Chapter 103

what?What a mistake... What made it even more difficult for him to tell was that as time passed, the two of them became more and more uncomfortable in the narrow space on the beam. Although Puchen tried his best to hold him to prevent him from getting dust, the cylindrical Fang Liang's pain made his thighs numb, on the other hand, the two men touched skin to skin, Pu Chen's breath was next to his ears, and the monk said "declaring adultery during the day", Wen Tao actually felt a little guilty. Come.As soon as he did this, his ears turned red first, and fine sweat oozes from his neck, and in Pu Chen's eyes, there are more than just the words "wishful".Pu Chen bit his lip, staring at the monk who was searching in the temple, silently counting down in his heart, if the two did not leave after counting fifty times, he planned to come down directly and beat them unconscious.

"I can't find it anywhere." The monk was a little frustrated, "Probably he heard our voice and ran away."

The elder monk clasped his hands together and sighed, "Amitabha."

At this moment, the rain outside gradually stopped, and the elderly monk said: "Since the rain has stopped, we shouldn't delay here any longer, it's time to go back."

"Hmph, I wasn't asked to find those two people." The younger monk seemed still unwilling.

"Since the people have left, their...clothes should be taken away. If they stay here, it will hurt the Bodhisattva's sage."

"Exactly!" The monk seemed to have finally found a way to punish the two of them. He packed up the clothes they threw on the ground, hung them on his bamboo staff, and said, "I'll burn them when I go back."

"Good, good..." The elder monk sighed a few more words, and the two left the temple one after the other.

After the two left, Pu Chen came down with Wen Tao in his arms, and kissed him before Wen Tao could speak.Not to mention being wronged just now, and being forced to stay on the dirty and narrow beam for more than half an hour, Wen Tao's face is red at the tips of his ears, and he is wearing obscene clothes. Pu Chen claims that he is not a saint. Regardless of whether this is a Buddhist temple or not, they directly undressed the few clothes left by the two of them.

"A Pu, here..." Wen Tao wanted to resist at the beginning, but Pu Chen said harshly: "Since I have taken on this disrespect to gods and Buddhas, and publicized the name of adultery all day long, I can't bear it in vain."

Wen Tao froze for a moment, and after that moment, he couldn't hold himself back at all.His hands tightly grasped Pu Chen's broad shoulders from behind, his gaze passed over Pu Chen, and happened to meet the angry face of Shangzuo Ming Buddha's mother, and the third eye on his forehead seemed to be staring at them closely.He felt a guilty conscience from the bottom of his heart.

Being the mother of Buddha aims to eliminate the greed and obsession of all living beings.In the past, when he left the Guangling Academy, he took the world as his own responsibility, killed the young man, purged the dark world, obeyed the Lord, and despised life and death.He never thought that one day he would also be trapped in greed and obsession, he hugged the person in his arms tightly, just as the person hugged him tightly.He felt the warmth and eagerness of Pu Chen, and he grabbed him, as if he had caught the self he had never faced before, the self who would be hesitant and vulnerable under his calm and reserved appearance.

It turns out that greed and obsession may not always be scourges as the Buddhist scriptures say, they are also honey in a desperate situation, the weakness of an indestructible person, and the real bond between people that is rare in this world .

After being hearty and hearty, Pu Chen stopped his movements, and the twilight was everywhere. Pu Chen raised his head and let out a deep breath.Wen Tao lay on Pu Chen's chest, and put a kiss on his lips.

97, 97.

During the lingering time, Pu Chen's eyes were slightly closed, and he let out an inaudible sigh.

Wen Tao stopped and said, "What's wrong?"

Pu Chen stroked Fu Wentao's back and said, "It's nothing."

Wen Tao glanced at his expression and said, "I see that you have been out of your wits these past few days, is there something wrong with His Majesty?"

Pu Chen squinted his eyes: "The soul is lost? Is it so obvious?"

Wen Tao chuckled: "Others can't see it, and I'm not stupid. Tell me, what happened?"

After a while, Pu Chen said quietly: "It's nothing, it's just that the Wuchang Army may not be able to keep it..."

"What happened?" Wen Tao suddenly woke up.

Pu Chen said: "Your Majesty, the five prefectures in the north of the Yangtze River, together with the Kyushu prefecture in the south, each prefecture will set up a standing army to control the local security, and the prefects of each prefecture will be under the unified jurisdiction."

"So, the prefectures no longer set up state herds?" Wen Tao heard the mystery. Since the government army is under the jurisdiction of the prefect, there is no need for state pastors to exist.

Pu Chen nodded: "Back then, the Seven Kings' Rebellion was caused by the fact that there were soldiers in the hands of state shepherds in various states, fighting against each other, colluding with aristocratic families in private, which caused this heinous disaster. Today's state herds, except for the states in my hands, almost all It’s nothing but fiction.”

"What about the Wuchang Army?" Wen Tao raised his eyes and stared at Pu Chen.

I don't know if Wen Tao's eyes were too direct, but Pu Chen found it difficult to look directly at them: "The Wuchang Army is well-trained and powerful. Your Majesty means that they will be organized as a frontier army, stationed at forts and border defenses, and under my unified jurisdiction."

"Your Majesty wants to dismantle the Wuchang Army?" Wen Tao said, "Which places will His Majesty plan to set up frontier troops? Or, how will the Wuchang Army be dismantled?"

Pu Chen sighed, sure enough he couldn't hide anything from him, and grasped the crux of the problem in a few words.He replied: "Your Majesty will leave this matter to me to decide. My current idea is to divide it into northeast, northwest, and southwest."

"To defend against Beiyan, Turks, and Tuyuhun?" Wen Tao thought for a while.These three are all Fanbang Khanates whose strength cannot be underestimated and are connected to the Jing Dynasty.

Pu Chen nodded, but fell silent.This was already the best result he had weighed in many ways. He didn't want to completely split the Wuchang Army into three parts. One division into three was probably the bottom line that Zhou Yu could accept.In these three places, except for Liangzhou in the northwest where the original Liangzhou army can still be used without much action, the northeast and southwest will have to make big moves.The border with Beiyan is Youzhou, which is a place of bitter cold, and Beiyan's strength has been greatly reduced in the past few years.Dividing the remaining Wuchang Army into these two places can be used as two powerful frontier armies of the Jing Dynasty.It's just that these two places are bitter, cold and barren. I don't know how many obstacles I have to go through to split up the Wuchang army and station them in Youzhou and Ningzhou.

"So, in this world, there is no Wuchang army anymore?" Wen Tao said.

Putting his hands on his head, Pu Chen lay on the hay.He closed his eyes, and the scene of his father holding him up and looking down at the mighty Wuchang Army when he was a child appeared in front of his eyes, and he felt that his eyes were a little stinging.The sky outside the window had gradually darkened, and the only light left shone on Pu Chen's face, his Adam's apple moved, but he didn't say anything after all.

Wen Tao held Pu Chen's hand, as if to comfort him: "Forget it, the prosperous age should not have power." He didn't say what happened next, he had already said it when they came to Luoyang Palace to rescue Zhou Yu a few years ago Yes, many things are different when you are a monarch and minister.Pu Chen only wanted to be a pure minister on the side of guarding the soil, but being a pure minister was never an easy task.In the past, this land was in Nanjing, and he guarded it in Wuchang. Now, this land is the entire Jing Dynasty, and he has to go to Youzhou, to Ningzhou, to be worthy of the word "responsibility of guarding the land".

Wen Tao stood up, as if eager to break the slightly solemn atmosphere, stretched his waist, and said to Pu Chen with a three-pointed smile: "Da Sima, don't think about these things for now, how about It matters how we go back now."

Pu Chen was awakened by the words, and glanced at Wen Tao and himself, who were only wearing crumpled and obscene clothes, and then remembered that the other clothes were taken back and burned by those two meddling monks. Several bends.If they went down the mountain like this and met a pedestrian again, they would be ashamed and ashamed, but if they didn't go down the mountain, who would know their current predicament?

Pu Chen said with a heart: "We will go down the mountain when there is no one in the middle of the night, and put the Wuqinglie horse back to Luoyang City. It knows the way, and then hangs a letter around the horse's neck and asks Tang Yu to deliver the clothes in person That's it."

Wen Tao reluctantly responded.

It was night, two handsome men in disheveled clothes were sneaking and hiding at the foot of Mount Shaoshi, guarding against the occasional passers-by.The rain had stopped, and the air was still very humid. They hid in the shadow of the trees and looked up at the completely dark sky.There is no moon today, only the sky full of stars, and there is a gentle wind in the woods.Wu Qingliema has been gone for more than an hour, and Tang Yu should come back with someone after calculating the time.Wen Tao sat leaning against the tree, and suddenly "cheated" and laughed for a while.

"Why?" Pu Chen raised his eyes.

Wen Tao waved his hand, but laughed even more happily.

Pu Chen stared at him with a sense of oppression.Wen Tao knew that if he didn't speak out, Pu Chen would not give up, so he teased: "What are you going to say when Tang Yu comes?"

"What do you say?" Pu Chen said, "Tell me the truth."

"It says that we are hiding on the beams of the house in obscene clothes, and are regarded as prostitution and disrespect for gods and Buddhas?"

Pu Chen was at a loss for words, paused for a while and said, "Just say that the clothes were accidentally lost."

"Hahahahaha." Wen Tao laughed again, "Why do we always encounter such things when we come out with you? A few years ago, we were chased and killed by Beiyan people, and we returned to Wuchang disheveled."

"It was you who left your clothes in the woods that time and attracted the people from Beiyan." Pu Chen retorted.

Wen Tao smiled shyly: "When we went back, Mr. Wei didn't believe our words."

Speaking of Mr. Wei, Pu Chen's smile suddenly subsided. He thought of Mr. Wei's stern face, and that time when they escaped from the mountains, Mr. Wei questioned for a long time with his beard and staring eyes, and the battle of Beiyan. The figure falling from the city wall... In the blink of an eye, it has been six years since Mr. Wei passed away.

"Wen Tao." It was rare for Pu Chen to call him by his full name.
