The night view of Erhai Lake is very beautiful, especially tonight, when the Tang Dynasty finally agreed to talk about it, and the clouds of war that shrouded this beautiful area disappeared at once.

On the sand on the east shore of Erhai Lake, the two sides lit several big bonfires, and the two envoys of Nanzhao who came to be hostages, ten generals and ministers, and their servants, and the soldiers of the Tiance army, the merchants and craftsmen who came with the army, regardless of you and me, men and women, held hands and danced happily around the bonfire, laughing and laughing, like a family.

Yunnan Wangge Luofeng is intimate, this time with the ship, there are fifty young and beautiful girls, all fourteen or fifteen years old, it is said that they are all virgins, with their joining, the atmosphere at the bonfire celebration has become more and more fanatical and cheerful.

According to Yang Zifen, the envoy of Nanzhao, according to their customs here, at such a bonfire celebration, no matter which girl the man fancies, he can go up to court, as long as the woman nods, the two can find a place, and the spring breeze is once.

The two strong men of Nanzhao were bare-chested, and they vigorously beat the copper drums they brought, and the drums were enthusiastic and unrestrained, and the people dancing around the bonfire danced more and more happily and excitedly.

All the people were infected by this joyous atmosphere, and shouted with joy, and many began to sing loudly, and the two tones of singing were intertwined in an indescribable harmony.

From time to time, Tang Army soldiers, merchants and craftsmen went to court, some succeeded, and some did not. Successfully carrying a girl away can always cause a large number of cheers, and those who don't succeed are not angry, and continue to dance with a red face.

Soon the Tiance Army found out. These Nanzhao girls seem to be very partial to the captains and generals in the army. After that, a large number of team members and brigade commanders went. Sure enough, the success rate has increased significantly, and there are less than ten girls left on the field, including the most beautiful one.

Yang Zifen sat on a platform with Xiao Quai, looked at the cheerful crowd by the bonfire, and said with a smile: "There are not many girls, why doesn't King Lanling go down to dance, do you see, that one is the tallest." The eyes are big, I've been staring at you for a long time, it seems that I have a love for King Lanling, and King Lanling doesn't have the slightest thought about her? ”

Xiao Quzhi glanced at the girl, she was indeed very beautiful, tall and slender, with moving curves, she was the type she liked, but Xiao Quzhi was not a little tempted, and the fool also knew that Ge Luo Feng'an was not kind. Besides, He Ke'er is much more beautiful than her.

"I'm a quiet and shy person, I really can't do this kind of thing." Xiao Quzhi shook his head and said, "That girl looks more than fifteen years old." Why is it still a virgin? Could it be that you Nanzhao are popular for late marriage and late childbearing? ”

"Of course not." Yang Zifen shook her head, and then asked, "Does King Lanling know whose daughter she is?" ”

"Mr. Yang, please speak."

"Her name is Zhu Ling'er, and she is the daughter of Zhu Lingqian, the former governor of the Tang Dynasty and the envoy of the city building."

"Is that the Yue Ling Governor Zhu Lingqian, who was sent by Zhang Qiu and Qiong to Yining City to build a city and build roads, and was later killed by the rebellion of Zhu Yao?"

Speaking of which, this matter is the fuse of the Nanzhao Rebellion, anyway, I don't know if the former Jiannan Jiedu envoy Zhang Qiu and Qiong have entered the water, building cities and building roads is a good thing for the rule of the Tang Dynasty, but he has to send the governor of Yuewang to do these things on the territory of the Yaozhou Governor's Mansion.

In the end, I don't know what contradictions happened between Zhu Lingqian and the local indigenous clan, anyway, when Zhu Zhu made ~ rebellion, the Yaozhou Governor's Mansion did not stop it, nor did it send troops to quell the chaos, but pretended not to know.

As a result, after the rebellion of the Zhu family, they were afraid that the Tang Dynasty would punish the crime, so more than 1,000 people from Zhu Ji (mainly the three families) went to Nanzhao to ask Pi Luo Ge (Ge Luo Feng's father, the one who unified the six edicts) to play the court to ask for "justice".

In the end, under the intervention of King Nanzhao, Zhu Jian was really not punished, and then Nan Zhao took the opportunity to win over Zhu Zhao, meddling and vainly trying to control the affairs of eastern Yunnan, which led to the later Tang Dynasty suppressing Nan Zhao, so that finally forced against Nan Zhao.

So if you trace back to the source, the fuse of everything is still the rebellion of Zhu Jian and the killing of Zhu Lingqian.

Yang Zifen nodded: "That Zhu Lingqian is known as the first beauty in Yunnan, when she was killed nine years ago, Zhu Ling'er was only seven years old, and she was rescued by a loyal servant who gave her life to escape, and was later rescued by King Guiyi (Pi Luo Ge), and since then she has grown up in Taihe City."

Zhu Ling'er inherited her mother's beauty and her mother's pride, and when she was fourteen years old, people kept courting her, but they were all rejected.

said that she is a man, she must be a young hero, brave and champion of the three armies, capable of lifting the crown, and all-round talent in civil and military affairs. You say, where do we have such people in Nanzhao? In this way, it is not delayed.

The Tianci Lanling King came to Nanzhao, which exactly met her requirements, this is the first time she has participated in such a bonfire celebration, isn't this the will of heaven? According to the lower officials, you are a man and a woman, it is a match made in heaven! ”

Yang Zifen is almost sixty years old this year, and the wrinkles on his face when he laughed at this time also stretched out, like a blooming chrysanthemum, Xiao Quzhi no longer looked at him, with a silver smile on his face, and then he would spit out dinner and stare at Zhu Ling'er instead.

Her figure and appearance are indeed very conspicuous in the crowd, and there are only eight girls left with her, compared to other girls' faces are flushed, smoke and waves flow, shouting excitedly, like blooming, fiery roses, she feels like an iceberg, not smiling at all, there is always a layer of frost on her face, her eyes are cold, only when she looks at herself, there is a trace of light flowing.

The kindness of the beauty can not be disappointed, Xiao Quzhi raised the wine glass to Yang Zifen, both of them did it all, Xiao Quzhi put down the wine glass, laughed and jumped off the stage, and came to Zhu Ling'er.

The most enthusiastic cheers sounded around, and the scene reached a high ~ tide at once, and Yang Zifen on the stage was even more smiling with no teeth, and the wrinkles on her face were like chrysanthemum petals, blooming.

As Zhu Ling'er was carried away, the other seven girls on the field quickly belonged, and the other men could only kick and twist their bodies frantically around the bonfire to vent their energy and passion.

Soon they were so tired that they were panting, so many people began to rest, and went to the back table to drink and eat, the Nanzhao people persuaded the Tang people to drink their wine, and the Tiance soldiers persuaded each other to drink the immortal brew they brought.

General Nanzhao named Zhao Meiqiu drank happily, came to the edge of Erhai Lake with a wine bowl, raised his hands high, and roared loudly, looking extremely happy.

A Tang military lieutenant walked over and patted him on the shoulder, laughed and pulled him back to continue drinking, and asked Zhao Meiqiu how the wine of Tiance Army was, Zhao Meiqiu boldly followed the example of Tang Jun and gave two thumbs up and said good wine, but in his heart he felt that this wine was too fragrant and too sweet, not suitable for fighting men to drink, which could compare to their Nanzhao wine, the taste was so exciting.

The two of them came to the table like brothers and continued to drink, and behind them, if someone had good enough eyesight and looked carefully, they could find that in the water not far from the shore, a dozen or so water ghosts were poking their heads out of the water, looking at the bonfire celebration on the shore, and their eyes seemed to be two fires.

Then the water spirits descended again, turned back, and then climbed into two small boats that had been waiting on the lake for a long time, and took advantage of the wind to speed westward.

Half an hour later, on the edge of a water village between Taihe City and Longwei City, 20,000 Nanzhao sailors stood neatly and solemnly, and the wise and martial Nanzhao King Ge Luofeng stood in front of them, holding a wine bowl in both hands, and the light of the torch shone on his face, his expression solemn and solemn.

"The kingdom survives, and in this battle, this battle is only allowed to advance, not retreat, only to win, not to lose!

For the sake of your family, for the peace of Nanzhao, you must do your best to win! He shouted and drank the wine from his bowl.

The 20,000 Nanzhao Navy Army was silent for a while, and each of the Nanzhao Navy soldiers drank the wine in the bowl, threw the wine bowl on the ground, raised the weapon in his hand, knocked on his chest, and suddenly burst into a huge cheer: "Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!" ”

The surrounding troops left behind and the mobilized township soldiers were also infected by this emotion, and they also raised their blades or fists in their hands and shouted: "Wan Sheng, Wan Sheng!" ”

In this high morale, the 20,000 Nanzhao naval troops began to board the ship, Ge Luofeng was still not at ease, and pulled the commander of the sailors, Wang Lekuan, to instruct, and finally did not forget to tell carefully: "...... If you can kill a little less Tang soldiers, just kill a little less, just burn their warships and shipyards, it's best to capture the Lanling King alive, but you must not let him die, remember. ”

The same night, different scenery, north of Taihe City, about two hundred and sixty miles away from the Tiance army camp in Jianchuan, a girl named A Youduo sneaked out of the house and came to the agreed under a Huangguo fir.

She hurried over, but she didn't see the person who asked her, and couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and began to kick the small stone on the ground with her mouth, and at this moment, the sound of a quiet flute sounded in the tree, and Ah Youduo turned around happily and raised her head.

The man on the tree stood tall, standing on a tree trunk, his white clothes fluttering, his face was like a crown of jade, he really looked like a fairy disciple, when he saw her looking over, he smiled and said: "I came early." ”

The man in white jumped down with a smile, and Ah Youduo walked up quickly, but when he was almost there, he suddenly stopped, just looked at each other affectionately, as if he was happy and angry.

If Xiao Qu's illness is also here, you will find that this handsome man in white is An Lushan's righteous brother, the son of the former Tang Dynasty famous general Zhang Shouqi - Zhang Xiancheng!

At the same time, more than 4,000 miles away in the Mobei grassland, a top assassin named Nie Xingsoul, with the cooperation of the second prince of Hui Yidijian, quietly sneaked into the tent of Prince Ye Hu, first cast incense, and then stuffed a pill into Prince Ye Hu's mouth, watched the pill slowly swallow into his throat, and then secretly left with satisfaction.

Nie Xingsoul knew that on the second day, there would be news of Prince Ye Hu's violent death. (To be continued.) )
