Chapter 01 Something happens for a reason

Luoyang soldiers were in turmoil, and the fire was soaring.

General Jin Wuwei of the Yulin Army - Dugu got his wish, escorted and fled westward, and the Jinyang rebels chased after him, wanting to cut the grass and eradicate the roots.

Accompanying the escort was a twenty-six-year-old general, Yang Ying of Jingyang Military Mansion.

Emperor Yuan Xiu abandoned his wife in order to survive, and even his favorite nobles were thrown into the chaos, but he still couldn't get rid of it.

The iron mask who is responsible for chasing the holy opinion, leading the elite "wolf assault horse" of Jinyang, is about to catch up.

The line between life and death.

——————

In 534 AD, that is, the third year of Emperor Xiaowu of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Emperor Yuan Xiu wanted to kill the powerful minister Gao Huan, but the plan was leaked and was exposed by the queen in high definition. HD is the eldest daughter of Prime Minister Gao Huan, the news of the pigeon spread to Jinyang, Gao Huan was angry, rebels more than 150,000, led by his son Gao Cheng and Gao Yang, crossed the Yellow River, divided into two roads, and besieged the imperial capital Luoyang.

For a while, the country was in flames, and wolf smoke was everywhere.

The rebel army was like a bamboo, killing all the way to the city of Luoyang.

When the news of the war arrived at the palace, the government and the opposition were shocked, and the courtiers were divided into the main battle lord and the two factions, each insisting on one word and arguing.

The main peace faction led by Hu Sichun, most of the Gao clan's henchmen installed in the imperial capital, advocated that it was important to save their lives and surrender to Kaesong.

The main battle faction led by Dugu Ruyi advocated sending an edict for help to the Quartet, while holding on to the city and waiting for rescue.

Most of the rest of the centrists chose to flee with their families.

For a time, dark clouds were in the sky over Jinghua, and the neighborhood was bleak and bleak. Luoyang City, which has been noisy for thousands of years, is no longer prosperous in the past.

Only the flower shop in the south city, crowded with people, bustling, under the dance of the warblers and swallows, in the red wine and green, it is still in the spring.

Dugu, who was dressed in armor, took a team of cronies as he wished, separated the drunken and dreamy crowd, and shuttled forcefully and hard in the fragrant wind and meat forest.

They must find the emperor who left the palace without permission.

According to the Hundred Horsemen, His Majesty is here.

Most people will get out of the way, and there are also old bustards who come up to solicit business, and are pushed aside by the brute force of the soldiers.

For three whole days, the official and private shops have turned upside down, and no shadow of the emperor has been found.

Where did you say that at this juncture, a big living person ran away?

Dugu passed through the helmet as he wished, stroking the back of his head.

Before I knew it, I had found out from sunset to midnight.

Unlike the sparse market, the flower shop becomes more and more lively as the night progresses.

At the end of the street is the most luxurious moon building in Luoyang.

Colorful lights are hung high, and the traffic is busy.

This is the only one that hasn't been checked for the last one.

Staying at the end is because the Moon Missing Building is not a place that can be entered casually.

A five-storey octagonal building stands in the very center of the flower shop.

The whole body of emerald green glaze, covered in the wooden structure, the decoration of a hundred flowers and birds are all pure copper reliefs, the railings are all silver-wrapped gold silk nanmu, 1,618 wind chimes are made of pure gold, and the whole upstairs is dotted with colorful ayaluo......

It is said that the inside of the building is 100,000 times more luxurious than the outside, and there are priceless calligraphy and paintings of all dynasties and dynasties, and huge Qibao coral trees are placed everywhere......

"This is ......" Dugu looked up at the tall building and called a follower.

"General, don't you know, today is the night of the full moon, and it is the day when the eldest lady of the Hou Mo Chen family dances the ice jade platform."

"Oh?" Dugu still doesn't quite understand.

"My lord doesn't know, who would have thought that the most beautiful dancing girl in the whole empire is actually a lady from a wealthy family. But it seems that she herself doesn't care about public opinion and is willing to perform on stage. But ......"

"But?"

"But it's only on stage once a month, and it's outdated. Countless old men want to see the splendour. A ticket is hard to find, it is useless to have money alone, and you have to have a high status and status. Those who can enter are all the emperor's relatives, princes and generals. The small ones are just hearsay. ”

Dugu smiled helplessly, and led everyone through the traffic to the vermilion gate.

"Miscellaneous people are not allowed to enter!" From afar, he was blocked by a row of big men at the door.

Dugu didn't break in, nor did he back down, just stood quietly at the door.

"What's going on?" Soon, a steward dressed in silk embroidery rushed out.

With a look at his face, how can Dugu admit the appearance of the most beautiful man in the world as he wishes?

"Oops! Isn't this a side-hatted lonely man? "The steward came out of the crowd with a flattering face." What kind of wind is blowing today? ”

"Dare to disrupt the people, dare to call the general's name!" The soldiers behind him almost wanted to have a seizure, but they were stopped by Dugu as he wished.

Dugu took off his helmet and handed it to his subordinates as he wished, and saluted respectfully: "Under Dugu as he wishes, I hope that the general will give him thin noodles and open the door of convenience." ”

The guards who took the helmets behind had never seen the general whisper, and he had another attack for a while, and he was about to fight, but he was pressed by Dugu with one hand.

The steward was well-informed, and he was not afraid, so he deliberately looked embarrassed: "The general has no votes, this is ...... You have a lot of adults, don't be embarrassed by villains. ”

"There is no way, I only need to enter by myself, check it, and I am tired and accommodating, and the lower officials are willing to give all six BMW horses in the house tomorrow."

"This ...... Not so good...... Moreover, the villain doesn't have such a big authority, which disturbs the adults inside, and the little ones can't afford it. The butler's mustache moved, smiling rather than smiling.

The guards in the back finally couldn't help it: "My general worked day and night for the guards of the Beijing Division, and there were people like you who pushed ...... way."

Before he finished speaking, he was turned around and taken away by Dugu. Before leaving, I didn't forget to look back at Shi Li: "It's all because the discipline is not strict at ordinary times, the soldiers are all rough people, and they are not very sensible, please forgive me for the collision." ”

It seems that today's work is again in vain.

Dugu sighed as he wished.

————————

The white jade wrench fingers the Qiong Yao cup, and the matsutake whale paste is fragrant.

The fairy branch jade liquid bucket is tens of millions, and the drunken prince forgets to return.

——

Full of ear greetings, everywhere are nobles dressed in Chinese costumes come and go in groups, the ring-shaped viewing floor carved gallery painting building, beautiful. Those who have not sat down are carrying the escorts looking for seats, and those who have sat down are pushing their cups into the cup and drinking to their heart's content.

The box on the top of the building is covered with a satin curtain, and all the people who sit are people who do not want to reveal their identities.

In front of one of the railings, there was a middle-aged man in disheveled clothes, who was already slightly drunk.

Beside him, a plump and glamorous Mei Ji was pouring wine for him, it was Jia Guiren.

It turned out that he was the son of heaven - Yuan Xiu.

has been hiding here for three days, knowing that his generals outside are looking for him, he still chooses to be drunk and dream of death.

Next to Jia Guiren, there is also his beautiful cousin, Yuan Mingyue.

The two women were also disheveled like him.

"You say, isn't it embarrassing for me to be the emperor?"

"Your Majesty, you're drunk, eat a cherry to wake up the bar......" Yuan Mingyue crawled over.

"Is it a real failure? Yes? He didn't take the fruit, but he hooked the beauty's jaw.

"Your Majesty, look, it looks like it's about to start!" Jia Guiren straightened up a pair of rounds, leaned out of the railing, and pointed to the stage in the center.

The Emperor followed her finger and looked at the ice-like white jade platform in the middle of the ring tower.

Around the circular stage, colorful fireworks are lit.

As the fireworks went out, four red copper faucets in the east, west, south and north spat water.

The water gradually rose, and the silk bamboo music began.

The female voice came from nowhere, and the aftermath lingered, accompanied by the song:

"The wind and clouds are exhausted, and I don't remember the road.

The landslide and the river are pouring, looking back at the hometown and the moonlight.

Cheerful to welcome, when to enter the king's heart.

One night of spring rain, the dream is still thirty miles. ”

Background.

Candelabra reflects a bronze mirror.

reflects a face that captivates the country and the city.

The red lips are slightly opened, and the paper is lightly contained.

Except for an emerald green hairpin and a snow-white hairband, there is no trace of superfluity on the bun.

"Miss, you are really more beautiful than usual today!" The little maid helped comb her hair behind her.

The man in the bronze mirror was silent.

"I've heard that there are three distinguished guests among today's guests! Do you want to ...... "The little maid's mouth is too fast."

Hou Mo Chen Wu got up with a smile, and his white clothes rose in the wind.

"Where are the distinguished guests, they are still a group of laymen."

"Well, this time it's different!" The little maid wrinkled her nose and shook her head. "This time it's different."

"What's the difference?"

"I've heard the familiar lobby inspector say, one is the most holy person in the world, the other is a person with ancient and modern wisdom, and the other is a person who is brave and brave in the three armies."

"Oh?" Hou Mo Chen Wu had probably guessed who it was. "What's the wind blowing today?"

"It's Miss's fragrance!"

"Okay, don't talk about it. The tee is almost over, and I'm going to climb the tall building. ”

"Yes, miss." The little maid hurriedly lifted the long skirt and followed step by step.

————————————————

The singing in the front will stop, and the lights of the audience will be extinguished.

In a box in the southwest corner of the fifth floor, there is a strange atmosphere, there is no candlelight, and it is pitch black.

Quiet and quiet, no fine wine and delicacies, and no beautiful wives and concubines.

Through the surrounding afterglow, only a few dark shadows could be faintly seen.

In a gloomy corner lies a shadowy humanoid.

With a wave of his ink-like sleeves, the black shadows around him dissipated in an instant.

I saw him show his snow-white teeth, and his smile was even more penetrating.

——————————————————————

A beam of moonlight fell on the center of the stage, and a snow-white ribbon floated from the sky.

A delicate and graceful figure spiraled down the ribbon like a fairy flying out of the sky.

It's like having no weight.

The drums beat.

The wind also rises.

Roll up the white clothes like clouds.

Snow-white skin faintly fell from the clouds.

The sound of the piano broke and the silk sounded, revealing a charming glance back.

The eyebrows are far away, and the pupils are cold.

The audience erupted in exclamation.

Vermilion lips and bright teeth, going back and forth, I don't like heavy makeup, I love no makeup.

The corners of the skirt attract countless lotus lanterns, flowing down the water, surrounding the flying petals, and provoking the fragrance of Guizhi Lan.

Silk and bamboo gradually cooperated.

Step by step, turn and look back, the smoke and waves hide the gentle township.

The drum beats lightly, like autumn rain through time.

Layers of candlelight rose, and the Iren hummed and sang in a minor tune.

Singing about the yellowing of the past, do you vaguely remember the appearance of the old man?

With a sigh, the world is impermanent; The waist turns, and the south is sorghum.

The smoke and wind warmed Du Kang, and the half-awake rivers and lakes were forgetful.

I still remember that year, the night was slightly cool, a good son, and he passed the flower window in order to seek fame.

Step forward, step back, there seem to be a thousand words hidden.

Send you a long way forward, and the mountains and seas will not be able to take precautions.

Covering up the panic in my heart, it carved an itch.

A song ends abruptly, and what does it matter if the song is over? Returning home in a drunken dream.

——

Everyone was intoxicated with singing and dancing for a long time, and when they came back to their senses, the upstairs and downstairs were brightly lit, and the stage was already empty.

A gasp erupted in a shower of applause.

——————————

When Emperor Yuan Xiu woke up and turned around, when he looked back, he was shocked into a cold sweat.

I don't know when there were a few more knife marks on the drapery.

The table in front of him was also cut in two for some reason, and the wine and food were scattered all over the place.

Looking at Jia Guiren and Yuan Mingyue, the two beauties seemed to be at a loss.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on Jia Guiren's plump chest, and there seemed to be a note inserted in it.

Take it and unfold it, with only one line of small print written on it:

"Your Majesty owes me my life."

————————————————

Seeing the man in black covered in injuries come back to his life, the figure in the dark was angry and threw up his sleeves and left:

"A bunch of trash! A bunch of rubbish! A bunch of rubbish! ”

I can't even beat a single guest general!

What is the use of raising you?

——————————————

There was a young figure mixed in the crowd that ended.

A gold-silk robe and a navy blue knife.

Kicking the stone casually, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Brother Shadow, how's it going?"

A delicate and slender figure squeezed over from the side,

"It's Ling'er...... Nothing remarkable, I left a note. ”

"You really left that note!"

"Of course! It's all written......"

"Where did you put it? Can the stupid emperor see it? ”

"Hmm......" Yang Ying recalled the feeling at that time, scratching the back of her head. I think you can see it......"
