The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 655 Return to the Jianghu

There were hereditary titles in the history of the Era, which evolved from the legacy of the very early aristocratic system. That kind of title and authority were integrated, and the formation of aristocratic families also evolved in this way.

From the past few dynasties, the inherited titles have been downgraded. After a few generations, there will be no titles. If you want to be awarded a title, you have to make meritorious deeds.

Inheriting a virtual noble is something that some dynasties have done before. At first, they thought the number was small, but the number increased every year, and in the end, they raised a group of idle parasites. It was not a good plan.

But any plan must look at the context. Put it in the context of this moment, that is the most appropriate plan that can stabilize the rear as quickly as possible. It is said that if we really want to raise a group of pigs, it will be a good thing for the court. As for whether the number will increase year by year in the future, we are now in the prime of spring and autumn, and we can continue to operate, step by step.

Tang Wanzhuang was talking about no weapons, but actually he was referring to the Cui family. Even the Tang family could inherit a hereditary marquis, but what about the Cui family?

Even if Xu Jue is not as awesome as before, at least your descendants will be guaranteed an iron rice bowl. You will have no worries compared to others. As long as the country survives, you will always have a bite to eat.

With this in mind, do you dare to let go and fight in the new wave, compete with a group of civilians and religious believers for scientific examinations, and welcome the new land tax system?

The sword has been broken, and it is impossible to restore it to its previous appearance. Can you get down this step?

If you want to do it, do it as soon as possible. If it's too late, it will be of no use...

Compared to Li Shentong's massacre of all the ministers, the approach here is the mildest... unless you are determined to establish a new dynasty.

Zhao Changhe deduced it in his mind for a while, secretly thinking that this method would be useful to Yang Jingxiu and others, but it should have a certain effect on Lao Cui, at least it could be discussed. If we can't come to an agreement, the worst possible outcome is to elope with Yangyang.

Thinking of this, he sighed: "I can try."

Tang Wanzhuang's beautiful eyes fixed on him and whispered: "My husband must be careful when leaving the capital... It's different from usual. Although my husband is usually dazzling, he has not become the key to anyone's eyes and will not use any means." to deal with you. But now, anyone with a discerning eye knows that you are the link that maintains this new dynasty...including all the gods and demons in the sky. Their eyes were once attracted by the late emperor, but now their eyes will also be focused on you, especially you. He also holds the Book of Heaven in his hand..."

Zhao Changhe laughed: "It has been a long time since I walked in the world and I have not experienced early pressure, and I am feeling a little uncomfortable. What's the big deal among the gods and demons in the sky? If I can kill one, I can kill the second!"

Tang Wanzhuang looked at this guy's fighting spirit, a little angry like a big child, but she also loved him in her heart.

Although Zhao Changhe has changed a lot now, his lawless and unruly spirit has always remained hidden in his bones. What attracts Cui Yuanyang and Tang Wanzhuang are the things that inspire him even more every time he faces adversity. Spirit.

Now Zhao Changhe seems to be the most powerful person in this dynasty, but in fact this dynasty is as fragile as a newborn baby. Whether it is power or high-end force, the pressure it faces is much greater than before. It is truly one of the most adverse situations. , there is a possibility of destruction at any time.

Tang Wanzhuang had previously defended Xia Longyuan fiercely, which was also the key point. It is said that Lao Xia caused chaos, which is true. However, objectively speaking, as long as he is alive, there will be no complete chaos. Now that he is gone, it is really a mess... If it is not chaotic enough, it is because of Zhao Changhe was maintaining and cleaning up, which no one had expected before. Only she, Tang Wanzhuang, had foreseen a scaly claw.

The most dangerous person in the world now is Zhao Changhe, but he cannot hide in the Ancestral Temple in the capital like Xia Longyuan because he has too many things to do.

"You...disguise yourself when you should, and don't show off." Tang Wanzhuang finally stood up, walked to the opposite side of the coffee table, gently leaned into Zhao Changhe's arms, and kissed her: "I will love you. Please assist Your Majesty together, and when you come back, you will see the most prosperous and stable rear area."

Zhao Changhe hugged her and joked: "Are you sure you and Qing'er are not tit-for-tat?"

Tang Wanzhuang's eyes were full of charm: "I have been fighting with her for fifteen years... Now it seems that the fight in the first half of my life is just a preview of the second half of my life, and we will continue to fight for the rest of my life..."

As he spoke, he slowly whispered in Zhao Changhe's ear: "Remember to come back safely. Then... Wan Zhuang and her... will fight on the bed for you to watch."

This sentence is more effective than any warm reminder of "pay attention to safety". Zhao Changhe dares to swear that even if the law of heaven comes in person, he will chop him under the horse with a knife and crawl back to the capital!

…………

Leaving Beijing on the same day.

As Xia Chichi said, these days may seem ridiculous, but they are actually an important internal stabilization process and are indispensable. But when things are done, I can no longer indulge in the gentle land and try all kinds of permutations and combinations...

The current situation is actually extremely urgent, and there is no chance of being a fool.

The temptation of Tang Dynasty makeup is actually looking forward to the day when the world will be settled. At that time, I will be happy to accompany you no matter how absurd.

Sanniang had already left in advance and went to Huangshaji, where she had been the "collector leader" for a while and had become boring.

Although he didn't serve as the leader for long, things were different. That was indeed the base outside the Great Wall of the Four Symbols Sect, with elite members presiding over it. The situation was relatively clear, and there was also a mobile force that could be used. Once Xuanwu returns, it will be a storm for those outside the Great Wall.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, she is really an unfathomable big devil.

And Zhao Changhe transformed into the yellow-faced man he often wore in the early days, and walked straight to Qinghe astride Wu Zui.

Wu Zhui can fly, but he doesn't dare to fly. This is the most tragic thing nowadays... because it is too eye-catching. Now that I have quietly left the capital for a while, no one knows about it. Once my horse is flying around and falls into the eyes of the evil gods and demons, it will be the same as saying "shoot at me" openly.

In order to achieve the goal of competing with Suzaku in evening makeup in the future, we still need to be cautious.

Qinghe is only 700 miles away from the capital, and there are no mountains or mountains to hinder it. Zhao Changhe was used to observing the scenery along the way, but this time he really felt the tension in the atmosphere in Hebei.

When I went to Beijing earlier, the section from Qinghe to the capital was a prosperous place at the foot of the emperor. Although there were also homeless and beggars, business travelers were flowing along the way, and there were many inns and resting places at almost every other section. But this time I found many inns deserted and desolate along the way.

Passing through some towns, people looked in horror, until they saw only one knight and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought it was a war..." In a town wine shop, a bartender at the next table explained to Zhao Changhe: "Brother, you are such a tall horse and galloping around. Not to mention fighting, you are also a messenger..."

Zhao Changhe remained calm: "Why are Hebei and the capital at war?"

"Isn't it already known to everyone? The late emperor was the one who broke the family line, and Qinghe Cui is a vegetarian... The situation has long been tense."

"Qinghe Cui cannot represent the entire Yanzhao realm."

"Absolutely... the late emperor only knew how to manipulate swords, but he didn't know how to do anything else. Over the years, which big family has become divided across states and counties? It may be an exaggeration to say that the entire Zhao land belongs to the Cui family. To say three Two-thirds is not a big problem, the remaining one-third belongs to the Lu family..."

The drinkers at another table joined in the fun: "Hey, you said that King Shura was granted the title of King of Zhao. Does that mean anything?"

"Is this equivalent to sealing the Cui family's territory to King Shura?"

"I think it means something like this, right? Did King Zhao and Miss Cui have an engagement originally? I'm guessing at the current atmosphere..."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

This Prince Zhao was Xia Chichi's emergency plan when Tang Wanzhuang forced her to marry him in public. At that time, she had no time to think about the political meaning of a word, so she just dealt with it randomly with her surname. But as long as someone with a heart can act like this, it seems that it is really convincing, at least it’s hard to say what the Cui family thinks...

There seems to be some other troubles with this mission...

The Wang family, Li family, etc. will not let the Cui family and Zhao Changhe get involved in the engagement again, and they will use every means to destroy it.

if it is like this……

"Sir, the wine is here~" The waiter brought the wine and meat with a smile, and said with a smile: "Sir, you have been waiting for a long time..."

Zhao Changhe looked at the steaming mist on the hot wine in front of him with a half-smile, and whispered to himself: "Every time I go out for a meal, I can encounter stories of poisoning and assassination. I haven't encountered it for a long time. I miss it so much... I didn’t expect that Tingxuelou’s tricks haven’t improved a bit yet, which is really disappointing..."
