Chapter 414: There is a change in the capital!
........................
At the same time, Lu Chen, who came out of the Holy City, looked up and looked ahead. rane?n? ???.? r?a?n?? En'net was not far away, and a group of Tibetan soldiers were waiting quietly there. On the ground behind this group of Tibetan soldiers, there were more than a dozen boxes.
After seeing Lu Chen come out, the general on the other side asked in the language of the Tang Dynasty, "Your Excellency is the city lord?" ”
When this person saw Lu Chen nodding, he gave Lu Chen a salute and said, "I apologize to Your Excellency for the previous incident." Lord Zampu specially sent him to bring 500 good horses and more than 50 pieces of gold and silver utensils to the lord of the city to apologize."
Hearing this, Lu Chen's eyes lit up, and now he has a lot of troops, but as one of the strongest cavalry in the Tang Dynasty, Lu Chen still has none. It's not that he doesn't want to do it, but because the Tang Dynasty's control over war horses is too strict, and Lu Chen can't buy them even if he has money. Therefore, after hearing that five hundred good horses had been sent, Lu Chen's heart suddenly became a little excited. He immediately looked at the team of more than 100 people not far away, but he didn't see the so-called good horses at all.
He asked with some confusion, "Where are the good horses you are talking about?" He looked around and didn't see a horse at all, so he couldn't have put all the good horses he said were in those dozen or so boxes!
Hearing Lu Chen's inquiry, he saw that the Tubo general who was communicating with Lu Chen was a little embarrassed and said, "When we passed through the mountain range just now, the horses couldn't come up at all, so we could only put the five hundred war horses outside first, and ask the city lord to see what to do!" ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen looked up at this Tibetan general, and two essences shot out of his eyes, and he asked in a cold voice, "You didn't set a trap outside, and then trick me out!" ”
Hearing Lu Chen's words, he saw that the general hurriedly assured, "The city lord really misunderstood, we really couldn't get the war horse up, so we had to put it outside." If the city lord doesn't believe it, you can send someone to get it, you don't need to go there yourself."
Hearing this, Lu Chen glanced at this Tubo general deeply, and then laughed and said, "Just kidding, since you Zampu are so sincere, I naturally won't have any doubts anymore." You go back and tell you Zampu, all the secrets I know will be stuffed in my stomach, just let him rest assured! ”
After speaking, Lu Chen asked people to escort out the two Tibetan messengers who had been arrested before. At this time, Lu Chen smiled and said, "These two people, we will return them to you." As for the relevant commitments, I promise by my own personality that I will not tell anyone else, don't worry! ”
After hearing Lu Chen's words, the Tibetan general immediately saluted Lu Chen and said, "Since this is the case, then I will leave below." Please also ask the lord of the city to keep his promise" After speaking, the Tibetan general led more than a hundred Tibetan soldiers and walked towards the outside of the valley.
When these people left, the captain of the city guard walked up to Lu Chen, and said with some surprise, "City Lord, I feel that the people in Tubo are a little strange this time, I don't know what conspiracy they are playing."
After hearing the captain's words, Lu Chen also nodded and said, "I also feel that something is not quite right in Tubo this time. After all, the Tibetan army has always been very vindictive, and they are very fond of invading other countries. Otherwise, the junction between the Tang Dynasty and Tubo would not have been fought all year round. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Chen suddenly thought of the previous piece of information, his eyes suddenly lit up, and said, "I seem to know why they compromised this time, do you remember the information we accidentally got before?" ”
Hearing Lu Chen's inquiry, the captain nodded subconsciously. Immediately afterwards, he saw that his eyes also lit up, and asked, "What does the city lord mean is that they have been busy with the big things on the full moon night next month recently, so they don't have time to worry about us anymore?" ”
Lu Chen nodded, and said, "It should be like this, otherwise, with the character of the Tubo people who hold grudges, I am afraid that a large army would have been sent to encircle and suppress us a long time ago."
At this time, the captain asked again, "But, when they are done with the so-called big things, I am afraid that they will come to encircle and suppress us again." When the time comes, what should we do? ”
Hearing this, Lu Chen sneered and said, "If I am not mistaken, next month's major event will probably sweep the entire Tang Dynasty, and then they will not have time to care about us anymore."
Hearing this, the captain glanced at Lu Chen with some shock, he really couldn't think of what a big thing it was to sweep the entire Tang Dynasty.
Lu Chen didn't say much, after all, he was just guessing. As for this major event that happened on the night of the full moon, what it was, Lu Chen didn't know. However, no matter what major events will happen on the night of the full moon, Lu Chen must return to Chang'an City.
Just today, he received a message sent by Song Cai. It is said that Yang Guozhong wants to integrate the major families in Chang'an City, and even the big military families like Lu Fu must be integrated together.
After learning the news, Lu Chen knew that he couldn't stay here anymore. After all, the Lu Mansion only has that little guard now, and no matter how strong they are, I am afraid they will not be able to resist the invasion of the Yang family. Because Lu Yi is far away in the north, and Lu Chen's eldest brother Lu Yan is a literati, as for his mother Li Lan, although she used to be a female general, she is also very strong now. However, after all, she was only a woman, and in this Tang Dynasty, the status of women was destined to be lower than that of men. Of course, Wu Zetian is an exception.
All in all, there is no one in the Lu Mansion at all now, and Lu Chen must rush back, otherwise, once Yang Guozhong attacks their Lu Mansion, the consequences will be unimaginable. Lu Chen had already lost his relatives once in his previous life, and Lu Chen didn't want to feel that feeling a second time.
So, after getting the news. Lu Chen immediately handed over the affairs in the Holy City, as well as the matter of the cavalry that had just been formed, to the captain and deputy city lord of the city guards. He immediately rode a fast horse and ran in the direction of Chang'an City.
When Lu Chen returned to Chang'an City, he felt a hint of change as soon as he entered the city gate. Although the streets are still full of people, it is rare to see people from large families. Even some of the gentlemen on weekdays are almost invisible now.
After perceiving this change, Lu Chen immediately stopped staying and immediately headed in the direction of the landing mansion.
When Lu Chen came to the door of the Lu Mansion, he saw that the Lu Mansion had also strengthened its vigilance, not only did the guards increase in front of the mansion. From time to time, guards patrolled around the mansion. And after these guards saw Lu Chen come back, their eyes lit up, as if they saw a dependence.
