Chapter 115 How the Empress was trained

Chapter 115 How did the Queen train her

The mist in Ye County was hazy, like a fairyland. On the official road, a team appeared. At the front were sixteen ceremonial commanders and seventy-six ceremonial guards wearing armor, followed by advocacy, and behind were six-faced high-fanged celestials.

The six banners are filled with big characters in the official script:

——General Chen, the General of the Cavalry

——Anxi Grand Capital Protector Chen

——Duke Chen of Liang

——Chen Chen, the Anxi General Strategy Pacification Envoy

——Kaifuyi and the three departments Chen

——An Xichen, the governor of the ceremonial throne

However, Chen Ying, who was lying in the carriage, was not happy.

It is a coward to shrink your head as an ostrich. Chen Ying always thinks this way, but now Chen Ying thinks about it carefully, isn’t he an ostrich?

When the ostrich cannot solve any problem, he hides in the soft carriage, shakes gently along the road, and drinks the awakened grapes, and lives a comfortable life.

However, the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind continued. Just when Chen Ying had just crossed the Kunlun Valley and arrived in Ye County, Chen Ying received news from Chang'an that Cheng Zhijie was preparing to rescue Changsun Wugui and Li Shimin's sons, but the matter was exposed. Cheng Zhijie and more than 4,000 soldiers under his command were all captured.

As a prisoner, he naturally has no human rights. Even Cheng Zhijie is no exception.

Under the Three Woods, no one can keep the secret. Moreover, Cheng Zhijie is also a smart person. He knows that although he is all deathful, the deathful man does not mean that he is not afraid of death, nor does it mean that the deathful man can withstand the torture in the Heavenly Prison.

After entering the Tianzhu, the Left Chief of the Shangshu Dai Zhou was responsible for interrogating Cheng Zhijie. Cheng Zhijie knew that Dai Zhou was a gentleman and could also deceive him. However, when Li Jiancheng replaced the left guard General Li Anyan to try the case, Cheng Zhijie was very clever and chose to be frank and lenient, so as to avoid suffering from flesh and blood.

Including how many soldiers and horses Li Shimin had in Fusang mainland, the army's defense, the population, and the fact that Chen Ying secretly helped Li Shimin leave Chang'an were also shaken off.

Li Jiancheng was furious at the time and almost roared and asked Chen Ying to return to Chang'an, but it was because Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling persuaded Li Jiancheng in time.

Wei Zheng knew very well that forcing Chen Ying to rebel was to worry about the overthrow of the Tang Dynasty. Chen Ying had too much energy. Once he turned against the court, he might be deteriorating the entire northwest. The Tang Dynasty had to be prepared to fight against Chen Ying at the cost of millions of casualties before he could deal with Chen Ying.

Chen Ying didn't know how Li Jiancheng reacted, but the situation seemed to be very bad.

Chen Ying looked at the white clouds outside the car window and sighed long, "Why is it so difficult to be a good person?"

At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped.

Before Chen Ying asked what was going on, Guo Luo told outside the car: "Master, old friends are asking for a meeting!"

Chen Ying looked up at the sky and ordered Guo Luo: "Let everyone camp on the spot!"

With four four-wheeled carriages that are 1,2 feet wide and 2,8 feet long, they are installed together to form a RV. These four carriages form a large suite.

Not long after, Yang Rong entered Chen Ying's suite.

Just when I saw Chen Ying, Yang Rong's eyes turned red and her eyes were covered with mist, as if she was about to cry: "Little cousin, I..."

Before Yang Rong could speak, Chen Ying waved his hand and said, "Okay, there is no need to say anything hypocritical."

Yang Rong smiled awkwardly and said, "I knew you were a cheerful person. I was cheated. No matter whether you believe it or not, let me tell you, how to solve this problem?"

When Wang Huaiyi, the manager of the Wang family in Taiyuan, found Wu Shitang, he proposed to marry Wang's daughter to Wu Yuanqing as his wife.

As a merchant from generation to generation, Wu Shitao cares about his identity as a merchant. Even though he is now named Duke Yingguo and Minister of Works, he still feels inferior. The Wang family in Taiyuan is willing to marry Wu, which is very tempting to Wu Shitao.

Yang Rong initially disagreed with helping Wang to send Du Hongye to Chen Ying, but the warriors thought about it. It was probably because the Wang family in Taiyuan wanted to use a woman to seduce Chen Ying and get some benefits from Chen Ying. The warriors ordered people to forge Yang Rong's letter of trust and wrote a short letter to Chen Ying.

It was too late when Yang Rong knew about this.

Yang Rong continued: "I thought that I was just a woman..."

In Yang Rong's opinion, no matter how Du Hongye wants to seduce Chen Ying, ordinary men will definitely fall into a trap, but for Chen Ying, Chen Ying will definitely not let them get what they want.

However, Yang Rong obviously ignored their plans and did not expect that their real purpose was to use Du Hongye to alienate the relationship between Li Xiuning and Chen Ying.

Chen Ying smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, this is good. It's easier to jump out all the ghosts and demons at once."

Yang Rong shook her head and said, "I'm blind. I want to get married with the warrior. I can't live this life!"

Hearing this, Chen Ying's head was wide.

According to history, Wu Meiniang entered the palace at the age of fourteen, but in fact Wu Zetian should be three years old at this time. Unfortunately, Yang Rong still has a normal belly and has been running around after giving birth to the eldest daughter Wu Shun.

Chen Ying felt that his sin was too great to give birth to Wu Zetian, a queen in history.

Chen Ying said: "Cousin, we are brothers and sisters. I know you won't harm me. It's just that, there's no need for you to go there in person for this matter?"

As he said that, Chen Ying pointed to Yang Rong's hand, and mottled frostbite appeared on her hand. I think Yang Rong suffered a lot this time.

Yang Rong said: "I came here this time and wanted to borrow some people from my cousin!"

"Borrow someone?" Chen Ying said in confusion: "Who is borrowing?"

At this time, Chen Ying was even more confused. If you want to say that Yang Rong is not Yang Rong in history, she now has more than a dozen iron ore and four salt ore, plus other industries. At least 20,000 to 30,000 people work for Yang Rong. When will no one be available to her?

Yang Rong told Chen Yingwei.

It turned out that Yang Rong had reached a preliminary deal with Asina Helu of the Western Turks. The elite cavalry of the Western Turks continued to attack the Sasanian Empire westward, and the materials they seized would be sold to Yang Rong. Yang Rong was responsible for changing the property robbed by Asina Helu and providing the armor, weapons, food and other materials they needed to use to the Asina Helu tribe of the Western Turks.

After learning about Yang Rong's plan, Chen Ying felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

He was actually beaten by the natives. Looking around, the Sassanian Empire was indeed a local tyrant. In 224 AD, when the Central Plains was still in the troubled times of the Three Kingdoms, the Sassanian family began to rise. Papek's son Ardashir I (reigned 224-241), overthrew the Parthian Empire, and was crowned in Taishe in 226, calling himself "King of the Kings".

He then occupied a vast area of ​​the former Parthian Empire and established the centralized Sassanian Persian feudal empire; he also conquered Armenia, smashed the union of the Parthian tribes and the Great Yuezhi people, and consolidated the empire's borders. He used the □ religion (i.e. Zoroastrian religion) as the state religion.

The Sassanian Empire replaced the Rest Empire, which is regarded as one of the two major forces in West Asia and Europe, and coexisted with the Roman Empire and the subsequent Byzantine Empire for more than four hundred years. Now the life of the Sassanian Empire has entered the countdown. If there is no interference from external factors, the Sassanian Empire will also die in more than twenty years.

Now, Asana Helu clearly realized that he and other Western Turkic tribes were definitely not opponents of the Tang Dynasty. They targeted the Sassanid Empire, a big fat pig that had been growing for four hundred years.

It can be imagined that the nobles of the Sassanian Empire held a large amount of gold, silver and treasures, but although gold, silver and treasures were precious, they were the most useless things and could neither be eaten nor drunk.

The Turks now have only force in their hands, which is the capital for their survival. The corrupt Sassanian cavalry will definitely not be the opponent of the Turkic cavalry, but the seized gold and silver treasures in their hands have no effect. Only by monetizing the gold and silver treasures can the Western Turks become more and more brave as they fight.

Looking around the world, in the Turks' cognition, only the Tang Dynasty had the strength to digest and absorb these spoils. Only the Tang Dynasty could feed back the bulk goods after accepting their spoils, and then let them pick up their swords again, continue to fight, and seize more spoils.

The Central Plains are too far away and Chang'an is too far away. Then Anxi is a good choice.

Chen Ying understood that Yang Rong was not only dirty, but also wanted to do the sinful slave trade. During the development of Anxi, she had entered a bottleneck period.

The biggest bottleneck is population.

The Tang Dynasty had too few populations and a large territory. Anxi was better, and there were not many fields suitable for cultivation, but there were too many fields that could be planted in Andong and Anbei Protectorates.
