The sea breeze blew in his face, blowing Hou Yi's long hair flying, caressing his fiancée's handsome face, and said softly: "Chang'e, don't worry, I will go to the Central Plains this time, it will be half a year at the latest, and it will be a month at the latest, and when I shoot Xue Rengui, Tai Shici and others, I will return to the Tang Dynasty to marry you."
Seeing that Hou Yi said so decisively, Chang'e could only bow her head slightly: "Brother Yi, I know that your greatest wish is to be the number one shooter in the world, since you have made up your mind, Chang'e will no longer stop you."
But please promise me that I will return safe and sound."
Li Longji, who was next to him, stepped forward with a smile and said: "Si Zhuangshi, please rest assured, after you leave, the clothing, food, housing and transportation of Miss Ji's family will be taken care of by the imperial court.
"Thank you, Lord Wang" Hou Yi hugged his wrist to Li Longji to thank him.
Women are sensitive, Chang'e quietly glanced at Li Longji, and saw that although this prince was born in the jade tree and looked dignified, there was a subtle frivolity in his eyebrows, and he bowed slightly at the moment: "Thank you for your trouble, but we don't lack food and clothing on Taibai Mountain, so we don't dare to disturb the court." ” Seeing Chang'e open her mouth to talk to herself, Li Longji couldn't help but be overjoyed, and returned the salute with the excitement in his heart: "Hehe, Miss Ji is polite, Si Zhuangshi is fighting for the country, and the court should treat his family members well, this is a matter of course, Miss Ji doesn't have to be polite."
While he was talking, a maroon war horse galloped over, jumped from the horse and jumped down a slightly shorter man of the same age as Hou Yi, and interjected: "What the prince said is very true, the senior brother serves the country, and it is a matter of course for the family to receive the salary, and the senior sister does not have to refuse."
Chang'e glanced at the man and found that it was Hou Yi's junior brother Feng Meng, who was the same as Hou Yi who learned from his father, so she couldn't help frowning and asked, "Senior brother Feng Meng, why are you here?"
Feng Meng said with a smile: "Master, his old man can't find you, guessing that you are chasing after your senior brother, so he ordered me to come to check." ” Li Longji glanced at Feng Meng, and asked with his hand: "Who is this strong man?"
"Back to the prince's words, this is Si Yi's junior brother Feng Meng, who is also proficient in archery and has the ability to penetrate Yang in a hundred steps."
Li Hongzhang accosted him beside him.
Li Longji bowed his head and said: "Oh, since your skills are so strong, why don't you work for the country with Si Zhuangshi and win fame" Feng Meng said with a smile: "Master Li has won the award, my ability is compared to the candle flame compared to the senior brother, I have not learned the arts, and I dare not go down the mountain." ” Hou Yi patted Feng Meng's shoulder vigorously: "It's not early, senior brother should go on the road, you have to help me take care of Master and Senior Sister Chang'e when I am not in Datang." ” "Senior brother, rest assured, I will definitely take care of my senior sister like a sister-in-law" Feng Meng patted his chest and packed the ticket to Hou Yi.
Hou Yi jumped onto the side of the ship, waved his big hand, and shouted "anchor" The big ship sailed westward and slowly sailed into the rough sea, Hou Yi stood straight at the bow of the boat, looking west with great ambition, and never looked back at Chang'e on the shore.
Looking at the big ship chopping the waves, gradually moving away, never waiting for her sweetheart to look back, Chang'e was full of loss, sighed resentfully, and greeted Fengmeng: "Senior brother, let's go back to Taibai Mountain" At this moment, a soldier pointed to the sea and said, "There is a small boat from the west."
Now the Tang and Han Dynasty are in full swing, from Cheongju Seung Shan Jiao to Jeolla Province Baeknyeong Island is only 150 or 60 miles away, Yi Sunsin's Tang army sailors and Zheng Chenggong's Qingzhou sailors are fighting hide and seek at sea, and all the fishing boats have long disappeared, and suddenly such a small boat comes, which makes the Tang officials on the shore very surprised.
After a while, the boat docked, and a figure with a height of two feet jumped off the shore first, and stretched out his hand to greet the people on the boat: "Lady, I'll help you get off the boat."
Everyone looked at it, isn't this Li Yuanba, the king of Zhao in Xifu, and hurriedly stepped forward to pay homage to Shi Li: "The ministers have seen His Royal Highness King Zhao."
Li Yuanba didn't look back, and muttered: "Go and prepare two carriages for me, I want to take my wife and two younger brothers back to the palace." ” Zhuge Dan jumped off the boat first, and Li Yuanba helped the eldest grandson Wujian down one left and one right, and shouted to the Tang officials with great might: "Princess Zhao is here, don't you hurry up and pay homage."
All the civil and military forces couldn't help but look at each other, which made Li Yuanba furious, and said with his hands on his hips: "You damn dog officials, dare to be disrespectful to my lady, believe it or not, I will swing a sledgehammer and smash all of you into meatloaf and throw them into the sea to feed the fish."
Frightened, all the civil and military hurriedly saluted: "King Zhao, please calm your anger, and the ministers will visit the princess Niangniang" After the civil and military salutes were completed, Li Longji stepped forward to meet Li Yuanba with a smile on his face: "The junior brother has seen Brother Wang, the Qingzhou War is about to begin, Brother Wang didn't stay where to help the war, why did he suddenly return to the Tang Dynasty?"
The eldest grandson Wujian took a step forward and said coldly: "How can the dignified King Zhao of the Tang Dynasty, the son of the Emperor Taishang, and the brother of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, have no power to decide what he should do."
"Hehe, sister-in-law Wang's words are serious, how can the little brother have such intentions" Li Longji hurriedly made amends.
The eldest grandson's innocent gaze slowly fell on Chang'e, even as a woman, her eyes lit up, and she asked: "Who is this girl, who is so beautiful?"
Li Longji told Chang'e's identity with a smile, and the eldest grandson Wujian turned his eyes after listening, stepped forward and took Chang'e's hand and said: "Sister, I have a sense of déjà vu with you, I am not familiar with life when I first came to Datang, how about you chat with me for a few days to relieve my boredom and relieve my sister's lovesickness."
Chang'e frowned slightly, and secretly wondered in her heart: Although this Jeolla king is a talent, and his speech and demeanor are gentle and elegant, why do I always feel that his eyes have ulterior motives to make people feel uneasy This princess looks very strong, so I am close to her, and with her care, it is expected that this Jeolla king will not dare to come nonsense "Chang'e is also familiar with her sister at first sight, since she is loved by the princess, it is better to obey her fate than to be respectful" Chang'e smiled, called her sister, and agreed to the invitation of the eldest grandson.
After a while, the carriage was ready, the eldest grandson Wujian and Chang'e shared a car, Li Yuanba urged a lamp under his crotch, and the guards who carried the drum urn and the golden hammer did not leave the left and right, and after Zhuge Dan and Fengmeng Palace, he took Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji to the direction of the capital.
Watching Li Yuanba and his entourage drift away, the civil and military forces on the shore each muttered in their hearts: Datang suddenly has an extra princess and two princes, but I am afraid that it will not be peaceful Luoyang, people's hearts are panicked and in chaos.
Li Jing's army has already passed Huaixian and is marching towards Mengjin Port, and it is expected that the troops will arrive at Luoyang City in about two days.
In terms of the Tiger Pass, Yang Su has abandoned the pass, except for the routed new army, the whereabouts of the main force of the lineage are unknown.
Gao Chong, Yue Yun, Gao Changgong, Feng Sheng and other four generals each raised 20,000 troops to pass the Tiger Prison Pass, and galloped towards the starry night of Luoyang, as if they were preparing to compete with Li Jing's army for the first merit in winning Luoyang.
One hundred and fifty miles from the Tiger Prison Pass to Luoyang, almost the same distance as Li Jing's army on the other side of the Yellow River, which means that Luoyang will be besieged by nearly 300,000 Eastern Han Dynasty troops two days later.
Therefore, from the moment the news of Yang Su's abandonment of the Tiger Prison Pass spread to Luoyang, the people were panicked, and the whole city fell into chaos.
Some of the traitors and criminals, the evil gentry and bullies packed their bags and began to run away to Chang'an, but more people were looking forward to waiting for the Eastern Han Dynasty to enter Luoyang and return a new life to this smoky miasma in Gyeonggi Yang Jian, who was sitting in Luoyang, had already gathered the Manchu civil and military forces overnight to discuss countermeasures, preparing to transfer all the important materials in the granary of the state treasury and move to Chang'an as quickly as possible.
Although escaping to Chang'an may not be able to survive for a few days, it can survive for a day On the Jinluan Hall of Luoyang Nangong, the six-year-old little emperor Liu Ling was napping on the dragon chair, and these ministers in the middle of the night disturbed themselves uneasy, which was really annoying Just when Yang Jian convened the civil and military forces to discuss the relocation of the capital in the South Palace of Luoyang, Yang Guangzheng, who was appointed as the general of the Gyeonggi Wei Xiaocai, summoned his henchmen and generals to gather in the palace to discuss countermeasures.
Yang Su, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Di and others are all fighting abroad all the year round, so the military power of Luoyang gradually fell on Yang Guang's body, half of the 20,000 defenders are his descendants, and most of the generals are promoted by Yang Guang, but Yang Guang's order is obeyed.
In addition to the generals under his command, in the mansion of Yang Jian, who was canonized as the king of Qi by Liu Che, more than 2,000 members of the Yang clan and disciples have also gathered at the behest of Yang Guang to plan an earth-shattering military coup.
Seeing that all the henchmen had arrived, Yang Guang, who was covered in armor, climbed to a high place and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, the Liu family has no way, causing the anger of the heavens and the resentment, first there was the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and then there were the princes dividing the territory, resulting in the people's misery and white bones.
Now we should abolish the Liu clan and set up another emperor."
"Hongnong Yang's fourth Taiwei, the prestige is still above the Yuan clan in Runan, the son of the world is resolute and resolute, can be literary and martial, eloquent and strategic, govern the country well, should inherit the position of the Son of Heaven, and be orthodox" After Yang Guang's instruction, all the confidants and generals raised their weapons and shouted loudly to support Yang Guang's ascension to the throne and claim the emperor.
Yang Guang looked embarrassed: "How can Yang Guang dare to ascend to the throne even if he wants to be called the emperor, it should be his father to be the emperor, right, this matter needs to be discussed again" The confidants and generals continued to follow the agreed demagoguery of the army: "Now is the time of life and death, you can no longer follow the rules, the king of Qi governs the country well, but it is not as bold as the prince to invite the prince to ascend the throne and call the emperor, establish the king of Qi as the emperor, revitalize the dynasty, and resist the Han invaders."
"Bold" With a shout, Yang Biao, who was recuperating at home with a sick life, walked quickly, he was over sixty years old, Yang Biao, who had a white beard and hair, was out of breath, trembling on crutches, pointing at Yang Guang and scolding: "I, the fourth captain of the Hongnong Yang family, have been loyal to martyrs for generations, you dare to usurp the emperor, do a great rebellion, and put the Yang family in a place of no return." t1706231537:
