to the nine curved goblet, men and women sit in a row, fighting grass hairpin flowers, day and night to have fun, it is said that Su Xinhua is named Duan Suxing likes flowers and plants because of him, life is very romantic and happy, and there is also the saying that 'flowers meet songs bloom, there is grass meets dances', so your Dali folk legend of 'Suxing' In the right place, the barren ** day is very much.
"At that time, there were two powerful ministers in the dynasty, one was Yang Yunxian; he was a member of Dali, and his son Yang Yizhen was also able to be an official in Dali Palace because of the prestige of the Yang family; the other was powerful. His family has been a senior official in Dali for generations, and the reason for this is to start from Duan Siping's construction of Dali: he did not build Dali. Before, Duan Siping borrowed troops from the 37 barbarians in the East to fight against Yang Ganzhen. He would be a good government minister to guard Gao Fang and Duan Siping, and sent people to take over Siping. In the second year of Tianfu, Duan Siping destroyed Dayining and established the Dali State. In the third year of Tianfu, Duan Siping appointed Dong Jialuo as the prime minister, and at the same time made Gao Fang as the Marquis of Yue. The two meritorious ministers of the founding of the country, generations. Sun is in an important position in Dali, and you..." Wang pointed to Gao Zhisheng,
"Brother Gao, you are the tenth generation descendant of Yuehou Gaosheng's direct descendant. Although you have been an official in the Dali Dynasty for family reasons, you have been in close contact with Duan Siping's direct descendants in the family era. When you get to Gao, you will have a good relationship with Duan Silian, who is the same age."
Gao Zhisheng was pointed by the king and sat up straight. If the emperors of the founding of Dali so far could say it, it was not surprising that he even knew some things in the Dali Dynasty, but Wang's words were conclusive, and even the branches knew it clearly. Gao Zhisheng couldn't help but tighten his heart, and he looked at it quietly. Wang Zong, did not answer or deny,
Wang was not asking him, and his body leaned forward slightly lower than before. Then he continued, "Since Duan Siping's throne fell to the Duan family, the Gao family has followed the ancestral teachings for generations, helping Duan Sizi regain the throne, and this kind of struggle has become a game between the two forces in the court. One side is Gao. The other side is the Yang family, who is the emperor. Fortunately, the Su character is in Duan Suxing's generation. Finally, the Gao clan found an opportunity to overthrow Duan Suxing and establish Duan Silian as emperor. However, Yang was not reconciled. In the eighth year of Jiayou in the Northern Song Dynasty, the Yang family rebelled. This time, he was defeated, and he was also your reputation as Gao. The Great Earthquake pacified Yang Yunxian's Uprising, so he was given the White Cliff and Hedian Land. Jin Jue was the Marquis of Shanxuan, and the power was over the government and the opposition.
Gao Zhisheng felt a trace of coolness on his back and rose up along his spine. How could the king know so much? Wang saw a trace of fear in his eyes. He thought that he didn't want to scare him off today. Knowing that the heat was almost there, he smiled and said, "These are not secrets, aren't they, Brother Gao?"
"The story of the virtuous brother is wonderful. Is this the end of the story? What will happen after that?" Gao Zhisheng also smiled and said calmly,
Such a talent makes Wang side feel interesting. Usually, it seems to be loose, and even a little weak. When he first came here, he was still a little coward. However, from the two people outside Song Shoujun's two competitions, Wang side has already seen that Gao Zhisheng has a lot of energy in his heart, which is also the place for Wang to appreciate him.
"Come on, Brother Gao, take a sip of water first and listen to me." Wang Bian personally poured water for Gao Zhisheng, stood up and walked two steps at the table with his hands behind his back. Then he said, "Although Yang Yunxian was wiped out, there is a saying that the thin camel is bigger than a horse. Yang Yunxian has already kept a hand for himself in case of failure. His son Yang Yizhen took a huge amount of money to hide with the rest of his troops, and there is also Yang Yunxian's same party in the court. In the past few years, I have often whispered in Duan Silian's ear. We should beware of the prime minister's achievements, and we should also prevent you from waiting for the opportunity to seize the throne. Therefore, I think that in the past few years, although you are a high-ranking official, you have been slowly cut off your military power, and unconsciously falling into today's field, even the troops you can call in the white cliff and other places you guard. It's not enough to add up to 10,000 yuan. Yang Yizhen is right about this.
Seeing that Gao Zhisheng did not answer, Wang side smiled slightly: "Brother Gao still misses the old feelings in his heart, so he repeatedly avoided it. It was not until you came to Yongzhou after Jia Qing's advice, and at the same time, he sent someone to investigate Yang Yizhen's whereabouts. Then he wanted to cheer up again. Brother Gao, am I right?"
"Hahaha." Yang Yizhen suddenly laughed and then high-fiveed his hands: "Sure enough, the king of Zhennan, who is known as resourceful, actually knows the matter of my Dali in such detail, but although the story is good, I'm afraid that with your Yongzhou troops, even you can't help Yang Yizhen."
"It doesn't matter if I can't do anything. Brother Gao, you can do whatever you want, but it will take a few years."
"Wait for a few years, you mean that there is no way to suppress Yang Yizhen this time."
"Why do you want to suppress it? Now your emperor Duan Silian has deliberately recruited Yang Yizhen, and it's a good match. The Yang family, like your Gao family, is also waiting for the opportunity to help Duan's surname Su. Do you think he really wants to be the king?"
Gao Zhisheng stood up as soon as he heard this. He didn't know how the king would know about it. He paced in the room and said, "No, it's impossible. It's so difficult for me to be an official in the same court as Yang Yizhen. How could the emperor be so confused?"
Wang looked at Gao Zhisheng pace, but he returned to the table and sat down. He understood Gao Zhisheng's mood very well. Anyone would be so surprised, but the Dali Emperor really planned to do so, and when Yang Yizhen became powerful again, Gao Zhisheng and Yang Yizhen would be a duel, not only the descendants of Gao Zhisheng. It will also seize the power of Dali, all of which is very easy to say because Wang's side knows history very well, but Wang side occasionally wanders about whether history will change because of his own existence,
"Those who know the current affairs are Junjie. Brother Gao, I suggest you be patient for the time being."
"Well, this story has some new ideas, but I still don't believe it. Can you count the secret?"
Wang side drank himself and said, "I don't have to calculate these at all. The real threat of going to Dali this time is not Yang Yizhen at all. As for what I just said, if you don't believe it, just wait and see. This time, Yang Yizhen will definitely go to Dali with you and me, and in order to show sincerity, you don't bring soldiers. If you want to be right He did it, but your kindness and injustice have completed his righteousness.
Gao Zhisheng listened to the words of the king, took a deep breath and calmed his mind and said, "Well, it seems that the virtuous brother took the hand of the sky first."
"You don't believe it. Your Dali Emperor will recruit and add officials to Yang Yizhen. Brother Gao, if you use Yang Yizhen to counterbalance you from Duan Silian's point of view, it's understandable for the sake of the country. You don't have to think about it."
Gao Zhisheng gritted his teeth and said, "I don't hurt the tiger. If the emperor is only for the country, then I will bear it, but I really don't believe it."
"Well, as long as Yang Yizhen walks with us as I said this time, what should you say?"
"Haha, if you are right about this matter, I will listen to you in the future. Of course, the premise is for me." Gao Zhisheng said categorically,
