From the beginning of the decision to migrate, Muba said that this was an adventure, if the Tang people did not admit it, only one defeat, and the tribe that lost all their belongings would all die in this winter, and the cold wind and hunger would end them without the Tang people's action.

So when the attitude of the Tang army's rangers was not right, he was on guard and began to distribute dry rations.

The long-haired man returned to his side, "Tang people are not right! That Jia Baoyu is a liar! ”

"I knew it, I knew ......"

A man muttered on the side, and Mu Ba slapped his backhand and shouted: "In the face of tigers and wolves, we can only have life if we calm down." Stop your nagging! ”

Ahead, a road suddenly cracked in the Tang army's formation, and a horse came slowly.

The long-haired man squinted, and the corners of his mouth gradually curled, "It's him!" It's that Jia Baoyu, he really didn't lie to us! ”

Happiness came too quickly, Mu Ba felt that the rhythm of his heartbeat was a little chaotic, and he took a deep breath while clutching his chest, "Go and see." ”

The long-haired man rode his horse and rushed out, Muba stared at him and muttered, "Hope is good news, hope is good news......

Jia Ping'an had already seen the long-haired man, he got off the horse and walked, and the same was true for the long-haired man.

The two approached, hugging each other like a couple reunited after a long absence.

Woohoo!

The long-haired man patted Jia Ping'an's shoulder hard, "Baoyu, you're so good!" ”

Baoyu ...... Jia Ping'an's head was full of black lines, "My brother, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

After the greetings, Jia Ping'an beckoned, "Come along!" ”

He mounted his horse and led the way in front, followed by thousands of Turks, followed by countless cattle and sheep and carts.

Qiu Lin stood at the head of the city and said happily: "There are tribes who have come to submit and ask." ”

Someone has already come.

"Qiu Changshi, the commander ordered to prepare a place for them to camp on the edge of the city, and then prepare some food to send to them."

Qiu Lin happily followed and asked, "Which tribe is it?" Why vote? ”

The visitor said, "It's a Turk." ”

Bang!

Qiu Lin slapped his head, "It's so dangerous!" ”

"But no, Uncle Wu Yang persuaded them with more than ten people, and today they came to the Tang Dynasty, and they all said that they would be sent to Mo Nan when they turned back."

"Who?" Qiu Lin asked in a gaffe.

At this moment, he had already arrived outside the city gate, and the person who came said, "Uncle Wuyang." ”

Qiu Lin looked up and saw Jia Ping'an riding a horse in front of him, and there was a lot of pressure behind him......

Jia Ping'an smiled at him, with indescribable contempt.

……

Spring is blooming, and there are a lot more pedestrians in Chang'an City.

The East Market is surrounded by many dignitaries and nobles, and it stands to reason that business should be better than that of the West Market, but it is not.

The first emperor had an order that more than five grades were not allowed to enter the market; If there are more than five products, it is not allowed to pass the market.

With these rules, the East Market is worse than the West Market.

The West Market is not only the most prosperous, but also a gathering place for foreign merchants.

The situation here is complicated, and the security is also a headache.

Spring is on, business is gradually returning to normal, and merchants resort to various means to overwhelm their opponents. There are often conflicts for this reason.

A few days ago, there was an incident in the West Market, someone raised a knife to chase and cut down foreign merchants, causing chaos in the market.

Chang'an County asked for help from the hundred horsemen in time.

"Bao Dong take some brothers."

Cheng Da's assignment was impeccable, but Ming Jing rolled her eyes.

"After Wu Yangbo left, Qianniuwei came up and rushed to protect His Majesty. The criminal department is also doing things with us, and we have suffered losses and retreated in several conflicts, Lao Cheng, your temporary commander is too soft! ”

Cheng Da said lightly: "What can I do?" Wang Qi and others in the Criminal Department relied on the eldest grandson Xianggong to support them behind them, and several conflicts created out of nothing, so that we suffered losses, if it was a hard top, the loss would be even greater. You think I don't want to? Can ......"

"But what?" Ming Jing made a straight face, "Wu Yangbo is also self-made, step by step, in a word, it is reckless!" ”

……

Bao Dong took people to Xishi and met with people from Chang'an County.

Cao Yingying sighed when he saw him, "The poor brother was driven to Mobei, and I don't know when and what month he will return." ”

Bao Dong and the others also looked gloomy.

"After Wu Yangbo left, the hundred horses gradually sank."

The people on both sides met and immediately began to patrol.

"Recently, a Silla merchant and Hu merchant fought, and the Silla merchant is ready to make a move." Cao Yingying said proudly: "A merchant came to Chang'an County to report that the Silla merchant was going to set fire to Hu Shang's shop tonight. ”

Bao Dong gasped, "Once this fires, the adjacent ...... Not only that, I'm afraid that it will be connected and out of control. ”

Cao Yingying nodded, "So I'm going to ambush, but I'm afraid that things will be discordant, and those throws will make a fuss." Please also ask for some manpower. ”

Bao Dong nodded, "That's fine." ”

In the evening, Bao Dong and others and people from Chang'an County squatted outside the shop.

"They're there to watch."

Zhou Xing doesn't need to care about anything, just follow the ride.

This is Wang Qi's strategy recently: we can't blatantly suppress the hundred horses, we must be smarter, follow secretly, and do what they do to directly sabotage.

The West Market is closed at night, but there are people who stay in the shops, and there are people who live in the West Market.

When the Silla merchant poured oil on the outside of Hu Shang's shop, Bao Dong and Cao Yingying led people to pounce and hold down the Silla merchant.

"Arson?"

Just when Cao Yingying was full of joy, a joyful voice came, "My criminal department has long been aware of this matter, and I am going to take someone tonight, but I didn't expect you to follow us and take advantage." ”

Zhou Xing was a little regretful, because this matter could not be destroyed, so he could only be disgusted and ridden.

"Cheap dog slave, shameless!"

The people of the hundred horsemen couldn't help but scold.

Zhou Xing swung his chin, and naturally someone came out to scold.

The anger of both sides gradually came up, and a hundred horses slapped away.

Syllable!

A scuffle ensued, and the criminal department seriously injured two people, which was the result of the hundred horsemen leaving their hands.

But the next day, the situation changed abruptly.

A chamberlain came.

"Who injured the people in the criminal department last night?"

Yang Dashu raised his hand.

The chamberlain nodded, "The ministers in the court are very angry, saying that the hundred horsemen are now more and more degenerate, not to mention stealing merit, and seriously injuring the officials of the criminal department." ”

Bao Dong's eyes widened, "That's the person we got it." It was they who provoked first! ”

The chamberlain took a deep breath, "Some people said that they should be severely punished, but Your Majesty stopped it, but you have to go anyway." ”

Yang Dashu followed, and then there was no more news.

"It's in the prison of the Criminal Department."

Ming Jing was angered by this news, "Cheng Da, you have to be shameless, since you are this official, you have to make decisions for your brothers." If you can't, then someone else will do it. ”

Cheng Datie went out with a blue face, and when he came back, he looked like he had been hit by a violent storm, and his face was colorless.

"How?"

Ming Jing was a little unbearable, but thinking of the current situation of Baiqi, he felt that he should return to the Taoist temple.

Cheng Da lowered his head, "After Gao Xianggong went at the end of last year, those people in the court became more and more powerful, and His Majesty seemed to be concentrating on something. ”

"That'......" Mingjing shut up.

The emperor is doing great things, and the hundred horsemen are killing if they add chaos at this time.

She said disheartenedly: "Then I might as well go back to the palace." ”

……

In the palace.

"Auntie!"

Li Hong, who was hugged by Zhou Shanxiang, was shouting.

Wu Mei stood outside, bathed in the sun, slowly turned around, and said with a smile: "What do you want from Gorou?" ”

Li Hong pulled his throat and only knew how to call A-Niang.

Zhou Shanxiang smiled: "I'm afraid I'm hungry." ”

Shao Peng said: "I just ate it." ”

Wu Mei raised her head, "Poor lady." ”

Wu Meicai gave birth to a daughter, but she died.

A chamberlain came in a hurry and said, "Your Majesty is here." ”

Wu Mei said lightly: "Prepare some food." ”

Later, Li Zhi came surrounded by a crowd, first hugged Li Hong and teased him, and then sat down and sighed: "I've been very busy lately, and you've just recovered from your sadness, I'm thinking, why don't you go out of the city for a walk?" ”

Wu Mei naturally doesn't care.

When Concubine Xiao got the news, she sent someone to investigate, but she got bad news.

"Your Majesty just brought Wu Zhaoyi over there."

"Slut!"

Concubine Xiao Shu was furious.

But she immediately smiled, "What about the queen?" ”

Queen Wang sat in the dormitory, and Mu Ran said, "Who is going?" ”

Cai Yan said in a low voice: "Wu Mei." ”

"Your Majesty...... Is this disgusted with me? ”

Queen Wang frowned, "I invited my uncle to come." ”

Liu Zheng was then summoned to the palace.

Along the way, the waiter's attitude towards him was quite cold, which made Liu Zheng secretly frightened.

Isn't the queen good?

When she saw the queen, although Queen Wang cheered up, Liu Zheng still found something wrong, such as the queen's hairline was getting higher and higher, and the fat powder on her face was used more, as if she was hiding something.

"Uncle, can you talk about the front dynasty and the back position?"

Liu Zheng only felt that the five thunders hit the top, and he was stunned for a moment, and immediately beat his spirit, "There is no such discussion." The queen mother is the world, and she has not lost her morality, why do you ask this? ”

Don't say you've fallen out of favor!

The queen looked at him and said with a miserable smile: "Now...... The Emperor became more and more cold. ”

……

The scenery outside Chang'an City soothes the pain of Wu Mei's eldest daughter's early death, and Li Zhi is also brewing something.

After returning to Chang'an again, the weather was a little hot.

Li Zhi came back from the court once, his face was gloomy, and he went straight to find Wu Mei.

—————

"Chu Suiliang refuted my meaning."

Wu Mei smiled: "But out of public interest? ”

Li Zhi shook his head, "It's just that I subconsciously want to suppress me." Uncle doesn't speak......"

He squinted, "At this moment, I only have a few people in the court who can be used. Gao Jifu went, leaving one Li Tao, and Yu Zhining was useless. But Li Tao ......"

He glanced at Wu Mei.

Wu Mei said lightly: "Li Mingzhe's ability to protect himself is also eighty or ninety percent with Wei Guogong, but he still has the heart to make contributions, otherwise he will definitely let his grandson Li Jingye leave Qianniuwei under the pretext of leaving Qianniuwei." ”

"Li Jingye ......"

Li Zhi thought of Li Jingye's bravery.

"Li Yifu can be used." Wu Mei remembered that person, "This is a villain, but he is talented." Villains are available. ”

The villain can be used or discarded at any time...... This woman is really my good helper!

Li Zhi handed the child to Zhou Shanxiang, and waited for her to leave before saying, "There is also Cui Dunli who can also borrow it." ”

Wu Mei was stunned, but immediately understood, and lowered her head slightly, but her eyes flashed with brilliance.

Cui Dunli was born in Boling Cui, although he has teamed up with the eldest grandson Wuji and others from time to time, but he is the Cui family after all.

If this pattern is not broken, the crown prince Li Zhong will ascend the throne in the future, and the small circle will become the master of the Tang Dynasty, which is intolerable to the Shandong gatekeeper.

So Cui Dunli can be wooed.

Wu Mei raised her head, "Your Majesty is wise." ”

Li Zhi grabbed her hand and chuckled, "Why do you and I say this?" ”

Later, Li Zhi rested here.

On the second day, the queen asked to see the emperor, but was refused.

This is a signal.

……

"Since the grounding, Your Majesty has valued Wu Zhaoyi more and more, and often goes there."

Wei Wushuang felt that this situation was a little weird, "Gong Zheng, won't you abolish the queen?" ”

"Who knows!" Jiang Han also felt that something was wrong, but she thought more, "That time Wu Zhaoyi had a cold face, and it was reported that Her Majesty was gone, and she only forced a smile ......"

This is a woman's means! Unparalleled!

Wei Wushuang wondered, "Since you're dissatisfied, then just ignore it." ”

"Be tactful!" Jiang Han felt that Wei Wushuang's character would suffer a big loss sooner or later, "That's the emperor, not an ordinary person." ”

I don't care who he is!

Wei Wushuang couldn't help but think of that little thief.

When exactly will you be back?

Jiang Han also thought of Jia Ping'an, "Uncle Wuyang is a pity." ”

Soho in Ganye Temple also has less smiling faces, and he is not active in cultivation, and he doesn't like to go around the forbidden garden, and he ...... all day long

A jade hand touched a card, the middle finger touched the card a few times, and then reversed and slapped on the table, with a bang.

"Eight cylinders of self-drawing!"

Soho pushed down the mahjong, and everyone couldn't help but sigh when they saw it.

"It's a mix!"

"It's still stuck in the eight cylinders of self-touching, it's terrible."

"Come, come, all stick."

The three cards covered their faces with notes, and the wind blew through them, which was spectacular.

"Come again!"

Soho's face was lonely and defeated.

When the mahjong was over, she returned to her room and stared blankly at the empty desk.

"No one brings me meat anymore."

Two lines of tears slowly flowed down his face.

……

Yang Dashu felt that he was very unlucky.

When he was young, he followed his father to rob tombs, and later entered the hundred horses, and the craft of tomb robbing had no room to play, but the skill of killing people was not bad.

On the night of the strangulation and rebellion of the Tuyuhun King City, he took a few brothers to intercept the Tubo Xizuo, and that battle was regarded as a classic within the Hundred Cavalry.

But this man was so lucky that he began to be unlucky.

didn't follow Bao Dong to investigate the matter, but when he encountered a hooligan from the Criminal Department, he was ruthless and injured one person. But when he was asked by the chamberlain, he heroically took the responsibility for another serious injury.

At the moment, he was lying in his cell covered in bruises, with a rough bowl of wheat rice beside him.

A rat staggered towards Mai Fan.

It walked over to the bowl, bobbing its head from side to side, and began to steal food.

A broken shoe was thrown over, and Yang Dashu scolded weakly: "Get out!" ”

But the rat was not afraid at all, and still stole food.

A voice came from outside, "Look at its eyes." The rats in the prison don't just eat wheat rice, the meat of the dying...... It is also a delicacy in their mouths, and if they have eaten human flesh, their eyes will be red when they look at it. ”

Yang Dashu glanced at it and sneered: "Ye Ye went to the cemetery back then, and I also saw rats eating human flesh, and the meat was rotten and maggots, and the rats were ......."

"Gross!"

There was the sound of retching outside.

"Want to scare me with this? Dream! ”

A small official walked to the front of the cell, glanced at the mouse, and said lightly: "During Jia Ping'an's tenure in charge of the hundred horses, he can be called a one-handed cover of the sky, he has done a lot of things in the hundred horses, as long as you say it, you will be released when you turn around...... Chu Xiang guarantees your future, what are you waiting for? ”

Yang Dashu laughed miserably: "Uncle Wu Yang is loyal, if you want to accuse him, it's a dream!" ”

"Then you're killing yourself!"

In the cold voice, someone shouted, "Bring it out." ”

This is going to be tortured.

As a criminal who seriously injured two junior officials of the Criminal Department, Yang Dashu was beaten as soon as he came in, and then he was brought out to torture every three or five days, and gradually the question of torture changed from 'why did he seriously injure the junior officials of the Criminal Department' to 'What is Jia Ping'an doing in Baicai'.

Yang Dashu lay down, gasping and said, "Yes Ye can't move, if you have the ability, you will kill Ye Ye." And ......"

Several of the officials who came to mention him were laughing, and one of them said, "What can I do if I kill you?" At most, one death will be reported. ”

Death rather than torture is a good way to get away with responsibility.

Yang Dashu suddenly laughed, "Hahahaha...... Wu Yangbo will return to Chang'an sooner or later, you wait, sooner or later someone will come to clean you up, hahahaha! ”

"Bring it up!"

……

In the harem, Li Zhi is about to go to the court.

He dressed up, and Wu Mei's eyes suddenly showed a look of longing, "The concubine is now favored by His Majesty, and if Aya sees it, I don't know how to rejoice." ”

Wu Mei's father, Wu Shi Tong, was the hero of Emperor Gaozu's successful rebellion, and later died of grief after Emperor Gaozu's death, which can be called loyal to Li Tang.

Li Zhi was stunned for a moment, and immediately bowed his head, "Don't worry." ”

After Li Zhi left, Shao Peng approached and said in a low voice: "Zhaoyi, is it too sudden to ask for a posthumous gift for the sake of the Duke of the Late State?" If Your Majesty thinks it's greed......"

Wu Mei smiled and said, "If I wholeheartedly assist Your Majesty without making any requests, what will Your Majesty think?" Human nature is profit-seeking, and I ask for a posthumous gift for my late father, which is a matter of course. ”

She turned around, "You only know how to do things, you don't know how to ask for something in return, the emperor will be suspicious of your intentions." ”

Shao Peng was shocked, "Yes, the slave is shallow." ”

How can there be absolute faithfulness in this world? The courtiers do things for the emperor, and after making meritorious service, the emperor has to use wealth and honor to reward the merit.

Remember, reward!

There's a payout here.

If the emperor pursues any loyal courtier, you should make meritorious service, and what reward do you want......

It won't be long before he is unavailable.

This is human nature, and the emperor knows it well.

But Wu Mei actually knows a lot.

Shao Peng couldn't help but think of Jia Ping'an.

"If Uncle Wu Yang is in ......"

There was a gloomy look between Wu Mei's eyebrows, "Xu Jingzong has already played a sparse role, and he has complained for peace several times, but Sun Wuji, the eldest of the court, and others directly suppressed this matter. I also asked Your Majesty privately for credit! ”

At this moment, a team of people came to the outside of the city.

The group was dusty and tired.

The young man in the lead looked at Chang'an City and couldn't help laughing.

"Lao Tzu is back!"
