Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 532 Chaofa Baidi City

Hearing that the king of Yue had prepared the food for the army, Du Hongjian was really moved.

Unexpectedly, the king of Yue was so benevolent. This made Du Hongjian, who had just felt the coldness from the emperor, gradually warm up his heart.

The king of Yue was so upright, Du Hongjian secretly swore that he would remember this kindness when he arrived in Hexi, and he would never conflict with the king casually.

Zhang Tianlun accepted Du Hongjian's commission and immediately went to Wuwei City to take over the batch of grain.

However, Zhang Tianlun also made a request for the staff to ask him to make it.

"Jie Shuai, the King of Yue also has a request."

Du Hongjian frowned.

I only heard Zhang Tianlun say: "His Royal Highness Yue Wang wants his people to personally distribute food to the soldiers."

It turned out that it was just such a request, Du Hongjian heaved a sigh of relief, he thought that the king of Yue was going to make some excessive request.

If it's just this request, it's not too much. Now that food is in short supply, the King of Yue is willing to use his own food to supply Shuofang's army, which has already made Du Hongjian grateful.

Du Hongjian readily agreed and said, "Of course there is no problem. When the time comes for the food to enter the barracks, tell the soldiers that the food is from Hexi, and then the King Yue's quartermaster will deliver it to the soldiers. That's all right." Bar?"

Zhang Tianlun said hastily: "Master Jiedu envoy is benevolent, so that the poor can turn to Longyou."

Zhang Tianlun received Du Hongjian's promise, and immediately took people to Wuwei to get food. At this time, some well-informed soldiers already knew the news that King Yue sent food to the army.

Tan Yong also heard the discussion in the barracks, he was grateful for King Yue's benevolence again, and became more and more curious about the virtuous King Longyou.

Lingzhou City is not too far from Wuwei, and some merchants will come to Lingzhou to buy goods.

Every time we talk about Wuwei, it is a super bustling city.

There are also some people in Lingzhou City who really can't survive, and choose to go to Wuwei City to seek a living.

However, Tan Yong's family can still survive in Lingzhou, coupled with the tradition of inseparable from their homeland, Tan Yong is also very curious about Wuwei.

I always heard that Wuwei is located in the south of the Yangtze River, warm in winter and cool in summer, and there is no such big snowstorm in Lingzhou.

This time, there was a snowstorm at home, and the family almost froze to death. Now Tan Yong also thought of moving to Wuwei.

He decided to visit Wuwei this time. If it was as good as the merchant said, then he would take his mother and brother over there.

There are also many soldiers who have the same idea as Tan Yong. Although Lingzhou is at the same altitude as Hexi, the area where Lingzhou is located lacks high mountains to block it, and the cold current from the north can always drive straight into Lingzhou.

There are high mountains in the north and south of the Hexi Corridor to block the cold current, but if the winter is warm and the summer is cool, the rainfall in spring and autumn is more abundant than Lingzhou. The dense water network is a good place for farming.

These military households of the Shuofang Army also rely on farming for their livelihood. In recent years, the land has become more and more barren, and the military service of the imperial court has become more and more serious. It seems that the younger brother who is about to grow up will also be conscripted.

Tan Yong also heard from businessmen that there would be no compulsory conscription in Wuwei, and soldiers not only get a salary, but the government also promised that the whole family of a soldier could enjoy preferential treatment.

Thinking of this, looking at his poor and poor family, Tan Yong looked forward to going to Wuwei this time.

It is hard to leave the homeland. If the homeland can no longer survive, what is the talk of hard to leave or not?

If he can live a better life in Hexi, Tan Yong doesn't mind moving his hometown to Wuwei.

There are also many soldiers in the army who think the same as him. In the past few years, the Shuofang Army followed Marshal Guo into the Guanzhong to suppress the rebellion. At the beginning, the court promised generous rewards.

Several times of tough battles with the puppet Yan, it was the blood of the Shuofang army that was shed.

Lingzhou suffered from a snowstorm this year, but the imperial court only exempted the rent for next year, did not take any disaster relief measures, and urged the Shuofang army to go to Hexi to defend against the Tibetans.

In contrast, the King of Yue was much more popular than the imperial court.

Just when the people of Lingzhou were shivering in the snow and celebrating the New Year in the midst of hunger and cold.

The edict of the imperial court to change the Yuan Dynasty has been continuously sent to various places. This year, it has been changed from the third year of Zhide to the first year of Qianyuan.

In Chang'an City, Wang Wei, who was at home guilty of surrendering the puppet Yan, received an amnesty. The imperial court pardoned the sins of officials who had no choice but to rebel, and re-enabled them to enter the court as officials.

After experiencing this catastrophe of life and death, Wang Wei can be regarded as having an epiphany, and his heart for fame and fortune has faded a lot.

He resigned from the imperial court to resume his position, and asked the imperial court to give him a clean and idle job for the elderly.

Wang Wei is because he has a good younger brother who is a high-ranking official in the court, and he is willing to give up the high-ranking official and generous salary to protect him.

It was also because Wang Wei was good at painting and calligraphy, and Prime Minister Cui Yuan liked calligraphy and painting. Wang Wei's younger brother Wang Jin took Wang Wei's landscape paintings to beg Cui Yuan, and Cui Yuan wrote a letter to plead for Wang Wei.

If you want to compare what happened to Wang Wei, Li Bai will be much more unlucky.

Because Yongwang's rebellion was an internal turmoil in the royal family, such matters could not be publicly discussed as crimes.

After King Yong was killed, all the followers of King Yong were held accountable by the court. Li Bai, who was forcibly invited to the army by King Yong, was convicted by the court for traveling three thousand miles because he once wrote poems to flatter King Yong.

Li Bai's place of exile was Yelang Kingdom, but Li Bai was lucky, because his reputation was too great, and ministers continued to write letters for him to complain about grievances, and even prime ministers wrote letters to Li Bai to intercede.

But this time the world amnesty, prisoners like Li Bai who participated in the rebellion were not included in the amnesty list.

Wang Chengwei in Chang'an thought of Li Bai who was exiled, and found Prime Minister Pei Mian to intercede for him.

Pei Mian himself also cherished Li Bai's poetic talent, and specifically proposed to the emperor to pardon Li Bai when he was on duty in the palace.

Li Heng, who received the new almanac and the elixir at the Zhengdan Dachao Meeting, was in a happy mood. He suddenly remembered that it was also at the night banquet of the Lantern Festival. Taking off his boots, he wrote three amazing poems including "Yun Xiang Clothes and Flower Xiang Rong".

Now that the emperor has lived in Xingqing Palace, he has lost his influence. Thinking of the death of Yongwang, Yongwang's subordinates have already fled in all directions. Li Heng agreed to Pei Mian's request with a swipe of his pen, and ordered Li Bai to be pardoned.

At this time, Li Bai was still on his way to escort Yelang, and had just arrived at Baidi City.

The news of the amnesty quickly spread to Baidi City. Li Bai, who was already full of white hair, bowed in the direction of Chang'an after learning that he was pardoned. His eyes were full of tears, and he was finally pardoned by the court!
In fact, Li Bai's life along the way was pretty good. The officials who escorted Li Bai were also fans of Li Bai, and they took good care of Li Bai along the way.

However, Li Bai felt wronged. It was Yong Wang who forced him to enter the military camp. At that time, Yong Wang had the order of the emperor, and it was the banner of suppressing the rebellion. Who knew that he had the intention of usurping the throne at that time.

Li Bai, who was extremely naive in politics, was inexplicably involved in the treacherous struggle of Bo Yun in the Li Tang royal family, and became a victim of the royal infighting.

Baidi City was the place where Liu Bei left Zhuge Liang alone, but since the end of the Three Kingdoms period, Baidi City has been abandoned.

Li Bai, who was pardoned in Baidi City, rode a flat boat in a happy mood, went down the river from Baidi City, and wrote the poem Chaofa Baidi City.

In the courtesy of Baidi Caiyun, Qianling Jiangling returned one day.

The apes on both sides of the strait couldn't help, and Qingzhou had passed the Ten Thousand Mountains.

Jiangling, which is the city of Jingzhou in Hubei, is an important city in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. During the Three Kingdoms period, it was an important city that the Kingdom of Shu and the Kingdom of Wu competed for.

Mrs. Zong, Li Bai's last wife, is now in Jiangling. Li Bai is eager to return home and wants to reunite with Mrs. Zong.

Among a group of poets in the mid-Tang Dynasty, Gao Shi had the smoothest official career.

Relying on the merits of pacifying Yongwang, Gao Shi has been ranked as Huainan Jiedushi, which is already one of the best high positions in the world.

The place where the Huainan Jiedu envoy was stationed was Yangzhou City. Gao Shi took his wife and children to visit the Daming Temple outside Yangzhou City during the Zhengdan holiday.

Gao Shi was a little disappointed after learning that Master Jianzhen was still sitting in a life-and-death test and could not come out to meet guests.

However, Gao Shi's wife is a devout Buddhist, and she insisted on going to the Qiling Pagoda to see the Buddha bones, so Gao Shi could only climb up the Qiling Pagoda together.

As a scholar-bureaucrat, Gao Shi was not interested in Buddhism. From the beginning of his official career, Gao Shi sought to make contributions.

Gao Shi began his career as a soldier after joining Ge Shuhan's account, and finally became the governor of Huainan by virtue of his military exploits.

It stands to reason that after realizing my dream, Gao Shi should be in a happy mood, but Gao Shi's mood is always bad these days.

Originally, I wanted to come to Daming Temple to find the famous Master Jianzhen, but I didn't expect to meet Master Jianzhen.

After Gao Shi's wife visited the Qiling Pagoda, she wanted to go to the Buddha Pagoda forest behind the monastery to take a look, but Gao Shi was a little tired, so she went down to rest in the monastery hall under the guidance of the Zhike monk.

The winter in Yangzhou City is much more comfortable than that outside the Great Wall. Gao Shi sat in the monk’s room, and naturally the monks brought melons, fruits and snacks. This Daming Temple is also a famous scenic spot in Yangzhou. In the monk’s room, you can see the exquisite courtyard, wooden fish chant The voice of the scriptures also made Gao Shi's irritable mood more comfortable.

In the monk's room, there was a young man dressed as a scholar who was seriously reading a book.

Gao Shi seemed to think of himself who was preparing to take the imperial examination. Could it be that he was a scholar from Yangzhou?
Gao Shi was traveling in casual clothes today, and he came to this scholar with great interest, but found that what this young man was reading was not the Four Books and Five Classics, but a volume of "Shui Jing Zhu".

How come there are still readers who read this kind of book?Gao Shi became interested in this scholar.
