The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

But at this moment, Yuchi Jingde became worried, for there was not a single master like this among the soldiers and horses on his Tang side.

Yuchi Jingde cried out anxiously, how to fight this battle.

However, he didn't know that such a master would not intervene in a war at will, let alone intervene in a war at will.

Worrying is all about worrying, but Yuchi Jingde still puffed up his chest, got off his horse, walked a few steps forward, looked at the Tubo man in front of him and said, "I don't know, I'm just the coach here, for the Tubo envoy in Chang'an I don’t know anything about the regiment, if you want to know, please send an envoy from Tubo Kingdom to Chang’an to ask about it.”

How could Yuchi Jingde not know, but he didn't want to say it, and he couldn't say it.

Besides, that is the matter of the Tang Kingdom. Does it mean that when some master comes from the Tubo Kingdom, he has to tell him everything?

Of course it can't.

No matter how stupid Yuchi Jingde is, he also knows that this matter is not something he can intervene in. Apart from the current Holy Master, there are only Ying Ying and Zhong Wen.

"I don't know at all? Do you really not know?" Walu was a little unhappy when he heard such a result, and asked Yuchi Jingde angrily.

"I really don't know, I'm just a warrior, and I don't have much power to intervene in matters above the court." Yuchi Jingde said carelessly.

"Well, you send someone back to your capital to ask, and you can give me the answer within three days, otherwise, then don't blame the knife in Wu's hand." No matter what the Tang coach opposite him said, I thought about it, but I still let it out and gave Yuchi Jingde three days.

As soon as he finished speaking, Walu jumped away and headed out of Songzhou City. In the blink of an eye, there was no one there.

"General, this..." The nearby generals saw the Tubo man leaving, they couldn't do anything to stop him, so they had to ask Yuchi Jingde.

"Alas", Yuchi Jingde sighed, and ordered the general who was watching the night, "Continue to patrol." After that, he galloped away.

The Tubo people had left, so he, Yuchi Jingde, naturally had to quickly pass the news back to Chang'an, otherwise, the consequences would not be so easy to bear.

The Tubo mission was killed in Chang'an, Yuchi Jingde didn't know who gave the order.

However, Yuchi Jingde thought it was Zhong Wen's order.

According to the position of Zhong Wen's regular servant, he also has the power to issue this order to kill the members of the Tubo mission.

However, this matter was actually an order from Li Shimin.

However, at that time, it was Zhong Wen who stopped at the gate of the palace city, preventing all civil servants and generals from entering the palace city to plead for the members of the Tubo mission.

Naturally, the crime of this matter fell on Zhong Wen's head.

Yuchi Jingde, who had returned to the Commander's Mansion, immediately called a scribe to help him write a long letter, and then called two postmen in the army, and rushed to Chang'an overnight.

Three days.

The Tubo man only gave him three days.

He had to arrive at Chang'an within three days, and Chang'an had to reply to a letter, or send someone there, otherwise, Yuchi Jingde, the Tubo master, could stop him.

……

Chang'an, who has been talking for the past two days, is very lively.

After the soldiers and horses that attacked Chang'an were drawn out, the people in the city were always discussing this matter from time to time.

From the officials to the common people, no matter who they are, they are all talking about the war between the two countries.

Although the war has not yet started, some underground gambling houses in Chang'an City have opened odds on the outcome of the war between the two countries.

The owner of the gambling house didn't know who it was, so he calculated Tang Guo's odds directly at [-] odds.

In fact, there were countless wars between the Tubo Kingdom and the Tang Kingdom. If you start counting from the previous dynasty, the total number of wars, large and small, would not be less than a hundred.

However, among the hundred cases, it is estimated that there are only ten cases.

And this underground gambling house, every time the two countries go to war, must make a lot of money.

As for this time, the odds have been directly adjusted from the original ten to one odds to fifty.

Every day, this underground gambling house is overcrowded. From morning to night, people come in and out, all of them are running towards the gambling house, just wanting to win some money with this war.

Of course, Xu Fu didn't let go of such a thing.

Although, Xu Fu didn't dare to go big, he was cautious, the Tang side suppressed a hundred guan, and the Tubo side also suppressed a hundred guan.

"Housekeeper Xu, today we are going to eat braised pork. You can cook it at noon. The cook's cooking is not as delicious as yours." In the morning, Xiumu's little flower just finished her breakfast and instructed Xu Fu.

"Okay, little lady, if you want to eat, then I'll make it for the little lady, and make more." Xu Fu was very happy when he heard Xiaohua's words.

On weekdays, most of the meals in the house are prepared by the cook, and Xu Fu rarely has the time to do it.

And Xiaohua asked Xu Fu to cook by name today, which shows that Xiaohua and the others agree with Xu Fu's cooking skills, and also affirm Xu Fu.

As for Zhong Wen, he hasn't been in the mood to make meals recently. Even during breakfast, Xiao Hua begged for a long time, but Zhong Wen didn't agree, so Xiao Hua turned to Xu Fulai.

"Xu Fu, don't spoil them." Zhong Wen persuaded Xu Fu after seeing Xiao Hua and the others leave.

"Master Dao, I'm not used to it. If the food in this house is not well prepared, that's my problem. Besides, the girls are growing up. If they don't eat better, others will not eat well in the future." You know what to say about the County Marquis's Mansion." Xu Fu retorted.

Although, it is definitely not allowed for the housekeeper to refute the master's house and put it in another house.

But in the County Marquis Mansion, this kind of dialogue is not once or twice.

Xu Fu had already figured out Zhong Wen's temperament, and he was very casual.

As long as it is clear before the major issues, Zhong Wen will not reprimand Xu Fu for such trivial matters.

"You." Zhong Wen shook his head and said helplessly.

Xu Fu stood aside and laughed along with him.

With such a master, Xu Fu thought he was following the right person.

In fact, Zhong Wen never cared about everything in the mansion, only caring about the safety of the mansion.

Even if it was about the restaurant, Zhong Wen never asked, even how much money he earned or lost, Zhong Wen never asked.

However, Xiao Hua often followed Xu Fu to calculate the business of the restaurant, and she was carrying Zhong Wen behind her back, so she didn't know what she was planning.

Although Zhong Wen knew that Xiao Hua would talk to Xu Fu every few days, Zhong Wen didn't bother to bother.

A girl, looking for Xu Fu as a housekeeper, what else can she do, she just asks for money, this is Zhong Wen's thinking and opinion.

"By the way, Daoist, I heard something yesterday, and I don't know whether I should say it or not." Suddenly, Xu Fu thought about what he heard when he went to the gambling house yesterday, and wondered whether he should report it to Zhong Wen.

"What's the matter? Is it from a restaurant?" Zhong Wen asked a little puzzled.

As far as Zhong Wen knew, Xu Fu basically spoke directly when he had something to do, but today he seemed to be hesitant.

"Master Dao, it's not about the restaurant. It has nothing to do with the restaurant or the mansion. It has something to do with the imperial court." Seeing Zhong Wen's question, Xu Fu quickly explained.

"Is it related to the court? Anyway, there is nothing wrong, let's talk about it." Zhong Wen asked.

Although, during the recent period, Zhong Wen didn't go to Miyagi, didn't look for shadows, and even more didn't stare at the two masters of the Fusang Mission.

He didn't pay attention to some things about the court either, mainly because his heart was getting cold.

"Master Daoist, yesterday I heard that the foreign missions of the Honghe Temple all gathered in Miyagi to make trouble. It seems that it is for the affairs of the Tubo Kingdom. I don't know the specifics, but I just heard that Honghe All the missions from various countries in the temple have gone, and none of them have been left behind." Xu Fu responded.

"Oh?" Zhong Wen became curious about such a thing after hearing Xu Fu's words.

There are not just one or two missions from various countries in Honglu Temple, but dozens of them.

If they all go to Miyagi to make trouble, there will be hundreds of people.

Zhong Wen was thinking that the members of these missions went to Miyagi to cause trouble for a Tubo country, probably because they didn't want to become the next Tubo country.

And there are many small countries around the Tang country.

From Turkic in the north, Linyi in the east, Fusang, and Liuqiu in the south, and some countries in Southeast Asia in the south, not to mention the west.

Not to mention the nearby ones, the far ones can reach the vicinity of Persia, and there are also many countries on the Persian side, and many missions have been sent to Tang.

If it gets any closer, it will be the countries of the Western Regions, which is a hodgepodge.

With so many people gathering to make trouble, it is estimated that Li Shimin can drink a pot.

Indeed, yesterday when people from missions from various countries gathered at the gate of the palace city to petition to meet the Tang emperor, they were rejected, and they never left.

And today, this early in the morning, the members of these missions gathered at the gate of the palace city again, petitioning to meet Li Shimin.

Chapter 4: Little Flower Fist, Big Sand Bowl

"Master Dao, do you think those foreign missions would not want to make trouble? This is not just one or two people. The number of foreign missions is hundreds or even thousands. If they really go to Miyagi to make trouble I don't know what the Holy Majesty has done." Although Xu Fu was not very worried, he also thought about the good relationship between Zhong Wen and the royal family, so he asked Zhong Wen.

"That's a matter in the palace, and it's not up to you or me to think about it. Just be yourself." Although Zhong Wen didn't care about those foreign missions, his curiosity began to be suspended.

In fact, the Tubo Kingdom wanted to launch a war against the Tang Kingdom, and this matter was originally drawn out by Zhong Wen and his sister. As for putting all the charges on Zhong Wen, Zhong Wen did not agree with this point.

However, because of the war between Tubo and Tang, these foreign missions began to fear that Tang wanted to attack their country.

At this point, they are also afraid, so they want to take this opportunity to make trouble, or want to know the specific thoughts of the current Tang emperor, whether he will make room later to launch a war against their country.

A small country has its own survival rules. They dare not compete with the Tang country. They only want to attach themselves to the Tang country, so that they can get some corresponding protection and develop well under the wings of the Tang country.

As for what will happen in the future, each country has its own thoughts, such as Goguryeo.

This country has always been learning from Tang State, learning Tang State's powerful technology and strong military capabilities.

However, the heart will not be too good.

Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, had already planned in his heart, but the current national power of the Tang Dynasty was not strong enough. Once the Tang Dynasty became stronger, he would definitely attack Goguryeo, the so-called domestic slave.

After Xu Fu heard Zhong Wen's words, he didn't pay attention to the affairs of the mission anymore. After talking to Zhong Wen, he went to the restaurant to have a look.

But Zhong Wen was sitting with his master Yue Li in a certain pavilion in the mansion, drinking tea and chatting about things.

As for Yue Li's son, he also stayed on the side, quietly helping to pour tea, or boil water or something.

"Marquis Zhongxian, there are constant disputes in this court, civil and military are not tolerated. If there is no suppression by the Holy One, I don't know what will happen. But now, the Tubo Kingdom wants to use force against our Tang Dynasty, and the various foreign missions Taking the opportunity to make trouble again, I can't see what will happen next," Yue Li said.

"As for the matter in the court, the people in the court are free to worry about it. We don't need to guess what the Holy One thinks, he has his own ideas." Zhong Wen actually heard the meaning of Yue Li's words.

On weekdays, the two of them only talked about ordinary things, and rarely talked about things about the court.

But today Yue Li suddenly talked to him about the court, just because he wanted to find an errand for his son.

As for his Yueli, he is the master of the County Marquis Mansion, so naturally the master is the main one. It is hard to say whether he still has any thoughts about the matters in the court, but from various indications, there is still some meaning .

It's not that Zhong Wen doesn't want to help Yue Li's son find a job, it's just that he can't do it for the time being.

People have to get along for a while to know their character, not to mention, how long has Yue Li, the master and his family, been together?Only a few months?

According to Zhong Wen's thinking, it will take at least several years to see clearly the thinking of these literati, and if he is eager to help, he may be the one who suffers in the end.

The sloppy Zhong Wen has always been reluctant to talk about the affairs of the court.

And Yue Li gradually understood that Zhong Wen didn't want to talk about the affairs of the court for the time being.

However, his son was so impatient that even helping to pour tea, he began to feel a little unsteady.

All of this, in Zhong Wen's eyes, was exactly as he had guessed at the beginning.

……

At this time, in Longevity Square.

"You are Zhong Li? Last time I heard that you beat Guo Bao? Come on, how about we do a few tricks?" At this time, on a certain street in Changshoufang, a young man brought Guo Bao and the others to beat him. Xiaohua and the others were surrounded in the middle, shouting loudly to Xiaohua.

Xiao Hua looked at these teenagers, she wasn't scared at all, even Ren Fei wasn't too scared, but the two sisters Ren Zhu were a little nervous.

Of course, those who are not nervous, there are the two of Xiaohua's maidservants, Xiaolu, who usually follow Xiaohua.

Although they were not nervous, but as servants, they naturally had to protect Xiaohua and the others.

"What do you want to do? You bad boys, if you dare to break my little lady, look at me..." Just as Xiaolu pointed at those teenagers and yelled.

But Xiaohua opened her mouth, pulled Xiaolu to the back, looked at the group of bad boys in front of her with an arrogant look, and said, "Are you here to avenge him? Don't be beaten until then, run away!" Go and complain to your family."

After Xiaolu was lifted behind by Xiaohua, although she wanted to talk, but seeing Xiaohua's momentum, it was obvious that she wanted to fight.

However, Xiaolu also knows that Xiaohua's skill is not comparable to them.

The servants in the mansion have already seen the martial arts practice time every morning.

When it comes to fighting, these servants also know that Xiaohua will never lose to these bad boys in a fight. Immediately, they feel relieved and stand behind, watching these bad boys.

However, the two of their servants were also thinking that if something happened, they would have to inform someone immediately, in case their little lady would be beaten up or something.

"Haha, we won't tell my lord, after a while we beat you to the ground, don't go to your lord, Guo Bao, and you, go together, put this girl on the ground and beat me. "The young man pointed at Guo Bao, then pointed at several young men beside him and shouted.

This young man, named Zhang San, doesn't live in Changshou Fang, but lives in Chang'an Fang, and his family background is not bad, one year older than Guo Bao, in Chang'an Fang, looking for trouble every day, It can be said that the whole Chang'an Square is so noisy, and it can be regarded as the top boy in Chang'an Square.

During this period of time, Guo Bao didn't know what he was thinking. He went to Chang'anfang and invited the most powerful person in the nearby Lifang to come over, saying that he wanted to avenge him or something.
