Volume 1: Who Breaks Through the Void by the Stars Chapter 463 The Arrow Is on the String, and the Night Will End
The fourteenth year of the Great Tang Tianbao is about to pass, tonight's Chinese New Year's Eve, tomorrow will be the fifteenth year of Tianbao.
An Yuanguang looked at the sky blankly and saw that the clouds were thick, obviously, it was not only the New Year that was coming, but also a spring snow.
Chen Xuanli was wearing a fur coat, and when he saw him looking up at the sky, he couldn't help but smile slightly, but there was a little coldness in his smile.
"Yuanguang, aren't you inappropriate today?" He said to An Yuanguang.
"General." An Yuanguang heard his voice and hurriedly saluted him: "Xue Qianqian was on duty today, but he was unwell, I thought that there was no one in my family anyway, so it would be better to be on duty in the palace, it would be more lively here." ”
Hearing him say this, Chen Xuanli patted him on the shoulder as a sign of comfort.
He had already heard that just yesterday, Luo Yuanguang exchanged his exploits for the life of his adoptive father Luo Fengxian, and it was done under Yang Guozhong's hands. However, after Luo Yuanguang took Luo Fengxian out, he bowed down and said that he had repaid his kindness, and he should return his surname and set up his own door.
At this time, Luo Fengxian escaped death, where did he dare to say anything, he naturally accepted it, so Luo Yuanguang became An Yuanguang again, and then Luo Fengxian went back to his hometown to retire. After this incident came out, most people in Chang'an City praised An Yuanguang, thinking that he was loyal and righteous, and no one thought that he should not break away from Luo Fengxian.
"How can a dog father have a tiger?" everyone commented.
"Depending on the situation, there will be a north wind tonight, and it will be quite cold." Chen Xuanli said slowly.
"That's what the general said." An Yuanguang said respectfully.
"Did Yang Xianggong tell you anything recently?" Chen Xuanli seemed to say casually.
"Yang Xiang just wants to concentrate on his work, so that he can serve the general." Luo Yuanguang said.
"Not for me, but for the saints." Chen Xuanli said as he pouted slightly. This is the key, the reason why he is affectionate to An Yuanguang on the surface, but actually has a little suspicion in his heart is here. As a general of the forbidden army, he can only be loyal to the Son of Heaven and the person who sits on the throne, and should not get too close to the foreign ministers.
Especially a powerful minister, if he really has too close a relationship with the generals of the forbidden army, sooner or later it will be the way to get into trouble.
If An Wuguang couldn't figure this out, he would be blessed now, but it wouldn't be long before his life would be in the hands of others.
Chen Xuanli was thinking about it, but saw a person appear in front of the courtyard gate and tilted his mouth at him.
"General Gao?" Chen Xuanli stepped forward quickly and saluted the man.
"Come with me." Colliers.
Chen Xuanli's expression changed slightly, when he reached their status, of course he would not take a random walk when he was full, there must be something to say, and Gao Lishi asked him to accompany him.
"What does General Gao command?" The two walked to a place where no one was, and after Chen Xuanli stood still, he said to Gao Lishi
Gao Lishi raised his face, his eyes were deep, and he stared at Chen Xuanli: "Xuanli, do you remember what happened back then?"
"Back then?"
"We, and the dead ghost king Mao Zhong, do you remember that we acted with the saint?"
Chen Xuanli trembled slightly, and then smiled: "Remember...... Why don't you remember, you can't forget it in this life"
"Our forty years of wealth all came from that year, and all the names we had before and after our lives also came from that year. When I was in the event that year, don't look at my impassioned appearance, in fact, my legs are trembling because I am afraid of ...... It was as if I was in some kind of extreme danger, invisible, colorless, and tasteless, but I could feel it, so I was afraid."
Gao Lishi's words made Chen Xuanli's expression very strange, how could people like them easily confide in their hearts, how could Gao Lishi just talk about it just to recall the old things with him
What exactly is Colliers trying to say?
"Today, I feel that way again...... I dare not say it, I dare not say it to the saints, I only dare to say it to you...... Do you understand? ”
Just as Chen Xuanli was speculating about what Gao Lishi's intentions were, but when he heard Gao Lishi say such a thing, Chen Xuanli's whole body trembled, and his eyes glared at Gao Lishi: "What does General Gao mean by this?" ”
"You're getting closer to Yang Xiang." Colliers said slowly.
"I am only loyal to the Son of Heaven, and Yang Xiang is just perfunctory with him." Chen Xuanli heard this, relaxed slightly, and said slowly: "If General Gao is worried about this, then it will be too much." ”
"I hope so......" said Colliers in an imperceptible voice.
Yang Guozhong packed up his things and glared at his sons: "Tonight's New Year's vigil, you guys, stay at home honestly"
"Father, do you still want to go out?"
"The old man is going to the palace to accompany the Son of Heaven to keep the New Year...... Tomorrow I will congratulate the Son of Heaven on spring. After tonight, it's the New Year......"
When he said this, his heart moved slightly, and he felt that this was a good sign.
After tonight, isn't it the New Year?
With the joy of this good omen, he walked quickly through the small door and arrived at the next door of the Lady of the Kingdom of Qiu, but the Lady of the Kingdom of the Republic of China was still dressing up.
"Why are you still dressing up?" Seeing this, Yang Guozhong couldn't help but be a little impatient: "I really don't understand, why do you girls spend so much time on grease and powder every day...... Didn't Ye Shiyi say in the book "Naturalism" that the lead powder you put on your face actually contains toxins that may harm your life, why are you still desperately applying them to your face? ”
"If there is no beauty, it is better to live a short life." Mrs. Qiu Guo said eight words.
Yang Guozhong suddenly felt disliked, Fang Cai's mood was gone, "short life" is not a good word
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Mrs. Qiu Guo changed a few sets of clothes, and then picked out a set of bright red ones to wear on her body, and the two of them went out together, riding in the same carriage, and headed in the direction of Xingqing Palace.
"Tonight, we must let the saint make up his mind, as long as the saint makes up his mind, our Yang family will not have to worry about wealth in the next twenty or thirty years." Yang Guozhong whispered in the car: "Second sister, you have to do your best in this matter."
"I want to do my best to deal with Ye Chang, and I want to do my best to abolish the crown prince, who are you and me?" Mrs. Qiu Guo suddenly felt a little irritable in her heart: "Why don't you go and ask Niangniang?" ”
"Niangniang, she doesn't care about these things, you know, although now Yongwang ......"
Speaking of this, Yang Guozhong was silent. Since the eleventh year of Tianbao, he began to monopolize power, and at that time he pondered to support a prince to replace Li Heng. It's just that his number one enemy at that time was still Ye Chang, so the matter was not urgent, now all Ye Chang's positions have been dismissed, and many people inside and outside the court are pushing Ye Chang to be the lord - as long as Ye Chang becomes the princess of Shou'an, he will not want to leave Chang'an City one step further.
Of course, he will still do it to Ye Chang, but it is not as urgent as it is to do it to Li Heng.
"Will An Lushan come today?" Mrs. Qiu Guo asked.
"This kind of thing, how can he be missing" Yang Guozhong lowered his voice: "His 100,000 army is in Jin, I have sent people to inquire these days, this guy runs the border army like an iron bucket, better than Ye Chang, after this incident, I have to think of lifting this fight, I look at this guy, sooner or later it will be a rebellion"
"That's right...... I think it's good to replace him with An Yuanguang. Mrs. Qiuguo's eyes lit up.
Yang Guozhong was so angry that he didn't say anything for a long time, but Mrs. Qiu Guo didn't notice it, and when she saw that he didn't respond, she pushed him: "What do you think, use An Yuanguang to replace him?" ”
"Are you willing to put your bearded man in the ice and snow?" Yang Guozhong couldn't help but say.
"Ah, that's what I'm saying, if I really let him out, I won't be able to see him......"
"Okay, okay, don't talk this nonsense, I'll go to Xingqing Palace soon."
In front of the gate of Dexingqing Palace, Yang Guozhong got out of the carriage, and then saw An Yuanguang. When Mrs. Yu Guo saw him, she suddenly felt that her body was soft and her bones were soft, and she walked over with her eyes full of eyes: "Yuanguang, are you on duty today?" ”
"Shifts with people." An Yuanguang smiled and saluted: "Yuanguang greets Madame." ”
"Ah, what are you doing so politely with me, it's okay here, if someone bullies you, just tell me, I'll go to the saint and sue him"
"Yes, Mrs. cares, and Yuanguang will always remember it in my heart." An Yuanguang said.
"Don't say anything polite, who's here now?" Yang Guozhong stepped forward and said.
An Yuanguang did not hide it, and reported to Yang Guozhong one by one the people who had arrived, including the kings of the same generation as Li Longji, the princes and grandsons of the Ten Kings Palace, the Hundred Sun Palace, and the princesses of various families, as well as Gao Lishi and other cronies. The important ministers of the DPRK and the Central Committee, at present, only Yang Guozhong is present.
"An Lushan hasn't come yet?" Yang Guozhong asked.
"Dr. Ann hasn't arrived yet."
"Why are you so slow......" Yang Guozhong muttered.
An Lushan's actions were actually not slow, he was standing tall at this time, and he was in the courtyard of his mansion. In front of him, there were groups of sergeants, all with cold expressions, looking up at him.
"It's going to be windy...... An Lushan closed his eyes, feeling the north wind blowing on his face.
"According to my military orders, you all go out," he said, after composing himself, "be careful." ”
The sergeants responded in unison, and then rushed out of An Lushan's mansion.
The location of the house is in the southeast of Qinrenfang, he went out of Qinrenfang to the north, and not far away he saw Wannian County Ya. Seeing this yamen, An Lushan's heart moved: "When Tianbao was eleventh year, Ye Chang was here to personally quell the chaos?" ”
"Yes." Liu Luogu looked a little nervous.
"Tut-tut......" An Lushan snorted twice, and then said nothing.
His team continued to move forward, and soon, passing through Xuanyang Fang was Pingkang Fang, which was also the location of Ye Chang's old residence.
"This is Ye Chang's old house?" An Lushan pointed to a place with a horsewhip.
"Yes, next to Ye Chang's old mansion is Li Linfu's house."
"I know, I know, when I came here to see Li Linfu, Li Linfu welcomed me as a king...... Wang, this person, is ten times more intelligent than Yang Guozhong, it's a pity, he was captured by Ye Chang. ”
An Lushan looked at these buildings and suddenly felt a little emotional. When Li Linfu was there, this mansion was a political center of the Tang Dynasty, and after Li Linfu went to the prime minister, Ye Chang sold the mansion here and moved to Guangdefang on the edge of the West Market.
If Ye Chang still lives here, An Lushan has to pass by his mansion every day, which is somewhat uncomfortable.
"Let's go, let's go." An Lushan said: "Let's go to Xingqing Palace, this time in Xingqing Palace, I don't think we can see Ye Chang...... That's a bit of a pity. ”
"The doctor can go to Guangdefang Ye Mansion to meet him." Yan Zhuang blinked.
"That's a natural way to go." An Lushan laughed hoarsely: "If you don't go to see him, how can you make me happy."
During this period of time, An Lushan ate Ye Chang and suffocated more than once, from the Hot Spring Palace to Chang'an, his father and son were scolded and beaten, and they were holding back their anger, if he didn't vent his anger in front of Ye Chang, he would feel regretful for the rest of his life
However, thinking of Ye Chang, his expression was a little strange.
If there is anyone in Chang'an City who makes him fear, there is no doubt that it is Ye Chang. Li Linfu made him afraid at the beginning because Li Linfu could understand his every move in advance, but Ye Chang was not, Ye Chang made him afraid because he couldn't judge what means Ye Chang still had hidden in his hands and didn't take it out.
"Ye Chang, what's going on these days?" An Lushan asked Liu Luogu again: "Especially today, is there any movement on his side?" ”
"There has never been any movement, everything is as usual, these days, except for the grocery shopping, no matter the old or the young, they have done enough tricks behind closed doors. However, the leaders of the Andong Chamber of Commerce and other chambers of commerce have been visiting his house more frequently recently. ”
"I have to pay the bill at the end of the year." Yan Zhuangdao.
An Lushan squinted, thought for a while, and looked at his son An Qingzong next to him: "It's a pity that Qingxu is not around, if Qingxu is also here, it would be good...... How is Shi Siming now, has he left?
"The news from the urgent report, he should also leave at this time, but in order to avoid accidents, he should go to Hedong first."
"Urge him to hurry up......" An Lushan said.
He always felt a little uneasy in his heart, although their plan was clearly perfect, and so far, no trace of the worm had been detected. But when he thought that Ye Chang was in Chang'an City, and he didn't know what he was doing, An Lushan felt uneasy.
The horse team began to move eastward, in the direction of Xingqing Palace, An Lushan restrained his thoughts and took a deep breath.
"I must let Ye Chang kneel in front of him......"
"Father" He was pondering, and An Qingzong beside him suddenly spoke.
An Lushan turned his head: "What's the matter?" ”
"Ye Chang will hand it over to the child" An Qingzong looked hideous: "Let the child go"
"You go...... Not impossible, but you may not be his opponent. ”
"He is only 400 people to protect the mansion, and the children will bring more soldiers and horses when they arrive."
An Lushan shook his head, he knew his son's thoughts, and the problem now was that there were no more soldiers and horses. He does have an army of 100,000 troops, but most of them are stationed outside the city, and they can't enter the city when they are idle, and now there are not as many people and horses in the city as he imagined, but there are many places to control.
