Tang's dining table

Yun Chu led his troops to Hanjiacang City in the north of Luoyang City. As he expected, Xu Jingzong politely invited Yun Chu to garrison outside the city.

Yun Chu naturally refused, and took out the emperor's edict and the military talisman to declare that he was the commander of Hanjiacang City. Unfortunately, Xu Jingzong also took out the edict.

After mutual verification, no one had the intention to go to the emperor and ask why there were two edicts with equal power, and why there was no statement in the edict sent to Yun Chu to take back Xu Jingzong's power.

After Yunchu and Xu Jingzong talked across a city wall, they felt that this arrangement was good. One was guarding Cangcheng and the other was stationed outside the city to suppress them. It was also a good thing to help each other.

Just like Li Hong said, if Yunchu entered Cangcheng, it would be a headache just to deal with the wormy subordinates in the granary.

However, this matter is not a big deal when it comes to Xu Jingzong, an old official. The old guy has been shady all his life. Speaking of which, the people in the granary are still too immature in front of him.

Similarly, most of Yunchu's reputation came from the army. There is a lot of evidence to prove that he is brave enough to be worthy of his reputation. Now, he brought two thousand cavalry to the city of Hanjiacang. Unless there is someone The army comes to besiege, otherwise, there is no possibility of failure.

The scenery in the north of Luoyang is excellent. Mang Mountain winds eastward and shows the most beautiful side to Luoyang City in the north.

Looking at the lush Mang Mountain from afar, Xu Jingzong had the idea of ​​​​dying in Mang Mountain and finally being buried in Mang Mountain.

The reason why he had such an idea was entirely because he ate the food that Yunchu brought.

There is no problem with the meals prepared by the Yun family, whether it is crispy pancakes, chewy noodles, or roomy cured mutton, cured beef, braised eggs, braised chicken, braised pork, and braised fish. , are all temporary choices.

Even Yun Chu didn't expect that Xu Jingzong couldn't eat spicy food. In fact, he couldn't eat spicy food at all.

Nowadays, chili pepper has become an indispensable delicacy for the people of Chang'an City, three meals a day. However, when Xu Jingzong came here, after taking a bite of the cured beef pancakes rolled with oily spicy seeds, his originally plump lips became flaky with the naked eye. The visible speed swelled until it turned into two fat sausages.

"This person should know what he can and cannot do. Look, I know that I may not be able to tolerate such a good thing as pepper. But in the end, I still can't help but eat it. If you eat it, you have to bear it. as a result of.

Marquis Yun, why do you think this is so difficult? "

Yun Chu looked at the sausage hidden in Xu Jingzong's thick beard and said, "You know you can't eat peppers, but you still eat them deliberately just to illustrate this point. Xu Gong's attitude towards learning is really embarrassing to the younger generation."

Xu Jingzong shook his head and said: "Marquis Yun has a courage that is unworthy of ten thousand men. Even though thousands of troops are nothing in Marquis Yun's eyes, I am different. I have been an official for many years and have done a lot of things that people don't like." , Therefore, it is normal for the men around you to be more aggressive.

Whether it's Marquis Yun's unparalleled courage or my useful sons and daughters, there is no reason for Your Majesty to suspect that we are involved with the thief.

Nowadays, a storm is coming in Chang'an City, and dark clouds are gathering in Luoyang City. But you and I are trapped in Hanjiacang City. Doesn't Marquis Yun feel aggrieved? "

Yun Chu smiled and said: "What Mr. Xu said couldn't be more reasonable. However, your orders cannot be violated. Not to mention that you are here to guard Hanjiacang City. Even if Your Majesty orders us to guard the latrines, Yun will be happy to do so."

Xu Jingzong took a sip of rice soup to moisten his swollen lips and looked at Yun Chu: "Is it possible for a prince to say flattering words?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "There is no way. As a minister, if you say a few more words that His Majesty is willing to hear and do two more things that His Majesty is willing to see, there will always be only advantages and no disadvantages."

Xu Jingzong sighed and said: "Oh, Lord, if you had been born a few years earlier, there would have been room for me and others to stand in court."

Yun Chu raised a wind chicken leg and took a bite of it and said, "Because there are famous ministers like Mr. Xu in front of us, I will naturally follow the footsteps and not dare to make mistakes."

Xu Jingzong saw that Yun Chu had been talking about chariots and wheels. He tried to guide the topic to the right path several times, but Yun Chu dismissed him every time as if nothing had happened.

It was obvious that Yun Chu was unwilling to talk to him, let alone tell the truth to him. As for working together to do things, Yun Chu had no idea at all. After all, who was close to Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong? Just cheat anyone.

Standing in the court of the Tang Dynasty, it seems to be a harmonious whole. However, it is difficult to say who is the enemy, who is the friend, and even who is the ghost. What if he is killed by a needle hidden in someone's body? That would be too unfair.

Yunchu even suspected that the reason why Li Zhi brought him to Hanjiacang City was because Xu Jingzong was here as a trap. He seemed to really hope to see himself unite with Xu Jingzong and Li Yifu.

In the end, it turned into a powerful black glove from Li Zhi.

Having no ambitions is Yun Chu's current personality. He only wants to do a good job in Chang'an, which is Yun Chu's ultimate personal requirement. He was not attracted by Li Ji's group in the past, and now, naturally, he cannot be attracted by Xu Jingzong.

If you reject one party and agree to the other, it is easy for people to suspect that Yunchu's purpose of occupying Chang'an is to wait for a price.

Ultimately questioning his character.

When Xu Jingzong left, he looked very regretful. Although the sausage mouth made his expression look more funny, Yun Chu did not dare to be careless in the slightest. God knows if there was a knife hidden behind the sausage mouth.

"I wish I could be buried in this blessed place of Beimang Mountain."

The elderly Xu Jingzong, coupled with this sentence that seems to be explaining the funeral affairs, and the red sun in Luoyang, can easily create a feeling of being at the end of the world.

He didn't believe a word of what Yun Chu said to Xu Jingzong. Even the "Book of Jin" compiled by him, Yun Chu was also doubtful. It was one thing for this guy to be highly knowledgeable, but whether he could write a good book was another. Something else.

If Xu Jingzong wanted to die, Yun Chu thought there was a way. The crooked-necked willow tree more than ten feet away would be a good place to hang himself. The willow branches above were as tall as a canopy, and the grass below was lush and green. If there were still trees in the middle, Hanging a world-famous old thief, this picture couldn't be more harmonious.

Xiao Siye was the deputy general assigned to Yunchu by Li Hong. Because they were not familiar with him, there were many things he couldn't say to him.

However, Xiao Siye is still a very capable person, and the four thousand princes and six troops that Li Hong managed so hard have been basically trained by him.

Whether it is arranging to go out for patrol or placing it for defense under the city, it is all done in a stylish way.

Di Renjie was busy all day and had no time to come to see Yun Chu. Wen Wenwen was in his residence next to the White Horse Temple, taking care of the three families, and he had no time to come to see Yun Chu.

As for Master Xuanzang, seeing that Naha was in a bad mood, he decided to take her back to his hometown of the Chen family in Phoenix Valley, Yanshi. Xuanzang’s family had long since disappeared without a trace. Although he knew that his brother was a monk in the Pure Land Temple in Luoyang, Xuanzang But he had no intention of visiting. After all, once he became a monk, he no longer had a home.

His home became a temple, named Tang Monk Temple.

Regardless of the fact that 1,126 people died in Luoyang City in one day, the imperial capital city is the imperial capital city. After so many people died at one time, peace was restored immediately after a few days.

It's just that the wealthy families in the city don't like to stay in the city, so they drag their families to the countryside to work as farmers.

There are also some wealthy people who went far away into the mountains to become hermits. One of them, Yang Jiong, wrote a very good farewell poem at the age of twelve.

The reason why he is said to be twelve years old is entirely because he passed the Jinshi examination at the age of eleven. Everyone said that this guy is talented and might become the prime minister at the age of thirteen. Xu Jingzong is still shameless. It is said that a young man in the human world can be the prime minister. If he is the prime minister himself, doesn't he also become an old boy?

I have read the farewell poem written by Yang Jiong for the first time, and it is considered a good poem.

The Qilu is separated in three autumns, and Jiangjin is thousands of miles long.

The haze stands on the cover, and the strings play to promote the flying wine.

The trees on the steps contain the slanting sun, and the wind in the pond is cool early.

Before the gift was finished, my tears suddenly stained my clothes.

The whole poem is quite satisfactory, not as good as "Weicheng Song" and "Bie Di Da" written by him.

This poem was brought by Li Hong. He wanted to summon Yang Jiong to the East Palace to be his attendant. Last time, Li Xian hired a child prodigy named Wang Bo as his attendant, which made him unconvinced for a long time.

"This kind of talent should be sent to the Western Regions for training, instead of being kept by your side as a pet.

If you want talents, go to the east and west cities and the Qujiangfang Trading Ground. The people there will be useful to you.

Find one or two people who are economical and you will be able to benefit from them throughout your life, and you will not be deceived by others. "

Li Hong lay on Yunchu's camp bed, raised his feet higher than his head, took a bite of apricots, and felt sour, so he spit out the sour water and said to Yunchu: "Master, I found a few, but each one The deer-headed and rat-like eyes make me have the urge to chop them to death."

Yun Chu sneered and said: "With them, the expenses of your East Palace will be much more relaxed, and will the income from selling vegetables and seeds also be higher?

Talents, talents, are people who are used to do work for us. It doesn’t matter what they look like, as long as they are useful. "

Li Hongdao: "My mother laughed at me for recruiting a group of monsters and ghosts."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "It seems that His Majesty's illness has recovered?"

Li Hong shook his head and said, "I don't know. Anyway, I've seen him twice during this period. Both times, he made people feel good. He looked radiant."

Yunchu sighed and said: "Your Majesty is in good health, it is our turn to live a hard life. Now I can't wait to return to Chang'an immediately."

Li Hong shook his head and said: "I can't go back. I heard from my father that the local soldiers in Luozhou are admonished and the selection is left to you, master."

Yun Chu lamented in his heart. Li Zhi was already shameless. The last time he couldn't coax him, he just took advantage of the situation. Regardless of Yun Chu's will or not, the Luozhou soldiers' training and selection work, in the end, It still fell on him.

After Yunchu guarded Hanjiacang City for six days, Luoyang Sili Xiaowei brought five thousand soldiers.

He was ordered by the emperor to send these five thousand soldiers from the Sili Mansion to put Yun Chu under control.

Yun Chu had seen it, and found that these five thousand people were like five thousand walking corpses. The rebellion of the Luoyang soldiers had been confirmed, and the future of these people had been bleak for a long time.

If someone instigates or intimidates a little, it will immediately become a mutiny.
