Chapter Seventy-Five: Li Zhilai Picks Up and Enters the Palace in Advance
The Central Plains of the East Soil, the fertile soil does not know tens of millions, warm and warm, it is the land of the bucks, I don't know how much to compete for through the ages, the imperial capital Chang'an is magnificently located, worshiped by all countries, and the Tang Dynasty is supreme prosperous and rich.
All the way to the east, the climate is getting warmer and warmer, many soldiers see their homeland, they are very happy, the horse's hooves are also brisk, twenty miles away from the imperial capital, stationed down, rectify the military appearance, fresh clothes and angry horses, do the triumphant proud gesture, this is the rumbling to Chang'an.
Li Jing has long been accustomed to seeing such scenes, there is no wave in his heart, there is no joy on his face, he is only worried that after Her Royal Highness the princess returns to Beijing, he can't say that heaven and earth will make trouble for these rebellious ministers.
However, the soldiers of the army returned to their hometown as if they were honored, just waiting for the people to sandwich the road, so as to teach the world to see how brave and heroic the Tang Dynasty Erlang was.
But when I arrived at the ten-mile long pavilion, there was no sign of people, and I only saw a biao soldiers and horses, black armor and silver guns, tall and strong, but the soldiers and horses of the guards on the left and right doors!
Seeing that Li Jing's army came from afar, dozens of horses under the long pavilion came forward to greet him, the leader was young and romantic, and his eyebrows revealed the temperament of the emperor's family, but he was the third prince of today, Li Zhi, the king of Jin!
Although Li Jing is old, his heroic spirit is not short, he does not make that delicate car, just like when he was a strong horse, sitting on the horseback, his waist has not been bent, seeing Li Zhi coming to greet him, he pressed down the army, and did not fall off the horse slowly, but Li Zhi is a person who understands etiquette, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab the old general.
Li Tang's family is well-educated, polite to many founding ministers, and his children are also respectful to these heroes.
Li Zhi naturally congratulated him to comfort the army's heart, but his face had many hidden worries, and he wanted to stop talking, but he didn't know the essentials, and when he finished greeting on his face, he lowered his voice and asked hurriedly: "Gong Wei, my hard-working sister, is she really in the army?" ”
He Li is also a loyal minister, and he has already transmitted the information to Chang'an through his own line, but he has not replied for a long time, and I don't know how Li Zhi got the news.
Li Jing originally wanted to send Li Mingda directly into the palace, but although he was an old minister, the palace ban could not be exempted, Li Zhi and Jinyang had the same father and mother, and they had a very good relationship since childhood.
Thinking of this, Li Jing also lowered his voice and said: "The prince is silent, wait for the old man to take you to recognize your relatives." ”
Let's say that Li Mingda and Li Wushuang hid in the car, saw the grass and trees around them, and missed them more and more, although they had adventures all the way and had a great exercise in their minds and bodies, they still couldn't help crying.
This time the army stopped, but Li Wushuang was a person with a heart, through the window, he saw it clearly, recognized the Li family's brother, and hurriedly pulled Li Mingda to come and see, this little boy saw his brother, and his tears fell like a rain line.
Xu Zhen and Caesar and other brothers escorted the car, seeing Li Mingda's posture, their hearts were also very moved, thinking of this girl who had endured hardships and stood hard work all the way, I don't know how much wind and frost she suffered, how much frost and dew she ate, and she couldn't help but feel sorry.
This Li Zhi got Li Jinggong's guidance, three steps and two steps, before he arrived at the carriage, his eyes were already blurred with tears, Li Mingda didn't care about this, rushed out of the car, brothers and sisters hugged each other and cried, a scene that moved the world and the world.
The two didn't have time to talk more, Li Zhi had a discussion with Wei Gong Li Jing, and wanted to make the left and right gate guards escort him to welcome Li Mingda back to the palace to face the saint.
Li Jing had no objection, but Li Mingda had an extra heart, and he privately told his brother about the important points, but he couldn't trust these guards.
Li Zhi knew that his sister had suffered monstrous suffering, and his heart had really grown up, and he was secretly happy, but also alert, although this place was at the foot of the Son of Heaven, but the eight hundred guards, not too much, too little, not afraid of other brave robbers, afraid of hidden traitors, if Li Mingda was injured, it would be a crime that could not be punished.
Li Mingda has always understood his brother, and he has been obedient to him since he was a child, so he proposed a bold but safe plan at this time, so that Xu Zhen's 600 headquarters would escort her into Chang'an!
At this time, it can be big or small, and it is said that Xu Zhen and others are just low-level soldiers, although they also have a little reputation in the court, but they can't be on the stage after all, and besides, even if they enter Chang'an, these 600 foreign troops can't say that they will cause some criticism again.
But Li Mingda insisted on his opinion, Li Zhi had no choice but to agree, Li Mingda glanced back at Xu Zhen, his eyes were full of gratitude, although he often scolded Xu Zhen for being a big liar, but this way down, leaving Xu Zhen, there was no her Li Mingda.
At this time, I saw that this young man was on an equal footing with Li Jing, and he behaved like this little girl with Xu Zhen's family, no matter how stupid a person is, he can see that this little girl of Xu Zhen's family is not a simple character.
When the 600 people of Xu Zhen's headquarters reorganized the army, went out to rectify, and set off with Li Mingda's car, everyone was only envious.
The accompanying left and right gate guards had to look at Xu Zhen's camp coldly, but Xu Zhen's six hundred brothers were loyal and dead, and they had experienced a bloody battle of life and death, and they exuded a murderous aura all over their bodies.
Li Zhi rode the horse and the front of the car, Xu Zhen and Kaisa were accompanied by the car, Zhou Cang and other fourteen Hongjia brothers, as well as Yinzong, Gao Heshu, Xue Dayi, Qin Guang and Xie Anting, etc., were all heroes, one by one, like a dragon and a tiger, and his subordinates were cold and solemn, all of them were angry, and who dared to approach?
After traveling five miles, there were 1,000 people from Yiwei to greet him, but Li Mingda was stubborn and did not allow Xu Zhen's headquarters to leave half an inch, Li Zhi followed his wishes and ordered Yiwei to escort him left and right, all the way, but he did not see the people of Pingtou and the civil and military officials to greet each other, until outside Chang'an City, he found that the people gathered, but he did not shout, and waited with a cold face.
Xu Zhen felt unsatisfactory, and he was also vigilant in his heart, thinking that Li Mingda was taken away in Chang'an City at the beginning, but this time he was careless.
Step by step to the Mingde Gate, but the left and right Jin Wuwei came to take over, along the Vermilion Bird Street to the Vermilion Bird Gate, and changed the left and right Qianniu Guards, the same clothes and armor are angry, and in front of the Suzaku Gate, a veteran is like a late lion and looks at it, it is the right Wuhou general Lieutenant Chi Jingde is also!
At that time, Wei Chi Jingde was already sixty, although he was not as old as Li Jing, but he also retired from his official position, saying that he was sick at home, and there were many rumors in the market that he was obsessed with the way of Danshi, but he still went to court every five days, and the saint would ask him for his opinion whenever he was undecided.
Even this god-like figure has moved out, which shows that it is not the personal action of Li Zhi, the king of Jin, to greet Jinyang, but the personal arrangement of His Majesty today!
When I arrived at the Vermilion Bird Gate, I went in again but it was the Inner Imperial City, and a foreign army was stopped by Wei Chi Gong, leaving only Xu Zhen and a few people such as the personal Caesar, Li Mingda entered the golden tent that had already been prepared, followed Li Zhi Wei Chi Gong in, and arrived at the Chengtian Gate, which was the Taiji Palace, and even Kaisa was not allowed to enter, only Xu Zhen Li Zhi and Li Wushuang were left, plus Wei Chi Gong.
Li Zhi is also a thoughtful person, seeing that Xu Zhen was carrying an eagle bow and a long knife, he had already asked people to seal the carved bow, and took a six-foot carved sword box, put away the long knife, and kept it for Xu Zhen, but he seemed to remember something about it, so he left the sword box to Xu Zhen.
Li Wushuang has a special identity and is close to the royal family, so he is not bound by the palace ban, and he can't get used to seeing Xu Zhen's face, so he confessed to Wei Chi Jingde and went out.
The waiting eunuch hurriedly led Yu Chi Jingde and Xu Zhen to a side hall, and many servants shuttled like fish, entertaining them, but Yu Chi Jingde was a straight person, he didn't like to be restrained, and waved his hand to let these subordinates go out, don't disturb the master to speak.
When these people all went out, the old man looked at Xu Zhenlai directly.
Xu Zhen is familiar with "St. Asvito", although this Zoroastrian secret book does not have the science of alchemy in the Central Plains, but it has the secret recipe of medicine in the Western Regions.
Therefore, he saw the old man's physique and felt his breath, only to feel that this Wei Chi Jingde was indeed eroded by the elixir, although it was tough on the surface, in fact, the foundation had begun to be slowly hollowed out.
From this point of view, the rumors are not groundless, this extraordinary general has gone astray after all.
Xu Zhen was so flustered that he had to laugh: "Grandpa Guo looks at the villain like this, the young man is thin-skinned and can't stand scrutiny..."
Wei Chi Jingde came back to his senses at this time, turned his face away, and after a while, he seemed to have made a great determination, turned his head again, looked directly at Xu Zhen, and asked: "I heard that Xu Langjun has won the favor of Hu Tian and has become a Zoroastrian oracle, but is there such a thing?" ”
Xu Zhen's heart suddenly tightened, at this time, the Tang Dynasty has not yet worshiped Buddha on a large scale, Taoism is the head of the world, and he does not agree with many religions, if it is said that Xu Zhen's original Wuhou belongs to the likes of the police and city management, this Wei Chi Jingde is a grandfather at the level of the Minister of Public Security, such a big man asked about the identity of Zoroastrianism, how dare Xu Zhen answer!
"It's all false rumors in the army, the kid is only shallow in learning, his ambition is weak, and he doesn't have a big heart, how can he be contaminated with such Taoism..."
Seeing Xu Zhen's cold sweat, Wei Chi Jingde also came to his senses, and hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "Don't worry about Xu children, the old man has been looking forward to Zoroastrianism for a long time, and he will never discriminate against him, and the children can rest assured, it's just... It's just that the old man wants to ask, has there ever been an elixir prescription passed down in this Zoroastrianism? ”
Xu Zhen heard this old man's question, so he relaxed, which also confirmed the rumors that Yu Chi Jingde was scattered, although there are indeed some prescriptions on the Zoroastrian secret canon, but at this time it can be big or small, Xu Zhen did not dare to agree, only perfunctory response, Yu Chi Jingde also knew the joints, although he no longer asked, but Xu Zhen had already been included in the list of asking for medicine.
This side is still waiting, but Li Jing's side has already entered the city, but the situation is not as imagined, they have not been welcomed by the mountains and tsunamis, but they have been abused and accused by the people all the way, and even threw dirt to the triumphant army!
"Traitor!"
"A dog thief who fornicates with thieves!"
Being scolded like this, although Li Jing's face was still calm, he already understood something, it seems that Hou Junji, who returned to the dynasty earlier than him, has begun to spread rumors everywhere, this is about to start!
