The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 519 Chang'an First Snow
You buried the bones in the mud, I sent the world to the world full of snow.

——Bai Juyi in "Meng Wei Zhi"
……

The fight in the "Xianxian Tower" alarmed the Jinwu Guards who were patrolling Pingkangfang.A team of a hundred people arrived at the wine shop.

The princess guard held up a gold medal, and said loudly: "The Tubo bandits attacked Her Royal Highness, and they still haven't won it!"

With a sound of "crash", the soldiers of the Jinwu Guard quickly dispersed and surrounded the Tubo people.Dozens of crossbows in his hands aimed at the Tibetans.

Although the Tubo mage was skilled in martial arts, he couldn't escape with the Tubo young master, so he could only put down the weapons in his hands and catch the Tubo young master together with other Tubo people.

At this time, Li Zhifang, the right minister, hurried over, saluted Princess Qingluan deeply, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, these are the envoys of Tubo, and they are all figures in Tubo. The leader is Tubo The new lord abandoned Song Dezan's son Mou Ru. The dharma king beside him was Mohaji, the first disciple of the Tubo state teacher.

They will have an audience with His Majesty tomorrow and express to my Tang Dynasty that they are willing to send troops to help Tang put down the rebellion.His Majesty attaches great importance to this matter, and asks His Majesty to show mercy and forgive his crime. "

Princess Qingluan's face softened a little when she heard that these Tibetans were going to meet her father tomorrow.She said to Li Zhifang: "Tell them, even if they are Tubo envoys, it's not their turn to make trouble in Chang'an.

If you dare to bully my people of the Tang Dynasty next time, even with the holy metaphor of my father, I will never show mercy! "

Seeing Princess Qingluan's extrajudicial favor, Jin Wuwei withdrew the arrow formation.Li Zhifang, the right secretary, took the Tubo leader Mou Ru and Dharma king Mohaji to thank the princess, and left in a hurry.

When passing by Bai Fu's side, Maha Ji and Bai Fu's eyes collided in the air, with murderous intent.

Mohaji smiled slightly, and bowed eleven times to Bai, saying: "Your Excellency is good at kung fu, and I will come to learn it someday."

Bai Fuzheng said, "Since your Excellency is the head of the national teacher, why don't you assist the Tubo hero to walk the righteous way? There is a saying in our Central Plains: 'Those who offend a strong man will be punished even if they are far away'! Please do it yourself!"

Maha Ji's expression changed, he snorted coldly, and walked away.

Walking out of the archway of "The Tower of Immortals", Mou Ru turned around and looked back.

Looking at the towering princess of the Tang Dynasty, Mou Ru made an oath and secretly said: "One day I will go south to herd horses and kill you back to Chang'an. At that time, I will rape and kill all of you Tang women, and not one will be left behind!"

……

Seeing the Tubo people leaving, Princess Qingluan asked: "Brother Fu, what do you think about Tubo helping Tang put down the rebellion?"

Bai Fu smiled contemptuously, and said, "The weasel has no good intentions in wishing the rooster a new year. Qisong Dezan's real intention is to invade Tang soil in the name of providing military aid.

After the outbreak of the Anlushan Rebellion, the imperial court sought military assistance from Huihe, Bahana, Tocharia, and Dashi, and also withdrew 20 soldiers from the Western Regions.

In the past two years, Tubo took advantage of the flawless Tang Dynasty to look around and encroached on the land of many countries in the Western Regions.The Tubo army marched northward and conquered Weiwu, Shibaocheng and other Tang army fortresses in the Jiuqu area.These places were just taken back from Tubo by the Tang army two years ago after a bloody battle.

In addition to going north, the Tubo army went east, occupied many places in Longyou, cut off the connection between the Tang army in the Western Regions and the imperial court, and even Shanzhou, the seat of Longyou, had fallen.

Now Longyou and several states in the northwest of Bashu have fallen into the hands of Tubo one after another, and the gateway to Chang'an has been opened.If the time for suppressing the rebellion continues to prolong, Baobuqi Tubo has the wolfish ambition to covet Chang'an. "

Princess Qingluan was shocked, and said: "Then I will remind Father Emperor as soon as possible!"

Bai Fu smiled and said: "Your Majesty should have sensed Tubo's disobedience, so Tubo proposed to send troops to help Tang put down the rebellion several times before, but His Majesty always refused.

It was only because he was unwilling to face the enemy behind his back that he made appropriate concessions to Tubo's encroachment on the Western Regions, and sent envoys to visit Tubo to show goodwill. "

Back in the elegant room, the middle-aged beautiful woman who was harassed by the Tibetans knelt down in front of Princess Qingluan, thanking her for her rescue.

After a few words of comfort, Princess Qingluan raised her eyebrows and asked, "Ma'am, look at Mian Shan, have I met you somewhere?"

The middle-aged beautiful woman hurriedly replied: "Your Highness has a good memory. Minnie Yao was once a maid in the palace and served the queen for many years. When you were young, the maid used to play with you in the palace.

Later, the minnv got old and was sent back out of the palace by the servant's office.

After leaving the palace, I opened an embroidery workshop with a few court ladies I had good friends with, and made a living from embroidery.The daily work is to cut new clothes and mend expensive clothes for wealthy families. "

"Then why did you get involved with the Tubo people?" Princess Qingluan asked curiously.

The court lady Yao replied: "A few days ago, an old customer introduced us a business, saying that a Tibetan envoy arrived in Chang'an, and hoped that we could customize a batch of Tang costumes for him to meet His Majesty. Our sisters accepted the deposit Afterwards, he rushed to make clothes for the Tubo envoys day and night, and finally finished it on time.

After the Tubo envoys received the clothes, they thought that the size was not suitable and needed some modification, so they called us here to change the clothes.After the modification is completed, the final payment will be made. "

"Then why was there a conflict?" Princess Qingluan asked.

The court lady Yao paused for a moment, thinking about her words, before replying: "Maybe the women are worrying too much. The women have been in the palace for many years, and have experienced the grievances and grievances of the Queen, Concubine Wu Hui and other empresses in the harem, so they are extra sensitive.

These Tubo people were not ordinary people. They kept spying on the situation of the palace, inquiring about the rituals in the palace, and the grievances and grievances between the palace people and courtiers, etc. under the guise of changing their clothes. "

It turned out that the Tubo people kept inquiring about the father-son grievances between Xuanzong and Suzong, the influence of Empress Zhang, Li Fuguo and others on Suzong... These sensitive topics aroused the vigilance of the court lady Yao. human control.

Unexpectedly, the Tubo people were not stupid. They were worried that the woman would take the opportunity to escape, so they sent someone to follow behind secretly.If this woman escapes by chance, she will take the opportunity to catch her.

Coincidentally, the court lady was in a panic and broke into Princess Qingluan's elegant room at a critical moment.

So there was everything that came after.

Bai Fu suddenly realized that these Tubo people really worked hard to spy on Datang's intelligence.

The Tubo people deliberately bribed the maids in the palace who were expelled from the palace due to old age.The Tibetans knew that these maids knew more about court affairs, and when they were abandoned, it was a good time to take advantage of them.Through them, the Tubo people can easily inquire about the important information about the Tang Dynasty Palace and the core secrets of the imperial court...

It can be inferred from this that the Tubo people must have other channels to spy on the military situation of the Tang Dynasty.

Being able to grasp the information of the Tang Dynasty in a timely manner, it is no wonder that Tubo took the initiative in the battle with the Tang army in the Western Regions.It can be said that the powerful intelligence work gave Tubo and Datang the capital to challenge.

From this, it can be seen that the new leader of Tubo, Qi Song Dezan, has a deep and scheming side.

Bai Fu ordered people to reward Yao Shi, the maid of honor.Bai Fu said: "Aunt Yao, after you go back, I will send the disciples of the Chuan Gang to protect you and the other embroidered ladies. Don't worry about the Tubo people coming back to retaliate against you."

Maid Yao hurriedly expressed her thanks.

Bai Fu said: "I also ask Aunt Yao to help me contact other maids who are out of the palace to see if there is a similar situation recently. If so, please let me know in time, so as not to be used by thieves and become bandits."

Maid Yao nodded in agreement.

After all matters were dealt with, Bai Fu and Princess Qingluan stepped out of the "Exile Immortal Building".When I got out of the building, it was snowing heavily outside.

The goose-feather-like snow turned Chang'an into another world in an instant.Looking from a distance, the Daming Palace on Longshouyuan is majestic and majestic, like a palace in the sky.

Princess Qingluan was overjoyed, her beautiful eyes shone brightly, and she said, "This is the first snow this year!"

Bai Fu nodded and said, "The first snow of this year came really early."

Princess Qingluan was wearing a red cloak, with a circle of snow-white mink fur around her neck, which was particularly eye-catching in the flying snow.

Princess Qingluan couldn't help herself, she raised her hands high, and danced a cheerful Huxuan dance on the snow.The skirt is flying and spinning freely, like a beautiful swan.

The auspicious snow heralds a good year, and a heavy snow makes everyone happy.Thousands of households opened their doors and took to the streets. Groups of children were chasing and playing in the streets, clapping their hands and singing songs: "With a golden knife in hand, rise up to the east, and heaven sends demon soldiers to kill injustice. Wait for the sun and the moon to level up." According to the photo, killing everything will not make peace."

Princess Qingluan asked with a smile: "Brother Fu, what are they singing about?"

Bai Fu smiled and said: "Children's nursery rhymes are just, they don't have any deep meaning, they are probably just plain and catchy."

Having said that, Bai Fu still couldn't help thinking about the meaning of nursery rhymes.

Walk to a lakeside open space in Qushui, where the terrain is open and the snow is very thick.Princess Qingluan still has a childlike innocence, and she took her maid to build a snowman on the snow.

Bai Fu suddenly thought of the meaning of the nursery rhyme: "Isn't this just saying that someone will become the second Wu Zhao?"

With a sound of "嗖", suddenly a hidden weapon flew towards Bai Fu's face.Bai Fu didn't have time to think about it, he moved instinctively, and flew sideways lightly, like a swift catching water, dodging this hidden weapon.

"Crack", the hidden weapon directly hit the tree trunk next to Bai Fu, Bai Fu couldn't help but laugh, it turned out to be a snowball.

Princess Qingluan said coquettishly: "Idiot, how can you have a snowball fight like you? Come and see the snowman I made."

Bai Fu smiled brightly, and stepped forward. This time, he found that Princess Qingluan and the maids had built two big snowmen. Judging from the snowman's features, it turned out to be a man and a woman.

Princess Qingluan shyly said: "Brother Fu, this old man is you, and that old woman is me."

Princess Qingluan's eyes were full of splendor, and against the background of the heavy snow, she was bright and moving, extremely beautiful.

……

On the stone arch bridge across Qushui, under an oilcloth umbrella stood two slender, tall, graceful women, in the snow all over the sky, they were charming and charming.

Hu Shan'er, a woman in green with an umbrella, asked, "Are you really willing?"

The woman next to her was dressed in white, with long hair reaching her waist, and she was as pale as a chrysanthemum.She chanted shallowly, and said to herself: "I feel relieved when I see Senior Brother Fu is accompanied."

……

Bai Fu's heart suddenly felt, his eyes were like lightning, and he shot towards the stone arch bridge.

I saw people coming and going on the bridge, and many people stopped to watch the snow.Bai Fu scanned them one by one, and found no one he knew.

The crowd looked for her, but she was nowhere to be found.

Bai Fu thought about it and said, "Should it be snowing on the Golden Summit of Emei this solar term? I don't know what Junior Sister Li is doing right now?"

……

　The night is coming together to dream together, and the morning is full of tears.

　　Zhangpu's old body is third-degree sick, and Xianyang stays on the grass eight times back to autumn.

　　You buried the bones in the mud, I sent the world to the world full of snow.

　　Awei Hanlang went to each other, but Yetai was vaguely aware of it?
