The Resurrected Empire Volume Chapter 207 A Promise to Change the Future
ο»Ώ
Outside the door, looking at Li Yanzong and Li Cunzhi who came back, Li Ang took their picture and frowned, although it was the same as he expected, those old people of the ancestral hall party never thought that anyone would dare to attack them, although they all brought henchmen to protect them, but they were defenseless, but the trouble was that those guards stayed outside the main hall of the discussion, and it was difficult to distinguish and annihilate them. "Here, here, and here." Li Ang pointed to several places on the map and said to Li Yanzong and Li Cunzhi, "The people here will be handed over to you." Then he looked at Dugu Xiao, "The others will go directly to the front of the main hall with me." β
The sun has set in the west, in the red sunset, Li Ang took the trilogy to step through the palace gate, and walked to the henchmen and their guards of the elders of the major family ancestral halls in the distance, this may be the last time they see the sunset of Chang'an, Cao Anmin and Li Ang do not want their lives, but those who replace the old people may not let them go, there is no bloodless coup d'Γ©tat in this world.
Just when Li Ang approached the palace with his troops, Li Cunzhi and Li Yanzong had already led people to approach the henchmen and guards of the ancestral hall elders who did not stay in front of the main hall, but what they didn't expect was that these guards were by no means ordinary, and when they started, they were discovered, so the sneak attack turned into an encounter, and casualties were inevitable.
Hearing the sound of a fight coming from the ground suddenly, the henchmen and guards of the ancestral hall elders in front of the main hall were all alert, and at this time they saw Li Ang and his party wearing the uniforms of the Yulin Guard, all of them showing a vigilant posture.
Seeing that the matter had come to this, Li Ang could only dispel all the original thoughts of being captured. let Dugu Xiao and them move, and he himself personally led people into the crowd. In fact, he should have thought that those ancestral hall elders were all untouchable figures, and how could the guards around him be mediocre, Li Cunzhi and Li Yanzong were silent, and they would not let them find out if they investigated the situation, but it may not be possible to sneak attack.
I heard the sound of a fight suddenly sounding outside the hall. The elders of the ancestral halls of the major families who were fighting for the elders of the ancestral hall of the clan all looked at each other, and then they looked at Cao Anmin, but all they saw was the emperor who was dozing.
Gently awakened by the attendants, Cao Anmin looked at the ancestral hall elders who were staring at him, and pretended not to know, "Is there already a result?" In fact, he had already heard the sound of fighting outside the hall, and when everyone looked at the emperor who seemed to know nothing, Li Ang led people into the hall, although the guards brought by those ancestral hall elders were all masters, but unfortunately they did not belong to each other. When he was fighting, he was scattered, but it just made him work harder.
I saw Li Ang enter the temple. Those ancestral hall elders immediately understood, the emperor had attacked them, and many people's faces suddenly turned pale, and the hall became dead silence in an instant. Looking at the silent ancestral hall elders, Cao Anmin stood up, "I just plan to invite you to stay in the palace for a while. Nothing else. After speaking, Cao Anmin ignored the ancestral hall elders and walked straight into the darkness behind him.
Li Ang's subordinates guarded the entire hall, and some of them were still holding knives with blood dripping from them, making those elders of the Ancestral Hall, who were usually in power, feel that death was so close to them for the first time. They looked at Li Ang, who was dressed in black, and they were all apprehensive, but none of them dared to talk to this notorious upstart.
Li Ang saw that those ancestral hall elders were just stunned when they looked at each other, walked to a quiet place in the hall and knelt down, closed his eyes and recuperated, which made those ancestral hall elders even more frightened and inexplicable.
Little by little, time passed. The ancestral hall elders in the hall didn't dare to gasp, and they also knelt down like Li Ang. Thinking about the emperor's true purpose in their hearts, at this time they also understood that Li Ang was just a knife in the emperor's hand, and it was the person holding the knife who decided their fate, not the murderous knife in front of them, after figuring this out, they calmed down a lot and thought of more things, many of them guessed the emperor's intentions, but they were powerless to change anything.
In this way, in a strange silence, the elders of the ancestral hall spent a sleepless night. In the early morning, some attendants brought pastries and tea, and these ancestral hall elders were under the supervision of Li Ang's subordinates, and they didn't even have a chance to inquire about the news from the attendants.
After the morning passed, Li Ang was still meditating, and the ancestral hall elders could only sit and whisper to each other. When it was almost noon, the sound of soldiers and armor suddenly sounded outside the hall, and Li Yanzong, who was guarding outside the hall, walked in quickly, and whispered in Li Ang's ear, but it made those ancestral hall elders stretch their necks, but unfortunately they couldn't hear anything.
Li Ang stood up, and at this time, there were already soldiers in charge of Jinwu outside the main hall, and they had come to invite these ancestral hall elders to live in the inner palace for a while at the behest of Cao Anmin.
"General Li, Your Majesty invites you to go to the Imperial Study." Cao Anmin's chamberlain, who came with Jin Wu, found Li Ang and conveyed the emperor's orders.
"Hmm." Li Ang nodded, and walked out of the main hall with the inner attendants, while those ancestral hall elders were pale and under the supervision of the soldiers holding Jinwu, and headed towards the inner palace in the distance.
Walking quietly on the road leading to the imperial study, Li Ang thought of Cao Anmin, for Cao Anmin, last night was also a sleepless night, those young Zhuang characters of the family are not easy to deal with, very difficult to deal with.
Soon Li Ang arrived in the imperial study, Cao Anmin was sitting in the chair in front of the desk, with a tired face, all night, he was dealing with those young Zhuang factions of the family, at this time his eyes were full of bloodshots, but when he saw Li Ang, he couldn't help but lift his spirits, and after the chamberlain withdrew from the imperial study and closed the palace door, he stood up and smiled at Li Ang, "I won this game." β
After Cao Anmin smiled, his face sank again, he looked at Li Ang, and said after a deep sigh, his expression was a little hesitant, "They want me to cut off your title of general of Zhengxi, I promised them, you won't blame me, right?" β
"This is something that the minister has expected for a long time, and Your Majesty doesn't have to mind." Li Ang replied with a smile, in fact, he had thought of this from the beginning, one hundred and fifty years down. The family of Chang'an has long been in a group, for the newly rising family. They will always be hostile, and no one wants someone to take away their own interests from them, not to mention that he has done something wrong with him this time
Secretly, he was already jealous of many people, how could those people let go of this opportunity.
Seeing Li Ang's calm face, Cao Anmin knew that he was afraid that he would not care about the gain or loss of the title at all. However, he was always a little apologetic in his heart, and he planned to compensate Li Ang, "I want you to go to Jiangyuan, what do you think?" β
'Showon. Li Ang looked at Cao Anmin, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, most of the generals in the Yuan were middle and lower-level officers with no background in the Great Qin Army, all of them were selected from the major metropolitan palaces, in the past, the major families usually extended their tentacles into the Jiangyuan to recruit talents for their own families, but in the past thirty years. The Great Qin sword soldiers were not prosperous, and most of the families did not attach as much importance to the generals as they did in the past. And the middle and lower-level officers who entered the Jiangyuan were not like before, and many of them were sent to the Jiangyuan by the major metropolitan protectorates as deviant.
It can be said that although the Jiangyuan is not the Jiangyuan that gathered talents thirty years ago, there will never be a shortage of buried talents in it, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can always get a few useful talents. For Li Ang, who is short of people in his hands, Cao Anmin's appointment is the best for him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Li Ang accepted the new position given to him by Cao Anmin, with Jiangyuan, coupled with the Xishi Wharf controlled by him, it can be said that he will want people and money in the future, and after three years of accumulation, he will have a greater certainty of going to Haixi Europe in the future.
"What Longen, you will open up a second battlefield for the empire in Hercynian in the future, and no one will do anything in your hands." Cao Anmin looked at Li Ang. His heart was full of feelings, and the dead Emperor Diwen was willing to let Li Ang leave Chang'an in the future. originated from an agreement with his friend Xia Houtang in the past.
Thirty years ago, Xiahou Tang was still the most feared general of Daqin in Rome, and Emperor Wen was still the crown prince, and the assassination incident did not happen. At that time, Xiahou Tang had the idea of leaving Xiahou's family because of Feng Siniang's mother and the family, and he wanted to establish a vassal state in Haixi, and the Tomb Protector Army in Longcheng Jerusalem suppressed Rome and Persia for Great Qin. At that time, his dead father agreed with his friend's idea, saying that when he became the emperor in the future, he would make him a prince and king, and let him watch Rome for Daqin in Haixi, and if Rome was not honest, he would teach Daqin a good lesson.
"Qing Yuan, in the future, I will also appoint you as a prince and king in Haixi, and take a good look at Rome for Daqin, if he is not honest, he will teach me a good lesson." Cao Anmin looked at Li Ang, thinking of his father, Emperor Wen's past, and couldn't help but say so.
"Ahh Listening to Cao Anmin's words, Li Ang was stunned, he didn't expect Cao Anmin to suddenly make him a prince and king with him, to say that this prince king, when Great Qin opened the country, Emperor Taizu once asked his generals, who is willing to build a country in a foreign country, it is the princes of Great Qin, and they can get the king, but at that time, none of the generals were willing to leave their homeland and become a prince and king in a foreign country thousands of miles away, and the matter was over.
Seeing that Li Ang was puzzled, Cao Anmin told his father's past, and he said with a smile, "I want to emulate the first emperor, if you can really build a country in Haixi in the future, and defend Rome for the Great Qin, what does it matter if I make you king, let's make this agreement at this time, and it will be a good story in the future." β
Cao Anmin stretched out his hand as he spoke, looking at Li Ang. Li Ang hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out his hand and made this agreement with Cao Anmin with a high-five. No one knew that this seemingly casual agreement at this time completely changed the pattern of Eurasia in the future.
When Li Ang walked out of the palace gate, he still looked at his hands with Cao Anmin who high-fived and swore an oath, opening up a second battlefield for Daqin in Haixi, establishing a country, and clamping down Rome, such an oath may be too nonsense, Li Ang laughed, but don't men sometimes have to fight for such an oath? Regardless of whether you succeed in the end or not, as long as you do your best, then you will not have a negative vow.
In the evening, when Li Ang told the news that his title of general Zhengxi had been withdrawn, Li Yanzong, the little man who was most loyal to him, jumped up, and the lord removed such a big obstacle for the emperor, but in order to appease those families, he cut the title of the lord like that, it was really...
Looking at the subordinates who were angry for him, Li Ang laughed, "Anyway, our family is not a big family now, I am just a school captain now, if anyone wants to leave, I will not stop him." β
"Lord, Yan Zong is the only one in his life, if you drive Yan Zong away, Yan Zong can only thank himself for the great kindness of the Lord in the past." Li Yanzong was the first to kneel. Then Cen Ji also jumped up and shouted, "Which white-eyed wolf wants to go, leave now, but if I meet him next time, I will beat him so much that he doesn't even recognize his mother." β
"How can a man who is a son of man turn his back on his father, and in such a case is not as good as a pig or a dog?" Li Cunxiao and Li Cunzhi also knelt down.
"If there were no generals, I would still be doing nothing in the logistics department of the Ministry of War, waiting for death in front of official documents." Huang Yuan also knelt down on one knee, and then Dugu Xiao also knelt on one knee like Huang Yuan, and said to Li Ang, "Without a general, I may die on an unknown mountain like other dart players one day, without even a corpse." β
"Who wants us except the general." In the full hall, Helian Bobo, Er Zhurong and Xue An, who were still standing, laughed loudly, and also knelt down on one knee together, although they considered themselves Han Chinese, but in the eyes of those families in Chang'an who paid attention to blood, they were outsiders after all, and how could they be reused like Li Ang, their fate was tied to Li Ang from the beginning.
"Master, the housewife said that it was time to eat." Trist, who came in from outside the hall, looked at the kneeling people in the hall, was stunned, and looked at Leon, "Master, what is this?" β
"Get up all, from today onwards, you are all my Li Ang's family, and I will definitely not fail you in the future." Looking at the people on the ground, Leon said loudly, he didn't expect that his words would attract everyone like this, which really surprised him.
The people on the ground stood up, and they followed Leon out of the house, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, they sat around a round table full of food, like a real family.
Unbeknownst to Leon, his unintentional words gave him a family that truly belonged to him, and many years later, this family was called the Golden Family by the white people of Hercy.
