The short-term tranquility in Longmen City did not make Li Xiang feel relaxed, on the contrary, the more he felt that the real chaos was coming.

Since Li Xiang returned to Longmen and sent a team of 500 volunteers to Luoyang, Yang Guang never gave Li any will. Li Xiang faintly felt that there was something wrong, but after thinking about it, he couldn't figure out what was wrong, so Li Xiang also left it behind, except for asking the shadow who stayed in Luoyang to stay in the accident, he didn't care about him anymore.

However, Li Jiancheng's performance during this time made Li Xiang a little surprised.

At first, Li Xiang felt that a rich son like Li Jiancheng, coupled with the fact that he was also the eldest son of the Duke of Guo, it was still a little difficult for such a person to surrender easily. Don't look at how jealous Li Jiancheng seems to be of Li Xiang, in Li Xiang's view, it is a superficial compromise, and to put it bluntly, it is pretending.

So Li Xiang didn't arrange anything for him except to ask him to write a letter to Li Yuan, just told him to recuperate, and by the way, he also left him in Li's mansion and sent someone to secretly observe.

Li Xiang stayed in the barracks for a while and returned to the Li Mansion, but he didn't expect that the first person to greet him was Li Jiancheng. What's even more strange is that Li Jiancheng is unusually respectful to him, saying that it is better to call it rules and regulations, and it is better to call it groveling if it is ugly.

Li Xiang didn't think that Li Jiancheng really gave in, but he didn't stretch out his hand to hit the smiling person, Li Xiang could only temporarily be false and wronged, and went to ask Wuwu in private.

The answer given by Wu Wu was that Li Xiang couldn't come back to his senses. Wuwu first took out a reply letter from Li Yuan to him, and then told him that Li Yuan had sent him a whole thousand taels of gold, which really blinded Li Xiang's eyes.

In this era, silver is rare, let alone gold, even if Li Xiang robs the emperor once, there is no thousand taels of gold!

Opened Li Yuan's reply, Li Xiang only breathed in the cold air, good guy, is Li Jiancheng your son Li Yuan, how do you feel like he was raised by his stepmother.

Most of what Li Yuan said in the letter was Li Jiancheng's badness, and some of them said that Li Jiancheng's advance and retreat were unfounded, which was detrimental to the public style of the Tang Dynasty, especially for Li Jiancheng who brought troops into Luoyang without permission, and even went on the line, and was characterized as a rebel and traitor. Li Xiang was stunned when he saw it, how could this be?

The second half of the letter is a thank you and a request for Li Xiang. Thanks to Li Xiang for taking the risk to intercede for Li Jiancheng in front of Yang Guang, and even more thanks to him for saving Li Jiancheng's life.

In the end, he used sincere language to say that Li Jiancheng, a rebel son, would not be productive if he stayed by Lao Tzu's side, and only after following the young generation with ambitions and ideals like Li Xiang would he be successful in the future. So he begged Li Xiang to take Li Jiancheng in no matter what, and help him correct his mistakes, when Li Jiancheng studied well, when he would be welcomed home in the Tang Guogong Mansion, otherwise there would be no such son in the future.

What's even more exaggerated is that in the end, he also said that if Li Jiancheng still had something wrong with Li Xiang, Li Yuan didn't mind Li Xiang beating and scolding him, and he could even hand it over to Yang Guang to punish him. As for Li Jiancheng, all the expenses in Li Xiang's house were paid by the Tang State Mansion.

Li Xiang was really at a loss, where is this! How do you feel as if you have been cheated by Li Yuan, and there is no place to reason!

All in all, this matter is very unreliable and full of conspiracy. Fortunately, Li Xiang is also a big-hearted person, and after carefully guarding for two days, he didn't find anything unusual about Li Jiancheng, so he didn't think about him anymore, because something more tricky than this one had happened.

Yang Guang finally gave Li a decree, to the effect that Li Xiang is a loyal and patriotic young man, from the performance of the five hundred volunteers, it can be seen that having such a young talent is the blessing of the imperial court, is his Yang Guang's luck, so after the mission of His Majesty Yang Guang's northern tour is over, he will set off to return to Jiangdu, Li Xiang is a great hero who must accompany the king, and tell Li Xiang to pack his bags, hurry to Luoyang, and go to Jiangdu together in a few days.

After receiving the holy decree, Li Xiang did not hesitate to call back all his think tanks, and several people hid in the study for a whole afternoon, and at night when the lights were in charge, everyone came out and hurriedly went to do their own things. Li Xiang came out last and looked up at the night sky after the snow, and let out a low roar from the bottom of his heart.

Li Xiang packed his luggage unhurriedly, but the shadow man had already sent a message to Wu Wu, saying that Yang Guang had no other actions on his side, and it was estimated that this time he asked Li Xiang to go south because Li Xiang's approach moved Yang Guang, and he wanted to pull Li Xiang together to avoid the chaos in the north.

Li Xiang was really conflicted after listening to it, from the beginning Li Xiang's attitude towards Yang Guang was not what everyone imagined. The history that Li Xiang has studied tells him what kind of faint man Yang Guang is, how absurd and unscrupulous, how poor and extravagant, and even inhumane. As long as the brick family called the beasts of later generations mentioned the death of Sui, they would ruthlessly mention Yang Guang and fix him on the pillar of shame, and he would be addicted.

But since Li Xiang came here, the Yang Guang he saw was not such a person. The first time he met Yang Guang, Li Xiang's impression was that he was a good father. Jinyun's mischievous mischievous behavior did not make the anxious emperor feel troublesome, on the contrary, he used the greatest sincerity to leave Li Xiang as Jinyun's night shift.

Later, when he got along with Yang Guang, this person was not without feelings, nor was he so freewheeling, on the contrary, he couldn't help himself in many things. Not to mention anything else, just for a child of Li Xiang's age, Yang Guang had the courage to use him, and to be honest, people didn't suspect him at all at the beginning.

Regarding the national salvation plans proposed by Li Xiang, Yang Guang was able to resolutely support the public opinion, and from this point of view, Yang Guang was not a dumb monarch without a reason. On the contrary, Li Xiang really didn't hear many people say anything about Yang Guang's disadvantages.

There is also the Northern Tour, for an emperor who is in the world of Jiangnan flowers, whoever has nothing to do will go to the desolate and dangerous Saiwai. The constant harassment of the Turks and the disobedient ministers of the court were the main culprits who had caused the court to sink into the quagmire.

In the face of the gradually collapsing dynasty and the social status quo of the people's poor livelihood, Yang Guang could have sat in the south of the Yangtze River and commanded the chess pieces under him to charge into battle, but he resolutely chose to go north in person, which is a kind of courage and a kind of responsibility.

Yang Guang's northern tour is actually a formal warning issued by the core ruler of a huge dynasty to foreign barbarians, and those who offend our Chinese will be punished even if they are far away!

Of course, when it came to Yang Guang's murder of his father and brother, Li Xiang was not in the right position, and Li Xiang was not impressed. It was already a fait accompli when he came, and who dared to say this to him, so Li Xiang didn't have a bad impression of Yang Guang himself.

Li Xiang felt that the reason why such a Yang Guang and such a court could get to the point where they are now is not Yang Guang's problem to a large extent, but the masterpieces of those old things in the court, and the big forces behind the whole politics that stir up the world.

The descendants of the Eight Pillars of the Western Wei Dynasty and the disciples of the five surnames and seven families are the cancer of this country. Yang Guang just happened to appear in such a historical period, sitting on the high dragon chair, and if he was on the top now, it was estimated that the ending would be the same.

The reason why Li Xiang finally chose a path that was completely contrary to his original intention was selfish, but more because he didn't want the people to suffer from years of war. He was the one who knew what was going to happen in the next few years, and he couldn't change much, but he wanted to try to do something, even if it was just to end that troubled world for a year.

After thinking about it in a mess, he finally followed what they had discussed, and asked Li Jiancheng to send a secret letter to Li Yuan quickly, and asked Li Yuan to go to Jinyang with a large team of people and horses, the reason was that Yang Guang was going back to the south, and he was going to take Li Xiang with him, so Henan and Hedong would become a borderless land, and Li Xiang believed that after Li Yuan received such a letter, he would definitely not be able to hold back the lust in his heart and follow his rhythm.

In one case, he sent someone to send a message to Meng Jin's father, asking him to cooperate with him to give Yang Guang a twist, saying that the thieves in Hedong had gathered around Meng Jin again, and there was a great potential to attack the city, so he asked Yang Guang to send troops to rescue him quickly.

Everything that needs to be done is done, and the rest is a long wait, although Yang Guang said that he will leave soon, but it is not an easy thing for an emperor to leave for a long time. After going out for more than half a year, which of these officials in the north dared not to prepare some hearts for the emperor's old man, so he waited for nearly two months, and finally everything was cleaned up, and Yang Guang's holy decree came again.

is similar to what Li Xiang thought, for the choice of asking Li Xiang to follow him south or asking Li Xiang to stay to monitor Li Yuan and exterminate the bandits, Yang Guang of course chose the latter without hesitation, and also gave Li a secret decree that once Li Yuan has a heart of disobedience, as long as he dares to move, Li Xiang can cut Li Yuan first and kill Li Yuan as soon as possible.

In addition to talking about it, Yang Guang also generously left a batch of money for Li Xiang, nominally asking Li Xiang to rebuild Luoyang after being destroyed by Yu culture, but in fact, he didn't give Li Xiang a certain amount of activity funds, telling him to do things well?

There was also a small episode in the middle, originally Empress Xiao and Princess Jinyun were going south with Yang Guang, but Li Xiang did a good job of thinking for Princess Jinyun and told her to stay in Longmen, because soon Longmen will change greatly, and there will be a lot of fun things at that time. Jinyun couldn't resist the temptation to stay, so Empress Xiao could only stay.

In fact, Li Xiang knew that this might be the last time he saw Yang Guang, and in history, it was Yang Guang who never came out after returning to Jiangdu this time, and was finally killed by Yuwen and his son in Jiangdu. He really wanted to remind Yang Guang, but many things were not something he could change, so he could only do his best to obey the fate of heaven, and saving Jinyun and Xiao Hou could be regarded as worthy of Yang Guang's appreciation and promotion of him.

Of course, Empress Xiao is not as easy to deceive as Jinyun, it seems that this smart woman also felt something, and in the last period of Yang Guang's stay in Luoyang, Empress Xiao took Jinyun to stay by Yang Guang's side, reluctantly.

The matter of Luoyang was finally out of Li Xiang's control, but the other two things made Li Xiang a little helpless. Xu Maogong visited again, this time not secretly, but appeared in Longmen County in a bright and bright manner. The purpose of coming is also very clear, inviting Li Xiang to participate in the righteous deed.

Li Xiang was depressed, his current strength was not to mention participating in the righteous act, and before he could make a statement, he had already been eaten by the guys around him who were eyeing him, and there were no bones left. He had no choice but to politely refuse Xu Maogong, and finally even told him vaguely that now was not the time.

This incident made Li Xiang vigilant, why did the people from Wagangzhai come to him instead of looking for others, to put it bluntly, some of his thoughts still haven't been hidden, and it seems that he still has to be more low-key.

It's a pity that the more you want to be low-key, the more low-key you can't be, Yang Guang just set off for the south, and there was an amazing news in the south, Jiangling, Nanjun County, Hubei, Zhu Cang, the father of Bozhou City, gathered 100,000 people to rebel!

When this is not the main thing, the key is that this gang of thieves coerced 100 officials of all sizes in Nanjun and Chuyang County to rebel together, and among these officials happened to be Gao Shilian who returned to Luoyang from Lingnan and north. Who is Gao Shilian? The eldest grandson Wuji and the worry-free uncle, in other words, Li Xiang's future uncle, Li Xiang has to move if he doesn't move.

Another reason, Li Xiang clearly remembers that in history, Zhu Cang had a nickname called "Man-Eating Demon King", which is not fake, and it can be known from many historical materials that Zhu Cang really eats people!
