Datang Fenghua Road

"Pass your majesty's decree to urgently recruit the army of King Zhao of Xifu to return to Beijing, and they must arrive in Chang'an within half a month, and there shall be no delay..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hong Ling hurriedly rolled over and fell to the ground, and fell asleep on the grass.

He was so tired.

Running from the grassland to Chang'an to report victory, and then galloping back from Chang'an, he traveled 20 miles in just [-] days. After running [-] miles a day, more than a dozen fast horses were exhausted.

Chapter 376 What are you going to do about the family business?

"Could it be that something important happened in the imperial court?" Li Ji and the others looked at each other, and Lao Cheng stepped forward quickly, leaned over Hong Ling to test the tip of his nose, frowned and said: "The breath is weak, the bones are skinny, this is still tired or hungry ?”

Li Ji stepped out of the crowd, possessed his body and opened the eyelids of the red ling rushing to take a look, and exhaled: "Fortunately, he can be saved, this kid fell off the horse and went straight to sleep, I'm afraid he hasn't closed his eyes for four or five days. , I can't be so sleepy..."

Footsteps sounded behind him, and a group of dukes gathered around. Chai Shao frowned and said, "I know this little soldier. He is the Hongling envoy sent to Chang'an not long ago to report the victory. He drove back and forth in 20 days. There is something important happening in China, otherwise His Majesty would not rush to call the army back to Beijing."

"It is urgent to recruit King Zhao of Xifu to return to Beijing, not to urgently recruit an army to return to Beijing!" Lao Cheng added, his eyes flashing: "The recruitment of the army back is just an incidental, the person His Majesty is eager to see is King Zhao of Xifu..."

Li Ji pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Where is King Zhao now? Hong Ling has traveled a long distance from Chang'an to the grassland. His Majesty would rather use people to pass letters than birds. Major events must be told through the mouth of this soldier."

Although flying and passing letters is fast, writing letters can only be a few words, which is not as clear as using human beings.

Lao Cheng looked back at the camp and said with emotion: "Recently, the army has searched and rescued more than [-] Han women. Today, they are preparing to escort Chang'an, but all the little girls are crying. King Zhao asked for a guarantee..."

The princes of the kingdom were all startled, and Chai Shao said with a strange expression: "This doll is really an anomaly, he personally sees off every batch of Chinese women who set off, patted his chest and promised to give them food and clothing, patted his chest to give them men, patted his chest to give them men, Breasts to give them children."

He touched his nose suddenly, and said with a deep meaning: "There are a million Chinese women, and even His Majesty can't guarantee placement, but this kid is stunned and agrees to all, hehe, some Han girls won't be able to marry in the future. , I see how he ends up, can't he go into battle and give birth to children for those girls?"

Everyone laughed badly, Li Ji pointed at Chai Shao's nose and reprimanded: "You are an uncle, how can you joke about the juniors."

He was a commander in the army, and his status was detached. Even Chai Shao, the first consort of the Tang Dynasty, dared to rebuke him.

Old Cheng suddenly laughed, and said with a smirk: "Chai Shao is right, the doll will make a promise to the Han girl every now and then, if there are girls who can't get married in the future, then he will have to send the children to others. Tsk tsk tsk, isn't the empress wanting to hold grandchildren all day long? Now, she will have 10,000+ grandchildren to hold. Ahahaha, every time I think of that scene, I feel that this is the greatest masterpiece in history!"

"Ridiculous, nonsense!" Li Ji reprimanded Lao Cheng together this time, and said with an angry smile: "There are a whole million Han women, even if one tenth of them cannot get married, there will be 10 people. Son, then he will not do anything in his next life, just lie in bed and breed all day long."

Old Cheng laughed, and all the princes couldn't help laughing. This was a joke, but they were envious.But seeing the envy of a young general next to him, he said with a longing: "If I can have a woman like King Zhao of the West Mansion, and lie in bed every day waiting for breeding, I think this kind of life can barely make do..."

"Fuck your grandma!" Niu Jinda kicked the young general over with a kick, and scolded: "You don't even look at your own virtues, if you want to learn from the wife of King Zhao of the Western Palace, you will be cast in your next life. Be more beautiful!"

The young general got up from the ground, patted the soil on his body, inspected himself up and down, and said aggrieved: "Dad, why do you beat people, I think I look good, and I should be between King Zhao and Liu Heishi of the West Palace. between."

Niu Jinda was stunned for a moment, but Duke Zhongguo burst into laughter.

Li Ji sneered for a long time, but finally couldn't bear it anymore, pointed at the young man and said, "Niu's nephew is so funny, he even said that his appearance is between King Zhao of the Western Mansion and Liu Heishi, you are obviously as dark and bright as Liu Heishi, okay? If Liu Heishi is black charcoal that has just been dug out, nephew, you are black bottom just out of the pot, and your skin color is about the same."

Niu Jinda jumped up and tried to beat someone, but Lao Cheng next to him pinched his chin and said, "In the past, there were three shameless people in the Tang Dynasty, Liu Hongji was born shameless, the old man pretended to be shameless, and Li Xiaogong, the king of Hejian County, was a combination of both. , He was born shameless and forced to pretend to be shameless. The three of us are shameless elites of the older generation, and the world has never heard of our name. We originally thought that the younger generation would be cut off, but unexpectedly, there will be talents in the country."

He glanced at Niu Jinda, laughed and said, "Old Niu, your son is thick-skinned and barely has my demeanor. Ahahaha, I must congratulate Mrs.-in-law when I meet her, the baby she gave birth to is very good. Yes, in the future, I am afraid that your achievements will surpass you, Lao Niu..."

Niu Jinda's face darkened, he always felt that Cheng Yaojin's words were taking advantage of himself, he gritted his teeth and doubted, and there was a provocative prince next to him whispered: "No doubt, he is taking advantage of you, what is it? How much does your son have his style? You have to go to Mrs.-in-law to congratulate you, this guy is obviously taking advantage of your daughter-in-law!"

Lao Niu raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly, "Cheng Pifu, I killed you!"

Lao Cheng raised his feet and ran, laughing as he ran: "Don't be angry, old cow, brother-in-law can joke with sister-in-law, even if this matter is brought to court, His Majesty will not punish me..."

Just after he said this, Li Ji slapped his thigh suddenly and said softly, "Oops, I've been watching you guys frolic, and I almost forgot about the business!"

The British Duke of the Tang Dynasty suddenly bent down and hurriedly picked up the sleepy Hong Ling, his eyes rumbling: "This old man will send this soldier to the camp for treatment first, and then go to the West Palace to discuss matters with King Zhao, everyone. Don't be idle, robes, hurry up and gather up all the ministries under your command..."

He slowly swept away the crowd and said solemnly, "I estimate that the camp will have to be pulled out urgently tonight. Your Majesty asked to rush back to Chang'an within half a month. We have to walk two hundred miles every day. This is a continuous and urgent march..."

The princes of the kingdoms nodded again and again, but Li Ji said that, he really had to prepare quickly.

Old Cheng said with bright eyes: "I haven't handed over the errand yet. The black armored cavalry is still in my hands. I will be the pioneer officer and escort the Turkic prisoners of war on the road..."

Prisoners of war and captives are two different things. The captives are the slaves captured from the grasslands after the war, while the prisoners of war are the generals and nobles of the Turks, and even Jieli Khan is among them.

Li Jing next to him suddenly said: "The matter of the prisoners of war is no small matter. The old man will also go on the road with you, escorted by 30 troops. We must ensure that there is nothing wrong on the way, so that we can present the prisoners to His Majesty in Chang'an!"

Presenting captives is the best way to demonstrate national strength, and it is also the best way to demonstrate military achievements. All the princes of the state attach great importance to it. Niu Jinda and Chai Shao looked at each other. , the East Turks were pacified in the First World War, and there would be no more troubles within 500 years. Without the coordination of the various ministries by the King Zhao of the Western Mansion, we would never have achieved such a result. The old man thinks that you can escort the prisoners, but you must let the King Zhao of the Western Mansion offer the prisoners. Don't compete for credit, everyone."

Li Jing laughed, pointed at Niu Jinda and said, "You are telling this old man! Jinda rest assured, I am not a short-sighted person. Although I am not from the same faction as everyone, I will not be that stupid. I will definitely not contend for this time as a prisoner..."

"What about the struggle?" A voice suddenly sounded in the distance, Han Yue walked quickly all the way, and smiled lightly: "It has been said since ancient times that generals succeed in a hundred battles, and soldiers are buried in desolation, no matter who of us comes forward to offer prisoners, as long as we don't forget The soldiers below are fine, Duke Wei is also my Tang army god, I believe that you will not put the credit into your own pocket."

Li Jing was slightly stunned, suddenly looked up to the sky and let out a loud laugh, and said solemnly: "Xifu King Zhao has a broad heart, and the old man admires it very much, but it is best for you to come forward with this matter of dedicating prisoners. I will be rewarded with more military merit."

The princes of the kingdoms nodded again and again, and said in unison: "Li Yaoshi's words are right, the matter of the sacrifice of prisoners is up to the prince, and he will definitely be able to get more credit."

Han Yue came all the way, his eyes swept across the faces of everyone, and suddenly said: "We will wait until Chang'an to discuss this matter. The most important thing for us now is to pull out the camp immediately, and we must not delay for a moment..."

Everyone was stunned, Lao Cheng's eyes flickered a few times, and he whispered tentatively: "Could it be that there is really something important in the court?"

Han Yue looked at the south and said solemnly: "Uncle Cheng is right, I have just asked the Hongling emergency envoy carefully, only to know that His Majesty is in a very bad situation now. The head of the clan, Wang Gui, launched an attack in court, using the pretext of the empress's mother, Sichen, to induce [-]% of the important officials of the court to take off their official hats, and I am afraid that the same will be true for all states and prefectures in the world!"

hiss--

Everyone gasped!

Old Cheng gritted his teeth and scolded: "These people who knocked on the bones and sucked the marrow have been feeding unfamiliar white-eyed wolves since ancient times. My Cheng family is also a wealthy family in Shandong, but they will not force the palace for profit. His grandmother's, this time I went back and cut them off. Nope."

Suddenly there was the sound of horseshoes in the distance, Yu Wencheng rode a horse and carried a phoenix wing to gilt it, and said with serious eyes: "The old man once promised Li Shimin that if the aristocratic family disturbs, I will help him kill a batch of them. Less than a month after he went out, Li Shimin was forced into the palace, hahaha, could it be that my name as General Tianbao has disappeared, and the members of the aristocratic family are strong..."

There was a murderous intent in his eyes, and it was obvious that he wanted to go back and kill.

Han Yue let out a breath slowly and sighed softly: "This time, the swordsmen can be eliminated, or else Your Majesty will control the world's soldiers and horses, and he won't need to urgently call us back to Beijing."

Everyone nodded secretly, but Chai Shao suddenly came out of the crowd and said solemnly, "What are you going to do, baby?"

Han Yue snorted and said with deep meaning: "What else can we do, Your Majesty is urgent to call back to Beijing, of course we have to go on the road quickly, but don't forget the wealth before leaving, let the soldiers bring slaves, bring wool, and then Bring the Han girl, let's go home now..."

It seems that these words have nothing to do with the family, and everyone is puzzled!

Chapter 377 The poisonous plan of the family, the slander of Han Yue is fake

Datang Chang'an, the majestic imperial capital!

Suzaku Street is still prosperous, with a lot of traffic and pedestrians and vendors.Zhuque Street is very lively, but the Dali Temple standing on the bank of Zhuque Street is even more lively.

Ever since Wang Gui of the Wang family in Taiyuan joined the Heavenly Prison, it seemed that he had led a wave of voluntary resignation. While spreading the word of his own officials, they sent carriages to send people off to Dali Temple. Every day, the Heavenly Prison Received many court officials.

Faced with this situation, Dali Temple Minister Pei Ju also had a headache. The old man went to the palace several times to report the matter, but Li Shimin just smiled coldly and said indifferently: "Pei Qing's family need not be impatient. The world is in my hands. For the time being They can't turn the sky. Don't these people want to enter Dali Temple? You can let them in, open the dungeons, and let the officials of the aristocratic family take the initiative to join..."

When the emperor was talking, he didn't seem to press his anger in his heart, as if he wasn't angry at all.

Pei Ju left the palace in a daze, the old man thought about it, and then entered the Tianjing to find Wang Gui.

At this time, the prison was overcrowded, with seven or eight courtiers imprisoned in every cell. It was not appropriate to say that they were imprisoned, because the cell door was not locked, and Pei Ju hoped that the courtiers would get out of the way quickly.
