Datang: I was the champion in high school, but was persuaded to quit by the court

The two toasted at the same time, and raised their heads to drink at the same time. The tea was light, but it did not hinder the power officials of the Tang Dynasty who had their own ghosts and had reached an ulterior deal with the Marshal of Goguryeo.

Mr. Changsun, who came out of the gate of the restaurant again, did not walk out with his feet, but was pushed down the stairs and then crawled. He looked decadent and sighed, which made the two guards outside the door suddenly murderous. Anyway, the eldest grandson My lord is also a member of Datang, no matter how unaccustomed he is to his style and character, how could he allow foreigners to bully him at will.

"I'm fine, don't make any trouble!"

"I have done my best, the next thing, I can only wait for God to open his eyes!"

Cheng Yaojin's two army guards, how can they compare with the old grandson Wuji? Seeing the behavior of the unkempt adult, they all thought that the adult's painstaking comfort in the restaurant was not enough, and instead they were beaten severely. Eyes are red.

The corners of his mouth revealed a bit of weirdness imperceptibly, and Changsun Wuji, who quickly returned to calm, had no choice but to act to the end, half-dragging, and dragging the two angry guards who wanted to break into it rashly, away from the Goguryeo realm .

Zhu Zhao followed Gai Shuwen from the same source and stood in front of the window. He was the one who pushed the eldest grandson Wuji down the stairs who proposed this plan just now. Although he controlled the strength in his hands, he guessed that the eldest grandson still suffered a lot.

"This eldest grandson Wuji is so insidious that it is frightening!"

Hearing the somewhat disgusted emotion from the military commander behind him, Yuan Gai Shuwen, who was as calm as water, stretched out his hand to lift the teapot, and spun around the teacup to pour water. A smile.

"The poison of a tiger does not eat its offspring, but the Tang Dynasty in the Central Plains cannot tolerate a small Jiannan Dao!"

"You said it was funny or not!"

Cheng Yaojin hurriedly returned to Chang'an after a few days, because he was concerned about border crossings and feared that something might happen, he hurried into the palace in the middle of the night, and insisted on meeting His Majesty despite the guards' obstruction.

"Let him in!"

Li Shimin had already lay down, but only in a light sleep. After hearing the noise outside the house and Cheng Yaojin's voice, he hurriedly dressed and got up, and only frowned and opened his mouth in doubt when he entered the room.

"Why did you come back alone?"

Cheng Yaojin had no choice but to tell the whole story, he didn't dare to add more details, and he didn't deliberately omit anything, even the fact that he left two guards to follow Changsun Wuji, he told the whole story, and he didn't dare to be complacent about it.

"You mean, Goguryeo wants to discuss with Datang because of Jiannan Dao?"

Cheng Yaojin, who was holding the herbal tea cow drink rewarded by His Majesty, couldn't help nodding. After drinking it in a big gulp, he put down the white jade porcelain bowl in his hand, and said,

"The Marshal of Goguryeo is indeed talking about the merchants of Goguryeo, who went to Jiannan Road with the intention of making friends with the Central Plains!"

"In the end, Lin Hao, the chief official of Guanxian County, tricked him, causing their king to go to war with Tang Dynasty!"

Li Shimin turned his head, sharp eyes flashed in his eyes, and his face was full of sarcasm. He didn't fight sooner or later, just because he was cheated by a 310 county magistrate in the Central Plains, and he was about to start a war?

"Do you believe?"

Cheng Yaojin was stunned, he didn't know whether His Majesty wanted him to believe it or not, so he had to give his original opinion.

"Of course I don't believe it!"

Li Shimin nodded approvingly. If Cheng Yaojin nodded and believed like other civil and military men who are stalking, he would inevitably make him look down on him, and turned to the desk. The delivery process bites gold.

"You set off immediately and hand over this letter to Lin Hao through the General Chamber of Commerce!"

"You should know what to say and what not to say!"

"I will let Qin Qiong lead the team to the border gate tomorrow, and you don't have to worry about Changsun Wuji's side!"

"Remember, you must hand it over to him!"

Although Cheng Yaojin didn't quite understand His Majesty's intentions, seeing that His Majesty was so serious, he immediately agreed without any hesitation, and after saluting with his fists together, he turned around and strode away.

Li Shimin stared at Cheng Yaojin's back, not knowing whether his actions were right or not, but at least.

He is willing to bet on Lin Hao.  …

338: Treacherous, Evil, Vicious-minded Generation 【Please order】

Cheng Yaojin rode his horse galloping on the official road. He has been completely reduced to a messenger and a sounding board in the past few days. He ran from the border to Chang'an, and from Chang'an on the official road to Jiannan Road. It would be a lie to say that he has no grievances at all.

Although he didn't know why His Majesty wrote to Lin Hao, and why he sent it in the name of the General Chamber of Commerce, he also knew that His Majesty's layout has always been far-reaching, so he had to follow the routine, took a bite of the big cake in his hand and continued to sway his horsewhip, towards Jiannan. way forward.

dawn.

After the early dynasty, the generals of the Tang Dynasty dispatched hundreds of thousands of troops from all over the country, and headed to the east of the Central Plains to garrison the frontier. From the solemnity of His Majesty, all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty felt the tense atmosphere of the wind and rain. , everyone is at risk.

Half an hour later, outside the secluded courtyard half an hour away from riding horses in the imperial city, a lotus rain dressed in white came here with a man wearing a felt hat behind him with a downcast expression, and watched his figure and steps , should be a person in his twilight years in his fifties.

He Yu led the man to the door, pushed the door open, and stood quietly outside the door, not intending to enter, and the man was not surprised, he walked in on his own, took off the felt hat on his head and put it on the table , if there are courtiers here, one person can recognize the true face of this person, Lu Shou.

"Lord Lu, what's your business here today?"

"I heard that the eldest grandson has gone to Goguryeo, which is a surprise!"

A voice came from inside the curtain, and Lu Shou was not as respectful as He Yu and the dead Guo Xian. He even frowned with a bit of condescension and sarcasm, and was not in a hurry to answer the question.

"Since you lost His Majesty's favor, you have become more and more fond of this kind of conspiracies~!"

"It seems that His Majesty was negligent in saving your life back then!"

The people inside the curtain didn't care about Lu Shou's strong sarcasm, maybe they cared and didn't dare to show it, but there was still a bit of tit-for-tat rebuttal in their words.

"Lord Lu is a self-proclaimed high-ranking official of the family, as for His Majesty's favor!"

There were bursts of sneering laughter from inside the house, obviously secretly pointing to the fact that the powerful officials of the aristocratic family are gone, and His Majesty hasn't done anything yet, it's just out of fear.

Lu Shou didn't bother to pay attention, and looked at the figure through the heavy curtain. It stands to reason that he and Lin Hao didn't have any deep hatred, but because he wanted to climb up, after colluding with the eldest grandson, he regarded Lin Hao as the biggest enemy. Thinking of this person dancing and kowtowing in front of His Majesty in order to survive, Lu Shou felt relieved.

What an out-and-out lunatic and treacherous minister.

"The news came from the palace yesterday that after a secret meeting with His Majesty, Cheng Yaojin went to Jiannan Road overnight!"

silence.

The person inside the curtain seemed to be thinking about this name that was about to be forgotten. After a while, a sneer came out of the curtain.

"Don't worry about it, no matter what you do now, it won't help!"

"Jiannan Dao cannot escape from this calamity. Once Lin Hao dies, I will be able to return to His Majesty's side!"

Lu Shou was not surprised by this, since he said so, there is no reason to continue, this person is not as good as Mr. Changsun in terms of temple party disputes, and in terms of conspiracy behind the scenes and biting people, the person inside the curtain is definitely second to none.

"Lord Lu, don't forget the deal between us!"

Lu Shou squinted his eyes and looked around, but didn't speak. Now even though everyone was on the same boat, he still looked down on this person, more simply disdainful. After a strange sneer, he turned and left.

The man inside the curtain didn't let out the anger accumulated in his heart until the courtyard regained its calm. This also proved that he was not as good as a person who could take revenge on a gentleman, and it was not too late for ten years.

"Why are the ministers of the aristocratic family pretending to be noble!"

"Having fought a young man for so long!"

"Isn't he reduced to the same thing as me!"

"' 〃 Just wait until I return to His Majesty's side!"

"..."

The words became weaker and weaker, until finally it was hard to hear, and after a reflection, the person inside the curtain held a pen in his right hand and wrote a few words on a bamboo slip, and finally threw the bamboo slip out of the tent, laughing wildly.

He Yu, who walked into the room, picked up the bamboo slips with the words "Historical Records" engraved on the ground, and the words Lu Shou were written below the words Lu Shou, which recorded her life experience and official worship, and only a short line of comments was issued. small print.

"Those who are treacherous and evil, with vicious thoughts, are the criminals who thought they were messing up the Tang Dynasty!"

Jairus must be reported.

At this moment, Lin Hao didn't have the slightest awareness that his half body was in the center of the storm vortex, and he didn't know that he had been jointly deployed by many forces, and he wanted to get rid of it quickly.

Mr. Lin, who hurried (fortunately) from the county government to the mansion, only heard that a servant came to report that a general Cheng from Chang'an came to pay a visit to the young man with a letter written by Li Dingtian.

Lin Hao, who was vaguely uneasy and had a premonition that something bad was going on, stepped into the mansion with one foot, and saw Cheng Yaojin, who was dressed in a chicken nest head and was wolfing down a big pancake in his hand, standing there sluggishly like a starved ghost reincarnated , couldn't help swallowing.

The old and the young looked at each other across the door, staring at each other, almost falling down and crying, and finally saw Cheng Yaojin, the emperor of Jiannan Road, who had endured hardships for several days, almost turned into tears.

The violent storm didn't come to Jiannan Road, but a ruthless person who even Lin Hao can't help but sigh.  …

339: You boy, let me wait a long time for Cheng [full order]

Cheng Yaojin galloped all the way into Jiannan Road non-stop, and after inquiring about Lin Hao's mansion, he rushed to Lin's mansion, but was in vain.

Hearing from the maid that Mr. Lin was handling official business in the county government office, when he sent someone to report, Cheng Yaojin walked in unceremoniously and ordered his servants to bring a lot of food. From Border Gate to Chang'an, His Majesty gave him a cup of thirst-quenching herbal tea .

Although General Cheng didn't treat his stomach badly on the way, but the situation is urgent now, how can he enjoy his appetite, and when he arrives at the Lin Mansion, he can't let old Cheng wait.

Lin Hao calmed down and walked into the mansion. He didn't have much resistance to Cheng Yaojin's rude behavior. Although the two had never met, Cheng Tieniu was well-known. He didn't deliberately make things difficult, and with the tiger skin of Li Dingtian from the General Chamber of Commerce, he could be regarded as a visitor.

Seeing the young man in the light white robe, Lao Cheng put down the cake and clapped his hands, hurriedly and enthusiastically greeted him, with a sincere smile on his face that the elder hadn't seen for a long time, and the maid who didn't understand why thought it was a distant relative of the adult.

"Your boy is considered to be back, but let me wait for Lao Cheng!"

Lin Hao smiled, and was not in a hurry to answer, his heart was calm and calm. This is Cheng Yaojin's own careful thinking and temperament. He seems to be careless and can talk to anyone, but in fact he treats people he likes very much. It's hard to make others feel bad.

"General Cheng, what happened?"

No matter how Cheng Yaojin behaved, Lin Hao still had the courtesy he should have. When Cheng Yaojin, who nodded secretly, took out the letter written by His Majesty from his bosom, he stretched out his big hand and patted the young man on the shoulder.

"The specific matters are all in the letter, you read it before we talk about it!"

When Lin Hao opened the letter, Cheng Yaojin also took the opportunity to look at his expression changes and temperament. The young man in front of him was the most hated by the cartilage faction in the temple. Looking at it now, Lin Hao is not as good as the eldest grandson Wuji It's as unbearable as others say.

Cheng Yaojin restrained himself.

The length of the letter is not long, and the two pages of letter paper did not record too many shabby and polite contents. It came straight to the point and informed Lin Hao that the sweet potato issue of the General Chamber of Commerce had been implemented, but I couldn't get out of it because of some things, and apologized for not being able to visit Jiannan Road in person .

Lin Hao raised his eyebrows, and took down the first page of letter paper, stating that Goguryeo decided to attack the border of the Tang Dynasty and occupy the Central Plains, and the reason why the court and the Central Committee talked about it was from Jiannan Road, so Lin Hao should be more careful.

Apart from these two positions, there is no further text, and there is no words of Li Dingtian asking Jiannan Dao for help, and the simple words are as far as they can go.

"President Li, do you have any other words to explain?"

Lin Hao was a little surprised that Li Dingtian sent the letter, and he was also a little curious that the sender was Cheng Yaojin, but after thinking about it, since President Li and President Li claimed to have served as generals under Li Daozong, they let it go.

"President Li was busy consoling His Majesty with the military generals in the court, but not many words came out!"

"He just said that this matter should come to Jiannan Road, I hope you (afbe) be more careful, and think twice before acting!"

Before leaving, His Majesty did not give any other explanation except for leaving a cryptic sentence of unknown depth, so Cheng Yaojin would not make mistakes in such trivial matters.

Lin Hao squatted down with the letter in his hand, and leaned his head on his knees to meditate. No matter what Li Dingtian said, he was also a member of the royal family. Now that the border of the Tang Dynasty is being invaded by foreigners, no matter whether there is a possibility of defeating the opponent, the sword The towering tree in Nandao should never be let go.

With the human relationship established by the General Chamber of Commerce in Jiannan Road, as long as Li Dingtian said a few good words for Datang, let the emperor of Tang Dynasty provide supplies, half buy and half ask Jiannan Road to help, it is undoubtedly a better way at the moment, but now Strange silence.

"General Cheng will rest here for two days, and I will reply to a letter, please trouble General Cheng!"

Cheng Yaojin was noncommittal about this, anyway, the matter has been settled, and he can explain to His Majesty after returning to the palace, and he is not in a hurry, he will live in Guan County for two days, firstly to recuperate, and secondly, he can observe the court official Young people scolding.

After settling down Cheng Tieniu, who came from a long way, Lin Hao ran out of the mansion and rushed all the way to the county government. Since one person's head is not working well, let's think about it with a few more heads, and finally figure out the key points.

What kind of hidden meaning is contained in this, I am afraid that only the emperor of the Tang Dynasty who is far away in the Chang'an Palace can figure it out.

Li Shimin put his hands behind his back, stood outside the courtyard and sighed, the current situation has a feeling that one hair will affect the whole body, and the friendship with Jiannan Dao that has been accumulated with great difficulty is also one time less, he doesn't want the future between the two The time is just a money transaction of purely intersecting interests.

Of course, the deepest meaning is that he is the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, an emperor of the Central Plains who wants to compete with Jiannan Road for the hearts of the people and compete with Lin Hao for the hearts of the people after transformation.

A newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, Li Shimin, a golden dragon in the clouds, would be willing to lose to his opponent, the reason behind the dragon in Jiannan Road.  …

340: Surprise

Qin Qiong was ordered by His Majesty to lead [-] troops to the Tang Border Pass to prevent the foreign country Goguryeo in the east of the Central Plains from raiding the Central Plains.

This Tang general, who had the same surname as Qin Yuyan, but each had his own master, already felt a bit old-fashioned. Even if Qin Qiong didn't want to admit it to the current Tang army, he knew that it was no longer what it used to be.

Li Jing, the God of War, has a lot of spare energy, and now he is a little sick and troubled. Li Daozong has lost his vigor since the battle of Tuyuhun, and has become taciturn and ignores military affairs.

His Majesty doesn't trust Hou Junji, and there are fewer and fewer people around him. When Qin Qiong thought of the junior female general who also had the same surname Qin, he was a little unclear about why Jiannan Road was not my Tang Dynasty~ with emotion.

No matter how regrettable it is, he, a military general who has become more and more tired of temple battles, can only succumb to reality and ride his horse to fight at the border.

Full speed ahead!

When the army moved to the east, Changsun Wuji, who was stationed outside the pass to mediate, walked out of the tent and looked at the mountainous Goguryeo in the distance, wondering what was going on in his mind.

In the past few days, he has stayed in his tent in peace, like a mountain villager who doesn't care about world affairs, so people can't see anything tricky. After discussing it, but seeing that the lieutenant general's attitude was tepid, he saved his mind.

Anyway, when the war really started, it wasn't his eldest grandson who suffered the disaster, and the army in the rear would be coming soon after all. Changsun Wuji turned his head, stretched out his hand and stroked his chin beard, and the corner of his mouth smiled, looking a little confused.

As the night approached, when the sun was about to set, the two scouts from the Border Gate rushed to the Datang camp and fell to the ground with scars all over their bodies.

A few guards hurried forward, helped up the two wounded, worried, and quickly called the army doctor, only to hear the weak words of the two scouts.
