The long street was quiet in the dead of night, and occasionally there were a few bangs on the watch.

There was a creaking sound of the door closing behind him.

Lu Liangsheng walked across the street, glanced back, the courtyard that was still lit by lanterns, and the father and daughter over there went in and gently closed the courtyard door.

The silver-white hair was stroked in the wind, and he came back to his senses and continued to move forward, he hadn't seen her for all these years, after all, it was a good thing, he used his own essence and blood, accompanied by him, and he paid off a love debt.

"It's good now. ”

A few years have passed, and it is difficult for ordinary people to keep up with the changes around them, from his parents, Lu Liangsheng can clearly understand that between the two is not 'one of you is willing' to make up for it, ordinary people and immortals, and cultivators, there are insurmountable things, in the next few decades, one person is about to die, and one person's age is like stagnation on his face, and in the end, nothing can be left except sadness.

"That's good. ”

Lu Liangsheng repeated a sentence again, walking slowly on the long street in the dead of night, and unconsciously came to the foot of the imperial city, the soldiers brought a special carriage to ride, and drove through the long palace road.

"Li Qing was able to come back safe and sound from Taiyuan, and I felt relieved in my heart. ”

"Your Majesty, the minister can come back, all thanks to Qu Lang and the dog escorting him on the way...... Right now, the two bandit armies have merged into one force in Jindi, and their forces are huge, Your Majesty should respond as soon as possible!"

Li Yuan, who said this, and the emperor above are cousins, who grew up in Chang'an together since childhood, not only family affection, but also calloused friendship, which is difficult for others to say so directly.

"What my cousin said is true, but I have never been afraid of them!" Yang Guang got up from behind the dragon case, didn't care about Li Yuan's tone, walked down the imperial steps with both hands, helped the other party up, and also raised his hand to let his nephews get up, "It's a big deal, I fell with the country, and when I arrived in Yincao, I was also worthy of my father and the emperor, and I was also worthy of Han Zhuguo." ”

"Your Majesty really wants to die with the country?"

"Hmph, it's just dead. Yang Guang gritted his teeth and walked past everyone to the front, looking at the night outside the hall, "Die with the country, even if I am the king of the country, I am still glorious even if I am defeated." ”

Footsteps outside were faintly trotting.

"Cousin, how could it be easy for the first emperor and the civil and military forces to ......conquer this country back then," he took a deep breath, turned around, looked at Li Yuan, and clenched his fists, "....... When my father passed away, I promised him to complete the Grand Canal and create a peaceful and prosperous era...... And, all the time, too. ”

Li Yuan pursed his lips, he was also guarding Yang Jian's side at that time, and when he heard it again at this moment, he was somewhat empathetic, nodded, took half a step forward, and clenched his fists violently: "Your Majesty has this ambition, whether it is a cousin or a courtier of Your Majesty, you swear to advance and retreat with Your Majesty, if you take half a step back, people and gods will be punished together!"

His voice was resolute.

As he spoke, the footsteps outside the door approached, and a eunuch came to the door of the palace and bowed: "Your Majesty, the national teacher is visiting late at night." ”

In the brightly lit side hall, the continuous sound of words suddenly became quiet, Li Yuan's face was flushed with joy, and Li Yuanba, who was covering his ears and didn't want to listen to what emperor his father was talking to, also widened his eyes, grinned, and hurriedly greeted Qu Yuanfeng, who was bandaging his arm, to the outside of the palace gate.

Under the white rock steps in front of the main hall, a carriage drove through the square and slowly stopped here, the curtain opened, Lu Liangsheng slowly came down, and saw the two apprentices who ushered in, and there was a slight smile on his tense face.

"Master!" the big and the small hurriedly knelt on the ground and arched their hands.

"It's fine. Seeing that Qu Yuanfeng's injuries were not serious, Lu Liangsheng helped the two apprentices up, and Li Yuanba on the side followed him vigorously, jocturing excitedly.

"Master, don't you know, these few Japanese tyrants are so powerful, the sledgehammer is swung away, what kind of immortals, it's not a matter of a hammer, and it directly smashes them flat......"

"National Teacher!"

Listening to the little apprentice talking, at the door of the hall over there, Yang Guang, Li Yuan, and Li Shimin were standing there, and the former made a gesture of please and invited Lu Liangsheng to sit down and talk.

"Your Majesty, please. ”

......

"National teacher, why did you come late at night?"

"I feel that Delong still has Yuanba and Yuanfeng returning to the city, come and take a look. ”

The burning lamppost shone out a warm yellow breath, and the firelight cut out the figure sitting in the seat and reflected on the hall pillar, Lu Liangsheng said a few words, his eyes swept over everyone, and he said what he meant.

"Your Majesty, there is no outsider here, and the minister will pick up the important ones. ”

The three words 'no outsiders' made Li Yuan and Li Shimin stiffen their chests and listen quietly to what the national teacher had to say without squinting.

"The gods have passed, and the heroes of heaven and earth have all returned to their places, and the ministers will not go out of the city to confront the stars, but I still hope that Your Majesty will let the soldiers and generals who arranged the front line retreat to protect Chang'an. ”

Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, and even Li Yuan was puzzled.

"National teacher, why is this?"

Over there, the light shone on Lu Liangsheng's old face, and his drooping eyes lifted, so scruples, it was better to say that it was better to open it, he sighed, and put down the teacup in his hand.

"It will be difficult for ordinary soldiers to hurt them, even the thieves and soldiers, they can't hurt them, and rushing forward is only to increase casualties. ”

The night breeze blew into the door of the store, and the rows of burning lampposts swayed the flames, and for a while Li Yuan frowned and fell into silence, Yang Guangcheng walked back and forth in front of the dragon case, and turned his head to look at Lu Liangsheng under the lamplight.

"National Teacher, if you do this, only those Yin Gods, but this can stop them?"

This matter is not as simple as making a disturbance in the world, otherwise Yang Guang and other civil and military forces would not be so passive, especially under the siege of all sides, it is difficult to even go out and demolish the temples in various states and counties.

"There are only generals, but there are no soldiers, and it is difficult for the ministers to predict the victory or defeat!"

Lu Liangsheng shook his head, but he always felt as if he was missing something, how could he not think of it, looking at the night outside the palace, the wind brought a slight coolness blowing through the imperial city, in the city of thousands of lights, the light of every household gradually went out, and went to the longevity view of the southeast Furong Pond, and the toad Taoist pouted his ass and turned out a piece of robe and pants from the small wardrobe and threw it on the bed.

It took a long time to find a fur hat and put it on his bare head, jumped to the desk, looked at the bronze mirror, turned his face to the scroll hanging on the wall, and asked.

"Little female ghost, look at the old man, does it look like a ..... Emperor?"

What attracted a chuckle from the painting.

The night was deep, outside the city of Chang'an, hundreds of miles to the north, under the starry night sky, there were speckled bonfires burning, and the soldiers patrolled a big tent in the past, and the sound of talking continued to sound.

"It seems that Lu Liangsheng in the city has opened the god again with the Kongtong seal. ”

"Hmph, what? There are fewer and fewer gods in this world, and even fewer people can use them. ”

"Black Star, you can't say that, two days ago, the Yin God who shot an arrow to kill several of my immortal soldiers seems to be called Lu Bu, a little powerful, I can't say that Lu Liangsheng, the Yin Ghost of the Edict is a rare powerful person in the world. ”

"In the final analysis, Huang Feihu is no longer with us. ”

"He can't be short of human offerings. ”

"If you meet such a fierce Yin God in the world, there must be some trouble"

"That's not necessarily, when our stars come down, there are also three princes like this, and the Four Heavenly Kings are also here, and they are still worried about the yin god in the world. ”

The three people named Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou, and Wei Chigong sat in the tent drinking and talking, and then Qi Qi turned his head to look at the four figures on the other side of the tent.

The next moment, four young men who looked like scholars, with their heads held high, nodded with serious expressions.

"There are four people including me, and three of them can rest assured!"
