When An Lushan's guard of honor was about to approach the Xingjin Bridge, there was a sudden situation in front of him, he stopped the car and drove the probe to see, it turned out to be two military academies holding horizontal knives in the street duel, but the left hand of the two people dragged the left and right hands of a woman with hair in their left hands, like a tug-of-war, the woman let out a heart-rending cry, and the light green skirt had long been stained.

His righteous son, An Shouzhong, stepped forward immediately and stopped the two of them in a violent voice: "Spread out!" Stopped in front of the lord's guard of honor, what kind of system! ”

The two of them let go of their hands, thrust their horizontal knives into their sheaths, and turned around with a snort of resentment.

According to An Lushan's temper in the past, he must pull these two military academies down and beat them with fifty military sticks each, but he is happy today, even if he is hit by the honor guard and delays the time to enter the Luoyang Palace, it doesn't matter, he beckoned with a smile and said, "Call those two captains to come forward." ”

The two came to the car and knelt on the ground and forked their hands: "Damn it, I unintentionally collided with the lord's guard of honor, and I ask the lord to punish him." ”

An Lushan smiled and asked, "Why are you two fighting?" Well, you say it first. ”

"Lord Qiqi, we were ordered to kill the remnants of the court when we entered the city, and occasionally entered a large family by the wall of this square, and saw that this little lady was born beautiful, and I wanted to take it with me as a concubine, but who knew that he broke out from the side, not to say that this lady was discovered by him first!"

"Nonsense, it's clear that I entered the house first to see the little lady, and you were happy to see the lust before you had the intention of snatching from the side!"

An Lushan raised his hand, and the two stopped arguing, and he walked down the iron car with his bones, walked between the two generals, and came to the woman with a disheveled hair.

The two lieutenants glanced at each other, each reluctant and regretful, thinking that the house sparrow was about to fly into the old quail's arms.

An Lushan pinched her chin and lifted it up, the woman's posture was indeed good, her eyes were desperate and unfocused. He let go of his jaw, lifted the sharp end of the other end of the Bone Rod, and plunged it into the woman's abdomen, then pulled out the hair, grabbed the hair and threw it aside, and wiped the blood stains of the Bone Rods on his dress.

The two lieutenants suddenly trembled, and did not dare to mention the belonging of any beauties, An Lushan leaned on his bones and said loudly in the middle of the avenue: "Manly man, he is fighting for his deeds, and he is talking about fists!" As long as you have great achievements, you don't have anything to want! Because a mere woman fought with each other, it hurt the love of the robe! Think about it, how many heroes and heroes in the world have their exploits folded on women! ”

The captains hurriedly kowtowed and admitted their mistakes: "What the lord taught us is that we are shallow. ”

An Lushan boarded the car, waved his hand and ordered the guard of honor to continue to advance towards the palace, the lieutenants and soldiers knelt on both sides, they had unconsciously changed to kneeling and saluting, because they had entered Luoyang, so the fat man in the car would soon be the emperor.

The car drove through the three bridges of Tianjin, entered the imperial city from the end gate, the majestic and magnificent Yingtianmen appeared in front of him, the two sides of the gate hall are the towering three out of the que tower and the central gatehouse and the battlement tower form the five phoenix towers. This is the first gate in the world, even the Danfeng Gate of Daming Palace cannot be compared with it.

An Lushan takes a car along the palace gate and enters, after entering the Qianyuan Gate is the Ming Hall, this towering and majestic building is built in the period of Wu Zetian, compared with the palace built in the surrounding Sui period, she is more magnificent, the pattern is grand, the structure of the heaven and the round place is adopted, the octagonal tower is built on the top of the square hall, and the round building is built on the octagonal tower, its form is gorgeous and atmospheric, as if the palace of the heavenly court has descended to the world.

He stepped down in front of the Ming Hall, led the generals behind him to step on the stone steps and walked into the main hall, there are also three steps in the hall, An Lushan walked to the end of the imperial steps, and the dragon couch inlaid with gold was placed horizontally in front of the Nanmu screen. He bent down and touched it, then sat down.

Looking down from here, the generals in the hall are bowing their heads at his feet, and it feels so beautiful to be an emperor. Ashina Chengqing and An Shouzhong took advantage of the situation to bow down and bow: "The last general congratulates Your Majesty!" ”

Seeing this, the rest of the generals also stepped forward to bow down.

An Lushan held the bed with his hand and laughed contentedly, then walked down the stairs and said: "This Luoyang Ziwei Palace is actually the first palace in the world, and in my opinion, it is more imperial than Daming Palace. ”

Ashina Chengqing took the opportunity to step forward and persuade him: "The lord has conquered Hebei and Henan, and once he enters Tongguan, the world will definitely change hands." Why don't you take this opportunity to ascend the throne as the emperor and make things right. ”

He twisted his beard and smiled, thinking that only Chengqing understood my heart. An Shouzhong and others also stepped forward to persuade him: "I hope that the lord will ascend to the throne as soon as possible and reign over the world!" ”

When everyone is not sober, there are always a sober minority who stand up to point out the current situation, Yan Zhuang stepped forward and said: "Lord, the imperial army is now defeated, and the momentum has not yet recovered, why not take advantage of the victory to attack Tongguan in the west, if Tongguan can be broken, then Chang'an will be just around the corner." At that time, the lord could take the opportunity to go to Yangzhou, attack the south of the Yangtze River, enter Shuzhong, and dominate the world. Wouldn't it be more justifiable to wait until that time to ascend the throne? ”

Chengqing immediately retorted for An Lushan: "No, I think it is the right time to ascend the throne at this time, once Your Majesty ascends the throne and grants us official positions, everyone is justified, and everything can be carried out step by step." ”

"But now is the time to take advantage of the victory to pursue, the army led by Gao Xianzhi is defeated, and the follow-up soldiers and horses of the imperial court are weak, and our army will definitely be able to break through Tongguan. If this opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to take Tongguan when the imperial court gathers troops. ”

An Lushan twisted his beard and hesitated, the temptation of being an emperor is too great, far better than the pain of traveling, and his own body has already had problems, he can ascend the throne in advance, and he can also enjoy the fun of being an emperor for a while.

He bowed his head and said to Yan Zhuang euphemistically, "Otherwise, everything will be simple?" Let's speed up our preparations, and wait until we ascend the throne before planning to attack Tongguan? ”

Yan Zhuang knew that An Lushan had made up his mind, so he stood aside with his hands and stopped talking.

An Lushan laughed and said: "After I ascend the throne, I will have a reward, and I will reward you with the beauties and treasures in Luoyang Palace!" ”

At this time, two guards escorted a eunuch into the palace, but it was the director of the Luoyang Palace, and after An Lushan ordered someone to release him, he asked with a pleasant face: "I heard that Concubine Mei Jiang Caiping was sent to the Shangyang Palace by the emperor, do you know which palace she is in, can you bring it to me." ”

The eunuch knelt on the ground and trembled and said: "King Qiyu, Concubine Mei has already drowned herself in a well wrapped in white silk before you led your troops to attack Luoyang. ”

An Lushan felt sorry and said, "Then send someone to salvage it and find a secluded place to bury it." There are other gorgeous women in the palace, and they will bring them over to dance with me and the soldiers! ”

After An Lushan entered the Luoyang Palace, he immediately ordered people to arrest those ministers who refused to surrender, and after they were caught, they were directly killed without reporting to him. He also ordered the solemn and noble two to prepare for the enthronement ceremony, and everything was based on simplicity, and the enthronement must be completed on the first day of the new year.

……

Gao Xianzhi packed up the remnants of his troops and retreated to Shaanxi County, where he joined Bian Lingcheng who was waiting there, at this time there were only a few thousand men and horses left around him, and the soldiers and horses that Bian Lingcheng had left behind in Shaanxi County had far surpassed him. Not only that, Bian Lingcheng still remembered that after the battle of Xiao Bolu, Gao Xianzhi was intercepted and scolded by Meng Lingcha, the envoy of Anxi Jiedu, because of his private victory, but fortunately, he reported to the emperor that he raised his eyebrows. Now Gao Xianzhi is also the general of the right Yulin in the middle of the court, and concurrently serves as the third secretary of the Kaifu Yitong, this high position is inseparable from the help of his Bian Lingcheng, but Gao Xianzhi has not yet repaid his kindness.

Don't blame the eunuchs for being short-sighted and small-bellied, because they have no roots, which means that they have no future, so they naturally have to chase the immediate interests.

He thinks that Gao Xianzhi should give him an explanation, when this guy attacked the Western Regions Stone Country, he loaded thirteen camels with gold alone, and now it is not too much to repay him more.

He hinted openly and secretly many times, but Gao Xianzhi remained silent. Gao also did not discuss military affairs with him, and one person decided to withdraw from Shaanxi County and go to Tongguan to garrison. These two incidents caused Bian Lingcheng to be dissatisfied and planted the seeds of resentment for him.

An Lushan sought to ascend the throne and stop marching towards Tongguan, but Tongguan was also in crisis, and once there was no external oppression, internal struggle became a habit.
