Chapter 401: Talismans
The Imperial Historical Tower, who is responsible for recording history, is also among them, it is an old man with gray hair and a wrinkled face, who was supported by a descendant and stood trembling behind King Li, and the latter was so frightened that he didn't dare to pant loudly, but the old man's eyes were shining, and he whispered to him: "Paper and pen, get ready." ”
The eyes of the latter were straight: "My lord, when has this been, I am still thinking about the pen and paper!" ”
The sky is about to change!
"Ahem, you don't move," the old man's eyes twinkled as if he had fallen into a star, not at all like an old man, "The more critical this is, the more we should record it according to the facts, you know, a big day like today, but some people may not be able to meet it in a few lifetimes, quickly prepare a pen and paper, what happened today, you have to write it down!" ”
Hou Sheng looked at the army not far away, and then at Fang Zhen, who was guarding King Li's side, and subconsciously shrank his neck: "My lord, this kind of thing must also be recorded, but the one who wants to be killed is ......."
Unexpectedly, the old man's beard was curled, and he didn't take his words seriously at all.
"Kill the head, kill the head, am I afraid of death? What I fear more than life and death is not being able to record the complete historical facts. ”
Since he was reluctant to write, the old man decided to write on his own.
Besides, the front line of the confrontation was silent for a moment because of Fang Zhen's sudden arrival.
Lu Li, who was originally standing two steps behind An Xiabai, stepped forward and stood directly beside An Xiabai, his gaze staring at Fang Zhen like an abyss: "General Fang, what you mean by this doesn't seem to be appropriate, right?" ”
Fang Zhen gritted his teeth and asked, "Why do you say this?" ”
"You are just a general, how can you make an idea on such a big matter as the cooperation between the two countries, everyone knows that King Li is the actual emperor of Jiang Guo now," Lu Li paused, and said with a smile, "Although King Li has not officially ascended the throne, but his identity is indeed enough to ascend the throne, and you, what are you?" You deliberately point fingers at the cooperation between the Liang State, could it be that you want to be the emperor? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes fell on Fang Zhen.
Fang Zhen's face turned pale, and finally he pounced and knelt down directly in front of King Li: "Please forgive your highness." ”
"You are not guilty." Liwang Tie said with a blue face, at this time, he really knows who is absolutely loyal to him, and who just regards himself as a cornucopia that can be used, before he had several doubts about Fang Zhen, and even did not hesitate to humiliate Fang Zhen in front of everyone, but now, only Fang Zhen is willing to serve him, and the others don't say a word as if they are dumb, they really raise a bunch of waste.
"Fang Zhen, if this king can successfully get out of trouble today, he will definitely crown you king."
Fang Zhen was shocked, and bowed his head respectfully: "Serving His Highness is a humble duty. ”
At this extremely serious moment, someone applauded inappropriately: "I have to say that General Fang is really loyal to His Royal Highness King Li, but it's a pity, His Royal Highness King Li has never believed in you from beginning to end, and now he gives you a promise, just because he wants you to help him get out of trouble, if the matter is resolved and you successfully leave the capital, he will not believe you for too long, it is estimated that he will be suspicious of you and suspect you as before." ”
"Anxia Bai!" King Li was furious.
An Xiabai lifted Xia Bai, and in front of King Li, he felt something from his bosom and raised it high, so that King Li could clearly see its shape.
"Does Your Highness still recognize this?"
King Li's eyes lit up slightly, of course he recognized this, no one wanted to obtain the talisman in An Xiabai's hand more than him! The reason why the capital was besieged but there were no soldiers and horses to come to support was because this talisman was not in the hands of King Li, the old man of the first emperor left a heart before he died, and issued a decree so that the army in the north could only obey the dispatch of the talisman, and King Li did not leave the capital for a long time, just to find this talisman, but he didn't expect it to be in the hands of An Xiabai!
King Li secretly gritted his teeth: "Give it to me!" ”
"Why?" In front of everyone, An Xiabai put the talisman back into his hand, "This talisman is not something that belongs to Your Highness, something that does not belong to you, do you want to covet it and get it?" ”
"It's not yours either!" King Li roared angrily, his eyes began to turn red with anger, "Even if you have a talisman, it is absolutely impossible to mobilize those people, the emperor gave an order before he died, only the people of the royal family will go to dispatch the army with the talisman, and those people will obey the order!" An Xiabai, it's useless for you to hold that thing, it's better to return it to this king, and then this king can be extra gracious, so that you and your family can leave the capital safely, and be rich and scattered for a lifetime? ”
"This-" An Xiabai pretended to think about it, and after a moment of silence, he smiled and said, "No. ”
Although the emperor had given an order before his death that only people from the royal family could dispatch troops, An Xiabai felt that his own husband could also, with Lu Li's prestige in the military camp in the southern and northern wars over the years, coupled with his credit for governing Nanhuai City and Lingcheng, if that army saw Lu Li, they would definitely be willing to serve him, not for the mediocre person in front of him, who even did not hesitate to kill the first emperor and queen in order to compete for the throne.
An Xiabai's gaze was as cold as ice.
King Li shuddered and suddenly came to his senses.
No, An Xiabai is very wrong, why hasn't she launched the army to make the final sprint, if the person standing outside is replaced by him, I'm afraid he has already let his subordinates attack the last piece of land, but why did An Xiabai and Lu Li delay in making a move, but now they are using nonsense to disrupt their sight? Who exactly are they waiting for?
King Li's gaze flickered and turned over the surrounding team, looking for a long time, but never seeing anyone.
Changwen is not with them.
"An Xiabai, what are you waiting for?" King Li asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Wait for a friend," An Xiabai squinted his eyes and smiled, "Speaking of which, that friend's relationship with His Royal Highness King Li is very unusual!" ”
People who have an unusual relationship with King Li, that must be a common sight.
King Li couldn't help but turn his gaze into two sharp swords: "Have you and Chang Wen already made a deal, Chang Wen has been lurking by this king's side for a long time to help you deal with this king, isn't it?" ”
"Of course not," Anxia Baihu glanced at King Li suspiciously and said, "At the beginning, Chang Wen was still loyal to Your Highness, but the reason why you turned against each other later was because Your Highness pressed too hard and too tightly, and Chang Wen really didn't have it, so he chose to take refuge on our side. ”
"I don't think what you said is right, Mrs. Lu."
Just when An Xia Bai choked King Deli and couldn't speak, Chen Lian suddenly walked out of the crowd and made An Xia Bai respectfully in front of everyone.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency?" An Xiabai had never seen Chen Lian.
"Chen Lian." She gave her name.
As soon as she heard these two words, An Xiabai knew who this person was in front of her, Yi Ling had told her about Chen Lian before, and she also knew Chen Lian's identity, the daughter of the Chen family in the south, who was very loved by the people...... Lu Li has no royal blood, if he decides to ascend the throne as emperor that day, he will have to face the strange eyes of the people in the world, explaining that they need Chen Lian and other famous families in the local area to help.
An Xiabai bowed: "It turned out to be Chen Lian's son." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Lian's eyes, but she quickly collected her emotions, still looking as cold as when they first met.
"As I traveled all the way north from the south, I saw many people displaced by the war, and if it weren't for General Lu's uprising, why would they have fallen to this point? If there is no General Lu, the people of the world will naturally be able to live in peace and happiness, General Lu is clearly the chaotic minister and thief in the cholera world, why does Mrs. Lu want to call him the master? Where in history would there be a master who displaced the people? ”
An Xiabai suddenly became a little more interested in Chen Lian.
"Since you don't think General Lu is the master, how about we argue about this issue?"
Just when they were making a big fuss about the war situation and who the real master was, Liu Fengfeng just took the soldiers into the capital.
Because the guards of the capital did not resist too much, the capital was not as depressed as other cities, but it was a little more deserted than back then. When Liu Fengfeng led the army through the long street, he saw that almost all the residents on the street had their doors closed, and they could still feel the scrutiny of the eyes thrown at them from all directions, including suspicion and fear.
Looking at this long street, Liu Fengfeng suddenly remembered the past.
At that time, he also walked on this long street, when he was not a rebel, but a victorious army returning from a victorious battle at the border pass, at that time the people welcomed each other, each with a warm smile on their faces, and some enthusiastic people, throwing flowers and fruits directly at their army, but I did not expect that less than two days later, the situation has become very different.
On the side, the rugged man stopped in the middle of the road, and a very pale smile was hooked at the corner of his lips.
"Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, I know that you are secretly observing our army that has just entered the city, and I also know that you must be worried that the army will loot you, in fact, you don't have to have this kind of concern at all, our general said, after entering the capital, without his order, all soldiers are not allowed to approach the houses, let alone harm any resident in the capital, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law, so if you are curious, you can directly open the door to look at us."
The long street was silent for a long time, and finally the sound of the door being opened was heard in a dilapidated house.
An immature child poked his head out of the door, and he looked at the general sitting on horseback with curious eyes: "Won't you really hurt the people of the capital?" ”
"No," Liu Fengfeng raised a big smile, "We will treat you like the people of Lingcheng and Nanhuai City." ”
