Chapter 87: After Wagang

Liangchen's personality is gentler than Meijing, and under normal circumstances, she can control her emotions and is not as impulsive as Meijing. But saying that Liangchen has no temper, she naturally can't tolerate Zhang Changzong's arrogance.

Zhang Changzong saw Liangchen staring at him fiercely, and he couldn't help but feel furious in his heart, and he didn't dare to say more. Only then did he know that Liangchen was usually smiling, soft-spoken, and angry, as scary as the beautiful scenery.

Wu Zetian was afraid that Liangchen would really rush over and beat Zhang Changzong, after all, Meijing had done this at the beginning. With Liangchen's skills, he will definitely take Zhang Changzong's life with one palm. Even if Liangchen's subordinates showed mercy, it was inevitable that Zhang Changzong would be injured.

Wu Zetian hurriedly interjected: "Girl, don't be angry. He doesn't understand anything, so you don't have to pay attention to him. Gorou, apologize to the girl! ”

Zhang Changzong heard that Wu Zetian had always called Liangchen a girl, not Liangchen, and knew that Wu Zetian already liked Liangchen very much. Wu Zetian rarely calls a young girl like this, unless Wu Zetian already regards the other party as a very close person, she will call the other party a girl so affectionately.

Zhang Changzong hurriedly bowed to Liangchen, saying that he was frightened just now, and he was impulsive, so that he was talking nonsense, and asked Liangchen not to worry about him.

Liangchen snorted coldly and waved his hand at him, signaling that he didn't need to say any more. Liangchen knew his relationship with Wu Zetian, and since Wu Zetian came forward to speak for him, Zhang Changzong's attitude also changed, and Liangchen didn't want to worry about him.

Wu Zetian then asked, "Girl, do you think we should leave here as soon as possible, or do we leave after dealing with the affairs here?" More martyrs have died this time than yesterday, and I am really saddened that I have no idea for a while. ”

Wu Zetian looked at the guards lying on the ground around him, and his heart was indeed like a knife, after all, most of these people were from their Wu family. As an elder, it is natural for her to be sad.

Of course, Liangchen wants to leave here as soon as possible, this place is too dangerous. If someone attacks again, it will be difficult to resist. But seeing the guards lying all over the ground, Liangchen was a little speechless.

Liangchen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Madam, then deal with the aftermath of these brothers as soon as possible!" ”

Wu Zetian nodded, then explained to Wu Wei, and quickly took the remaining guards to settle the dead and wounded guards. Wu Wei didn't dare to slack off, and Wu Yuan obeyed the order.

Wu Zetian saw that Wu Yong and Wu Meng were still standing beside him, and immediately said, "Yong'er, Meng'er, why are you still standing?" Still not helping to settle the brothers? ”

Wu Yong hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "Grandma Huang, we are leaving, what about your safety?" ”

Wu Zetian said angrily: "With Lin Shaoxia and the girl by my side, what are you worried about?" Go, don't delay, the sun has already set, and it will soon be dark! ”

Wu Yong and Wu Meng had to bow and turn away. At this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves from behind. Feiyun and Liangchen were shocked, thinking that another assassin was coming, so they hurriedly stood in Wu Zetian, staring at the way they came.

After a while, I saw two people galloping on horseback, each holding a horse in his hand. Feiyun took a closer look, but it was a beautiful scenery and hibiscus.

Liangchen had already seen it clearly, and immediately shouted: Third sister, Furong, how did you come here? ”

In the blink of an eye, the two of them had arrived in front of them. Jingjing reined in her horse, turned over, and said, "Just now I saw that the fire had greatly decreased, and I was worried that something was wrong with you, and I couldn't take care of it too much, so I took the opportunity to rush over." ”

Feiyun reproached unhappily: "Third sister, you are still so reckless. The fire is so big, is it really fatal to rush into the sea of fire like this? Even if we are in danger, you should protect yourself first and then consider saving us! Not in the future! ”

Meijing saw that Feiyun and Liangchen were safe and sound, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. She knew that Feiyun was worried about her and Fleur, so she got angry, so she grinned at Feiyun and nodded in agreement.

After Furong dismounted, she saw that Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er were a little embarrassed, their bodies were covered with dust, and they were very distressed, and their eyes were moist, their noses were sour, and tears flowed down involuntarily.

Furong hurriedly came to Wu Zetian, choked up and said, "Grandma, are you okay?" Didn't get hurt, did you? ”

Wu Zetian hurriedly helped Furong wipe away her tears, smiled slightly, and said, "What are you crying about?" Girl, don't you see me standing in front of you? It's such a big one, and I'm still crying, so be careful that I can't get married in the future! ”

Seeing that Wu Zetian was indeed fine, Furong immediately broke into tears and laughed, and said coquettishly: "If you can't get married, you won't marry." When I learn martial arts, I will stay by your side, like Shangguan girl! ”

Wu Zetian looked at Furong lovingly and said, "Silly girl, I can't delay you." You should follow your master to learn martial arts with peace of mind, and when I return to heaven, you can follow the three heroes of Xiaoxiang to walk the rivers and lakes and act chivalrous! ”

Fleur immediately snorted twice and said, "Grandma, I don't allow you to say such unlucky things. You will definitely live a long life, and your life will be the same as that of heaven! ”

Wu Zetian smiled: "Then I won't become an old witch?" Birth, old age, sickness and death, human nature, death is nothing to be afraid of, as the old saying goes, people are inherently dead, or lighter than a feather, or heavier than Mount Tai, it depends on whether death is worth it. But if I die here today, I'll be a little lighter! Lin Shaoxia, what do you say? ”

Although Lin Shaoxia knew what she meant, he could tell that Wu Zetian meant that if he died here, it would be very unworthy. Feiyun thought to herself, since this was the case, why not persuade her to give up her plan to go to Yuquan Temple?

Feiyun said: "Madame has excellent knowledge, so she is naturally reasonable. If Madame doesn't think it's worth it, why bother to be stubborn and put yourself in danger? If something happens to you, I won't be able to go back and explain it! ”

Wu Zetian was a little disappointed, sighed, and said softly: "It seems that you are really brothers and sisters who are like fakes, it is completely a nostril out of breath, last time it was the girl who persuaded me, is it your turn to persuade me this time?" Let me tell you, I have to go to Yuquan Temple! Don't think about going back as soon as possible, so that you can get on errands. ”

Feiyun was broken by Wu Zetian's words, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a while. He didn't have much to deal with in the face of such a stubborn person.

Liangchen saw that Feiyun was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said, "Madam, you misunderstood what my eldest brother meant, we didn't want to rush back so early." We have never been to the Central Plains before, and we really want to take this opportunity to get to know the customs of various places. ”

Liangchen paused, and then said, "My eldest brother is purely thinking about his wife. Look at the two days, you have been attacked one after another, and the degree of danger has become more and more thrilling each time. These people are not easy to deal with, we are afraid that if we are not careful, someone will take advantage of the loophole, then it will be too late to regret it! ”

Wu Zetian looked at Liangchen and said, "This Xu Zhitang also had two strokes, and he actually came up with such a vicious and clever strategy. It seems that he is stronger than his father, I am afraid that he inherited it from his grandfather Xu Ji, but it is a pity that he does not follow the right path. Otherwise, if he uses this wisdom to protect his family and defend the country, he will be worthy of his grandfather! ”

Although the three of Feiyun knew Li Jingye, they had never heard of Xu Ji. Liangchen saw that Wu Zetian didn't hate Xu Zhitang very much in his words, and he was a little regretful, and he seemed to appreciate Xu Zhitang's grandfather very much.

Liangchen was already curious, and as soon as he encountered something new, he naturally wanted to understand it clearly, so he asked, "Madam, who is Xu Ji?" Why haven't we heard of this person, which sect is he a master? ”

Liangchen thought that since this Xu Ji is Xu Zhitang's grandfather, it is estimated that he is in his seventies. A person of such an age must have profound internal strength. If he also came to help Xu Zhitang, then Xu Zhitang would be even more difficult to deal with. From Wu Zetian's tone, it can be heard that this Xu Ji is definitely not simple, and even Wu Zetian seems to be very jealous of this person.

Wu Zetian listened to Liangchen's words, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed happily. I didn't want to choke on a mouthful of phlegm, so I coughed for a long time and couldn't speak for a while.

Shangguan Wan'er hurriedly stepped forward with Furong, one patted Wu Zetian on the back, and the other helped Wu Zetian smooth his chest. After a long while, Wu Zetian came to his senses. Wu Zetian pointed at Shangguan Wan'er and asked Shangguan Wan'er to answer Liangchen's question.

Shangguan Wan'er bowed down and agreed, and turned to ask Liangchen if she knew about Lingyan Pavilion. Liangchen nodded, saying that he knew that it was a list of heroes, but some people didn't know, they only knew that these people were no longer alive.

Shangguan Wan'er smiled slightly, and told Liangchen that this Xu Ji was one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. However, Xu Ji was also a figure in the rivers and lakes in his early years, named Xu Maogong. Later, he joined the Wagang Army and became a military advisor against Emperor Yang of Sui.

Liangchen sighed, but did not interrupt Shangguan Wan'er's words. Although Liangchen didn't know Xu Ji, he had heard some stories about Xu Maogong. Liangchen knew that he was the military advisor of Wagangzhai, and fought against the officials and troops of the Sui Dynasty together with the heroes of Wagang, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin, Luo Cheng, Shan Xiongxin and others.

Liangchen is only hearsay, not a lot. Shan Xiongxin was originally a hero in the green forests of the north, and Qin Shubao and others were very famous in the rivers and lakes, and there were more stories about them. For Xu Maogong, a literati, naturally no one pays attention to the rivers and lakes.

Shangguan Wan'er saw that Liangchen and others listened very attentively, so they continued to preach, and later Xu Maogong, Qin Shubao, Cheng Yanjin and others defected to Emperor Taizong and became famous generals in the imperial court, and they all made great contributions.

Xu Maogong was an expedition to Liaodong, and later broke the Turks, able to fight well and resourceful. Wu Zetian also admired him, reused him, and gave him an official and a knight. After the death of Duke Xu Mao, his title was continued by Li Jingye, who rebelled in Yangzhou.

Liangchen actually didn't understand why Li Jingye and Xu Zhitang were not the same surname, and thought that Xu Zhitang was afraid that people would know that he was forced to change his surname because he was Li Jingye's son. But listening to Shangguan Wan'er say this, it doesn't seem to be the case.

Liangchen asked: "Shangguan girl, since this Xu Ji Xu Maogong and Li Jingye are father and son, why do they have one surname Xu and the other surname Li?" ”

Shangguan Wan'er replied: "Because Xu Ji has made great contributions, Emperor Taizong gave Xu Ji the royal surname, so Xu Ji became Li Ji." His son's surname was naturally Li. Later, Li Jingye rebelled, and his wife originally did not allow him to take the surname Li, but changed his surname back to Xu. I'm afraid that you don't know, so I'll call him Li Jingye. ”
