Chapter Eighty-Six: The curtain slowly opens
After Xu Chi finished reading these files on the desk, his most immediate reaction was disbelief, he raised his head, looked at Hua Shanyue's face like frost and said, "It's really ridiculous!
Hua Shanyue was not surprised by the general's reaction, because even he, a heavy general of the princess faction, couldn't believe it at all when he first heard about this secret.
The Empress of the Tang Dynasty is actually the Holy Maiden of the Demon Sect, which is an unbelievable thing, he is just like the general at this time, thinking that it is the cruel means of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
"I didn't believe it at first, but the evidence was conclusive, and I had to believe it. ”
He said with a gloomy expression: "There is the testimony of the national teacher Li Qingshan before his death, and the most important thing is the relationship between the empress and Xiahou, as long as this can be proven, it can prove all the rest." ”
Xu Chi thought about the results deduced from the secret files secretly retrieved by the South Gate Temple from the Xiling Temple in the previous file, and then corresponded to the old secret files in those palaces, and his hands suddenly trembled.
"Over the years, uncle, have you ever heard that the queen mother has been sick and injured? When the palace Qingcheng Hall caught fire, the queen mother took her personal eunuch and mother to the fire to save people, which was a beautiful talk for a while, and the world praised her for her kindness, kindness and courage, but who noticed that those eunuchs and grandmothers were burned, but only the queen mother who entered the fire three times was only burned with some hair, and there were no scars on her body?"
Hua Shanyue said with a solemn expression: "Uncle, don't forget jì, we Tang people are also Haotian believers, although the empire is enlightened and tolerant, but I have never heard that even the thieves of the Demon Sect should be tolerant." Before and after Mr. Shuyuan Ke destroyed the Demon Sect, the remnants of the Demon Sect sneaked south and constructed such a big conspiracy, Xiahou and the queen were the two most critical people in this plot, do you want to watch the great conspiracy of the Demon Sect succeed?"
The expression on Xu Chi's face became extremely grim, and he suddenly spoke: "Now that the Xiling Divine Temple intends to take advantage of the death of the dean and His Majesty, I don't care much about the difference between good and demon. As long as the Demon Sect can make my Datang strong, so what?"
Hua Shanyue was slightly shocked when he heard this, after all, he was still too young, unlike Xu Chi and other great generals, who had a history of fighting with the countries of the world and dealing with the powerhouses of the Dao Sect in the dark night, so he couldn't understand Xu Chi's strong thinking in the face of the pressure of the Xiling Temple at this time, and he would rather join forces with the Demon Sect.
He asked sharply, "Uncle, do you want to watch a demon sect demon be the queen mother of my Tang Dynasty?"
Xu Chi said in a deep voice: "What kind of person. and the queen have been husband and wife for nearly twenty years. I must have known that she was from the Demon Sect for a long time, and since Her Majesty has no opinion, then I have no opinion either. ”
Hua Shanyue suddenly felt extremely tired. I didn't expect that the dossier that I took out on behalf of His Highness would not be able to achieve the expected result. Suddenly, he said, "Even if her son may rule the Tang Dynasty?"
Xu Chi was silent.
Hua Shanyue suddenly thought of the sentence that His Royal Highness emphasized in the secret letter, hurriedly walked to the desk, and said angrily: "Even if His Majesty died young, it was because he was poisoned by the queen back then?"
Xu Chi Huoran raised his head.
Hua Shanyue stared into his eyes and said, "All the Yiqiē will be proven in the future, what Your Highness asks the Great General to do is just to be slower, whether the Tang Dynasty can survive forever is in your thoughts." ”
......
......
Inside the Chang'an Imperial Palace.
His Majesty the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Looking at the gloomy sky, the expression on his face was not gloomy, and he said with a smile: "The imperial sister said that rumors are not important, the suspicions of those rebellious ministers and thieves about the edict are not important, and it doesn't matter who supports me, what matters is the military power and the stability of Chang'an City." ”
He Mingchi held a butter paper umbrella. Standing quietly beside him, he was silent for a moment and then said, "Your Highness has been familiar with political affairs for many years, and his views on these matters are naturally worth relying on. ”
Being worthy of reliance in some aspects does not mean that it is worthy of being relied on in any aspect, if this sentence is further deepened. If you have to rely on each other for everything, then what use do you have?
Li Hunyuan is a very smart person. Understood what He Mingchi meant, the expression on his face quickly became gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Don't try to provoke the relationship between me and the imperial sister, for the sake of your recent great achievements, I should not have heard it today, if there is a next time, you know what will happen." ”
He Mingchi frowned slightly and said, "Understood." ”
"The imperial sister sent Xian Zhilang to Tuyang City the year before last, and now the northeast border army is waiting for me. Shu Cheng's foundation is shallow, and the Tang Western Army is weak, if he is smart, he will not speak before the situation is clear. ”
Li Huiyuan said indifferently: "According to the time, Hua Shanyue should be talking to Xu Chi now, and with that matter, Beidaying will no longer support that woman." ”
He Mingchi knew very well what the thing His Majesty was talking about, in fact, the secret origin of the queen mother's life was the Li Yu sister and brother he sued.
"The only problem now is Xu Shi, who is living in the south. Li Huiyuan frowned and said.
"This is also the most difficult problem. ”
Li Hunyuan agreed with silence.
He Mingchi said: "Xu Shi is the general of Zhenguo, he is extremely old and has great authority, even the Yulin Army has to obey his orders, and his prestige is extremely high, no one can move him. ”
Li Huiyuan looked at the gloomy sky above the palace, and said with a gloomy face: "This old guy has been raised for many years, but he has never really returned to old age, he is in the court, is the army of the Tang Dynasty my or his?"
He Mingchi was silent for a moment and then said, "How do you want to persuade General Xu Shida? ”
Li Huiyuan said sarcastically: "Back then, Uncle Qingshan looked at Xu Shi and had to avoid three points, even if I named you a national teacher now, what can you do with him?
He Mingchi said: "What His Majesty said is very true, but I believe that under the rule of His Majesty, the South Gate View will definitely be carried forward in the future, overpowering the Xiling Temple, and not disgrace the Tang Dynasty." ”
"That's for the future. ”
Li Huiyuan squinted slightly, and suddenly said, "After all, you and the Xiling Temple are from the same vein, and you have a very close relationship...... Is there any way you can contact the people of Xiling Temple?"
He Mingchi was slightly surprised, and objected solemnly: "Your Majesty, this matter is ......."
"I know that this is a plot with the tiger, I know what those old gods in the Xiling Temple want, I can afford it, and I know very well what I want, but I can't afford to lose. ”
Li Huiyuan waved his hand and said gloomily: "As the saying goes, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu of the Tang Dynasty was also forced to sign an alliance with the desolate people under the city, and suffered a lot of humiliation, but in the end he drove the desolate people out of the grassland, expelled them to the cold region of the extreme north like cattle and sheep, and suffered from the bitter cold for thousands of years, and I will inevitably lead the army to set foot on Taoshan in the future!"
......
......
The master and the Tang Emperor passed away one after another, and at that time, it seemed that the Tang people accepted this reality very calmly, because the Tang people were accustomed to seeing life and death parting, and their spiritual temperament had been running wild on the road of strength. But in fact, the hearts of the Tang people, especially the bigwigs in the upper echelons of the Tang Kingdom, are undergoing subtle changes.
Even they were not aware of the change, they were no longer as confident and direct as they were when Master and Majesty were still alive, and they began to rely on planning, and even began to seek external forces.
For the tens of thousands of Tang troops in Helan City, this effect was more reflected in the emotional aspect, especially after the supply of military rations began to be controlled, and the atmosphere in the city became more and more depressed.
"Before the rain stopped, three batches of messengers had been dispatched, and after the rain stopped, several more batches were sent, according to the time calculation, it should be the day after tomorrow at the latest, the grain and grass convoy of the Beidaying camp will arrive, Niangniang don't worry too much. ”
General Khan Qing reported in a low voice.
The queen mother said expressionlessly: "What if the teleportation rangers are all killed?"
Han Qing's face was pale, he wanted to speak, and forcibly suppressed the urge to swear, his anger was naturally not aimed at the queen mother, but at some people in Chang'an City.
That night, Helan City tried to spread the news again, but found that the talisman array in the palace of Chang'an City was closed, and the people in Helan City understood what had happened.
Han Qing said in a deep voice: "We will leave for the south tomorrow, Niangniang, please rest assured, no one dares to stop us." ”
The queen said: "No one dares to cut off the grain in Helan City, Xu Chi doesn't dare, Li Yu doesn't dare, the grain team didn't come, it doesn't mean that there is a problem in Beidaying, the problem may be in the wasteland." ”
Master Huang Yang, who had been silent, spoke: "I will go back to Chang'an first around the Eastern Wilderness. ”
The queen said tiredly: "The dean passed away, His Majesty left, once there was a big move, the world moved, and the Eastern Wilderness was not peaceful at this time, Li Yu was a very smart girl, she wouldn't have thought of this, she knew very well what was happening over there in the Eastern Wilderness, but she was confident that she could solve it, but I was worried that she underestimated the enemy." ”
Han Qing frowned and said, "Queen Mother, do you think it's possible...... Was it Her Royal Highness the Princess who colluded with the Golden Horde to cut off the grain route in Helan City?"
The queen shook her head and said, "Li Yu, this child, although her vision is a little too narrow, she knows that she is a Tang person and can't do this kind of thing...... The changes in the Golden Horde's court, in my opinion, are 60xs out of ten a means of the Xiling Temple, but I believe she will be happy to see this. ”
......
......
Countless steppe cavalry appeared in the fields on the edge of the Yan Realm.
The field, which had been watered by heavy rain for many days, was very wet, and there was no ash flying even if the wind howled, but at this time, the smoke and dust on the wasteland were billowing up to the sky, and you can imagine how amazing the number of cavalry was.
Long Qing touched the silver mask on his face and looked at the homeland of Yan Kingdom in the south, there was no cowardice in his eyes, no emotion of the return of the wanderer, and no flame of hatred, just indifference.
