Early Tang Dynasty Concubine

Chapter 145
"Your boy is here, come here, I have something to do!" Cheng Yaojin didn't have a family banquet at this time, I really don't know why this old man likes family banquets so much, since the family has a little bit of money, it has become more unscrupulous.It's okay to call friends.

There was a person sitting in front of Cheng Yao today, he didn't know him, but he looked familiar, or he seemed to have seen him before, and it seemed that someone who could sit with Cheng Yaojin like this would not be a small person.

"Fan Guogong, you can call him Uncle Duan!" Cheng Yaojin said carelessly.

Cheng Churui knew immediately who this person was, Duan Zhixuan.This is a remarkable person, definitely Li Shimin's old hardcore, and Cheng Yaojin is also inseparable!
"I've met Uncle Duan!" Cheng Churui stepped forward to salute.Etiquette can't be bad, Cheng Yaojin introduced himself solemnly, and he knew that this person has a lot of weight.

"Hahaha, Prince Consort Pingyang, I've heard of your name a long time ago. I was the leader of the army a few days ago, and I heard a lot about you. It's not bad! You have a good son, much better than me. " Duan Zhixuan looked at Cheng Churui and said.

Cheng Churui replied modestly: "No way, it's so-so, not as good as you said!"

"Okay! You kid, don't play those fake things. This is not an outsider. Your Uncle Duan came back this time for something. Have you heard of it? Feng An sent his son to Chang'an recently!"

Feng An, speaking of this person, I need to write a little more introduction, he is indeed a capable person among capable people.

Feng Ang, courtesy name Mingyuan, was born in Liangde, Gaozhou (now Gaozhou, Guangdong). He claimed to be a descendant of Feng Hong, the Northern Yan monarch during the Sixteen Kingdoms period.Because Feng Hong couldn't bear to surrender to the Northern Wei Dynasty, he fled to Goguryeo and sent his son Feng Ye to lead 300 people across the sea to return to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.After the fall of Beiyan, Feng Ye stayed in Panyu.Feng Rongshi, Feng Ye's grandson, served as the governor of Liang Luozhou in the Southern Dynasty.Feng Rong's son, Feng Bao, married Mrs. Xian, the daughter of Xi's family in Gaoliang, Lingnan, and became the leader of the Yue nationality in Gaoliang area. Liang appointed him as the prefect of Gaoliang in the Southern Dynasty.Feng Bao and Mrs. Xian gave birth to a son, Feng Pu, Feng An's father, Shilong prefect.

In the tenth year of Emperor Kaihuang (590), Wang Zhongxuan, a barbarian from Panyu, rebelled. Leaders of various ethnic groups in Lingnan area responded to him with troops, so Wang Zhongxuan led his army to surround Guangzhou.Feng An's grandmother, Mrs. Xian, sent her grandson Feng Xuan (Feng An's brother) to lead an army to rescue Guangzhou. Feng Xuan had always been friendly with the rebel general Chen Fozhi, so he deliberately stayed there.Madam Xian was very angry when she learned about it, so she sent people to the army to arrest Feng Xuan and imprisoned him in Zhoucheng Prison. Feng An also sent an army to attack Chen Fozhi.Feng An led his army to the South China Sea, joined forces with the Sui Dynasty general Lu Yuan, and then joined forces with Guangzhou defender Murong Sanzang to attack Wang Zhongxuan. Wang Zhongxuan's troops were defeated, so Guangzhou was preserved.Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty appointed Feng An as governor of Gaozhou because of his meritorious service in suppressing the rebellion.

In the first year of Renshou (601), the bureaucrats of Chaozhou, Chengzhou and other five prefectures rebelled. Feng An galloped to the capital and asked the imperial court to send troops to crusade against the bureaucrats.Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered the left servant to shoot Yang Su and Feng An to discuss the situation of the rebellion of the bureaucrats. Yang Su was surprised by Feng An and said, "I didn't expect there to be such a person among the barbarians!" Then Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty ordered Feng An to collect The troops in Jiangnan and Lingnan attacked Liaoren.After the rebellion subsided, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty appointed Dr. Feng Angjin Ziguanglu and the prefect of Hanyang.

In the seventh year of Daye (611), Feng An followed Sui Yang Emperor Yang Guang to expedition to Liaodong, and was promoted to General Zuo Wuwei due to his meritorious service.

In the second year of Yining (618), the Sui Dynasty fell. Feng An rushed back to Lingnan, gathered the people, and became the leader himself, commanding 5 people. [9] Soon, Feng An attached himself to Lin Shihong, who ruled south of the Five Ridges, with Cangwu, Gaoliang, Zhuya, and Panyu

In the third year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty (620), Gao Facheng and Xian Baoche, the bandit commanders in Guangzhou (one known as Panyu) and Xinzhou (now Xinxing, Guangdong), killed the former officials of the Sui Dynasty, occupied the two states, and attached themselves to Lin Shihong.Feng An led his army to defeat them.Soon, Xi Baoche's nephew Shen Zhichen regrouped the army in Xinzhou, claiming to be the leader, and confronting Feng An.Feng An led the army to attack. As soon as the two armies confronted each other, Feng An took off his helmet and shouted: "Do you know me?" The team thus collapsed.Feng Ang captured Xi Baoche, Xi Zhichen and others alive, so he occupied the territories of Guangzhou, Cangwu (now Wuzhou, Guangxi), and Zhuya (now Leizhou Peninsula, Hainan Island), and claimed to be the general manager.At that time, someone persuaded Feng An: "The Sui Dynasty is the end of the world. It is falling apart, the current situation is turbulent, and the country is in chaos. Although the Tang King came into being, his influence and enlightenment have not yet convinced people. There is no such thing as Lingnan and Baiyue. It belongs to. Duke Ming conquered and settled [-] prefectures, covering thousands of miles. How can Zhao Tuo’s nine counties in the Han Dynasty be comparable? The current status has not yet been determined, please add the title of "King of Nanyue". "Feng An Said: "My family has lived in Baiyue for five generations. The land under the jurisdiction of the prefects and counties is only my surname. I have children and treasures. There are few people like me who are rich and noble in the world. I am often afraid that I will not be able to bear the burden. How dare you follow Zhao Tuo's example and proclaim your own king if you have caused the ancestors to suffer humiliation?"

On July 622th in the fifth year of Wude ([-]), Feng An accepted the letter from Li Jing, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, and led his subordinates to submit to the Tang Dynasty.Emperor Gaozu of Tang Dynasty Li Yuan set up the eight prefectures of Gao, Luo, Chun, Bai, Ya, Dan, Lin, and Zhen in Feng An's jurisdiction, appointed Feng An as the general manager of Shangzhu State and Gaozhou (now Yangjiang, Guangdong), and named Wu Guogong, and soon changed the title to Duke Yue appointed Feng An's son Feng Zhidai as the governor of Chunzhou (now Yangchun, Guangdong) and Feng Zhiyu as the governor of Donghezhou (now Leizhou, Guangdong).Soon, Tang Gaozu changed Feng An to be Geng Guogong.

"Old Duan, speaking of this matter, I thought there was a war to fight, but I didn't know there was no fart, so I made a fuss. Speaking of it, Feng An was really willing to send his eldest son here!"

"Zhijie, you just want to fight. Speaking of which, the Central Plains has just been pacified, surrounded by tigers and wolves, and there are still small-scale wars in some places. If Lingnan really fights at this time, it will be hard to say." Duan Zhixuan smiled. Said.

"What's going on?" Cheng Churui seemed to have thought of something, which was also recorded in history, and it was also written in TV movies.

"This matter, speaking of it, wasn't provoked by those idle guys to mobilize the emperor's suspicion. To be honest, it's not difficult to imagine what happened after this. There are too many factors in it, maybe it's just me conjecture, but I always feel unreliable."

"Boy, you have a lot of ghosts, let me analyze it for my father. This matter still has to start more than a month ago. Someone in the court said that Feng An was going to rebel. Do you know that Feng An is a sky-high emperor in Lingnan?" In a faraway place, with heavy soldiers in hand, to put it bluntly, the people there don't know who the emperor is, but they do know who Feng An is, then they are a king who ceded the land."
