2. External strife and internal troubles

Seeing that An Lushan was going to continue, Moro Tanzhao hurriedly stopped his eyes, it seemed that there were some things he didn't want his junior brother to know.

"Your Majesty, you are also half Turkic, we are a family, how could a poor monk lie to you. It's just that Na Chi Song Dezan was bent on reconciling with the Tang Dynasty, and he was helpless to let the poor monks persuade him. ”

"Hehe, since Tubo Zampu is dedicated to Tang, what does this Peacock Dharma King mean by coming this time?" An Lushan turned to the Peacock Dharma King and asked.

The proud peacock was very displeased by An Lushan's words, clasped his hands, closed his eyes slightly, and didn't hear An Lushan's question.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Moro Tanzhao thought about it, and felt that it was more appropriate to answer this matter by himself, so he immediately stepped forward and made a generous statement: "Your Majesty does not know, since the retreat of King Baoxiang ten years ago, sects have risen in Tibet, and some tribal leaders have begun to support their own sects in their own territories, and some people have even made suggestions to Zampu, asking for the abolition of Buddhism's status as the state religion. The peacock junior brother was angry, so he went down the snowy mountain with the poor monk and came to help His Majesty. ”

When the Peacock Dharma King heard this, he coughed lightly, as if to suggest that this senior brother should not talk nonsense.

Looking at the situation, among the three of them, Moro Tanzhao and An Lushan are old acquaintances, but they put the Peacock Dharma King in the first place, but he is like a servant of his junior brother, and he thinks that this Dharma King must have something extraordinary.

"Of course, my junior brother has been reading Buddhist scriptures since he was a child, practicing tantric Buddhism, and at the age of eighteen, he was given the title of Peacock Dharma King by the Treasure Elephant Dharma King, as the teacher of the two kingdoms of Tubo. I heard that Tantric Buddhism in the Tang Dynasty was prosperous, and there were three high monks of King Kong Zhi, Good and Fearless, and Bukong, known as the three great scholars of Kaiyuan, not only there were many folk believers, but even Emperor Xuanzong and a cadre of clan relatives and magnates also respected and edified. In particular, it is said that many disciples under the seat of the monk Bukong have very high secret cultivation and vast mana, how can my junior brother put them in his eyes, so I will come here for a while. ”

The so-called three great scholars of Kaiyuan, headed by King Kong Zhi, are tantric monks from Tianzhu, who came to the Tang Dynasty to preach the Dharma decades ago, opening the heyday of Tantric Buddhism. And the monk of Bukong among them is the apprentice of Vajra Zhi.

Listening to what Moro Tanzhao said, An Lushan understood a little bit in his heart, it seems that although this Peacock Dharma King has a very high cultivation, he is a little arrogant, presumably he used the method of agitation and the like to deceive people.

When King Guangping, King Jianning and others recaptured Chang'an, the monk Bukong and his disciples secretly contacted each other and communicated with each other, so that he lost Chang'an. Resentment grew in my heart.

Thinking of this, An Lushan added fuel and vinegar and said: "I see, not only is this non-empty monk powerful, but even his apprentices are all masters in Tantra. It's a shame to say that the battle in Chang'an was really a headache for the widow, but I don't know this Peacock King-"

An Lushan was originally a radical method, and deliberately did not finish his words.

The Peacock Dharma King had already understood what he meant, and a contemptuous smile appeared on his face, and he looked around, but when he saw that the flames in the big tripod were flourishing, he immediately recited the incantation, only to see that the flames in the tripod suddenly rose, and a vajra appeared in the flames.

King Kong Lux stepped out of the big ding, with the burning flames all over his body, and slowly came to the outside of the main hall, only to see the demon god raise his head and spit out, and suddenly a huge fire dragon soared into the sky, burning the entire Luoyang into a sea of fire.

An Lushan couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw it, put down Emperor Dayan's shelf, clapped his hands again and again, and apologized for his own gaffe, and said a polite word.

The Peacock King responded proudly, with a smug and evil smile on his face.

An Lushan immediately asked people to set up another banquet and eat and drink with the three of them.

"Moro is still unclear in the hearts of the widows. ”

"Oh, Your Majesty, please. ”

"The old fox has been running crows for decades, how can it be so easy for King Guangping and Guo Hua to kill the old nest?"

"Well, this - there has been a traitor inside the crow recently, and he is targeting sabotage everywhere, and according to his ears and eyes, the actions of Guo Yu and King Guangping have been secretly helped by this person. ”

"Even so, with the strength of the Crow Group, it shouldn't be wiped out in a few days, right?"

"Actually, in the month before that, the old fox already knew that someone was going to deal with the crows, and the poor monk thought that he would take the opportunity to turn against Tang, but he didn't expect him to dismiss a few of us. ”

"Oh, how so?"

"Yes, that's right. This person is different from us, I have almost never met a person like him, no one knows what he is thinking, sometimes I think that even a few of us are in his calculations, but he and I take what we need and use each other, and I don't care about him, but it's a pity that Monk Huaicao and Yu Guilin, the two top masters, and the more than 2,000 sets of Xuanjia are cheaper than the kid of King Guangping. ”

"Well, I've dealt with him a bit, and this guy is really elusive, sometimes you think he's thoughtful, sometimes you think he's indecisive. ”

"But it doesn't matter, the loss of the battle of Zhongnanshan is just a drop in the bucket for the crows. This time, the old fox not only asked me to bring the treasure map, but also specially instructed me to go to Xie's house in Jiangnan. ”

"Jiangnan Xie family?"

"That's right, presumably the old fox has a deep friendship with the Xie family, and the Xie family has promised to form an alliance with His Majesty. ”

The Xie family in Jiangnan is one of the eight wealthy families of the Tang Dynasty, and they are rich. and married another wealthy Wang family for generations. Combining the strength of the two families, even if it is the Li Tang royal family, they must give them three points of face.

If Xie Jiaken funded himself, he would have a few more chances of winning by completely conspiring to win Li Tang's country.

"Hahahaha, this person is really weird, he is willing to give up such a powerful power, but if it weren't for that, he wouldn't be called an old fox. Hahahaha. ”

"yes. I have always wondered that with my experience in the Crow Group over the years, the Crow has existed for at least a hundred years, and has been working hard to restore the country, and now Li Tang is in danger, but he is still hiding in the shadows and refuses to raise troops. ”

"Then you came with the Peacock Dharma King and Xiao Zhuge this time to stay and help the widow?"

"They will help Your Majesty. The poor monk still has to go to the Western Regions, and now the old fox is also actively planning in Chang'an, I believe that it will not be long before the siege of Luoyang can be lifted. ”

"Oh?"

This is also what the old fox meant, after he heard that the Nine Roads Jiedu made the coalition army and the Hui soldiers besiege Luoyang, he thought of a few ways to help His Majesty get out of trouble. ”

"What's the method?"

"Your Majesty will know when the time comes. ”

"Hahahaha, this old fox, I'm starting to like him a little. ”

The snow in Chang'an is not lighter than that in Luoyang. All things have converged their vitality and lurked in the depths of the earth, quietly waiting for new life, a new turnaround.

In the palace, in a female officer's room.

The red candle is flickering, and a female official is pitying herself to herself. The red candle has been burning for a long time, and the candle flowers are too lazy to cut them, and the gurgling candle tears keep flowing.

The female officer gently stretched out a finger as white as a green onion, stirring the blood-red candle tears that were dripping down. It's hot. She couldn't help but let out a low wry smile, and what really corroded and burned her heart was a thousand times more than this candle tear.

This female official is Shang Gong, Xue Yiliu. In the harem, the expenses for food and clothing, gold and silver coins, silk, and utensils are all under the control of the Shang Palace.

She is also a celebrity next to Queen Zhang. Empress Zhang gave her a very secret task. She knows a lot of the queen's secrets, and she has handled a lot of them herself. It's just this one, but it makes her happy and sad, and she can't stop for a while.

Because the queen asked her to talk to the ugly ghost of Li Fuguo about a matter, this matter is not trivial, and it can even be said to be an earth-shattering event, and the ugly ghost has long been fighting his own idea.

She was secretly sad, but she never sighed or shed a single tear.

Remembering that she was also of noble birth, but she was tricked by fate and reduced to becoming a slave and a slave of the enemy, the unwillingness and humiliation in her heart had already rolled away her tears and sighs.

The matter assigned by the queen was good for her. I have been secretly planning for many years, isn't it just to mess up this brilliant Tang Dynasty?

It's just that I didn't expect to lose my innocence in exchange. Oh, I'm distressed, I already have someone I like in my heart.

She remembered that perverse and indifferent face, she just liked such silent and even cold people. Maybe I didn't like him, but it's easy to make up my mind about today's events.

How much shameless things have you done for others, and how much have you done?

Heck, forget it, he wouldn't like himself, and if he knew about the bad things he did, he wouldn't like himself.

"How can a person as arrogant as Brother Dugu like himself like him. ”

Xue Yiliu's mind fluctuated and he was anxious, and he inadvertently uttered a mutter.

Finally, once again, she pushed herself to the edge of the cliff. She told herself that no one in this world would pity her, let alone love her.

With a slight movement of her fingers, it seemed to push someone she didn't even want to see into the abyss.

The burning red candle snapped and fell. She extinguished the lights and walked briskly out of her room, walking towards the darkness that had been waiting for her.

In a secret room, the four corners were burning with blazing charcoal fires, warm.

"Okay," the aging man let out a soft snort, "I didn't expect Xue Shanggong to make such a sacrifice for the queen, and it is also the blessing of the queen's mother." ”

"Lord Li, is this an agreement to the queen's request?"

"Nope. ”

"You-"

"Hmph, do you think that if you accompany the Sprinkle family to have a happy life, you can drive the Sprinkle family at will. ”

"That's not what the slave family meant. ”

"Giggle, don't be afraid. The Sprinkle family is teasing you, do you really want to help the queen so much?"

"Lord Li's words are wrong, helping the queen mother, isn't it helping us. Now the military power of the Tang Dynasty is in the hands of the King of Guangping and the King of Jianning, and now the Nine Roads Festival has made the coalition army besiege Luoyang for a long time, and the city is about to be broken. If this Luoyang City is really recovered in the hands of the King of Guangping and the King of Jianning, wouldn't the national fortune of the Tang Dynasty be another world, where is there a place for you and me. ”

"Hehe, I can't imagine that you, a little girl, have such insight. It's just that even if the immortal exploits of King Guangping and King Jianning are stopped at this time, what can they do? After all, the queen's own children are still too young. ”

"The little prince is small, but he will always grow up. ”

"I'm afraid people won't wait. ”

"Then it depends on the father-in-law's means, doesn't it?"

Xue Yiliu pretended to smile charmingly, and his fingers teased the clothes draped on his body.

He vaguely felt that the woman in front of him must be more than just the queen's henchman.

"You women, what a femme fatale. But any man who is hated by any woman will never end well. ”

Li Fuguo said this, and there was no lack of appreciation in his tone.
