On the ancient Yellow River beach, in the bleak autumn wind, two armies dressed in heavy filial piety are far away.

On the side of the Anxi Army, dozens of athletes were guarding both sides of the huge carriage. The white-haired Chen Xuanli knelt in front of the carriage and cried bitterly for a long time, his voice was hoarse, and finally stood up, without looking at Ma Xuan, stretched out his hand and grabbed the reins of the horse, and walked the way he came.

Ma Xuan waved his hand, and dozens of athletes escorted the carriage pulling the coffin and followed Chen Xuanli forward. After the coffin carriage, a smaller carriage also drove forward. Ma Ling urged Qinghai Cheng and slowly followed behind.

Zhang Xun led the horse and stood between the two armies, his expression was extremely gloomy, but the sadness was very light. After the carriage with the coffin passed, Zhang Xun stopped the carriage behind, and the curtain of the carriage was lifted, revealing a face with bright eyes and teeth, but it was a Turkic girl.

"Ma Xiang, who is this? What's the deal with letting her follow? Zhang Xun had undisguised disgust in his eyes, and pointed at the Turkic girl and frowned. He had already decided in his heart that Ma Lan was going to rebel, and he was quite polite in his title, but he was obviously extremely resentful of Ma Lan.

The Turkic girl was startled by Zhang Xun, and quickly lowered the curtain and shrank back. Ma Ling reined in the war horse, looked at Zhang Xun and smiled faintly: "This is the woman who was favored by the emperor, she already has a dragon seed on her body, the emperor has passed away, and as a courtier, she naturally has to send this woman over." ”

When Zhang Xun heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched violently, bowed slightly to the carriage, and got out of the way. Although she is just a little girl who was favored by the emperor, she is also the difference between monarchs and ministers, and she can't lose her courtesy.

The carriage of the Turkic girl continued to move forward, and the carriage containing Li Longji's coffin drove into the Longwu army, but Ma Lan did not continue to follow, and also jumped off the horse. looked at Zhang Xun with a smile.

"Tanhualang has now become the right minister of the Tang Dynasty, and it is really gratifying to be a great minister."

Zhang Xun snorted and looked at Ma Lan coldly: "Ma Xiang was ordered to escort the coffin of the first emperor, and he actually brought 10,000 horses!" Those who know that Ma Xiang's order is to escort the coffin, but those who don't know it think that Ma Xiangbing entered the Central Plains and wanted to plot against him! ”

His original plan was to kill Ma Lu when he received the coffin. Now the plan has been disrupted. 10,000 Anxi New Army, although he has not seen the attack of this army, Zhang Xun also knows that it is impossible to kill Ma Lan.

Ma Lan smiled and said: "Tanhualang left Chang'an to welcome the coffin of the first emperor, and brought 20,000 dragon warriors, is it too much?" ”

Zhang Xun said with a cold face: "This is Your Majesty's will. Your Majesty's golden body, you naturally have to be escorted by a large army when you travel, so as not to be conspired by Xiaoxiao. ”

"It's Your Majesty's will......" Ma Lan nodded and looked at the car driver in the Long Wu Army.

Li Longji's coffin had already arrived in front of the car, and a large number of courtiers and clans wept and worshiped on the ground. There was not the slightest movement in Li Heng's carriage.

Of course, there can be no movement.

Ma Lan raised his chin over there: "The coffin of the first emperor has been delivered, and Your Majesty has welcomed you here as a son of man, worthy of being the son of benevolence and filial piety - Tanhualang, why hasn't Your Majesty come out to kneel down to worship the coffin?" Is something wrong? ”

Zhang Xun said coldly: "Your Majesty occasionally feels cold, and I can't come out to worship the coffin for the time being." ”

Ma Ling shook his head and said, "If it's just the wind and cold...... Hehe, Tanhualang, Your Majesty has always been known for his benevolence and filial piety. If it was just a cold wind, how could His Majesty not come out to pay homage to the coffin of the emperor? Look at it this way. Your Majesty shouldn't be cold, and he's not lightly ill! ”

Zhang Xun said coldly: "What does Ma Xiang want to say?" When will Your Majesty come out to worship the coffin, how can you allow a courtier to put his beak on it! ”

Ma Ling smiled and said: "I came here with the soldiers and horses of the west to pay homage to the new monarch." Even if Your Majesty does not come out to pay respects to the coffin of the emperor, he should always let me wait to see him. What His Majesty's condition is, you have to see it with your own eyes to know. As he spoke, he walked forward.

Zhang Xun spread his arms in front of Ma Lan. Angry eyes shouted angrily: "Ma Renjie, you dare!" ”

Ma Lan stopped and said with a smile: "It's just to meet Your Majesty, why is Tanhualang such a big reaction!" Is there something hidden in it? ”

Zhang Xun slowly lowered his arms and said coldly: "Your Majesty has an order." I don't see you today. Whatever is there, I will discuss it with you. ”

Ma Lan looked at Zhang Xun and smiled: "I see." ——The last time we met in Chang'an, Tanhualang was not like this to a certain family, but now he has become the right minister, and it is really this time and that time. ”

Zhang Xun snorted coldly: "At that time, Ma Renjie was the dry city of the country, the god of the Tang Dynasty, Ma Renjie at this time, hehe, no one can guess your mind!" ”

This was already obvious, Ma Lan smiled faintly and nodded.

The others are all trivial, and he knows that Zhang Xun has a lot of doubts in his heart, such as why the Anxi army arrived so quickly, so that he was not prepared at all, such as why he brought this 10,000 army, etc., but it has been said that it has been said that there is basically no need to hide it anymore.

Zhang Xun thought that he was going to rebel and wanted to introduce him to the Central Plains, but he didn't expect him to bring so many people, and he didn't dare to act rashly at this moment. Zhang Xun only occupies a moral high ground now, and the 20,000 dragon warriors under his command are really nothing.

So now Zhang Xun seems to be aggressive, but in fact, he has no bottom in his heart. If you really want to rebel, the 20,000 dragon warrior army is not enough to stuff your teeth, and none of the princes and ministers of the clan present will be able to escape.

To be honest, Zhang Xun was not ready to meet himself here at all, and the place where he planned to meet was probably in Liangzhou. He set off ahead of schedule without receiving the edict, which had already disrupted Zhang Xun's subordinates.

So today, it is himself who takes the initiative, not Zhang Xun.

"Tanhualang, the power is monopolized, and one word decides life and death, how does it feel?" Ma Xuan looked at Zhang Xun and smiled.

"What do you mean by that?" Zhang Xun furrowed his brows.

Ma Lan said with a smile: "What Tanhualang has done in the past month or so, although it is for the sake of the Tang Dynasty, but according to the "Tang Liudian", I don't know how many times Tanhualang should die?" ”

Zhang Xun's face changed suddenly, and he stared at Ma Lan deadly.

Ma Lan looked at Zhang Xun and said coldly: "Is it that there are too many times of pretensions, and I don't feel it anymore?" I heard that Yongwang Li Lan has died at the hands of Tanhualang, hehe, Li Lan is His Majesty's favorite brother after all, if His Majesty is good, even if Li Lan is guilty of rebellion, at most he will be abolished as a concubine, how can he take his life! Zhang Xun, Zhang Xun, do you really think that what you are doing can hide from the eyes of people in the world? If a certain family wants your life now, do you feel wronged! ”

Zhang Xun was furious, a trace of flush appeared on his face, and he suddenly opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Spit again!" Ma Lan avoided it lightly, sighed and said, "It's really spit and vomit and get used to it, I don't know how long you can last!" ”

Zhang Xun wiped the corners of his mouth, and his expression became extremely hideous: "Ma Renjie, you monarch-killing thief!" ”

"The Emperor...... It was indeed choked, but after so many days, the body was already decaying, and there was no way to check it. The death of the emperor can also be said to have something to do with me, but I have a clear conscience. Ma Lan smiled faintly and glanced back at Anxi Xinjun, "Tanhualang wants to kill me, I know very well, that's why I brought so many people here, I just don't want to die here." As for whether Tanhualang and these people will die here, it is up to Tanhualang to choose for himself. The main purpose of my visit this time is to have a good talk with Tanhualang. ”

Zhang Xun gritted his teeth and said, "Ma Renjie, you are threatening me!" ”

Ma Lan smiled faintly and said: "What is the combat power of the Long Wu Army, Tanhualang should know that my ten thousand people only listen to me, and it will only take ten breaths to kill these people at most, and I will kill millions of people in the Hui Great Food, and I will never hesitate when I should kill, so what I said is the truth, not a threat." - Of course, Tanhualang, if I tell me about your pretensions, these people you brought will be chaotic without me doing anything, and the whole situation will get out of control. At that time, I can completely kill thieves and protect the country, and completely control these people, and it should be very clear what the situation will be when the time comes. To put it mildly, I took these people to Chang'an, and no one could stop me. So, this is really not a threat, but a situation, a fact. For the sake of the safety of Datang Sheji, Tanhualang should also talk to me. ”

Zhang Xun's expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth and was silent.

At this time, he naturally understood that there should be people from the Anxi Army around him. Even within the court, there are people from the Anxi army, otherwise his pretentiousness will not be known at all.

was originally going to angrily reprimand the national thief, but at this moment he was also in a mess.

At first, Jiao Zhao was still a little uneasy in his heart, but recently he is really used to it, and he has forgotten that he is doing this as Jiao Zhao.

The purpose of everything is for the sake of the Tang Dynasty's Jiangshan Sheji, he has a clear conscience in his own questions, but if the matter of the edict is announced, even if Chen Xuanli supports him, Long Wujun will immediately lose control. What's more, standing on the opposite side is the 10,000 Anxi New Army equipped with Yuanrong crossbows, and the Longwu Army is an ornament in front of this army, after all, this is the beast army that has just killed millions of Hui people in Mobei.

"I know that you and General Chen think that I am going to rebel, and we have been secretly preparing all the time. However, if I were you, when I was sure that the other party was going to rebel, I would immediately declare the other party a rebel, and then order the world's soldiers and horses to enter King Jingqin, instead of using such means, wanting to lead me to the east of the quicksand and then kill me. This kind of method is too much child's play. Ma Lan looked at Zhang Xun and said with a smile.

Between the two white-clothed and white-armored armies, Ma Lu and Zhang Xun stood opposite each other.

Zhang Xun's face was gloomy and terrifying, and after a long time, he stared at Ma Lan and said slowly: "Ma Renjie, you traitor!" Now that you're in the ascendancy, let's do it! What do you mean by saying so much now? ”

Ma Lan smiled slightly and said, "Tanhualang, I just want to tell you that if I want to rebel, you can't stop it at all." If I want to rebel, the Long Wu Army can't stop it. I will be able to enter Chang'an within ten days, and then you will be the sinner who buried the Tang Dynasty! Can you afford this infamy? ”

Zhang Xun gritted his teeth and remained silent.

"Of course, if I had done this, I wouldn't have told you so much, and you'd all be dead long ago. Since I want to talk to you, you should understand one thing. ”

Looking at Zhang Xun, who was clenching his teeth, Ma Lan smiled slightly: "I don't want to rebel, I just want to be a loyal minister." (To be continued......)
