Chapter 322 Hongmen Banquet, Picture Poor Dagger See (I)

The matter between Zhang Pian and Wan Chun caused a lot of commotion in Chang'an City, and it can be said that it was boiling. In the middle of the court, there is an undercurrent. Some people took the opportunity to fall into the well, some people remained silent and watched, and some people hated that iron could not become steel, and felt that Zhang Yan was a little carried away.

Yang Lian and the others sighed secretly in their hearts: For the sake of a woman, let Zhang Jiyong and these people grab their pigtails, this King Yongning is still too young and too presumptuous.

With Zhang Pian's power, what kind of woman can't be had, why do you have to risk the disapproval of the world, and would rather turn your face with Li Heng than marry Wan Chun into the door.

It's not worth it, it's not worth it.

Compared with the uproar of the court and the opposition, the palace of Yongning seemed very calm.

Zhang Xun returned to his home, and lived his peaceful life back to Beijing Province as usual. Of course, there are many people, and in many cases, it is inevitable that there will be some subordinate servants fù secretly talking behind their backs.

Cui Ying reacted very calmly, as if she had guessed that Zhang Xuan would do this.

What Li Tengkong didn't expect was that Wan Chun, the princess of the dynasty, actually had a sī affair with Zhang Xuan÷ which was obviously related to Zhang Pian's previous appointment as Tang Fan's ambassador and escorted Wan Chun and Tubo all the way. Almost no one knows that the story of Zhang Pian and Wan Chun began before Trisong Detsen's marriage proposal.

By chance, Zhang Yi and this royal princess who was out of the woods came together, and then Zhang Mo remembered countless times that he and Wan Chun had feelings for the past first.

In fact, the past is unbearable.

For now, both Zhang Ji and Wan Chun subconsciously avoid the slightly unbearable "beginning" of this relationship. The past doesn't matter, it doesn't matter how you started, it's the present that matters.

When Yang Sanjie got the news, she couldn't believe her ears at first, and then she felt a little jealous in her heart, if it wasn't for Yang Yuhuan to stop her, she would definitely go to the Yongning Mansion to ask Zhang Yan face to face, when did she hook up with Wanchun again.

Yang Yuhuan was a little sad. She was not jealous that Wan Chun and Zhang Xuan had come together, but that she thought of herself from the difficult and gentle style of Zhang Pian and Wan Chun's marriage.

She knew in her heart that Wan Chun married into the Yongning Palace as a princess, although it was difficult, there was still this possibility; But she, now and in the future, is destined to never have a public identity. Perhaps, she can only hide behind the scenes and silently be an unknown woman.

On the day of the Yuanzheng, the feast of the year.

According to the custom, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, the royal family and even the harem concubines had to gather together for a grand banquet to keep the New Year.

This year's New Year's Eve Banquet was Li Heng's first feast since he took power, and it was naturally very grand and gorgeous.

Since the afternoon, there have been Chang'an magnates with their wives and daughters into the palace and rushed to the Mingde Hall of Xingqing Palace. By dusk, all the people who were eligible to participate in the banquet were basically seated, and only when Li Heng and Zhang Liangti arrived, the banquet could be announced.

Zhang Pian naturally wants to enter the palace, how can he be missing on such an occasion, the king of Yongning and the marshal of Longshuo.

When Zhang Pian left the palace with Cui Ying and Li Tengkong, the last trace of the sunset completely dissipated, a faint night shrouded it, and the cold northwest wind blew quietly again.

The yellow leaves flying in the sky added a bit of solemnity to this colorful and joyful Chang'an City.

Cui Ying is Zhang Yin's wife, Princess Yongning, so she naturally wants to attend the banquet. And Li Tengkong is now also the county lady canonized by the imperial court, and he is also qualified to attend. Although Li Tengkong didn't like to participate in this kind of aristocratic banquet, as Zhang Pian's nominal wife, she had no other choice.

Nan Jiyun led more than 100 fierce guards to stand under the horse, escorting a wide and luxurious carriage∨ leaving the gate of the mansion and was about to get on the car with Cui Ying and Li Tengkong's two daughters, when he suddenly heard the sound of dense horse hooves, and a horse galloped over.

The guards suddenly guarded Zhang Ji and the three of them in the center, and the knight on the horse had already turned over and dismounted, wearing the captain's costume of Yu Linwei.

This person knelt on one knee and said in a low voice, "Lord Wang, the young general Peng Chun, on the orders of General Yang, sent a secret letter to the prince. ”

Peng Chun held a secret letter in both hands and held it high.

Nan Jiyun hurriedly took it and presented it to Zhang Xuan.

Zhang Pian's heart suddenly burst out, and a bad premonition floated.

He opened the secret letter and read it hurriedly, his face changed suddenly.

Zhang Pian held the letter tightly in his hand, looked up at the sky, his face was deep, and he was silent.

Li Tengkong was stunned, and was about to say a few words, when he was suddenly gently pulled by Cui Ying, he closed his mouth and stood there quietly with Cui Ying waiting.

Long.

Zhang Pian slowly lowered his head, glanced at Nan Jiyun, and said in a deep voice, "Ying'er, Kong'er, you get in the car first, rush to the imperial city first, and wait for me in front of the palace gate!" I'll come when I go! Nanba, you come with this king! ”

Zhang Pian didn't talk any nonsense, turned around and strode back towards Fuzhong.

A trace of deep worry flashed in Cui Ying's eyes. Although she didn't know what had happened, she knew that it was not a good thing by looking at Zhang Yan's face.

She sighed faintly, took Li Tengkong's hand and quietly got into the carriage, the carriage started slowly, and the protective armor of the dozens of Yongning palace guards slowly marched towards the imperial city, and the guards who opened the pieces did not move.

They are Zhang Xuan's direct protectors, henchmen among henchmen, and they take it as their responsibility to protect Zhang Xuan's safety∨ Xuan does not move, they naturally do not move.

Den.

Yang Lian entered the back door of the palace alone, and quietly entered Zhang Xuan's study accompanied by Nan Jiyun.

Zhang Pian sat silently, calm and calm.

Yang Lian bowed down and bowed, "Lord Wang, the last general will be polite!" ”

"Yang Lian, don't be polite÷ it's important, this king asks you again, is there any evidence for this matter?" Zhang Bu's voice was unusually low, and he waved his hand.

"Lord Wang, how dare the last general speak of such a big thing. An hour ago, Chen Xuanli suddenly mobilized the left guard Yulin Army to leave the Xuanwumen camp, and secretly opened to Tonghuamen in the name of guarding the palace ban...... All kinds of signs show that the target of these two thousand Lin Wei is Xingqing Palace! ”

The last general was puzzled, thinking that something had changed in the palace. Next, the last general got news from the palace that the right guard led the governor Shi Gongsun You to lead the right guard to help people take over the guards of Xingqing Palace, and the palace guards were transferred to the imperial city. ”

"Chen Xuanli's people and Gongsun You's people were mobilized at the same time to defend Xingqing Palace, if this matter was not ordered by His Royal Highness, then there was only one possibility...... Chen Xuanli and Li Yu, the king of Chu, acted on their own! Yang Lian gritted his teeth, glanced at Zhang Fang's face, and said resolutely, "The last general felt that the matter was urgent, so he rushed over!" ”

Although Yang Lian's words were not thorough, the implication was already obvious.

Today is a banquet for the New Year, and Li Heng has no reason to make a big move and use swords and soldiers. It can only be that Chen Xuanli and Li Yu conspired to do something wrong, and they wanted to do that act of admonishing the palace by the soldiers. From the analysis of the current situation, it is impossible for Li Yu to kill his father in public, and the object of him and Chen Xuanli is very likely to be Zhang Pian.

It's not Zhang Yin, it must be Yang Guozhong.

And when Yang Lian got the news, it was actually relatively half a beat late, and at this time, I am afraid that the two thousand forest guards under Chen Xuanli had already finished deploying outside the Xingqing Palace. And everything in the palace has already been arranged.

Therefore, Yang Lian did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent someone to report Zhang Pian secretly, and at the same time rushed over himself.

Zhang Pin smiled coldly, "Yang Lian, it seems that someone can't help but want to attack this king or Yang Xiang." Chen Xuanli doesn't have such courage, this matter is ......", "Who will be the master of this Yulin Guard?" ”

"Chen Xuanli's henchman Meng Xun." Yang Lian replied.

A hint of fierceness flashed in Zhang Pian's eyes, "This matter is not masterminded by Li Yu, the king of Chu, or planned by His Royal Highness himself!" Of course, the possibility of His Highness personally plotting is not great. ”

Yang Lian nodded, "Lord, please forgive the general's bluntness, as a precaution, please also ask the prince to stay in the mansion because he is sick, and not go to the palace to attend the banquet,......

Yang Lian's eyes were eager, and he clenched his fists and stopped talking.

The corners of Zhang Pian's mouth twitched, and he suddenly smiled, arched his hand to Yang Lian and said, "This king has returned to Beijing to report on his work, how can he say goodbye without telling his orders?" If so, wouldn't this king become the second An Lushan? ”

"The banquet of the New Year's Eve in this palace, this king cannot be absent." The smile on the corner of Zhang Pian's mouth became stronger and stronger, and he nodded to Yang Lian, "Yang Lian, if it weren't for your news this time, I'm afraid that this king would really become a turtle in the urn and be slaughtered."

"Lord Wang, otherwise, the last general will transfer Yu Linwei to Xingqing Palace immediately...... If there is no side, the last general should lead Yu Linwei to rush into the palace and swear to protect the safety of the prince! ”

Yang Lian said angrily.

Zhang Pian let out a sigh of relief, and suddenly hugged his fists as a salute, "General Yang is so kind and righteous that Zhang is inexplicably moved..."Another day, Zhang must have hòu newspaper!" ”

"Brother Annoying Lao immediately returned to the Yulinwei camp with General Yang, mobilized men and horses, and rushed to Xingqing Palace in case he was not sideways...... Nanba, you take this king's escort army into the Yulin Guard, and the camera acts. ”

Xiao Shisanlang nodded silently.

Nan Jiyun hugged his fists anxiously and said, "Dashuai, the last general should lead the escort army to protect Dashuai into the palace, if anyone dares to be disrespectful to Dashuai......"

Before Nan Jiyun's words were finished, he was interrupted by Zhang Yan.

Zhang Fang shook his head, "No." You can't bring armor into the palace without the king's military order! ”

Yang Lian, Xiao Shisanlang, and Nan Jiyun hurried away.

Hua Nu'er said quietly, "Is this Yang Lian reliable?" The slave family thinks that you can't take this risk, so it's better to make a decision immediately, lead the escort army to protect the family, rush out of Chang'an, and return to Longshuo. You have a self-respecting army in Longshuo, and Li Heng doesn't dare to do anything to you. ”

Zhang Pian said indifferently, "Yang Lian once followed me to quell the rebellion, and he had a bit of friendship in the past. And all along, he has been very close to me, and everyone in Chang'an City knows that he Yang Lian is my Zhang Xuan's cronies. If I fall, he won't have a good life, I'm afraid Chen Xuanli will be the first to attack him. In order to protect himself, he can only advance and retreat with me. ”

"I can't go like this, and if I go like this, won't I give someone a handle? Besides, I want to see what tricks Li Yu and Chen Xuanli can play. ”!。
