Chapter 725: I can't help it in a hurry
Outside the city, Yang Ze was already lying on a leather cushion, and he was about to fall asleep in a daze. Yan Bing galloped too fast, he didn't bring any baggage, and naturally there was no tent to sleep in, even if he was the master of an army, but at this time he could only lie on the leather cushion to sleep.
At this time, the Yan soldier camp, the bonfire is everywhere, the Yan soldiers lie crookedly on the edge of the fire, snoring loudly, and the soldiers are tired, not only are they so, even the war horses are the same, the war horses galloped for a day, the horses are sweating profusely, except for a few soldiers who love horses very much, they will wipe the sweat of the horses, although most of the soldiers know that the war horses sweat so much, they may get sick tomorrow, but they can't take care of it, people are so tired that they can't open their eyes, they really can't take care of the horses.
The camp is relatively quiet, and there are only a few Bohai warriors on the periphery, which shows their toughness at this time, it really doesn't blow it, galloping for a day, only they can stand it, and looking at their appearance, it seems that if they run like this for a few more days, it doesn't seem to be good.
At this time, a Bohai warrior said: "Two horses came over there in Taiyuan City, and someone will send us a letter immediately!" ”
At this time, the night was dark, and it was extremely impossible to see the situation in the distance, but this Bohai warrior said, and the other Bohai warriors all nodded, and one of the Bohai warriors strode towards Yang Ze's resting place, for them, they don't need to look at it, just listen to the sound to know what number the other party is coming!
Yang Ze was called up, he heard that someone was coming from the city, he yawned, and said with a smile: "It's not even three hours, and the results are out, it seems that many royal people in the city are really not good!" ”
He sat up and waited for the Bohai Warrior to bring someone over, probably someone sent by Du Da Jaw!
Sure enough. The Bohai Warriors' estimation was really accurate, and after a while, two horses rushed over, and the Bohai Warriors searched behind them and brought them to Yang Ze.
Yang Ze smiled: "What good news does it bring?" He was very excited to see the two Golden Crow Soldiers, and it was estimated that it must be good news.
The two golden crow soldiers rushed to speak, and when Yang Ze heard that Li Chongjiu was dead, he said twice, and when he heard that Wu Youren was also dead, his expression couldn't help but be gloomy. sighed, and when he heard that there were only a dozen royal families left in the city, he said: "Fortunately, there are more than a dozen left, otherwise this king will write the news into a chapter and report it to Chang'an, I am afraid that the emperor and the queen may not believe it, Du Da Chin is still very powerful." ”
A golden crow soldier said: "Captain, why don't you go into the city now?" Now the entire Taiyuan City is controlled by our people, and no one dares to resist! ”
Yang Ze shook his head, waved his hand and said, "You go back." Just tell Du Da Jaw to close the city gate, don't let the city be chaotic, if someone has something bad for us. If it is directly suppressed, as for Taiyuan City, this king will not enter it, and he will not send people in. This gesture still has to be made by the king. By the way, those princes are also the property of the lord, so you can divide it. After such a hard trip, this king can't treat you badly, these are even rewards, and when I return to Chang'an, I will add you to the rank of knight! ”
The two golden crow soldiers left happily, Yang Ze called someone to bring a basin of cold water, sobered up, and began to write a chapter, writing everything that happened in Taiyuan City into the chapter, but he did not write the result, this is an ambiguous chapter, send someone back to Chang'an, and wait for the reply from Chang'an.
The matter here in Taiyuan is basically over, what Yang Ze has to do is to wait for the news, he doesn't even have to enter Taiyuan City, as long as he receives the results from Chang'an, he can almost go back to Chang'an, he is even wondering, will he lead the troops back to Chang'an, Caicai has become the empress again, Chang'an is unstable, if there is a minister who knows the result in advance, and then thinks about patting the sycophants, holding the vegetables and being the empress, it is also very likely, if others don't say it, Shen Deyin is very likely, In fact, Shen Deyin's ass is to pat his own ass, which is understandable.
Yang Ze closed his eyes and thought: "Among the emperors of the Dafang Empire, the most unlucky one is probably the current emperor Li Yan, not only has an unconscious mother who robbed him of the throne, but also an unconscious son who ponders about grabbing his throne all day long, well, by the way, there is also me, an unconscious son-in-law, who thinks about helping his daughter rob him of the throne all day long." Li Yan's life is not good, otherwise why would he be so unlucky in this life, he has such a family, I don't know what constellation he is, I have to ask in the future! ”
After squinting for a while, he got up again, picked up the pen and wrote another letter, but this letter was written for Shen Deyin, and told him about Taiyuan, let him improvise, and add fuel to the fire in Chang'an, after writing the letter, send a Bohai warrior to send it back to Chang'an with an expedited speed of six hundred miles.
After these things were done, Yang Ze began to think carefully again, whether there would be any omissions in the whole matter, this is related to whether Caicai can become the empress, and it is related to the world in the future, will it be his surname Yang, he is fighting for his son, of course he must be careful.
Let's talk about the Chang'an Palace. In the past few days, the emperor Li Yan and the queen are simply terrible, always restless, if it is just Li Yan alone, it would be fine, but the queen is the same, the two will even quarrel inexplicably, and they can't sleep well, they have insomnia, they can't sleep at night, they are groggy during the day, they both have headaches, call the imperial doctor to see a doctor, and it is just to eat some calming decoction, but there is no significant effect.
In the evening of this day, it was about to be dark, Li Yan and the queen ate a little, and their appetites were not good, so they only drank a little porridge and ate some refreshing side dishes, even if they coped with dinner.
The queen half lay on the bed and said: "Old man, you said that we used to be poor, and we didn't have anything, but we were quite able to eat, and now we are finally rich again, but we can't eat anything, how do I feel that we have lost too much in this life!" ”
Li Yan sat on a dragon pier at the table, and when he heard his wife say this, he also felt the same way, and said: "I am really restless these days, and it is not easy to drink medicine, I really don't know why!" ”
The queen said: "You say, could it be because you are the emperor, but you don't live in the palace." So I can't suppress the dragon qi in the palace, this dragon qi is churning, can't we be sick! ”
The queen has always been superstitious, and she believes in dragon energy, feng shui and other things, of course she has to believe it, if she doesn't believe in these, isn't it equivalent to believing that her husband is not the true son of the dragon!
Li Yan actually believed it, but he didn't have the opportunity to believe it before, and now he has become the emperor again. Afraid of losing his good life, of course he will suffer from gains and losses.
Li Yan hesitated and said, "Then let's move to the dormitory?" But there was my mother's coffin parked there, and even if my mother was buried after the first seven days, to be honest, I didn't really want to live there, and I would feel uncomfortable! ”
The queen said: "Me too, I don't want to live there either, let's let Caicai live there, except for her." I don't think anyone else would want to stay in that place. ”
Li Yan laughed twice and said, "Caicai has the best relationship with her imperial grandmother, and her grandson has a deep affection, and she is a granddaughter." In terms of feelings, it is heavier than me, who is a son, in the heart of a mother! ”
"Otherwise, can you make her the new empress?" The queen answered, and said, "Actually." It's okay for your daughter to be the emperor, but I'm afraid you're not happy. The world will eventually fall into the hands of people with foreign surnames! ”
Li Yan hummed, the two of them had discussed this issue before, saying that if Yang Ze was regarded as the son-in-law of the inverted door, it would be good, but with Li Chongjiu becoming the prince, they were reluctant to mention it again, because they were afraid that Yang Ze would promise that the son of the Yang family could change his surname to Li in the future, but when they died, Yang Ze would let his son change his surname back to Yang, isn't that still the same thing, and with Yang Ze's character, it will definitely be like this, first get the country in hand, and then "transform" it, Neither of them can stop it now, and they will be even more unable to stop it in the future, so they can only ostriches and stop discussing this issue.
The two of them were silent for a long time, and the queen said: "If Chongjiu fights for a little bit of energy, we can take your burden over as soon as possible, and we can also enjoy more blessings, for example, go to Lishan to soak in hot springs, or go to Mount Tai to go around, this is a good place, if he doesn't take the burden, we won't have so much time to go, this life is really too bad, the more I think about it, the more I lose!" ”
When she was a girl, she lived quite freely, and that became her best memory, and when she married Li Yan, life was not very easy, Empress Dugu repaired her so that she couldn't even find the north, and then she was driven to the west of the town, living like a prisoner, and now she finally returned to Chang'an, but when she is older, she always feels that if she doesn't enjoy it anymore, it will really be too late to enjoy.
Li Yan glanced up at her and said, "You mean to give up the throne to Chongjiu?" We haven't seen this kid for many years, and we haven't received any letters from him when we were in Zhenxi, so we really don't know what his character has become, and after we return to Beijing, we can count the meetings we have met with him on our fingers! If I give him the throne, I really don't know how he will govern! ”
In fact, Li Yan was actually a little dissatisfied with Li Chongjiu, especially when he was exiled in Zhenxi, even the third brother Xiangwang would give a letter, so-so full of brotherhood, but Li Chongjiu, who was a son, never contacted his parents, at that time he only thought that his son was young, but after more than ten years, he never got a letter, this is not a matter of young age!
Li Yan knows very well in his heart that his son Li Chongjiu doesn't want his father to be involved, and he can be a peaceful emperor's grandson, this is the true idea of Li Chongjiu's heart, he only has such a son, of course, he also hopes that his son can live better, at least not to be harmed by the eldest princess, but after he returns to Beijing, Li Chongjiu is still not close to him, which makes him, a father, inevitably a little unhappy!
The queen frowned and said: "Who let us have such a son, the throne will be his sooner or later, you let him ascend the throne first, let him govern first, so that there are any unforeseen things, you can also take care of him more refreshingly, it is better than when we are gone, he can't handle national affairs well, and he has made a lot of accidents, are you your son-in-law a fuel-efficient lamp!" ”
Li Yan is right to think about it, if it is for the sake of Jiangshan Sheji, it is indeed the right thing for him to abdicate and become the emperor, but he has just become the emperor again, and his ass is not hot yet, so let him be the emperor, this is really unwilling, even if he is not the slightest interested in being the emperor and holding the power of the world, but he can let him give up his seat to Li Chongjiu, he is still not very willing.
Fortunately, the queen didn't have the idea of letting Li Chongjiu be the emperor, for her. What's even more distressing is her daughter Caicai, but she is patriarchal, and she is no exception, so she still wants her son to be the emperor and sit firmly on the dragon chair.
The husband and wife didn't discuss this issue much anymore, it was quite brain-spent, and they both didn't like to bother with brains, so they gossiped for a while, and in order to change their mood, the husband and wife actually called the little eunuch and the palace maid in. After singing a few little songs, the mood was more relaxed, and the husband and wife rested.
It's like this every night, and there's nothing special, at least in the first half of the night, but after the third watch, before the fourth watch, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the palace, and it stopped outside the palace. Someone whispered: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, have you ever rested?" ”
This question is simply unreasonable, in the middle of the night. It's still the middle of the night, why don't you sleep, get up in the middle of the night and listen to a little song?
The queen's feeling is shallow, and there is movement outside. She woke up and heard someone outside asking, and the voice turned out to be Liang Dazhong. She was shocked in her heart, could it be that there was another palace coup? She can't stand the thrill!
immediately got up, pushed Li Yan, and woke Li Yan up, she said loudly to the outside: "Is it Liang Dazhong, what happened, but someone wants to rebel?" ”
Li Yan woke up in a daze, but when he heard the word rebellion, he suddenly woke up, he sat up with a sigh, and said loudly: "What's the matter, what happened?" ”
Liang Dazhong came in quickly from the outside, followed by several little palace maids, after the little palace maids came in, they immediately lit the candles, so that there was light in the hall, and then several little palace maids ran out, leaving only Liang Dazhong alone.
By the candlelight, Li Yan and the queen found that Liang Dazhong was sweating, and he was panting, the queen was anxious, and asked: "What's the matter, you hurry up!" ”
Liang Dazhong swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, the big thing is not good, it's a letter from Taiyuan, it's a letter from King Yan, saying that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ascended the throne and called the emperor in Taiyuan, and he also serves the emperor and Niangniang as the emperor and the queen mother, and the person who reported the news is outside the palace, and it is Tan Zhengwen, a henchman of King Yan!" ”
Li Yan and the queen were stunned when they heard this, it turned out that there was no rebellion, ah, there was also a rebellion, but the rebel was their son Li Chongjiu!
Before they went to bed, they also said that they wanted to give up the throne to Li Chongjiu, but Li Chongjiu was so anxious that he actually ascended the throne himself, and his son was really not good!
Li Yan gave way to Li Chongjiu and Li Chongjiu himself ascended the throne, although the result was the same, but the effect was the opposite, the result was that Li Yan became the emperor, but the effect was that Li Yan was furious!
As soon as he heard that someone was not going to lead troops into the palace, but his son Li Chongjiu became the emperor in Taiyuan, Li Yan's heart was frightened, and his anger rose sharply, he got down from the dragon bed and scolded: "Zhuzi, dare to do this, who taught him to do this!" ”
The queen is also very angry, she herself said that she wants to be the queen mother, it doesn't matter, it is her own volition, but her son abolished her queen name and directly let her be the queen mother, she is unwilling, even if it is her own son, but this is not good, even if the son wants to be the emperor and wants to go crazy, but he has to discuss it with her as a mother in advance, and he can't decide without authorization!
The queen also got off the bed and said to Li Yan: "Old man, don't be angry, call Tan Zhengwen in first, ask him what's going on, and figure things out first!" ”
Li Yan had no choice but to nod, Tan Zhengwen he knew, an old acquaintance when he was in Zhenxi, and he was a guy who liked to talk nonsense, and his words might not be true.
Liang Dazhong hurriedly agreed, turned around and trotted out to find Tan Zhengwen, seeing that he was so old and running so fast, Li Yan was afraid that he would suddenly fall and break his bones, which was really bad.
Liang Dazhong ran out of the dormitory, out of the courtyard, he stopped, gasped for a few breaths, called a henchman eunuch, and said: "Open the small corner door, let Tan Zhengwen come in, come here directly, our family is waiting for him here." ”
He just pretended to have a positive attitude in front of Li Yan and the queen, otherwise he would really let him run all over the palace, he would have this thought, but he couldn't run either!
At this time, another little eunuch came up and whispered: "Godfather, if something happens, do you want to talk to the princess Banzai, it's a big deal in Taiyuan......
Liang Dazhong heaved, thinking: "A big thing is a big thing, but you don't have to tell the princess Banzai, anyway, the princess will ask when she hears any news, does Yang Ze know?" Yang Ze must have known, so she would hum and ignore it. Anyway, there can only be one kind of result, so what does it matter if you tell her or not! ”
Liang Dazhong shook his head and said, "Don't use it first, wait for Tan Zhengwen to meet the emperor, and then talk about something!" ”
Outside the palace gate, Tan Zhengwen and a group of Bohai warriors were sitting on the horse, waiting to be called into the palace, they looked at the stele in front of the palace, this stele is almost about to be built, the craftsmanship and efficiency of Chang'an craftsmen are really amazing, although this is closely related to the government's supervision in order to shoot the emperor's sycophants, but it can also reflect the problem of efficiency.
Tan Zhengwen smiled and said to the Bohai warriors: "After this stone tablet is built, maybe it will come in handy immediately." ”
The Bohai warriors naturally knew what he meant, and everyone laughed, quite proud, after all, they were with the right person, of course they had to be proud.
They rushed all the way to Chang'an, the sky was already dark, the city gate of Chang'an will not be opened for them, unless Li Yan personally ordered, you can go to the palace to apply, and then come to open the city gate, it is estimated that the sky is bright, it is better to wait outside the city gate honestly!
But Tan Zhengwen and they also have a way, anyway, the soldiers guarding the city gate are all their people, the drawbridge can't be placed, the city gate can't be opened, it doesn't matter, they put the horses on the other side of the moat, and then swim across the river, and then let the city gate guards hang them one by one in big baskets to the city!
There were a lot of them, and the guards at the city gate were tired and sweaty, and finally hung dozens of them on the city, and then found horses for them, Tan Zhengwen and others were able to get to the outside of the palace, and then called the palace gate, and asked the imperial guards to find Liang Dazhong, so busy, until the second half of the night, Liang Dazhong sent the news to Li Yan.
The palace has a small corner door, which is the kind of door specially for palace maids and little eunuchs, this kind of door usually does not open in the middle of the night, but if there is any special emergency, you can be accommodating, this time Liang Dazhong is to let the little eunuch from this small corner gate, Tan Zhengwen into the palace.
Tan Zhengwen saw the little eunuch who came out to report the news, and asked, "The emperor only sent me in alone?" ”
The little eunuch nodded hurriedly and said, "Exactly, the emperor and Niangniang only called General Tan to go in alone, and no one else called!" ”
Tan Zhengwen nodded, and ordered the Bohai warriors to continue to wait outside, he untied the sword in his waist and threw it to a Bohai warrior, and then followed the little eunuch into the palace, and walked for more than a quarter of an hour, and then arrived at the dormitory, and the little eunuch went in to report.
In the hall, Li Yan was constantly moving around, emotional, but the queen was patting the table and complaining loudly, she mainly said that Li Chongjiu was taken bad by the eldest princess, and that King Xiang was not a good cake, originally his son Li Chongjiu was good, but because he saw too many bad things they did, he also learned badly.
Li Yan finally couldn't bear it anymore and said: "You just don't say a few words, Chongjiu hasn't been in contact with the eldest sister and them a few times, saying that they have brought Chongjiu badly, and this conscience can't get by." ”
The queen snorted and said, "Conscience, if your brothers and sisters had a conscience, they could still die so early, even Lord Yama couldn't look at it, and took them in early!" ”
Li Yan saw that his wife was a little angry, so he had to shake his head and said, "Why do you say that you don't have these things, let's wait for Tan Zhengwen to come!" (To be continued......)
