Li Heng's bitter cry was so painful that no one paid attention to it, and his own warriors pushed him down, knelt on the ground, and bowed to An Lushan.

An Lushan held the seal, Rao felt that this Zen ceremony was just a superfluous move, and at this time he couldn't help but grin and smile heartily.

At the moment when he grinned, he saw a figure shaking outside.

At this time, his vision was already quite bad, and he only saw someone shaking in the distance, but he didn't know who Lu Dao was. But since that person was standing so far away, An Lushan guessed that he had come to deliver an urgent report on the military situation at that time.

Following An Lushan's gaze, everyone turned around and looked over there.

Of course, this Zen ceremony was not held on the street, but in a large courtyard outside the Daming Palace, everyone looked at the courtyard gate, and saw a dirty person being supported by two people, who was probing his brain over there.

"Defeated?" Wang Wei thought to himself.

If he won the battle, of course he would not be so embarrassed, and the stains on that person's body would be bloodstains nine times out of ten.

What everyone was thinking at this time was that on the battlefield of the Western Front, Ye Chang might suddenly launch an attack and collapse An Lushan's defense on the Western Front, otherwise there would not be such an embarrassed figure.

An Lushan squinted, and Yan Zhuang next to him saw that the situation was not good, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Licheng, the hundred officials kneel and worship the new king!" ”

Only then did everyone realize that now was not the time to be curious, and a very serious and solemn Zen ceremony was being held.

However, whether it was An Lushan on the stage or the hundred officials under the stage, they didn't have the mind, and everyone dealt with it hastily, this attitude made Yan Zhuang very dissatisfied, but seeing that An Lushan didn't care, he didn't have a seizure.

I'm afraid that An Lushan's mind is the same as others, and it is all on the soldier who probes his brain.

This so-called Zen let the ceremony end hastily, and before the hundred officials dispersed, An Lushan summoned the soldiers to the front.

The rest of the people dispersed, but Wang Jin followed Liu Luogu and was talking and laughing with him, but Liu Luogu's eyes looked at An Lushan from time to time, obviously worried about the news brought by the soldier.

"What, Tongguan was lost like this?"

An Lushan suddenly screamed, his facial features were distorted and deformed because of anger.

"King, this is true, really, our way back to Fanyang has been cut off!" The soldier cried bitterly.

"What about Cai Xide, what about others, why don't you come to see me?"

"General Cai was hit by lightning fire, the city wall collapsed, I don't know whether I was alive or dead, I still took a detour to escape back...... Now the Tang army is pouring into the pass, king, go, go......"

Before the soldier who reported the news finished speaking, he was suddenly kicked in the jaw by An Lushan, and the whole person flew out upside down.

Today was originally a day of great joy for An Lushan, but his joy was completely destroyed by this sudden news. He was already moody, but at this moment, he was even more out of control, and directly ordered to drag the soldier out of the army and behead him.

Hearing this order, Yan Zhuang was afraid of things, and he couldn't keep his voice: "The king...... Your Majesty, the Holy One, and suspend the wrath of the thunder, Shi Siming is now rushing to Tongguan, thinking that he will definitely be able to recover Tongguan soon......"

Hearing this, An Lushan was a little angry, and after calming down, he understood what Yan Zhuang meant, if the soldiers who came to report the news were cut down without being rewarded, then what news would there be in the future, who would dare to send it?

"Take him down, so that he can be entertained, and besides, keep your mouth shut for me, don't leak the news!" An Lushan looked left and right, all of them were his cronies, which made him feel a little relieved: "If you leak the news, watch your head!" ”

Most of his soldiers were from Fan Yang to Pinglu, and the most loyal to him were Hu people of all ethnic groups. If you tell these guys that their way home has been cut off, I'm afraid that they will be dispersed immediately.

As soon as he thought of this terrible consequence, An Lushan gritted his teeth: he only thought that Ye Chang would fight him in a decisive battle under Chang'an City, but he never thought that Ye Chang would use the trick of cutting off his way back. Thinking about it, he felt physically and mentally exhausted: if it wasn't for the intrigue with Li Heng, which took him a lot of energy, how could he be so negligent?

At this time, he is completely looking for a scapegoat, he and Li Heng are not infighting, and they will only focus on Ye Chang, after all, there is not only Ye Chang himself, but also the old emperor Li Longji, as long as the two control any one person, the overall situation is basically set.

He ordered secrecy here, and in the distance, Wang Jin left as if nothing had happened. When he returned to his house, he showed joy on his face and immediately came to Wang Wei.

"Brother, great joy, great joy!"

Wang Wei has been sullen these days, although he is not ashamed of Li Heng, but after all, Li Heng is the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and after the coup d'état, he became the son of heaven in Chang'an, An Lushan usurped the throne like this, as a minister of the Tang Dynasty, he usually boasted of his loyalty and integrity, but he did not dare to stand up and shout, which inevitably made him a little ashamed and uneasy.

Hearing Wang Jin's happy face at this moment, he perked up, got up and said, "Ye Chang won the battle again?" ”

"Exactly, oh, it's not Ye Chang's side, it's Tongguan, the officers and soldiers somehow recovered Tongguan!"

"Tongguan?" Wang Wei took a breath, his head was full of mist: "How is this possible, Ye Chang's main force is in the west of Chang'an, and now he is still in the Jincheng area, how can he ...... Why did you get to Tongguan? ”

"It must be a strange soldier under Ye Changbu!" Wang Jin said: "Since Tongguan has been recovered, plus some time ago, I vaguely heard that Pujin Pass has fallen into the hands of officers and soldiers, brother, do you know what Lu Dao looks like, this is a closed door and beating dogs, and the back road of An's rebellion has been broken!" ”

Wang Wei is not very familiar with military affairs, but after Wang Jin's explanation, he also wanted to understand, and couldn't help but be moved: "As far as I know, Yan Gaoqing is in Changshan, and he and Yan Zhenqing are brothers!" ”

Changshan is very close to An Lushan's nest, Yan Gaoqing is there, at this time An Lushan's return road is cut off, Yan Gaoqing can contact Liaodong as long as he exerts a little force. The two sides attacked together, and An Lushan's Fanyang lair was to be recovered by the Tang army!

The long-gloomy situation in the Tang Dynasty seemed to have dawned in an instant, and Wang Wei was also overjoyed, and the depression of these days was reduced.

"Not only that, but I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time." Wang Jin grinned and smiled: "The thief keeps his mouth shut, and the news that Tongguan has been lost is not allowed to leak, but I want to do the opposite, publicize it, and always teach him to be uncomfortable!" ”

"Brother Xian, even so, be careful!" Happy to return, but hearing that Wang Jin was going to do such a risky thing, Wang Wei was startled, he thought for a while, and gritted his teeth: "This matter can't be done by the virtuous brother alone, if there is anything wrong, our brothers can't keep it, let's do it together, but we must be cautious!" ”

"What my brother said is, why don't I come to discuss with my brother how to get things done, and not let the thieves find out."

The two discussed a few words in a low voice, and they both felt that it was quite difficult, they were just scholars, how could they spread the news all over Chang'an, but they didn't make people suspicious?

After thinking for a while, there was a sudden sound of knocking on the door outside, Wang Wei was secretly shocked, got up and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"There's a Dufuzi who asks to see you." The servant outside the door said: "He said he came to find Jinlangjun." ”

"Dufuzi?" Wang Wei pondered for a while and looked at Wang Jin: "Is it your friend?" ”

"I don't remember any Du Fuzi coming looking for me at this time......" Wang Jin shook his head.

"That Du Fuzi said that he was introduced by Chen Erlang."

Chen Erlang...... Please, please, invite him in! Wang Jin's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and then he shouted.

The sudden change in his attitude made Wang Wei startled: "Who is this?" ”

"Who?"

"Chen Erlang."

"What Chen Erlang, it's the Chen Xiaoer we have seen in the past and often sells newspapers here with us." Wang Jin lowered his voice: "He is Ye Chang's person, and when I have a relationship with Ye Chang, he is the one who delivers the news in the middle!" ”

When Wang Wei heard such a reminder, he immediately thought of who it was. This Chen Xiaoer is also a strange person, lonely and poor in his early years, he made a living by being an apprentice for a meal, and later changed to sell newspapers after the newspaper appeared, accumulating some belongings, and now he has not only become a newspaper wholesaler, but also opened a small bookstore. is young and doesn't look good, but he talks and behaves, but he is not a layman.

He turned out to be a dark chess game played by Ye Changbu...... It's really unexpected!

"What about this Dufuzi?"

"Nine times out of ten, it was someone sent by Ye Chang......"

Hearing that it might be someone sent by Ye Chang, Wang Wei's heart beat a little faster, and he ordered the servant to welcome the person into the guest room and go over by himself. When I got there, I smiled.

"It turned out to be you, Du Zimei." He smiled and arched his hand.

It was Du Fu who came.

Du Fu, who infiltrated Chang'an, looked extremely capable, which was different from Wang Wei's abundance. After he met Wang Wei and Wang Jin, everyone took their seats.

The two sides observed each other for a while, although they had dealt with each other before, but the friendship between them was not deep, and it was inevitable to test when they met at this time. Therefore, the topic of conversation between the two sides began with Du Fu's newspaper "Minbao".

"Zimei, the name of "Minbao" was drafted by Ye Gong, as far as I know, Ye Gong is arrogant and uninhibited, so he does not know how to be biased and does not avoid the name of Taizong. Zimei is a knowledgeable person, why didn't she suggest it at the beginning, and you can change it to "Hooligan Daily" or "People's Daily". Wang Jin said with a smile.

"At the time of Taizong, he did not shy away from it, in Wei Gongzheng's article, there were many useful 'people', and today's articles are inscribed, and they are also quite useful to 'people'." Du Fu said very seriously: "Although Fu is short, I also know that Emperor Taizong has issued the "Two Non-Biased Orders", and I dare not hurt the name of Emperor Taizong's generosity and benevolence, so I did not shy away from the word 'people'. ”

"This ......" Compared with Wang Wei, Wang Jin's knowledge is slightly weaker, and he is not very familiar with the "Two Non-Biased Orders", so he couldn't help but look at Wang Wei, Wang Wei nodded, indicating that it was true, and he smiled: "Even so, there are many people who avoid it." ”

"Brother is secretive, if you have to avoid it, in the future, my brother's descendants will not be able to be admitted to the Shiji." Du Fu said.

Speaking of this, Wang Jin laughed after being stunned for a moment: "It is worthy of Du Zimei, she is used to sharp teeth in the newspaper, I can't talk about you!" ”

"Zimei came to Chang'an at this time, but it's not the time." Wang Wei coughed, leaned forward slightly, and whispered, "An ......"

Before he finished speaking, Wang Jin said: "Zimei came to Chang'an at this time, it was the right time, our brother just had an incident, which was quite sad, and now when I see Zimei, the big thing has been done!" ”

Du Fu's spirits lifted, he originally wanted to inquire about An Lushan's Zen drama here, but he never wanted to catch up with the "big event". At Chen Xiaoer's place, he knew that although the Wang Wei and Wang Jin brothers had fallen into the hands of thieves, they were still facing the Tang Dynasty in their hearts, so he said angrily: "For the country and the people, I don't dare to refuse, the second brother just orders!" ”

He didn't ask about the details and directly agreed, which made Wang Wei secretly praise in his heart, but Wang Jin chuckled: "Duke Du knows that Tongguan has been recovered?" ”

This news is absolutely strong, Du Fu has been sneaking into Chang'an City for two days, and the news from the outside world is not very smooth, so he doesn't know the news. He was surprised and delighted, and couldn't help but stand up: "Really? ”

"Naturally, it is true, and today's Zen ceremony of the thief was disturbed by this news." Wang Jin said: "The thief blocked the news, and after that, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to communicate the news inside and outside Chang'an City, and I want to announce this matter to the whole city, so I turn to Du Gong for help!" ”

"How do you want me to do that?"

"The original printing equipment of the "Minbao" in Chang'an City is now hidden? I wonder if it fell into the hands of thieves? ”

"You mean?"

"Print hundreds of copies, post this news all over the streets and alleys, and within a day, the whole city will know about it!"

Speaking of this, Wang Jin was quite proud: "If the people of the whole city know the way, the rebels will also know the way, if the rebels know that the way back is cut off, especially we can add oil and vinegar to him, saying that the rebels' nest has also been recovered by the official army, so that the rebels will no longer have the will to fight!" ”

"Good! Du is responsible for this matter! When Du Fu heard this, he couldn't help but applaud.

The three of them secretly discussed, and after a while, they drafted the article, Du Fu memorized it, and without further ado, he had to go out to do it. Wang Wei and Wang Jin sent him to the door of the guest room, Wang Jin suddenly grabbed his arm, sighed and said: "This matter must be cautious, Du Gong is a person, our brother is naturally trustworthy, but the thief is cunning, you can't do it, Du Gong must remember to use trustworthy people!" ”

"Don't worry, if there is any accident, Du will also bear it alone!" Du Fu said angrily.

"It's not that my brother is afraid of death, but I really have to leave a useful body, and when Ye Gongbing comes to the city, my brother can respond internally." Wang Jin bowed his hand solemnly: "I will entrust the lives of millions of people in Chang'an Beijing to Duke Du!" ”

Although Du Fu felt that Wang Jin's repeated explanations were a bit contrived, he was a bloody person, and he would never regret it even if he responded. After he turned to leave, Wang Wei sighed and reproached Wang Jin: "Du Zimei is a sincere person, why should the virtuous brother tease him like this!" ”

"Where is the trick, brother, don't underestimate him too much, can a sincere person be the chief writer of "Minbao"?" Wang Jin smiled: "Besides, what I said is not false, you and my brother, how can he compare!" ”

Wang Wei shook his head, knowing that his own brother is like this, in addition to caring about his brother very much, he really can't be innocent about others. He could only look at the place where Du Fu had the news, and said with a little sadness: "I hope everything goes well for him this time!" ”
