Tang Xuan

It has been a long time since the beginning of autumn, and the weather is getting colder.The camp in the east of the city became more and more organized, and the division of troops was carried out in an orderly manner.

Liu Quanying reined in his horse and stopped, took the list handed over by the clerk, and said to Lang Huai: "The Imperial Forest Army has 600 people, and they have chosen thousands of people. This has been a lot of twists and turns. I have to thank Duke Mu."

"Commander Liu sees you." Lang Huai clasped Chunjun around his waist, sat upright on Ta Yun, and said with a smile, "I'm also half of the Royal Forest Army, so how can I say it's troublesome? And this is the responsibility of the Ministry of War."

Not long after, a group of soldiers was brought to the school grounds by the school officials singing chant.Most of these soldiers have broad arms and round waists, and they are almost seven feet tall.Lang Huai's toes trembled slightly, and he moved half a horse forward.The school official also hurriedly stepped forward to hand over the document, and Lang Huai took it indifferently.

Calling troops on the battlefield, although not going to the battlefield, is enough to make many recruits excited.

What's more, when Duke Mu personally ordered soldiers?The legend of this young general has long been circulated among the [-] recruits. Everyone bravely wanted to enter the Imperial Forest Army or the military camp of the Four Towns of Anxi, so that they could get close to her.

600 people say more is not too much, and less is not too much.Lang Huai and Liu Quanying made a roll call and made a plan one by one, and finished the final matter of including this group of people into the Imperial Forest Army.After more than half an hour, Lang Huai's throat was completely hoarse, and it came to an end.

Tayun shook his tail restlessly, Lang Huai knew that it was tired of standing, so he patted its neck to appease it.Tao Jun took the water bag and was also pushed away by Lang Huai. Her cheeks were flushed with heat, and she still looked like a soldier.

"Speaking of which, we have been destined for several months." Lang Huai smiled and said, "I think before I went to the battlefield, I was far behind you."

Seeing everyone holding back their laughter, she simply lit a fire and said, "It's even difficult for me to carry a regulated gun."

Finally someone in the front row couldn't bear it anymore and laughed out loud.Another bold one simply asked: "Mu Gong, what should you do?"

Lang Huai's expression remained the same, "I was only 12 years old at the time, so what if I can't hold it?"

After saying some witty words, Lang Huaicai said seriously: "Speaking of which, the most elite army in the Tang Dynasty has always been led by the Imperial Forest Army. The Anxi Army is brave, but in terms of military discipline, there is no one around the Imperial Forest Army."

"In the army, orders and prohibitions are the most important thing. You have practiced under this officer for more than half a year. If someone forgets these four words in the future, violates military discipline, and will be punished by the Imperial Forest Army's military law, don't even think about finding someone to intercede!" Lang Huai took a final look. They said: "From now on, you are soldiers of the imperial forest. You must be loyal to His Majesty, with iron blood and loyalty. Commander Liu led you back to the camp today, and the last sentence I send you is the order and prohibition."

After Lang Huai finished speaking, handing over the documents in his hand to Liu Quanying means that he has nothing to do with these recruits at all.

Liu Quanying smiled and said: "Although they have entered the Imperial Forest Army, they have to be assigned to which guard they will be assigned by the commander-in-chief. But as far as I can see, this army is indeed the best in the past ten years. Most of them will be assigned to the Jinwu Guard."

Lang Huai waved his hand and said: "This has nothing to do with me. Commander Liu, it's getting late, and we still put the big things first. Huai Huai will be the host to treat you to a drink. It's a pity that we can't see each other again after a farewell to the Imperial Forest Army." .”

Liu Quanying responded with a smile, took the Tiger Talisman to confirm again, and took these people back to the prison guard's station under his command.Three days later, more than 300 of the [-] recruits entered the Jinwu Guard.Most of the rest are classified as prison guards, which can be regarded as a good future.

The Emperor Ming's decree has been issued, and these recruits have already begun to move out, and they have entered the frontier troops in various places one after another, or supplemented various channels.Among them, 3 people were assigned to the four towns of Anxi, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, they were brought by the Ministry of War and Wu Bing, the eldest son of Duke Lu's mansion, and handed over to Xue Hua.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Emperor Ming was a little absent-minded because of Li Yuan's fever.At the family banquet at night, Li Xun, Li Jin and Li Qianjun brought the princess and their children.Lang Huai also entered the palace to accompany him by order, and he was the only "man" with a foreign surname.

Ming Da hugged Li Tang, and talked with Lang Huai shoulder to shoulder.Lang Huai knew that she loved this niece very much, so he said, "Why don't you tell Your Highness to invite Tang'er to our house?"

Mingda squeezed her hand and said, "Are you going crazy? This is absolutely impossible."

Li Tang spoke more fluently, lying in Mingda's arms, said: "Little aunt, that!"

Mingda took the crispy cheese, broke off a small piece and fed it to her, and said with a smile, "Go, get a piece for your grandpa!"

Li Tang was ignorant, but she listened to Ming Da's words the most, and went to Ming Huang's seat with a plate.Emperor Ming didn't know what to think, his expression was dazed.Fortunately, there is such a small pistachio, which shows a little beauty.

Concubine Liang Gui only showed up for a moment today, and she left the table on the pretext of taking care of Li Yuan.Emperor Ming simply called his grandchildren to his side, and only chatted with them, and even sang a passage, which made the children laugh endlessly.

Halfway through the banquet, Li Qian stood up leisurely, and was led by the inner prisoner to go to the toilet.After leaving the Penglai Palace, Li Qian rewarded the little inner eunuch, and said with a smile: "I really can't drink anymore, and you can see that my sixth younger brother doesn't know how serious it is. This king just wandered around, sobered up before going back .Please help my father-in-law!"

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Your Highness, please, the little one is waiting for you here!"

Li Qian smiled slightly, adjusted his robe, and really went to the place where there were many trees with his hands behind his back.He walked into the forest, knowing that there was no one following him, he hurriedly quickened his pace, turned back to the east, and boarded a small boat that had been prepared.

This boat was used to transport melons and fruits for Emperor Ming's banquet today. Li Qian hid in the boat and escaped the investigation of the Imperial Forest Army.

The guard rowing the boat whispered: "Your Highness, we will wait for you here in two quarters."

Li Qian nodded and didn't say much.He had already taken off his splendid brocade robe, and put on the uniform of a captain's officer, and only added a cloak, and put the hood over his head.Even if he is so close, he will not be able to tell that this is Duke Huai.

There is a palace in the east of Taiye Pool, named Zhucui Palace.Empress Ming has always been dissatisfied with the position of concubine, this palace has not had a real mistress for many years.Concubine Liang likes to be near the water and look far away, and occasionally comes to stay for a few days, and Emperor Ming often comes to accompany her.

Concubine Liang Gui, who was supposed to return to Hanliang Hall, appeared here for some reason.Li Qian came walking, and the only two or three guards at the door pretended not to see him.When he walked into the room, Concubine Liang Gui was leaning on a man's arms, her eyes were red and she was crying.

"I don't understand this king!" Li Qian joked: "The noble concubine Yuan Shuai is about to get her wish. Could it be that she is crying with joy?"

Knowing Concubine Liang Gui's thin face, Yuan Xuanhong took a step to stand in front of her, and said indifferently: "Your Highness has something to say, don't be sarcastic." He has led bad people for many years, and he couldn't see that Li Qian was contemptuous of the two of them. .

Sure enough, Li Qian snorted, and said: "I have an appointment with you two today, just to ask you two about your future plans. Do you want to stay in the palace and continue to sneak around. Or..."

Yuan Xuanhong said: "Your Highness, the two of us will naturally leave this place of right and wrong, and stop worrying you."

Li Qian nodded and said, "But once Yuan Shuai leaves, won't bad people make trouble?"

Yuan Xuanhong shook his head, "In the past few years, except for the chief official Lang Shixuan who can't move, the rest of the places have already changed according to His Highness's wishes, so why should His Highness be suspicious?"

After Yuan Xuanhong finished speaking, he took out an iron seal from his bosom, and said: "Your Highness, this seal is a seal cast when Emperor Taizong first set up bad people. Bad people in the world, whoever sees this seal must not disobey the order." He said , knelt down on one knee and said: "The minister is willing to assist His Highness to achieve immortal achievements, first use this seal to show loyalty!"

Li Qian was also polite, took it from the palm of his hand, and carefully put it in his arms.Yuan Xuanhong said: "I don't know what orders your Highness has?"

"Imperial Concubine, I would like to remind you that Li Yuan must be present at that time." Just after Li Qian finished speaking, Concubine Liang said, "No!"

"Don't worry, I just want to use his words to take Hang'er away. After all, I only have this son now, and I don't want him to take risks easily." Li Qian shook his head and said: "He What is your identity? You have nothing to worry about being able to be with this king's son!"

Concubine Liang showed pain on her face, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you."

"Bengong?" Li Qian seemed to have heard a big joke, and said, "Your lady, your real name doesn't match your reality!"

Yuan Xuanhong frowned, and finally endured it.Concubine Liang had just entered the palace, and he fell in love at first sight.But this is the woman of the Tang Emperor, so he can only watch from afar.Watching her gain favor step by step, becoming the most favored woman of Emperor Ming after the death of Empress Jiang.Seeing that she and Emperor Ming seemed to be in harmony, but also saw that she was lonely in her boudoir, and she actually didn't want to enter the palace.

Watching along the way, at some point, the noble concubine of the dynasty also noticed Yuan Xuanhong who was very important beside Emperor Ming—he was past his age, but he was full of energy, and compared to the aging Emperor Ming, he was much more graceful.

A woman's intuition made her notice Yuan Xuanhong's sideways glance and infatuation towards her.

That day, Emperor Ming got drunk and took a rest early.Yuan Xuanhong was dressed in a black Hu suit, and he had come to report something, but he found that Emperor Ming was already soundly asleep.After Lu Youlin sent Yuan Xuanhong away, he rested on the slum in the side hall, but he didn't expect that this Yuan Shuai had extraordinary skills, and entered the Hanliang hall two steps ahead of him.

Concubine Liang Gui wanted to refuse to return the welcome, but Yuan Xuanhong was confused for a while, so he made Yan Hao, but Li Qian's people took the evidence and threatened them both.

Thinking of these old events, Yuan Xuanhong only felt that everything was a calculation that Li Qian had expected.But he was dull all his life, but he fell in love with Concubine Liang Gui, so he could only let Li Qian lead him by the nose, making a wrong step, and there was no possibility of turning back.

Li Qian took the seal and left proudly.He came to the water's edge according to the agreed time, and still hid in the boat.Not long after, His Highness Duke Huai appeared from the forest in bright clothes, and his complexion really improved a lot.

"It's convenient for you to trouble me." Li Qian made the little eunuch smile, and bowed and led him back to the Penglai Hall.

Li Jin was already drunk, lying on the table and sleeping soundly.Ming Da crouched in Lang's arms, the young couple didn't know what to say, they always made people blush.Li Xun was in better health and could not bear the strength of alcohol, so he accompanied Emperor Ming to tease a few children.Among them, Li Hang was the youngest and had to be hugged by the princess, but his face was full of childishness, but he was the most innocent.

Li Qian pretended to be drunk and leaned aside.His son is naturally loved, but he must not become a stumbling block on the road to succession.

Now it's just one more look.It doesn't matter whether Li Yuan is from Emperor Ming, but if he has doubts, he can't stay.
