Chapter 1070 Leaving Chang'an at night
Fang Xie sat upstairs watching the wind and rain.
Heavy rain fell suddenly in Chang'an City, and it has not stopped since the morning. The heavy rain soon caused the water in Changchun Garden to exceed the surface of the feet, and if it weren't for the bluestone paved road, I am afraid that it would have been muddy long ago. When Chen Xiaoru, who was holding an umbrella, ran into the wind and rain building, the clothes on his body could already drip water.
This kind of rain, umbrellas don't work at all.
"Lord, what do you have to do to find your ministers in such a hurry?"
Chen Xiaoru asked while standing on Fang Jie's side.
Fang Xie pointed at him, and a maid immediately handed over a few dry towels, Chen Xiaoru politely thanked him, and the maid bowed and retreated. The rain poured down the eaves of the windows, like a beaded curtain. The heavy rain is a bit scary, and the water curtain is about to become a waterfall.
"It's nothing special."
Fang Xie instructed the maid to find a clean set of clothes for Chen Xiaoru: "If there is nothing urgent in the Xiao Riding School, I will find a room to live in tonight, and I will get wet when I go back in the rain." ”
He poured Chen Xiaoru a cup of hot tea with his own hands: "The day before yesterday, Xiang Qingniu met a very beautiful little girl in Yiwang's mansion, and I heard that her name was Yanzhi. Specifically asked the guy about the little girl's family background or something, and he couldn't say anything. You go back and ask who the people from Shouyi's palace are and what they have to do with that little girl. ”
"That's a good thing."
Chen Xiaoru smiled: "You don't need to ask about this, your subordinates know." The captain of Shouyi Wangfu is called Liu Dongting, and most of his subordinates are veterans who have been injured in the neutral service of our Black Flag Army, and only one of these soldiers is from Chang'an City, named Su Ku, and there is a girl named Su Yanzhi. ”
"How do you know so well?"
Fang asked.
Chen Xiaoru said: "After entering the city, the veterans and wounded soldiers of our Black Flag Army will be settled, and the minister is worried that someone will withhold the silver issued to these veterans, so he has been sending Xiao Cavalry School to keep an eye on it in secret." Among so many veterans and wounded soldiers, Suku was the only one who brought his daughter to the camp and gave wine and meat to the brothers. He is a native of Chang'an City, and his home is in Xicheng. ”
"Hmm"
Fang Xie nodded, and praised Chen Xiaoru. Chen Xiaoru has too many things to manage, and it is rare for him to remember such trivial things.
"The man is a pure white family, and his father is a chief."
Chen Xiaoru said: "Daozun is finally going to break the ring now. ”
Fang Xie said with a smile: "In the past two days, his pair of little eyes have been smiling like peach blossoms every day, and they are still very bright. Go back and arrange for someone to go to King Yi's Mansion, and transfer Su Ku to the Yamen, which is responsible for distributing silver to veterans and wounded soldiers on a monthly basis, and hang up a six-grade false position, at least the place is clean and idle. ”
Chen Xiaoru immediately understood what Fang Xie meant, Su Yanzhi and Daozun have been together for the past two days, and the two of them have been eating snacks in Chang'an, and they have a lot of fun. In terms of identity, the Su Ku family will definitely feel that they are not worthy of Xiang Qingniu, so there is pressure. Fang Xie gave Su Ku a six-grade false position, at least it made Su Ku feel less pressure.
"Lord, tomorrow is the martial arts conference, are you really not going?"
Chen Xiaoru asked.
"Don't go"
Fang explained: "Tomorrow Sanjin will go back, just represent an attitude." Tomorrow I will take the light horse out of the city, and that is why I called you here today. This matter is only Sanjin Hou, Dugu, the three of you know, and no one will pay attention to the excitement of tomorrow's martial arts conference. On the side of the Xiao Riding School, in addition to Shiratori still following me, Kurosawa and Ma Lilian came over. You can arrange for the elite who are suitable for the army to follow, and tomorrow I will take 30,000 light horsemen away, go out in six gates, and assemble in Chunbo Pavilion City. ”
Chen Xiaoru was taken aback: "Why is the lord so anxious?" The heavy rain won't stop tomorrow, and even if it does, it's not suitable for rushing. ”
Fang explained: "I have to hide the matter of going out of the city for a while, the city is still unstable, and there are fewer people who know about it while it rains." The other thing is, I want to see what happens in the city when I leave. After the martial arts conference, Sanjin Hou will set off with the army, and then you will follow out of the city and then come back. ”
Chen Xiaoru immediately understood what Fang Xie meant: "My subordinates understand." ”
Fang Xie looked at the pouring rain outside and said, "These days, I have asked the people who have traveled all over the world to send the food and grass supplies needed by the 30,000 light horsemen to Chunbo Pavilion City in batches, and no one has noticed. The battle with the Mengyuan people can no longer be delayed, I ordered Song Zi to regret leading the troops to detour behind Meng Ge a while ago, and his men and horses will go straight to Shandong Road after crossing Yishui, and then go out of the Wolf Milk Mountain Canyon. ”
"Song Ziregret has my handwritten letter to the barbarian king, we have been doing business with the barbarians for several years, and the relationship is not bad, although we beat the barbarians once at the beginning, but the enemy is never fixed. I asked the barbarian king to send troops and join forces with Song Ziregret to attack the Mengyuan royal court. Now that the rear of Meng Yuan is empty, and the people and horses are all in the Central Plains, it is most suitable for the barbarians to make trouble. The barbarian has a low vision, knowing that the Meng Yuan army is not in the royal court, and the courage will be strong, and Song Ziregret should understand how to make the barbarian king tempted. ”
Chen Xiaoru couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, he always felt that Fang Xie hadn't done anything these days, but who would have thought that so many arrangements had been made in secret.
"I went to Lingmen Pass, and the war in the northwest cannot be relaxed. Chen Dingnan, Chen Yishan, Cui Zhongzhen, together with more than 300,000 troops in the northwest, plus the men and horses of the water division, have enough strength to counterattack the Mengyuan people. The Meng Yuan people are now in a hurry to eat and grass, and the rumors that Meng Ge is dead have been spread before, the people in the Meng Yuan army in the northwest will be in turmoil, Meng Lie will rush back as long as he moves his mind, and as long as he returns to the royal court, he will just catch up with the barbarians...... Let the Mengyuan people and the barbarians fight, the barbarians have developed too fast in recent years, and sooner or later it will be a disaster. ”
The more Chen Xiaoru listened, the more he admired, and Fang Xie had already calculated all the enemies before he left Chang'an City.
Song regretted that he led his troops and pretended to cooperate with the barbarians to send troops to the royal court, and he would find an opportunity to get out halfway. Then pretend to be Mengyuan people and loot the barbarian tribe, and the enmity between Mengyuan and the barbarians will be dead. Then Song regretted leading his troops to retreat to Shandong Road and guard the Wolf Milk Mountain Canyon. ”
Fang Xie didn't say a word, Song Ziregret not only instigating the barbarian king to attack the royal court, not only pretending to be a Mengyuan person to attack the barbarian tribe, but also not only defending the Wolf Milk Mountain Canyon, the most important thing is ...... Song repented of his men and horses, and he still had to defend Fan Gucheng. Of course, Song regretted not knowing why Fang Xie asked him to divide his troops to defend Fan Gu, and Mr. Jiu's words had always echoed in Fang Jie's heart and did not disappear.
Now that he knew that Fan Gucheng was hiding a big secret, Fang Xie had to take the first step to occupy Fan Gucheng.
……
……
Soon after, the heavy rain suddenly stopped, which was definitely good news for the Black Flag Army. Zhuge Wuyun's department, Liu Xuri's department, the two light cavalry combined are almost 30,000 elite soldiers, plus auxiliary soldiers, and horses carrying weapons and equipment, the scale of this team is large enough.
In order not to arouse people's ideas, the procession set off according to the time of the change of guards, and went out of the city through six gates.
From the beginning of the ugly hour, the troops were assembled one after another, and then under the leadership of the generals of each battalion, they followed the established route out of the city. The roads in Chang'an City are not muddy at all, and the official roads after leaving the city are rammed out of limestone and stones, and it will not be difficult to walk.
In this way, King Wu Fang Xie left Chang'an City.
There were several carriages in the team, which were escorted out of the city by the elite cavalry of the Xiao Cavalry School and Fang Jie's pro-military battalion. Naturally, they were Fang Jie's family members, because Fang Xie was always worried about the situation in Chang'an City, so Fang Xie didn't plan to leave them behind. Fang Xie always felt that a thousand-year-old capital like Chang'an City had gone through several dynasties, and there were far more things hidden under the water than those that surfaced.
Fang Xie sat in the carriage, looked at Sang Sassa hugging Ning'er and smiled apologetically: "Ning'er is still young, so I have to take her around." ”
"She'll know it's for her good."
Ning'er is already a good person, and she is exceptionally well-behaved and beautiful. Especially those big eyes, which seem to be able to speak, are lovely.
"I'm out of town this time, and I don't know when I'll be back. I'd rather you live in the camp of Vermilion Mountain than in Chang'an City. ”
Fang Xie looked at Ning Er's sleeping little face and lost his mind a little: "The people on Suzaku Mountain are all their own people, but the people in Chang'an City ...... Inscrutable. Everyone thinks that I have the upper hand now, and they can do whatever they want. But it is precisely because those people are so forbearant and compromise too smoothly that I feel unsafe. ”
Sang Sasa stretched out his hand and touched Fang Jie's face: "You have so many things to think about now, and it's much harder than before." ”
"There are still two tough battles, and you can be more solid after the fight."
Fang explained: "You can also sleep, it will be early in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow in Chunbo Pavilion City." ”
"That's right."
Sang Sasa suddenly laughed: "There is a great thing that I haven't had time to tell you today." ”
"What's good?"
Fang asked.
"In the afternoon, Sister Yinyu came to the room to coax Ning'er, and while chatting, she talked about something that worried her, and she didn't know what to do so she quietly asked me...... She hadn't been there for two months, and she was a little scared. She didn't dare to ask Lang Zhong casually about this kind of thing, so I checked her pulse. ”
"Got it?"
Fang Xie suddenly became energetic and asked impatiently.
"Hmm!"
Sang Sasa smiled: "She is different from me, I can't eat anything every day after I have Ning'er, and she vomits a lot." She wasn't like that, she didn't even notice anything. ”
Fang Xie couldn't help laughing, especially happy.
"It seems that it is necessary to send you back to Suzaku Mountain to recuperate."
Fang explained.
Sang Sasa shook his head: "Don't, let's let Sister Yinyu follow you." You don't know how uncomfortable it feels when a woman is pregnant when a man is not around, I survived, and I don't want Sister Yinyu to survive too. It's better for you to spend time with her every day than for her to miss you every day. ”
Fang Xie felt a pain in his heart, and couldn't help but hold Sang Sassa in his arms: "It's hard for you." ”
"That's right."
Sang Sasa suddenly said: "A few days ago, a disciple of the Yellow Sect came all the way from the grassland to look for me, and when he knew that I was in Chang'an City, he chased him all the way, and I saw him yesterday and brought me news. You are too busy, I was going to say it, but with Ning'er I always forget a lot, it seems that it is true that I have been stupid for three years to be pregnant...... The person who came was a protector of the Yellow Sect at the beginning, and he respected me a lot, he originally followed Meng Ge on the expedition, because he knew that I was in the Central Plains, so he fled halfway to look for me. ”
Sang Sasa said: "He told me that Meng Ge's expedition to the Central Plains this time is inseparable from Dalun Temple. He said that Meng Ge suddenly decided to attack the Central Plains after going to the Great Wheel Temple once. Moreover, the goal is not to annex the Central Plains, the goal is your Black Flag Army. He also said that there must be something strange in the temple now, not necessarily a person. Those people in Buddhism always mention God, but he doesn't think that there are people in the world, it must be a very strange thing. ”
Fang Xie frowned: "What else is in the Great Wheel Temple?" King Dalun Ming is dead, who is still a god? ”
He suddenly thought of the chaos that would never return, and his heart suddenly tightened.
