Chapter 106: The Current Situation

A huge city, like a huge beast, creeping in the north of the center of Li Tang. The layout of the city is square and dignified, consisting of the outer city, the imperial city, the palace city, the fang market, etc. The streets of the city are straight and wide, bustling with people, and the buildings along the streets are lined up one after another. The city is as large as the majestic palaces, gardens, markets, temples, as small as the gates, courtyards, gardens, and even bricks and grasses, all of which seem to reveal the kind of domineering spirit.

This is Chang'an, the capital of Li Tang.

Hearing that Chang'an is like a game of chess, the world is sad for a hundred years.

The princes and princes are all new owners, and the civil and military clothes are different from the past.

Zhibei Guanshan Golden Drum Zhen, Expedition West Che Ma Yu Book Chi.

The fish and dragon are lonely and the autumn river is cold, and the old country lives in peace.

......

Among the many courtyards in Chang'an, there is an inconspicuous courtyard, at this moment a delicate face, elegant temperament but full of haggard face of a girl leaning on the railing of the cloister in the courtyard, looking at the stars in the sky, slowly reciting a rather desolate poem. Between the words, he was full of worries about Li Tang's current situation.

"Miss," a slightly hoarse voice interrupted the rather sad chanting, and the woman turned to look in the direction from which the voice had come.

A burly man with a strange stride gradually walked into the light from a distance, it was Li Qianmo's personal soldier Li Fu, who had fought side by side with Xiaochuan in the Xinghai Grassland.

And the girl on the corridor is naturally the light ink who returned to Chang'an from the Xinghai grassland.

In the battle of Xinghai Grassland, the Northern Army suffered heavy losses, and Tao Xuancun and several generals were escorted back to Chang'an and put in prison on charges of ineffective combat.

Li Qianmo was not imprisoned under the guarantee of his master Li Chengqi, but was placed under house arrest here. Li Fu survived the battle, but in that battle, he broke his hands and feet in order to protect Qianmo, although it took a year, but he still has not fully recovered, so he was left here to take care of Qianmo.

"The food is ready," Li Fu said.

After experiencing this incident, he has become a lot less talkative, but his loyalty to protect Qianmo has not changed.

"Did the master ever send a letter?" Li Qianmo didn't seem to have any interest in eating, she turned her head and continued to look at the sky, and asked after a long time.

"No letter came from the general. Li Fu reported truthfully.

"But the other three generals from the border have also entered the city?" asked Qianmo then.

"Yes, the villain went to the street to buy today, and he has already communicated with that person", Li Fu lowered his voice, took two steps forward and said to Li Qianmo, "Zhenxi General Bai Yuebai, Zhendong General Xiao Zhang, and Zhennan General Hu Yanlie have all returned to Chang'an as ordered. ”

"Even Xiao Zhang has been called back, how can I, Li Tang and the Eastern Jin Dynasty, have been fighting for many years, and there is no one to guard them...... The four major generals of the empire, one person was imprisoned, and the other three withdrew, what the hell is this faint monarch thinking!"

Li Qianmo's willow eyebrows were upside down, and his pretty face, which was originally a little haggard and melancholy, was suddenly full of anger.

"Miss be cautious!" Li Fu looked around a little flustered when he heard this, and hurriedly dissuaded. Right now, she is under house arrest, and there are generals around her, so there is no one else watching in secret.

When Li Qianmo heard this, he sat down again and was silent.

"Miss, I guess you know. Now among the four border generals of the empire, Tao Xuancun, the general of Zhenbei, Bai Yuebai, the general of Zhenxi, and Xiao Zhang, the general of Zhendong, are all imperial generals who have been supported and trained by our old man Li, and now they are in charge of the military outside, how can the villains in the court let go of such an opportunity?" Li Fudao.

"Do you want to bring down my master on the charge of dictatorship and personal friendship with the border general?" Li Qianmo sneered, "The battle above the court has been going on for a long time, my master is the founding general of Li Tang, the elder of the three dynasties, just relying on this group of clowns?"

"Miss, although the old man is highly respected, and even the current saints respect him very much, but isn't this a double-edged sword? Li Fu sighed.

Li Qianmo fell silent again, how could she not understand Li Fuzhi's words, she just wanted to comfort herself.

"In the past year, I heard that His Majesty rarely takes charge of the government, have you ever understood the reason?" Li Qianmo suddenly asked Li Fu.

Li Fu was a little embarrassed, "Miss is in such a situation now, there are many former friends who have broken off, villain, villain now has no credible sources, I heard that some people say that His Majesty is sick, and some people say that Nan Chujin sacrificed a beauty to make His Majesty not think about the government, and some people say that His Majesty is accused by others and is already a puppet ......"

"Xiao Xiao's words!" Li Qianmo said.

However, recalling what His Majesty had done during the year, Li Qianmo was a little shaken by Li Fu's words.

From the beginning of the Great War in the Xinghai Grassland, the current saint has made a lot of tricks. The Northern Army returned with a tragic victory, and the commander was imprisoned; the war with the Eastern Jin Dynasty won fewer and lost more under the intervention of the DPRK and China, and in the later period, Xiao Zhang, the general of the Eastern Expedition who was second only to Li Chengqi in prestige and cultivation in the army, hung up the battle exemption card and could not hold out, and allowed the soldiers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to show off their might and slaughter the people of Li Tang on the border, and Li Tang's majesty was swept away, and Xiao Zhang was simply recalled this time; moreover, in the past year, the taxes and forced labor of the people have increased substantially, and useless palaces and temples have been built all over the country......

Li Qianmo counted them one by one, and this is simply enough to make up all the scenes of the dead country!

Alas, what exactly has happened in this year...... Li Qianmo sighed.

"Bell," "Light ink can be?" A slight knock on the door was followed by a crisp and pleasant female voice.

Li Qianmo and Li Fu were both stunned, since Qianmo was placed under house arrest so far, very few people have visited here, and the friends and robes that they had before were so blank and powerless in the face of power and responsibility.

However, Li Qianmo instantly swept away her decadence, "It's Sister Yaoqin!" she jumped up excitedly and ran to open the door.

The person who came was Leng Yaoqin, who had a relationship with Zuo Xiaochuan and Hun Mengmeng in Luming Mountain and rescued the two of them. She and Li Qianmo are rare close friends.

"Sister Yaoqin, you haven't come to see me for a few days. In front of Leng Yaoqin, Li Qianmo's melancholy dissipated, and she took Leng Yaoqin's hand and entered the house with a happy face.

Leng Yaoqin is three years older than Li Qianmo, the two have known each other since childhood, often practice and play together, and have been friends with each other for a long time. Since Qianmo joined the army, it has almost been difficult for the two to get together, but Li Qianmo was placed under house arrest a year ago, and Leng Yaoqin came to visit many times regardless of the words of the outside world.

"Sister, tell me about the outside. Before he could sit down, Li Qianmo couldn't wait to ask Leng Yaoqin.

The Fu Demon Division is a special department of Li Tang, in charge of a variety of secret affairs of the empire, although this is more related to some strong cultivators, but there is no lack of supervision of the people in the court, so they can obtain a lot of things that outsiders do not know.

"What, you're thinking about the big things in the DPRK again?" Leng Yao said.

"A lot of great things have happened during this time, and the Demon Division is also extremely busy, so I have been seeing you for so long. Leng Yaoqin and Li Qianmo sat opposite each other, and the two started talking.

"I heard that except for the general of Zhenbei, the other three generals have also been recalled by His Majesty?" asked Li Qianmo straight to the point.

"Not bad", Leng Yaoqin raised his eyebrows, not wanting her to be so well-informed.

"Why?"

"The DPRK and China believed that several generals were working hard to defend the border passes, so they temporarily returned to Chang'an to repair. Leng Yaoqin hesitated for a moment and said.

"Who is the middle of the court?" said Li Qianmo angrily.

"Opposite your master, the civil officials led by Shang Shuyan Suichu of the Ministry of War", Leng Yaoqin hesitated for a moment, "and that Wang Zhenfan, who is deeply favored by His Majesty." ”

"Wang Zhenfan, just a eunuch! When will it be his turn to express his opinion on the affairs of the court!" Li Qianmo couldn't help but be furious when he heard this.

"He's not just a eunuch," Leng Yaoqin sighed, "My little ink girl, don't you know your ...... Our Majesty's love for this Lord?"

"Do you know that now the left and right guards of Chang'an belong to his commander. Leng Yaoqin said.

"What!" Li Qianmo almost jumped up, "That's the last line of defense to guard the safety of the palace!

"What happened to General Zhou, who was originally in charge of the left and right guards?" she then asked.

"On Wednesday, General Jin has returned to his hometown today. Leng Yaoqing lowered her head, she was also sighing because of this matter today.

"Bastard!" Li Qianmo didn't expect Leng Yaoqin to bring such infuriating news today, and her previous joy had long been swept away.

"Not only the left and right Xiaowei, but even the belonging of the Long Wu Army has changed now. Leng Yaoqin said.

"It's difficult, can it be ......" Li Qianmo thought of a possibility, and she couldn't suppress her fear.

"The crown prince's dragon army has now been handed over to the second prince. ”

"This, big ...... The Prince's Long Wu Army was also handed over to Li Minghan? Didn't His Majesty already hand over the Shence Army to him a few days ago!" Li Qianmo lay on the table a little weakly, what are Wang Zhenfan and Li Minghan going to do?

"Why has Your Majesty done so many ridiculous things in the past year, what is he thinking?" asked Li Qianmo with some anger.

"You have been away from Chang'an for a long time, and you don't know many things. Moreover, and my eldest brother has also instructed that it is better not to tell you at this time. Leng Yaoqin's eyes were a little evasive, and he stopped talking.

"Say!" Li Qianmo suddenly hardened, "There is nothing I shouldn't know." ”

"About a year ago, His Majesty got a strange disease, but he was getting weaker and weaker, and the imperial doctor in the palace couldn't find out the reason, and since then, he has rarely gone to court. ”

"Why don't I know such a big deal?" Li Qianmo jumped up in surprise.

"No, I'm going to enter the palace!" she panicked instantly, pacing back and forth on the ground.

"Qianmo, calm down! The current situation is extremely complicated, and it is no longer what it was when you first left!" Leng Yaoqin said this sentence almost through gritted teeth.

"By the way, the prince, what about the prince? Even if His Majesty is in poor health, but the prince is benevolent and generous and good at managing government affairs, and he will not come to this point in Li Tang!" Li Qianmo's eyes lit up, as if he saw hope.

"Prince, he can't protect himself now...... Now in the court, only your master is standing behind him. ”

Li Qianmo's feet were weak when he heard this, and he almost sat on the ground.
