Xiao Tiantu wrapped the three outer layers of the Divine Dragon Slash Suburi.

The streets were bustling, and no one paid attention to the man in brocade robe galloping through the street on a fiery horse, he had not been so relaxed for too long.

Xiao Tiantu had made full preparations for today a few days ago, and he ordered that by noon today, the city gate should be opened wide, and no passers-by should be checked.

After leaving the city gate, Xiao Tiantu walked far away before holding on to the reins and looking back at Taiping City.

The defenders of Taiping City couldn't see it very clearly, and Xiao Tiantu only saw the many civilians who came in and out from the city gate from time to time.

Some people passed by him, and did not look at him much, and these people were in a hurry, or they were in a hurry, or they were in a hurry, or they were in a hurry, and they were very relieved at the foot of this day.

I especially remember that year, when Xiao Tiantu saw this Taiping City for the first time, the military flag on the city tower still had a thousand characters written on it, and Xiao Tiantu was facing a dense row of red-armored soldiers.

At that time, Xiao Tiantu was in high spirits, raised the dragon slash, and did not do much persuasion, just with a wave, the group of brothers behind him rushed out like a bow and arrow, accompanied by a shout of killing, this Kyoto, has not seen this kind of smoke and dust for hundreds of years.

At that station, killing people and punishing hearts, those so-called elite soldiers and red armor failed to stop this group of victorious divisions, Xiao Tiantu led the eight thousand vanguard army to surround Kyoto, and since then, there has been no one in Kyoto.

This battle can probably forever become an example for generals to talk about in the future.

Xiao Tiantu's state of mind at this time was very different from that time.

He smiled wryly, as if laughing at himself, he had never thought of leaving this place again, but this time, he had to leave.

Because he found that things seemed to slow down, this group of people had their own thoughts, he couldn't wait, he wanted to completely light the last fire.

Xiao Tiantu pulled the horse south, and when he passed by the suburbs, there happened to be a teahouse, and he suddenly stopped and dismounted to ask for a cup of tea.

When the old couple saw that he was dressed in brocade, they knew that his status was not low, and they smiled unnaturally and waited carefully.

Xiao Tiantu saw them like this, so he smiled and said: "You don't have to be restrained, I am just a businessman, I came to Kyoto to do some business, and I want to go south to go home today, passing by here, I feel thirsty, so I want to ask for a cup of tea." “

The husband and wife looked at each other, and their eyes were much more relaxed.

Xiao Tiantu has not been to this kind of place for more than ten years.

He deliberately asked, "Shopkeeper, I see that this place is a little far from Kyoto, and there are few people, how is the security nearby?"

"This law and order, it's good. There were no other customers in the store, and the husband saw that Xiao Tiantu wanted to chat, so he hurried back to him.

Xiao Tiantu said: "I heard that all the state capitals are making trouble with horse thieves because of the war, why is there no one here?"

The husband said without thinking: "Oh, this guest master, don't you also know that this is Kyoto? Who dares to come to spread wilderness at the foot of this Son of Heaven? Let me tell you this, even those thieves who can break other state capitals dare not come here!"

Xiao Tiantu was happy: "Why?"

"There's a heavy garrison here!" the husband said mysteriously, and Xiao Tiantu was even happier: "In the Gyeonggi region, it is natural to have heavy guards. But shopkeeper, you're a bit absolute. If this thief can break through other state capitals, this Kyoto will be occupied by them sooner or later.

"That can't be. The husband was absolutely unequivocal.

Xiao Tiantu shook his head and said, "You are a little stupid." ”

"I'm not stupid. The husband came over and seemed to be in the mood.

Xiao Tiantu raised his eyebrows, ready to listen.

The husband said: "You don't know, there are many masters in this Kyoto, and there are many secret agents." Don't underestimate the common people who come and go, come and go in and out of Kyoto all day, if you can't get it, they are all good hands in the general's palace. Not to mention the other 800 Golden Armor Guards, Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs, and Seventy-two Earth Demons, they were all prestigious nets of heaven and earth. The most important thing is that in the general's palace, there is a secret door, and that secret door leads to Saibei, which is sparsely populated, but there is a lot of land, and millions of elite soldiers are stationed. If it weren't for the fear that the Northern Barbarians would take advantage of the situation, these elite soldiers would have gone to clean up those thieves a long time ago. If it really comes to that moment, His Majesty will be furious and let these elite soldiers rush to the aid of Kyoto, I am afraid that when the time comes, everyone will be able to drown these rebels with a mouthful of saliva. “

Xiao Tiantu almost choked to death by this hot tea, and asked with a smile: "Then why didn't the general use these soldiers to quell the rebellion first and make it the current situation?"

The husband said, "You don't know that." The general wants to take power. “

"Collect power?" Xiao Tiantu frowned: "Where did you learn about it?"

The husband smiled and said, "I have a lot of people coming and going, and since the general sent troops to quell the rebellion, people have often drunk tea here and talked about these things. There are many explanations, but I still think this explanation of the right collection is more reasonable. This great general, I feel that the current power of the state capitals is too great, and it is not bad to use this war to weaken their power and uproot those government generals with different hearts. “

Xiao Tiantu's face changed slightly: "Then do you think the general's move is right or wrong." “

"Hey. The shopkeeper suddenly sighed: "If you want me to say, there is no right or wrong in this matter. If I were a great general, I would naturally do it. After all, to tell the truth, many of these state generals are the top leaders who have been entrenched in the local area for many years, and they say everything in the local area, and sometimes their words are more effective than this holy decree. If it were me, I'd be afraid. “

The shopkeeper said it truthfully, and Xiao Tiantu also nodded in approval along with his wishes.

The shopkeeper was interested, so he said: "But to be honest, no matter how big or small this war is, no matter where it starts, the common people will suffer. Not to mention what to do if you encounter a brutal general, even if you are able to support your family at that time, it will also become a luxury. So, there's no right or wrong in this, it's just a matter of choice. In the short term, it has suffered the common people, and in the long run, it has consolidated the rule of the dynasty, if this emperor can be in office for another twenty or thirty years, and then continue to implement benevolent government, then we will experience this little war, it is nothing. “

Xiao Tiantu was a little relieved after hearing this, he couldn't imagine that such an ordinary person would care so much about national affairs, and he could understand it.

Xiao Tiantu asked again, "Do you have any children?"

The shopkeeper's face suddenly turned ugly, and the proprietress turned her head.

Xiao Tiantu noticed that he had asked the wrong word, so he hurriedly said, "Forgive me." “

"Hey. The shopkeeper said: "Master Ke, I won't tell you, we used to have two sons, but then because of playfulness, we drowned in the river." My mother and I have been relieved for all these years, and we haven't recovered our strength. The two of us, now we are dependent on each other, guarding this small tea shop, taking a step, looking at a step. “

Xiao Tiantu frowned and asked, "You are old, do you have a way to live in peace?"

"I saved some money, I didn't dare to spend it, just prevent it. The shopkeeper was right, and Xiao Tiantu drank the tea silently.

After Xiao Tiantu left, when the store was cleaned up, he found two gold beads under the bowl and hurriedly chased them out, but unfortunately Xiao Tiantu had already left on horseback.
