Chapter 654 It's always a joy to see a white face and a fat man

On the third day after Yan Yunjun besieged Chang'an, Pei Lin went out of the city to meet Li Xian, the king of Yan, and Li Chengde, the king of Hedong. He was a staunch supporter of Li Yuan's army, when he was the Jinyang Palace guard, Li Yuan's army's food, grass, baggage, heavy armor and weapons were all from Jinyang Palace, and his great credit was still in the eldest grandson Shunde, Chen Yinshou and other old ministers of the Tang Mansion.

It is precisely because of this that Li Yuan attaches great importance to him. Although Li Yuan was annoyed that the family was too powerful, he also knew that it would be impossible to succeed without the support of the family. The main reason why he invaded Chang'an like a bamboo from the day he started his army and established the Tang Dynasty to replace the Great Sui was because he had the support of the Guan Long family. Financial, human, and material resources, if it weren't for these families on his side, Li Yuan would never be able to sit on that chair and say goodbye now.

It is precisely because of this that Li Yuan took advantage of Li Shimin's rebellion to clean up the imperial court, but he still did not dare to do anything to the family that was really on the table.

Pei Lin is the representative of the family in the Tang Dynasty, and what kind of weight he has in the Tang Dynasty is not only known to Li Yuan, but also to Li Xian, so he will say that green peach to Pei Lian.

Pei Lin couldn't help but sigh on the way back to the city, it was only a few years later, and he couldn't imagine that he was once again faced with a time when he had to make a choice. When he was in Taiyuan, he decisively stood on Li Yuan's side, and used all the reserves of Jinyang Palace to assist Li Yuan in raising troops, which brought a new peak for his Pei family. Now that he is a speaker, no one in the Tang Dynasty can stand out. Now it is another time when you have to make a choice, but this time it is much more difficult than in Taiyuan.

Lifting the curtain of the car window, Pei Lin looked at the yellow but shriveled wheat on both sides of the official road and let out a long sigh. Thinking of what Li Xian said before, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Li Xian is a person who is very good at taking advantage of the situation, Pei Lian even thinks that Li Xian's vision is better than Li Yuan's, and his means of doing things are more decisive.

Green Peach ......

He repeated the words as he repeated them, his eyes flickering more and more.

After the carriage entered Chang'an City, it rushed directly to the direction of Taiji Palace, Pei Lin did not dare to delay, the emperor was still waiting for his news, but the problem was that he did not bring back any news. Li Xian took the prince's son Li Chengde, the king of Hedong, and played the banner of the Qing monarch's side, but Pei Lian went to Yanyun's army, but Li Xian did not mention any conditions at all. Pei Lin knew why Li Xian didn't mention it, because he didn't have any conditions at all. It can also be said that from beginning to end, King Yan only needs such one condition. Pick the largest peach from the peach tree in the emperor's courtyard, and now it seems to be ripe......

Thinking that King Yan didn't even bother to think about an excuse for himself, he felt a headache.

After entering the Taiji Palace, Pei Lin got out of the carriage and went straight to the imperial study.

"What do people outside the city say?"

When Li Yuan heard that Pei Lin was back, he didn't have the heart to pretend to be deep anymore and asked directly.

"Punish the king of Qin and establish the prince."

Pei Lian thought about it for a while, and thought of a passable condition for Li Xian.

"Whom? Stand him?! ”

Li Yuan was stunned for a moment and asked angrily.

"Li Chengde, the king of Lihedong."

Pei Lin glanced at Li Yuan cautiously and said: "Li Xian, the king of Yan, asks His Majesty to announce to the world, issue an order to kill the king of Qin, and appoint Li Chengde, the son of the prince, the king of Hedong, as the prince. Please also ......"

"Say!"

"Please also ask Your Majesty to be the crown prince and emperor."

"Shameless!"

Li Yuan walked back to the chair quickly, slapped the table and said angrily: "I'm still here, he made me the crown prince and emperor, where did he put me?" Don't talk about it anymore, no one should go out again, I want to see if he really dares to attack Chang'an! Come! It is rumored that Zhang Gongjin and Liu Hongji hurried into the palace to see me! ”

Pei Lin looked at Li Yuan's increasingly stiff body, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he watched the wrinkles on his face get deeper and deeper. When His Majesty first ascended the throne three years ago, although he had already passed the year of knowing the destiny of heaven, how energetic was he at that time? At that time, no one doubted that the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty would become an emperor through the ages. It's only been three years, and the emperor has been forced to be like this.

"Minister......

He looked at Li Yuan and knew what he had to say at this time: "The minister feels that he should talk more, as long as it can be delayed for a month, the people and horses escorted by King Qin of Chang'an from all over the country will almost arrive, and when the time comes, the army from all walks of life will gather, and King Yan can only retreat." ”

"How can it be so easy!"

Li Yuan glanced at Pei Lin and sat down on the chair in a dejected manner: "If I change to outside...... The city will be attacked in less than three days. ”

……

……

Wu Ji Steamed Bun Shop, which has changed to sell vegetarian stuffed buns and scallion pancakes, has been doing very well these days, not because the buns in this shop have suddenly tasted a lot better, nor because there are more green onions in the scallion pancakes, but because of the hundreds of thousands of Yan Yunjun outside Chang'an City. The people in Chang'an City have a very special temperament, which can be understood as not panicking when things change, and of course, it can also be said to be vulgar and called it miserly.

There are more people who come to eat steamed buns because the residents of Chang'an City feel that the topics they have been chatting about recently are too fucking exciting. He urgently needs to find a place to share his experience with some people he doesn't know, and the reason why most people don't have any worries in their hearts is because they now understand a truth, that is, no matter who sits on the dragon chair in Chang'an City, they will never embarrass them.

understands this truth because the people of Chang'an City dug up Li Yuan's ancestral grave, but now the people of Chang'an City are still alive and well, but the nobles don't know how many stubbles they have died.

The change of regime and the change of position in the court are far away from them, although they are close at hand, they are not involved in that level at all.

So they can sit in the bun shop and talk about their views on the current situation unscrupulously, and their mentality is far more relaxed than those officials and gentlemen in the court. Even if Chang'an City is broken by Yan Yunjun, the unlucky ones are those who have official skins, as for how many people will die in those who are officials, whatever, the more people who die, the better.

Wu Bushan, the owner of the steamed bun shop, is in a very good mood these days, because his shop is located in a remote area, and these days it has become a good place for the people to gather to chat and discuss the current situation.

Wu Bushan looked at those poor and ridiculously sour guests, who could drink three meals of wine with half a pig's ear, but pretended to be heroic and invited the neighbors who did not know each other to drink together, but no one refused to order, and he felt that there were too many happy things in the world. Sometimes, when he was in a good mood, he would also serve some side dishes such as vinegared radishes, and then enjoy the guests' thanks, whether sincere or fake.

It's just that when a ridiculously fat figure appeared outside the bun shop, his originally kind face suddenly became gloomy.

What a happy and beautiful scene in front of me, interrupted by the appearance of this damn fat man.

Sure enough, as soon as the fat man entered the steamed bun shop, the people who were chatting enthusiastically immediately quieted down, looked at each other, and then sat upright, looking at a few dishes in front of him, and commented that there was too much radish vinegar today, and it didn't taste crispy at all. The fat man didn't care at all about the hostile eyes of the people, sat down in a big way, and then ordered two and a half catties of scallion pancakes, a pot of old wine, and a few side dishes.

Ever since he was caught by King Yan in the bun shop and beaten up, the people know that this guy is from the government. There is no resistance to the fat people, and they are often friendly, after all, the fat people are the most favorable proof that this society is still beautiful, but if the fat man is a member of the government, the attitude of the people immediately changes greatly. In the eyes of the lovely people of Chang'an City, the fat man who is an official is naturally the scum who eats fat and fattened his belly with people's fat and ointment.

"Why didn't you say it?"

The fat man sneered and glanced around, and then said in a sarcastic tone: "When I was listening outside the door just now, weren't you all excited as if you were going to marry a concubine from a partial house?" Why am you all dumb when I come in? It seems that you are very welcome to King Yan into the city, did he promise each of you a yellow flower girl? ”

The fat man snorted coldly and said, "Based on what you just said, Lao Tzu can arrest all of you back to Chang'an Mansion and put them in prison!" ”

He turned his head to look at Wu Bushan and asked with a sneer: "Shopkeeper Wu, your store is really a good place." ”

Wu Bushan sighed, turned around weakly and ordered: "Replace two and a half catties of scallion pancakes with three drawers of dog meat buns for Lord Wan, and then cut one pound of beef, count me as invited." ”

Hearing this, the fat man's face changed greatly: "Beef is not allowed to have tendons!" No way...... I have to keep an eye on it myself! ”

After speaking, he opened the curtain and walked directly into the back kitchen, Wu Bushan hurriedly followed up and said as he walked: "You can't just go in this place, the gentleman is far away from cooking......"

"Do you think I look like a gentleman?"

……

……

"Before the lord leaves the city, he agreed that the fire will be the number, and the army will immediately attack the city."

Wu Bushan looked at the fat man and said word by word: "But it is extremely difficult for my people to get close to the West Inner Garden, and it is even more difficult to get close to the Xuanwu Gate, that person was originally the easiest to start, but he was transferred out of the palace by Li Yuan...... Speaking of it now, only you, a dead fat man, have the best way to start, how to put this fire, you have to think of a foolproof plan. ”

Wan Yulou grabbed a piece of beef and put it in his mouth, and said with some dissatisfaction while chewing: "If Lao Tzu can think of a good way, why don't you come to cheat and cheat?" ”

He sat down, his hands moving ridiculously fast. Not long after, a plate of cooked beef was swallowed by him and swallowed into his stomach: "Although I am still leading Xuanwuwei now, Lao Tzu's status has also plummeted after Li Jiancheng died." was not implicated because Li Jiancheng was killed, which is already Lao Tzu's blessing. It's nothing that Xuanwuwei's men are close to the West Inner Garden, the key is that you asked me to take a group of guards of the Forbidden Palace to the city gate with dry firewood to light a fire, but I am afraid that if I can't get there, I will be shot into a hedgehog by random arrows. ”

"Porcupine!"

Wu Bushan corrected two words.

Wan Yulou glanced at him and said, "Originally, this was that guy's errand, but now it falls on my head...... If you do a good job, there is no reward, and if you don't do well, you will be wronged, you say that I am not wronged. I haven't slept well in the past few days.,If you don't sleep well, you won't eat well.,If you don't eat well, you're getting thinner and thinner.,The only good thing about getting thinner is that his mother's cock looks a lot bigger...... But I haven't figured out how to set this fire yet. ”

Wu Bushan looked at him and sneered: "Not long after you trained in the Military Inspectorate, you were sent to Chang'an to do things, I can understand that you have not much knowledge in such a small place for a long time. ”

These words were extremely sour, and Chang'an City became a small place in his mouth.

"Do you know what the Second Department of the Military Inspectorate does?"

Wu Bushan turned around and threw a few dog legs aside from the vat where the dog meat was placed, took out an oversized gunpowder bag from the vat and slammed it in front of Wan Yulou, and said proudly: "The lord said that success is always reserved for those who are prepared. ”

Wan Yulou was shocked, jumped back far away and shouted, "Fuck! You fucking put this thing in the kitchen every day? Aren't you afraid that the fire will blow up when you get close! ”

Wu Bushan said faintly: "I'm afraid...... So every time you come, I take it out and check it out...... Although this industry is from the village, I can't say anything if you don't pay for food, but why do you see your face every time...... Do I have an urge to die with you? ”
