Cui Wenli nodded slightly and said: "Mr. Zhang is reasonable, I am willing to go to Luoyang with Mr. and take Luoyang for King Chen!" ”

Seeing this, Li Chongfu sighed and said, "Then there are two Lao!" ”

……

A group of sergeants with Xuantie and Mingguang armor stood in the post house in the northern suburbs of Chang'an. Although this team of sergeants www.biquge.info under the scorching sun, their eyes are still as cold as frost and snow. In the post house, everyone from the post house to the side room of the outer courtyard gathered, although it was hot, but no one dared to go out half a step.

The dozens of sergeants who were guarding the gate and returning to Beijing from the front line were full of evil spirits, and the knives in their hands seemed to smell of blood.

After being driven to the ear room by this group of thugs, Yi Cheng explained to his subordinates: they are all honest, and the old general Xue Ne, the governor of the Metropolitan Prefecture and the general of the left guard of the inspection school, will rest in the inner courtyard, and whoever disturbs him will wipe his neck by himself.

Xue Ne has guarded the frontier for many years, and he has made meritorious deeds, and there are few people in Chang'an City who don't know about him. But compared to his father, Xue Ne's reputation is much worse.

Xue Ne's father is Xue Rengui, a famous general of Zhenguan in the Tang Dynasty, who has fought for the Tang Dynasty for more than 40 years, defeated nine surnamed Tiele, surrendered Goguryeo, defeated the Turks, and made outstanding achievements.

All the sergeants under Xue Ne's command were also silent, since the mysterious carriage drove in and drove straight to General Xue's bedroom, the sergeants never looked back, the carriage should have been a young man, but who was that person? The sergeants did not dare to look at it, nor did they dare to think about it.

Xue Ne was full of gray hair, and he had already passed the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, although he was wearing armor, he did not have the slightest sense of bulkiness. He poured a cup of tea with his own hands and brought it to the young man, his movements were extremely light and quiet, but they seemed to be extremely casual.

After pacing a few steps, Xue Ne sat down and said to the young man: "Master Zhang, it may be that the old man is lonely and unheard, and it is the first time that the old man has seen him like this." ”

As he spoke, Xue Ne carefully looked at the young man in front of him. This young man named Zhang Bao'er is a celebrity around His Majesty, although Xue Ne is far away in Bingzhou, he still has heard a little about Zhang Bao'er's style and style. dared to argue with the head of the dynasty, Chu Ke, and this courage alone made Xue Ne have a good impression of him.

"Your Majesty has Your Majesty's difficulties, and I will talk about General Yu in detail later!" Zhang Bao'er smiled faintly and said, "Let's ask the old general to take the order first!" ”

Xue Ne nodded, and was about to get up, but was held down by Zhang Bao'er: "The matter is urgent, the etiquette on those scenes will be waived, and the old general will directly accept the order!" ”

Zhang Bao'er's words were sincere and bold, and he had the taste of a man in the barracks, which made Xue Ne have a good impression of him.

After Xue Ne took the holy decree and read it, his face became heavy.

After a long time, he raised his head and asked, "Lord Zhang, when are we leaving?" ”

"Tomorrow morning!"

"In such a hurry?" Xue Ne was shocked.

Zhang Bao'er said a little apologetically: "The old general has been tired of saddle horses all the way, and he should rest for two days, but the king of Qian is ready to raise troops at any time, if we can get to Luoyang earlier, we will have more certainty, and the situation will not get out of control!" Please forgive me, the old general! ”

Xue Ne nodded and said: "The old man still understands the principle of the overall situation, Lord Zhang, it's so decided, tomorrow morning, we will set off for Luoyang!" ”

On the second day, Xue Ne waited for Zhang Bao'er to come to the post house, and went to Luoyang to co-preside over the crusade against King Chen. But Zhang Bao'er did not come, but sent someone to send a letter to Xue Ne.

Xue Ne looked at it and was speechless for a long time.

An Bozhu asked strangely, "Xue Shuai, what's wrong, what about Master Zhang?" ”

An Bo Note is Xue Ne's lieutenant general, although he is a Hu general from Anguo in the Western Regions, he speaks fluent Tang dialect. An Bo Zhu was known for his bravery in the army, and was loyal to Xue Ne, and had been following Xue Ne on the battlefield for many years, winning Xue Ne's trust.

Xue Ne sighed and said: "King Qian sent someone to make an incident in Luoyang, Lord Zhang got the news, he set off last night, and hurried to Luoyang to stop this!" ”

An Bozhu was taken aback: "Master Zhang doesn't have a single soldier in his hands, how can he stop this when he goes?" ”

"Alas! I don't think so! Xue Ne sighed and said, "Although he has asked for the Holy Decree from His Majesty, these people have already made up their minds to rebel, and it is unknown whether the Holy Decree will work or not!" ”

"So what do we do now?" An Bozhu asked.

Xue Ne waved his hand and said: "Vice General An, I order, hurry up and set off, and rush to Luoyang as soon as possible to help Lord Zhang, I hope it will be in time!" ”

An Bozhu received the commander's order and immediately ordered all the entourage to march quickly towards Luoyang under the starry night.

……

In the early summer of Luoyang City, a sudden rain made the city suddenly cold. Pedestrians have long since been wiped out by the heavy rain, and even roadside shops have closed early. The once noisy and bustling streets have become quiet, and the rain has washed the roads and washed away the hustle and bustle.

There was a muffled thunder in the distance, and the sky was getting darker and darker, and the rain feet were getting denser, knocking on the surface of the umbrella, making a sharp sound like a drum.

Walking on the street, a dusty man in a green shirt listened to the sound of the rain as he walked, and tucked the hem of his robe into his belt.

The few people behind him were holding the reins of the horses, and they also looked like dusty servants. Their steps are still the rhythm of the square, and they are not chaotic at all.

There was some earthy smell in the air, which rushed into the nose of the man in green shirts, and he couldn't help but sneeze. Rubbing his nose and increasing his footsteps, the water splashed and made the perpetrator grin with a little mischievous pleasure.

The man in the green shirt was Zhang Baoer, and he arrived in Luoyang in only one day and one night.

Zhang Bao'er turned his head and instructed Yan Gu, who came with him: "Gu'er, go and find him, we are waiting at the inn!" ”

Yan Gu agreed, turned around and disappeared into the rain.

The group found an inn and settled down, and Zhang Baoer entered the guest room under the guidance of Xiao Er. The sky suddenly darkened, as if from dusk to night in an instant. Then a dazzling lightning bolt swept through the ground, and the thunder suddenly rose, and the thunderbolt was deafening, splitting a thick trunk of the old tree in front of the door, and even the earth trembled. At the same time, the hidden windows were blown open by the strong wind, and there was a thudding sound. The whistling air currents rolled up the paper, pens and other objects on the cabinet: the room was full of flying.

Zhang Baoer shook her head helplessly, Xiao Er quickly closed the window, and then cleaned up the house.

Not long after Xiao Er left, Yan Gu rushed to the inn with a person in the rain.
