Chapter 104: One Hit Counts

Li Shimin mentioned Cheng Chumo, and he looked murderous.

Empress Eldest Sun wanted to persuade her, but she knew that sometimes her husband would inevitably be rash, after all...... The emperor is a man, and his blood is strong.

But Li Shimin immediately said to Zhang Qian: "Go and tell Chen Zhengtai that I don't want to see him, let him think about it by himself, and reflect on himself." Besides, he ordered a few guards to go to Erpigou and watch him out. ”

When Zhang Qian heard this, he cheered up, although His Majesty did not put Chen Zhengtai in prison, but let people take custody, isn't this like house arrest?

Chen Zhengtai, Chen Zhengtai, you also have today!

Zhang Qian hurriedly took the order and left.

Empress Eldest Sun frowned slightly: "Erlang ......"

Li Shimin smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think I want to put him under house arrest? Guanyin, you are too underestimated of my belly, how much credit he Chen Zhengtai has made for me, I also know in my heart that the prince's wanton behavior is not all Chen Zhengtai's responsibility. On the contrary, when he learned the news, he came to the palace to confess his guilt as soon as possible, which in my opinion, is a person who has the courage to take responsibility, can know his mistakes and has the courage to admit it, and his mind will not be bad after all. I ordered the guards to guard him, ostensibly as a punishment, but in fact to protect his safety, you don't want to think about it, which of the guards around the prince is a fuel-efficient lamp? and that Cheng Chumo, who was also pulled away by Cheng Qian, everyone didn't dare to blame Cheng Qian, they wanted to put the responsibility on Chen Zhengtai's head, there were these guards looking at Chen Zhengtai, I was relieved, otherwise, ...... Who knows if this kid will be torn apart. ”

Empress Eldest Sun instantly understood something.

Whether it is the emperor or the guards around the prince, almost all of them are the sons of Xungui, these people are innocent, and they are the young and strong children of Xungui's mansion, so they are the most worthy of the trust of the palace, this time Li Chengqian took away most of the guards in the East Palace, behind these people, they are not fuel-efficient lamps.

Empress Changsun couldn't imagine that Her Majesty was thinking so far-reaching, and she also nodded secretly, what Your Majesty said is really true, people were abducted by the crown prince, in the eyes of others, isn't it a bad thing for Chen Zhengtai? These are all people with military merits, and their tempers are not very good.

So she sighed and said quietly: "The prince's behavior today is really sad for his parents, and I don't know when he will grow up, this palace now only hopes that he can return safely, hey......"

Li Shimin was angry and worried in his heart, and wanted to scold a few words, but his eyes couldn't help but drift on Li Tai's body.

Li Chengqian is unruly, although the subordinate officials in the East Palace still cover up for him, and always praise the prince for his filial piety and studiousness, but Li Shimin knows that this guy is ...... It's the character of the demon king of the mixed world.。

On the contrary, Li Tai is really studious, polite, courteous, and quite noble.

Thereupon...... I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, and I thought about it.

…………

Chen Zhengtai didn't see Li Shimin, and he was suddenly disappointed.

Don't...... Have you been abandoned?

Immediately afterwards, several guards followed him by order, and wherever Chen Zhengtai went, they were also with him, coupled with His Majesty's edict that asked him to think about it behind closed doors, which suddenly made Chen Zhengtai vigilant.

Yesterday was still standing at the peak of his life, and in the blink of an eye, he was really one step away from being imprisoned.

It's all Li Chengqian's bastard thing, my Chen family...... It's bloody.

He went home obediently and hid in the study, and the atmosphere in the Chen family became solemn, after all, ...... There were suddenly more 'outsiders' in the family, and these outsiders always looked at everyone in the Chen family with a malicious look.

Chen Zhengtai was in the study, and decided not to step out of the door, so he precipitated himself and tried to reflect on why he made a mistake with bandits.

In the end, he came to the conclusion that the most urgent task at the moment was to hurry up and write a letter to His Majesty.

So unfold the paper, pick up the pen and write 'the teacher is pro-enlightenment', and feel dissatisfied, anyway, the Chen family paper is more, so he spread out another one, and look up and write 'dear to the dear and loving the ...... teacher', or feel a little dissatisfied, so he put the pen and sighed, recently inflated, even the letter will not be written, think about it again and again, then pick up the pen and write on the new paper 'dearest and beloved, Shun Tianying, Wen Fen Wuqin, dear and beloved, dear and holy teacher pro-enlightenment......"

This...... I'm slightly satisfied, but it's just ......

Will it be a little greasy? Oh, it's really annoying to pat yourself on the back, but I have to be like this, the four seas have not yet served guests, the people of the world have not filled their stomachs, and I, Chen Zhengtai, still have to work hard to live.

After repairing the book, I found a way to make Ma Zhou play for Chen, so I was a little relieved.

Next, Chen Zhengtai hid in the study, making a look of reflection and self-respect.

Chang'an City has exploded, and the guards around the prince are not easy to mess with, on the surface they are just a small security guard, mediocre, but in fact they are the children of many family lords, and now they are ...... The people are gone, they are on duty, they are jumping up and down early in the morning, and they are on duty, but they don't see anyone!

What about people? I actually went to Xiazhou...... Where is Xiazhou...... The Turkic army has arrived, and this is coming to an end.

As a result, countless people gritted their teeth and inquired everywhere......

As a result, the Chen family became the target of public criticism!

After all, no one dares to scold the prince, and no one dares to scold the prince for having no way to teach his father, think about it, surnamed Chen, do you still want to run?

The Chen family stopped all of a sudden, and even the third uncle, who had always loved to run to Erpigou, actually hid in the house, determined to precipitate himself!

The most angry is Cheng Yanjin, he didn't send his son to be a guard, after all, Cheng Chumo is still young, according to his plan, his son should be a jinshi, surnamed Chen cheated so much money, let his son go to training, people go to study well, and was actually abducted to Xiazhou, the conscience of heaven and earth, his son's legs are still limping!

It is said that he often haunts the Chen family, but as long as he is on duty, he will carry a brick in his hand, hold his hands behind his back, and hold the general's belly, like a general attacking the city, looking at the city wall, looking for the flaws in the wall of the Chen family! Whenever someone enters and exits Chen's house, his eyes narrow, and when he looks carefully, the bricks in his hand are pinched and a little brick crumbs fall, and he occasionally mutters: "Chen Zhengtai has a third uncle, he personally collected the old man's money, and slaughtered ......him first."

But at this moment, the sharp-eyed Cheng Yanjin saw a head popping out from behind the wall of the Chen family, and this half of the head, revealing two more eyes, carefully looked at everything outside the wall.

At this time...... Cheng Yanjin's blood surged suddenly, his eyes were as big as copper bells, his eyes were bloodshot, and he roared: "The old thief of the Chen family, you really have nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them, you are here." ”

The voice was extremely loud, and the owner of the half head trembled, who is not the third uncle?

He trembled, but when he saw that it was only Cheng Yanjin outside the wall, he calmed down and said calmly: "General Cheng, who are you scolding?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin said angrily: "The one who scolded you is the old thief, pay me back." ”

"Pay it back? Have you ever seen a person who paid the tuition fee and had a reason to pay it back? Don't think that you are a general, the old man is afraid of you, my Chen family has backbone. The third uncle shouted loudly.

"Ahhh......h ”

"Yikes." The third uncle smiled in the wall: "You come, you come in and skin the old man, the old man doesn't pay back, and the second is not afraid of death, you come in, and say such things to the old man in front of the old man." ”

Cheng Yanjin trembled angrily: "I'll come in now." ”

"You come, you come, we have a forbidden ...... in the palace in our Chen family"

When the third uncle said this, he saw Cheng Yanjin outside the wall running, he hurriedly walked down the escalator under his feet.

Don't look at Cheng Biting Jin's strong body, but like a harrier, it is extremely dexterous, the wall in front of him, after he ran up, his body jumped up, his hand has grabbed the top of the wall, his arms are supported, the whole person jumps in mid-air, and when the third uncle gets off the escalator, he has found that it is dark in front of him, and then the angry Cheng Biting Jin has stood in front of him.

The third uncle looked at Cheng Yanjin, who was close at hand in front of him: "......"

Cheng Yanjin glared at the third uncle angrily.

"So-and-so is coming!" Cheng biting gold shook like thunder.

The third uncle's body suddenly staggered, feeling soft up and down, he did not hesitate to bite the gold and salute Cheng Jin: "General Cheng, I was wrong." ”

Cheng bit Jin clenched his fists, and the joints of his fists gurgled.

The third uncle said with a miserable face: "The old man saw General Cheng, General Cheng's leap, it was really a hero, General Cheng...... I'm over sixty years old, my hair is white, and one leg has stepped on the coffin, I ......"

The third uncle had tears in his eyes: "I'm sometimes confused, just for the sake of the old man's snow sideburns and frosty mustache, don't worry about the old man, spare your life......"

There was a miserable scream, and it was extremely poignant.

Cheng Yanjin, who was furious, suddenly sighed, as if he felt that it was really meaningless for him to kill such an old man, and the anger on his body disappeared silently, replaced by a thick sadness: "Hey...... Chu Mo is the young son of the old man, the old man puts all his hopes on him, hopes that he can study, hopes that he can make the old man raise his eyebrows, the old man is not afraid that his son will die on the battlefield, but the old man is reluctant to send the child to death senselessly, he is still a child......"

Cheng Yanjin muttered to himself, this once invincible demon king of the mixed world, at this time, only desolation remained, his shoulders shrugged slightly, and when he said that he was emotional, he turned his head and turned his back, not wanting people to see his sobbing, and then staggered, stumbled, and staggered in the direction of the gate of the Chen family!

I only listened to his faint voice: "Things shouldn't be like this, it's me, the father, who hurt him, and now I don't expect him to have any more chance, I just want him to ...... He...... Don't die senselessly...... He...... He hasn't even left a queen in this world......"

Person...... It's gone.

The third uncle breathed a sigh of relief, sighed and said, "Hey...... It's so impressive. ”

The third uncle's eyes were also a little red, he felt that it was wrong for the prince to do this, this not only harmed the Chen family, but also took the young son of the Cheng family.

After all, I am still old, and I can't see such a thing, especially in the face of a father who has temporarily lost his son, the crying look, a few words are like cutting my heart with a knife!

Immediately, he let out another breath and said in a low voice: "Fortunately, the old man endured it, otherwise he would have really refunded his tuition fees when he was almost emotional, the old man is too kind, and if he goes on like this, sooner or later he will have to return to poverty because of goodness." ”

…………

Xiazhou is located in the northwest of the Yellow River Loop, fertile for thousands of miles, since the destruction of the grain division, the imperial court has moved a lot of people for reclamation, and then, in the north, prepare to build a large number of fortresses.

Once all of these are completed, it means that Xiazhou has the ability to defend against the northern Turks.

This is also the reason why the Turks moved south.

For the Turks, the Tang army had just recovered Xiazhou, the people's hearts were unstable, and the city had not been repaired, which was a godsend.

At this time, the horse quickly arrived at a certain village.

The village was sparsely populated, and when it was heard that the Turks were preparing to go south, the people of the village had taken refuge in the nearby fortress with their families, except for a few old men who knew the destiny of heaven.

As the horse entered the village, the man on the horse dismounted and shouted, "Your Highness, Your Highness...... It has been found out clearly, the Turks are entrenched in the southern foot of Yinshan Mountain, they seized the Jilu Stop, this Jilu Plug is the throat from the northern foot of the Yinshan Mountain to the southern foothills, seize here, you can peep into Xiazhou, I heard that the Turkic Khan is very likely to garrison the Chinese army here, because most of the nearby wilderness, a large number of Turks along the river to garrison horses. The night here is cold and frozen, the cold wind is very strong, if there is no shelter, even the tents of the Turks will be blown up, only the wall of this chicken deer plug is high enough to shelter from the wind, this Turkic Khan, since it is golden, will be stationed in this fortress with high walls on all sides, this time, can shelter from the wind, not like ordinary Turks, suffer from the cold wind. Secondly...... Even his personal guards can save manpower and effort. ”

"Great."

It was Li Chengqian, who was talking with a dusty face, he was so excited that his eyebrows fluttered, these guards he brought were all meritorious services, and because of this, these people's knowledge in military affairs was not wasted!

In order to avoid the 'chasing soldiers' behind him, Li Chengqian deliberately borrowed a small road, and even disguised himself, and finally came here!

At this time, he pursed his lips and sighed in his heart...... It turned out that out of the customs, the rumored Xiazhou was so desolate, under the years of war, no one was even willing to restrain the bones on the side of the road!

At this time, it was late autumn, and the weather was getting colder and colder, so he realized that he should have brought more military supplies, so he sent people to the nearby capital fortress, and in the name of the prince, he transferred some grain, but now that he has revealed his hidden line, I am afraid that soon, the people who chased his father in Chang'an City will soon appear.

If the location of the Turkic Khan can no longer be discovered, I am afraid that I will have to go back in disgrace.

Thinking about it, he hurriedly said: "Cheng Chumo, take the lonely map." ”

So Cheng Chumo, who was standing silently on the side, lame, staggered to take the map of the sheepskin.

The location of the chicken deer plug is easy to find, this is the throat of the place, who knows that the Turks are menacing, and they quickly seized here, such a place where soldiers must fight, fell too quickly, so that the entire Xiazhou was like a great enemy, fell into a panic,

Cheng Chu said silently: "Your Highness, the northwest wind is blowing now, and our current position is at the downwind outlet, even if this flying ball is useful, I'm afraid that there is no way to fly to Jilusai, otherwise, let's go back, and ...... next time."

"Shut up, let you read the text, if you don't read it, don't you know...... Is there an air flow in the sky? Between different air flow layers, the wind direction is different, we are blowing northwest wind on the ground, but in other air flow layers it may not be, as long as the altitude is adjusted, you can go in which direction, which direction. If the Turkic tent is really in Jilusai, then it is our God-given opportunity, and it is best to find it here, and the location is ready-made...... Let Lone think about it...... According to the lonely view, without further ado, late will change, tonight...... Let's try it out and see if we can find a location. ”

After that, the forbidden army beside him said: "Quick, let the brothers prepare the guys, and get on the flying ball alone, Cheng Chumo, you choose more than a dozen people and set off with the lonely." ”

Cheng Chumo shuddered, and said with a bitter face: "Your Highness, my leg was injured by my father." ”

Li Chengqian said angrily: "That lonely will break the legs of your father's whole family, will you avenge you?" ”

“……”

……

Noon......

The huge cowhide flying ball was slowly filled, and under the flying ball, there was a rattan basket one foot square, and under the rattan basket, a large amount of gunpowder had been bundled.

Li Chengqian flipped over and flew the ball.

This flying ball...... The principle is very simple, even simple and incredible, and under the guidance of Chen Zhengtai, it is not only made, but also a super large size.

Of course, it's just a matter of money.

As the cable was untied, the flying ball slowly rose up.

Immediately afterwards, Li Chengqian took out Sinan and Yutu, discerning the direction, how to identify the location, this was what Chen Zhengtai taught him.

This thing...... Whether it's making or using, it's simple, it's just ...... Why didn't people think of it before, but only Chen Zhengtai thought of it?

It's really a demon, go back and squeeze him dry, he must have a few hands left.

Waiting for the sky to go up, Li Chengqian began to regret a little, it turned out that this was not as simple as he imagined in advance, he kept letting people take small flags to identify the direction of the wind, and finally the flying ball rose to a certain height in the direction of the chicken deer stopper, Li Chengqian ordered people to master the fire, so that the flying ball stabilized at this height, and then ...... The flying ball followed the wind, slowly moving forward.

The person in charge of the observation was a janissary, this person had good eyesight, according to the prediction, if he could really find the chicken deer stopper, then it should be at night, and night is also the most suitable time for attack, and ...... It is also good for observation, because at night the Turks must light bonfires, which are easiest to identify at night, and the area around the Turks' sweat tent must be the most dense campfire.

Of course...... This is just speculation.

Li Chengqian didn't know if he could have this luck, let alone know who the person who could be killed if he was lucky, he just thought that he was here to blow up the Turks, so he didn't care about him.
