Sha Po Lang

Li Feng shook his whole body, Chang Geng watched him fall down on the throne of the Golden Palace with a blank face, a kind of cruel pleasure suddenly rose beyond reason, but he treated himself very harshly, just for a moment, he didn't move He pinched his palm sensually, and suppressed the bloodthirsty pleasure - he knew that it was Ur's fault, not his original intention.

Chang Geng said insincerely, "Brother Huang, take care."

It seemed that he wasn't the one who said "I'm going to kill Li Feng" behind the scenes.

When King Yanbei made such a sound, the dumbfounded civil and military officials in the main hall immediately reacted, and they all followed suit: "Your Majesty, take care."

Li Feng's eyes slowly fell on Chang Geng - nominally, this is his only younger brother, but he doesn't often notice him, since the Fourth Highness Li Min was named king, he hardly appeared in the court hall. He didn't make much effort to make friends with courtiers, and he didn't even take advantage of Gu Yun's east wind to chat with generals. He only occasionally chatted about poetry and books with a few poor scholars.

Chang Geng didn't seem to notice his gaze at all, and said without changing his expression: "General Zhao died for his country, the East China Sea has no barriers, and foreigners can go straight to Dagu Port as soon as they turn north. Brother Huang, please get rid of distracting thoughts and make a decision early."

Li Feng didn't know, but his heart was in a mess and he couldn't speak for a while.

At this time, Uncle Wang Guo, who had been tormented by the rumors in the past few days, took a look at the emperor's face, and boldly said: "Your Majesty, there is only one North Camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and the surrounding area is the hinterland of the plain. Fang's troops are definitely insufficient. Furthermore, the matter of Tan Hongfei's rebellion is still uncertain, and there is almost no one in the North Camp. If all the troops in the south of the Yangtze River are wiped out, will the North Camp be able to do it? Who can protect the safety of the imperial city? Well, why not...uh..."

Wang Bao didn't finish his sentence, because the eyes of all the generals in the hall were fixed on him like white arrows.

This old guy hasn't wiped his butt clean yet, he's a little turbulent, and he dares to persuade the emperor to move the capital - if it weren't for the external and internal troubles, everyone might have the desire to share him and eat him.

Wang Bao swallowed despondently, bent over and dared not get up.

Li Feng's expression was uncertain, and he was silent for a moment. He put Uncle Wang Guo aside, and said: "Let Officer Tan Hongfei reinstate his post, and give him a chance to commit crimes and make meritorious deeds... I called you here to discuss matters, whoever talks nonsense, Just get out of here!"

In his desperation, the emperor even yelled foul language in the market, the whole hall fell silent, and Wang Bao's face turned red and white.

Li Feng turned to the Minister of the Ministry of War with a little irritability: "Hu Aiqing, you hold the Ministry of War in your hand and hold the order to beat the drums, you say."

Minister of the Ministry of War was born with a vegetable-colored face and two feet long, and his name "Hu Guang" sounded a bit like "hugua", so some people called him "Hugua Shangshu" in private.

When Hugua wrote a letter and heard Li Feng's words, her face was full of blisters, and she became a bitter gourd—the drumming order was issued by the Ministry of War in name, but did the Ministry of War dare to issue it casually?He is a pen in the emperor's hand, does the pen dare to have an idea?

Hu Guang wiped off his cold sweat, and spoke righteously with little confidence: "Uh... Your Majesty is right, Gyeonggi is the entrustment of our Liang Guozuo, and it is also the place that all people yearn for, how can we let foreigners break in? How decent! Even if we still have one soldier and one soldier, we must fight to the death, so if we retreat now, wouldn't it shake the morale of the army?"

Li Feng was really impatient to listen to his nonsense, so he interrupted him and said, "I'll let you tell me how to fight!"

Hu Guang: "..."

Everyone was glaring at Wang Bao, but Wang Bao was right. If the commanders of the Jiangnan navy had died for their country, who would be the general in the East China Sea?The group of flood dragons is broken, how to mobilize troops?

In case foreigners go north, how many rounds of artillery can the Beidaying and Yulin Army hold back?

From a certain level, Wang Bao was considered courageous, at least he told the truth that no one dared to tell.

Hu Guang suddenly turned into a rotten bitter gourd, and the cold sweat pouring out of his head was like rancid juice.

At this moment, Chang Geng suddenly made a sound.

The young King Yanbei stepped forward and said, "Brother, would you like to listen to me?"

Hu Guang looked at Chang Geng with grateful eyes, and Chang Geng smiled at him in a gentle manner: "Brother, let us calm down first, the flood is hard to recover, and people cannot be resurrected after death. The plight of the four borders has become a fait accompli, and it is useless to argue and get angry. Since you are in a mess, it is better to think about what else you can make up for."

He probably had been with the monk for a long time, and he didn't have a trace of fireworks on his body. He stood in front of the temple like a jade tree facing the wind, and it was so quiet that the surging anger could not help but subside with him.

Li Feng secretly let out a breath, waved his hands and said, "Say it."

Chang Geng: "Right now, the Central Plains is on fire. The soldiers and horses have been mobilized, but the food and grass have not been delivered. It is inevitable that there will be another shortage of supplies. I ask the emperor to open the treasury and release all the Ziliujin. This is one of them."

"Yes, you reminded me," Li Feng turned to the household department, "immediately order someone to coordinate..."

"Brother Huang," Chang Geng interrupted him calmly, "I'm talking about delegating all of them——During the extraordinary period, the drumming order has become a constraint, and the generals are still in shackles. Do you want to tie them up?" Going to the battlefield?"

It would be completely offensive for anyone to say this, but for some reason, when it was said from the mouth of King Yanbei, people couldn't get angry.

Hu Guang, who was left aside just now, hurriedly said: "The minister seconded the proposal."

Before Li Feng could open his mouth, the household department had already exploded, and the servant of the household department said loudly: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible. Delegating Ziliujin at this time is really urgent, but what I say is not pleasant, if it takes a long time, Today's life is over, what will we do in the future? Do you have enough food?"

The commander of the Imperial Forest Army probably really wanted to grab the head of the servant, and control the water in it, and retorted in court: "The thieves and bandits have already attacked the door, and you adults are still living life with a mind full of calculations. The last general is really open!" I've seen my vision——Your Majesty, the urgent need is puzzling, what are we talking about in the long run? In case the four realms are trapped to death, it won't last long just by digging the Ziliu Gold Mine with three melons and two jujubes in the territory. Get up!"

Hu Guangsheng seemed to be afraid that he would not be able to get in the conversation, and blushed and shouted thickly: "Second minister!"

Before Chang Geng could say a word about how to retreat from the enemy, he started a big quarrel, but he himself remained silent, and stood patiently aside, waiting for their quarrel to come to a conclusion.

Li Feng's brain was about to burst, and suddenly he felt that all the "pillars" of his family were staring at the trivial things of his one-third-acre land, and the top and bottom patterns combined were not as big as a bowl. Present a table of new cuisines that are majestic and magnificent like splendid rivers and mountains.

"Enough!" Li Feng shouted loudly.

There was a silence around, Chang Geng answered the words in a timely manner: "I haven't finished my words yet, secondly, the emperor brother must be prepared to shrink the troops."

As soon as this remark came out, the officials were in an uproar again, and the wrath of the emperor could not suppress the uproar below, and several elders seemed to be about to hit the pillar with their heads.

The corners of Li Feng's eyes twitched, and his anger rushed to his throat. He barely suppressed it and didn't attack Chang Geng. He frowned as if he was holding his breath, and warned in a low voice: "Amin, you have to think about something before you say it. The country is passed into my hands, not for me to cede land to feed tigers."

Chang Geng said without changing his face: "My brother wants to ask the emperor to touch his pocket. How much territory can I support with the power of the whole country? This is not cutting land to feed tigers, but a strong man cutting off his wrists. When cutting, you must not stop. I'm afraid we'll have to wait until the poisoning is deep and the whole territory is beaten to pieces by foreigners."

His flat tone like reciting the Analects of Confucius was like a basin of cold water poured on Li Feng's head mercilessly.

Chang Geng didn't look up at the emperor's face, and continued: "Thirdly, Lord Wang is right. Right now there is the Xuantieying camp in the northwest. Even though they have suffered heavy losses, they can still persist. What is imminent is the East China Sea mutiny. Once the foreigners go north, the North Camp The strength of the battle is worrying, and the reinforcements from far and near are being restrained, and they may not arrive in time, what will the emperor plan to do then?"

Li Feng was forced to be ten years old by his words in an instant, and after a long time of depression, he finally said: "Xuanzhi... go and invite the emperor."

When Chang Geng heard this decree, he didn't bat an eye, neither joy nor resentment, as if everything was due and reasonable.

Zhu Xiaozu responded with a loud voice, and was about to go, but Chang Geng suddenly reminded him: "Your Majesty, the Heavenly Prison will only send Eunuch Zhu to proclaim the decree, which is child's play."

He had already instinctively distrusted any servants around Li Feng, including this person who had been secretly helping Gu Yun in name.

Li Feng said weakly: "When did you still care about these vain courtesy——Jiang Aiqing, please run for me."

Zhu Xiaojiao followed Jiang Chong with small steps, and couldn't help but glance at Chang Geng from afar.

He is an old man in the palace. There are countless princes and generals who are not familiar with the civil and military dynasties in Daliang today. Only this King Yanbei was strictly protected by Gu Yun in the Hou's mansion since he was a child. Traveling around without doing business ", rarely showing up, except for being in the crowd to go to court for hearings, he doesn't even go to the palace alone, at most, he comes with Gu Yun to greet him during the New Year's and holidays... Everyone almost treats him Know nothing.

Knowing nothing means variables.

Jiang Chong and Zhu Xiaojiao went out of the palace and went straight to the prison without stopping. When they were about to arrive, Zhu Xiaojiao suddenly remembered and said with a choked voice: "No, Mr. Jiang, Lord Hou is going to the palace to face the saint, wearing a prison uniform What is it about? Or should I immediately ask someone to take a look at the newly made Yipinhou court clothes this year and go get one?"

Jiang Chongzheng was full of grief and indignation about the ruin of the country and his family, and suddenly the old eunuch choked back his soul, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Eunuch Zhu, when is it, you are still thinking about these trivial things, I..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he saw a person coming on horseback, and in a blink of an eye, he walked up to him, got off his horse and worshiped, it was Huo Dan, the general of the Hou family.

Huo Dan clenched his fists neatly: "Master Jiang, Eunuch Zhu, this villain is a slave of the Marquis of An Ding's mansion, and by the order of my Highness, I will present this to Lord Marquis."

As he spoke, his hands touched a set of court clothes and armor.

Jiang Chong's heart skipped a beat—Although King Yanbei was a meticulous person at first glance, was it so trivial?

Who is His Highness guarding against?

Gu Yun in the dungeon was just holding the fat mouse's tail to swing him boredly. When he realized that the wind behind him was in the wrong direction, he turned his head in some surprises, and vaguely saw three figures barging in from outside. Walking like the wind alone, it seems that he is still wearing court clothes.

Then, the prison door was locked wide open, and a special palace fragrance penetrated into Gu Yun's nose, and there was also a bit of the unique sandalwood fragrance from Li Feng's body.

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes, and recognized that fat man with big arms and round waists was Zhu Xiaojiao.

If he is going to be interrogated, there is absolutely no reason to send Zhu Xiaojiao directly, and it is impossible for a person like Li Feng to slap him in the face, arrest and release him day and night, then it can only be...

The smile on Gu Yun's face disappeared, and he thought, "What happened?"

Jiang Chong said something quickly, but Gu Yun couldn't hear it at all, he just caught a few words like "enemy attack... Zhao..." and was confused, so he could only pretend to be a mountain collapsed without knowing it. Moving steadily, he nodded his head in an unchanging manner.

Jiang Chong was infected by his calmness like a mountain, and his heart was settled for a moment. Anxiety and worries filled with hot and cold fell into his stomach, and tears almost fell down: "It is really a blessing for all people to have a pillar like Lord Hou in Daliang. .”

Gu Yun was full of bewilderment, thinking: "Mother, what are you talking about?"

On the surface, he just patted Mr. Jiang on the shoulder casually, and ordered swiftly, "Lead the way."

Fortunately, Huo Dan took a step forward at this time, and at the same time he presented his court clothes, he untied a jug from his waist: "Your Highness asked me to bring it to Lord Hou to drive away the cold."

As soon as Gu Yun opened the lid and smelled it, he knew it was the medicine, and immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and drank it all in one gulp.

Huo Dan helped him change his clothes in threes and fives, tidied up after all, the group went straight to the palace, and the deaf and blind Anding Hou made do with it, it was the first time that he hoped that the effect of the medicine would come soon.

It wasn't until they arrived at the base of the palace wall that Gu Yun's ears slowly regained consciousness like a pinprick.

He gestured to Huo Dan calmly, Huo Dan understood, hurriedly stepped forward, whispered in his ear, and repeated Jiang Chong's words in the prison.

Gu Yun didn't have time to finish listening, his head, which was already in pain, broke with a "buzz", a golden flower almost exploded in front of his eyes, he staggered in a panic, Huo Dan grabbed his arm : "Handsome!"

Jiang Chong was taken aback. He didn't know what kind of illness happened to Hou An Ding, who was so calm just now. Seeing that Gu Yun's face was so ugly that he looked like a dead person, he hurriedly asked nervously, "Master Hou, what's wrong?"

"More than half of the Xuantie camp was lost", "Northern border gates were lost one after another", "General Zhao was martyred", "The southwestern cargo area exploded"... Those three words turned into a cluster of deadly blades, which swirled into Gu Yun's body In his limbs and bones, there was a sharp stabbing pain in his chest, and a fishy sweetness welled up in his throat.

The blue veins on his forehead were slightly exposed, cold sweat dripped down his temples, and his eyes were a little loose. Although Jiang Chong knew that no one would dare to torture Andinghou even in the sky prison, he was still very frightened: "Mr. Are you ready? Do you want an official to call for a walking chariot? Where is the imperial doctor?"

Gu Yun's body shook slightly.

Jiang Chong: "Now the safety of Liang rests on Lord Hou's shoulders, you must not make any mistakes!"

These words flashed across Gu Yun's ears like thunder, and his three souls and seven souls that were about to fly away were shaken violently, and they were gathered back into the spine that pierced through the sky. Gu Yun closed his eyes and forcibly He swallowed a mouthful of blood.

After a pause, under Jiang Chong's terrified gaze, he laughed nonchalantly and said: "I haven't seen the sun for a few days, and I have a little headache-it's not a problem, it's an old problem."

With that said, Gu Yun lowered his head and slightly adjusted the light armor on his body, pulled his arm out of Huo Dan's hand, threw the gray-haired rat that had been nestled in his hand over, and said: "This is my death. Mouse brother, find something to eat for it, don't starve to death."

Huo Dan: "..."

After Gu Yun finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the palace.

At this moment in the Jinluan Hall, Chang Geng's few words sparked a melee. When Zhu Xiaojiao's high-pitched and sharp voice yelled "The Marquis of Anding enters the palace to see you", everyone was dumbfounded. There was a dead silence.

As soon as Gu Yun raised his head, he met Chang Geng's eyes, and the eyes of the two separated instantly. He had already seen the surge of wind and clouds in Chang Geng's eyes that could not be described in thousands of words.

Immediately, Gu Yun stepped forward to greet him as if no one else was around, as if he didn't come from the sky prison, but just had a late sleep in the Hou Mansion.

Li Feng immediately announced the dispersal of the court, and drove out the quarreling talkers and idiots, leaving only Gu Yun, Chang Geng and a group of generals to discuss and rectify the defense of the capital overnight.

Feng Hangong, who was introspective at home, had to go out of the mountain again. The entire Lingshu courtyard was brightly lit, and he worked overtime to sort out the existing war preparations in the capital.

After a whole day and night, Li Feng, who had dark circles under his eyes, didn't let them go until another fourth watch passed.

Before leaving, Li Feng stopped Gu Yun alone.

In the main hall, the left and right were screened back, and only one monarch and one minister looked at each other. Li Feng was silent for a long time, until the palace lantern felt the sunlight and jumped out. With a "click", Li Feng came back to his senses and looked at Gu Yun with a complicated expression. With a glance, he said vaguely: "...I have wronged the emperor."

Gu Yun was full of familiar scenes, and he could blurt out without even thinking about it.

Nonsense such as "thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the king" and "death in the community is nothing to be wronged" have been seamlessly connected under his glib tongue.

But suddenly, his tongue seemed to be stuck, and he couldn't speak after trying several times, so he smiled at Emperor Long'an.

The smile was indescribably stiff, looking a little embarrassed.

The two had nothing to say for a while, Li Feng sighed and waved his hands.

Gu Yun lowered his brows and closed his eyes, and retreated.
