Looking at the red wheel falling westward, soon the moon hit the east, the gentleman on the road ran to the store, and the wild birds stayed in the forest! After talking about the four members of the Alonashun family, let's go back and talk about Wang Xuance and the four of them. Since that crescent moon hangs high, the night of the stars is towering and the queen is separated. The four of them disguised themselves as businessmen and ran in the direction of Datang. Because he was afraid of being pursued by the government, he did not dare to settle down in the bustling towns, and went to all the remote towns with few people to rest in the hidden inns for a while.

For three days in a row, he ran wild for more than 400 miles. On this day, it was dark, but they had never encountered a place to stay, and when the four of them were discussing where to go, they saw a dilapidated temple in front of them! So, as soon as they had done so, they decided to rest in the dilapidated temple for the night.

Pushed open the temple door, it was still a broken wall. The temple is not big, only four or five houses, except for the main hall, which is quite complete, the others are either overgrown with weeds or the roof is leaking.

The four of them tied their horses to the pillars of the side halls in turn, and let them eat the grass in the courtyard leisurely. Zhou Zeng casually closed the main door and found a wooden pole to block the door; Seeing that everything was cleaned up by the big guys, the four of them entered the main hall to rest.

The main hall of this dilapidated Buddhist temple is a brick and wood structure, except for the dignified god Shakyamuni in the middle, the other Guanyin Arhat statues are all crooked, not only full of dust, but also full of spider webs.

However, the exception is that the straw under the gable wall is pressed neatly, which also makes the floor of the main hall look a little neater. After a careful inspection, they found that the Buddha statue of Sakyamuni was also quite clean, and the incense table in front of the Buddha statue was also sprinkled with some fresh incense ashes. All this is very different from those Arhat and Bodhisattva statues. And these unique scenes seem to tell that there are often people staying here and worshipping from time to time......

Although the borders of the five Indians are hot and steaming during the day, there is also such a trace of cold at night. So, Zhou Zeng touched a few sun-dried tree lumps from the outside, found some soft straw, took out flint and fire sickle, and with a few simple blows, the red flames rose like this.

The four of them sat around the bonfire, and they also held back their hearts, and they never had any extra words to each other. After Zhou Zeng sighed, he took out a few dry cakes he had brought with him and roasted them on the fire. After a while, it was fragrant, and the room was full of the fragrance of cakes; In an instant, it whetted their appetite.

Xiao Liu took the lead in grabbing one, stretched out his hand and handed it to Wang Xuance: "Big brother, you eat first!" ”

"I'm not hungry, you can eat first," Wang Xuance said casually to Xiao Liu. At this time, Xiao Liu looked at Wang Xuance, and did not push it any further, so he gnawed directly in a low voice.

After a while, several dry cakes were baked by Zhou Zeng on the outside and tender on the inside. They nibbled on dry cakes with the cold water they had brought with them. Although the cake is delicious, the mood is heavy, so the food is difficult to swallow.

But seeing this Chen Maocai gnawing hard, he said to them: "Big brother, we have been gone here for a few days, and we should all be safe." According to the current itinerary, in another twenty days, we will be out of these five Indian borders. ”

"Yes, big brother, I really want to return to our Datang at this time; Damn, bring up 20,000 black armor troops, and kill him with a river of blood. Shame on the snow! Zhou Zeng said majestically with Chen Maocai's words.

"I will follow you, even if I break my bones!" Xiaoliu also nibbled on the dry cake with difficulty, showing his due posture.

Although the three of them are very eager for revenge. However, at this time, Wang Xuance seemed to be thoughtful; It's just, staring at this, this burning bonfire, slowly breaking the dry cakes, little by little to the mouth, as if in a daze, as if thinking about this......

"Big brother, what are you thinking?" As soon as Zhou Zeng and Chen Maocai met, they opened their mouths to ask. Seeing that he still didn't react, the three of them looked at each other. Xiao Liu then pushed Wang Xuance next to him: "Big brother, what's wrong with you?" ”

At this time, Wang Xuance reacted, and still said slowly: "It's nothing, just thinking, what should we do!" ”

"Big brother, in my opinion, we will return to Datang directly, and I believe that Your Majesty will definitely send troops to exterminate this gang of traitors. Damn, we have not seen any strong winds and rains in the Tang Dynasty over the years, haven't all those countries in the Western Regions been pacified by us, not to mention these five small countries in India! Zhou Zeng said to him with a big grin.

"At first, I had the same idea, but at this time, it seems to feel very inappropriate!" Wang Xuance said to them seriously.

Chen Maocai asked in a puzzled tone: "Big brother, what does this mean?" ”

So, the three of them also pricked up their ears and listened to Wang Xuance's words: "If we return to the Tang Dynasty and face this great humiliation of the envoys, from the good side, Your Majesty will definitely send troops to help." But the problem is that our Datang is thousands of miles away from these five Indias, and the road to the envoy is quite bumpy, not to mention leading an army of tens of thousands of people, the supply of grain and grass, and the fighting spirit of the soldiers are all an unpredictable result. Because this front is too long, if the supply of logistics grain and grass is cut off, it will definitely lose all its money and even destroy the whole army. In other words, it is best to be able to win, if you can't win, wouldn't it be even more destructive and make this Alonashun more proud. ”

In response to Wang Xuance's detailed remarks, the three of them also heard the truth, and felt that it was such a truth. So he nodded his head again and again and said "yes".

But seeing this, Wang Xuance said again: "As an envoy of the Tang Dynasty, the upper represents the emperor, and the lower represents the thousands of people. Not only did it fail to fulfill the mission entrusted by His Majesty, but it added a lot of burden to the country. Thinking about the worst, if you return to the Tang Dynasty and face the leisurely mouth of the imperial historians, how can you justify it clearly? First, there is no evidence, and second, there is no physical evidence, just relying on the statements of a few of us, it is really unconvincing!

In the end, we are greedy for treasures, and we lose the Tang Dynasty system; Or is it that this foreign king covets treasures, seeks wealth and kills people, it is all inexplicable. At that time, if they really get entangled to this point, if they convince Your Majesty, we will be guilty of a great crime. Even if Your Majesty cherishes us and others, and we can be safe and sound, but what should we do with these brothers who are still trapped in Qunu City? So, all of a sudden, it feels like these things are very tricky! ”

In the face of Wang Xuance's analysis of just the right doubts, what direction should things go? couldn't help but rush to the hearts of the three of them......

The editor said: Dear friends, the book is basically half written, and it has not been irrigated since the beginning, and it will not be four or five million words at every turn, and about 1.05 million words in three volumes. The purpose of this is: big things are not confused, small things are clear. Because of the problem of the subject matter of this book, it may not conform to the context of the Internet and has not been greatly promoted; If you really like this book and the characters in it, I feel that my writing attitude is okay; I hope that I can move my fingers and share it with the circle of friends, so that more people can see this book, understand the real historical figure of one person destroying a country, and understand the diplomatic situation in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. Appreciate......
