Xianxia version of Water Margin

…

Defeating Xiao Qian means that Yanjing will no longer have reinforcements, and it also means that Jiang Hongfei's recovery of Yanjing has been settled.

Not long after, Ma Ling came to Yanjing City with Jiang Hongfei's order, and told the people in Yanjing City who had surrendered to Liangshan, including Li Chuwen and other Liao people who had surrendered to Liangshan. As soon as Jiang Hongfei arrived at Juyongguan, the gable wall at the entrance of Juyongguan suddenly collapsed. , the Liao army collapsed without a fight. Jiang Hongfei has led the Liangshan army to occupy Juyong Pass and will come to Yanjing tomorrow.

Knowing that there was such an unbelievable thing, the people in Shuibo Liangshan in Yanjing City and Li Chuwen and other Liao people who surrendered in Shuibo Liangshan all looked in disbelief. Some people with high political sensitivity thought that Jiang Hongfei took advantage of Juyong Pass to Kong, easily captured Juyong Pass. The reason why it was said to be a miracle from heaven was entirely to build momentum for Jiang Hongfei to take control of Yanjing City.

Not to mention the miracle from heaven, even if there is no miracle from heaven, Jiang Hongfei, the new master of Yanjing City and even Yandi, comes to Yanjing City, which is also the top priority of Yanjing City.

In order to present themselves well in front of their new masters, Li Chuwen and other former Liao officials were very active and even attentive.

However, Jiang Hongfei had already ordered to appoint Li Gang as Yanjing's left-behind and Yanjing magistrate to be responsible for all government affairs in Yanjing, and Chen Yu as Yanjing's pacifier to be responsible for all Yanjing's military affairs. In other words, Li Gang was equivalent to the prime minister of Yan. Chen Yuan is equivalent to the privy envoy of Yandi.

In addition, Wu Yong and Chen Xizhen, two military advisors with very high power and status in Shuibo Liangshan, were in Yanjing City.

Under this situation, Li Chuwen and other Liao officials had to ask Wu Yong for instructions on anything they wanted to do.

Wu Yong, Chen Xizhen, Li Gang, Chen Yu and others are all the best among the best. They know very well that now that Yanjing City is newly acquired, many things still cannot be done without Li Chuwen and other former Liao officials, so they treat Li Chuwen and other former Liao officials I am also very polite.

Under such a general environment, with the joint efforts of the people from Shuibo Liangshan in Yanjing City and Li Chuwen and other Liao people who surrendered to Shuibo Liangshan, the ceremony for Jiang Hongfei to take over Yanjing City was very grand.

As soon as Jiang Hongfei led 20,000 troops to Yanjing City, all the Liangshan troops who had arrived in Yanjing City lined up to receive Jiang Hongfei's review.

Jiang Hongfei did not ride a horse, but rode on his divine pet, the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard.

Not only that, Jiang Hongfei also put on gold armor with wild goose feathers and a very stylish red cloak.

In this way, Jiang Hongfei is naturally the most dazzling existence.

Jiang Hongfei rode through the military formation on a brocade-patterned one-horned leopard. All the generals of the Liangshan army, all fully armored, stood in two rows facing each other to accept Jiang Hongfei's review.

Jiang Hongfei waved to the Liangshan Army soldiers: "Hello, brothers!"

The officers and soldiers of the Liangshan Army shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor!"

This was not in front of Juyongguan, and there was no miracle from heaven, but a very formal political occasion.

But even in this very formal political occasion, it is not an ordinary thing for all the soldiers to shout "Long live my emperor!"

Jiang Hongfei felt blessed in his heart: "Does anyone want to persuade you to enter?"

It's no wonder Jiang Hongfei made such a guess.

In fact, it is completely normal for Jiang Hongfei's ministers to have such thoughts.

You know, after Jiang Hongfei led the Liangshan Army to the north to conquer the Liao Dynasty, both Jiang Hongfei and all the civil and military officials under Jiang Hongfei realized that it was really inconvenient and even a little embarrassing for Jiang Hongfei not to establish the Yuan Dynasty or reform the system. .

For example, when Jiang Hongfei wrote a letter to Yelu Chun, he couldn't even write a title and could only use his own name.

For example, outsiders want to show respect to Jiang Hongfei, but they don't know what to call Jiang Hongfei. They have no choice but to call Jiang Hongfei the "Gong of Qi" who was given the title by the Zhao Song Dynasty. However, Jiang Hongfei and the Zhao Song Dynasty are not affiliated at all. They use Zhao Song. The title given to Jiang Hongfei by the dynasty is a very ridiculous thing in itself.

For another example, it would be very troublesome for some prairie tribes who took advantage of the situation or had a deep hatred against the Jin Kingdom to declare their vassal status to Jiang Hongfei, because they did not know how to write the petition, and in the end they could only be nondescript. The locals call Shuibo Liangshan "Da Shuibo Country".

A few months ago, Jiang Hongfei was unwilling to reform the Yuan Dynasty and ascend the throne as emperor because Jiang Hongfei's territory was still unstable at that time, and he had just negotiated peace with the Zhao and Song dynasties, promising that he would not reform the Yuan Dynasty, proclaim himself emperor, or even proclaim himself emperor. Not even a prince.

Moreover, at that time, Jiang Hongfei was also worried that once he Jianyuan was reorganized and ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, the Zhao and Song dynasties might not care about Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Fang La, and fight with him to the end, allowing Tian Hu, Wang Qing, and Fang La to take advantage. , or let Hu Lu take advantage.

The key is that this will delay Jiang Hongfei's recovery of Yanyun Sixteen Prefectures.

In addition, at that time, Shuibo Liangshan had just defeated the Zhao and Song dynasties, and everything was in a mess politically, militarily, and economically, so Jiang Hongfei did not dare to act rashly.

To put it bluntly, Jiang Hongfei was not ready at all a few months ago, so he just made a stab at it first.

Nowadays, Jiang Hongfei has completely stabilized the situation in Shandong and Hebei, and even Jiang Hongfei's territory in the southeast has reached a certain scale. Now Jiang Hongfei will soon regain the territory of Yan. It can be said that whether it is territory or reputation, Jiang Hongfei Now they have reached the point where they can establish the Yuan Dynasty, reorganize the system, ascend the throne and proclaim themselves emperor.

In addition, the people in Jiang Hongfei's territory, mainly those in Shandong, northern Hebei, and Fujian, have settled down after a year of recuperation and recuperation.

What this brought about was that Jiang Hongfei was deeply loved by the people in his administration.

As for the Zhao and Song Dynasty, its weak nature has now been exposed. Not only will it be divided by the four major bandits, but its national strength will definitely decline, and it will not be able to threaten Shuibo Liangshan in a short time.

In other words, the conditions for Jiang Hongfei to restructure and ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor are ripe.

At this time, Jiang Hongfei said that I want to "build the city high, accumulate grain widely, and slowly become the king", which is really a bit too pretentious.

After all, Jiang Hongfei snatched one-third of Shandong, Hebei, Fujian, and Zhejiang from the Zhao and Song dynasties, and recovered the Yan land that the Zhao and Song dynasties had not been able to recover for more than two hundred years. Hard power is here.

To put it in a more intuitive way.

The current territory of the Xixia Dynasty is not as big as Jiang Hongfei's; the Jin Kingdom, which is as fierce as a tiger in a single operation, is not much larger than Jiang Hongfei's territory now.

What is more intuitive is that Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing all underwent restructuring in Jianyuan. Which of their territories was larger than Jiang Hongfei's? Which military strength is stronger than Jiang Hongfei's? Which politics, economy, or culture is deeper than Jiang Hongfei's?

Under such circumstances, it is really unreasonable that Jiang Hongfei did not establish the Yuan Dynasty and reform the system, and did not ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

At least that's how it seems to many of Jiang Hongfei's ministers.

As for the peace treaty signed with the Zhao and Song Dynasties?

Just tear it apart.

Aren't things like peace treaties meant to be torn apart?

Furthermore, do you think that if the Zhao and Song Dynasties successfully eliminated Fang La, Tian Hu, and Wang Qing, they would not tear up the peace treaty signed with Shuibo Liangshan and attack Jiang Hongfei?

Don't be naive.

Don’t you see, Tan Yuan’s alliance will be torn apart by the Zhao and Song dynasties at will?

Therefore, there are only eternal interests between countries, and everything else is false.

In fact, Jiang Hongfei had already met the conditions for Jianyuan's restructuring and ascended the throne to become emperor.

However, at that time, there was still a small problem that prevented Jiang Hongfei from reforming the system and ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, that is, there was no place for Jiang Hongfei to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

Now, Jiang Hongfei has captured Yanjing, and even this last small problem has been solved.

It is normal for some people under Jiang Hongfei to want to persuade him to join.

After all, as long as Jiang Hongfei ascends the throne and proclaims himself emperor, the people under Jiang Hongfei will definitely rise with the tide. Everyone, not to mention internal ministers and foreign generals, will also be able to obtain official positions and will no longer hold the title of bandit as before.

Jiang Hongfei thought about it again, and Wang Lun's face appeared in his mind.

Although no one was sent to investigate, Jiang Hongfei estimated that this matter was most likely related to Wang Lun.

As for Wang Lun's purpose, it is very simple - he wants to be prime minister.

Speaking of this, there is actually nothing wrong with it.

You know, over the years, Wang Lun worked hard and sacrificed so much for Shuibo Liangshan that even in his forties, his hair was more than half gray and his body was very overdrawn.

The key is that with Wang Lun's efforts, the politics of Shuibo Liangshan have been developing steadily according to the route set by Jiang Hongfei.

It is no exaggeration to say that Wang Lun played the most important role in politics.

Under such circumstances, if Jiang Hongfei were to restructure his country and ascend the throne as emperor, Wang Lun would definitely be the best choice for prime minister.

Some people may wonder, if this is the case, why is Wang Lun still in such a hurry? Doesn't the prime minister belong to him sooner or later?

The answer is that Wang Lun felt threatened.

This threat was not brought to Wang Lun by one or two people, but by too many people who made Wang Lun feel threatened.

Like Xiao Jiasui, Xu Guanzhong, Li Gang, Chen Yu, Zhao Ding, Chen Kangbo, and General Lu.

In the past two years, a large number of outstanding talents have emerged from Shuibo Liangshan.

Whether Wang Lun admits it or not, the abilities of these talents are above his.

And, to be honest, as Shuibo Liangshan becomes more and more powerful, Wang Lun's ability to govern is already a bit beyond his ability. He can only rely on hard work to make up for his lack of ability.

Wang Lun was very afraid that if he delayed for a long time, his position as prime minister would be lost, so he was inevitably a little anxious.

It is precisely because of this that when Jiang Hongfei thinks of someone trying to persuade him to join, the first thing Jiang Hongfei thinks of is Wang Lun.

However, both Wang Lun and others knew that Jiang Hongfei had very strong ideas. If Jiang Hongfei did not want to reform the country and ascend the throne as emperor, it would be useless what others said.

Therefore, there is no guarantee that those who want to persuade him to join will take advantage of the situation to test Jiang Hongfei's attitude.

Jiang Hongfei even thought that if he didn't give everyone a clear rejection, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before he would be wearing a yellow robe.

As for Jiang Hongfei, does he want to reform Jianyuan and ascend the throne as emperor?

Needless to say?

Historically, a total of 2,132 years have passed since Qin Shihuang Ying Zheng was proclaimed "Emperor" and ended with the abdication of Puyi, the last emperor of Qing Dynasty, and a total of 83 feudal dynasties. A total of only There were four hundred and ninety-four emperors, and many of them were short-lived emperors who did not last long.

Let me ask, if there is a chance to be an emperor, who wouldn't want to be an emperor?

Jiang Hongfei is no exception.

However, Jiang Hongfei thought about it, but he really didn't think about it. Is it suitable for Jianyuan to restructure and ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor now?

At this moment, it was not the time to think about this. Jiang Hongfei ignored the soldiers shouting "Long live my emperor, long live the emperor", and instead said: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work."

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers shouted in unison: "It is our duty to repay the emperor's kindness!!!" The momentum was overwhelming.

This scene brought great shock to the people of Yanjing, and also brought a huge sense of security to many people in Yanjing.

Soon, Jiang Hongfei rode a brocade-patterned one-horned leopard to the gate of Yanjing City.

Wu Yong, Chen Xizhen, Li Gang, Chen Yu, Chen Kangbo and other ministers from Liangshan, Li Chuwen, Li Chuneng, Yu Zhongwen, Cao Yongyi, Liu Yanzong, Xiao Yixin and other officials from the Northern Liao and Han Dynasties all stood at the gate of Yanjing City They lined up to greet Jiang Hongfei.

Jiang Hongfei walked a little further and saw a woman wearing a Liao phoenix robe kneeling in front of Wu Yong and others. She held up the jade seal with both hands, and there was a coffin and a white lamb behind her.

No need to guess, Jiang Hongfei also knew that this woman must be Xiao Puxian, the Queen Mother of Northern Liao Dynasty.

Seeing this, Jiang Hongfei smiled slightly and said in his heart: "The performance is quite complete."

Jiang Hongfei would not underestimate Xiao Pu Xianxian because she appeared to be at her mercy.

Jiang Hongfei knew better than anyone else that Xiao Pu's virtuous daughter in history almost shattered Zhao Ji's dream of regaining Yanyun's sixteen states, and she was even one of the causes of the disgrace of Jingkang.

Jiang Hongfei thought to himself: "A wolf will always be a wolf. Even if she pretends to be a sheep, it won't change the fact that she is a wolf."

However, Jiang Hongfei would not think highly of Xiao Pu's virtuous woman. After all, even in history, she had not achieved real success, let alone in this world of her own existence.

When he came to Xiao Pu's side, Jiang Hongfei stretched out his arms and took Xiao Pu's daughter into his arms. As for the jade seal in Xiao Pu's hand, Jiang Hongfei didn't even look at it.

——Can it still grow legs and run?

Xiao Puxian didn't struggle at all. She seemed to accept her fate and let Jiang Hongfei put her on the back of the brocade-patterned one-horned leopard and hold her in his arms.

Sudden!

Jiang Hongfei said without looking back: "I want to eat that sheep tonight."

Hearing Jiang Hongfei's words, Du Bo, Lu Junyi, Sun An, Shi Wengong and Wang Jin immediately drew their sabers and came up to hack the lamb to death.

Seeing this scene, Xian Nu Xiao Pu in Jiang Hongfei's arms trembled in fright, and then buried her head in Jiang Hongfei's arms.

Jiang Hongfei, wearing golden armor with a wild goose feather ring, riding a golden leopard with a brocade pattern and one horn, holding the virtuous Xiao Pu in his arms, looked majestic. Behind him was a large group of cavalry. Under the watch of the Yanjing people, Jiang Hongfei drove into the city of Yanjing in a majestic manner.

Jiang Hongfei arrived at the inner city palace and slowly climbed up to the Long Live Hall.

This is where Yelu Chun and Xiao Puxian once gave orders.

Inside and outside the palace, there are three posts, one post, five steps and one sentry, which are heavily guarded.

Jiang Hongfei sat on the dragon chair with a solemn expression.

Prime Minister Li Chuwen led the civil and military monks and Taoists from Northern Liao to go out of Danfeng Gate and come to the court to pay their respects.

Jiang Hongfei said: "Since you have no intention of rejecting me, I will spare your lives. However, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. If you connive and encourage Yelu Chun and Xiao Puxian to reject my master, you must impose the punishment."

After a pause, Jiang Hongfei pronounced the sentence loudly: "All the officials, gentry and nobles of the original Liao Kingdom ransacked their homes. Those who were guilty of the most evil crimes were brought to the public trial. Those who had meritorious service could be treated leniently, and all the slaves were restored to our citizens. The civilians who did not make any mistakes did not commit any crimes. Dare to Those who resist will be killed without mercy, and will be executed immediately.”

As soon as Jiang Hongfei finished speaking, the expressions of all the civil and military officials, monks, Taoists and elders in Beiliao became very ugly.

But these people dare not show it.

Now Jiang Hongfei's army of more than 200,000 people has surrounded Yanjing City in Yandi. Who dares to touch Jiang Hongfei's bad luck? What is the difference between that and seeking death?

Following Jiang Hongfei's order, the vigorous house raids and public trials began...

At the same time, all the civil and military officials in Shuibo Liangshan presented congratulations to Jiang Hongfei, congratulating Jiang Hongfei on regaining the land of Yan.

Among them, Zhan Du was the most active. He also wrote a poem "Pingyan Poetry" praising Jiang Hongfei:

"The spring scenery in the Changting Pavilion greets the heroes, and the mountains and rivers reflect the red sun. The swords and halberds sway in the willow moon at night, and the flags are blown by the apricot blossoms in the breeze at dawn. When we go, we decide on the strategy of peace and military affairs, and later we must achieve great achievements in saving the world. To repay the generals and officials of Yanshan, peace is obtained. Laughing."
