Chapter 105: The Dust Settles One

readx;

The confrontation is a foregone conclusion, and the atmosphere of saber-rattling has reached its peak. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Seeing that things would be completely out of the orbit of things if they continued to develop, Guo Shan, who was short of oxygen, opened his mouth at the last moment and spoke silently.

Steward Hu didn't know what to do, and hurriedly asked the person next to him what his master said.

His son Hu Dangdang immediately said, "The master seems to have asked us to put down the knife." ”

"Nonsense." Steward Hu said: "The master is now in the hands of the thief, and he is expecting us to go up to the rescue, how can he let us put the knife down?" ”

Guo Shan's mouth squirmed with difficulty, and he spoke silently.

Hu Dangdang said: "The master seems to be saying that the person who arrested him is the emperor." ”

Steward Hu sneered: "Look at how many of them there are, which one is like the emperor?" The emperor is a true dragon emperor, and he came in a dragon robe.

Zhao Dekai was furious and shouted: "The emperor left the palace in a small service to visit the refugees. What are you guys doing with knives? Is it aiding the abuses and trying to rebel? ”

The Guo family's subordinates were all stunned, and Steward Hu was a little puzzled.

Suddenly, a part of the song stood up, muttered to Steward Hu, and pointed at Tang Jian. Steward Hu's face changed, and he seemed to realize something, and immediately asked all the Guo family members to throw away their weapons and kowtow and bow down.

Look at this group of hulala people kneeling on the ground, shouting that they have seen the emperor and the like. Li Shimin finally let go of the hand that was pinching Guo Shan's neck, held Guo Shan's neck and asked, "Guo Shan, what do you want to say?" ”

Guo Shan took a greedy breath, squinted weakly and crooked on the table beside him and said, "The minister didn't want to rebel, the minister just wanted His Majesty to return to the palace quickly." ”

Li Shimin frowned, and became angry again: "Why do you always want me to go back to the palace?" ”

Guo Shan, who had regained a large amount of oxygen, recovered his senses, and he said excitedly: "Your Majesty, go back to the palace quickly, you want to move." ”

"Nonsense." Zhao Dekai looked at Guo Shan with a sneer: "Ridiculous"

Guo Shan knew that these people were still treating him as a thief, so he sneered angrily: "The wine, tea, and food that Your Majesty drank when he was in Penglai Pavilion were all prepared by me when he was in Penglai Pavilion." If I were a thief, the emperor would have been poisoned by me, would I need to risk drawing my sword now? Guo Shan said anxiously at Li Shimin: "Your Majesty, Chang'an City, it's really going to move." ”

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "The ground moves? Are you joking with me? ”

Guo Shan rubbed his hands and feet, so he said: "The minister doesn't dare to joke with the lives of millions of people, the minister is willing to use his life to guarantee, and the earth movement will definitely come soon." Please ask the emperor to return to the palace immediately, and order Jin Wuwei to arrange for the people to evacuate temporarily, and ask Wannian and the officials of the two counties of Chang'an to assist and cooperate. Your Majesty, the earth movement is not a trivial matter, that is the real natural disaster. ”

Before Li Shimin could speak, Tang Jian asked: "Guo Shan, you better dismiss your people first, and a few of us will take Your Majesty back to the palace." ”

When Guo Shan heard this, he suddenly realized.

It seems that Wei Zheng and several people still refuse to believe themselves, thinking that their words hide a conspiracy.

Guo Shan was angry, and he wanted to raise his hand and let all the soldiers rush up and take all the people. However, it is precisely because he now has the ability to take people with a wave of his hand that he has created the embarrassment of his current situation.

Although Guo Shan was not angry in his heart, he could only wave his hand to let Hu Laohan and the others retreat. In fact, even if Guo Shan raises his hand to let them rebel now, I'm afraid few people dare to listen to Guo Shan.

Is the lord or the emperor big? It's a good question to ponder. What's more, all the parts are almost recruited, far from the point of loyalty.

Hula and a group of people retreated, Hu Laohan glanced at Guo Shan worriedly, and finally followed with the soldiers.

Guo Shan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that after Hu Laohan and the others left, Wei Zheng and the others were no longer so nervous.

Guo Shan secretly thought, now that I have given my life to you, are you still worried about me?

At this moment, Tang Jian's body suddenly tilted, and more than a dozen cups on the table slammed to the ground.

Wang Qi's face changed greatly: "It's suffered, it's really moved." ”

At this time, who would doubt Guo Shan's words?

Guo Shan also smiled bitterly, and he couldn't feel the joy of being trusted anymore.

"Hurry up and protect the emperor to return to the palace, don't stay in the house urgently." Guo Shan snorted, but Li Shimin said, "What about the refugees in Penglai Pavilion? ”

Guo Shan hurriedly said: "The ministers have already let them withdraw, Your Majesty, there are only a few of us left here." ”

Wei Zheng was speechless, and there was a feeling that he had been cheated by Guo Shan. But no matter how awkward they were, a few people still dragged Li Shimin outside.

Thousands of troops can cause the earth to shake, but the level of ground movement is far from the earthquake. At this moment, Li Shimin really felt the unpredictability of Tianwei and the terribleness of natural disasters, and they clearly felt the shaking of the earth under their feet. Running on the wide Chunmingmen Street, I saw the Guo family members with bright fire in the distance.

At this moment, the trilogues were also in a mess, and when they hit Guo Shan and the others who ran out of the Penglai Pavilion, they heard Guo Shan shout: "You go and call the people to retreat, and don't let people hide under the wall." ”

To hide under the wall is to seek death.

You feel safe if you normally hide under a wall, but if you do, you can almost get slapped in an earthquake.

As he shouted, several horses came galloping over there. Hearing the shouts from afar, I saw that it was Kang Nei, who had disappeared with Empress Changsun in Penglai Pavilion before. Seeing him turn over and dismount and kneel, he said: "The minister listens to Niangniang's decree, please get on the horse and return to the palace." ”

Li Shimin asked, "How are the queens?" ”

Kang Neishou glanced up at Guo Shan, and replied to Li Shimin: "Soon after the minister and Niangniang returned to the palace, they met the boss of the Penglai Pavilion Store who took the card of Lord Xiao Guo and asked to see Niangniang and said that the ground was moving, and the queen had already let the concubines and concubines in the palace take refuge. The mother instructed me to come by horse to escort the driver, and asked the emperor to get on the horse. ”

There was a boom, and a wall on the left collapsed at the sound of Kang Nei's attendant, and a crowd of newly awakened people huddled into the street. But someone happened to be shot to death by the wall.

"Your Majesty, the people have become chaotic, and any accident can happen at this moment, so you better get on the horse and go first." Wei Zheng said eagerly.

Li Shimin snorted coldly at Chunmingmen Street, which was crowded and noisy and crying, and said, "How can I retreat at this moment?" Do you want to let the people who have abandoned Chang'an ignore it? ”

Wang Qi said: "The emperor is the world, how can he abandon the world for the sake of a mere Chang'an City?" How many years has our Datang only been established? How can he be confused again? Now the Quartet barbarians have surrendered because of the emperor's dragon might, but if something happens to you, the emperor, the ministers dare to guarantee that the Quartet barbarians will definitely take the opportunity to attack the border passes of our Datang. The local wealthy families will take advantage of the situation to rebel, and then the Tang Dynasty will fall apart, and the people of the world will be displaced and suffer from war. ”

He said it really, but Li Shimin was stunned and didn't listen to a word.

He turned over and got on his horse, and Yuanyu Yue stood on the street of Chunmingmen, and the chaotic people around him shouted loudly: "The people of the Tang Dynasty, I am Li Shimin, and I am your father." Listen to my commands, and do not panic. The court will fight this disaster with you, and I will fight this disaster with you."

He was busy working, and Guo Shan was not idle, letting the Guo family's troops command the rebellious people to evacuate. Wang Jue immediately made a decision, turned over and ran to the nearest Chang'an County. At this moment, only by gathering all the officials can the military and government of Chang'an City be able to fight against natural disasters.

Wei Zheng said goodbye to Li Shimin and returned to the palace, and he was going to supervise the hundred officials and the army. He feared that someone would take the risk of a mutiny in this natural disaster, although it was unlikely. But once the 1 in 10,000 chance is won, it will be a greater disaster than a natural disaster for the royal family.

Soon, guards appeared on the streets, and under the command of Tang Jian, these guards maintained law and order and rescued the people who remained in the house while evacuating the people.

These guards appeared faster and more than Guo Shan imagined. Because of this, this catastrophe was able to minimize the damage.

"Guo Shan, how did you find out that you want to move?"

On the carriage that evacuated Chunmingmen Street, Li Shimin asked Guo Shandao.

"Back to the emperor, the ground movement is unpredictable. However, the former ministers of the earth moved to discover the abnormality of the animals, found that the water in the well water was turbid and foul-smelling, and happened to discover the abnormality through the fluctuation of the water surface. At that time, the minister was not sure that there would be ground movement, but the minister was afraid that there would be ground movement. The minister didn't dare to bet, and finally had to bet. Guo Shan replied.

He and Li Shimin are now in the same car, and they only evacuated after the government took control of Chunmingmen Street. And at this moment, the people in the left neighborhood of Chunmingmen Street have almost evacuated.

"There was devastation and wailing everywhere. What I was most afraid of seeing finally appeared. Li Shimin looked out of the window of the car and sighed.

Guo Shan, who was honored to ride with him, also looked outside.

He said: "Your Majesty, natural disasters are beyond the power of manpower. Actually, we've done a good job this time. ”

At this moment, the earthquake has passed, and what can be seen are many collapsed houses in Chang'an City, as well as cracked ground. Thanks to the fact that there are not high-rise buildings everywhere like in later generations, otherwise in the face of the earthquake, the people of Chang'an City may really be doomed.

However, the situation is also not optimistic. The most tragic thing is that most of the people who died in this earthquake were not crushed to death by houses, but trampled to death in the chaos, or hacked to death by people who were frightened crazy.

"Natural disasters are terrible, but most of them did not die under natural disasters but died in **. The emperor and his ministers thought that they should increase the management of Chang'an, open the granary for disaster relief, and issued an order to appease the people. Otherwise, once the refugees become rioters, I am afraid that more people will die. Guo Shandao.

"I asked you to return to Dali Temple as an assistant lawyer, and I will invite you to the court. In the past few days, let's go to Jingzhao Mansion to help with errands. ”
