Chapter 455: Let's Go! North

"Duan Langjun, we meet again."

"Jia....... Jiachen, you are a princess, how can you be a princess? ”

Looking at the extremely familiar beauty in front of him, Duan Jian couldn't understand how the little lady who was guarding in the desolate mansion at the beginning turned into a princess, and most importantly, this princess is still the famous Princess Taiping in history.

Such a bloody plot was actually touched by him, even if his heart was strong, it collapsed into pieces at this time.

"Hee-hee-hee-hee-........"

"Hahahaha........."

Duan Jian didn't know if this was true, but he knew that from Jiachen, or Princess Taiping Li Lingyue and Shangguan Wan'er's extremely excited faces, he could see that his expression at this time must be stupid.

"Previously, because of the special status, this palace couldn't tell each other, so I ask Duan Langjun to forgive me."

After laughing, Li Lingyue saluted Duan Jian.

"Ah...... No, no, no, the princess doesn't have to be like this, speaking of which, a certain can have today, thanks to the help of the princess that day, otherwise, I am afraid that even if a certain person is not buried in the wolf's belly, he would have been seriously injured and died, but the lower official will have to thank the princess. ”

Looking at Duan Jian who bowed to him, a trace of inexplicable grief flashed in Li Lingyue's eyes, but this grief came and went quickly, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Okay, okay, since the two of you are old acquaintances, then don't be so polite, besides, you will have to eat and live together for the next period of time, what are you waiting to get on the road, it's not too late to talk about it."

Looking at the two of them bowing back and forth, Shangguan Wan'er said a little impatiently.

"Hmm....... Yes, dare to ask the princess, have you ever ....... about the relationship?"

"Bengong already knows, and this time it was Bengong who took the initiative to ask the queen mother for consent."

Without waiting for Duan Jian to finish speaking, Li Lingyue said.

"Ah........ This, this is why, the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, a golden body, how can you go to that kind of desolate place, you know, the desert north of the land, since ancient times, the environment is extremely harsh, every day the wind and sand continue, full of eyes, except for a green grass and yellow desert, there is nothing else, why do you have to suffer this kind of hardship? Hearing Li Lingyue's answer, Duan Jian couldn't help but persuade.

Before he came in, Duan Jian didn't care about who went to kiss, although he also felt sorry for the little girl who went to kiss, but with his current status, he couldn't change all this, since he couldn't change it, he could only turn a blind eye ruthlessly.

But when he knew that this poor man was a life-saving benefactor, his mind changed greatly, no matter whether Li Lingyue was a princess of Taiping or not, he really didn't want Li Lingyue to be a good girl like Li Lingyue to be a victim of politics, running alone to the desolate prairie to live in the face of a group of barbaric aliens.

"The Buddha said, I don't go to hell, who goes to hell, I am the daughter of the queen mother, and others are also the daughters of other people's mothers, how can I sacrifice others for my own selfishness, so it has added countless sins to myself, besides, this palace was born as the palace master of Li Tang, every day of fine clothes and jade food, enjoy the best life, now the country is in trouble, whether it is the daughter of the father and queen mother, or the palace master of the Tang Dynasty, this palace should stand up, as long as I can exchange me for the peace of more people, even if I suffer some sins, why not."

Li Lingyue replied quietly with a faint smile on her face at this time, like a real enlightened monk.

Looking at Duan Jian's eyes in this situation, in addition to admiration, there was more helplessness.

With this kind of unique meeting, although the next few people talked happily, Duan Jian was always a little uneasy, and after only doing it for a while, he said goodbye to Li Lingyue and left.

"Sister Wan'er, why did he leave so quickly, could it be that he was tired of this palace."

Looking at Duan Jian's distant back, Li Lingyue, who seemed extremely happy just now, instantly became annoyed, her eyes were red, and she asked Shangguan Wan'er as if she was about to shed tears in the next moment.

Raised his hand and touched Li Lingyue's forehead, and repeatedly brushed the messy hair on both sides for him, Shangguan Wan'er said with a smile, "Silly Highness, you are usually so clever, why can't you see it, he is not tired of you, I'm afraid that since just now, he has been thinking about you going to the north to make peace, I'm afraid that now he is thinking in his heart, how to destroy your peace, if you don't believe it, you just wait and see." ”

"Ah........ Are you sure? Li Lingyue suddenly asked excitedly.

"Of course it's true, you, don't do anything next, just like you really want to go to the north and kiss, the slave believes that the stupid boy will definitely not let you go to kiss, when the time comes, you just need to act according to the plan, and the slave promises to make your wishes come true."

Shangguan Wan'er pinched Li Lingyue's face and said with a smile.

If it was in the past, if she was treated as a child by Shangguan Wan'er, she would definitely resist, but at this time, I don't know what I thought, her face was full of smiles, and her eyes were confused.

.................

On the third day of the third month of March, the Shangsi Festival

According to legend, this day is the birthday of the common ancestor of the Chinese people, the Yellow Emperor, therefore, in ancient times, this festival was also a festival that the official attached great importance to.

Of course, the commemoration of the Yellow Emperor is just a beginning, but the actual situation is that on March 3, the weather is no longer as cold as winter and early spring, the green grass begins to slowly recover, the trees begin to sprout, all kinds of small animals have also come out of the cave, people also leave behind the thick cotton clothes, change into relatively thin clothes, and go around to enjoy this good weather with moderate temperature.

On this day, outside the gate of Luoyang City, a pair of inconspicuous convoys slowly came out, thinking about the direction of the wharf.

Don't look down on this convoy, but if there are really discerning people who observe, you will find that in this convoy, whether it is driving the car or escorting the goods, they are all strong men, and it can be seen from the actions of those big men that they must be practicing people.

"Okay, father-in-law, mother-in-law, thirteenth uncle, Wanjun, you all go back, originally I thought that I could stay in Luoyang City for a while more this time, but I didn't expect that I couldn't hold it at this time, and I would make trouble for you."

Duan Jian said goodbye to Wang Bingkun, Wang Bingzhong and other people close to him.

Today is the day when Duan Jian left Luoyang City and went to the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate to take office.

Duan Jian went to the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate this time, although anyone with a discerning eye knew that he was belittled and left, but on the bright side, he was still promoted, so it stands to reason that when he left, there should be a ceremony, but because of Li Lingyue's existence, they went to the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate this time, and they could only go secretly, and even their identities had to be kept secret and not detected by outsiders.

Looking at Duan Jian who was kneeling on the ground and saluting to him, Wang Bingkun and Xue Jiaohong sighed in their hearts, they were extremely satisfied with Duan Jian, at a young age, they were already ranked in the imperial court, and they had achieved a position that others might not be able to reach for decades, and even helped the Wang family, so that the Wang family, which had been declining before, had a second spring.

"Hey, you kid, let someone say something good about you, a good life, but you have to toss around, it's good now, I can't stay in Luoyang City, now I'm going to go to the bitter cold place in Saibei, see how you still make trouble." Although Wang Bingkun was reluctant in his heart, he still reprimanded in his mouth.

"Phew, old thing, don't look at when or where this is, just talk about it at home, you are endless, extraordinary, you can go with confidence, Wanjun and Bao'er will be handed over to Wei Niang, and I promise that when you come back, they will be raised for you for nothing."

Compared with Wang Bingkun, Xue Jiaohong was not so polite, took Duan Jian's hand, and carefully admonished.

"Thank you mother-in-law, the child is not at home, all this will be entrusted to you and your father-in-law, as for the child, you can rest assured, no matter what, the child will not suffer." Duan Jian said with a smile.

Looking at Duan Jian's pretending to laugh, Xue Jiaohong also showed a smile.

Hugging the son who had already begun to recognize people, after whispering a few private words to his wife, the whole convoy slowly started with an order.

...........................

"Wan'er, did you say that the mourning family did the right thing or wrong this time, using their own daughter in exchange for rights, gaining more and losing more."

None of the people who passed slowly under the city gate noticed that there were people on the top of the city looking at them.

It's none other than the Empress Dowager Wu Zetian, who now controls the power of the entire Tang Dynasty, and Shangguan Wan'er is also accompanying you.

Hearing Wu Zetian's inquiry, Shangguan Wan'er hesitated for a moment before she arrived, "Niangniang doesn't need to blame herself too much, this is Her Royal Highness the Princess's own choice, no wonder Niangniang, besides, if you go to the north, you may not really stay there, if the princess regrets it, can't she come back?" ”

Having said that, Shangguan Wan'er had another thing in mind.

Before leaving this time, she took the time to meet with Duan Jian again, this time for only one thing, that is, to ask Duan Jian, no matter what, Li Lingyue could not be allowed to stay in northern Xinjiang and be close to the Uighurs, and Duan Jian also nodded and agreed.

It's just that this matter is too important, and it is impossible for Shangguan Wan'er to explain it to Wu Zetian.

"Yes, this is his own choice, life in the world, there are many things that are involuntary, Taiping's mind mourning family understands, but the mourning family also knows, it is impossible to do anything, since this is the case, it can only let her act, I hope she can do everything smoothly, peaceful, mourning family will be content."

Wu Zetian said with a smile on his face.

....................

The Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, also known as the Hanhai Imperial Palace, was under the jurisdiction of a part of Russia and all the lands of Mongolia in later generations.

The main target of the alien races, mainly the Tiele nine surnames and some Turkic tribes.

The purpose of the earliest establishment of the Imperial Protectorate in the Tang Dynasty was to garrison troops and facilitate the administration of these places where there were few Han people and many people of different races, and later slowly formed a kind of government agency.

Originally, the power of the Anbei Protectorate reached its peak during the period of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, when although the Mongolian steppe was occupied by the Eastern Turks, the Tang Dynasty had a strong army, and the Eastern Turks did not dare to provoke the Tang Dynasty.

After the death of Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty had a period of weakness, during this time, the Eastern Turks were ready to move on the Tang Dynasty, and later Gaozong Li Zhi appointed a few fierce generals, and after defeating the Eastern Turks, the Eastern Turks were honest for a while, but this ambition was like a weed, if he was not eradicated, he would never die.

Therefore, in the following period of time, the Eastern Turks rebelled repeatedly, attacked the border towns of the Tang Dynasty, and repeatedly negotiated peace with the Tang Dynasty.

It's a pity that, just like there will never be a shortage of fish in the ocean, there will never be a shortage of nomads on the grassland, the Eastern Turks are broken, but the Eastern Turks still have some remnants left, and in the following years, those careerists of the Eastern Turks once again tried their courage to rise again on the steppe with the help of the Tang Dynasty civil strife.

This time, Duan Jian nominally went to the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate to take office, but in fact, he served as the duty of the envoy of peace, which seemed extremely valuable, but for Duan Jian, he really didn't want to bear this responsibility.

Thinking about his previous life, even if he didn't like the peace policy of the Han and Tang dynasties the most, in order to show himself, he had to sacrifice so many innocent women, which made Duan Jian extremely ashamed, but now, he has become one of the people who were once disgraced by him, how can he feel good in his heart.

"Boom la la ........"

Standing at the bow of the boat, looking at the slowly flowing canal water, Duan Jian's heart was extremely unhappy.

This time, he went north to the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, Duan Jian first took a boat to Chang'an, and then rode a horse from Chang'an to the north along the official road, knowing Yulin Pass, so as to go directly to the current location of the Anbei Metropolitan Protectorate, the same city where the sea is located.

"The night is windy and turbulent, although it is already warm on this day, it is still a little cold, Duan Langjun is dressed so thinly, it would be a pity if he froze his body."

Just when Duan Jian was a little irritable in his heart, a delicate voice suddenly came from the side.

"Ah, Your Royal Highness Princess, why are you here, is it that the lower officials have disturbed you, or is there something inadequate on this ship."

Seeing Li Lingyue who suddenly appeared, Duan Jian was a little puzzled.

Looking at Duan Jian, who was respectful to himself, Li Lingyue, who still had a smile on his face before, suddenly became a little pale at this time, but he still barely held on and said, "Duan Langjun is not excellent, everything is fine on the ship, it's not that you disturbed the palace, it's just that the palace has rested enough in the cabin during the day, and I can't sleep at night, so I want to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect to meet Duan Langjun here to meditate, originally it wasn't like bothering Duan Langjun, but I can see that Duan Langjun is thinly dressed, the bow of this ship is humid, and the fog is thick, I'm afraid that Duan Langjun will suffer from the wind and cold, couldn't help but remind, hoping that Duan Langjun wouldn't mind. ”
