Chapter 194: Gao Changgong



Wanzhou, known as the Western Regions, due to the trade of the Silk Road, its prosperity and the heart of the world in the Guanzhong region, and Jiangnan and called the world's financial resources, but Wanzhou merchants and Jiangnan merchants are always not right, because Wanzhou merchants are a firm Continental Army faction, since Confucianism came to power thirty years ago, although Daqin is still the world's hegemon, but due to large-scale disarmament, and weakened the control of the Silk Road, from 20 years ago, Wanzhou merchants had to pay taxes to Persia again, which made Wanzhou merchants suffer huge losses.

In fact, since then, Wanzhou merchants have always wanted to deal with Confucianism, and when the Great Qin completely deposed Confucianism and restarted Legalism a year ago, Wanzhou merchants began to use their vast financial resources to support the expansion of the army, and successively stopped business on the Silk Road.

Now the most talked about after tea and dinner in Wanzhou is when Daqin will fight with Persia, for Wanzhou people, the Silk Road is Daqin's, but also Wanzhou's, to tax those Persians, is a shame, from Emperor Taizu Taizong's westward expedition, when will Wanzhou people tax those countries on the Silk Road, that is, twenty years ago, those Confucian literati came to power, so that they suffered this huge shame.

Thinking of those high-minded Jiangnan merchants, the Wanzhou merchants were angry and didn't fight anywhere, and what was it to take out 100 million gold beads to the Daqin fleet, but they took out a full 300 million gold baht to expand the army for Daqin.

In the teahouse, what Li Ang heard the most was that the people of Wanzhou took out 300 million gold baht to expand the army of Daqin, which was more than the merchants of Jiangnan and merchants from all over the country combined, when talking about these. Those Wanzhou people naturally removed the business word in the Wanzhou merchants, as if they also had their share of the donated land in the 300 million gold baht.

Fame and fortune are the most moving! Li Ang took a sip of tea. Dropped the tea money. "300 million gold baht, Wanzhou people are really rich!" Walking out of the teahouse, Murong Ke, who was accompanying him, couldn't help but say.

"300 million gold baht is not much, as long as Daqin cripples Persia again and dominates the Silk Road, they will save more taxes than these small money." Leon smiled. Merchants are the most important to practical profits, Daqin fought Persia, for them, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, they will support Daqin's war against Persia, and they are not afraid that they will not pay.

"Are you done with tea?" On the street, Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, who had bought large bags of things with Li Cunxiao and them, saw Li Ang and Murong Ke and walked over quickly.

"Something bought?" Seeing that the Thirteenth Taibao was full of things in his hands, Li Ang looked at Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, "If there is anything else that I haven't bought." Then let Ah Chi and Ah Xiao accompany you to buy. ”

"Almost." Feng Siniang said with a smile, "I didn't expect Wanzhou people to be quite bold." Just now we mistook a few Wanzhou people for Haixi people and fought with them! In front of her own people, Feng Siniang is still her usual boss lady.

"You're in a fight!" Li Ang looked at Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, and then asked, "You didn't break people, did you?" He wasn't worried about his wife at all, not to mention Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang. Just the Thirteen Taibao who followed them were enough for those Wanzhou people to drink a pot.

"It's okay, they're sturdy." Feng Siniang replied with a smile, "After the fight, they invited us to drink, but we were overwhelmed by me and Fengshuang, Wanzhou people are very interesting." While speaking, on the street behind Feng Siniang and them, a few Wanzhou people who walked crookedly appeared, their faces were red. After they saw Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang, they shouted from afar. "Sister Feng, we'll invite you to drink another day!"

"Sister-in-law is amazing." Murong Ke looked at Feng Siniang, and then at the happy Wanzhou people in the distance, and couldn't help but say.

"What is this, I want to be old..."Feng Siniang almost shouted out the old lady again, "When I opened the inn back then, I didn't see any scenes, these Wanzhou people are nothing." ”

Thinking of the time when he first met Feng Siniangdi, Li Ang couldn't help laughing, and then went back to the post station with everyone.

At night, in the courtyard of the post station, Li Ang looked at Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang and said, "When will you go back to Chang'an?" ”

Feng Siniang and Lin Fengshuang were silent, they really didn't want to part with Li Ang, but they knew that their husbands had a lot of things to do, and they should not be a burden to him as wives, and after a while, they raised their heads.

"After we send you to the river, we will go back to Chang'an." Feng Siniang replied.

"When you go back, bring Roselle with you, she shouldn't go to the battlefield." Thinking of Yuan Luoshen, who had killed many people in the grassland, Li Ang couldn't help but say, he didn't want the people around him to go to the battlefield to face those cruel things.

"Luo Shen she learned swords, just to protect you, you let her go back, for her, it is tantamount to negating all her efforts." Lin Fengshuang looked at her husband, "Let her stay, she won't be a burden to you." ”

"I never regarded Roselle as a burden, I just didn't want to see her kill for me, she should have her own life." Looking at his wife in front of him, Li Angdi's voice was low, and when he thought of Yuan Luoshen, his brows furrowed.

"To Roselle, you are her life!" Feng Siniang said quietly on the side, "So let her follow you!" ”

Leon fell silent, and it was a long time before he raised his head and said, "Okay, I'll let Roselle follow me." ”

In the quiet courtyard, Yuan Luo Shen walked out of the shadows, she looked at the departing figures of Li Ang and Feng Siniang, looked at the broken crescent moon above her head, and muttered to herself, "As long as I can follow you, Luo Shen is willing to be your sword for the rest of my life." In a low voice, Yuan Luoshen looked at the double swords he was holding in his arms, and his eyes were full of happiness.

The long night had passed, and it was just dawn, when Li Ang had already gotten up, and after washing, he went straight to the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate. In an inconspicuous room, he met the chief. Looking at Li Ang who came in, the chief handed the emperor's secret decree to Li Ang.

After reading the secret decree, Li Ang knew why the chief minister's face was so solemn, and the prince went out of the palace to practice, which was really a dangerous thing.

"Don't reveal this secret to anyone." looked at Li Ang, who had returned the secret decree. The chief said in a deep voice, and he looked at Li Angdi's gaze

Relaxed. But in the end, he decided to let Leon in front of him know something

"When Your Majesty was young, he was conspired against on the battlefield, and you know about it." The chief's eyes suddenly became fierce, "But until now, we haven't found out who wanted to assassinate Your Majesty back then, this has always been Your Majesty's heart disease." ”

"This time the prince is nominally out of the palace for training. In fact, it is to bring out the person. The chief looked at the secret decree on the table, and his gray eyebrows fluttered like the wings of an eagle, "The safety of the prince must not make the slightest mistake." ”

Li Ang's heart tightened, he knew that the chief would never tell him this for no reason, the biggest possibility was that the chief wanted him to protect the crown prince, this is a very tricky matter, with the power of the emperor and the chief executive, he could not find out the details of that person, which shows how terrible that person's power is.

"You are the person that Your Majesty has taken a fancy to. I also believe in my own vision. The chief's gaze was fixed on Leon's face, and his voice was extremely deep.

"You've seen the appearance of the prince. This time, the prince will go to the United States with you as a staff officer of the White Tiger Festival Hall. As he spoke, the chief's gaze shifted to the secret decree, "The prince doesn't know that you know him, you just need to pretend that you don't know when the time comes." ”

"Xia Guan knows." Looking at the chief, Li Ang replied in a deep voice, he understood the weight of the burden on his shoulders this time.

Look calm. Li Ang, who was not moved at all, nodded in chief, the reason why he entrusted the matter to Li Ang was because of his calmness, no matter what happened, he would not let him panic.

"On this trip to the United States, you and the prince are in the open, and in the dark, I will allocate a team of military kings to protect the prince." The chief looked out of the room, when the door opened and a man entered.

The King of the Army. Leon's pupils tightened when he heard the name. 'The king of the army is out, the ghosts are frightened! 'The most mysterious troops in the Black Cavalry Battalion, according to legend, each of them has the strong force of a captain-level general, and each of them is a cold-blooded soldier with a heart like stone, they are the strongest troops in Great Qin, the real strongest.

"This is the High Commander, you guys get to know each other!" Looking at the man who walked in, the chief said to Li Ang, every commander of the military king team has a dual identity, except for the seven army king teams outside, and the five army king teams of Daqin, they are usually in each capital to protect the mansion, and their identities are a mystery, except for him and a few people, no one knows them.

Li Ang looked at the commander of the army in front of him, this is an out-and-out beautiful man, looking at the person in front of him with a beautiful face and a slender figure, Li Ang was a little surprised, but he didn't show it on his face, and calmly reported his name, "Li Ang." ”

"Gao Changgong." The man who walked in gave his name, his voice cold, but it was taken for granted.

A trace of astonishment flashed in Li Ang's eyes, he didn't expect that the man in front of him was actually the commander of the Beiting Metropolitan Protectorate and the trapped camp, and he didn't expect that he was also the commander of the military king team in addition to that.

"The High Commander will follow you in secret, and they won't make a move until they have to." Looking at Li Ang, the chief said in a deep voice.

"Xia Guan knows." Leon replied, his instincts telling him that the commander of the army in front of him was a formidable master.

Gao Changgong looked at Li Ang, who was a few years younger than himself in front of him, and remembered what Gao Huan had said to him, "He Li Ang is an unpredictable person, maybe you will think that you are better than him, but in the end, you will find that you are wrong." ”

After watching Li Ang exit the room, Gao Changgong looked at the chief who was sitting, "My uncle is right, he is an incomprehensible person. ”

"You think he's good, too?" The chief looked at Gao Changgong in front of him, as the youngest military king in the history of the military king team, this beautiful man's vision has always been very high, and few people will get such an evaluation from him.

"I heard that he learned the 'Great Thunder God Sword Technique', and he was on par with Ran Min." Gao Changgong thought of what he had learned, and a chuckle appeared on the corner of his mouth, "If you have the opportunity, I want to learn and see if he is qualified to become the thirteenth military king." ”

"Why, your Grand Commander is also optimistic about him." Listening to Gao Changgong's words, the chief asked with some surprise.

"What he has done recently, even we may not do well, and the Grand Commander has always valued wisdom and strategy much more than martial arts." Gao Changgong said in a deep voice, and then a cold glint flashed in his eyes, "But if he can't even pass my level, no matter how powerful his wisdom is, he can't." ”

"I don't think he will let you down." Listening to Gao Changgong's rather arrogant tone, the chief laughed, "But you'd better not do things after you go to the United States, otherwise, even if your commander pleads, I won't buy it." ”

Gao Changgong didn't speak, he knew that the chief in front of him was serious, "I won't play with His Highness's life." With that, he walked out of the house.

"The Thirteenth King." After Gao Changgong left, the chief groaned, he thought of the emperor who was far away in Chang'an, could it be that the emperor really planned to support another high gate to balance the current family.

At night, Li Ang was in the courtyard, holding a black giant sword, thinking back to his perception of the killing sword on the battlefield for most of the past six months, he always felt that something was missing inside, but he couldn't say it.

Thinking of that time, Ran Min showed him the Great Thunder God Sword Technique, Li Ang suddenly had a bold idea in his heart, he remembered that Ran Min said that their sword tricks and knife techniques were all derived from the axe skills of Cao Tuo, the fierce general of infantry warfare in the founding era, and that General Cao Tuo used a double axe, maybe the Great Thunder God Sword Technique and the Great Thunder God Sword Technique were two-handed blades.

"I don't know what will happen if I use both swords?" Leon muttered to himself, his grip on the sword tightened, and suddenly he looked at the scabbard, picked it up with his left hand, and then began to wave it with both hands, making it not very fast.

Suddenly, Li Ang stopped, the weight of the scabbard was too light, he put down the giant sword in his hand, broke off two branches, one hand made a sword move, the other hand made a sword trick, after trying a few moves, he changed the trick of his hands, the right hand is a knife, the left hand is a sword.
