Luoyang, the backyard of the Imperial History Mansion.

"Good time!"

I only heard Wang Li shout angrily, and a cold light was like a silver snake, bringing up a storm and snow in the sky, sweeping in. The long sword in his hand was unsheathed, as fast as the wind, as cold as ice, and a sword was lit on the tip of the bright silver spear.

"Ding!" A crisp sound broke through the air, the sword body bent slightly, Wang Li took advantage of the momentum to turn over and jump, and then the sword was lit on the bright silver spear, like a big peng spreading its wings, and his feet kicked Zhao Yun's chest sharply.

Zhao Yun let out a long roar, held the bright silver spear with one hand and thrust it into the ground, the tip of the spear was three or five inches deep into the ground. A partridge spun under his feet, and he flew five or six feet.

There was a "bang, bang, bang", and the two of them fell to the ground, looked up and laughed, and startled the snow on the trees to fly down like flocculents.

"Wonderful, wonderful!"

Wang Yun and the others applauded and shouted: "After watching this duel, the old man believes that Qiji is not a donkey and a donkey, and Luan Feng is not in the same group as a bird. Zilong is young and ambitious, brave but elegant, and even more courageous and martial arts, which are different from ordinary people, even the old man began to be jealous. ”

Zhao Yun hurriedly put away the bright silver spear, clasped his fists with both hands and said: "Lord Yushi has praised it falsely, Yun is just a cloth cloth, how can he get his brother to be chivalrous and brave, both civil and military?" ”

Wang Li shook his head and said with a smile, "Zilong, people often say: the white head is as new, and the cover is as old as before." Although Li and Zilong have only known each other for ten months, they have been friends for many years, yes is yes, no is wrong, since the second uncle praises you, naturally you have something to do, why do you have to pull the foolish brother to cushion your back? ”

Wang Li put his long sword into the sheath, and was about to greet Wang Yun, Wang Chen, and Wang Gai, but saw Steward Wang roll in from the gate of the second courtyard, but kept shouting: "Madame has arrived at the Pingcheng Gate!" ”

Grandma has finally arrived!

Wang Li was overjoyed, hurriedly bowed to Wang Yun and the others, pulled Zhao Yun and ran out, and as soon as he slipped away, he saw two horses rushing straight towards the Pingcheng Gate.

……

The snow fell heavily for three or five days, and finally stopped before the evening of Chinese New Year's Eve.

The streets of Luoyang City have already begun to be cleaned, whether they are poor or rich, or officials and scholars, they either stand on the street with their waists crossed and instruct the servants at home to clean the frost and snow in front of the door, or go into battle in person.

The snow piles were pushed to both sides of the gate, and people began to hang peach charms on the door again, and the peach charms were also called "peach stalks", which were made of two peach wood boards one inch wide and seven or eight inches long, and two statues of gods were carved on both sides, the left god and the right Yu Lei.

There are also seven or eight groups of children playing with snowballs on the street, or raising the bamboo knots in their hands and throwing them into the fire, listening to the sound of the bamboo "crackling" in the fire, and dancing with their hands.

In the distance, I don't know who made the firecrackers, it seems to have shown the prototype of fireworks, with a loud bang, the firecrackers with a long tail, flew into the air, and swirled in the air, "Bang!" The sound of scattering exploded.

"In the sound of firecrackers, the spring breeze sends warmth into Tusu."

The firecrackers finally sounded, but instead of a spring breeze, it was a boundless cold wind, carrying falling leaves.

A pair of couplets were pasted outside the gate of the Imperial History Mansion, with black and red characters on red paper, and iron and silver hooks. Wang Yun, Zhao Yun and others stood outside the mansion and carefully admired the thing called "couplet", and admired it from time to time, attracting sideways glances from passers-by.

Of course, the couplet was written by Wang Li, Wang Li just manipulated it according to the customs of his previous life, but he never noticed that the couplet in this era had not yet appeared, and inadvertently made the couplet appear hundreds of years in advance.

Wang Yun, Zhao Yun and others and even Wang Jiashi were quite curious about this matter, and they nodded their heads one by one, and they agreed. Under the influence of everyone, Wang Li had to hastily eat the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner with everyone and wrote the first couplet in Chinese history:

New Year's Day, Jiajie Changchun.

Wang Li and Zhao Yun stood together, looking at the first couplet written by their own hands, but they did not feel proud, but intuitively felt that this winter was unusually cold, the red paper and black characters on the lintel pierced the eyes, the paper was red like blood, the words were like swords, and even a little bit of blood could be smelled.

The new year is the year of Jiazi, the first year of Zhongping in the seventh year of Emperor Guanghe of Han Ling, this year will be a long war, wolf smoke everywhere, this year will be bloody, corpses and bones will become a mountain, and the rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty are crumbling.

Is the New Year really celebrated? Will the Jiajie really be called Changchun?

Listening to the cheers in his ears and looking at the firecrackers in the air, Wang Li's heart sank little by little.

Zhao Yun approached Wang Li, touched him, and whispered, "Brother, Huzi has something to tell you." ”

"Huzi, what's the matter?" Wang Li came back to his senses and saw Zhao Hu standing aside, his expression contradictory and solemn.

"Your Excellency!" Zhao Hu arched his hand and stammered a little, "When I followed the old lady into Beijing a few days ago, I found me teaching in the suburbs of Luoyang... Tang Ke, the master of the mountain gate of Taiping Road, brought four or five people into Beijing. ”

"Are you sure?"

Zhao Hu nodded, and said affirmatively: "At that time, Zai Xia and all the brothers were guarding the old lady's car, and the group was all dressed in white and white felt, only showing their foreheads and eyes, but they had seen him in Yecheng when they were in the sect, so they dared to conclude that the leader was Tang Ke." ”

Tang Ke really entered Beijing!

Wang Li was shocked in his heart, glanced at Zhao Yun, and involuntarily glanced north, the northern courtyard was heavy, the fang market was staggered, and he couldn't see anything.

But the two of them knew very well in their hearts that Tang Ke would definitely make a move to enter Beijing while the snow was going to be there, and the people who contacted him would definitely not be able to escape Tang Qianqian, Feng Zhen and others.

Wang Li was still lamenting that the blood flowed like a river in the year of Jiazi, and in a blink of an eye, he got the news that Tang Ke had entered Beijing, and he couldn't help but sigh for a while, after all, he still had to become the pioneer of the Taiping Road.

sighed, but saw that Zhao Hu was still struggling in front of him, and hurriedly asked, "Huzi, what else is the matter?" ”

Zhao Hu rubbed his hands, his face gradually turned red, and he said: "My lord, I am afraid that I will delay the adult's major event, and I ask the adult to punish you."

In addition, Qian Yi and Lu Qin asked their subordinates to tell the adults that Jun County, Liyang, Huaxian and Wei counties were indeed as expected by the adults, and there were many refugees and foot merchants, and they had blocked them outside Wei County according to the instructions of the adults, and after holding each other for more than ten days, those refugees and foot merchants had gone straight from Yangping County to Julu. ”

It's getting more and more interesting, Yecheng, the place where the first anti-flag of the Yellow Turban Uprising was pulled up in history, finally under the instigation of Wang Li's butterfly, the connection between it and Taiping Road was broken, and it was no longer so obvious.

The butterflies trembling by the Amazon River and the storm have begun to spread to Dahan!

Wang Li looked at Zhao Hu with a nervous expression, patted Zhao Hu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Huzi, I can understand this, I can't blame you. However, I have always been extremely strict in governing the army, and my merits will be rewarded and those who pass must be punished. You should be rewarded for providing Tang Ke information, and you should be punished for delaying the military situation. In this way, this time it should be offset by the merits and demerits, and the next is not an example! ”

"No, thank you, my subordinates are retiring!"

Wang Li waved his hand and looked at the sky, which was gradually darkening. Although it was Chinese New Year's Eve, after all, the snow had just stopped, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and even the children who set off firecrackers on the street went home to keep vigil, and then nodded to Zhao Yun, Zhao Yun naturally understood, and the two took advantage of the night to quietly drown in the darkness.

Feng Zhen Mansion, the two of them are also familiar with the road, quietly touched the roof of the main hall, gently uncovered the tiles, and a beam of fire shone on the faces of the two through the hole.

The two of them looked towards the room, and sure enough, there were five people sitting in the main hall, and Feng Yu and the Tang Ke were among them. The main hall gate was closed, and there were two groups of soldiers lined up outside the door, solemn and majestic.

Feng Yu was in the right position, and Tang Ke and the other four were divided into two columns. Tang Ke sat on the top left, and at the bottom was a man with a long scar on his face. Opposite Tang Ke also sat a middle-aged man with a full beard, and under the big man was a white-faced, beardless, slightly fat man, and behind the beard hung a hat, on which a little water still dropped.

Obviously, not long after the beard arrived, Tang Ke and the others may not have officially started the interview. Wang Li and the two glanced at each other, unconsciously excited, and calmed down and listened carefully to everyone's conversation.

Sure enough, I saw Tang Ke arching his hand towards Feng Zhen and Bai Yan Wuxu, and said: "Lord Feng, Lord Xu, although the guest is dull, he also knows the difficulties of the two adults. The guest is just the master of this sect, you don't believe in the guarantee of the master of this sect, and the master of this sect has nothing to say.

However, today we have the privilege of inviting my divine envoy here, the divine envoy is the special envoy of the sect leader, and every word and deed represents the sect leader. ”

The beard nodded and said, "What the Tang Sect Master said is right, if the two adults have any requirements, they can just ask the envoy." ”

It turned out that person was the divine envoy of Taiping Dao and the envoy of Zhang Jiao.

Wang Li looked at the man, and saw that the divine envoy's eyes were blazing, and his beard was as hard as a steel needle, but he was shocked in his mind. This title seems to have been mentioned by the master in his previous life, this person seems to be surnamed Ma or Niu?

It's just that he didn't expect that there would be today's situation at that time, because he didn't deliberately remember this name, and he couldn't remember it in his mind anyway, Wang Li shook his head and dispelled the distracting thoughts in his mind.

But seeing that Feng Zhen had already stood up, he continued: "Master Tang, our family and Brother Xu are in the palace, how dare you forget the things of Chen Fan and Dou Wu back then?" It's not that we can't trust you, but this matter is really important.

Since our family and Brother Xu have decided to fully assist you and others, if we don't arrange the back road, without the commitment of your sect leader, once the matter is leaked, won't our family be inviting disaster to our family? ”

The divine envoy shook his head and said, "Yes, I want to seek my life in advance." Since the two of you have decided to join the peace, fight against the tyrants, and maintain the righteousness of heaven and earth, the current sect leader has promised you that the two of you will go all out to ask this sect.

If you have any thoughts, please don't deny it, just say it. If the envoy can't do it, the envoy will submit it to the sect leader, and the sect leader will decide it himself! ”

Feng Yu paused, glanced at the man surnamed Xu, sighed and said, "Since this is the case, our family will also say it directly."

Since the pre-Qin period, the emperor of the pre-Qin Dynasty (lào ǎi) entered the palace under the guise of a eunuch and had an affair with the Empress Dowager Zhao Ji of the pre-Qin Dynasty, the emperors of the pre-Qin and the former Han Dynasty gradually strengthened their control over our eunuchs in order to prevent the eunuchs from confusing the palace again.

And I am Emperor Guangwu and regain the capital of the Han Dynasty, and the eunuchs must be castrated before they can enter the palace. Our family and Brother Xu were poor and couldn't afford to support them, so both of us were sent to the palace to become wastes.

Since ancient times, unfilial piety has been great. At the beginning, the two of us also planned to inherit the mantle of our family by a son from each brother, to provide for the elderly, and to sacrifice incense.

It wasn't until later that the two of us happened to meet the master of the Tang Sect, and I heard that the master of the Tang Sect had a secret method that could make us reinvigorate the male style, and this was what the two of us saw with our own eyes, and I was sure that it was true. Therefore, the first article of the two of us is to hope that the master of the Tang Sect can spare no effort and rejuvenate himself! ”

The Tang Ke glanced at the divine envoy, nodded without hesitation, and said categorically: "The two adults are the pillars of the country, the backbone of the sect, and they will not hesitate to do this for the cause of the sect, how can Tang make the hero have no queen?"

Although the two adults can rest assured, this matter will be handed over to Tang. Three or five months at the earliest, or two or three years at the latest, Tang will definitely let the two adults get what they want! ”

Eunuchs are castrated people, this can also revive the male majesty? And it was the Feng Zhen and the man surnamed Xu who saw it with their own eyes? Isn't this Tang Ke's medical skills better than Hua Tuo, and he has reached the realm of heaven?

Isn't that a joke!
