Tang Xuan

Hexi Jiedu envoy Yang Jisheng was stabbed to death in Dunhuang City Lord's Mansion.The former Hexi Camp soldiers who had just arrived in Dunhuang were leaderless and showed signs of being ruffians.

The letter is a secret letter, only Lang Huai and Ming Da read it together, and have not told others.

Seeing her eyebrows tightened, with hesitation all over her face, Mingda couldn't help but said softly: "Ah Huai, there's nothing I can do about it. Neither you nor Sixth Brother can leave. Since Sixth Brother is the governor, he has to meet Gucheng. Can."

"You know, I have to go." Mingda tilted his head, saw that she was still silent, and said: "Go and pick up Sol, and then come to Yangguan to meet me. I will meet you at Yangguan, and then How about we go home together?"

"This..." Lang Huai simply said what he was most worried about, "I don't understand why Lord Yang was assassinated. This matter does not make sense."

"Now there is only this news, we don't know anything else. Don't worry about guessing." Mingda leaned over, leaned into her arms, and said, "No matter what, the soldiers can't be chaotic at this time. I'll hurry up and go, I'm afraid it will take more than ten days. Presumably, with my identity, those veterans can suppress it. But the specific case can only be found out after I go."

"Let little Tao Lanjun follow you." Lang Huai knew that there was no other way, so he could only ruthlessly say, "What this case wants is a result. As for the court compensation, we don't need to worry about it. There is only one thing, Jiedu You can't leak a word about the candidate for the envoy. Hexi is too important, and I'm afraid it can only be decided after a court discussion, and it's up to you and me to comment."

"I understand."

The two fingers intertwined, and they didn't speak for a long time.Mingda felt the warmth from her palm, and suddenly smiled and said, "Ah Huai, I'm going to meet you in red, what do you think?"

Just this sentence calmed Lang Huai who was full of anxiety.She hugged her sweetheart tightly in her arms, pressed her chin against Mingda's forehead, and sighed: "Of course it's good, no one looks better in red than you."

The two discussed it properly, Lang Huai ordered Tao Jun to prepare, sent five hundred soldiers to guard him, and ordered Tao Junlan to serve carefully along the way, and only after a long talk, did he give up.

The army was still marching towards Khotan, only a small group was separated and headed east.Lang Huai Li Jin beat his horse and sent him ten miles away before returning to the camp reluctantly.

"Fortunately, this matter is over, and there will be no more separation. Don't worry about it, I'm upset." Li Jin's upper body swayed forward with the horse, with the newly raised falcon on his broad shoulders.Seeing that Lang Huai was silent, he threatened her: "If this is still the case, I will let Brother Dong go and chase that wicked fox of your family!"

"Don't worry, Captain Huai knows Brother Dong. He goes up and down every day, and cooperates with catching rabbits." Lang Huai did not turn his head, and suddenly accelerated, saying: "Your Highness, how about a run?"

"Don't you dare to accompany me?" Li Jin clenched the reins tightly, and the two of them ran wildly on the desolate land like arrows flying off the string.

In a few days, the army arrived in Khotan.Zhenfu envoy Wang Xiong led an army to greet him outside the city, and at the same time informed Lang Huai of the arrival of the Tubo envoy the day before yesterday.

Wang Xiong looked around and said in a low voice: "Mu Gong, Princess Gucheng has been wandering around the city for two days, I'm afraid she has other plans."

"If she didn't plan, it wouldn't be Gucheng." Lang Huai nodded slightly, and said: "Everything is done according to the regulations of the Qin Tianjian of the Ministry of Rites. These days, I have worked hard."

Wang Xiong didn't dare, looked at the team, and asked in doubt: "Mu Gong, why don't you see General Yuchi?"

Lang Huai replied casually: "The Northeast is restless, and the Koreans have made changes. Yuchi asked for a fight, and has been ordered to go to the Northeast. I'm afraid he won't come back."

It's not a day or two for Korean people to look for trouble when they have nothing to do. Wang Xiong only thought that the Yuchi family was cultivating the next generation, so he didn't think much about it.

On the second day, according to the regulations, Lang Huai and Gu Cheng solemnly signed the letter of credence and pressed the seal in the flower hall of the newly built city lord's mansion.Afterwards, the banquet was just a rigid one, and everything was arranged.

During the banquet, Lang Huai finally saw the little boy dressed in pink and jade, the only blood of the Tubo royal family, King Sol of Puguang.This child has dark eyes like Cong Canglan's coral eagle, but his face shape and pretty bridge of nose are not like his mother's.The little guy who is only three or four years old speaks well.It seems that Gucheng didn't take much trouble to teach.

Gu Cheng held his son's hand, and said to Lang Huai who was at the table: "Sol, from now on, I will follow Mu Gong to Chang'an, so that I can study and gain knowledge. Can you write it down?"

Saul was ignorant, and raised his eyes to look at Lang Huai who was opposite. This young man had a handsome face, full of heroism, but gentle brows.Sol frowned, and said, "Is that Sol's teacher?" He spoke Chinese fluently, and immediately won the favor of the Tang officials present.

Lang Huai slowly slowed down his tone, and said softly: "No, I am not His Highness's teacher, but I am taking you to Chang'an to learn from my teacher."

"Then what can I learn?"

"Hundreds of schools, all walks of life, whatever Your Highness likes, I am willing to visit famous teachers for Your Highness." Lang Huai really couldn't bear to hate this child, not to mention that his appearance was three points similar to Ming Tang Ming Li , she loves it even more.

Sol looked up at his mother with his little head up, and said, "Mother, Sol has gone, and when he finishes his studies, he will come back to accompany you."

Tong Yan Wuji, it is obvious that Sol already knows that he is the only one who has traveled thousands of miles to Chang'an.Gu Cheng's eyes were slightly red, he nodded his nose, and said something in a low voice.

Only then did Lang Huai notice that Gucheng was still dressed in a Tang costume, with pear blossom makeup on his forehead.Counting the time, she stayed away from Chang'an for several years.

With no relatives around her, maybe she can do everything she can to work hard for her ambition.Perhaps in a few decades, Tubo can become a country that can truly stand shoulder to shoulder with the Tang Dynasty.

However, after all, he can return home.

During the day, they feasted for half a day, and it was not until the evening that the game was over.

After Lang Huai hadn't had a few drinks, she went back to her residence, sat down on the bench, and asked Mr. Zhu to take off her boots and coat for her.

"Master, what are you going to do when you get back to Chang'an?" Mr. Zhu didn't know what to think of, and said in a low voice: "That little girl of Lan Jun, monk Yan doesn't know when he will fall in love. I'm afraid that when he arrives in Dunhuang, he will beg for her. The Lord is in charge of her."

Lang Huaiben rested on the cushion with his eyes closed. Hearing this, he couldn't help but open his eyes, and said with a smile, "Of course I have to decide for her. When will the two of them start? But I haven't seen the slightest clue."

"If I hadn't bumped into her by accident, I wouldn't have noticed it." Lan Jun picked up a soft cloth to wipe off the water for her, put on her socks again, put on her shoes, and asked, "Master, I'm going to serve a bowl of soup cakes." ?”

"That's right." Lang Huai lifted his feet and half-lyed on the low bed, and said again: "Drink three bowls, and there will be guests later."

Mr. Zhu responded crisply, picked up the foot basin and left.

Lang Huai picked up the time, neither early nor late, just after Xu time, there were a few people walking at the door.

Shang Yan stopped at the door and said in a low voice, "Master, the distinguished guest has arrived."

Lang Huai woke up instantly from his doze, sat upright and said, "Come in, please."

Gu Cheng wore a cloak of white glaze, and walked in with a cold wind.She took off her hood, showing her beautiful face, turned her head to find Lang Huai's voice, and said with a smile, "I know you can guess that I'm coming."

"Since we know each other well, please sit down, Your Highness." Lang Huai waved his hand, pointed to the other side of Autao, and said, "I have been waiting here for a long time."

While talking, Mr. Zhu came in with a tray, put three bowls of soup cakes on the table, and left after a slight salute, with Monk Yan guarding the door.

"Your Highness, please. People in Chang'an are used to it, so I, a Chang'an native, will accompany you." Lang Huai pushed two bowls and said with a smile: "I can't afford jade plate delicacies, and two bowls of soup cakes, please enjoy yourself."

Gucheng didn't refuse, and quickly opened his wide sleeves, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.The soup cakes were strong, and the hot and sour soup tasted so strong that Gucheng's tears overflowed a lot.But Herod finished the noodles and drank half of the soup.

After eating two bowls of soup cakes, Gu Cheng pulled the cloak and wiped his mouth casually, only then saw that Lang Huai had already finished eating and was staring at her without blinking.

"I was thinking, if His Highness knew what he wanted in the first half of the year, would there be another Shangguan and prime minister in my Tang Dynasty?" Lang Huai suddenly said, "Or, another empress."

Gucheng quickly calmed down from his homesickness, and said with a smile: "You can't go back to the past. Mr. Mu, you are stuck."

Lang Huai laughed and said, "Your Highness speaks out, I admire it." She straightened her face and said, "You can rest assured that I will do my best to take good care of Sol. When he turns 15 years old, he will stay with you." Promise to send it back." Gucheng also gathered the relaxed and freehand brushwork just now, and said: "Sol, just like you and me, we are both women."

Although he knew that Gucheng knew that he was a woman, but this sentence was like a shock, and Lang Huai also spilled tea on the lapel in embarrassment.Sol turned out to be a woman?How can Gucheng hide Cong Canglanhu?

"The Saul that Cong Canglanhu saw was just a substitute that I found in advance. I hate him so much, it is enough to give birth to one, and there is no room for a second one." Some, I have no intention of asking him to come back alive. The child is innocent, so I will naturally take Sol back."

Only then did Lang Huai finally understand why Gucheng took such a big hand on her, but didn't mention any conditions from the beginning to the end.She frowned and said, "Is Sol clear?"

"That child is sensible, and it makes me feel bad." Gucheng sat up and poured tea, and said: "There are many great scholars in the Tang Dynasty, and Sol can only really succeed in his studies if he goes to Chang'an. In this way, I can hand over Tubo to her with confidence. "Lang Huai clasped his fingers slightly on the case, and said: "Your Highness has such ambitions, but it is not comparable to Lang Huai. Huai is like this, but you are forced. Your Highness, if Tubo is strong in the future, what do you want?"

"You still don't know, India has been eyeing it?" Gu Cheng roughly outlined the position on the spare case with tea, and said: "They have repeatedly crossed the sky to provoke Tubo, and they also have plans for the Western Regions."

Lang Huai frowned. All her impressions of this strange country came from listening to Master Wushi read "Da Tang Western Regions" when she was a child.Why is such a Buddhist country also warlike?

Gucheng said in a low voice: "Now the king of India, Xiongcai, is in his prime. If I really want to use troops against the Tibetans, I will devote all my energy to it, but it will be in vain."

Lang Huai opened his mouth slowly, and said: "I will investigate this matter. If it is as His Highness said, Datang will not stand idly by."

Gucheng showed a little joy, offered the tea bucket, and said, "That's it, my palace Xie Mugong."

Lang Huai took the tea bucket and replaced the wine with tea in Gucheng. After drinking it all, he said, "Your Highness, the bones and grass of the four kings were collected and buried in a beautiful place. Your Majesty's secret decree must not be leaked to the outside, lest the courtiers complain. But I I thought I shouldn't hide it from you."

Speaking of Li Qianlai who passed away for several years, Gucheng finally showed a look of longing, and said with a sense of wistfulness: "Actually, my brother has no choice. When I grow up, I can't help myself."

"You and Mingda must be in love with each other." Gu Cheng turned his eyes to Lang Huai's face and said, "If you and I have known each other since childhood, would you be tempted by me?"

Lang Huai laughed out loud, and replied with what she had said just now: "Your Highness, the past cannot be pursued, so there is no need to stick to the past."

Gu Cheng was stunned, looked at the opposite person through the candlelight, and suddenly said: "It is true that I am confused, the past cannot be traced."
