Chapter 299: The Eyes of Fate
"Shut up!" Wu Yuanheng reprimanded softly, "Look at you, where have you been? Is my brother such a selfish and cautious person?"
"I'm sorry...... Eldest brother. Wu Qiyun lowered his head, biting his lip, and was almost about to burst into tears. "But, I really ...... I like King Han very much. In my eyes, I can't see any other man except him. ”
Wu Yuanheng also frowned a little lonely, stroked his sister's shoulders and said, "I have wronged you, Yun'er...... But please be sure to trust Big Brother. I won't hurt you. I have never stopped you from liking Han, and I don't know if this is too much to spoil you. You shouldn't have had that kind of mind in the first place. ”
"But big brother, I don't understand......" Wu Qiyun raised his head, and there were already some hazy tears in his eyes.
"It will be clear later. Wu Yuanheng breathed a sigh of relief and showed a smile, "Now, you have a good rest." Big Brother never asks you to do anything. But this time, you have to be obedient. You must not flee without permission, and chase the king of Han to the national capital. ”
Wu Qiyun sat down a little annoyed: "Got it!" thought in his heart: This little thought was discovered by him again.
Wu Yuanheng shook his head with a smile and left Wu Qiyundi's room. When he closed the door, he sighed lightly and said to himself: "My poor girl, why do you fall in love with King Han? Either the big one. Either it's lucky. Under the great murder, I, Wu Yuanheng, accompanied the martyrdom of the King of Han to the funeral, but I must not catch you; if it is auspicious, with your ability, you will also be able to become a figure such as the eldest grandson queen...... The eldest grandson is by the side of the Holy Monarch Taizong, which can be described as a moment of glory, and the eldest grandson Wuji is also covering the sky in the Gaozong Dynasty. But what about the ending of the eldest grandson's family?...... My good sister, you must stay away from King Han! Our martial family's origins are already a little sensitive. You must no longer be the woman of the Han King, and let the Wu family become the second eldest grandson of the Great Qi!
In the study, the maidservant Sophie knelt in front of Xiao Yunhe, tears flowing. She begged the King of Han to take her with her. First, we must serve the king of Han well. Second, there has been no news about his father's brother's remains for so many years. Now that she finally returned to Guannei, she also wanted to follow to inquire about the news.
Xiao Yunhe reluctantly reluctantly rejected her, so she had to agree. The little girl thanked her happily, and immediately ran back to the room and carried a small burden. Wu Qiyun, who was on the side, was so jealous that his eyes were red.
It didn't take a while. Several generals and soldiers in the Han Wang's mansion also went to the Han Wang's study. Let's ask for my life together, and I want to go to the national capital with me. The first to follow Xiao Yunhe's side of the Han Wangfu Iron Blood Thirteen. After a series of bloody battles, there are actually a lot of them, and all of them are alive. Gao Gu and Song Liangchen have become generals, sitting in Victoria and Kang Tingchuan in the East Female Kingdom respectively, guarding one side. Other locals have also been promoted to generals and captains, and they have become popular in the Jianchuan army. Xiao Yunhe scolded all these people and retreated, saying that he had his own opinions, and he should take who he should bring and who not to bring. The men all left the study in a huff.
Ju Wenzhen has always been by King Han's side. While helping him count his things, he chattered and said, "My lord, we have been away from the capital for more than three years, and now we can go back again." ”
"I just don't know, will the emperor use any tricks?"
"The Han Palace, where the Sixteen Kings Mansion of the National Capital. No one has taken care of it these days, and I don't know if I can still live there?"
Xiao Yunhe knocked him on the ground in annoyance: "Shut up!
Ju Wenzhen smiled. continued to help him wrap up a stack of schoolbooks in his hands.
Xiao Yunhe walked out of the study and looked outside, and everyone in the Han Wang's Mansion was standing quietly in the courtyard. The two princesses, Wu Yuanheng, Xue Cuncheng and others, plus the generals, pawns, maids, and servants, there are hundreds of people. All of them looked solemn and looked at Xiao Yunhe quietly.
"What are you doing? It's like saying goodbye. Xiao Yunhe smiled lightly, stepped forward to support the two big-bellied princesses, and said, "It's just a trip to Beijing, and I'll be back soon." Go and do your own business, don't get stuck here. ”
Then the crowd dispersed. Xiao Yunhe accompanied the two princesses to walk around the courtyard for a while, and the carriages and horses for the trip were ready. Mo Yi and Wu Yuelin were full of worry, and they couldn't help but shed tears.
Three or five cars, Ju Wenzhen, Sophie Er, and eleven accompanying iron-blooded thirteen guards, the group, set off.
Xiao Yunhe was worried that traveling in a fanfare would cause some unnecessary riots, so he deliberately just bought a few cars for civilian travel, and left Chengdu Mansion inconspicuously.
Looking back at the verdant mountains and the tall and majestic city of Chengdu, Xiao Yunhe sighed secretly in his heart: Life is impermanent! Chengdu, when will I be able to come back?
Naturally, all the way is inevitably eaten and dewed. Shu Road is a little difficult to walk, and the speed is not too fast. A few days later, the carriage and horse arrived in Jianzhou, and stopped for a rest in the Xichuan throat Xiongguan - Jiange.
"The Sword Pavilion is majestic and Cui Wei, one husband is the pass, and ten thousand people are not open. Xiao Yunhe stood on the majestic Sword Pavilion Tower and looked down, and couldn't help but chant Li Baidi's poems. The Sword Pavilion is indeed steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. As the throat and gateway of Jianchuan, Xiao Yunhe has also personally come here many times to inspect and arrange arming, and he is no stranger to this place. Every time you visit, you will be amazed by the steepness and majesty of this place.
The current Sword Pavilion is the door open, and the pedestrians are like a stream of business travelers. Xichuan's tea and cotton have always been the most famous, and there is no shortage of merchants who come from thousands of miles to purchase.
Xiao Yunhe looked down and watched casually, but saw that the crowd of people was rushing quickly, and he was about to knock down the pedestrians. The sergeant at the gate shouted at the man to dismount, as if he was going to arrest the panicked pedestrian.
Xiao Yunhe stood at the head of the city, and heard the man below say urgently: "Take me to see Lord Han Wang quickly--I have a very urgent matter to report!
The minions were visibly stunned and a little overwhelmed. The man stomped his feet and hurriedly said, "Don't let me go quickly! Otherwise, something big will happen!"
The surrounding people came over one after another, Xiao Yunhe frowned, and said in his heart: "Who is it?"
"Someone is coming—I'm going to shut him down, and I'm going to invite him up!"
A moment later, the man who had just broken through was brought up. Xiao Yunhe looked at this dusty, haggard and tired man from a distance for a long time, and then he recognized the person, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Du Huangsheng - it's him?!"
"King Han, Lord King Han!" Du Huangshang shouted loudly from afar, almost running towards Xiao Yunhe. Xiao Yunhe also took a few steps quickly, and Du Huangshang knelt on the ground.
"Zunsu, aren't you an official in the national capital? As a squire of the military department, why are you so single?" Xiao Yunhe asked him to stand up, and said puzzledly.
Du Huangshang gasped and glanced around, and said in a low voice: "My lord, there are many people-please take a step to speak!"
Xiao Yunhe nodded suspiciously: "It's okay." So he took him to the inn room.
"Zunsu, what happened?"
"My lord, you must not enter Beijing now!" Du Huangshang looked nervous and said very worriedly, "Otherwise, you will definitely die and be ruined!"
"What?" Xiao Yunhe stood up in shock, "How is this possible?"
Du Huangshang took a sip of tea to moisten his throat: "I know that the adults are wise and brave and never lack courage, and it is very likely that they will enter Beijing with anger." In fact, if those things hadn't happened, adults would definitely have been able to live in the tiger's mouth, and there would be no danger. But now, the situation has changed - something has happened!"
"Big deal?!" Xiao Yunhe looked at Du Huangsheng, who was full of panic, and his heart tightened. Du Huangshang was one of Yan Shizhang's protégés who introduced him before. Although it is not as brave and loyal as Gao Gu Wu Yuanheng, it is still reliable. He was a good official in the national capital, but he ran to Xichuan alone, which is enough to see how serious things are.
"My lord, that's right. Du Huangshang swallowed a mouthful of saliva a little nervously, tried to calm his feelings, and said seriously, "The last time the adults fought with Tibet in Victoria, there were some rumors in the court. It is said that the adults want to cut off the emperor and ignore the emperor and the imperial court. At that time, the emperor did not listen to these rumors, and took the initiative to refute them. ”
"Well, I know. Xiao Yunhe said, "This is very likely to be a divisive trick used by the Tubo people." ”
"But later, didn't the emperor send the eunuch Dou Wenchang to Xichuan to issue an edict?" Du Huangshang said, "In fact, if you issue a holy decree, why use Dou Wenchang?" He and Huo Xianming are now big celebrities in front of the emperor, and they are even more powerful than the prime minister. Didn't you think there was something wrong with me?"
Xiao Yunhe was slightly surprised: "When you said that, I really didn't think too much about it at the time." I didn't expect that after two or three years, Dou Wenchang would be so noisy. ”
"At that time, the emperor's intention was to let him, a henchman, go to Xichuan to explore the truth and reality. After all, he still doesn't worry about adults. Du Huangshang said, "At that time, after Dou Wenchang went back, he didn't say anything. I also thought that this matter would be settled. But I didn't expect that not long ago, Dou Wenchang actually united Li to present a secret report to the emperor...... said that the adults made dragon robes privately in Xichuan, prepared to get out of the car and drive the dragon, and prepared to be the emperor!"
"What?!" Xiao Yunhe was suddenly shocked and angry, and shouted loudly, "This eunuch dares to slander me like this? Who is it?!"
Du Huangshang replied: "Li is a royal clan. This person has been highly regarded by the emperor in recent years. He bribed Dou Wenchang, Huo Xianming and others, and successively won the positions of Runzhou Thorn History, Western Zhejiang Observation Envoy, and Salt and Iron Transit Envoy. Then he took advantage of his position to collect many rare treasures and present them to the emperor. This is a big deal. Now, he controls the world's trough transportation of salt and iron and the collection of taxes and taxes. Now, he is arrogant and domineering, and no one pays attention to him. Because the king of Han is doing well in Xichuan. But the tax money and food could not be collected from him, so this person was already jealous and angry with the adults. ”
Xiao Yunhe said angrily: "The emperor ...... You actually believed them?"
Du Huangshang smiled bitterly: "The emperor is a human being...... Naturally, it is better to believe that it exists than to believe that it does not exist. Presumably, Dou Wenchang, Li and others are not so bold and want to plant adults. What is there to instruct or support the nobles? It is not yet known. Perhaps among them, there are also bribes and instructions from the Tibetans. But this time, the emperor seemed to be really angry. He secretly ordered Ma Sui, the generalissimo of the Gyeonggi Soldiers and Horses, to mobilize manpower to prepare to take you down after the King of Han returned to the capital. Then he listened to Dou Wenchang's poisonous plan again. Under the pretext of the Famen Temple sacrifice ceremony, Xuanda entered Beijing. Originally, this matter was extremely confidential, and there were definitely not many people who knew about it. Humble because of his service in the military department. I vaguely heard some excuses. Fortunately, they didn't seem to know much about my relationship with adults, so they didn't pay much attention to me. I spent a lot of time secretly probing and finally figured things out. So he abandoned his wife, children, and set out from the national capital in the starry night, and rushed to report to the adults!
"So that's the case! It turns out that I fought bloodily for the world and died nine times for the sake of the world, and I can't resist a slander from two traitors!" Xiao Yunhe was furious. A slap slammed into the table.
Suddenly, the table burst and sawdust flew around, and the tea bowl jumped to the ground and fell to pieces. The water vapor that was flying around was like the angry flame in Xiao Yunhe's chest. Tossing and turning.
Du Huangshang was shocked and stunned on the spot, and muttered, "My lord......"
Xiao Yunhe's eyes were round with angry eyes. The fists of both hands clenched to the bone. He thought in his heart, no matter who was behind the scenes, as long as he provided some fake so-called evidence, Dou Wenchang and Li, who were traitors who didn't like me, would naturally be happy to report to the emperor. The emperor is worried that he has no handle, and if he gets such a thing, he will naturally get rid of me with the courage to borrow the donkey from the slope. Now it seems that the shape has developed to a very extreme point! What the emperor thinks may not be house arrest, but to kill me on this trumped-up charge! Okay -- you are finally going to touch the bottom line and push me into a corner!
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhe gritted his teeth and said, "Zunsu, this king wants to thank you solemnly." If you hadn't sacrificed yourself to report to me, I believe I would have been lucky this time. It doesn't matter whether the emperor believes it or not. All he lacks is an excuse, an excuse to show the world and kill me! Now that things have evolved to the point of no return, there is no need to blame me for doing something rebellious!"
Du Huangshang stood up in shock and said in shock: "My lord, you want to ......"
Xiao Yunhe raised his hand, and murderous anger burst out in his eyes: "Gossip and don't talk, turn the horse's head with this king - go back to Chengdu!"
Du Huangsheng's mind suddenly buzzed: Oh my God...... Now, something bigger is about to happen!
Having said that, Xiao Yunhe is calm and sophisticated after all. He was not reckless enough, and only listened to Du Huangsheng's words to make such a heavy decision. That night, after he settled Du Huangsheng, he called a few henchmen over. Three of them disguised themselves as business travelers and went to the national capital to find out the details of the matter. The other three people, with the handwritten letters of the King of Han, went to see Li Sheng, Chu Yan and Li Huaiguang, and informed them in detail of what had happened. Then, Xiao Yunhe sent an envoy to the national capital in Jianzhou Post to present his own handwritten letter. It is said that the king of Han is on his way to the national capital. However, when he was in the Sword Pavilion, he suddenly suffered from wind and cold and was bedridden, and he may have to delay for a few days and arrive in Beijing a few days late. In this way, if what Du Huangshang reported is not realistic, there is still room for things to be slowed down. It's not that Xiao Yunhe can't believe Du Huangsheng, but this matter is too serious, and the reasons for the twists and turns are twists and turns, so it is necessary to figure it out before it can be done.
After arranging these things, Xiao Yunhe took Du Huangshang and the others and turned around and headed towards Chengdu Mansion. Sophie and Ju Wenzhen don't know what to do, and Freedom is stunned. But seeing that King Han's face often has anger faintly revealed. I was a little afraid to ask.
Fortunately, it was a civilian carriage on the ground, and the group returned to Chengdu Mansion without showing any traces. When Xiao Yunhe suddenly appeared in the Han Palace, the servant standing at the door was stunned for a moment and forgot to salute and say hello.
Xiao Yunhe took Du Huangshang and rushed into the Han Palace. Call the two pawns and ask him to summon Wu Yuanheng and the others to come. Mo Yi, Wu Yuelin and Wu Qiyun heard that King Han had gone and returned, and they were both surprised and happy to come to see him. They were all blocked out of the study and were not allowed to enter.
Everyone thought in their hearts: Something big must have happened!
After a short time, Wu Yuanheng, Xue Cuncheng and Wei Gao all came. When they saw King Han, they were naturally shocked. Wu Yuanheng had a friendship with Du Huangshang when he was in the national capital, and when he saw him, he understood most of it. Shocked: "Brother Zunsu, you actually came to Xichuan - what happened?!"
Xiao Yunhe snorted coldly: "Listen to him tell you!"
Du Huangshang explained the matter to Wu Yuanheng and others in detail. The three of them were shocked in unison, "What? There is such a thing?!"
"Yes, that's the kind of thing. Moreover, it happened to me!" Xiao Yunhe said angrily, "The emperor has decided. Kill me. Now, he doesn't even want the last fig leaf!"
Wu Yuanheng said fearfully: "Fortunately, Brother Zunsu came to report the news, otherwise...... Isn't King Han in danger?!"
Xue Cuncheng also said angrily: "I can't think of it, I can't think of it." Emperor...... He actually listened to such a rumor and wanted to kill Lord Han! Couldn't he see through this simple and ridiculous trick of planting and deceiving?"
Wei Gao sighed and said, "It's not that he can't see through it, but he doesn't want to break it." Humble duty and the heart of a villain to live in the belly of a gentleman -- this kind of thing of planting may be planned and instructed by the emperor himself!"
"Bah, where is he a gentleman!" Xue Cuncheng shouted angrily, "I, Xue, have read half a book of the world. I have always wanted to be loyal to the king and serve the country. Now, I have never hated a man as much as I hated him!Is such a despicable person who behaves in such a villain worthy of the throne?!"
"That's it, don't make a noise. I didn't call you here to quarrel and curse. Xiao Yunhe said. It has happened, when I was in Jianzhou. Secret envoys have been sent to contact the three marshals. If the emperor knew that I was not coming to the capital, he would definitely do something big and make some extraordinary moves. When the time comes, it is possible for me to bring troops to recruit me. I can't sit still, I have to figure out a way to deal with it. In addition, although the emperor's side is a threat, what I think about the most at the moment is still the land of Chisong Detsen on the plateau. If I start a war with the imperial court in Xichuan and Trisong Detsen comes to attack again, it will be a catastrophe at that time!"
"Your Excellency is very worried!" Wu Yuanheng bowed his hand and said, "Your Majesty is also thinking about this issue in his heart. Almost a year has passed, and there has been no movement since Trisong Detsen returned to the plateau after his defeat. This time, it is very likely that the discord plan came from his handwriting. If this is the case, then the Tibetans must be crouching in the shadows, ready to strike us a fatal blow at any time!"
"Not bad......" Xue Cuncheng and the others also nodded in agreement.
The room was silent for a while, and everyone looked straight at King Han. Xiao Yunhe squeezed his fist a few times, and his bones cracked. He pondered for a moment, raised his arm, and said loudly: "Now that the matter has come to this, there is no way to evade the retreat - you immediately send an order to let all the officials and generals above the fifth rank under the rule of Jiannan Xichuan Jiedu go to Chengdu Mansion in three days to discuss matters!"
"Yes!" everyone bowed their hands in unison and went their separate ways.
Du Huangshang held it in his throat in one breath, and he was always suffocated. After everyone left, he said with mixed fear: "My lord, you really plan to ...... Armed confrontation with the imperial court?"
"Other than that, I have no choice!" Xiao Yunhe's words were loud.
King Han went and returned, and the palace of King Han suddenly became lively again. However, Xiao Yunhe kept himself locked in the study and saw no one.
Years have passed, and the day has finally arrived.
Is it expectation, is it helplessness, is it anger, is it sadness?
Probably both.
When this moment was about to come, he just wanted to stay alone for a while and make his mood a little calmer.
Fate is so boring. And, every time he was like that, he had no choice. There are only two paths in front of him: death, or rebellion. Now, the status quo of the Great Qi Dynasty and the people of the world does not allow him to make other choices.
That's fate...... Xiao Yunhe sighed, closed his eyes, and leaned back with his tense body.
The study was extremely quiet, except for the sound of a trumpet when the candles burned. Xiao Yunhe closed his eyes in a daze, almost unable to figure out whether he was asleep or whether he was still in a dream. The vague back of the master when he left, the smile that never changed in his memory, the rainy night in Fengtian County, the blood book shot from the ground under the city of the national capital, the heads of Zhongnan Ancient Road, Lingyan Pavilion, and Zhu, the order to thoroughly investigate the case of soaring grain prices, and from then on to see the emperor's face clearly, and left the national capital Qishan to win a great victory, and then ruled Xichuan to collect Victoria, fought against Tibet, and leveled the barbarians to attack the Ngoling Lake...... One scene after another, one after another, appeared in his mind.
He couldn't tell whether these things were real or dream.
It turns out that this qiē has to be broken after all. All the grievances and twists and turns, in the end, a decision must be made between him and the current emperor.
Xiao Yunhe involuntarily pulled the corners of his mouth, showed a wry smile, and muttered to himself: "Why, you can't be a good emperor? Why, you all have to force me like this?...... Why, why!"
He opened his eyes suddenly, slammed his fist on the table, and roared angrily, "This—you forced me!"
In the imperial study of the Zichen Hall of Daming Palace, the old man clenched his fists tightly, and his face was as ugly as if he had been brushed a few times.
"Who is it, who leaked the news?" the old man shouted in a low voice through gritted teeth.
Li Qi, Dou Wenchang and Huo Xianming trembled, not daring to move at all. After half a ring, Li Qicai said with a cry: "Your Majesty...... When Xiao Yunhe was operating in the national capital for a long time, he might have some henchmen ambushing in the court. This man has a lot of mouths, maybe he will ......"
"Shut up, what are you going to do but put some afterthought? Why didn't you think of this layer when I told you to do something?" the old man was a little hysterical, and shouted a few curses, and he didn't bother to get angry. Because he knows that it really doesn't make sense to be angry with these people at this time. After a while, he sighed and said, "Okay, now that things are clear, we have lost the opportunity." You've got an idea for me, how about that?"
The corners of Li Qi's eyes, who were thin and skinny, flashed coldly, and said with pity: "Your Majesty, the matter has come to this, and Xiao Yunhe, the rebel minister, can no longer be tolerated." Since he openly resisted the decree and refused to enter the national capital, it means that the reverses have been revealed. Now, His Majesty can go to him more justifiably. As soon as His Majesty's decree comes out, the world will respond to the call to pacify Xichuan, capture Xiao Yunhesheng into Beijing, and let His Majesty send it down!"
"Majesty, majesty!" Dou Wenchang hurriedly interrupted Li and said, "What Master Li said is not unreasonable. The villain has been to Xichuan before, and he will know more or less about Xiao Yunhe. There are some things I want to say as well. ”
"Speak, don't be slow. The old man was a little impatient.
"Obey!" Dou Wenchang bowed, and said very seriously, "Xiao Yunhe has always been ambitious. After he arrived in Xichuan, he worked hard to win people's hearts. In the Xichuan area, including the Dongnu Kingdom, Nanzhao Kingdom and other southwestern barbarian states. They were all obedient to him. If His Majesty intends to conquer him by force, it is very likely that it will be equivalent to conquering the entire southwest of Kyushu. When the time comes, those barbarians will definitely help. Xiao Yunhe was able to defeat the 300,000 army of the powerful Tubo people under extremely inferior circumstances, which is enough to see that this person is very capable militarily. Moreover, the army in his hands became extremely brave after that great battle. Not to mention. He also has the advantage of geographical advantages. Therefore, it will become very difficult to collect. ”
The old man frowned: "Then what do you mean?"
Dou Wenchang snorted coldly and said, "The small one is ...... The snake hits seven inches. What Xiao Yunhe relies on is nothing more than people's hearts and fame. But Majesty. You can spread the word to the world, count his Xiao Yunhe's crimes, and say that he supports the army and respects himself and intends to rebel. When the time comes, he will lose all kinds of hearts. As long as he loses the hearts and minds of the people and help, no matter how many soldiers and horses he Xiao Yunhe has in his own hands that can fight well. It will not be a cause for concern. ”
"Well, that's a good point. That's what I intended. The old man raised his eyebrows a little and said, "He first made a dragon robe privately. Now he is openly resisting the decree, and every indication indicates that this person will rebel. As long as I show it to the world, he will become a notorious national thief!"
"Also, Your Majesty!" Dou Wenchang said again, "During the Xichuan War, Li Sheng, Chu Yan, Li Huaiguang and others on the Western Front did their best to help Xiao Yunhe. Guo Majesty Xià wants to conquer Shu by force. These people ...... I have to guard against it!"
The old man suddenly woke up and muttered, "Yes......
"However, Li Sheng and the others are guarding the western gate of Daqi, and if I cut off their military power, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be problems in those places. The old man was a little embarrassed. "Besides, in case the Tibetans come to attack in the future. I'm counting on them to guard the gates!"
Li Sheng on the side was afraid that he would be robbed of the limelight, so he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the minister has an idea." His Majesty might as well make an order to transfer these three people back to the capital, saying that they would be comforted and rewarded, and they would be temporarily left in the national capital and not returned to Jiedu. When they entered Beijing, they sent troops to conquer Xichuan. When the time comes, they will be in their hands, and those who will not dare to make a time. In order to prevent the Tubo from attacking, you can temporarily elect the festival to stay and temporarily lead the festival. In this way, their military power and positions will still be there, people's hearts will not fluctuate, and the overall situation will be stable. Just wait for Xichuan to be conquered, and then let them go back. By then, Xiao Yunhe had been eliminated, and the three of them would not be able to make any trouble. The old man pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes lit up: "So, very good! - Summoning Ma Sui!"
Li Sheng flipped through the letter in his hand repeatedly for a while, and his brows tightened more and more. Outside the military tent, Li Dilian roared. The young man was riding on a horse and competing with the sergeant. Five or six strong men fought around him, but they couldn't get a little cheap. Li Sheng was a little bored in his heart and walked outside the military tent.
"Father!" Li rode his horse with a little pride and excitement, dismounted and saluted, "Please ask Father Shuai to instruct the last general's martial arts!"
Li Sheng looked at him for a long time, and smiled slightly: "Come into the tent with your father, I have something to say to you." ”
Li was slightly stunned, sighed, and followed in.
"Saburo. I have important things to tell you today, and you must remember them clearly. Li Sheng's expression was very stern, and he said solemnly, "After a while, my father may be transferred to the national capital." ”
"Father is going to the national capital, have you received the holy decree?"
"Not yet. Li Sheng shook his head with a stern expression, "But I believe that the holy decree should be coming soon." What I want to tell you is...... No matter what happens, you must be calm, composed, and not reckless!"
"Father, what happened?" Li vaguely felt that something might be wrong, and said hurriedly, "Could it be ...... What's in trouble with Daddy?"
Li Sheng sighed, stood with his hands in his hands, and said slowly: "I hope that nothing big will happen to my father." I'm not going to get in any big trouble, it's just ...... That's it, and what I'm going to tell you is very important. You have to keep it in mind. Moreover, it is not possible to let the second person know!"
"Yes!" Li didn't dare to be ambiguous, and solemnly clenched his fists. Fly backwards.
Tri Song Dezan stopped on a rock, and with his eagle-like eyes, he looked down at the thousands of horses in front of him. This more than a year has been almost the most difficult time in his life. The shame of Nishikawa's defeat almost drove him into madness. If it weren't for a Dharma practice at Samye Monastery. He was really worried that he would make some impulsive move.
Shang Jiezan rode beside him on his horse, and did not dare to speak much. At this time, seeing that Zampu's expression was quite calm, he said out loud: "Zampu, the army has all crossed the Yak River. Advancing forward, it is the area of the Purple Mountain Range. Heading south along the Yellow River, we can cut along the Dajinchuan River into the Xichuan River, directly threatening Victoria. An army of 150,000 carried heavy loads of grain and grass. Although the speed of the march is a little slower, it can easily run in front of the Victorian Xuanmen Pass within a month. ”
"It's not just about speed, timing is key. Chisong Dezan said calmly, "Xiao Yunhe is this person. After a few encounters, I kind of got to know him a little bit. In our opinion, the more sure he is of winning things, the more he will try to change that. He was an amazing man who never followed the rules. So. We should also take a long-term view and think a little more. Actually, this time. We'd better be able to surprise Victoria. Take advantage of the time when Xiao Yunhe and the Emperor of Great Qi are fighting hard to open the glue, come to fish in troubled water. I don't want to do this kind of thing anymore. Especially...... The subject is Xiao Yunhe. ”
"Zampu is wise!" Shang Jiezan hurriedly patted his ass. But in his heart, he secretly said: the immortal lord on the snowy plateau...... Could it be that the ambition and domineering spirit have been worn out because of a fiasco? The defeat in the previous battle can only be said to be too unexpected. Xiao Yunhe won a fluke, and Zampu lost unexpectedly. I don't believe that a mere Xiao Yunhe can defeat Zampu again!
Chengdu Mansion Chamber, main hall.
Xiao Yunhe sat upright. Quietly listened to a few people report the situation. These people are the people of the Thirteenth Blood of the Han Dynasty, the secret agents he sent to the national capital in the Sword Pavilion before.
After these people finished speaking, some of the people sitting under the seat immediately exploded. Speak loudly.
Xiao Yunhe raised his hands: "Quiet!"
Suddenly, the audience was silent.
Xiao Yunhe stood up. Slowly pacing into the hall, he said calmly: "Now it seems that Yiqiē has been able to determine." Emperor, the earth is indeed going to kill me. Moreover, now the troops and horses are being mobilized in the national capital and are preparing to come to the conquest. More than 100,000 troops were incorporated into the Shence Army, under the command of Generalissimo Ma Sui, and they were about to come to Xichuan in a few days. ”
"It's simply bearable, it's unbearable!" One of the people at the banquet roared angrily, and he stood up and shouted, "Emperor, is there still the people of the world in his eyes?" If he is planted by a villain on the basis of only one side, he will plot to kill the loyal and brave heroes; if he does not say a word, he will purge the soldiers and horses to come and fight! Has he ever known that after a war, the white bones will fill the four fields, and all the living beings will be left behind, and there will be no rooster crowing for thousands of miles! This was originally a farce instigated by villains, but the emperor just held on to it, that is, to kill the king of Han and the people of Xichuan. is so faint, it's really angry and resentful, and everyone will be punished!"
Yixi's words were impassioned and scolded heartily. The crowd couldn't help but applaud.
can say such things, except for Xue Cuncheng, who has a fiery and straightforward personality and is extremely talented, who else? !
Xiao Yunhe raised his hand: "Ziming, you sit down first." Don't get too excited. The more this happens, the more we have to be calm. Otherwise, tens of thousands of people will be killed, and the country will be overturned. ”
"Hmph!" Xue Cuncheng was still angry, and sat down angrily.
As soon as Xue Cuncheng sat down, a thunderous roar came from far outside the conference hall: "My lord, my lord! I'm back again! When will I send troops to fight my mother, I want to be a pioneer!" As soon as the words fell, a black and stout giant man broke in, full of excitement.
"Song Liangchen, you dare to ignore this Wang Jun's order and haven't left for the Dongnu Kingdom yet?!" Xiao Yunhe wrinkled his eyebrows and shouted, "Don't you let me out quickly!"
"Ah?!" Song Liangchen was greatly stunned, "Okay, I'll leave immediately." The little goblin wants to say goodbye to Princess Dugu and let me wait for her for a while...... But my lord, if there is a fight, I must be the vanguard! That bastard emperor, I would have seen him unpleasantly a long time ago! This time, I saw one of the birds he sent, and when I saw two of them cut one, Xiao Yunhe shouted angrily: "Full of nonsense, get out!"
"Okay, I'll get out!" Song Liangchen smiled and ran out with a big grin.
Everyone couldn't help but laugh. This Song Liangchen opened his mouth in front of many officials and generals, opened his mouth to be a goblin, and closed his mouth to pinch a bird, which is indeed too undignified.
After being quiet for a while, Wu Yuanheng said loudly: "My lord, this time the hearts of the people in Xichuan will also be greatly affected. After all, this time, it was the emperor and the imperial court who came to ask for the guilt. How to stabilize people's hearts will be the most important, and this is far more important than the upcoming war. ”
"That's a good point. Xiao Yunhe said, "I understand the emperor's personality. He finally found some so-called excuses, and he will definitely make a big fuss. When the time comes, the whole world will hear him scolding me for being unfilial and rebellious. I'm not too worried, though. Because all kinds of facts are always in front of us, and rumors stop at the wise. In the past few years, the people of Xichuan have long understood the king's character. It's not that easy to slander me with some rumors. What's more, we also have a big helper who will come to help us quell the rumors. ”
"Helper?" exclaimed in unison.
"Yes, big helper-Trisong Dezan!" Xiao Yunhe smiled slightly and said, "I dare to conclude that he will not let go of such an opportunity to attack Xichuan to take revenge." The emperor kept saying that I, Xiao Yunhe, rebelled, but that was simply a one-sided statement. With his current prestige and credibility, and many facts that have happened before, not many people will believe it. And what everyone saw afterwards was that I was defending against the foreign invaders, and he sent troops to attack Xichuan to ask for the guilt. What kind of system will the emperor become when he unites with foreign enemies to attack a prince? How should the people of the world comment on it? I think that when the time comes, a rumor will be self-defeating. The emperor will lift a stone and shoot himself in the foot. So, we don't have to worry about rumors at all, and we don't have to worry about losing people's hearts. On the surface, the emperor seems to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but in fact, he is a thief with a weak heart and lack of confidence!"
