Tongguan is the eastern gate of Chang'an, the western capital, and its strategic position is very important. Therefore, the emperors of all dynasties have paid special attention to it, not only the city wall is strong, but the garrison yamen is also very magnificent. The pitch-black gate is located at the west end of Tongguan Central Avenue, echoing the Tongguan City Gate. At this time, all the residents of Tongguan had been evacuated, the sergeants were all over, and the garrison yamen had also become Gao Xianzhi's temporary residence.

Gao Xianzhi took Feng Changqing and walked straight into the garrison yamen. Gao Xianzhi's housekeeper Gao Fu saw the head of the house returning to the house and hurriedly greeted him.

"Gao Fu, if you go and invite the distinguished guests, just say that I have something important to discuss." Gao Xianzhi didn't stop and said.

"He hasn't gotten up yet," Gao Fu smiled bitterly, "The villain has already called three times." ”

"This bunny! Cover two, let's go there in person. Gao Xianzhi scolded with a smile. When that person came last night, Gao Xianzhi was dealing with military affairs. The wine and food were all together, and the two talked happily, drinking and chatting until the second half of the night. Gao Xianzhi rarely likes a person, and after the two of them were full, they worshipped, and Gao Xianzhi was twenty years older and became the eldest brother.

"Brother Xian, get up quickly. Big brother has something to look for you" Gao Xianzhi was a fiery temper, and the door of the room with both hands clanged.

"Big brother, spare little brother. The younger brother never drinks alcohol, and he was choked by the eldest brother yesterday. Besides, the shouting of killing on the wall of your city has continued for most of the night, so let me sleep a little longer. There was a lazy grumbling in the room.

"It's noon, how long are you going to sleep? If I don't open the door again, I'll kick it," Gao Xianzhi didn't care.

"Is it a gentleman's work to disturb people's dreams?" the house complained again, "It doesn't matter, I just do." ”

After a while, the door creaked open from the inside, and an unkempt young man stood inside the door, "Big brother, I'm hungry, let's eat." ”

Gao Xianzhi couldn't help but roll his eyes, "It's noon, don't clean your face quickly." Lunch was already prepared, and we talked while eating. ”

"When did the general have a younger brother so young?" The first time Feng Changqing saw that person, he wondered. Gao Xianzhi has a younger brother, but he is only two years younger than Gao Xianzhi. Who is this man?

"Feng Er, don't worry, this is the brother I just recognized last night, as for the identity of this person, you will know later" Gao Xianzhi and Feng Er sat at the dining table. The food and drinks were ready, just waiting for the young man.

"I've seen the eldest brother, I've seen General Feng." Soon after, the man arrived and saluted Gao and Feng. I saw that the man was slender, dressed in white, and there were faintly well-defined muscles under the white clothes.

"Your Excellency has seen me?" Feng Changqing didn't dare to hold it up, so he hurriedly got up to answer the salute.

"In this Tongguan, there is no one else who can sit at the same table with the eldest brother except General Feng," the man smiled slightly.

"How about my virtuous brother?" Gao Xianzhi was very happy and asked Feng Changqingdao.

"The general's virtuous brother has eyes like a torch, and he knows everything," Feng Changqing hurriedly said.

"Hugh is going to put a high hat on him, he is a figure better than a monkey," Gao Xianzhi waved his hand happily

"Brother Xian, this is General Feng Changqing." Gao Xianzhi got up and introduced the man.

"In Xia Li Mi, I have seen General Feng" The man saluted again.

"In Xiafeng Changqing, I have seen Mr. Li." Feng Changqing wondered even more, what kind of character is this Li Mi, and what kind of talent can make General Gao value it so much.

"General Feng may not know that my virtuous brother sat down with His Majesty a few years ago, and served in the court to wait for the edict of the Hanlin Academy, and was an official of the East Palace." Gao Xianzhi continued to introduce with a smile.

"It turned out to be Mr. Li, I saw Mr. Li below" Feng Changqing snorted a spirit, and hurriedly saluted again. Regardless of sitting with His Majesty and discussing the edict of the Hanlin Academy, after all, this is an old thing. He takes a fancy to the identity of Li Yu's former subordinate official of the East Palace, this is the teacher of His Royal Highness the Prince, a teacher for one day and a father for life, this is His Royal Highness the Prince.

"He only arrived in the middle of the night yesterday. Had a drink with me and ended up sleeping until now. Gao Xianzhi was very happy, "Feng Er, your business, eighty percent of you have to bother my virtuous brother." ”

"That's natural, please Brother Li Xian work hard." Feng Changqing said along the lines.

"Yesterday, I drank a meal with my brother until the middle of the night, and I didn't talk about business. Call you today, and we'll figure out what to do. Gao Xianzhi continued, "Come on, come on, the wine and food are going to be cold, let's talk while eating." ”

The three of them sat around the dinner table, pushing cups and changing lamps, chatting happily. Seeing that he didn't mention his own affairs for a long time, Feng Changqing was anxious, after all, it was his own life and death matter. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Feng Changqing finally couldn't help but speak first, "Where does the virtuous brother live now, what kind of position."

"I am in white like Brother Feng, and I have lived in Songshan for a long time" Li Mi woke up with a hangover, and after a few glasses of wine, his face was red and his ears were red, and his head was splitting. Seeing that Feng Changqing had opened the conversation, he hurriedly put down his wine glass.

Gao Xianzhi saw Feng Changqing speak, so he also put down his wine glass and listened carefully. Feng Changqing has been by Gao Xianzhi's side for 14 years, and the two have long been like brothers. Gao Xianzhi knew Feng Changqing's ability very well, and he also had a deep relationship with this general who had been drawn up by himself, and now he was on an equal footing with him. He didn't want his brother to be in a different place, and he didn't want Datang to lose a pillar of the country. Last night, he and Li Mi Qingmei cooked wine, sat down and talked for a long time. But he deliberately avoided the topic of Feng Changqing. It's not that he doesn't want to ask, but he thinks it's most appropriate to leave this topic to Feng Changqing to ask by himself.

"Oh? What do you think about the current situation? Feng Changqing was slightly disappointed, he didn't expect Li Yu to also be in white. He doubted Li Yu's energy, and asked cautiously tentatively.

Li Mi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and flushed the wine in his mouth, which was much more comfortable. "Brother Feng wants to ask His Majesty's opinion on the defeat of Luoyang." Li Mi understood Feng Changqing's intentions, and simply said clearly.

Feng Changqing saw that Li Mi directly stated his intentions and mentioned the matter of Luoyang, and his face was a little embarrassed. Li Mi also ignored him and continued, "To be honest, the defeat of Luoyang was unexpected and reasonable. What is unexpected. My Tang general can fight habitually, the sergeants are brave and invincible, the treasury is abundant, and the grain purlin is abundant. Pour out the strength of the whole country, take one country and one corner, and defeat, this is two. An Lushan, who relied on his whiskers to pat the horse and worship the official and the marquis, was able to defeat the world-famous general Feng, which was the third also. ”

Feng Changqing was red-faced by Li Mi at this moment, and he couldn't wait to find a hole to get into. Gao Xianzhi quietly pressed his arm on the side, signaling him to calm down and continue listening.

"What makes sense. Sixty thousand to 120,000 is also one. Fighting against a sergeant who has been on the frontier for a long time and can fight is two things. The thieves have been planning for a long time, and the soldiers of Luoyang have not become an army. With a hasty pawn against a long-prepared army, this is three also. ”

After Li Mi finished speaking, the room fell silent. Feng Chang's face was blue and red, Gao Xianzhi's face was like sinking water, and Li Yu's face was as usual.

"The matter of Luoyang has long been over, and what is going on now is serious." After a long time, it was Gao Xianzhi who broke the silence: "Brother Xian, let's talk about Tongguan." ”

"Marching and fighting, arranging the troops, and General Feng are all experts. Naturally, we know that Tongguan City is high and deep, with the Yellow River in the north and Qishan in the south. We must stick to this hurdle and leave no room for error. Li Mi didn't think about it.

"I naturally know this, but when will it be a head. Now that he has just lost the eastern capital of Luoyang, His Majesty is furious and has repeatedly issued orders to urge the troops. How to do it. Feng Changqing finally spoke.

"The art of war has clouds, one blow, then decline, and three exhaustions. The rebels have just captured Luoyang, and their momentum is in full swing, so they should temporarily avoid the edge and recuperate. What the rebels want at the moment is Tongguan and Chang'an, and they will definitely do their best to attack Tongguan. As long as Tongguan is not lost, and the rebels cannot be attacked for a long time, this is the place where the rebels will decline again and be exhausted. As for the matter of His Majesty's decree urging the troops, it belongs to the affairs of the court, and the affairs of the court will be solved above the court. Li Mi paused and looked at Feng Changqing, "I can't say that the solution to this court matter will be on General Feng." ”

Li Mi's brain hurts a little, this strategizing is tiring enough, you must know that you are so tired of labor and capital. Li Mi thought secretly. The decision to come to Tongguan was made by Li Mi himself. He knew that at this time in history, Gao Xianzhi and Feng Changqing's heads were going to move. He thought about it for a long time before this trip, and he knew that if he saved Gao and Feng, history would be changed by him, and he didn't know what to do. After a sleepless night, he figured it out. Since God has given me a chance to start over, I can't give up easily. Maybe God's original intention was to let labor and management change history. So, early the next morning, with a pair of dark circles under his eyes, he instructed Morley to inform His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of his original intention to protect the second general of Gao Feng, and he came to Tongguan by starry night. Anwar originally wanted to follow, but was persuaded by Li Migao's crooked reasoning and stayed on Songshan Mountain. He didn't want a girl to go to the trouble for the sake of the country, which would make a man look incompetent. He didn't want Anwar to be in danger.

"Brother Xian, don't entertain my brother. I'm a guilty body, how can I solve this court matter" Feng Changqing smiled bitterly.

"Does Brother Feng know his situation?" Li Mi's sudden words stunned Feng Changqing and Gao Xianzhi.

"Please give me advice" Feng Changqing quickly came to his senses and hugged his fist towards Li Mi.

"Brother Feng, do you know the person who Ling Cheng is over there? Can you know whether Ling Cheng made a false accusation after failing to ask for a bribe? Do you know that our majesty is very fond of eunuchs today? Li Mi looked at Feng Changqing, with a cold light in his eyes.

Gao Xianzhi's face became even more solemn, and Feng Changqing was stunned on the spot. They had thought that it would never be easy to understand, but they never expected it to be so serious. If his own guilt is added to Bian Lingcheng's false accusation, it may cause harm to the whole family.

"Brother Xian, this ····· Is there a solution? Feng Changqing's face was as pale as dirt, and he asked dejectedly.

"Brother Feng, don't be depressed. The matter of His Majesty's urging of troops and this matter that I just said are both matters of the court, and they need to be put above the court to settle it. That's why I said that the end of the Dharma should be on Brother Feng. Li Mi threw a comforting look at Feng Changqing.

"Brother Xian, let's talk about it, don't go around the bush." After being silent for a long time, Gao Xianzhi finally spoke.

Li Mi also knew that he couldn't sell Guanzi, so he confidently said eight words: "Go to Beijing to ask for guilt, and face the saint to present his feelings."

"Your Majesty ordered the two of us to be stationed in Tongguan, will Feng Er be allowed to enter Beijing?" Gao Xianzhi cares about chaos.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince" Li Mi smiled slightly and said softly.

"Oops!" "Oops!" Gao and Feng exclaimed at the same time. Feng Changqing fell to his knees with a puff, "Brother Xian's life-saving grace, my brother is unforgettable, if necessary, he will not give up." ”
