Chapter 259: Passing through Anxi
Looking at the dark night sky outside, Bian Lingcheng didn't see half of the "unlimited" look.
But Gu Houye said it so firmly, Bian Lingcheng understood for a long time, and finally found a reason.
Perhaps, poets are all virtuous, especially drunk poets.
After a conversation, Bian Lingcheng finally saw the situation clearly. Like Gao Xianzhi's choice, Gu Qing and the ten thousand soldiers and horses under his command had better not interfere indiscriminately.
Judging from Gu Qing's behavior and rhetoric today, this Hou Ye may not be a person to be messed with, he led people to rob the Wannian County Prison in Chang'an, and after the robbery, he was promoted to an official, and later killed the assassin Shi, and after killing the assassin Shi, he squatted in prison for a month, and after he came out, he was promoted to the deputy envoy of the festival.
Every time he gets into a disaster, he can be promoted once, such a miraculous promotion physique, purely relying on His Majesty's favor and trust in him, Bian Lingcheng is full of courage and does not dare to be a stepping stone for his promotion.
Now that he had stopped thinking about it, Bian Lingcheng suddenly changed his mind.
You can't do it, but you can form an alliance.
"Master Hou, the slave and the maid and the Hou Ye hit it off at first sight, and some words may be a little abrupt, but we are all people with the emperor's grace, and the slave and maid have to say these words......"
Gu Qing smiled: "But it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
Bian Lingcheng said softly: "Master Hou, Your Majesty sent you to Anxi to serve as the deputy envoy of Jiedu, in addition to training your qualifications, your Majesty must have also explained other affairs, right?" Like what...... Contain Gao Xianzhi? ”
Gu Qing raised his eyebrows: "How do you know?" ”
Bian Lingcheng said with a smile: "Today, after Gao Xianzhi saw the holy decree, his face turned pale, and he didn't hide it from Hou Ye, originally Gao Xianzhi learned that the imperial court would send 10,000 soldiers and horses to the four towns of Anxi, and he even thought about how to arrange these 10,000 soldiers and horses, but today he found that Hou Ye's 10,000 soldiers and horses could not be touched, so you can imagine how disappointed he was...... Master Hou, Your Majesty must have sent you to Anxi because he had already taken precautions against Gao Xianzhi, so he sent his most trusted person to Anxi to contain Gao Xianzhi, right? ”
Gu Qing said quietly: "Border Supervision Army, I can't admit these words......"
Bian Ling Chengxi said: "Yes, yes, the slave and maid understand the rules, the slave and the maid are just a personal guess, of course the Hou Ye is just here to practice, and has no other tasks." ”
Gu Qing said slowly: "Containment or something, I don't know what it means, to be honest, as long as my ten thousand soldiers and horses are firmly in my hands, the purpose of containment has been achieved, so I don't have to do anything, Gao Jieshuai can feel the pressure." ”
Bian Lingcheng said tentatively: "If the slave and maid report the matter of the four towns of Anxi to Chang'an, can the Hou Ye be named with the slave and maid?" The slave maid guessed what His Majesty meant, and seemed to want to replace Gao Xianzhi, and maybe even let the Hou Ye replace him. ”
Gu Qing sneered in his heart, but his expression showed disdain: "Border Supervisor, how much have you drunk, are you dizzy?" Anxi, a wild place, what do you want, even if Your Majesty lets me enter Anxi, I don't want to, I just said, I'm just here to mix qualifications, and I'm going to be transferred back to Chang'an in a year and a half, let me be in Anxi, do you want to make me drink the northwest wind in the bitter cold land outside the Saiwai for a lifetime? ”
Bian Lingcheng said with a bitter face: "The slave maid doesn't dare, but the slave maid thinks about it, His Majesty's purpose of sending the marquis to Anxi shouldn't be so simple, right?" ”
Gu Qing said seriously: "I'll make it clearer, I'm here to mess around, don't bother me with these bad things in Anxi, whether it's the war with the outside world, or the bad things between you and Gao Xianzhi, I'm not interested in participating, Border Supervisor, let me stay here for a year and a half with peace of mind, and after I return to Chang'an, I will be good to you and me, do you understand what I mean?" ”
Bian Lingcheng listened to the resolute meaning in Gu Qing's words, and gradually understood that this Hou Ye was really here to mess around.
So Bian Lingcheng couldn't help but sigh in disappointment, originally thought that there was an arm to help the ally, but it turned out to be a gentleman-style Hou Ye, who is eating and drinking, and doesn't mix anything, but he can't afford to offend this person......
The guests and the host are happy, of course, this is Gu Qing's unilateral view that the guests and the host are happy.
Bian Lingcheng said goodbye to the camp in disappointment, Gu Qing sent him out of the tent, and watched his back disappear in Yuanmen with a smile.
Han Jie stepped forward lightly and hesitated: "Master Hou, the purpose of this surname is not pure, why is Master Hou befriending him?" ”
Gu Qing said with a smile: "Compared with those good people who are not honest, it is actually easier to make friends with bad people, the conditions for good people to make friends are too harsh, and people like me can't be looked down on in the eyes of good people." ”
Han Jie said puzzledly: "Hou Ye's daughter, why make these so-called friends? ”
"We came to Anxi, we can't be alone, we always need friends, coming to Anxi does not mean that we have a foothold in Anxi, we need to do a lot of things to make all the generals and officials in the four towns of Anxi know us and are in awe of us, if one day my Gu Qing's name is numb, then we will really gain a foothold in Anxi."
Han Jie was puzzled: "Master Hou, the last general has never understood, what are we going to do when we come to Anxi?" Was it at war with the Western Regions and Tibet? Or do you want to contain Gao Xianzhi? ”
Gu Qing groaned, Han Jie's question must also be the question of the hundred guards around him, and it was okay if others didn't understand, but the most trusted person around him couldn't let them follow him in a daze, he had to let them know what he was doing.
So Gu Qing decided to reveal a little bit of his thoughts appropriately, so that Han Jie and them could follow him with peace of mind.
"Brother Han, what do you think of Gao Xianzhi?" Gu Qing suddenly changed the topic and asked.
Han Jie hesitated for a moment, and said: "It can be regarded as a famous general in the world, his reputation is praised in Chang'an City, and he competed with Xiao Bolu for the Stone Castle, the Stone Kingdom, and the Tu Cavalry, and now the Tang Dynasty has lost more and more foreign battles, but Gao Xianzhi is still quite strong, and he has won enough confidence for the Tang Dynasty." But the battle of Talas was a bit miserable......"
Gu Qing smiled: "Your understanding of Gao Xianzhi is relatively shallow, I don't blame you, after all, you are not familiar with him." But let me tell you, Gao Xianzhi has made a lot of mistakes over the years of running Anxi, and these mistakes are not only military, but also in many aspects...... Do you know the purpose of His Majesty's sending me to Anthy? ”
Han Jie said in a low voice: "Contain Gao Xianzhi." ”
"That's right, containment means that His Majesty has suspicion of him, and the king's suspicion of the courtiers is the foreshadowing of the disaster, Your Majesty's real intention is that he doesn't want Gao Xianzhi to continue to pass through Anxi, transfer him back to Chang'an, and use the high-ranking officials to provide him highly, Mingsheng is really degraded, and I am the one who replaces Gao Xianzhi, the future is not far away, I want to replace him through Anxi."
Han Jie's eyes widened in surprise: "Master Hou will become the lord of the four towns of Anxi?" ”
"Your Majesty may have this plan, but it also depends on whether I can fight or not, if I can't quickly establish my prestige in Anxi in the short term and quickly become a veritable deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, then Your Majesty will also be disappointed in me, Gao Xianzhi will definitely be transferred back to Chang'an, if I can't master Anxi, I will also be transferred back to Chang'an, and Your Majesty will change to a more capable commander to pass through Anxi."
Han Jie said with some excitement: "What does Master Hou mean?" Do you want to be the lord of the four towns of Anzai? ”
Gu Qing looked at him strangely: "Why are you so excited?" Do you think it's a good errand? Anxi has nothing to do in this wild place, to put it mildly, you and your brothers don't have a place to go if they want to play with women......"
Han Jie said excitedly: "There is a place to play with women, don't you ...... The last general means that Hou Ye can not live up to His Majesty's expectations, and must pass through Anxi, if Hou Ye is the lord of Anxi, he is the minister of the pillar stone in the west of the Tang Dynasty, not only holding military power, but also going down in history. The last general and his brothers also have a lot of opportunities to make contributions. ”
Gu Qing said curiously: "There is actually a place to play with women in this shabby place?" Is it a green house? ”
Han Jie was dumbfounded, are we talking about the same thing?
"Well, the last general heard that there is a Qinglou opened by Hu Shang in Qiuzi Town, which is specially used for the pastime of passing caravans, Hou Ye, you know, the caravan is very rich, and it is said that all the Qinglou are Hu women, with green eyes and yellow hair, and they look like ghosts, so Hu Shang likes that tune. Master Hou, you ...... Also have that interest? The last general can be arranged for Hou Ye. ”
Gu Qing snorted and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I have always been as guarded as jade, and Zhang Huaiyu is still waiting for me to go back in Chang'an to marry her." ”
After a pause, Gu Qing said against his will: "Besides, I don't like Hu Nu's tone either, it's too ugly, hmm...... It's ugly. ”
The delicate face of Princess Wanchun's half-breed popped up inexplicably in his mind.
In fact...... It's not ugly, the generation gap of thousands of years is not only values, but also aesthetics that cannot be recognized by each other.
Han Jie smiled and said in a low voice: "If the Hou Ye doesn't like Hu Nu, the last general will also find out that there are camp prostitutes in the garrison camp of Qiuzi Town, and among them are Tang women, although they are ...... Hehe, but she is also a genuine Tang woman, so she will not be skewered, if the Hou Ye has the intention of King Xiang......"
Gu Qing said in surprise: "Camp prostitute? There are actually camp prostitutes in the Anxi garrison? ”
Han Jie said strangely: "It's normal to have camp prostitutes, our Tang Dynasty Wang Shi fought in the south and the north, I don't know how many countries have been destroyed, those barbarian women who have been destroyed can just catch a few as camp prostitutes, the Tang Dynasty has always had this custom, and the above has never blamed, Wang Shi has so many energetic brothers in the robes, always have to, uh, always have to vent, if you don't vent for a long time, it is easy to have an accident......"
"What's going on with the Tang woman in that camp prostitute?"
"Most of the women in the Tang Dynasty are the daughters of criminal officials, and they are assigned to the garrison as camp prostitutes, and those with better appearance are sold to the Qinglou, and those with poor appearance can only stay in the camp......"
Gu Qing pursed her lips.
Some are disgusted by this way, but he will not break the rules like the Virgin, so he can only act as if he didn't hear it.
"Have you ever been there?" Gu Qing suddenly asked.
Han Jie smiled: "I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it yet, when the Hou Ye settles down, I plan to take a few brothers to see it when the general changes shifts......"
Gu Qing said with disdain: "You people really don't have any concept of chastity at all. ”
"Master Hou, the last man will be a man, and he is not a chaste martyr, what kind of chastity do you want? Does Master Hou have chastity? ”
Gu Qing suddenly became angry.
Immortal Banbaner, Lao Tzu really has chastity, he has not used it in two lifetimes, he is in good condition, and the pulp is thick.
