Early the next morning, Kong Sheng led Wuxian Wujie and more than 100 Mo sword cavalry to raise their horses and whips, and went all the way west from Luoyang to Chang'an.
At the same time, Tang Genshui and others also led the Xiayi army and horses, and Su Wu led the Xixi soldiers and horses to set off for Xiayi.
This is the edict of the emperor and the imperial court.
Zhang Hao stood on the tower of Luoyang City, looking at the smoke and dust of more than 100 people galloping away from Kong Sheng, and couldn't help but sigh softly.
It was only two or three days when he got along with Kong Sheng, but these two or three days left a deep impression on Zhang Hao.
From the initial contempt to the awe-inspiring now, a young man who is not as old as a weak crown, his talent and the invincible heroic posture of holding the Fang Tian painting halberd are engraved into the depths of Zhang Hao's heart.
In fact, he is not the only one who feels the same way as Zhang Hao.
Almost most of the officers and soldiers on the city tower were turning their heads to look at Kong Sheng's direction to Chang'an, with complicated expressions.
October 11th.
Kong Sheng and his entourage arrived at the periphery of Chang'an, on the banks of the Weishui River.
Kong Sheng galloped his horse, turned over and dismounted on the bank of the Weishui River that galloped and roared from west to east, the autumn wind swept between the sky and the earth, and the dark clouds covered the sky, although it was only afternoon, but the sky was clearly a little dark.
Kong Sheng stood by the river, looking at the surging river, the river was turbulent, but there were still a few flat boats drifting with the waves on the river, several fishermen holding the boats, and the song of Qingyue faintly came from the bleak autumn wind.
"The Han Emperor is heavy on the country, and Yuyu has been unable to ask for it for many years.
The Yang family has a girl who has just grown up, and she is raised in the deep boudoir.
It is difficult to give up the natural beauty, and once chose the king's side.
Looking back and smiling, the six palaces have no color" It turned out to be a song of long-hatred A trace of complexity flashed in Kong Sheng's eyes.
And the more than 100 fierce Mo sword soldiers standing behind him stood silently, with a look of reverence.
Most of these soldiers were cavalrymen under Li Biao and Li Hu who followed Kong Sheng from Jiangbei to Suiyang, followed Kong Sheng for a long time, and their loyalty to Kong Sheng far exceeded that of ordinary Xiayi soldiers.
In the eyes of these old subordinates, Kong Sheng is a god-like existence.
Any disadvantage or disrespect to Kong Sheng will trigger a strong backlash from these thugs.
This is the key factor for Li Biao and Li Hu to insist that Kong Sheng bring these more than 100 people to Beijing.
Kong Sheng stared at the river for a long time, and couldn't help but turn his head to look in the direction of Baqiao, which was heading north.
After crossing the Baqiao, it is Chang'an.
The magnificent city of Chang'an City is faintly in sight, but Kong Sheng knows very well in his heart that the current Chang'an is in the aftermath of the war, and it has long since ceased to be the grand occasion of "opening the palace in nine days, and all countries are dressed and crowned".
But despite this, Chang'an City is still one of the largest cities in the world, and after the rebellion is quelled, as long as there is half a year, Chang'an City's vitality will be restored.
At this moment, the cars and horses on the side of the Baqiao were full of people, and a team with royal crowns and flags came slowly, Kong Sheng's heart moved, waved his hand, and signaled his subordinates to get out of the way and not block the progress of others.
Emperor Li Heng has returned to Chang'an, and Emperor Taishang Li Longji has also returned to Chang'an from Shuzhong, and he should still be on the way at this moment.
At the feet of the Son of Heaven, in the capital of the Tang Dynasty, powerful royal families are everywhere, and if you are not careful, you will get into trouble.
Kong Sheng didn't want to be contaminated with right and wrong when he first arrived in Chang'an, so he whispered to Wu Xianwu next to him to explain two sentences.
The team is getting closer.
The well-armored palace guards opened the way, and the three luxurious carriages were connected end to end, followed by many palace maids and eunuchs on both sides of the carriage, and finally there were dozens of soldiers carrying various colored flags, with a huge momentum, at least three or four hundred people.
As soon as Kong Sheng saw this formation, he guessed that it was at least a prince or prince traveling.
Kong Sheng stood on the bank of the river, waved his hand, and all the soldiers dismounted and inserted the Mo knife on the ground in a uniform manner, and then stood solemnly and lowered his head and looked at his nose and nose, and his heart was silent According to Kong Sheng's meaning, it is to avoid this chariot and horse honor guard, and then cross the Baqiao to enter Chang'an, first find a place to live, and then go to the official department to report and wait for the emperor to summon him.
But he didn't think about it, what he was most worried about, whatever came.
The honor guard stopped on the side of the Baqiao, and then the team was divided into two columns, the vehicle honor guard was stationed in place, and more than 100 Praetorian Guards escorted a man and two women on high-headed horses galloping towards the riverside.
At the head was a man in his thirties in his prime, with a delicate face, wearing a purple silk robe, wearing a jade crown, straddling a red horse, and his bearing was magnificent.
Behind him, two women followed, dressed in strong costumes.
The older woman was about twenty-five or sixteen, with her hair in a bun common to aristocratic young women, a dark cloak, and a faint sadness between her eyebrows.
The younger woman, in her early twenties, has a delicate face, holds a horsewhip, and has a heroic temperament that does not allow women to shave their eyebrows.
Kong Sheng's heart tightened.
According to the dress and etiquette system of the Tang Dynasty, those who can wear purple robes are at least officials of the third grade or above and princes and ministers.
And when it came to the palace honor guard car that stopped at the Baqiao, Kong Sheng immediately judged that these three must be prominent princes and others.
The purple-robed man galloped to the front and threw a majestic glance at Kong Sheng's side.
After all, Kong Sheng's more than 100 soldiers were dressed up, even if they stood quietly on the banks of the Weishui River, they were still not small, and it was impossible to avoid attention.
Before the purple-robed man could say anything, he passed behind a general of the forbidden army, dressed as a captain, and shouted to Kong Sheng with a sword on his horse: "His Royal Highness King Zhao is here, and the idle people are waiting to avoid it quickly."

Hearing that it was the Li family of King Zhao, Kong Sheng subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the purple-robed man, and said in his heart that this was the Li family, the second son of Emperor Li Heng of Suzong.
Since this person is the Li family of King Zhao, then behind him must be Princess Ningguo and Princess Yining, and Princess Hou Feng Jiguo.
I heard that these two princesses are friendly with the Li family, and it is reasonable for them to travel together.
In front of the prince, Kong Sheng couldn't slack off, he immediately waved his hand, led everyone to bow down to the three of the Li family, and then retreated, preparing to give the Li family a place on the riverside.
The purple-robed man stared at Kong Sheng and looked at him from afar.
He suddenly said aloud: "How dare you, a young man, enter Chang'an with armor without authorization, collide with the king's guard of honor, and quickly report his name and surname."
Kong Sheng took a deep breath, took three steps forward with a calm face, bowed to Li and said, "Xiaguan Kong Sheng, on the orders of His Majesty, came from Luoyang and was ordered to drive."
These people are the guards of the lower officials, not the ones who entered the city with armor to collide with the prince, and I ask His Royal Highness King Zhao to forgive me."
Li was surprised at first, then burst out laughing, and jumped off the horse: "It turns out that you are Kong Taishou who shook Henan and conquered Luoyang in the south of the Yangtze River, and this king has admired his name for a long time."
Kong Sheng smiled respectfully: "Your Highness has won the award, and the lower officials dare not be it." ” Li Ji strode over unexpectedly, and patted Kong Sheng's shoulder with a smile: "Kong Sheng, you and I meet here, and it is also destined fate."
The day before yesterday, this king also talked to the two royal sisters that you are about to arrive in Beijing, and you don't want to bump into it today. ” The Li Department's attitude towards Kong Sheng was not only enthusiastic but also a little earnest, which made the surrounding guards a little dumbfounded, and said in his heart that this was the young Kong Sheng who shook Henan, and His Royal Highness King Zhao treated him very kindly.
Chapter 328 The autumn wind blows Weishui, and the fallen leaves are full of Chang'an 2 The autumn wind is bleak, and the waves of Weishui are surging.
If there is a choice, in fact, Kong Sheng is not willing to have too much contact with the prince's clan, and he has no intention of clinging to the powerful.
Because he knows better than anyone else that when he associates with the prince, he will often get caught up in the battle for the heir, and he will get into endless trouble.
But he is a subordinate of the Tang Dynasty, and the Li family, as the prince of the prince, treats him with great courtesy, and he is not good at treating him coldly.
Li Ji smiled and pointed to Princess Ning Guo and Princess Ji Guo behind him, and said, "Kong Sheng, have you seen Ning Guo and Princess Yining?"
Kong Sheng took a deep breath and bowed to Ning Guo and Yining: "Xiaguan Kong Sheng meets the two princesses."
Ning Guo's expression was calm, and he nodded to Kong Sheng with a slight smile, which was regarded as a return of the courtesy.
Although Ning Guo is a princess, she has a demure and gentle personality, and she is more indisputable after being widowed, and she met the legendary Kong Sheng, because she read Kong Sheng's poems a lot, she secretly looked at it twice, and saw that Kong Sheng was young and handsome, and he had some appreciation in his heart.
Yi Ning had a detached personality, looked at Kong Sheng and couldn't help but smile: "It turns out that you are the one Kong Sheng looks at you so weakly, if you want to say that you are the number one talent in Jiangnan, this palace can barely believe it, but if you want to say that you gallop on the battlefield and ten thousand enemies, this palace must be exaggerating." ” Kong Sheng smiled and bowed: "Originally, the world was too famous, how could Kong Sheng be virtuous, dare to call the enemy of ten thousand people, but let Her Royal Highness the princess laugh." ” Li Department shook his head slightly and said: "Yining, Kong Sheng led the army to shock the rebels in Henan, accumulated military exploits, and killed dozens of rebel generals one after another, this can still be fake."
Yining pursed her lips and shook her head in disbelief.
I really can't complain about Yining, it's really Kong Sheng's appearance that is too deceptive.
Slender and polite, he seems to be powerless, how can he be compared with the generals who crisscross the battlefield In fact, Princess Ningguo also didn't believe it, and felt that it might be exaggerated by the world.
Looking at Kong Sheng's speech and demeanor, he is elegant and elegant, and it is clear that he is a full scribe, even if he can go into battle to kill the enemy, he will not be fierce to the extent of ten thousand enemies in any case.
It's just that Ning Guo won't show it on his face like Yining.
"Well, don't argue about that.
Come on, set up a banquet, this king and Kong Taishou have a drink on the bank of the Weishui River" Li has long had the intention to win over Kong Sheng to join his camp, and if he meets today, how can he easily let Kong Sheng leave.
Li ordered that the palace maids and eunuchs around him would be busy immediately, and after a short time, they would spread a carpet on the riverside and set up four desks, depending on the guests and hosts.
Kong Sheng had no choice but to obey.
Li is full of talent, good conversation, clear words, he deliberately made friends, Kong Sheng was a little repulsed and a little helpless in his heart.
However, to be honest, he had a good impression of the Li family, and felt that this prince was quite instrumental, although his corporal Lixian had the purpose of wooing him.
There are not many records of the Li family in the history books, and the ink is very small.
If the trend of history remains unchanged, in a few years, the Li family will die at the hands of Li Fuguo and Cheng Yuanzhen.
Speaking of which, it is still the fault of the emperor's throne, if the Li family is indifferent to fame and fortune and does not touch the throne, it must not be killed.
It's just that as the son of the emperor, especially an important prince with high ambitions, it is unrealistic to say that he has no thoughts about the throne at all.
Li asked about Kong Sheng's many wars in Henan one by one with a gentle attitude, and his attitude was friendly, without a little arrogance, not like a meeting between the prince and his subordinates, but more like a meeting between old friends for many years, talking and laughing.
"Kong Sheng, this king has heard of your poetry for a long time, and the poems you wrote have already been recited all over the world, and my two imperial sisters have also been reading for a long time.
Today is the time for its meeting, it is better to take Weishui as the theme and write a poem, so that this king and Ningguo Yining sister can open their eyes" Li Xian smiled loudly and looked at Kong Sheng deeply.
Kong Sheng secretly smiled bitterly in his heart, knowing that what the prince said politely, in fact, he still had the heart of the school examination to see if he was a waste of fame.
Kong Sheng's most repulsive and helpless thing is to compose poetry.
But in a country like Datang, as the famous No. 1 talent in Jiangnan, if he can't sing a masterpiece, I'm afraid he will be discredited, which is related to his future destiny.
He hugged his fist to Li Xian, smiled, and was about to say a few polite words, when he suddenly heard the thunder rumbling, the haze in the sky pressed down, and the fine rain fell from the sky.
The palace maid and eunuch set up a pergola to protect from the rain, Li looked up at the sky, and smiled at Ning Guo and Yining: "Two sisters, this king said that there is rain today, but you don't believe it, what is the result, but enjoying the beautiful scenery of Weishui in the rain can be regarded as a different feeling."
Li turned his head to look at Kong Sheng again.
Kong Sheng sighed, knowing that he couldn't hide, so he smiled slightly and said slowly: "The old man sails away, and the toad recovers."

The autumn wind gives birth to Weishui, and the fallen leaves are full of Chang'an.
On the day of the meeting, it was a thunderstorm and a cold storm.
Lan Huan has not returned, and the news is cloudy. ” Li listened sideways, and immediately clapped his hands with joy: "What a good genius Kong Sheng, the first genius in the south of the Yangtze River, is really talented and quick, and the literary brilliance is overflowing, and the autumn breeze is full of Weishui, and the two poems of Chang'an are full of fallen leaves, which is really an eye-opener for this king."
Yi Ning happily clapped his hands and praised: "Okay, Kong Sheng, this palace admits that your name as the first talent in the south of the Yangtze River is not touted, and this poem is recorded for this palace, and this palace will go back to let the people of the music workshop compose and sing."
Princess Ningguo's eyes shone with a thick light, and there was a trace of tenderness in her gaze when she threw herself at Kong Sheng again, and she said softly: "Kong Taishou is missing the old man, I don't know where your old man went from Chang'an?"
Kong Sheng was secretly embarrassed, and immediately replied with a smile: "If you go back to Your Highness, the old man of Xiaguan is a native of Chang'an, and now he has set sail to the sea and gone to a very far place, as for when he will return, Kong Sheng doesn't know." ” Princess Ning Guo sighed, and didn't ask any more.
Li laughed: "Kong Sheng's poem is not only a nostalgia for the old man, but also a metaphor for the meeting between the king and him on the bank of the Weishui River today, both times are thunderstorms, but it is also the fate destined by God."
"Kong Sheng, do you have a place to live in Chang'an?"
asked Li tentatively.
Kong Sheng secretly said that it was not good, but it was not easy to lie, so he had to say softly: "The lower official is waiting to enter the city to find a post house to stay, and then go to the official department to report and wait for His Majesty to summon him." ” Li Department smiled: "What kind of post house are you looking for, as soon as you and I see each other, you will follow me back to the city and live in my house."
Kong Sheng, don't worry, you have made meritorious contributions in Henan, and you have made great contributions to the country, and this queen will definitely present it to her father and the emperor in the future, and strive for a reward for you. ” Kong Sheng secretly complained in his heart, but on the surface, he had no choice but to bow his hand and thank: "Thank you, Your Highness, Your Majesty is grateful." ” If he lived in the palace of King Zhao, and the Li family personally played the emperor, Kong Sheng would undoubtedly be labeled as the king of Zhao, which was the result of Kong Sheng's helplessness.
Fortunately, he had a good impression of the Li family, and felt that this person sat everything in the open, and there was no lack of sincerity in courting, and he acted frankly, but he was also a bright gentleman. oshow7 t1706231537:
