Liu Luogu was not a fool, he immediately realized that the barbecue meat he had just eaten in his stomach was the divine bird used to sacrifice to the emperor, and he was so hungry just now that he actually forgot that what he ate in his mouth was the taste of eagle meat.
"Ang Li, you actually dare to eat the divine bird, you ...... I'm not done with you. ”
Liu Luogu gasped and pointed at the backs of Li An and his party, his expression extremely distorted.
A Pinglu soldier hurriedly ran over and reported: "Mr. Liu, my subordinates just discovered that there are some blood stains in Guan Shenniao's cage. ”
When Liu Luogu heard this, he immediately became more sure of his guess, the divine bird he was responsible for offering to the emperor was indeed secretly eaten by Li An and his gang, and he himself tasted a few bites.
At this moment, his expression was a little lost, although this flat-haired beast was just an eagle, but it was a one-in-a-million best Haidongqing, a treasure that could not be found, and it was not so easy to catch another one.
An Lushan trusted him so much that he handed over this beautiful task to him, but he completely messed up, which made him very worried and worried, and he didn't know how to explain it to An Lushan.
Regret, anxiety, helplessness, hatred, loss, a variety of moods blended together, and Liu Luogu was tortured and sweaty, and he didn't know what to do next.
At this time, he still has four carts of tribute in his hand, whether to bring it back to Yingzhou by the original way, or to the current emperor, if it is brought back by the original way, he must not be scolded to death by An Lushan, but if it is dedicated to the emperor, the gift list can be written clearly, the core tribute is this superb Hai Dongqing, if this is missing, how to explain, he has enough evidence to prove that the divine bird was eaten by Li An, even if it can be proved, his charge of poor protection is unshirkable.
Liu Luogu thought about it for a long time and decided to lead the men and horses to continue to the capital, Li An made him feel bad, and he couldn't let Li An feel better.
#####
After leaving Tongguan, the next stop of Li An and his party was Huazhou City, which was dozens of miles away, and if they wanted to reach Huazhou City before dark, they had to speed up their march.
Li An is still taking Kunxiong and Feiyu to open the way in front of him, and hand over the team to Zhang Guangsheng to be responsible, this little soldier who was born as a scout, is thoughtful, and does things without leakage, in these days, the team is well organized, so that Li An is greatly appreciated, such a thousand miles of horses, just one Bole, and Li An, who is familiar with history, obviously meets the conditions for being Bole.
"Big brother, you said that Liu Luogu, would you guess that we ate that flat-haired beast."
Li Kunxiong asked with a smile.
Li An smiled lightly: "You still have to guess, you still have that beast's hair stuck to your mouth?" ”
When Kunxiong and Feiyu heard this, they subconsciously touched their lips, and immediately laughed, Li An was teasing them.
However, they also know that Liu Luogu is not a fool, and they must be able to guess that they did it, but Liu Luogu can't get the evidence, so he can only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, who made him so arrogant before and let his subordinates make trouble?
Thinking of Liu Luogu's painful appearance, everyone felt very happy, more comfortable than holding the delicate handsome little lady in her arms.
The procession marched quickly, entering Huazhou City before closing the city gate in the evening, and on the next two days, the group passed through Weinan City and Xinfeng City, and arrived in the capital Chang'an on the third day.
Lema stood on the top of a hill, Li An couldn't believe his eyes, more than ten miles ahead, a huge city stood there.
The scale of this city is huge, far beyond Li An's imagination, along the way, they passed through a large number of cities, but compared to the Chang'an City in front of them, it is really insignificant.
'Nine days open the palace, and all the nations are clothed and crowned. Only the capital of the Tang Empire can have such grandeur and prestige. ’
Li An couldn't help but sigh in his heart, proud that he could see the grandeur of Chang'an City.
Kunxiong, Feiyu and the others behind him also widened their eyes in surprise, for fear of missing such a magnificent scene.
"Li Shaolang, there is Chang'an City ahead."
At some point, Yue'er walked to her side.
Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked sideways at Yue'er: "Little Yue'er, where do you live?" Can you see it here? ”
Yue'er opened her eyes wide, looked carefully for a long time, shook her head and said, "It's too far away, you can't see it at all, but it's probably in that location." ”
Li An looked in the direction that Yue'er pointed and found a large number of palaces, and couldn't help but be surprised, could it be that Yue'er lived in the palace.
"Li Shaolang, look, the northernmost is the Daming Palace, a pool of water in the palace is the Taiye Pool, the middle of the north is the Taiji Palace, and the nearest high-rise building to us is the Calyx Xianghui Building, where is the Xingqing Palace, most of His Majesty lives there, my home is in Yongxingfang, which is very close to these three palaces, and the high tower in the south is the Big Wild Goose Pagoda of the Great Ci'en Temple, and the southeast is the Qujiang Pond, when the flowers bloom in spring, it is beautiful there."
Yue'er is extremely familiar with Chang'an City, and it seems effortless to introduce it.
Li An nodded lightly, he didn't know much about Yongxingfang, but he knew that the fang, which was located in the three palaces of the Tang Dynasty, must have people with very unusual identities, so it would be very convenient to enter and exit the palace, and people with low status lived in some fang markets in the south, so it could also be seen that Yue'er's background was not simple.
"Yue'er little lady, when the spring flowers bloom after the New Year, let's go to Qujiang Pond to enjoy the flowers together, okay?"
With a little caution, Li Ang sincerely invited.
Yue'er was coldly asked by Ang Lee, and her heart became nervous, she naturally hoped that she could enjoy the flowers in Qujiangchi with a handsome gentleman like Ang Lee, but she was a little lady after all, how could she say these words at will? Although the Tang Dynasty is open, it is still not comparable to the West in later generations, and women are generally more reserved.
Looking at the flush on Yue'er's neck, Li An smiled indifferently, the reason why he made the invitation was to be idle and bored, to tease the characteristic little lady beside him, and secondly, to get closer to the relationship and provide convenience for meeting the big man behind Yue'er in the future, after all, if you want to make a splash in the Tang Dynasty, it is not enough to rely on warriors like Kunxiong and Feiyu, but also need the support of many big people like Wang Zhongsi.
At this time, it is a cold winter, and there are still many months before the flowers bloom in the coming year, and it is estimated that Yue'er will have forgotten about this matter by then, but Li An's purpose of getting closer to the relationship can be achieved immediately.
Yue'er looked shy, and glanced sideways at Li An: "Li Shaolang, it's still early, let's wait until the flowers bloom next year, right?" ”
From Yue'er's shy expression, Li An could already see that this little lady was completely willing to accompany her to Qujiang Pond to enjoy the flowers, and she couldn't wait to agree, but she was more reserved and embarrassed to agree.
This little lady is serious, if she does not invite her when the flowers bloom next year, will she be very angry, or very sad. ’
Ang Lee shook his head slightly, feeling as if he had played too big, and there is a saying that 'if you don't like it, don't give people hope.' Otherwise, when hope is lost, it will make people very sad and even hateful.
However, the words that go out are the water that is spilled, and it is impossible to take it back, Li Anxin is horizontal, it's a big deal to accompany her to enjoy the flowers in the spring of next year, maybe you can also rub some oil by the way, take advantage of a little bit or something, hehe.
"Li Shaolang, what are you laughing at?"
Yue'er's cute eyes were full of doubts.
Li An took a step forward and looked at Yue'er's eyes: "At the next thought, I suddenly felt happy to be able to stroll and enjoy the flowers by the Qujiang Pond with Yue'er Niang, and I laughed unconsciously, rude, rude." ”
Yue'er's eyes flashed with joy, the corners of her mouth smiled, revealing a unique flavor of pink tooth flowers, and her voice was soft: "Li Shaolang, I'll go back." With that, he trotted away.
Not far from the bottom of the hill are more than 100 men and horses under Li An's command, who are stopping in place to rest at the moment, ready to set off into Chang'an City at any time.
Li An was shocked by the spirit of Chang'an City, and admired the top of the hill for half an hour, until Zhang Guangsheng came to urge for the third time, and then walked down the top of the mountain unsatisfied, and led the team to the southwest, preparing to enter the city through the Mingde Gate directly south of Chang'an City.
Outside the Mingde Gate, there was a long queue, and the soldiers guarding the city gate were seriously searching the salutes of passers-by, after all, this is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, and safety is particularly important.
Li An jumped off the war horse, looked up at the three big characters of 'Mingde Gate' on the high ground in front of him, his heart was quite complicated, he entered the capital of the Tang Dynasty after passing this gate, and it is really difficult to say what his fate will be in the future.
"Yue'er, it's Yue'er, what about Madame?"
On the side of the gate, an old man in his fifties ran over with a smile.
"Fu Bo, my aunt is in the carriage behind."
The old man nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, it's good to come back, hey, what is this?" ”
He obviously saw that the team escorting Yue'er's mother and daughter was too different from the previous departure, and most of them didn't know each other, especially Li An, who was majestic, which made him involuntarily a little scared.
Yue'er didn't hide it, she told her about the robbery of the bandits, and praised Li An's bravery, which saved their mother and son's lives.
Only then did the old man know that Li An and the others in front of him were the life-saving benefactors of Yue'er's mother and daughter, and immediately saluted: "Li Shaolang saved my wife and Yue'er, please be blessed with high blessings." ”
Li An hurriedly returned the salute: "Fu Bo is polite, as a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, how can he sit idly by and watch when he sees the thieves doing evil." ”
A righteous and awe-inspiring bearing made Fu Bo greatly admired, and nodded again and again.
"By the way, Fubo, my father is still in the palace or at home."
Gao Fu said softly: "A few days ago, the general accompanied His Majesty to the Hot Spring Palace, and he has not returned to Beijing yet. ”
When Li An heard this, he was very curious, this general can accompany Li Longji to the Hot Spring Palace to take a bath, and his status is definitely not low, but who is he?
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, everybody."
At this moment, hundreds of Yulin soldiers rushed out from within the Mingde Gate.
