Chapter 286: The Princess Who Ran Away from Marriage
"Tell me, what's your name, who sent you to assassinate me, if you are honest, I can give you a chance to live, or you will suffer. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Looking at Zuo Chuang in front of him, Duan Jian didn't feel very angry on his face, after all, these killers were like weapons in the hands of soldiers, killing innocent people or invading enemies, just looking at whether the person who used it was good or bad, so Duan Jian was just a little curious, after all, in later generations, he had seen too many of those ruthless or amorous assassins in movies and television, and now that he finally saw real people, how could he not take a good look.
Hearing Duan Jian's question, he looked up at Duan Jian carefully, and found that Duan Jian's eyes were not angry, but all curious, Zuo Chuang swallowed a mouthful of saliva, moistened his throat, and asked with some doubts, "Really, as long as I tell you everything I know, you are really willing to spare my life." ”
No wonder Zuo Chuang is so weak, when a person almost dies, the idea of living is much greater than that of ordinary people.
"Hmph, you dog, what kind of person is my Langjun, how can he deceive you into a low-level assassin, you are also considered lucky, if you meet my Langjun, if you change to so-and-so, you will have been dismantled a long time ago." Seeing that Zuo Chuang didn't trust Duan Jian, Duan Mu, who had long been dissatisfied in his heart, couldn't help but snort angrily.
Although Duan Mu's words were quite ugly, Zuo Chuang had a trace of excitement in his heart, and his hope of living increased a little, in order to be able to live, he hurriedly told all the things he knew, and even many hearsay news was also told by him, for fear that the news he leaked would not carry enough weight, so that Duan Jian would lose interest in himself, and finally give himself a 'click'.
Although Zuo Chuang didn't know much, the news he revealed still made Duan Jian and the others shine, whether it was the structure of the "Heavenly Dao Sect" or the actions in the "Heavenly Dao Sect", and most importantly, they finally took control of the big man of the "Heavenly Dao Sect", Ding Mian, the hall master of the Qinglong Hall.
As a top assassin, Zuo Chuang is not given for nothing, before accepting the task, he will investigate his employer, no matter what else, at least he must know whether his employer has any money to pay him, if he kills someone, but he can't get the money, wouldn't it make people laugh off his big teeth.
Therefore, it is very unfortunate that Ding Mian, who often cooperates with Zuo Chuang, was sold to Duan Jian by Zuo Chuang in exchange for his chance to live.
"'Saion lost his horse, but he didn't know if he was blessed', I didn't expect to escape a death catastrophe, but I got such a harvest, the ancients did not deceive me." After squeezing out all the information that Zuo Chuang knew, Duan Jian asked the officials to detain him in a cell.
"That's right, I originally thought that the 'Heavenly Dao Sect' could run rampant throughout Jiangnan, and it should be a well-organized sect, but I didn't expect it to be divided inside, in this case, it was able to allow them to expand their power to this extent, and the officials in Jiangnan were really incompetent." Zhou Xing, who had been watching coldly, couldn't help but complain.
Hearing Zhou Xing's words, Duan Jian grinned and sneered a few times, he was understandable about Zhou Xing's dissatisfaction, Zhou Xing himself is a relatively talented person, but his personality is a little extreme, if this kind of person meets a strong boss, he will become a good helper, if he meets an incompetent person, it will stimulate the unwillingness and arrogance in his heart, originally in history, why did he choose to snitch to get the qualification for promotion, it is nothing more than looking down on those officials above him.
"Hehehe, the officialdom in the south of the Yangtze River is indeed too erosive, if it is placed in the north, I am afraid that this 'Heavenly Taoism' will be exterminated before it has developed, but this is not the point, the point is that we finally know some of the circumstances of the 'Heavenly Taoism' now, so that we will not be led by their noses, and even we can find a way to let them mess with themselves, and then we can take advantage of the fisherman." Duan Jian said with a faint smile.
........................
In late August, the weather was already quite cool, and after the heat of summer, people were relatively calm, not only people, but even the Yellow River, which had raged all summer, became calm.
As the hardest-hit areas of this year's disaster, the river, the south, the river, and the north can be described as mourning all over the wilderness, not only the grain planted has not been harvested, even the kind of seeds have all been lost, even if the flood recedes now, the people in those disaster areas are still not relaxed, after all, there is no harvest and no food, no food, how can they survive the next days, especially in the cold winter, there is no food, except to be starved to death, frozen to death, they have no second way to go.
Numbness, sorrow, weeping, whining, river, south, north, everywhere, although the cannibalism has not yet occurred, but the discerning people know that if there is no food, such a day is not far off.
"Da Da Da, Da ........."
Just when all the people affected by the disaster were confused for the future, a burst of rapid horses' hooves from far and near to the outside of Zhangjia Village, if it was the past, hearing the rapid sound of horses' hooves, there were people with status or status in the village, they had already rushed to meet them, and now, those who had status or status, they had already moved their families to the city, and the rest of the people were poor and about to starve to death, and everyone was unmoved except for numb expressions.
"The imperial court has decreed that the people who have suffered disasters in the river, south, river, and north can leave the local area and go to Jiangnan to eat."
As soon as the sound of the horses' hooves stopped, a rough sound came from outside the village, and probably in order to make everyone understand, the neighing man deliberately walked around the village, shouting more than ten times in a row, before it was over.
"What you said is true, the imperial court really allowed us to go south to the south of the Yangtze River to eat."
Just as the knight was about to leave, a hoarse voice sounded from behind him, probably because he had not spoken for a long time, it was not only hoarse, but also sounded jerky.
If you change someone, you may be nervous when you hear this voice, but the knight on horseback didn't take it seriously at all, in addition to the fact that he has become accustomed to this sound, there is also a reason that he is not an ordinary knight, but has been on the battlefield, on the border army of the Turks, this time because of the urgency of the matter, the imperial court will use the way of eight hundred miles of urgency, let him ride a fast horse, and transmit the will of the imperial court to all the affected villages and towns in the river, south and river, and north.
Turning around, he saw a middle-aged man who had met and appeared, covered in dirt, with only two eyes full of longing, staring at him non-stop.
"Hahaha, don't worry, this is an edict issued by His Majesty personally, and all the officials above the court have agreed, as long as you are willing, the court has decreed that all the states and counties along the way have prepared food, and you will be provided with food and drink all the way, until after Jiangnan, you will be distributed to various states and counties for food, and even the court also said that as long as you are willing to stay, it will also give you land in the local area, so, don't wait here to die, prepare to go south." The knight said with a big smile on his face.
After saying these words, the knight quickly beat the horse away, leaving only the middle-aged man who asked, as if he was stunned, and kept muttering in his mouth, "The court has agreed, let us go south to eat, let us go south to eat, we have a way to live, we finally have a way to live, child, hurry, hurry, pack up our things, let's go south, let's go south." ”
After saying this, the middle-aged man rushed to a dilapidated thatched hut not far away like a three-year-old naughty boy who had gotten candy, shouting and tossing constantly, and some clever villagers around him also ran quickly to their homes, ready to take away all the things that could be packed, and leave this place, although after the washing of the flood, all the things they could use were left, but even so, they had to choose a few things to take away.
For a while, the disaster-stricken place, which was originally a sigh and lifeless, became instantly vibrant because of the arrival of this news.
............................
Although the disasters in the river, south and north are very extensive, compared with the entire Tang Dynasty, it is not a big deal, and after there are ways to deal with it, in addition to the corresponding departments in the court, other officials have their eyes on the palace.
Since June, the Tang Emperor Li Zhi, who has been frail and sickly, fell ill again, this time the onset was different from the past, even if all the imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital tried all their means, it was after three days and three nights of diagnosis and treatment that Li Zhi woke up again.
As a centralized struggle for power, every time there is a change of dynasty, it is the most prone to turmoil, so at this time, all officials dare not have the slightest change, and the entire lively Chang'an City has become much deserted because of this incident.
"Lady, lady, can you go, if you go, the slave will definitely be beaten to death by the queen of heaven." In the back garden of the palace, at a remote small door, the person serving a eunuch is being only pulled by a person dressed as a palace maid, and it can be seen from the title of the palace maid that the person serving the eunuch is definitely not as simple as an ordinary eunuch.
"Moshu, you hurry up, the time for the guards to change the guard is only a quarter of an hour, if the palace can't leave the palace in this half a moment, it will be difficult to leave in the future, you have grown up with me since you were a child, do you really want to watch me marry someone I don't like at all, be depressed all my life, and finally die gloomily." The man who served the eunuch spoke.
It can be heard from the gentle and treacherous voice that she is not a real eunuch, but a daughter, she is no one else, she is the youngest daughter of the current Tang Emperor and Queen Wu Zetian, and the most favored child, Princess Taiping, Li Lingyue.
As the favorite daughter of the current emperor and the powerful queen of heaven, Li Lingyue should be windy and rainy, how could she pretend to be a eunuch and get out of the palace.
The matter is simple, the current Tang Emperor Li Zhi, although he has a cowardly personality, is not incompetent, otherwise he would not have continued to maintain the Tang Dynasty after the death of the first generation of male lord Li Shimin, and even did things that Li Shimin could not do when he was alive, such as completely destroying the Goguryeo Kingdom and pacifying the Turks.
But with the aging of the body, Li Zhi's body is getting weaker and weaker, Li Zhi also knows that he is not far from death, when ordinary people die, there will be some regrets, and Li Zhi, as the emperor, everything he can get in the world, he has already gotten or has gotten, the only thing that makes him a little confused is that his most beloved daughter has not yet married.
Therefore, before he died, Li Zhi wanted to see his most beloved daughter have a good home, since Li Zhi had this thought, how could Wu Zetian, as a mother, object, after layers of selection, finally determined the candidate for the horse, Li Zhi's nephew, Xue Shao.
Not only has the candidate been determined, but even the wedding date has been determined, just on October 15, which is Li Zhi's birthday.
Everything is ready, but there is only one thing that everyone did not expect, that is, Li Lingyue has no interest in Xue Shao at all, if you change a person or a different dynasty, 'Parents' order, Matchmaker's words, whether you agree or not, as long as your parents choose well, you will marry me, but unfortunately, it is now the Tang Dynasty with the strongest women's rights, and Li Lingyue is not an ordinary person, as a woman who has been recorded in history, the first woman to leave her husband, even if the current Li Lingyue is not the decisive Princess Taiping later, she is very dissatisfied with her parents' decision.
Since she was not satisfied, she resolutely disagreed, and after thinking of various ways, she still did not let her father and mother change their minds, she thought of a very dangerous and extreme way, secretly set aside the palace, as long as she did not marry someone she was not used to, even if she didn't become this princess, she was willing to be an ordinary woman.
"Woo woo woo...... lady, don't leave, if the queen of heaven knows that you sneak out, our slaves and maids will definitely be beaten to death, or you take the slaves and maids with you, otherwise, the slaves and maids have no other way but to die." Looking at Li Lingyue, who was full of anxiety, the palace maid named Moshu pulled her to death and cried without letting go.
Looking at the rather miserable ink book, although Li Lingyue's face was full of anxiety, her heart was full of hesitation, she couldn't understand her mother's temper, just like the ink book said, if she let her mother know, she quietly escaped from the palace, not only the ink book, I am afraid that all the palace maids and eunuchs in her palace will be beaten to death, and those people are loyal to her, many people are like the ink book, they grew up with her since childhood, if she is really beaten to death by her mother, even if she escapes from the palace, In this life, I will be uneasy in my heart.
