Chapter 450: The End of Qingping (Finale)
Zhang Changzong's poisoning was over, Quan Ce played a request for relief, went to Chang'an, sorted out the left and right leading guards, and thought about coming up with a heavy training plan as soon as possible, as for Qian Bao, it was a matter of a short period of time, and Quan Ce had not yet been put on the agenda.
It was also at this time that Wu Youning, the king of Jianchang, played and asked the Empress Wu to patrol Yushan and review the Yushan army.
He was also forced to be helpless on this recital, and the local official yamen complained about the court, revealing the details of the huge cost of the Yushan army, which caused many people to look sideways, and suffered a lot of squeezes in the open and secret, but the Yushan army was extremely secretive, and no one leaked to anyone, and no one spoke for them, Wu Youning was in an embarrassing and embarrassing situation, so he had to go to the performance and ask the Empress Wu to patrol and proofread, and use this way to correct himself and the Yushan army.
Empress Wu approved the edict and ordered Quan Ce and Princess Taiping to accompany him, and Quan Ce's trip to Chang'an had to be postponed.
Quan Ce and Princess Taiping went to Shangyang Palace together and waited for the drive.
Empress Wu was dressed in gold, and walked out of the Guanfeng Palace, I don't know if it was an illusion, Quan Ce looked at it, and felt that her figure was a little slimmer, her face was plump and delicate, her eyes were full of spring, and her momentum was as strong as before, but it was less slaughtering and more graceful.
Zhang Yizhi accompanied by the side, half a step behind, level with Shangguan Wan'er, not arrogant at all, he is still wearing a white robe, sad and sad is gone, rich like jade, radiant, holding a long flute, fluttering like a fairy, he is no longer white, the martial queen gave him a jinshi background, hung up the office of the general secretary, since he entered the palace, and the martial queen went in and out together, and the favor was better than Zhang Changzong's heyday, but he was as modest as before, not arrogant or impatient, dedicated to his duties, quite popular.
"Meet Your Majesty"
"I've Seen the Mother"
Quan Ce and Princess Taiping greeted together.
Empress Wu waved her hand, making them up, smiling slightly, "It's all your own family, you don't have to be polite, Quan Ce will send an order to Li Duozuo, you don't have to arrange Yan Zhiwei, Quan Zhu and other Han generals to accompany you, and let Tuoba Siyu, Li Kaigu and other generals go with their headquarters."
"Yes" the right policy to lead the order, and the heart is also in favor of the measures of the military queen, and the generals will go, which is not only not tied up, convenient for secrecy, but also can form a deterrent, killing two birds with one stone.
The carriages and horses set off, Zhang Yizhi was well-behaved, rode the horses and served, and did not get into the Luanyu of the martial arts, which seemed quite reserved.
Princess Taiping didn't care about that, she called Quan Ce to her frame and ride, frowned and stared, hugged Quan Ce's head, fiddled around, looked at him critically, and kept shaking her head and sighing, "Tsk, Da Lang, you are going down."
Quan Ce just smiled, sat down by himself, stretched out his hand to take the fragrant tea offered by Xiangnu, and sipped slowly, Zhang Yizhi Xu has not yet adapted to his identity, and there is still a little twist, this kind of posture is facing the desire for conquest of the Empress Wu, but it is always like this, it will also cause disgust, if he is smart, he should find a fit between reserve and dedication, and switch at the right time to please the Empress Wu.
Quan Ce pondered his mind silently, thinking about whether he should find an opportunity to teach Zhang Yizhi about the opportunity, but he just talked about it deeply, and he was involved in the internal curtain, which was quite unseemly.
was struggling, suddenly there was a sharp pain in her ears, and a strong fragrance came to her nose, Quan Ce twisted her body, picked her up by the waist, put her flat on her lap, and patted it gently, as if she was coaxing a doll.
"Da Lang, Zhang Changzong is getting better, Zhang Yizhi is favored again, in the future, the two of them will ......" Princess Taiping gathered her body, closed her eyes, and said softly.
"Hehe" Quan Ce smiled, buried his head in her long cloud-like hair, sniffed deeply, and shook his arms slightly.
The tendency of the martial queen not to set up a nephew and a son is gradually becoming clear, in order to keep the achievements of the Wuzhou Revolution, it will be more vigorously to promote the integration of the Li family and the Wu family, he seems to be left and right, but he is outside the core of the two families, Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi's brothers, is his last strategic opportunity period, giving him time to develop, it is a good thing, not a bad thing, to the Li Wu family can not tolerate the Zhang brothers, he must be strong enough, enough to control the situation.
Thinking of this, his blood surged, and he had a feeling of excitement that a red-eyed gambler couldn't wait to reveal the victory.
"Da Lang, don't be anxious, don't be afraid, with me, even if it's not good, I can keep your dough dough and be a rich man, I will accompany you" Princess Taiping was next to him, it was not difficult to detect his abnormality, her voice was soft, but she was extremely confident.
Quan Ce tightened his arms, calmed his breathing, and his heart was as strong as iron, "I'm not in a hurry, I will be able to do it"
On Yu Mountain, there are rows of huge cannons, nearly more than 100 guns, black muzzles, flashing cold metallic luster, 6,000 Yushan Army, as if it is a copy of the fireworks army, has been out of the appearance of cold weapons and horses, the armor is bright, under the order, feel and roll without distress, climb the hill, its speed is like the wind, everyone is tall and strong, but the chin is raised, it looks extremely arrogant, transporting the gunpowder balls improved from the gunpowder bag, the action is one and the same, it is very skilled.
Empress Wu inspected and nodded again and again, the money of the local official yamen was not thrown into the puddle in vain after all.
After reading the artillery and soldiers and horses, Wu Youning led Wu Hou and his party to a low soil slope ten zhang high and two zhang wide.
"Rammed earth?" Quan Ce's heart was slightly raised, and he glanced at Wu Youning, is this a bit risky?
Wu Youning was full of confidence, "It is rammed earth, because the masonry is difficult to transport up the mountain, and the construction takes a lot of time, so it can only be temporarily replaced by rammed earth to demonstrate the power of artillery for Your Majesty."
"Heh, okay" Empress Wu walked around the rammed earth mountain, chuckled, allowed to come down, and sat down on the high platform in the distance.
Wu Youning straightened his chest and pulled his back, strode to the tower on the other side, held his order high, and roared, "Let go ......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
A hundred cannons rang out, and after six consecutive rounds, Wu Youning's face was red and white.
Although the rammed earth mountain was blown down and collapsed, it was not leveled as he expected.
"Your Majesty......" Wu Youning was embarrassed and knelt on one knee, and the Yushan army behind him, including Wu Bingde, knelt on the ground together, and their pride was poured with a basin of cold water on their heads.
"Yes, the ability is good, the ability is a little bit, it is even more rare to know the truth, and I also know how to be decent" The martial queen stood up with his sleeves and scolded, "You Ning, everything must be both physical and spiritual, and it is necessary to learn from each other's strengths, the benefits of the fireworks army have been learned, and the bad problems of no dust have been learned, but ten out of ten have been learned"
"The minister is guilty" Wu Youning was full of shame, learning skills from a yellow-haired boy Xue Chongyin, which had already made him unable to pull his face, but he hadn't learned it well, and he had no face.
Empress Wu glanced at him, and ordered directly, the military plan of the Yushan Army is extremely important, and there is no room for mistakes, "Spread the decree, the officers and men of the Yushan Army, suspend the practical operation, break the establishment with the Fireworks Army, mix and train together, the right policy, you supervise, lead the army and guard over there, let Yanji keep an eye on it first, and maintain the situation."
"Obey the order" is the right to lead the order.
Wu Youning loosened the strap under his neck, and his cheeks bit tightly.
Suyu Palace, West Liang Palace.
After returning from Yushan, the martial queen did not enter the god capital, but stayed in the Yu Palace.
For Zhang Changzong's recovery, a family banquet was set up to celebrate, and all the royal family members of Li Wu's family were present, and the royal heir's family, who was confined to the Lintoe Palace, also lifted the ban and participated in the banquet.
The design of the West Liang Hall is out of the machine, under the eaves in the hall, there is a cloth felt flying curtain, the main hall is shaped like a nomadic tent, there is no high platform, sit side by side, and the table is arranged in a circle.
Empress Wu sat on the head, all the relatives sat around, Zhang Changzong and Zhang Yizhi served closely, Zhang Changzong's eyebrows and eyes were transparent, but he lost his flattery, Zhang Yizhi was a little reserved, but he also knew the cold and knew the heat, the two of them were both young and jade, singing and dancing banquets, the Empress Wu was quite happy, and the interaction with the two was quite close to the nickname.
"Dan, here are all close relatives, Shouyang is older, you can come to dance to help the fun" Empress Wu put down the wine glass and said suddenly.
"The son obeys the orders of his mother, there is a female name Bao'er in the royal brother's mansion, the beauty is recognized as the first in the royal family, Shouyang is mediocre, and he is willing to dance for his cousin" Li Dan didn't know whether he was cautious or had ulterior motives, and Li Bao'er was also implicated.
"Yes, Quan Ce, you come to stroke the qin, Goro, you come to blow the flute, and you will play the song on the Sansheng Stone" In the laughter of the martial queen, there was no disallowing.
So, the county lord of Shouyang and Li Bao'er danced opposite each other on the Xiliang Palace.
In the seat, Gaoyang Wang Wu Chongxun, his eyes were fixed on Li Bao'er's still slightly childish bewitching dance, and he raised his glass to his lips, not remembering to drink it.
In the midst of singing and dancing, Wu Sansi raised his wine glass and drank with Zhang Changzong, Wu Chongxun raised his glass to toast Li Chongrun, and Wu Yanji toasted Li Dan.
Quan Ce plucked the strings, and his ten fingers danced more and more rapidly.
At the end of Qingping, the wind gradually rose.
