Chapter 379: False Transmission of the Divine Decree to Liangzhou

Su Dingfang's funeral is being handled in the state city.

Although Su Dingfang served as the pacification ambassador of Liangzhou before his death, and he could be regarded as a general of the Liangzhou Prefecture, if it weren't for Li Xian's stubborn fight on this matter, I was afraid that the Son of Heaven would not be so aggressive, and even sent officials from the Ministry of Rites to accompany Su Yu and others to the funeral. Therefore, Su Dingfang's personal soldiers were all silent, and the garrison of Liangzhou City was also mourning for the main general, and a layer of dark clouds filled everyone's hearts.

The imperial court didn't know, and the people didn't know, but they were stationed in Liangzhou, which guarded the Central Plains and the four towns of Anxi, how could they not know the war clouds that permeated between Tubo and Tuyuhun, and how could they not see that Tubo was eyeing the outside world? In just a few years, there have been small battles between Tubo and Tuyuhun, and Tubo has attacked Khotan under the instigation of Shule, breaking the Qiang, if it were not for the heavy troops of Liangzhou Prefecture, I am afraid that the situation will be more serious.

At this moment, in addition to a few officials of the Imperial Court Rites Department who were in Liangzhou City, there were also Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling, the right military guard generals stationed in Liangzhou City. Colleagues with each other, plus Su Dingfang's boss is famous after all, they are a little sentimental, but at this time they attach the most importance to another thing.

Su Dingfang had just died, and Zheng Rentai, the governor of Liangzhou the year before, had also died.

For the generals, the horse leather shroud buried the bones on the battlefield, which is the slogan of all the generals to the outside world; But a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier, and a general who does not want to be a great general is not a good general. Although there is only one word difference between a general and a general, there is a world of difference when it comes to fighting. At the beginning, Su Dingfang was even more modest, and while the responsibility was heavy, the power was also considerable.

Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling are both generals of the Right Guard, and they are inseparable from each other, and at this time, they hung Su Dingfang, and they whispered in a room in the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion.

"Lao Xin, you see that the imperial court will choose one of you and me. Or will someone else come and take over? ”

When Xin Wenling heard Dugu Qingyun's question, he immediately smiled bitterly: "The imperial court is now using troops in Haidong, but I'm afraid that everyone will look over there." No one would want to come west. Damn, watching Tubo encroach on the surrounding forces little by little, those of us who are military generals can only watch, this master will not be a bag! In my opinion, the territory in Haidong is not as far away as the northwest, so what is there to do it! ”

"That was Emperor Taizong's last wish, and His Majesty can't help but fight." Dugu Qingyun saw Xin Wenling suddenly complain, and hurriedly warned, "Don't talk nonsense when you're outside." Otherwise, don't say that we can't do it, and we have to bear a big crime! Those officials of the Ministry of Rites are the most picky, but this time General Su was almost calculated, don't forget! ”

Xin Wenling snorted hatefully, and immediately stopped dwelling on this dangerous issue. At this time. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Before the two of them answered. The door was suddenly pushed open, and a man who looked like a small official rushed in in a panic.

"Two generals. Outside...... Outside...... His Royal Highness King Pei is down! ”

Pei Wang? Li Xian? Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling glanced at each other. At the same time, I felt inexplicable, and even thought that the little official was opening his mouth. This is Liangzhou. The important town guarding the four towns of Anxi and the main road of the Central Plains, it can even be said that it is the northwest front, this Peiwang Li Xian has nothing to do here, and there is no notice in advance! Thinking of this, Xin Wenling even stood up and slapped the little official on the shoulder.

"I see you're busy these days, hurry up and get some sleep, don't talk nonsense!"

Seeing that the two didn't believe it, the little official couldn't help but be angry: "The two generals, Lord Liang and Lord Luo of the Ministry of Rites have already been informed, and Miss Su has also gotten the news, if you don't go, don't blame me for not informing you!" With that, he bowed his hand, turned and hurried away.

"No, really?"

At this time, Dugu Qingyun was also dumbfounded, he was no longer blind, and he also knew that Pei Wang Li Xian was the emperor and empress's favorite prince, at this time, this master suddenly ran to Liangzhou to do something, and there was no news in advance.

However, Xin Wenling slapped him violently, stepped forward and pulled Dugu Qingyun's shoulder, and said mysteriously: "I heard about General Su when he was drunk once, when he left Chang'an, he once entrusted Miss Su to His Royal Highness, and he said that he would find a good family affair. If I'm not mistaken, maybe people can't rest assured that Miss Su is there, so ......"

Dugu Qingyun rolled his eyes angrily: "Nonsense, that's the prince, can you run around casually?" ”

Laughing and laughing, the two of them quickly tidied up their clothes and went out. When they arrived at the meeting hall of the Metropolitan Governor's Palace, the two of them saw a young man with a long jade body looking at the plaque hanging in the hall with his hands in his hand

A man with a fierce aura was standing on the side, and the two young men on the other side were holding an axe, one rubbing a bright silver spear, and they looked as conspicuous as they were.

At this time, Dugu Qingyun, who had studied the personnel of the capital, no longer had any doubts, and hurriedly pulled Xin Wenling up to salute: "Meet His Royal Highness King Pei!" ”

Li Xian looked back and saw that there were two generals in samurai uniforms, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help the two of them, and asked their official names, and he laughed: "Although I am a prince, I don't know anything in this important town, and I came to Liangzhou at the behest of my father, and I will ask the two of you to take care of me in the future." ”

By the will of my father!

These just six words Sheng Yunwen Yao Yuanzhi and the six guards were unheard, but Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling were taken aback, and at the same time, Cheng Bohu and Xue Dingshan also glanced at each other, and the same thought surged in their hearts - Li Xian really lied without blinking his eyes, and it could be said that it was expedient last time in Chang'an, aren't you afraid that someone from Luoyang will expose it?

Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling didn't expect Li Xian to dare to fake the holy decree, and immediately changed to a solemn look. Not long after, the two officials of the Ministry of Rites who heard the news also hurried over, and after meeting Li Xian, they were also suspicious. The four people present all thought of a possibility, could it be that the imperial court was preparing to use troops in the northwest?

The last to arrive were Su Yu and Lu Sanniang. The two didn't expect Li Xian to come over at this time, and they were even more dumbfounded when they saw Li Xian's big gang, and they forgot to ask him how he got here.

"The Garqin Mausoleum did not return, and in order to leave safely, he even did not hesitate to hurt people and set fire to Luoyang, which can be described as a heinous crime. My Datang treats him as a high-ranking official, even if he wants to leave, he can make it clear to his father, and there is no need to use such means. Therefore, I went to Liangzhou on the orders of my father, firstly, to intercept him, and secondly, to guard against the Tibetan from taking this opportunity to send troops. ”

Tubo sends troops!

Dugu Qingyun glanced at Xin Wenling unconsciously, and her heart sank. You must know that Tubo has just reported that Gardonzan is critically ill, and the third son is arguing over who will succeed him, so it stands to reason that he will not send troops at this time. However, Qinling spent a lot of effort to escape from Chang'an to return to Tibet, could it be that all this was a trick? Almost instinctively, the two of them bowed their hands to Li Xian at the same time, and said hello to the two officials of the Ministry of Rites and Su Yulu Sanniang, and hurriedly left the conference hall.

100,000 is urgent, they have to find out the situation carefully!

The two officials of the Ministry of Rites were taken aback by the facts described by Li Xian, and they were so dizzy that they completely forgot to question the authenticity of the so-called will of the Son of Heaven, but thought of the consequences of using troops on both sides of the east and west, and when they saw Dugu Qingyun and Xin Wenling leaving, they also hurriedly took their leave and went to digest the series of things that Li Xian said.

"Rokuro, what you said is true?"

"I don't dare to say 100% sure, but at least 70% likely."

Su Yu never expected that his grandfather had just died, and this Liangzhou might attract war. Thinking of the help of everyone these days, as well as the simple people and children in Liangzhou City, she suddenly became bloodless. And Lu Sanniang finally experienced something, at this time, she put her arm around Su Yu's shoulders and comforted her for a while, and suddenly looked up at Li Xian, her eyes suddenly a little strange.

"Your Highness said that this is at the behest of His Majesty, is this true?"

"Naturally, take it seriously!" Li Xian's lies were refined under the oppression of supreme beings like his father and mother, although Lu Sanniang's gaze was also a little oppressive, but it was really nothing to him, and he answered very cheerfully, and even added a sentence, "How can I come nonsense about such a trivial matter?" ”

Lu Sanniang looked at Li Xian suspiciously, and finally threw away the trace of doubt in her heart - if this master came for Xiao Su, he should not bring Cheng Bohu to get in the way, I think there is another purpose. Of course, she couldn't have dreamed that although Li Xian didn't come for Su Yu, he did come to falsely pass on the holy decree.

When he settled his subordinates and closed the door and sat on the bed alone, Li Xiancai couldn't help but worry. Fortunately, this Tang Dynasty does not have a perverted captivity system like the Qing Dynasty, and he doesn't have to worry about not seeing the light of day in the future. But even so, this time he caused a lot of trouble, and it was a good thing to make his father and mother angry, and the only hope was that his prince brother could pull him at a critical moment!

The gods and Buddhas must bless him this time! Although he doesn't burn incense on weekdays, if he is safe and sound this time, he will definitely reshape the golden body of Lao Tzu in the Taizhen Temple when he goes back, and how much incense money to donate is easy to discuss! Don't Qinling didn't catch him, but he was taken back by his father and mother, then it was really miserable!
