The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 119 Set off again
After lingering in Yangguan for more than five days, Tianxuan Shijing has been paying attention to the movement in Shicheng. First, the matter of food spread to the Tubo army, which caused quite a commotion. Those Tubo troops came out to fight nothing more than food. , now the battle situation is still deadlocked, the food is gone first, the food road was attacked earlier, there is not much food left in the army, the Tubo army is facing the crisis of food shortage, naturally the army is not stable, and it is not energetic to fight .

Before Gerdan could react, the soldiers on the Yangguan side were mobilized. Together with Shazhou and Yumenguan, a total of [-] troops were dispatched to encircle and suppress the [-] Tubo people in front of Shicheng. After the order, it was too late, and he found himself surrounded by the Tang army.

The gate of Shicheng was wide open, and Cheng Chumo led three thousand soldiers to rush out. Together with the army, they rushed into the formation of Tubo soldiers and fought for a while. The three thousand soldiers in this city rushed to the battlefield one by one more vigorously, as if they were going to kill each other. All the grievances these days are vented.

"The general manager has an order, not one of the [-] Tubo people will be left behind!" The general leading the troops shouted loudly, and the people under his command killed even more happily.

However, Li Jing gave such an order, in the eyes of others, it is extremely cruel, but this order, Li Jing also has a sense of self-defilement.

It seems that the news here has reached Li Jing. This time, Li Jing is not responsible for the Ministry of War's scapegoat. Let's see what other tricks they can play.

Thinking of the news that came over the past two days, a smile appeared on Xuan Shijing's face. He picked up a pen in the room and began to write a letter to Cheng Chumo. He was delayed in Shicheng for a long time. Now that the situation in Shicheng is set, it is time to start. walked back.

After packing the letter, he ordered the younger brother at the inn to deliver the letter to Ding Xiangming and asked him to send someone to deliver it to Cheng Chumo. Xuan Shijing packed up his things and set off for the pass with Long'er and Gao Jun.

All the way through Shazhou and Suzhou, after walking for seven or eight days, I arrived at Ganzhou City.

"Little Marquis, after passing Ganzhou City, that's the border of Guannei." Gao Jun sat outside the carriage and said, "Should we rest in the city for one night or add something and move on?"

Xuan Shijing in the carriage heard the words and opened the door curtain to look outside. Sure enough, the tall city wall of Ganzhou City was within easy reach, and Gao Jun was driving the carriage to the city gate.

"Let's rest here for one night." Xuan Shijing said aloud, the road from Khotan Town to Chang'an has already traveled more than half, and the journey has slowed down after entering the customs. But inside the pass is different, there is a township within ten miles, and a city within a hundred miles. With a good rest environment, Xuan Shijing will naturally not miss it. Xuan Shijing is really tired after sitting in a carriage non-stop all day long. Going to Chang'an in this state, I will inevitably be worried by my mother again.

The carriage continued to drive slowly towards the gate of Ganzhou City, and it was outside the gate in a blink of an eye.

"What's going on at the city gate in front? Why are people entering and leaving the city still being searched?" Xuan Shijing looked at the city gate, and there was already a long queue at the city gate.

Gao Jun stared intently, and saw that the soldiers on both sides of the city gate were holding a portrait in their hands, carefully comparing each person entering the city.

"Young Master, those people seem to be looking for someone." Gao Jun said, "Should we go there?"

"Let's go, we have to go to the city anyway." Xuan Shijing said.

Hearing this, General Gao Jun drove over in his carriage, and was stopped by guarding soldiers as soon as he reached the gate of the city.

"Stop! What are you doing?" The soldier held a waist knife and stopped the carriage.

Gao Jun sat in the car, looked at the soldier and said, "We came from Longxi and want to enter the city."

"Who is sitting in the carriage, get out of the carriage for inspection." The soldier shouted into the carriage.

Xuan Shijing, who was sitting in the carriage, heard the words outside, raised the door curtain, got out, jumped off the carriage, Longer followed closely behind.

The soldier held the portrait in his hand and stared at Xuan Shijing for a long time, then looked at Long'er, then waved his hand, "Okay, you guys go into the city."

"Soldier, may I ask what happened in Ganzhou City? Why did you set up checkpoints in front of the city gate?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Why do you ask this question? It has nothing to do with you. Don't just ask me about it. Let's go to the city." The soldier said impatiently.

Gao Jun saw the soldier's attitude, it was okay, he took a step forward and said angrily: "Speak politely, do you know who is standing in front of you?"

Seeing Gao Jun's arrogance, the soldier felt a little nervous, he couldn't be a nobleman, he cupped his hands and asked, "I don't know what your Excellency is?"

Xuan Shijing smiled, then took out a sign from his bosom, and handed it to the soldier. The soldier saw the sign, and there was a line written on the sign made of pure gold: Feng Xuanweihou
Hastily returned the token to Xuan Shijing, clasped his fists and said: "The final general does not know that it is Lord Xuanwei, I hope Lord Hou will make amends."

"Those who don't know are not guilty, what happened in Ganzhou?" Xuan Shijing asked.

The soldier glanced at Xuan Shijing cautiously, and said falteringly: "This matter has something to do with the residence of Lord Hou."

Um?Why did it involve the Hou Mansion?

"His Royal Highness King Jing's mansion was stolen. I heard that important things were lost, and the one who stole the mansion was Gao Yuan, a chivalrous thief with outstanding lightness skills. After hearing that Gao Yuan stole something, he wanted to escape to Longxi for a while. , Ganzhou City is the only way to go west to Longxi, so we set up checkpoints and searched in Ganzhou City." The soldier said.

Gao Yuan?King Jing?Xuan Shijing looked at Gao Jun beside him, he had never heard of such a person before, and then asked: "Why is this Gao Yuan related to my Houfu again? Which Highness is King Jing? "

"King Jing is the original His Royal Highness Zhao Wang. This matter has nothing to do with your Marquis Mansion directly, but this Gao Yuan was born in Lulin, and Lvlin is headed by Erxianzhuang, and Gao Yuan is from Erxianzhuang, so... It seems that His Royal Highness King Jing has been staring at the Hou Mansion in Chang'an," said the soldier.

It's Li Yuanjing again. It seems that my mother has not been idle in Chang'an all these years, and I don't know what the investigation has uncovered. Could it be that it has something to do with Li Yuanjing?But the most important thing right now is to try to find Gao Yuan and protect him. He might have something very important to Li Yuanjing, otherwise Li Yuanjing wouldn't search for him in such a big way.

The matter was almost finished, Xuan Shijing bid farewell to the soldiers guarding the city, entered Ganzhou City in a carriage, sat on the frame in front of the carriage, and Gao Jun beside him was driving the carriage, without saying a word, Xuan Shijing Shi Jing also saw Gao Jun's abnormality, when the soldier said Gao Yuan's name.

"Gao Jun, do you know this Gao Yuan?" Xuan Shijing asked, judging from his name, he looked like a family member.

"Gao Yuan is my elder brother." Gao Jun said surprisingly.

It turns out that Gao Jun has an older brother. This is also the first time Xuan Shijing has heard Gao Jun mention it.
