Chapter 1142: The King Flees and Stays

Although he has been listening to and believing and being stupid and confused all these years, Li Longji has been the Son of Heaven for so many years after all, and he doesn't know that Chang'an City is not just floating in people's hearts, but surging with a treacherous atmosphere. Since the appearance of the stone monument that has lost his morality, all kinds of miraculous signs that slander him have appeared one after another, and this qiΔ“ has reached its peak after An Lushan's rebellion. If he is twenty years younger, no matter how Yang Guozhong and others persuade him, he will definitely take the lead and use his years of prestige to turn the tide, but now it is too late.

There is no turning back from the bow, and if he does not make a painful decision, he will be forced to the edge of the cliff sooner or later by those with ulterior motives!

Therefore, for Yang Guozhong's Jianyi, after careful consideration, he actually agreed, but repeatedly instructed him to keep it strictly confidential and not let others know about it for the time being. And he himself ordered someone to summon Chen Xuanli, who had gone to arrest An Sishun but was in vain, and was ordered by himself to think about it behind closed doors.

In his opinion, when Chen Xuanli was still a junior officer, he dared to follow him to launch the Tang Long coup, wiped out Princess Taiping's henchmen, and forced Li Dan to hand over power, but he has always been cautious for so many years, neither like Wang Maozhong and Ge Fushun who are arrogant in seizing power, nor as sharp as Liu Youqiu Wang Ju, he has always done his duty, and this time it is very appropriate to use his subordinates. However, when he confessed Chen Xuanli's decision to take refuge in Shuzhong, he saw Chen Xuanli's old face change suddenly.

"Your Majesty, there are still thousands of people in Guanzhong, but if your Majesty raises his arms, he will definitely gather and gather 100,000 troops, if he takes refuge in Shuzhong, won't it chill the hearts of the fathers and elders in Guanzhong?"

However, Li Longji still has no place to listen to these exhortations, and his face sank immediately. After all, Chen Xuanli has been in charge of the forbidden army for many years, and seeing that the Son of Heaven has made up his mind, he can only bow his head and agree, but when he left Xingqing Palace, he looked up at the gorgeous palace that didn't know how much money was spent, and his heart was full of regret and unwillingness.

Although Li Longji and Yang Guozhong both tried to conceal such a news, Du Youlin, who had been staring at Xingqing Palace and Yang Guozhong's house, still noticed the clue for the first time. He didn't dare to delay, and quietly ordered someone to send his wife Song Jinxi and his newborn son to a secret and safe place to settle down, and he immediately rushed to Pingkangfang Cui's house. When he entered the south gate of Pingkangfang and passed by Li Linfu's once glamorous mansion in the same square, he couldn't help but stop for a while and take a few more looks.

It's only been more than a year of hard work, and this place has been completely ruined, and no one even dares to take over such a mansion! As for Li Linfu's henchmen, they have now been relegated to the north and south, and their sons-in-law have also moved to the left one by one and belittled them, and none of them have ended up! is the mansion of the late Prime Minister Pei Guangting next to it, although both father and son died of illness in their prime, but now the third generation has grown up steadily!

Soon, he was riding his horse again. When he arrived at Cui's house, he went straight to the door without even reporting it, and saw his aunt Du Shisanniang and his sister and brother-in-law for the first time. As soon as he concisely told the situation he had discovered, Du Sanniang gasped, and Cui Peng also said angrily: "There are still so many officials and generals in Guanzhong, and he wants to abandon everyone and run for his life because of Yang Guozhong's prodding?" It's ridiculous...... As the Son of Heaven, he doesn't even have the determination to live and die with Chang'an? Chang'an City has food and weapons in stock, and it can hold on for at least a few months! ”

"Youlin, is there any news from your grandfather?" Du Sanniang pondered for a moment, and then asked.

Du Youlin suddenly wanted to speak and stopped. Princess Yuzhen quietly left Chang'an after her death, and Princess Gu'an moved to Yuhua Guanzhu in Zhongnan Mountain, although Huya was ordered by her father to sneak back to Chang'an, but not long ago she told herself that she had an urgent task and left in a hurry, and there was no news for several days. Only Chibi's intelligence network is still functioning, for example, the secret conversation between Yang Guozhong and Li Longji cannot be investigated, but the secret movements of the Son of Heaven and the prime minister can be monitored, so there is a conclusion that they may leave Chang'an. And the news of his father came from Shuo Fang, and then came to his ears through the mouth of Chibi.

"Brother, is there or not?"

Du Youlin saw that his sister Du Xianhui was already a little anxious, so he muttered: "Grandpa arrived in Shuofang not long ago, but he has never appeared in front of people since then, and even Du Sui and the others who followed him quietly to Shuofang have never appeared in front of people again. However, Chibi said that Grandpa should not be in danger, he should have been in the Shuofang Jiedu Embassy all the time, with Guo Ziyi, but the reason why there was no action should be that His Majesty Yang Guozhong had issued many strict orders to the Shuofang Jiedu Embassy, and he was not allowed to act rashly. ”

Cui Pengdeng's color changed. After all, he is also a person with an official position, and he knows what such an abnormal order meansβ€”that is to say, whether it is Li Longji or Yang Guozhong, he does not trust Shuo Fangjun at all! Even when the rebels were at this moment, the monarchs and ministers were reluctant to put the Shuofang army on the battlefield, as if they were afraid that while they were making meritorious achievements, they would be resentful because of the imperial court's ignorance of the previous chaos in Mobei. Thinking of this, he suddenly lost his indignation and sighed gloomily.

Du Sanniang has been stubborn since she was a child, and she has never wavered in her trust in her brother. She was silent for a moment before looking at Du Youlin and asked softly, "Then what are you going to let us do when you come now?" ”

"Auntie, while too many people don't know about His Majesty's intentions, inform relatives and friends everywhere in the city that you have to move your family to a safe place first."

Du Xianhui suddenly became anxious: "Brother, what do you mean, let's be a turtle with a shrunken head?" ”

After Du Youlin got up, he saw that the faces of the three closest relatives were very heavy, so he reluctantly smiled and said, "It's just that you should hide before a rainy day, and it's not that your majesty will abandon the city and flee." This is a matter for the men, and when the women settle down in this kind of chaos, the men can feel more at ease and do their best in front of them......"

"How do you do your best? You are not a military general, do you still plan to recruit warriors to defend Chang'an City? ”

Du Xianhui sneered at each other, and when she saw that Du Youlin didn't make a sound as if she was choking on herself, she gasped. Could it be that you guessed it right? So many famous civil and military officials can only sigh and not come forward, but Du Youlin, a lowly and petty official who is just a mere Guanglucheng, actually plans to come forward? Annoyed that she came up, she strode forward, grabbed her brother's collar, and said in a fierce voice: "Brother, why are you fainting!" ”

Du Sanniang also lowered her face and said: "Youlin, your Aunt Gu'an entrusted you at the beginning, but there is no such one!" ”

"Aunt Gu'an only asked my aunt to settle the Du family's relatives and friends, so that I could contact An Sishun at the right time, so as not to be aggrieved by the loyal ministers, and at the same time poke out the matter of His Majesty killing the prince just for the rumors of An Lushan, but now, Chang'an is in danger, although I am not as good as my brother's martial arts, but after all, I have also learned martial arts, how can I only protect myself?" Du Youlin desperately broke free from Du Xianhui's hand, and for the first time in his life, he disobeyed his sister, "Moreover, I told Uncle Chibi my thoughts, and he didn't object, and he said that he would do his best to let people help me!" ”

Du Sanniang saw that Du Xianhui's face was flushed, but her lips were bitten white, so she wanted to open her mouth to mediate the dispute between the two brothers and sisters, but who would have thought that Cui Peng would suddenly say: "Ah Niang, I also want to try it with Youlin!" ”

The younger brother couldn't persuade him to come back, and her husband went crazy with him, Du Xianhui suddenly raised her eyebrows. However, under her angry glare, her husband seemed to be heartbroken, and pulled Du Youlin to kneel in front of Du Sanniang so straight. Looking at her aunt and mother-in-law's face, she was first shocked, then regretful, and finally helpless, she only felt mixed tastes, until Du Sanniang beckoned her to go over, and she moved over step by step in a daze.

"If you have the heart, then do it!" Du Sanniang felt that Du Xianhui's hand suddenly became cold and stiff, but she still hardened her heart and said, "The Du family has never been a coward, and the Cui family has never been the most warrior, if you only think of Mingzhe to protect your life at the time of this great change, it is simply a disappointment of your surname!" To settle the affairs of all the families, I will take Hui Niang to take care of it, if there are good men who are willing to shoulder this matter with you, then you will bring them one by one. At such a time, one more person is one more strength! ”

Hearing that Du Sanniang actually agreed, Du Youlin was overjoyed, and hurriedly kowtowed to Cui Peng to agree, and the two of Uncle Lang and cousin immediately got up and went out. As soon as they left, Du Sanniang hugged Du Xianhui, and then rubbed her head and said, "If you want to cry, cry." Whether it is a man or a woman, live for a lifetime, either accept your fate and be rubbed by others, or do your best to see if you can break the fate! You have to believe your grandfather, he will never let a few of us face the danger alone in Chang'an City! ”

In the house, Du Xianhui lay on Du Shisanniang's shoulder and cried silently, and outside the house, Du Youlin and Cui Peng didn't walk a few steps when they came out, but they were blocked by two people. Seeing that it was Cui Wuniang and Cui Jiuniang, Cui Peng was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly called the fifth aunt and the ninth aunt, and Du Youlin also hurriedly saluted, and then laughed and said: "Aunt and sister are all in the house......"

"We're not here for them, we're here for you, but now it looks like we'll have to add an Apeng!" Cui Jiuniang's eyes swept around Uncle Lang and the others, and then she raised her chin and said, "Don't pretend to be garlic for me, now the people in Chang'an City are panicking, Xia Qing also said to me last night, let me prepare, it seems that even the saint is thinking about running away this day!" You came out of Thirteen Niang with this expression, and you obviously made a decision! I can sue you, don't underestimate women, if you don't recruit me from the truth, I will go to Jingzhao Mansion to accuse you of plotting wrong! ”

Seeing that Cui Jiuniang was threatening people so indifferently, Cui Wuniang was angry. She pushed Cui Jiuniang, who was still as impatient as she was young, behind her, and then said to Du Youlin and Cui Peng, whose faces had changed greatly: "You Aunt Jiu is just joking and scary, don't pay attention to her." Now that you've decided what you're going to do, bring enough people with you! Although I am far from being as heroic as my uncle and grandfather back then, when they killed two Zhang first, and then punished Wei, I have been idle all these years, and I have quietly gathered a group of people. At this time, there will never be a shortage of people, Apeng, you bring it! ”
