Zhang Zhongyao did not want Cai Yu to arrive in Dunhuang much earlier than Wu Yingying, so after entering the hinterland of Anxi, the journey slowed down, often only half a day a day, and in the second half of the day, the red sun hung high and the climate was hot, so he looked for a cool place to camp, or to stay in a hotel. Cai Yu also happened to observe the scenery of Hexi carefully, only to feel that the people were simple, but they were more stubborn than the mainland, rich in products, and had the benefits of agriculture and animal husbandry, and there were Hu people everywhere and traders, and the religion of Fanbang was prevalent, and Buddhism was more prosperous than that of the Central Plains. When living in Bianliang, Cai Yu learned from the pain, originally regretted that he was addicted to Zen, but along the way to visit many monks and great virtues of the altar, came into contact with many Buddhist theories that had just been transmitted from Tianzhu to Middle Earth, did not feel the hardships of the trek, but a little happy and forgetful, but also full of longing for the legendary place where the Buddhist scriptures of the high monks gathered, I heard that Wu Yingying repeatedly sent people to the West to seek scriptures, Cai Yu secretly praised in his heart, this son deleted and changed the text of the Middle Earth, there are many perverse and deviant actions, this matter of seeking scriptures, but it is the credit of thousands of generations.

This long journey, finally came to Dunhuang City, all the sergeants and Cai Yu are relieved, Dunhuang City after Wu Yingying's rectification, business and travel prosperity is better than before, everywhere is bustling crowds, even with selling snacks to play juggling and singing small songs of all kinds of artists are also located, here you can hear the latest West from the latest thousand and one nights of the book, you can also watch the Middle Earth Tang Taizong "thousands of miles to send Beijing Niang" acrobatics.

The sergeant did not have the right to tell pedestrians to avoid the road when walking in the city, so An Sidao and the others could only lead the horses and crowd Cai Yu in the streets. Suddenly, there was a commotion in the crowd in front of them, and passers-by avoided them one after another, only to hear the scone vendors next to them whispering, "Mrs. Zhou is here." They cleaned up their stalls on both sides of the street, and after a while, they automatically gave way to Mrs. Wu Yingying Zhou out of the center of the street, and passers-by on both sides were tiptoeing and looking in curiously, wanting to see Mrs. Zhou, who was like a celestial person.

Before long, I saw a carriage galloping from across the long street under the escort of ten cavalrymen, and suddenly stopped in front of the Central Plains acrobatic stall, only to hear Mrs. Zhou in the carriage ask softly: "Captain Lu, but is there a new acrobatic troupe from Middle-earth? What kind of story are they playing?" Lu Zhongjie glanced at the sign hung up by the troupe, leaned down on the saddle and said in a deep voice next to the car window: "Mrs. Yubao, it's 'Cai Erlang sends Jingniang thousands of miles away'." After the week inside, there was an "oh" sound, and then quietly, Lu Zhongjie ordered the coachman to continue to catch the car, and the ten horsemen slowly left with the carriage in their arms.

"Obediently, I have been setting up a stall here for two months, and I have only seen Mrs. Zhou once, and I have only heard her voice until now, and she is really like a fairy, and her ears cannot be washed these days. "You don't pee like your pig's head. The petrified vendors in the market began to laugh and laugh loudly, and the crowd became lively and noisy.

Only Cai Yu, the prince of Longxi County, who was hiding on the side of the road, had a gray face and was stunned.

The actor on the stage next to him said: "You and that boy have been with you for thousands of miles, you must have promised him your body." Now your brother said to his father that he wants to recruit you as a husband, what do you think?" The pretending Jing Niang replied: "The son is honest and selfless, and he is a brother and sister with the child, similar to a relative, and there is no flirtatious words." Today, I hope that my parents will stay at home for him, treat him for ten days and a half months, and do his best, this matter cannot be raised. After speaking, he sang the fashionable tune of Middle-earth, but Cai Yu in the audience was stunned, whether it was chanting the lyrics in white or the deafening sound next to him, he was completely unconscious. Bianliang in July was hot and humid, and this summer was especially sad for Zhao Jiong, who brought back two arrows from the Gaoliang River. The wound festered and grew into a carbuncle, even if it was a royal doctor who rejuvenated his hands, he could not eliminate the pain of tossing and turning into the bone marrow, and what was worse than the maggot-like pain of the tarsal bone was the nightmare that entangled Zhao Jiong from time to time, whenever he was drowsy, he had not slept sweetly, there seemed to be countless ghosts whistling and screaming in his ears, and when he woke up, he had a splitting headache, chills all over his body, and his underwear was wet.

Sometimes I dreamed that the Khitan army was in Bianliang, but Shi Shouxin, Cao Han and other generals were like the original Gaoliang River, and they did not save the soldiers, and watched themselves being captured by the Khitans, and this group of people set up Zhao Dezhao as the emperor, and everyone in the world applauded, sighing that this villain who murdered his eldest brother had finally suffered retribution. Sometimes I dreamed that Cai Yu, who was burned to charcoal, and Meng Xu, who was bleeding from the seven orifices, shouted injustice together, black and white impermanence but looked like a Xu official, holding a shackle similar to the hall of Kaifeng Mansion, and wanted to take himself to the place of the king of Hades, seeing that a pair of thighs were put into the flesh grinding plate, Zhao Jiong woke up in shock, lifted the yellow silk covering his legs on his knees, but saw that the scab of the arrow was cracked, and the carbuncle flowed out a lot of pus, and the pain in the heart was similar to what he felt in the dream.

"Someone!" Zhao Jiong shouted loudly, pointing to the wound on the thigh with a trembling finger, "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" The chamberlain didn't dare to glance at the official family's stock, so he responded tremblingly and trotted all the way away. In the humid heat of summer, in order to prevent the wound from covering and worsening the pus, even the noble Song Dynasty officials could only cover it with thin silk below the double strands, and the festering and ugly wounds could be faintly seen. And Zhao Jiong is most jealous of the eyes of others falling to that place, when receiving courtiers, they all live behind the covered table, if the eyes of the eunuch guards occasionally stay there and are noticed by him, it will immediately attract the wrath of thunder, and the dog's life is not guaranteed.

"Zhao Dezhao, the king of Wugong County, asks to see His Majesty. Seeing that the official woke up from a nap, the eunuch on duty did not dare to slack off and was busy reporting. "Pass him in. Zhao Jiong straightened his yellow robe, unconsciously looked left and right, and the officials who came in to meet him stood on the opposite side of the Hu bed table to report on the big and small matters, and it was impossible to see the ridiculous appearance of almost no inch under him. If there was a bronze mirror next to the bed, he would see that his eye sockets were deeply sunken.

Zhao Dezhao strode forward, his face was still a little bit of Zhao Kuangyin's shadow, but it was much younger than when Zhao Kuangyin died, and he was dazzlingly young. "Official. Seeing that Dezhao respectfully performed the power of his courtiers, Zhao Jiong breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "Rixin, the heavenly family also has family affection, and the family does not have to be restrained." There is no one else at the moment, so sit down and talk. What's the matter?"

Zhao Dezhao sat on an embroidered pier next to him according to his words, and said: "There is no side, Weichen is here, just because there are some complaints in the forbidden army recently, and the reward for attacking Taiyuan has not yet been issued, and Weichen does not dare to hide it, so he has come to report to the official's family." ”

When Zhao Dezhao mentioned the forbidden army, the corners of Zhao Jiong's eyes twitched, his left eyelid actually jumped unconsciously, and he said in a deep voice: "Then according to your opinion, what should I do?"

Zhao Dezhao didn't feel that the official family was already angry, and arched his hand and said: "The court has already set a precedent, meritorious service will be rewarded, the first month of the Northern Expedition, the soldiers worked hard for several months, towards the white blade and the arrow, to destroy Taiyuan, this sincerity will be rewarded for the great merit also, after that, although there is the defeat of Youyan, but for the above should be rewarded and punished clearly, Dezhao is the imperial court, and the official family should reward the soldiers of the three armies for conquering Taiyuan." "Zhao Dezhao was originally a quiet and indifferent person, only likes to study, not good for fame and fortune, although he had the opportunity to be the emperor, and he also heard rumors that it was this second uncle who killed his father, but in the past four years, no matter how jealous Zhao Jiong was of him, he was always extremely tolerant of him in the face, and Zhao Dezhao gradually let go of his vigilance, and even today he did such a thing that was extremely offensive to the official family.

Zhao Dezhao said, the room was quiet for a while, Zhao Jiong tightly squeezed the armrest of the dragon chair with both hands, staring at Zhao Dezhao's hanging head, if he wasn't afraid of the world's leisurely mouth, he would almost behead this son the moment he learned that Shi Shouxin and other generals supported Dezhao, and there would be no future trouble. There are faint rumors, Qin Tianjian Warlock observes the heavenly phenomena, and after a few years, this big position will still return to the Kuangyin lineage. However, even if you are the emperor, some things have to be forbeared, and the history is terrible, and everyone is terrible. The lingering incense was wrapped in the pungent smell of medicine, quietly diffusing around the two of them, only hearing Zhao Jiong's increasingly heavy breathing, and finally he suppressed the anger in his heart, but with a hint of mockery, he said in a deep voice: "Under the city of Youzhou, there are many people in the army who want to support you. In this case, it is not too late for you to do this reward for the three armies in the future. After speaking, he didn't bother to pay attention to Dezhao, who was so humiliated that his face was already a little pale, and waved his hand to ask the chamberlain to take him out.
