The hall was filled with smoke, and gray-haired witches were barefoot in rituals, holding bundles of grass and shaking. An Lushan danced and muttered prayers to the portrait of the spiritual god.

At last, he breathed a sigh of relief, and was so tired that he sat down again on the Hu bed.

Li Zhu'er stepped forward and reported in a low voice: "Sage, Daoist Li is here." ”

Because the Zoroastrian priests had just gone down, Li Zhu'er was worried that An Lushan would not be convenient to see Li Yaozhou, so he couldn't help but be a little worried. But An Lushan said: "Quick, let Daochang Li come in!" ”

The thin figure had just entered the hall, and before Li Yaozhou approached, An Lushan couldn't wait to ask, "Dao Chief, can my enthronement ceremony be advanced?" ”

"The birth of a saint has not been advanced, how can the ceremony be changed." Li Yaozhou's tone was detached, and even with a faint smile, he said: "Needless to say, needless to say, the poor Dao knows what the saint is worried about, everything is just a catastrophe, after the catastrophe, the saint can turn into a black pig and a dragon." ”

Here in An Lushan, the black pig is not an insulting word, but one of the incarnations of the god of battle, so the "black pig turns into a dragon" is actually a statement that they came up with to show that the world believes that a Sogdian and Zoroastrian is the true son of the dragon, and it has been spreading everywhere recently.

"Dao Chief, don't lie to me!" An Lushan's eyes were still unfocused, his face twitched slightly, revealing ruthlessness, and said: "Even if I die, I have to be the emperor before I die!" ”

Although his birthday was on the first day of the first lunar month, if it weren't for Li Yaozhou's instigation, he would have ascended the throne as emperor a few months earlier. Now that none of the smooth scenes that Li Yaozhou had depicted were realized, and the situation was getting worse and worse like that damn disease, he began to feel that he had been deceived by Li Yaozhou.

First, he was deceived into attacking the eastern capital, which had no grain reserves, and then he was deceived so that he didn't even think of the emperor, wouldn't it be too stupid?!

"A saint must not have such bad words." Li Yao twisted his long beard and said: "Poor Dao night observation of the sky, the saint's life star is Zhongtian, Enguang Yang Huo, Longchi Phoenix Pavilion." Recently, there is a fierce star according to the fate, wanting to take the life of the saint, fortunately the left and the right, the greedy wolf, the giant gate, Lian Zhen, and Wuqu meet each other, and the life saving star is in danger. Therefore, when it comes to January, it will turn the tide of danger. ”

"You're still lying to me!" An Lushan was angry and roared.

"Before the first month comes, how can the saint be recognized?" Li Yaozhou is calm.

"It's too late to wait until January!"

After that, no matter how angry and threatening An Lushan, Li Yaozhou was always that light and breezy appearance, even if An Lushan threatened to behead him, he refused to let go and let An Lushan ascend the throne in advance.

"Back then, the poor road was in Chang'an, and it was respected by the Son of Heaven. Ran Poor Dao saw that his life star was dim, and he drifted away, not burdened by fame and wealth. So far, the poor road is not deterred by the knife and the axe. ”

Seeing him like this, An Lushan finally lost his anger, and regretted his unreasonableness, so he rolled on the bed of the beard, and said obediently like a child: "I want to ascend the throne earlier, can't the Taoist rely on me once?" ”

"Before the birthday comes, forcibly ascend the throne, my life is afraid that it will be taken by the evil star."

"Why?"

Li Yaozhou was about to speak, when a commotion suddenly sounded outside the hall.

"General Tian, you can't break in!"

"I want to see the saint!"

An Lushan's eyes couldn't see clearly, and he could hear Tian Qianzhen's voice, so he asked, "Ah Hao, what are you doing?" Daochang Li has something important to tell me! ”

"The saint doesn't have to listen to Li Yaozhou's nonsense anymore, this person is Xue Bai's internal response!"

"Hahaha." Li Yaozhou seemed to have heard the joke, and smiled heartily, his voice was clear, and he seemed sincere and frank just by laughing.

An Lushan patted the bed and scolded: "Get out!" Li Daochang left the faint monarch and lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, how could it be Xue Bai's internal response? ! ”

Tian Qianzhen took out a few letters from his bosom and said: "Sage, this is a letter written to me by Prime Minister Gao, he once captured the people of Luhun Villa for interrogation, and learned that the person who refined gunpowder for Xue Bai is an old man, with a thin body and a long beard, isn't it Li Yaozhou?" ”

He obviously had more evidence, and without waiting for Li Yaozhou to quibble, he said: "The minister has checked, although Li Yaozhou once worshiped the imperial front, but ()

A charlatan who offered fake medicine, quietly absconded after the defeat, and the faint monarch did not dare to publicize it for his full reputation, only saying that he was in seclusion, but many princes used Xingyang centipede bags and were ineffective, knowing the inside story. Over the years, Li Yao has no news, not living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, but has actually been working under Xue Bai. ”

General An Lushan was skeptical and said, "Dao Chief, how do you explain?" ”

"The greedy wolf star moves, and the main star is in danger." Li Yaozhou didn't care, waved the dust in his hand, and said, "This is just Xue Bai's plan to divide the world." ”

Tian Qianzhen said: "Whether it's separated or not, I can't tell the difference?!" ”

Li Yaozhou smiled faintly and did not answer.

Tian Qianzhen said: "In the past few nights, you have been pushing dominoes with An Shouzhong, have you?" ”

"So what?"

At this moment, an attendant stepped forward and said, "Sage, Yan Xiang is here." ”

An Lushan immediately summoned him, and soon, Yan Zhuang walked in, saw that Li Yaozhou was also there, and said directly: "Sage, the minister is here to take Li Yaozhou." The minister has interrogated Da Xixun, and it is indeed Xue Bai's internal response, and Li Yaozhou was introduced by him, which is very suspicious. ”

"Daoist Li! What else do you have to explain?! ”

"The giant gate is moving, dangerous, dangerous."

Yan Zhuang said: "The saint doesn't need to pay attention to his rumors to confuse the public, just hand him over to the ministers." Under Miki, and there is the truth. ”

Tian Qianzhen did not compete with Yan Zhuang for the dominance of this matter, but let him take Li Yaozhou away. He was left alone, because he had more important things to report to An Lushan.

"Sage, An Shouzhong also secretly fell to Xue Bai."

"I don't believe it."

"There is evidence." Tian Qianzhen said, "A few days ago, the minister found out that An Shouzhong was wrong, and after careful inspection, he found that his business had always been related to Xue Bai's Fenghui Bank, not to mention that he and Li Yaozhou moved around frequently. Therefore, Chen planted a henchman to watch by his side, and tonight he really noticed his abnormal movements. ”

An Lushan was very shocked, fell on the Hu bed, raised his fist and slammed it, and shouted again: "I don't believe it! ”

"Xue Bai attacked the city with gunpowder tonight, but in fact, it was to pass on the secret letter to An Shouzhong, and An Shouzhong got the letter but hid it privately, presumably not to report it to the saint?"

"He'll report it to me in a moment?"

Tian Qianzhen knew that although An Lushan often liked to say some naïve words, he was actually not confused in major matters, so he said straightforwardly: "The minister has a strategy, but he can plan and annihilate Xue Bai!" ”

"Ashina Chengqing is already on the way back with the troops, as soon as Fan Yangxiao arrives, Xue Bai will naturally die, I must break him into ten thousand pieces!"

An Lushan swore a fierce curse, and then thought that the hearts of the people in the city were fluctuating, in case something else happened, so he asked: "What is Ah Hao's plan?" It's not a clever idea, I don't listen. ”

~~

"Did you find Lu Yi's box?"

When Yan Zhuang left Ziwei Palace, the first thing he did was to ask his subordinates about it.

However, he was surprised by the answer.

"Nope."

"How so?" Yan Zhuang said, "Have you found Lu Mansion and Yushitai?" ”

"I've found it, and the box should have been placed in the Imperial Observatory before. It is said that Lu Yi was still reading the scrolls inside before he died. ”

Yan Zhuang thought for a while and said, "I remember, Lu Yi's son is named Lu Qi, right?" But he took it? ”

"Probably not, the villain asked the soldiers who captured Lu Yi, and said that they did see the box on the day of the city break, and they didn't bother to touch it when they saw that it was full of books. Oh, before Lu Yi tied it, he also put the roll in his hand. ”

"In other words, when we entered the city, that box of books was still there?"

"Yes."

"In that case, where else can we go?"

"The villain doesn't know."

"Let you check!"

It seemed like a trivial matter, but Yan Zhuang realized that the situation was very serious. If any of the Wenchen in the Great Yan Dynasty took away that policy of governing the country, it was likely that they would all fall to Xue Bai again.

But who could it be?

Zhang Tongru? Flat? These two have known Xue Bai in the past ()

, very suspicious. It's just that they are now following An Qingxu to attack Tongguan, and when they can't take away such a large box of books, they can check their mansion.

In addition, where is the explosives that Yan Chunqing brought into Luoyang?

Yan Zhuang turned his head, glanced at the tall Ming Hall, and walked over there.

Ziwei Palace is the pattern of the front dynasty and the back bed, and the Ming Hall is in the former dynasty, which is equivalent to the imperial city of Chang'an, and it is the place where the national policy is handled. During the Wu Zetian period, people were even allowed to visit.

In order to prepare for the enthronement ceremony for An Lushan, it is now being repaired day and night to add a shrine.

"Take down all the craftsmen!"

"Whoa!"

The arrest of the craftsman went very smoothly, and no one resisted, Yan Zhuang first checked all the materials and found no problems, and then brought people into it to check carefully, and there was still nothing unusual.

Finally, he locked his eyes on the dragon chair and was stunned for a long time, until someone called him behind him.

"Yan Xiang."

Yan Zhuang turned his head and saw that it was Li Zhu'er coming, so he nodded.

The two are not very familiar, but because they have both been whipped by An Lushan, they have a faint sense of pity for each other.

"The Dragon Chair Saint has ordered someone to investigate, but no explosives have been found." Li Zhu'er said, "The entire Mingtang is there, and I brought more than a dozen hunting dogs to smell it carefully, and there is no pungent smell at all." ”

"That's good."

"One more thing." Li Zhu'er said, "Since Li Yaozhou is a false master, the saint does not want to wait until the first day of the first month to ascend the throne again, and wants to do it earlier." ”

Yan Zhuang groaned: "Then it is not appropriate to ascend the throne when the Tang army is attacking the city, how about annihilating Xue Bai?" ”

"I know that Yan Xiang will say this, and the sage will let the slave and maid tell Yan Xiang, and he will soon be able to annihilate Xue Bai."

"Yes, clowns, don't be afraid."

Yan Zhuang still checked Mingtang, but still found no abnormality, so he stood at the highest place, and after waiting for a long time, he saw a round of golden sun slowly rising from the Luo water flowing to the sky.

He sighed tiredly, but he couldn't end his busyness, and turned to interrogate Li Yaozhou.

~~

"You don't have to be punished, it's just a poor trick."

Li Yaozhou was tied to the torture rack, and his expression had changed, and a cordial smile even appeared on his face.

Yan Zhuang said: "Using the punishment can help you think more and recruit faster." ”

"I can make gunpowder." Li Yaozhou was still smiling, but the smile in his eyes didn't seem to be flattering, as if there was a hint of pride.

"Wait."

Yan Zhuang still raised his hand, stopped the torture, and said, "Recruit first." ”

"After I deceived the faint monarch of Chang'an, I was indeed taken down by Xue Bai's kid, he took a fancy to my alchemy ability, and held the evidence of my guilt in his hand, saying that if I didn't serve him, it would be a capital crime, so I had no choice but to do things for him."

Li Yaozhou was very happy, and said: "When Fan Yangjun arrives, Yan Chunqing will take me to Luoyang, wanting me to arrange gunpowder to help Gao Xianzhi defend the city." But when I saw Gao Xianzhi, there was a mutiny in Luoyang not long after, and the soldiers who had not been rewarded killed people to open the city gate. I took advantage of the chaos to get out and left Yan Chunqing, but this old arm and old leg fled slowly, and Fan Yang's army had already entered the city. It just so happened that I saw Da Xixun on the side of the road to guide the new monarch, and because I had been an old acquaintance with him in the past, I found him and asked him to introduce me to him. ”

"Mr. Mo always said it was useless." Yan Zhuang sneered tiredly and said, "I want to know where the explosives you brought into Luoyang are." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Gao Xianzhi has been shipped to Shaanxi County."

"He didn't leave them in Luoyang for a raid?"

Li Yaozhou said: "If the explosives are left, there must be a dead soldier to ignite it." Gao Xianzhi went to Luoyang alone to recruit troops, how could there be a manpower arrangement? ”

"He didn't, how could Xue Bai not have it?" Yan Zhuang said: "For example...... You. ”

"Gao Xianzhi got this sharp weapon, and he didn't want to let go easily. As far as he is concerned, it is a great achievement to make good use of firearms in the narrow passage of the Yellow River Gorge and defeat the main force of the rebels. ”

"The old guy is thick-skinned, and he won't be recruited without punishment."

()

"I can say everything I know, and there are many things you want to hear about Shouyang Mountain?" Li Yaozhou said: "Before Fanyang's army crossed the Yellow River, Da Xi Yingying personally went to Shouyang Mountain and talked to Yin Liang about supporting the crown prince, and they wooed Ge Shuhan. ”

Yan Zhuang's expression moved, and he couldn't ignore the 200,000 troops in Tongguan, so he said, "Let's talk carefully." ”

“……”

Li Yaozhou talked for a long time, but someone came to invite Yan Zhuang, saying that An Lushan summoned him.

The light inside the torture room was dim, but the sky was blazing outside, Yan Zhuang squinted, and finally got used to the light, and when he entered the 100 million years old hall, it was very dim inside.

"Sage."

An Lushan on the bed of Hu was like a pile of dead meat, and suddenly came to life, and said, "Xue Bai has sent an envoy!" ”

"What?" Yan Zhuang was stunned for a moment.

"He asked me if I would like to kill Chang'an together and support Li Cong. Afterwards, he was named the king of my Yan, hereditary replacement, Yongzhen Youzhou. ”

Yan Zhuang turned his head, glanced at Tian Qianzhen standing in the hall, and saw that the other party did not speak, so he responded: "The matter can be one, not again." Xue Bai deceived Li Huaixian with this trick, and now he is doing it again, is it a fool to deceive us? ”

It should be that An Lushan and Tian Qianzhen said that they didn't express their position, and they first looked at what Yan Zhuang said. At this time, as soon as he heard this, Tian Qianzhen became excited and said, "Sage, what Yan Xiang said is reasonable. ”

"I will be the emperor first, Chang'an can't be captured, why not return to Youzhou?" An Lushan wanted to ascend the throne as soon as possible, but he was broken and broken, and seeing that he had a way to live, his mentality was different, and he said: "Ah Hao, you also said before, if things don't work, you will tear the soil and seal the king." ”

"The key is that Xue Bai is not sincere, he has deceived Li Huaixian once before."

"I can read Li Huaixian's letter, and Xue Bai also meant this at the time." An Lushan fox said suspiciously: "Ah Hao, did you really kill Li Huaixian?" ”

"I have been a saint since I was a child, you watched grow up, if the saint does not believe me, I will take out my heart and show it to the saint!"

"You don't see Xue Bai is majestic now, and the faint monarch also wants his life. Let's see, as soon as Ashina Chengqing's army arrives, Xue Bai is cornered, of course he has to beg me. ”

Yan solemnly said: "What the sage said is reasonable......

Tian Qianzhen saw the change in Yan Zhuang's attitude, and in a hurry, he suddenly figured it out, and hurriedly said: "I understand, Xue Bai must be for the temptation!" ”

"What do you mean?"

"I made a plan with the sage to lure Xue Bai into Hanjiacang City to annihilate him in the name of An Shouzhong." Tian Qianzhen said: "Xue Bai is cautious, trustworthy, and does not dare to rashly send troops, so he sent an envoy to investigate, it must be to contact An Shouzhong and confirm the truth of this matter." ”

"That's how it should be." Yan Zhuang nodded.

An Lushan was still worried, and said: "He has never been stupid. If you cooperate with me from the beginning, it is called a combination of two miles, and you have to find death. ”

"Xue Bai is so hateful, the saint bypassed him and went straight to talk to Ge Shuhan."

"Wonderful." An Lushan was overjoyed and said: "It is worthy of Yan Xiang, this matter is like this, get rid of Xue Bai, and recruit Ge Shuhan...... That was also a dog thief, who humiliated me in front of the faint king back then, and put up with him for the sake of the great cause. ”

~~

"Hu Laishui, the general of the Hengyang Army of the Tang Dynasty, was ordered by Changshan Xue Taishou to enter the city to appease!"

With this shout, a young general in armor drove his horse to the gate of Luoyang City and shouted quite publicly.

Hu Laishui has been following Xue Bai for seven years, at first he was just a partner of Fenghui Bank, and gradually he was trained to be a spy and a guard, and in the past two years, he has been training private soldiers with Fan Jian on Shouyang Mountain, and he has also been running around in Chang'an and Luoyang. This time, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him to be able to experience fighting with the king. Because he is Xue Bai's confidant, he was temporarily awarded the position of a general during the war, which has never been the best in their whole village, and when the war is calmed down, the future will only be better.

But he felt that he was not worthy of such an official position, and he had the heart to make meritorious contributions, so he asked for his life to enter the city this time.

Soon, the city gate slowly opened, and on both sides were cavalry standing with swords raised, which was terrifying, but Hu Laishui was not frightened, and drove his horse into the city.

"Drink!"

The gates of the city were closed, and the guards on both sides suddenly shouted loudly, and waved their swords to chop Hu Laishui ()

Appearance. However, he laughed and said loudly: "I am ordered by Xue Taishou to hand over the letter of state, if An Lushan doesn't want it, just kill it, don't bluff!" ”

At the head of the city, Tian Qianzhen saw this scene and sneered slightly, although there was murderous intent in his eyes, it was not aimed at the rampant pawn. As long as Xue Bai can be tricked into Hanjiacang City, all the Tang troops will be annihilated by him.

"General An, make sure he believes you."

"Ah Hao, I really didn't collude with Xue Bai." An Shouzhong said with a bitter face.

"I don't care." Tian Qianzhen said, "I just let you do what you want, please show your majesty, and let the Tang Army see that you are still presiding over the Luoyang guard." ”

"Okay."

An Shouzhong sighed, rode his horse and galloped up on the head of the city, and someone behind him erected his banner. He looked at it, although he was still a general, the defense of the city had been transferred to Tian Qianzhen.

Yan Zhuang watched these situations in the Ming Hall, and when Tian Qianzhen entered the Ming Hall, he couldn't help asking: "Changing generals in battle, generals don't know soldiers, soldiers don't know generals, can you really annihilate Xue Bai?" ”

"Last time he was lucky, this time, I want him to die." Tian Qianzhen gritted his teeth and said.

Yan Zhuang was faintly uneasy, thinking that Tian Qianzhen was a little too impulsive in order to avenge Gao Shang. If an army is defeated once, it is often easy to lose a second time.

Fortunately, there is still a partition wall in Hanjiacang City, and An Qinghe, the son of An Lushan, will personally defend it tonight, and Tian Qian's plan will not come true, and he will not let Xue Bai enter Luoyang.

"It's a pity that it's not Xue Bai and Wang Rare who came, it's just a nobody......"

At this time, An Lushan had been carried over, placed on the second floor of the Ming Hall, rubbed his eyes, and his vision was blurred.

"Sage, the messenger has arrived."

An Lushan didn't bother to look at it, and muttered, "I really want to kill him." ”

Below the Ming Hall, Hu Laishui could only walk to the pedestal, and a column of soldiers had raised their bows and arrows to face him.

He had no consciousness of being a nobody, and he was very dissatisfied with such treatment, raised his head and looked at An Lushan above.

"Taishou wants to discuss major matters with the king of Dongping County, why does the king regret to give the last general a meeting?"

After shouting, Hu Laishui untied his belt, took off his armor in front of countless arrows, and even took off his robe inside, standing naked on the cold snow.

"In this way, the king of Dongping County would like to see him?!"

It's a pity that when he made this step, An Lushan above the Ming Hall couldn't be seen at all.

An Lushan only heard that the messenger had lost his clothes, and the birds were about to freeze, so he said, "Let him freeze." ”

After a long time, An Lushan couldn't sit still and asked, "Are you freezing to death?" ”

"Back to the saints, not yet."

"It's so frost-resistant."

Finally, Tian Qianzhen couldn't help it anymore and said, "Sage, I still need to let him go back and report to Xue Bai." ”

"Okay, then let him get dressed." An Lushan was greatly disappointed.

"Whoa."

Li Zhu'er then stepped down from the hall, walked in front of Hu Laishui, and said, "The sage ordered you to put on your clothes." ”

"Please see the king of Dongping County!"

Li Zhu'er shouted loudly: "Give me the letter, you go back and tell Xue Bai that Master Fan Yangxiong is coming soon, if he wants to talk to the sage, he will come in person, you get out!" ”

"Please see the king of Dongping County!"

"Hey, you idiot."

Seeing this, Li Zhu'er had no choice but to pick up the clothes on the ground, put them on Hu Laishui, and scolded in his mouth.

Probably because Hu Laishui exposed the thing under him in public, but Li Zhu'er had already lost this object, and his mood was very complicated, so he couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

Although the surrounding guards all saw it, they knew that An Lushan didn't see it, and no one talked about this trivial matter. They had all heard that Li Zhu'er was castrated by the saint himself.

……

Over there, Hu Laishui went out of Luoyang, and when he passed by the East Gate, he saw An Shouzhong patrolling the city, glanced at him lightly, and nodded.

The meaning is obvious, you can attack the city tonight.

~~

()

Everyone dispersed, Yan Zhuang was still standing on the Ming Hall, looking at Luoyang City in the sunset, thinking about it again in his heart, and realizing that An Lushan was right.

Xue Bai seems to be very powerful, but he has two fatal weaknesses, one is that he lacks troops and cannot attack, and the other is that he has insufficient time and cannot fight for a long time. And the inner Ying in the city has also been screened out, and Xue Bai lacks an opportunity to really break through Luoyang quickly.

Tian Qianzhen persuaded An Lushan to replace An Shouzhong, that is, to be invincible, no matter whether the plan is successful or not, Luoyang City can be defended.

Unless, Tian Qian is really guilty, but that is obviously impossible.

"Yan Xiang."

Someone walked up behind Yan Zhuang again and asked, "Has Yan Xiang found more internal responses in the city?" ”

"It's not going to be." Yan Zhuang said, "So far, Xue Bai has not had a person who can really help him take the city. Da Xixun and Li Yaozhou can't do it, they can't be trusted from the beginning, and An Shouzhong can't do it, he can't make up his mind. ”

"That'...... How about the slave and maid pointing out one person for Yan Xiang? ”

"Oh?" Yan Zhuang thought of the box of books that had disappeared inexplicably, and asked, "Who?" ”

"It's Yan Xiangyou."

"Me?"

Yan Zhuang smiled dumbly, shook his hand again and again, and said, "You misunderstood, I have been looking for the inner response in the city, how can I be the internal response?" ”

The next moment, his face froze, and he realized, so he turned around and asked again.

"Me? It turned out to be me. ”
