The romantic of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 777 Past

On May 18 of the first year, the army against the Turks took Pei Xingjian as the commander-in-chief and Xue Rengui as the deputy commander. 100,000 soldiers left Beijing and rushed to Shuozhou. Prince Li Xian was ordered to send hundreds of officials to the suburbs. On May 20, the emperor issued an edict to move Luoyang, and a hundred officials accompanied him. After nearly a month, he arrived at Luoyang Palace on June 13.

On June 21, all kinds of Tang troops met in Shuozhou, with a total strength of more than 357,000 people, which was the most gathered troops of the Tang Dynasty in recent years. However, the first battle was unfavorable. The army that was ordered to escort grain and grass to the Duhufu was attacked. Two thousand elites were annihilated and the food and grass were lost. The news reached Luoyang. The emperor was furious and reprimand reprimanded them. And ordered Pei Xingjian to march into the army immediately, and there should be no mistake! Pei Xingjian asked for his guilt, but he did not immediately enter the army. Instead, he said that the thieves had not yet gathered. At this time, although he could defeat the thieves, he could not gather and annihilate most of the Turks in the war. After repeated deliberations, the emperor allowed Pei Xingjian's invitation, and the front-line war fell into a stalemate. He was increasingly trapped by the besieged Xiao Siye, and the urgent documents were constantly sent to In Luoyang City.

The battle on the front line was not very smooth. Gao Zong was very upset. Despite the advice of the courtiers, he supported the sick body and planned heavy logistics day and night. He neither refused to entrust all kinds of military and politics to the prince or decentralize power to the military queen. His already weak body and bones were even more haggard. Gao Zong insisted on not being tight, but made the court three points - the military and political Gao Zong himself controlled it, while the ordinary court affairs were controlled by the military queen. As for the important affairs of each state, they were all handled by Donggong, which was also an alternative three-legged tripod.

June is coming to an end, and the summer harvest has passed. The summary of all states has already reached the East Palace. As usual, it is a bumper harvest. Only a few dozen states have a slight poor harvest due to the climate. For the Tang Dynasty as a whole, it does not have much impact. The overall situation has been determined, and the exchange of official documents such as branches is not important. Li Xian is very relieved to hand it over. The officials of the East Palace, headed by Zhang Jianzhi, disguised themselves and led Li Yaodong and several other confidants to Xiyuan, intending to take advantage of the lack of things to relax.

Xiyuan, built during the Sui Daye period, is a royal garden built by Emperor Yang of the Sui when he built the eastern capital Luoyang. During the Sui Dynasty, also known as Huitong Garden, it is one of the most gorgeous gardens in China's history. It reaches Pishan in the north, Yiqi in the south, and extends to today's Xin'an territory in the west. It is surrounded by more than 200 miles. In the Xiyuan, the strange mountains and rivers are reflected together. Interesting; pavilions and pavilions are placed in it by coincidence; the flowing water is winding, and the green forest is lush; the hall is built with canals, like the scales of dragons, like the sky, which is really a beautiful place. By the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, there were many new pavilions, and the three generations of emperors of the Tang Dynasty lingered here. Xiyuan was not open to the public. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in the fourth year of Xianqing, the Empress Wu asked to open the garden for hundreds of officials. Gao Zong approved it, so it became a fixed rule. However, those who are not above the five officials are still not allowed to enter it.

The scenery of Xiyuan is solid and beautiful, but it is the peony as the most. When the peony flowers are withered and the peony will wither, there is no one in Xiyuan, but Li Xian does not care. He just came to relax. He is not too particular about whether to see the flowers or not. After entering Xiyuan, he has no purpose. After retreating Li Yaodong and others. , that is, walking alone along the grass by the Shenque Lake, but the mind is obviously not on the scenery. Naturally, this walk is more and more annoying.

The court is no longer the court in the previous life. Although the Empress Wu is still very powerful, it is far from the power. In terms of the control of the Tang Dynasty, Li Xian is not under it. The latent power is even higher than the martial arts queen, but at the same time, it was originally The bedridden Gao Zong was not as paralyzed as in his previous life, but still had the spare capacity to control the armaments. That's all. The problem is that Gao Zong's suspicion of Li Xian is getting stronger and stronger. Whether it is the indifference to the soldiers in Hexi or moving to Luoyang this time, all of them are on guard against Li Xian. This situation is like this. If it continues, I'm afraid that the father and son will be unavoidable. How can Li Xian not be upset?

"Ye'er, don't run, don't run, be careful of falling..."

Just as Li Xian walked aimlessly at will, a woman's voice sounded faintly not far away. The sound seemed to be familiar, but Li Xian was upset and did not think about it carefully, let alone pay attention to it. He still lowered his head and walked slowly, but he did not want to be in a trance and suddenly noticed someone. He is bumping into himself.

"Hmm?"

As one of the most master masters in the world, even if Li Xian is in a trance, he can't get close to anyone. Although the identity of the comer has not been identified, Li Xian's body has naturally turned sideways, giving way to the person who came lightly. Looking at it again, the person who rushed over suddenly He couldn't stop falling to the ground, and he was a three- or four-year-old child.

"Wow..."

When the little guy rushed fast, he was suddenly shaken by Li Xian, and his center of gravity lost his balance and fell to the ground heavily. Under this pain, he suddenly cried with a runny nose and tears.

Although he was interrupted by this sudden child, it is not easy to lose his temper with an ignorant child. Besides, with the pitiful appearance of the little guy, Li Xian can't say or scold again. Of course, at a time when he was extremely upset, Li Xian did not have the leisure to coax the little guy happy, but frowned slightly. He immediately planned to leave, but before his feet were raised, the afterglow of the corners of his eyes swept over a young woman who was rushing over. Her pupils suddenly shrank, and she couldn't help staying on the spot.

"Ye'er, Ye'er, are you hurt? Come on, mother, look..."

The young woman didn't go to see Li Xian, who was dumbfounded. She hurried to the crying child, squatted down, reached out and took the little guy into her arms, and coaxed him in a hurry.

It's her, it's really her! Ha ha, the world is too small!

The young woman didn't pay attention to Li Xian, but Li Xian recognized who the woman was at a glance - Wei Xianger, Queen Wei in her previous life!

The 30-year-old couple said that it was naturally impossible without feelings, but love and hate were intertwined. In the previous life, without the help of Empress Wei, Li Xian may not be able to survive the difficult years of exile. But if it hadn't been for Queen Wei's vicious hand, Li Xian would not have died in middle age. At this time, people would have lived. In front of his eyes, Li Xian's heart was really mixed, and for a moment, he didn't know what to say.

"This gentleman, please, my family is the inner room of the history of Weizhou. If there is any offense to the child, please forgive me."

Just when Li Xian was stunned, Wei Xianger had coaxed the crying child and stood up. Liu Ye raised her eyebrows and glanced at Li Xian. She seemed to apologize, but in fact, she moved out of her own origin to suppress Li Xian. There is no doubt that the ordinary clothes Li Xian wore was actually regarded as Wei Xianger. People have seen it.

Sure enough, it's still so domineering!

Li Xian really knows Wei Xianger's character too well. At this time, he couldn't help laughing.

"Hmm?"

Wei Xianger is not a master who is willing to suffer losses. At this time, Li Xian didn't answer and laughed, he was angry. His pretty face was rigid, and he was about to start.

"Your Highness."

Li Yaodong and others bear the heavy responsibility of protecting Li Xian, and they dare not leave too far. At this moment, when they saw something, they had already gathered around.

"Your Highness? You are..."

As soon as she heard that someone called Li Xian His Royal Highness, Wei Xianger was dumbfounded. How dare she lose her temper again? She exclaimed in disbelief.

" Return to the palace!"

The past has passed. Even if these things are absolutely unforgettable for Li Xian, it is not in the present world. Li Xian will not have the idea of revenge, nor does he have the idea of revisiting his old dream. At the same time, he does not want to have the slightest relationship with Wei Xianger. He doesn't want to say more. As soon as he turns around, he strides. He walked in the direction of the door. Seeing this, Li Yaodong and others did not dare to neglect him and followed Li Xian closely.

"Ah..."

Wei Xianger couldn't figure out the situation at all. It was not until Li Xian and others had gone far away that she came to her senses. After a long time of fear, she couldn't help exclaiming. How dare she dare to delay more in place. She picked up her son and fled to where her family was in a panic...

Zhuque Pavilion, an attic in the East Palace of Luoyang Palace, has a three-story wooden structure. It is located on the edge of the back garden. It stands in the pond. It is midsummer approaching. The lotus flowers are full of the pond, and the fragrance is refreshing. What's more, the breeze is light, the leaves are low and the flowers are blooming, dragonflies are dancing, and the colorful butterflies are hovering. The scenery is beautiful, just sitting in the window. The previous beauty obviously had no intention to appreciate it. She frowned slightly, looked lonely and sad, and her red lips gently opened, and a sad and lingering poem had come out.

"At the beginning of the cave under the leaf, I miss you for more than ten thousand miles. The fragrance of dew was cold, and the moon fell and the screen was empty. If you want to play Jiangnan Song, you will be greedy for thistle book. There is no other intention in the book, but I have been away for a long time.

The beautiful woman chanted, and the tears came out of her eyes uncontrollably. She looked at the direction of the Ganlu Hall with dim tears and looked at it obsessively. She let the tears slide through her jade-like face and dripped her clothes half wet, but she forgot to wipe it.

This beautiful woman is none other than Shangguan Wan'er, who has reached the age of eighteen. Since she was not one year old, she was saved by Li Xian. Now, it has been 18 years. The original baby has already become a beautiful girl. According to the practice of this era, she has already passed the age of leaving the pavilion, but she is alone in the empty pavilion and complains. Ziai is inevitable, but this kind of thought does not dare to talk to others. Even the closest maid is the same, and she can only bear such sadness and suffering alone.

"Bang Dang!"

Just when Shangguan Wan'er was silently sad, the closed door was suddenly knocked open and there was a muffled sound, which made Shangguan Waner suddenly wake up. Looking back, her body was shocked, and she was already crazy on the spot...
