() There is a very large private house in Anxingfang, west of Chang'an Xingqing Palace, which is inconspicuous from the outside, but it is neatly planned and luxuriously decorated inside. If the past days were aside, the owner of this mansion would never have been so low-key, he would have let the whole family know about his existence, but because the purpose of his appearance here was not simple, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he still endured this idleness and became a hermit in the red dust.

He is the left servant of the Tang Dynasty, Cao Guogong Guo Liang.

The left servant has a very high official position, but he has no real power, of course, Guo Liang does not disdain to do anything in the court, he is the underground king of Chang'an, and the power in his hands is far greater than those purple robes and gold belts in the court. All he wants is a title, and what he values is the legitimacy that the servant and the prince of the country bring him, nothing more.

Gu Xi is the old man of the Guo family, he has always followed his sister Guo Ren, this person is loyal, but he is a traitor, he has been pampered for so many years, in addition to being able to do things, in addition to being able to do things, the ability in the boudoir also adds a lot to him. Guo Liang is not interested in caring about what man his sister is good with, just as his sister does not care which concubine he slept with in the palace today, and which concubine he will play with tomorrow.

"Your Majesty is about to return to the capital, and it will be about this winter."

"Or all? You've drunk too much what. Why should he still do it? ”

"That's what Madame meant, and the little one can't understand."

"Ma'am? She wants to be a wife again, and Mo Qi's supernatural power is now rich, but she has become someone else's husband. ”

"Madame, Your Majesty may not be good for the Duke of the Kingdom this time."

"So what, I'm still afraid of him?"

"If you're not afraid of 10,000, you're afraid of what happens, it's better for Guogong to keep some gods."

"Got it, go ahead."

Guo Liang sent Gu Xi away with a straight face, but his heart was tense for a while, he and Guo Ren had all kinds of discord, in the end, they were also brothers and sisters who broke bones and tendons, one was lost, one was prosperous, his words did not have to doubt the truth or falsehood, and he did not have to suspect that her insight was wrong.

"Da Lang, the time has come, which lady to call to accompany you tonight?"

Guo Liang's housekeeper Guo Dai brought a tray with silver flowers inlaid with paint, and a bunch of embroidered scented bags were placed on it, which were all personal things that the concubines in the palace dedicated to him. The world is chaotic, and even the Queen Mother of the Fourth Palace is not at peace, how can their lives be good? In the current predicament, clinging to the powerful in order to find a place has become their only choice.

As the king of underground Chang'an, Guo Liang is really going to be windy and rainy now, and there will never be a shortage of women around him who take the initiative to dedicate. After reading all the flowers, he realized a Tao, if playing with women is just playing with their beauty and body, then it is the realm of the bottom, playing with their so-called talents, and it is not very clever, the most clever is to play with the person behind them, the more unattainable that person, the more afraid you are, the more you can have a sense of achievement.

Guo Liang's mansions in Chang'an City are not only eight out of ten, why do you like this one next to Xingqing Palace, it is because next door here is the palace of the Tang Dynasty, which is convenient for him to secretly communicate with the song.

Every evening before the palace door is locked, he will send someone to take the sachet he selected straight into the Xingqing Palace, handed over to the eunuch in charge, he wants to see whoever he wants to see obediently, not only to the palace, but also to carefully dress up, wash himself clean, smoke incense, and try his best to meet him, slap him.

If anyone doesn't know each other and doesn't do his heart, he will give her a **** notoriety, so that she will be ruined and discredited, and there will be no place to bury her when she dies.

Guo Liang looked at the pile of sachets and smiled bitterly, how could he still have the heart to think about which concubine he was fortunate to be happy with tonight, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was going to return the capital, if he knew that he Guo Liang secretly slept with the woman in the palace, he would definitely be unloaded.

Although this thing is done secretly, there is no impermeable wall in the world, and someone will always poke him out.

He is not afraid of the Tubo people, dares to bargain with the Emperor of the Pei family, and can also talk and laugh with Li Mao, but he is a little scared of Li Han, who will be weak if he does too much of this ridiculous thing.

"Tonight...... I was tired and slept by myself, and in addition, I invited several leaders, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhang, and I had something to discuss with them. ”

Guo Dai didn't dare to talk nonsense, answered yes, and slowly retreated, but muttered in his heart: Guo Liang just said "invite" several leaders and gentlemen to come over and "discuss" things with them, what's the matter, usually say call so-and-so, ask him something, or explain something, why is he so polite today, is there something big about it?

Guo Dai carefully arranged, invited several leaders of the Four Seas Society, and several staff gentlemen, arranged the place of the meeting, and then retreated to the side with interest, leaving two ignorant little guys to serve tea and fruit snacks, if these little guys can't win the trust of the big boss in a few years of waiting and become among the cronies, they can only be dealt with secretly.

They know too many secrets to make it impossible for them to go out alive and talk nonsense.

Stealing a void, Guo Dai went out to visit Gu Xi, Guo Liang only changed his mind after seeing him, there is a way to solve the bell and must tie the bell, this bell person is Gu Xi. Gu Xi was drinking with the two singers in his arms, up and down his hands, busy and happy, he and Guo Ren are indeed beyond the ordinary master-servant relationship, but it is precisely because of this that he feels depressed, with Guo Ren's strength, he doesn't even dare to have a wife and concubine today. And Guo Ren has always had the world in mind, and he is willing to take pity on him from time to time.

Hearing that Guo Dai had arrived, Gu Xi hurriedly pushed away the singers, wanting to hide them, but it was too late, this was Guo Dai's territory, he said that he would come, and no one had already entered the house without a sound.

Gu Xi smiled awkwardly, and was about to send the two singers out, Guo Dai smiled: "It's okay, both of them have strict mouths, they won't interject indiscriminately, and they won't go out to talk nonsense when they listen to it." ”

After sitting down, he asked: "I heard that the lady is going back to Beijing, but I don't know when she will come back, the old residence has been deserted for a few years, and it needs to be redecorated by someone, and a few boys and girls need to be arranged to go in to warm up and go to the evil." ”

Gu Xi smiled: "Just clean up, don't have to work hard to decorate, just leave when you come, and there will be no days to live around." ”

Guo Dai frowned, and was about to ask for an understanding, but Gu Xi raised his glass to invite him to drink, drank a glass of wine, and said: "If you come, you will leave, this is certain." Madame doesn't care, the dust doesn't get wet, and there's nothing that comes and goes. Please pay attention to my brother, several of the people who came back this time are not very good-tempered, and they are poor and crazy, and it is inevitable that their hands and feet will be unstable after entering the city. You tell me? ”

Guo Dai's face changed greatly when he heard this, he thanked him repeatedly, got up and went back to the servant's house, Guo Liang was still discussing with several leaders and Zhu and Zhang's two strategists, he didn't want to wait longer, he immediately summoned his two sons, and told them to go back and sell their floating wealth, pack up their bags, and prepare to move out of Chang'an City at any time.

On this day, Li Jiang, who stayed in Xijing, also received a distinguished guest, stayed in the study and talked secretly for an hour, did not leave a meal, and sent out from the back door with his henchman scholar, and he did not come forward. After the guests left, he closed the door of the room, sat on the desk and drafted a proclamation, requesting that he personally escort the grain and grass to Longxi to receive the army of Jixi.

The seal was quickly replied, and the emperor allowed him to go to Longxi in person, and instructed him to bring more soldiers and horses and pay attention to safety. Li Jiang summoned the generals of the left-behind mansion to read the edict in person, thanked him in the direction of Luoyang, and immediately ordered the subordinates of the government to pack up and go west together.

Li Jiang left Chang'an on the front foot, and the news that the emperor was going to return the capital spread, and a few families were happy and a few worried, but more Chang'an residents did not believe this rumor.

Guanzhong is already Li Taishi's territory, Li Taishi is now fierce, just defeated the invasion of the grassland barbarians, stabilized the border pass, it is the time to show his strength, how can he tolerate the emperor's return to Luan at this time?

But I believe that if Li Mao has an accident, there will be great changes in the world. The world is complicated, chaos is frequent, and if you see more, your knowledge will naturally be higher. Some people say that Li Taishi's troops were defeated under the city of Shanzhou, and the 100,000 army was swallowed by the first capital. Li Jiang, who was originally attached to him, knew that something was wrong, so he ran away in advance, and also called it to escort grain and grass to help fight Longxi. Imagine that he stayed behind in Xijing, and personally escorted grain and grass to Longxi, besides, even if he worked hard, why did he bring so many generals with him, the entire left-behind mansion was empty, and all the people ran away, doesn't this explain the problem?

This speculation soon had a strong corroboration that Guo Liang, the big leader of the Four Seas Society and the largest snake in Chang'an, suddenly left Chang'an City and his whereabouts were unknown.

Guo Liang, Shenlong sees the head but not the end, there are not many people who have seen him, and his whereabouts are more difficult for outsiders to guess, but his housekeeper Guo Dai is a cannibal fireworks, there are not a few people in Chang'an City who know Guo Dai, Guo Dai suddenly left Chang'an City a few days ago, and his two sons also disappeared together, leaving only the housekeeper at home.

Although Guo Dai is a slave with people, it is not something that ordinary people can see after climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, but Guo Rong, the housekeeper of his family, is not so mysterious, and the residents of the same square often see him The old man with three or five gangs on the street to buy goods, bald, bulging, good at drinking, love nonsense, and good at teasing women, and there is not much difference from ordinary people.

It is said that his wife and children moved away early in the morning, and he himself packed his baggage and was ready to run away at any time.

Peek at a leaf and know the autumn, the descendants of the family are so depressed, can the owner of the inner house still be at ease?

Guo Liang of the Four Seas Society relied on his power to sleep with the palace maid's concubines, who hated the most, naturally the emperor immediately, if the emperor was the first to ask for his life, could he not run?

If it weren't for this, why did he run away, he didn't run when the Tubo people came, the Pei family brothers arrogated to be the emperor, and he didn't run, Li Taishi occupied Chang'an, he was still as safe as Mount Tai, why did he run now, isn't this the lice on the bald man's head obvious.

Those who were afraid of the emperor ran away, or were about to run, but those close to the emperor were looking forward to it, and Chang'an City waited in horror in the center of the violent friction between the two forces.

The mystery of victory and defeat was soon revealed: on November 1 of the second year of Huichang, Li Han issued an edict to return the capital to Chang'an.
