Chapter 314 The Road to the South (Twenty-Nine)

The story of Hou Dayong from another world, Yang Jiye and Zhe Saihua is definitely a legend. Regarding Yang and Zhe's marriage is also a legend. Hou Dayong has seen this story without any objection during the youthful period of another world, and he still fantasized about it.

The general idea of ​​the story is as follows: According to legend, during the Later Han Dynasty during the Five Dynasties, the Yang family generals guarded Lin and the Zhe family army were in trouble. The two armies inevitably had frictions and often had small wars and fought endlessly. Once, there was another conflict between the two sides. The Yang family generals in Linzhou were young and Yang Jiye, and the Zhe family army in the prefecture was female general Zhe Saihua. These two young heroes had excellent martial arts skills. The two sides fought for dozens of rounds, but they still had no choice. Seeing that it was getting late, Zhe Saihua had a plan and sold a flaw, pretending to be defeated and fled. Yang Jiye was young and competitive, and wanted to capture the other party alive, so he chased him relentlessly. He said it was a time, and they arrived at the Qixing Temple one by one and the other. Zhe Saihua got off the horse and entered the hall. Jiye didn't know that it was a plan, so he got off the horse and went in to capture it. He didn't want Zhe Saihua to be behind the door, but he suddenly turned him down and tied him up.

It was too late at night and I couldn't tell the road, so the two of them waited for dawn in the hall. Zhe Saihua had already heard of Yang Jiye's reputation, so she wanted to talk. Yang Jiye had also had a beloved daughter named Zhe Saihua, who was not only talented and beautiful, but also had great martial arts skills. He did not expect that after the battle today, he met in the ancient temple in the desert and became her captive. The two sides had long had their love. During the conversation, they gradually became in love with each other, and they regretted that they met too late. Later, Zhe Saihua personally undressed Yang Jiye, and the two made a hundred years of friendship with the statue in the Seven Star Temple.

From then on, Yang and Zhe families were just fighting and jointly dominated the northwest. After the rise of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they both joined the Great Zhou Dynasty, and only Liu Jiye, who was changed to the Liu family, became a strong enemy of the Great Zhou Dynasty with the kindness of his understanding of Liu Chong.

The widely circulated classical drama "Shitangguan" is a legend of marriage on the battlefield. Later, a famous short play was called "Seven Star Temple Recruiting Kiss". Hou Dayong, a young man who never watched the short play, accidentally watched "Seven Star Temple Recruiting Kissss" and actually pretended to be Yang Jiye in his dream.

Now that he has come to this new world by chance, Hou Dayong is powerful all over the world, but deep down he does not want this legend to disappear. If because of his arrival, there is a lack of a Yang family general in the historical legend, it will inevitably be a bit regrettable.

From another perspective, Zhao Kuangyin has a high position and a powerful position and is capable of threatening the regime. He is Hou Dayong's main political opponent. He is not enough to unify the country without eliminating it. Yang Jiye is just a brave general of the enemy. Staying there will not harm the overall situation.

Therefore, after the Battle of Cizhou, Hou Dayong was still preparing to surrender Liu Jiye.

Zhe Deyi could not have known that such rich information and thoughts had been turned into Hou Dayong's mind. He heard that Hou Dayong asked about his daughter and knew that such a thing could not be hidden from the prime minister of a country. He admitted happily: "Zhe Saihua is my daughter, and Liu Jiye, the new army guards of the Northern Han Dynasty, was my son-in-law. They became husband and wife in the second year of Qianyou in the Later Han Dynasty. Liu Jiye and Dazhou were enemies. I am really ashamed."

Hou Dayong had known this before, and saw that Zhe Deyan admitted it very simply, he smiled and said, "In the battle of Cizhou, Liu Jiye led his army to break through the central army. He is really a brave general. It's a pity that he failed and injured one eye. It's a pity."

"Liu Shaolang is brave. Although he broke his eyes, he led his troops to attack the Khitans' Caogu not long ago."

Seeing that Hou Dayong had no malice, Zhe Dejian said calmly: "In order to approach Liu Chong, the governor of Linzhou, Yang Xin, sent his son Yang Chonggui to Taiyuan in order to approach Liu Chong, the governor of Hedong. Yang Chonggui was young and brave, and was highly valued by Liu Chong, so he accepted Yang Chonggui as his grandson. He changed his name to Liu Jiye. In the second year of Ganyou, Liu Jiye married my daughter. At that time, one was eighteen years old and the other was seventeen years old. After the fall of the Later Han Dynasty, Yang Xin joined the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Liu Jiye stayed in the Northern Han Dynasty. He led his army to fight against the Khitans on the border all year round."

"Liu Jiye is a soldier. This time he went south and the Han Dynasty, and he was just ordered."

Hou Dayong understood the implication of Zhe Deyan's words: there are three meanings. First, when Liu Jiye surrendered to the Northern Han Dynasty, Liu Chong of the Northern Han Dynasty was still a town in the Later Han Dynasty. In this regard, neither Liu Jiye nor his father Yang Xin was at fault; second, after the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Yang Xin joined the Great Zhou Dynasty, and Liu Jiye continued to be a general in the Northern Han Dynasty. It can be said that each was his master, not a rebellion; third, this time when the Northern Han army went south, Liu Jiye was just implementing military orders.

Hou Dayong looked at Zhe Deyan with praise and thought to himself: "Jie Deyan's statement just now is enough to prove that Zhe Deyan has extraordinary knowledge and courage. No wonder the Zhe family can survive in the gap between Dangxiang, Khitan and the Northern Han."

Hou Dayong made a clear statement: "Duke Zhe Jiedu, please rest assured. Liu Jiye's behavior is just his personal behavior and has nothing to do with the Zhe family and the Yang family. I will not make things difficult for the Yang family and the Zhe family. Liu Jiye is a younger brother named Yang Chongxun. He served in the court. Your Majesty has issued an order to make Yang Chongxun the governor of Linzhou and inherit his father's duties."

"The holy grace is so great that it makes the ministers cry."

When Zhe Deyan heard this, he finally let go of his heart hanging along the way. He stood up, saluted a military salute in a regular manner, and said solemnly: "Hou Xiangsheng has been born and made a great righteousness, and he will never be able to repay it. He can only defend the prefecture and protect the peace of the country."

Seeing that Hou Dayong was so generous, Zhe Dezhen said again: "I have something to do, but I don't know whether to say it or not."

“But it’s okay.”

"I have always had a grudge with Dangxiang Li. I was actually a villain who said this in front of the Hou Prime Minister, but I was just unhappy with some words." Zhe De paused and said, "Dangxiang Tuoba Li Yiyin has tens of thousands of elite soldiers, occupying the four states of Xia, Sui, You and Yin. The terrain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The orders of the Central Plains are actually difficult to pass in the four states. Li Yiyin is cunning and ambitious. Over time, the fullness of Li's wings will be difficult to control."

In another world, the Dangxiang Tuoba people established the glorious Western Xia Dynasty, the Western Xia, the Liao and the Song Dynasty, forming a larger and more contradictory confrontation between the Three Kingdoms. Unfortunately, there is only one Luo Guanzhong in history. This wonderful Romance of the Three Kingdoms is far inferior to the stories of Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Sun Quan. This soul-stirring history of the Three Kingdoms has gradually become forgotten.

Zhe Deyi was very knowledgeable and dared to speak out in a villain's name. Hou Dayong couldn't help but look up to Zhe Deyi, but some things and some words could not be said thoroughly, and he said: "The country was settled first, internal stability is the most important. Li Yiyin also made contributions to guarding the four prefectures, so there is no need to mention this."

When Zhe Dejian heard this, his expression remained unchanged, and then he said: "The Northern Han is a powerful enemy in the Central Plains. He has repeatedly colluded with the Khitans to move south. In May this year, I led the Erlang to attack from his left wing, occupied Shaguzhai, and beheaded 500. The Northern Han army mobilized heavy troops to come west, and the Erlang retreated. The Northern Han taxes were too heavy and the people were poor. From this battle, it can be seen that they are weak. As long as the Marquis and Prime Ministers attacked the Northern Han army, I will lead the troops of the Prefecture and Prefecture to restrain the Northern Han army from the flanks, and it is easy to defeat the Northern Han army."

"When the late emperor was alive, he had made a plan to first north, then south, and then north. He would take the Eighteen Prefectures of Youyan first, and then go south to sweep away the Southern Tang, Western Shu and other countries. When the south is pacified, he would be able to gather the strength of the whole country and fight to the death with the powerful enemy of the north Khitan."

"The Khitan was the biggest enemy of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Northern Han was purely a clown who could be destroyed at any time. Now, the Northern Han will be left for the time being. The main purpose is to give a buffer between the Great Zhou and the Khitan to facilitate the Great Zhou army's full efforts to fight south."

A hint of excitement appeared on Zhe Dejian's face: Hou Dayong told all the major strategies of the country, how trusted and glorious these things were.

Hou Dayong said seriously: "During the southern expedition, the position of the prefecture was extremely important, and the burden on the shoulders of the Jiedushi was as heavy as Mount Tai. However, you are not alone and helpless. A part of the Black Eagle Army has occupied Wuliang Suhai and has begun to build a permanent fortress. If the prefecture encounters an enemy, the Black Eagle Army of Wuliang Suhai can come to support quickly."

"It's great. If the Black Eagle Army can support the prefectures in Wuliangsuhai, the Hu people will suffer ten times more damage. I am not afraid. I will wait patiently for the day when Hou Xiangzang pacified the south."

Hou Dayong confessed state affairs so sincerely to unite the Zhe family with strong power.

The two chatted for a while in the Northwest Military. When they were about to end the conversation, Hou Dayong said: "The world's general trend will be divided, and long-term separation will be unified. From the late Tang Dynasty to the present, the Central Plains have been divided for more than a hundred years, and it is time for the world to be unified. By that time, I will transfer Liu Jiye to the Hei Diao Army to compete with the Khitans. Liu Jiye is an expert." As he spoke, Hou Dayong was full of confidence and seemed particularly energetic.

Zhe Deji left Daliang in a month.

There are two roads from Daliang to Fuzhou. One is through Xiazhou occupied by the Dangxiang Tuoba people. The Dangxiang Tuoba Li family had a feud with the Zhe family. Therefore, when the Zhe family passed through Xiazhou, they were worried about safety on the one hand, and on the other hand, they were troubled by the Dangxiang Tuoba people. Therefore, Zhe Deyi was not forced to pass through the territory of the Dangxiang Tuoba people.

On the other road, we first went to Hezhong Prefecture, followed Luoshui to Yanzhou, then to Lingzhou, and then through the Hetao land to Fuzhou. This road was opened by the Black Eagle Army occupied the Hetao land. Although it was nearly hundreds of miles more than the previous road, it was very safe along the way, let alone look at the faces of the people of Dangxiang Tuoba. Zhe Dezhen chose this road without hesitation.

Along the way, Zhe Deyun always had the last conversation with Hou Dayong, especially Hou Dayong's passion for seeing the world as if he was taking things out, which was deeply imprinted in the heart of Zhe Deyun. This meeting will have a key impact on the future battle situation, and I won't mention it here for now.

After seeing off the Zhe Dejian, the time was Si. Hou Dayong had originally thought of the disciple of the Secretariat, but when he walked past the main courtyard, he heard Fu Ying's faint reprimand, and stopped and came to Fu Ying's main courtyard.

Hou Dayong entered the house, Fu Ying held back his anger and said with a smile: "Alang, Zhe Jiedu is gone." Hou Dayong had already seen Fu Ying's face was wrong, so he walked over, embraced Fu Ying's slightly flattering waist, and his face was against his thick hair. "Xiaoying, what's wrong to make you angry."

This is the intimate position that Fu Ying likes very much. Fu Ying felt Hou Dayong's strong body, his head tilted back slightly, and leaned against Hou Dayong's chest. The anger in his chest seemed to have diminished a lot, "It's nothing, it's all small things, so let's not worry about it."

Since Fu Xiaomei was banned, Fu Ying has become a little sensitive and melancholy. She wanted to enter the palace several times to see the poor mother and son, but when she walked outside the palace wall several times, her courage disappeared. Fu Xiaomei and Chai Zongxun were the biggest shadows in Fu Ying's heart, and from time to time it would pour out at the most joyful time, causing the emotions to fall from the peak to the deep valley.

But today's incident was not caused by Fu Xiaomei. Fu Ying remembered the naughty child who caused trouble in the Hou Mansion all day long, and couldn't help but feel angry again.

Hou Dayong and Fu Ying have been married for many years and know a lot about Fu Ying's personality. They smelled the fragrance of chrysanthemums on his body and said, "I'm afraid it may not be a small matter. Let me guess what is the thing that can bother Xiaoying?"

"What's wrong with the rich shop?" "No."

"Zong Lin is messing with you." "Yeah, no."

"What happened to Daming Mansion?"

Fu Ying sighed and said, "Don't guess, it was Hou Hu who injured Zong Lin."

"It turns out that it's a child's business. What's the matter worth worrying about? Is it hurtful? Let's go and take a look."

When he arrived at the side room next door, Hou Zonglin was already asleep. There was an open book on the bedside. Hou Dayong looked at the cover curiously. It turned out to be a book called "The Legend of the Curly Bearded Guest". Hou Dayong looked at Fu Ying with some curiosity. Fu Ying explained: "Zong Lin likes the legendary story of the Tang people the most. I have read it for him three times."

Hou Dayong noticed that Hou Zonglin had a cloth wrapped around his forehead and there were bloodshot on it. It seemed that he was not clear about the injury, so he asked, "What's going on?" Fu Ying said angrily: "It's not a good thing Hou Hu did. A few days ago, he threw Zonglin to the ground, which was even more excessive this time."

After asking the reason clearly, Hou Dayong couldn't help laughing. It turned out that Hou Hu was taking Hou Zonglin to play in the yard. Hou Hu saw a little bird with no name on the tree in the yard, so he discussed with Hou Zonglin to hunt birds. The two found a stone from the garden. Hou Hu was older and stronger. He picked up the stone and threw it into the sky, trying to smash the birds on the tree. As a result, the stone did not hit the birds on the tree. When it landed, it smashed Hou Zonglin who was looking up and watching it, and it was full of flowers.
