Kidnapped by Princess Changle at the beginning

Page 198

All the soldiers and common people in the city breathed a sigh of relief.

The common people took out the last bit of food from their homes and sent them to the army.

The whole city is celebrating.

……

at the same time.

A convoy escaped heavy pursuit and finally approached Shanzhou.

It was the people led by Xue Rengui.

They have gone through hardships along the way.

The most recent time, they were less than [-] miles away from the Tubo army, and if they were not careful, they would all stay on the Tubo land.

in the carriage.

Changsun Chong laughed loudly and said: "Damn woman, you wanted to catch me before, and the Tang Dynasty is in front of you. When you get to Shanzhou, I will kill you with my own hands. I want to make your life worse than death. To take revenge..."

Princess Tubo looked at Changsun Chong in horror.

Her hands and feet are now untied.

Because Xue Rengui and others discovered that the Tubo princess looked big and thick, and she was fierce, but in fact she was so weak that even Chang Sun Chong couldn't beat her. Plus, she was already going to the Tang Dynasty, so there was no need to tie her up. .

Princess Tubo looked outside and confirmed Chang Sun Chong's statement.

Near Shanzhou, the surrounding natural and geographical environment is different from that of Tubo, and there are obviously many forests.

She stared at Changsun Chong suddenly, and asked, "Are you a noble from Tang Dynasty?"

Chang Sun Chong sneered and said: "You are very afraid of death now, right? I'm not afraid to tell you that my father is Sikong of the Tang Dynasty, the Duke of Qi, and my aunt is the queen of the Tang Dynasty. The current crown prince will call me cousin..."

Princess Tubo widened her eyes and thought about it carefully.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she stood up.

stab.

She tore off her clothes suddenly, took them off, threw them aside, and stood naked in front of Chang Sun Chong.

Chang Sun Chong swallowed his saliva in surprise, and shouted, "You, what are you going to do?"

Princess Tubo hugged him and bullied him.

That afternoon.

Chang Sun Chong did not refuse.

As the saying goes, if you don't see a woman for a month, you will feel pretty when you see a sow.

But it has been almost half a year since Chang Sun Chong left Chang'an City.

She suddenly felt that this Tubo princess also had a special flavor.

The carriage moved on.

It rocked back and forth violently.

Er Niu Pai immediately stepped forward, came to Xue Rengui, and said in surprise: "Da Lang, how can this... the eldest grandson be able to talk about it?"

Xue Rengui shook his head and said, "Master Changsun is from a famous family and has a high status. Perhaps this is the joy of nobles."

Er Niu thought for a while and said, "I don't want to be an aristocrat anymore."

Xue Rengui raised his horsewhip and said loudly: "Everyone, work harder, and we will be safe if we arrive at Shanzhou City before dark."

hooves.

hooves.

The horse gallops.

The carriage was running fast.

……

Chang'an City.

It is already April.

The weather has gradually warmed up.

But in the Ganlu Hall of the imperial palace, the atmosphere was very dull.

Hou Junji, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, said: "...Your Majesty, the latest border news was sent three days ago. Duan Zhixuan said that Tubo has attacked Shanzhou for four days, and all the soldiers and horses in Shanzhou City have been mobilized. According to his prediction, Shanzhou might not last for three days, and he also said... He also said that he would fight with the soldiers of Shanzhou City until the last one dies..."

Li Er didn't speak.

The ministers were also silent.

After a while, Li Er asked, "Hou Aiqing, how long will it take for the reinforcements from Liangzhou and Ganzhou to arrive at the earliest?"

Hou Junji said: "Your Majesty, according to calculations, the Liangzhou and Ganzhou armies will arrive at the earliest in five days. I'm afraid... I'm afraid that Shanzhou City will no longer exist by then..."

boom.

Li Er slammed his fist hard on the table, his face was so gloomy that water could drip out.

……

Chapter 233 Don't Care About the Country, Only Care About Cooking Skills

Just when Li Er and several ministers were depressed and helpless.

But there was a rush of footsteps outside the hall.

The door of the main hall creaked open, and a sergeant in the armor of the Imperial Army rushed in like crazy, shouting: "... urgent report... Your Majesty, urgent report from the border... Baiqisi flying pigeon to pass the letter, There is an urgent report to Chang'an..."

Everyone's heart skipped a beat, with a bad premonition.

Li Er closed his eyes in pain, as if he didn't want to face the news from the border.

Changsun Wuji clenched his fists and said angrily, "Tubo has deceived people too much. If you don't avenge this revenge, my grandson Wuji will die with peace."

Wei Zheng gritted his teeth and said: "Even if the government and the public oppose it, we must use troops against Tubo. Our Tang Dynasty lost not only Shanzhou, but Lanzhou is also in danger. Once Lanzhou is lost, the armies of Ganzhou and Liangzhou will all be cut off. At that time, there will be more bad luck than good luck."

Wang Gui echoed: "Your Majesty, the most urgent thing is to inform the world of Tubo's evil deeds immediately, and immediately send Li Jing, Qin Qiong and other generals to lead the army of other guards to Lanzhou for reinforcements."

Everyone said something to each other, but they all persuaded Li Er to send troops, including those who were hesitant before, but now their attitude became firm.

boom.

Li Er slammed his fist on the table again, and said with a gloomy expression: "There is more than enough to die. I am not afraid of the Tubo people, but the people in Shanzhou. They must be living in dire straits now. I couldn't." Be a good emperor, and let the people of Tang Dynasty fall into the flames of war... I am guilty, wait for this matter, I will issue an edict of guilt..."

Li Erxu talked for a long time.

The soldier who brought the urgent report was stunned. He quietly looked at Li Er and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, there is a piece of red silk on this urgent report, which is good news."

good news?

Li Er and Changsun Wuji's eyes widened immediately, and they stared carefully at the coiled urgent report.Sure enough, there was an extra piece of red silk on it.

This is the rule of Baiqisi. Once it is a happy news, it will be tied with a piece of red silk.

Generally speaking, this kind of situation will not happen, because any urgent report will not be a good thing.

Li Er was a little puzzled and waved his hand.

A eunuch next to him hastily stepped forward to submit the urgent report.

Li Er opened it with his own hands, and saw a few words written on a small piece of paper: Tubo retreats, Shanzhou is safe.

In just eight words, Li Er suddenly burst out laughing.

He stood up abruptly, and said to Changsun Wuji and the others: "My dear friends, there is good news from Baiqisi that Tubo has retreated, and the crisis in Shanzhou City has been resolved."

Wei Zheng shouted: "This is the blessing of His Majesty, the blessing of the Tang Dynasty, the blessing of the people of the world, God bless the Tang Dynasty."

Wang Gui said happily: "That's great, Shanzhou City is fine, and Lanzhou will be fine too. As soon as the Ganzhou and Liangzhou armies arrive, Tubo will have nothing to fear. It's really great."

From the emperor to the ministers, everyone was overjoyed.

The monarch and his ministers were very happy.

Changsun Wuji stood up and said with doubts on his face: "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter is strange. According to Duan Zhixuan's report a few days ago, it is said that Tubo is about to take down Shanzhou City, and there will be no large army in Shanzhou City in a short time. Chiyuan, why did Tubo suddenly give up this fat meat that is so full of mouth? It is not justified in terms of emotion and reason."

Everyone and Li Er were taken aback.

Just now, everyone was patronizing and happy, but they didn't expect to come here.

Li Er frowned and said, "Could it be that Baiqisi's information is wrong?"

But then he shook his head again.

Tubo's retreat is definitely not a trivial matter.

The people in Baiqisi are all professional and can't make mistakes.

Then why did Tubo retreat?

Li Er and the ministers were puzzled.

At this moment, Li Er suddenly asked, "Where is Chen Chu?"

Gao Chen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, you ordered that Young Master Chen not be allowed out of the palace. During this period of time, he is staying in the East Palace. I heard that he competes with the Crown Prince and King Jin every day in cooking."

Li Er's complexion changed: "Hmph, why is this unreasonable? At this time, Shanzhou, the border pass of the Tang Dynasty, is about to fall, and Chen Chu is still in the mood to learn cooking skills. There are also those two bastards, one Taiwan and one Jin. Wang, you don't care about the affairs of the country, how dare you fool around with Chen Chu and call the three of them over."

Gao Chen left in a hurry.

Not long after, I saw Chen Chu, Crown Prince Li Chengqian, and King Jin Li Zhi walking into the Manna Hall side by side.

Seeing this, Changsun Wuji frowned, and looked at Chen Chu with some displeasure.

Ordinarily, Li Chengqian had a noble status, so he should walk in front, King Jin followed closely behind, and Chen Chu stayed far behind.

But now, three people walked in side by side.

Not at all polite.

Chen Chu and the others just stepped forward.

boom.

Li Er slammed the table and said angrily: "Prince, Jin Wang, Chen Chu, what time is it, you still dare to learn cooking skills in the East Palace, do you still have the country and society of the Tang Dynasty in your eyes?"

Li Chengqian and Li Zhi were used to being disciplined since they were young. Seeing Li Er's face, they were too frightened to speak.

However, Chen Chu said indifferently: "Father, this cooking competition will not prevent the two Highnesses from caring about the Tang Dynasty."

Li Er glared at Chen Chu: "No hindrance? Now, the Tubo army may have already defeated Shanzhou, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are all worried about this matter. The crown prince and King Jin are fine, and they still have the mind to cook. Is it something a prince should do?"

Chen Chu said neither humble nor overbearing: "Father, if my prediction is correct, the Tubo people have retreated by now."

Ok?

Now, Li Er and Changsun Wuji were all stunned.

Baiqisi's urgent report was delivered half a stick of incense ago.

Only a few people in Ganlu Hall know about it.

But how did Chen Chu know?

Li Er raised his eyebrows and stared at Chen Chu: "Boy, tell me honestly, where did you get the news from?"

Chen Chu looked around and said, "Your Majesty, when I waited to come in, I only saw the gentlemen, especially the old generals, with calm expressions on their faces, calm and not worried at all. They are all The pillars of the imperial court, the core figures of the Tang Dynasty, if Shanzhou is really lost, how can they not be worried, so, I guess, Shanzhou should have been saved, and the Tubo army retreated...Of course, only this Not enough, but also because, as I said at the beginning, if there is a magical soldier who descends from the sky to Tubo and makes some small moves to the rear of the Tubo army, with Songtsan Gampo's suspicious character, he will definitely withdraw the army! Now it seems that the magical soldier should be It worked."

Chen Chu said lightly.

Li Er and the others became more startled the more they heard.

He even felt that Chen Chu was a little scary.

To be able to infer the correct conclusion through the performance of the people present.

But when he heard the word "divine soldier", Li Er couldn't help but sneered and said: "It's nonsense, how could there be a divine soldier in Tubo, this matter, I and the Ministry of War are not aware of it."
