Chapter 961: Whose City Is This?

Outside the west gate of Fu Qi City, Murong Zhong and Lu Chongyu led the generals to welcome the arrival of the Tang envoy.

Escorted by black-clothed and black-armored cavalry, Li Xuan wore a gold-silk robe on a black background and rushed from a distance.

Between the undulations of the sleeves, it seems that you can get a glimpse of the armor under the clothes.

When the Tuyuhun people above and below the city wall saw this scene, their breathing couldn't help but stop.

The rumors that had been circulating in the city for a long time suddenly appeared in front of them, and everyone couldn't help but stare at them.

"Phew!" Li Xuan's hand pulled slightly, the war horse stopped instantly, he raised his head, and his cold eyes swept over everyone.

In an instant, it was a sinking.

Those Tuyuhun warriors who had followed him on the expedition couldn't help but shudder.

Immediately, Li Xuan's face was already full of gentleness, riding on the horse, looking at Murong Zhong and Lu Chongyu, and arching his hand with a subtle smile: "Two, see you for a long time." ”

"I've seen the prince, the prince, please!" Murong Zhong stretched out his hand in a hurry, and said at the same time: "My father has prepared another courtyard in the city, please ask the prince and the envoys to rest for a while." ”

Li Xuan nodded, gently clamped the horse, and walked forward slowly.

Murong Zhong, Lu Chongyu, hurriedly got on the horse and followed.

Li Xuan said lightly: "Now in Tuyuhun City, how many foreign envoys have arrived?" ”

"Many, the countries of the Western Regions are very excited when they learn of Tuyuhun's restoration, and envoys from more than a dozen countries have arrived in Tuyuhun to participate in the Tuyuhun restoration ceremony." After Murong Zhong finished speaking, he subconsciously swallowed his saliva.

"Hmm!" Li Xuan bowed slightly, and said calmly: "As long as they don't come to see the excitement."

It is difficult for Tuyuhun to restore the country, as long as it is not restored today and destroyed tomorrow, I believe that everything will be fine. ”

Murong Zhong was stunned for a moment, and then said with a forced smile on his face: "It must not be like this." ”

Li Xuan smiled, stopped talking, and then rode into the city with two hundred black-armored cavalry.

In fact, everyone knows that all these envoys did not come to Fu Qi City with any good intentions.

The two great powers of the Tang Dynasty and Tubo went to war, and Tuyuhun re-established the country with the support of the Tang Dynasty, and once they successfully restored the country, it would surely bring great confidence to the small countries that supported the Tang Dynasty.

But once they return to the country today, they will be destroyed tomorrow, and when the time comes, it will not only be Tuyuhun who will be slapped in the face and ridiculed, but also Datang.

The countries of the Western Regions will also lose confidence in Datang.

However, Tuyuhun will forever lose hope of a resurgence.

Li Xuan's words pierced Murong Zhong's heart like a sharp knife.

His face was ugly and terrible

Koji Chongyu followed to the side, looking at this scene with a face full of disbelief.

Even the mouth kept open, forgetting to close it.

When the king of Nanchang was in Chang'an, wasn't this the case?

Why did a dashing and handsome king of the dynasty become such a cold and cruel killing god when he arrived at the border.

The bitterness in the words was something that Lu Chongyu had never thought of.

……

After crossing the city gate and entering the city, Li Xuan subconsciously looked towards the side alley.

Densely packed with black-clothed figures who couldn't see much, lying on the ground, chanting in a low voice.

The figure in black spread out from the alley, as if there was no end in sight.

Li Xuan turned around and walked towards the city with a calm face.

Have the followers of the Black-clothed Heavenly King spread to Fu Qi City?

Murong Zhong clenched his fists tightly and wanted to say something, but his mouth was subconsciously closed tightly, and he couldn't open his mouth at all.

Koji Chongyu on the side wanted to persuade, but he didn't know how to speak.

In fact, he had heard the legend of the black-clothed Heavenly King since he came to Fu Qi City, but he never paid much attention to it.

With the military exploits of the king of Nanchang, it is not a big deal to have some followers of Tuyuhun.

Not to mention that he is still the king of the court.

But yesterday, when Murong Zhong personally came to both sides of the city gate and commanded his subordinates to start blocking the road and forbidding the people to approach, Lu Chongyu felt the strong jealousy of the Murong clan.

But today, he was still on both sides of the city gate, as well as in the alleys on the left and right roads, and when he saw the dense crowd of black-clothed Heavenly King's followers, he suddenly felt a sense of horror.

Turning back, more black-armored cavalry were left in tents outside the city, and the barracks expanded rapidly.

Looking sideways at Li Xuan, who was walking first, a ridiculous thought flashed in his heart for a while: "Whose city is this?" ”

……

Raising his eyes, a splendid royal palace appeared in front of Li Xuan.

A sneer flashed in Li Xuan's eyes.

Some people like to boast of their wealth to be worshiped by others, but with this wealth of rebuilding the palace, it is better to use it to improve the combat power of the soldiers.

After all, King Tuyuhun has a limited mind.

"Lord Wang, please!" Murong Zhong pointed to a deep mansion compound on the side of the palace, and arched his hand and said: "There is a courtyard for the prince, it is a little simple, and I hope the prince will forgive the sin." ”

"It doesn't matter." Li Xuan waved his hand lightly, turned his head to look around, hundreds of elite cavalry were patrolling back and forth, Li Xuan squeezed out a smile on his face and said: "It's very good here, at least you can sleep well at night." ”

The corners of Murong Zhong's mouth couldn't help twitching, but then, he said: "Don't worry, Lord Wang, today's Fuqi City is already an iron wall, and the Tubo people don't want to come in easily." ”

Li Xuan looked sideways at Murong Zhong, the corners of his eyes lowered slightly, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

It's not obvious, but the disdain is clear.

Murong Zhong was just about to speak, but Li Xuan had already turned his horse and headed towards the other courtyard.

"Uncle, look at him." Murong Zhong was already extremely angry in his heart, and turned his head to look at Lu Chongyu and complained.

"The angel of the Tang Dynasty is coming, and my father-in-law should go out of the city to greet him in person." After Lu Chongyu finished speaking, he turned around and followed Li Xuan.

Murong Zhong was stunned for a moment, then chased after him and said, "This is not to let the king of Nanchang change his clothes and take a bath first, and then ......"

"That's called a summons." Lu Chongyu stopped his horse, stared at Murong Zhong and said: "Even if Tuyuhun returns to the country, he is still under the king of Datang County, even if he is not greeted at the city gate, he should wait in front of the palace gate, instead of letting the king of Nanchang bathe and change clothes first, and then summon him, are you embarrassing the king of Nanchang, or are you embarrassing the Tang Dynasty." ”

"No, no." Murong Zhong hurriedly waved his hand to explain, and said, "It's not because the prince is tired along the way, I want him to rest more......

Lu Chongyu glanced at Murong Zhong deeply, then slapped the reins and quickly chased after Li Xuan.

Murong Zhong suddenly fell into a daze.

He didn't know the sensitivity in this, but if the Murong clan wanted to gain a foothold, they definitely couldn't rely on Datang alone, they had to rely on themselves.

……

Li Xuan rode on the horse, looked at the deep courtyard, and nodded with satisfaction.

With a wave of his hand, two hundred cavalry had already taken the lead.

The original servants and guards in the palace were all pushed aside.

All the key points in the entire courtyard were occupied by the black-clothed guards.

"Lord Wang!" Lu Chongyu chased after him.

Li Xuan turned his head calmly, bowed slightly, and had already turned over and dismounted.

"Lord Wang." Lu Chongyu followed and dismounted, and then said quickly: "King Tuyuhun is washing and bathing, and he will come to see the prince in a while." ”

Li Xuan turned around in surprise and said, "Isn't it tomorrow goodbye, what is there to see today." ”

Lu Chongyu smiled reluctantly, and said: "After all, the prince came by order of His Majesty, and the angel arrived, and Tuyuhun should have greeted him at the city gate. ”

Li Xuan waved his hand and said: "This king doesn't care about those false courtesies, before the ceremony, it is better to let King Tuyuhun show his face less, and the Tubo people will not let go of any opportunity to assassinate him." ”

"The prince doesn't know, in this Fuqi City, the Murong clan has cleaned it more than a dozen times before and after for the restoration ceremony, and all the Tubo works have been cleaned up." Lu Chongyu hurriedly explained to Li Xuan.

Li Xuan glanced at Lu Chongyu expressionlessly, and said lightly: "Tianshan Gong, do you believe this?" ”

Lu Chongyu was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, Li Xuan had already stepped into the mansion.

"Lord Wang!" Lu Chongyu hurriedly caught up.

Li Xuan waved his hand calmly and said, "Trouble the Duke of Tianshan to tell King Tuyuhun that this king will not go to see him today, and he will see you tomorrow at the ceremony." ”

Lu Chongyu stopped with an ugly face, he knew that Li Xuan was still a little angry.

Who can not be angry.

Coming from thousands of miles, as the most distinguished guest, Li Xuan's treatment is not the best, so it's no wonder if he is not annoyed.

"If the prince has something, please say hello, Koji lives next door." Lu Chongyu opened his mouth and shouted, and then he saw Li Xuan's footsteps pause, seemed to nod, and then disappeared into the depths of the courtyard, never to be seen again.

Lu Chongyu sighed lightly and turned around helplessly.

……

"Father, how is the king of Nanchang?"

The sixteen-year-old Koji Bean, with a height of one meter six and a little baby fat, looks very cute, but the exaggerated fullness of the chest is too surprising.

Koji Dou'er stood to the side, looking at her father who had just entered the door, with a curious face.

Although she came from Chang'an by boat with Li Xuan before, at that time, she didn't know that the emperor had given her a marriage and asked her to be a side concubine to the king of Nanchang.

So at that time, although the two people were slightly facing each other, they did not have any contact at all.

Now that he has arrived in Fu Qi City, in order to make everything go smoothly tomorrow, Koji Chongyu still told Koji Douer everything.

So Koji Dou'er is very curious about everything about Li Xuan now.

"King Nanchang is very good, Dou'er will go back first, and I will see you tomorrow." Koji Chongyu nodded gently at Koji Dou'er.

"Oh!" Koji Douer answered, and then returned to the backyard with some embarrassment.

Looking at the back of his daughter leaving, Lu Chongyu couldn't help but sigh softly.

"What's wrong?" Murong Yi, who was sitting on the stool, finally noticed that something was wrong, looked at her husband in a low voice, and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" ”

"My father-in-law didn't go to the city gate to greet the king of Nanchang, and he didn't greet him in the palace afterwards, and the treatment given to the king of Nanchang was like treating the little prince." Lu Chongyu couldn't help but shake his head and said, "King Nanchang is already a little annoyed, and before tomorrow's ceremony, he shouldn't see his father-in-law again." ”

Murong Yi was stunned for a moment, and then said with an ugly face: "That matter, the king of Nanchang still doesn't know?" ”

Lu Chongyu nodded with a wry smile and said, "I shouldn't know yet." ”

Murong Yi immediately couldn't help but stand up, and said as he walked out, "No, I have to go to my father." ”

"Don't go." Lu Chongyu stopped Murong Yi when he opened his mouth, shook his head slightly, and said, "If you want Dou'er to marry better, don't go." ”

"Why?" Murong Yi's face was full of astonishment.

Because the relationship between the king of Nanchang and the Murong family was not good, the prince deliberately did not let his father-in-law see the king of Nanchang first, and the king of Nanchang himself had no intention of seeing his father-in-law.

It seems that it is a posture that will leave as soon as tomorrow passes, and the gap between the two sides can be seen at a glance.

If the king of Nanchang feels troublesome because of us, then Dou'er will marry in the future, I'm afraid it will be difficult. ”

"You mean, the king of Nanchang doesn't think that his father can keep Tuyuhun, and he doesn't have the slightest intention of helping." Murong Yi is not stupid, and Li Xuan's intentions are not difficult to guess.

"Otherwise, what do you think the queen of heaven is doing when she lets her husband come?" Lu Chongyu said softly.
