There is already a bit of summer feeling in the air, the ** of spring is gradually coming to an end, a large area of green has replaced the purple and red earth, the wheat fields on the land of Guanzhong have been yellowed, and there is a thriving scene everywhere, and the early summer of the seventh year of Tianbao is coming.

On the morning of this day, a group of soldiers on horseback walked on the official road east of Chang'an, led by Li Qing'an, who had just returned from Yangzhou, according to the plan, he trained in Jiangdu for half a year, including two months of school inspection in Beijing, and it was the time to return to Beijing at this time, not only him, but all 24 border generals will lead the army back to Beijing one after another to accept the review of Li Longji, the son of the Tang Dynasty.

His army could not enter the capital, and could only be stationed outside the city, so he first led a few people into the capital, and came to meet him by the eldest grandson Quanxu of the Zhonglang general of the Wanqi battalion.

"I haven't seen you for more than four months, General Li seems to be a little darker and thinner than before, I thought that the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River were moist, and General Li would become white and fat."

"How can there be such a good thing, archery and horseback riding every day are a little more tiring than fighting in Anxi."

Li Qingan shook his head with a smile, and asked again, "Did the others in Anxi come back?" I mean Li Siye, them? ”

"Li Siye and Lifei Yuanli just arrived yesterday, and Tian Zhen hasn't come back yet, so it's probably only in the past two days!"

"More than four months have passed in a flash, but it feels like many years have passed."

Li Qingan looked at the majestic and majestic Chang'an City, he was full of emotion in his heart, no matter how prosperous the south of the Yangtze River was, he still missed this magnificent city in the world.

After walking for a while, I saw the Mingde Gate from a distance, and there was a fork in the road not far in front, and the other side of the fork led directly to the Tang Western Regions.

At this time, more than 20 soldiers on horseback walked from the official road to the west, all of them were burly and dressed in armor, and they looked majestic.

The eldest grandson Quanxu suddenly waved and shouted, "Brother Geshu, please stay!" ”

The soldiers in front of them all stopped their horses, and when they looked back at this side, the general led by them suddenly recognized the eldest grandson Quanxu, and he greeted him with a big laugh, "It turned out to be the eldest grandson's virtuous brother, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

The two dismounted and hugged each other affectionately, and the eldest grandson Quanxu gave him a punch and asked with a smile: "Brother Geshu, why did you enter Beijing this time?" ”

"It was the emperor who summoned me to Beijing, saying that there was a major matter to discuss."

"Could it be that Longyou is going to war?" Eldest Sun Quanxu asked excitedly.

"It may be a possibility, but it's not certain."

The general looked at Li Qing'an and asked with a smile, "Who is this?" ”

"Come on! Let me introduce you to it. ”

The eldest grandson Quanxu pulled Li Qing'an and introduced him with a smile: "General Li, this is the new Longyou Jiedu envoy General Ge Shuhan. ”

When the eldest grandson Quanxu shouted General Ge Shu just now, Li Qingan guessed the identity of this person, and it was indeed Ge Shuhan.

'The Big Dipper is high, Ge Shu carries a knife at night', Ge Shuhan was a chivalrous prodigal son when he was young, and when he was older, he changed his past wrongs, joined the army in Longyou, after dozens of battles, and laid a great reputation, at the end of last year, Wang Zhonghei was convicted and sentenced to death, he temporarily acted as a festival envoy, Ge Shuhan was entrusted by the generals of Longyou to enter Beijing to intercede, Ge Shuhan kowtowed behind Li Longji, 'The words are generous, At this time, Li Longji had decided to appoint Ge Shuhan as the envoy of the Longyou Festival, and in order to buy the hearts of the generals of Longyou for him, he gave him a favor, pardoned Wang Zhonghe's capital crime, and demoted him to Hanyang Taishou, and Ge Shuhan also won the name of loyalty.

Li Qing'an had heard of Ge Shuhan's name when he was a teenager, and he couldn't help but take a closer look at this general who was prominent in the Tang Dynasty, only to see that he was sturdy, with exceptionally broad shoulders, a big copper face, a full forehead, and a pair of brush-like thick eyebrows, his eyes were blazing, making people feel that he seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

Li Qing'an smiled slightly, hugged his fists and said: "In Xia Anxi Li Qing'an, the prestige of General Geshu, I have long been like thunder.

"It turns out that you are the first arrow in Anxi, Li Qing'an."

Ge Shuhan also hurriedly replied: "I have heard of General Li's cavalry shooting, and I have been looking forward to seeing it for a long time!" ”

He looked around, put his arm around Li Qing'an's shoulder, and laughed in a low voice: "General Li killed An Lushan's majesty twice, which makes my heart happy!" ”

"Where! It's not that I'm good, it's that they're too bad. ”

"Well said!"

Ge Shuhan laughed, "Let's go!" Let's go to Beijing together, and I will definitely invite you to drink. ”

A group of people joined forces and walked into the Mingde Gate together, at this time it was the morning when there were many people, the city gate was full of people, very crowded, and everyone slowed down their horses.

"General Li, how do you feel about going to Yangzhou for military training this time?"

"It's not bad, I found some talents, which were buried at the bottom before."

"General Li is right!"

Ge Shuhan also said with great emotion: "Why can the border army produce heroes, but the Central Plains Military Government rarely sees talents, the key is that the Central Plains Military Government does not rely on war to select talents, but relies on sloping whiskers and bribes to curry favor, so most of the real talents are buried." ”

The two walked and said, entering the city cave, the city cave is more crowded, the gate guards have to check one by one before entering the city, so the progress is extremely slow, seven or eight carriages lined up in the middle of the city cave, pedestrians walk on both sides.

Li Qing'an suddenly saw the word 'Pei' written on the flag on the front carriage, so he asked the eldest grandson Quanxu: "The carriage at the front is from Pei Xiangguo's mansion?" ”

The eldest grandson Quanxu looked at it and said with a smile: "Exactly!" It should be Mrs. Pei who went to the temple outside the city to make incense and returned. ”

He pointed to a young man on horseback next to the carriage and said, "That's Pei Kuan's eldest grandson." ”

Li Qingan saw a string of Buddhist beads hanging on the carriage window, so he smiled and nodded, this Pei family didn't put up any shelves, and went into the city with ordinary people.

Suddenly, there was a scream in the distance, and I saw several carriages rushing towards the city gate at a gallop, surrounded by a large group of horseback attendants and guards, and several big men with whips to open the way.

"Get out of the way! Get out of here! ”

The people and the peddlers were so frightened that they ran to both sides, and if they were a little slower, they were whipped with leather whips, leaving blood marks on their bodies, and the soldiers knew these carriages, and did not dare to stop them, so they got out of the way.

Ge Shuhan frowned, and asked the eldest grandson Quanxu, "Who are these?" Is it so strong in the capital? ”

Li Qing'an had already seen the triangular apricot yellow flag planted on the carriage, with white characters on a black background with gold edges on it, and the word 'Yang' was written on it. ”

"It's them!"

The eldest grandson Quanxu nodded and said: "Looking at the appearance of the two carriages in front, it should be Yang Xuan and Yang Qi, one is Guanglu Siqing and the other is Sinong Siqing, both of whom are mediocre people who do nothing and only know how to walk horses and fight dogs all day long. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage of the Yang family rushed into the city cave, and the city cave was even more congested, and several carriages that were already in the city cave suddenly couldn't move forward or retreat, and they were crowded together.

"Get out of the way! Make way for Lao Tzu! ”

Several big men who opened the road were very fierce, and they whipped the horsemen who drove the car, and Pei Kuan's grandson, who was accompanying the car, was about to step forward, but the old housekeeper behind him grabbed him, "Childe, let me tell me." ”

The old housekeeper stepped forward and said with a smile: "A few uncles are angry, we are Pei Xiangguo's family, we don't mean to get in the way, we really can't retreat....."

He hadn't finished his sentence, 'Smack! With a crisp sound, there was a bloody mark on the old butler's face, and he screamed, covered his eyes and fell to the ground.

The people around him shook for a while, and they were so frightened that they retreated back, Li Qing'an behind him could see clearly, he couldn't help but be furious, when the polo game was played, Pei Kuan helped him a lot, and today the Pei family was humiliated, how could he stand by and watch?

He urged the horse to step forward, but the eldest grandson Quanxu was so frightened that he grabbed him, "General Li must not control it, these five Yangs are so powerful in Chang'an that even the princess and prince dare not provoke them." ”

Ge Shuhan also squinted his eyes and scolded: "Damn it, it's just a few minions, are you so arrogant?" ”

"They're dogs! Without the support of their masters, would they dare? A small businessman next to him said resentfully.

Li Qing'an endured this breath and watched the development of the situation coldly, the old housekeeper of Pei Mansion fell to the ground with a whip, and Pei Gongzi wanted to rush forward to reason, but he was desperately held by his entourage.

"Childe, you can't come forward."

"Let me go, bastards!"

"Yu'er, don't be rude!"

The carriage door opened, and an old lady dressed in a second-grade brocade dress stepped out of the carriage, she glared at her grandson, and the young man stood with his hands down, and said angrily: "Grandmother, the old housekeeper stepped forward to say good things, but they hurt people." ”

"I know, stand down!"

The old lady stepped forward to look at the old housekeeper's injury, only to see that his left eye was broken, the flesh and blood were blurred, and it had been scrapped, her eyes were full of anger, and she suddenly turned around and angrily reprimanded the Yang family: "This walk always comes first and then comes, we see that we are going to enter the city, but you block the way and beat people, do you really not take the law of the Tang Dynasty in your eyes?" ”

Seeing that the old woman had a noble temperament and was dressed in second-grade clothes, several big men who opened the road didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so they turned around and asked the carriage for instructions: "Master, it seems to be Pei Shangshu's wife." ”

There was a snort in the carriage, and Yang Quan's hoarse voice came out, "What if it's Princess Yipin?" ”

Several big men comprehended, raised their whips and pointed at the old lady and scolded: "Old thief, if you dare to fart again, Lao Tzu will whip you to death!" ”

When had the old lady been insulted like this, she trembled with anger, pointed at the other party, and suddenly fainted in anger.

"Old lady! Old lady! ”

The maids shouted in shock, Pei Kuan's eldest grandson Pei Yu was furious, drew his sword and threw himself at the big man who insulted his grandmother, and before he could rush forward, several big men rushed up, hugged his waist and legs, lifted him against the wall, grabbed his hair and kicked him hard.

The others were so aggressive that they wanted to settle accounts with the Pei Fu family, and several Pei Fu maids were so frightened that they picked up the fainted old lady and ran back.

Just as the Pei family left the carriage, a hidden arrow 'whoosh!' The arrow was so strong that the whole arrow sank into the horse's dung door, and the horse neighed, jumped up with its front hooves, and kicked the two whip-wielding men away, one of them was kicked off his neck and died on the spot, and the other man was kicked off a dozen ribs, and his back hit the wall heavily.

The pain in pulling the horse was unbearable, dragging the carriage, and crashing into the opposite carriage like crazy, and the entourage around Yang Quan's carriage shouted and retreated one after another, 'Boom! With a bang, the horse hit the wall of the carriage, and the carriage shook violently, and the frightened screams of Yang Xuan and the two women came from inside.

The horse was sent to the wild surname, desperately rushed forward again, and there was a loud bang, Yang Quan's carriage was knocked over and overturned, dozens of soldiers guarding the city gate saw that the situation was critical, and they slashed and stabbed the horse, and in a moment, the crazy horse fell in a pool of blood, and the carriage it pulled also overturned, and the city gate was suddenly in chaos, and Yang Quan's guards hurriedly stepped forward to rescue Yang Quan in the carriage.

Ge Shuhan looked back at Li Qing'an in surprise, but Li Qing'an shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, indicating that he had nothing to do with him, Ge Shuhan smiled, gave him a thumbs up, and waved his hand: "Let's go!" ”

The group walked through the city gate hole along the wall, and when they passed by Pei Yu's side, Li Qingan leaned out and pulled Pei Yu, who was on the ground, on the horse's belly, and rushed out of the city gate hole with Ge Shuhan and galloped into Suzaku Street.

Turning to a corner, Li Qingan put Pei Yu down and said with a smile: "Pei Gongzi, two fists are hard to beat with four hands, don't fight with them." ”

Pei Yu recognized Li Qing'an, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, bowed down and said, "Thank you General Li for saving me." ”

"No need, say hello to Pei Lao Xiangguo on my behalf!"

Li Qingan arched his hand and urged the horse to chase after Ge Shuhan.

．．．．．．．．

Walking to the Suzaku Gate, Ge Shuhan smiled at Li Qing'an and said, "General Li, let's break up here, and I will come to you for a drink tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”

Li Qingan arched his hand and smiled: "Okay! I greet General Geshu. ”

"That's good! We'll see you again. ”

Ge Shuhan waved his hand and took his retinue to leave.

When Li Qing'an secretly shot the small crossbow, the eldest grandson Quanxu was beside him, he saw it very clearly, and couldn't help but be a little worried: "General Li, you shoot that horse with an arrow, once the Yang family finds out, they will not let you go." ”

Li Qingan smiled disdainfully and said: "General Changsun, the eldest husband should be worthy of his heart in the world, since I, Li Qingan, dare to make a move, why am I afraid of their retaliation?" Thank you, General Changsun, for coming to pick me up today and take my leave. ”

As soon as he clenched his fists, he urged his horse to gallop towards Colliers' mansion, and the eldest grandson Quanxu looked at his back and shook his head worriedly.

After a while, the group came to the front of the Gaolishi Mansion, and just saw Steward Luo coming out, Li Qingan laughed loudly: "Steward Luo, don't come unharmed!" ”

"Ahh It's General Lee. ”

Steward Luo was pleasantly surprised, "When did General Li come back?" ”

"I just arrived in Chang'an, let me ask you, can my three sisters live here?"

"In! At! They're all here, and they're all doing well! ”

Li Qingan pointed to several of his subordinates and said to Steward Luo: "These are my subordinates, please ask Steward Luo to arrange it for me." ”

"No problem, General Li don't worry!"

He stepped forward and said to a few sergeants: "Come with me, you will bathe and change your clothes first, and then I will lead you to dinner." ”

Li Qing'an got off the horse and ran to the inner courtyard, he didn't see them for four months, he really remembered the panic in his heart, rushed all the way to the Furong courtyard, faintly heard the sound of the piano in the courtyard, and just arrived at the courtyard gate but saw it like a painting.

Picturesque was stunned, she suddenly burst into ecstasy, as if she had an incredible discovery that the whole world didn't know, and the ecstasy in her heart grabbed her, and the blood vessels in her whole body became violently excited for a while.

"Oh my God! It's big brother. She was so excited that she shouted, "Sister, look who is back." ”

Li Qingan laughed loudly, picked her up on his shoulders, and strode into the yard.

"Big brother, let me go!" Picturesque smiled and knocked Li Qing'an on the back.

Walking into the courtyard, Li Qingan put down the picture with some embarrassment, there was a piano under the apricot tree in the courtyard, and there were two young women sitting next to her, both of them were generally beautiful, one was his poetry, and the other was not Xiaolian, but a dance dress.

"Big brother!"

Rushi stood up slowly, and the whimpering and happiness that she hadn't thought of at all suddenly came over her heart, so strong that she trembled all over, so that she couldn't say a word.

Wuyi also stood up, she hadn't seen her for four months, she had become more beautiful, her ice muscles were clear, her white dress was long, her black hair like a waterfall was draped over her shoulders, her beautiful and refined temperament was still there, and when she suddenly saw Li Qing'an, a trace of imperceptible crystal flashed in her deep pool-like eyes.
