Chapter 61: The Conquest of Goguryeo (1)

In the first month of the first year of the Tang Dynasty, Gaozong brought the military queen and the kings of the clan, the civil and military officials Feng Zen Taishan, the tenth day of the first month, the emperor issued an edict, all the civil and military generals who were ordered to follow and the military generals who came to worship all over the country to supervise the assassin and the old man, as well as the personnel who came to see the emperor every month, whether they belonged to the Tang Dynasty or the country of Yidi, all the officials of the third rank and above were given the second class, the seventh grade or above, the fourth grade or less were added to the ranks, and the eight grades were added to the first order, and the honors were turned (the merit was converted once), and those old people who came to worship, Men over 100 years old are awarded official positions or titles (official positions or titles are awarded in white without the order of the court, which is probably equivalent to honorary official positions) to assassinate the history of the state, and women are awarded to the county king. And the version above eighty or ninety is awarded the section level (middle and low-level military attachΓ©).

At the same time, Gaozong also issued an edict to amnesty the world, gave seven days of drunkenness, and then feasted the ministers and played the "Nine Music".

Later, Empress Wu made a statement to Gaozong, thinking that Gaozong's reward was too little, and issued an edict to all the participants to enter the knighthood and rank again, as a result, Empress Wu was generous to others, won the support of the people of the world, and earned enough prestige for himself, and Gaozong didn't even know, which made Li Xian, who was watching coldly, secretly anxious.

It's just that Li Xian knows that because of Gaozong's cowardly temperament and decadent body, the power is almost a foregone conclusion in the hands of the Empress Wu, and it is almost impossible to change it, not to mention that even if this matter is in a hurry, the crown prince Li Hong should be in a hurry, what he is doing now is just to make a fortune in silence and secretly gain profits, but he can't jump out and be the first bird at this time.

What's more, after these days of deployment, he has successfully turned the attention of Empress Wu's suspicion of killing the mastermind of the Wu clan's children to Pei Wang Li Xian, and now the relationship between the two is getting worse and worse, although it is a bit immoral to do so, but Li Xian, who holds the heart of "Dead Dao Friends Do Not Die Poor Dao", does not have the slightest sense of apology.

"This guy of yours is really insidious and cunning, despicable and shameless, and even quietly transferred the anger of the Empress Wu to King Pei, I am afraid that this person is dead, and I don't know which one is the one who harmed him."

In Li Xian's gorgeous carriage, Dou Xiantong was secretly arranged in it to recuperate, although her injuries were already healed, but she still said that her internal injuries were not healed and she needed to recuperate, although Li Xian knew that she had no internal injuries at all, but she still did not say anything, and reluctantly allowed her to squeeze together with herself in the carriage.

Regarding the reason, firstly, because Li Xian felt that she had taken a risk, and he felt a little sorry in his heart, but secondly, Li Xian was very satisfied with this feeling of being squeezed into a carriage with a beautiful little woman in a small space.

"Hey, this girl is talking to you, and you dare not answer, could it be that this girl is hiding in the carriage and affecting your mood? In that case, this girl is gone. ”

Seeing that Li Xian ignored her, Dou Xiantong was immediately furious, shouting that he was about to get out of the carriage, but was coaxed by Li Xian's kind words: "How can you mean this?" Miss Dou is as beautiful as a fairy, gentle as water, which makes people lose their souls at a glance, how can anyone hate it? I was just shocked by the powerful aura of the eldest lady, my brain was a little confused, and I couldn't think of a word for a while, if Miss Dou left, I would definitely be restless in the next seat, the food was unsweet, and I felt that I had no taste in life, that hehe, I begged the eldest lady to forgive me for not knowing the blessing in the lower body, spare this time, don't go again, right? ”

In fact, although it was a joke on the surface, Li Xian really didn't dare to let her get out of the carriage like this, just imagine, in the car of the prince, the prince and his dependents are usually seated, and now Li Xian is just an eleven-year-old little child, with no family and no heirs.

What's more, Li Xian also felt a little bored alone in the carriage, and now that there is a beautiful woman to accompany him for free to relieve his boredom, what is there not to be satisfied with?

And Dou Xiantong naturally didn't want to really get out of the car like this, she said that she just saw the dull atmosphere in the car, and deliberately used it to threaten Li Xian, and along the way, in fact, she had threatened like this countless times, and every time she was coaxed back by Li Xian's witty words, she was quite affected by this feeling in her heart.

Since you begged this girl not to leave, the girl reluctantly agreed to it. By the way, the last time you talked to this girl about the spread of the flying pigeon and the establishment of an intelligence network, is this really feasible? ”

Although it was during the period of recuperation, Dou Xiantong still did not forget her duty, and carefully scrutinized some of the ideas that Li Xian put forward for her, and there were also many ideas along the way, and decided to wait for her to completely take over Infernal Affairs, and implement them one by one, and definitely build this secret intelligence organization into the No. 1 spy organization in Datang.

Li Xian saw that Dou Xiantong was so dedicated and kind, and naturally felt extremely relieved in his heart, so he patiently told him all about the spy organization in later generations, although he did not expect the organization under Dou Xiantong's command to be as great as the spy organization in later generations, but I believe that more knowledge would be beneficial and harmless to Dou Xiantong.

The two walked all the way, all the way, all the way, and finally returned to Chang'an in April.

After returning to Chang'an, Dou Xiantong practiced martial arts diligently, while focusing on cultivating the snake spirit organization, and at the same time slowly took over the entire Infernal Affairs organization, and began to rectify, trying to establish a spy agency completely loyal to Li Xian, because she was very busy with a lot of affairs, so there were many fewer meetings with Li Xian these days.

And Li Xian was also busy studying and practicing martial arts at this time, because he learned from Zhang Wuchen that the current little monk Wuneng had caught up with him in the progress of martial arts, and even surpassed him slightly in some aspects, if he didn't step up his practice, he would no longer be the opponent of the little monk, and he didn't even dare to think about the days when he was beaten by the little monk and looked for teeth.

In the blink of an eye, it was the golden autumn and July, and one night Li Xian was practicing martial arts in the back garden, when he suddenly saw a black shadow falling, he suddenly became vigilant, and shouted in a deep voice: "Who? ”

But when he saw that the man did not speak, he came up and launched a sneak attack on him, and a bright sword approached him silently, and stabbed him straight into the throat.

Seeing this, Li Xian couldn't help sneering, staggered to dodge, and then flicked his legs, jumped forward a few feet directly, and actually came to the other party's body, taking advantage of the opponent's long sword to be retracted in the future, his right palm was erected and slashed towards the opponent's wrist, although he is only eleven years old now, he is already seven feet long, and his strength is even greater, although it is only a fleshy palm, but if this palm is cut down, it can also ensure that the opponent's wrist is broken and broken.

But unexpectedly, the other party's body method turned out to be strange and abnormal, and he actually stepped back a few feet flat, and then raised the long sword in his hand to stab Li Xian's wrist directly, in order to prevent Li Xian from rushing in front of the other party again, the man also took out a short sword in his left hand and lit it on his chest, I believe that if Li Xian rushes forward again, a pair of palms will definitely be poked into a transparent hole.

How do you know that Li Xian did not retreat but advanced, turned his head to dodge the long sword in the other party's right hand, with a long laugh, came to the man, stretched out his finger and lightly touched the man's left shoulder, the man's left hand could no longer hold the short sword, when the short sword was thrown to the ground with a bang, but the right hand no longer moved, and also threw the sword to the ground, and said with disgust: "It turns out that this guy has learned to point points, hum, you hide your selfishness in your heart, which led to my defeat, not counted." ”

"If you only talk about martial arts, of course this game doesn't count, because Fang Cai's short few moves, with your swordsmanship, I have already pierced me seven or eight times, but the game of victory and defeat is not in the level of martial arts, but who can have the last laugh, no matter how high your martial arts are, once you become a dead soul under the sword, who can you prove it to? Soldiers, treacherous ways, killing people is also tricks, as long as you can kill people to be considered successful, it does not necessarily have to be higher than the opponent's martial arts, fairy child, my words must be kept in mind in the future, only in this way, you can become a first-class killer. Li Xian looked at the other party quietly and said in a serious tone.

It turned out that the person who came turned out to be Dou Xiantong, in fact, Li Xian also recognized it from her body, and it was expected that Dou Xiantong was reluctant to stab himself seriously, so he dared to risk bullying him twice, and at the same time used the acupoint technique to defeat him, but this is not the point, the point is that Li Xian wants to teach Dou Xiantong a common sense.

Because in the usual relationship, he found that Dou Xiantong's martial arts were good, enough to become a generation of chivalrous women, but not enough to become a first-class assassin, because she always relied on her martial arts and looked down on other killing methods, and regarded killing as a pure competition, which can be clearly reflected from the process of fighting Qiu Shenji and others in Zhenzhou.

Later, Li Xian learned that in fact, it was not that she had no chance to kill Qiu Shenji in that battle against Dou Xiantong, because she had a crossbow hidden in her sleeve in her left sleeve, and she could severely damage Qiu Shenji with just a little light, but she disdained to do so, so she finally had to fight with the other party to lose both before escaping. Therefore, today Li Xian wants to take this opportunity to tell her this common sense, there is a difference between being a killer and being a chivalrous guest, and there is also a difference between killing and competing.

He believed that if Dou Xiantong realized this, he would not only be able to make her a qualified killer, but also ensure that she could survive safely in a treacherous environment, and only by surviving would everything else be meaningful.

Dou Xiantong naturally understood Li Xian's good intentions, nodded vigorously, and sighed softly: "Your kindness, I will take care of it, rest assured, my life not only belongs to me, but also to you...... Belonging to the Tang Dynasty, we will not give up so easily, and our great cause will be more difficult in the future, and sometimes we must do whatever it takes to complete it, and all this cannot be completed by virtue of morality and arrogance alone. ”

"I wronged you, so that you have to give up your principles and be a ruthless killer." Li Xian gently supported Dou Xiantong's fragrant shoulder, and then said softly.

"What is there that is not wronged? He was originally a ruthless killer. Dou Xiantong smiled, and then said: "Actually, I came to you tonight, I have something important to tell you, Yuan Gai Suwen is dead, his three sons are in dispute, the eldest son Yuan Jiannan came to the court, expressing his willingness to surrender, and the saint intends to conquer Goryeo, this is a great opportunity for Er to make contributions, don't miss it." ”
