Chapter 32: Entering the City (Seeking Recommendations and Collections)
Nodding with a smile, Empress Eldest Sun continued.
"With Ling Xian's ability, maybe he can really solve the problem of the displacement of the people after the war."
Hearing this, Li Er looked in the direction outside Chang'an City, sighed, and said slowly.
"I hope that if he can really do it, then with what he said about the method of solving the Turkic army and the method of making bamboo wings, I really don't know how to reward him, speaking of which, what I have rewarded this kid from beginning to end is just a false name, only the twelve states can be regarded as a real thing, but with the credit of solving the Turkic problem alone that day, I can only say that I should do this, and even treat him a little badly, alas, let me think about it."
As he spoke, Li Er slowly sat down after walking back to the bookcase, picking up the brush, as if he really wanted to think about how to reward Ling Xian.
Seeing Li Er's actions, Empress Eldest Sun smiled slightly, made a thousand blessings, and withdrew from the imperial study.
………
On the other side, Ling Xian gradually woke up from his coma, and habitually rubbed his eyes with his left arm, which suddenly touched the wound on his left arm, and Ling Xian almost screamed in pain.
Although he has Xiang Yu's combat power and Zhao Zilong's spearmanship, it is only to improve the strength and strength of his body, as well as the skills and methods of using weapons, and the feeling of pain from being injured cannot be eliminated, which can only be controlled with willpower.
Ling Xian had not experienced several wars, the time in Youzhou City, from beginning to end, he only relied on the power of explosives to win, and he was not injured at all, outside Chang'an City, it was just because he was prepared, and after killing the three Turkic generals, the Turkic soldiers were in a mess, and no one thought of attacking him.
But this time, Ling Xian really felt the feeling of the bow and arrow piercing into his left arm, it was so sour, no one loved it.
Ling Xian on the ground covered his left arm and rolled around on the ground, hissing from time to time because of the pain in his mouth, and after a long time, he felt the pain weaken before he slowly stood up, and complained with words on his mouth.
"Ge Laozi, I, Ling Immortal, is invincible in Chang'an, but I didn't expect to be planted here now."
After speaking, he suddenly smiled bitterly.
"Sure enough, as I expected, no, the situation is even worse than I imagined, the people of the breached city have actually begun to defend themselves, just listened to what the leader of the gang said, although there is no yin talk, but I think it should be a temporary army composed of young adults in one of the dozens of cities, and listening to his tone, it is obvious that he hates the people of Chang'an and the court to the extreme, and now only the provocation of a person with a heart can cause a rebellion, at that time, The Tang Dynasty, which had been greatly damaged by the Turkic plague, was bound to crumble. ”
After speaking, a gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes.
"In that case, then let me Ling Xian solve all this."
Thinking like this in his heart, he looked around, found his sweat and blood BMW, and smiled.
"It seems that the appearance of this sweaty BMW is quite bluffing, so it's okay, as long as you don't meet experts when you go out in the future, you don't have to worry about the BMW being stolen."
Turning over the horse, he picked up the reins with one hand, jerked violently, clamped the horse's belly between his legs, and galloped again, the target was the nearest city, which was already close at this time, and those with good eyes could even faintly see the outline of the broken city wall.

The outer city of Chang'an
Lingfu
Li Lizhi and Chi Mengxi sat opposite each other, and next to the two of them sat the eldest grandson queen who hurried after leaving the imperial study.
Unlike in the early morning, the two girls were all smiling at the moment, and there was no longer the grief and sadness at that time, it was obvious that the eldest grandson empress had already told the two of them the content of the letter that Ling Xian had given her.
Old Marquis Luo was also standing behind the beams of the house at this moment, listening to all this, with a smile on his face.
"Good boy, it turned out to be for the sake of the country, worthy of being the old man and my grandson, with the style I had back then!"
Thinking like this in my heart, an idea suddenly popped up in my mind, which grew bigger and bigger, and finally occupied the whole mind: Or will I follow that kid to join in the fun?
After a long time, he shook his head.
"Forget it, old man, I'm too old to stand the toss, so I'd better leave these things to the young people to do."
With that, he turned around and walked back to his room.
Li Lizhi and Chi Mengxi in the courtyard also finished discussing, and the two decided to open Ling's Restaurant, Ling's Liquor Workshop, the restaurant specializes in selling Ling Xian's hot pot, limited to twenty tables per day, and at the same time selling the distilled liquor of Ling's Liquor Workshop, the degree increases from low to high, and the highest number is the wine that Ling Xian sold to Hou Junji, the price is still ten gold per jar, the degree is forty degrees, and the price is reduced by two gold for every five degrees of degree, and the minimum degree is twenty degrees.
Even if it is a 20-degree wine, it is five degrees higher than the so-called imperial wine of the Tang Dynasty, and compared to the 10,000 yuan of fighting wine in the poems of Li Bai and others, it is actually affordable.
With a decision in their hearts, Li Lizhen and the two sent Empress Changsun back to the palace, and then began to handle many affairs about the venue and equipment.
The other side
Ling Xian had already ridden his horse and arrived at the gate of the city.
Looking at the dilapidated city wall in front of him, Ling Xian's heart was full of sighs, the Turkic people were brutal, they didn't know how many women and children they killed and looted in the process of attacking the city, and the casualties of young and strong men should be countless, no wonder why those people who intercepted them at the beginning hated the court so much, after all, at the moment of death, they all thought that the court could come to the rescue, but in the end, what they were waiting for was the separation of their wives and children, and only some of them had time to lead their wives and children to escape to the village next to the city to hide, They also starved for days until the Turks left, and did not dare to return to their already dilapidated homes.
Shaking his head, Ling Xian led the horse into the city.
As soon as I entered the door, the first thing I saw was the surviving women and children on both sides of the street, and there was not a single man in the prime of life, so I thought he had gone out of the city in search of food.
Looking at the women and children in tattered clothes, Ling Xian didn't have any evil thoughts in his heart, but just opened his baggage, took out the clothes inside and put them in his arms temporarily, and put the baggage on the ground, only to see that there were still more than a dozen steamed buns, boiled mutton and three roast chickens in the baggage.
These were all rations that Ling Xian had brought with him before leaving, but at this time he couldn't take care of himself, just these foods, he couldn't even feed one-fifth of the people in the city at this time, he naturally wouldn't take into account his feelings anymore, he had to know that he was still eating and drinking last night, but these people had been hungry for an unknown amount of time.
