The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1248

"Then what's the result? My lord envoy, after you go back, you have already told Gao Zang everything you said, right?" Xuan Shijing looked at Gao Zang's envoy and said.

The envoy bowed slightly, and responded: "Yes, my king agrees with Lord Hou's request, but my majesty also has three chapters to make with Lord Hou."

"Three chapters of the agreement? Hehe, it's fresh, let's hear it." Xuan Shijing asked with great interest.

"After the Marquis enters the city, he must not plunder the property in the city, allow the soldiers to bully the people in the city, let alone endanger the lives of the people in the city." Gao Zang's envoy said.

"This Marquis can agree. For me, a little property is nothing more than the life of my Tang Erlang, but it can't be just a unilateral agreement. If the people in the city provoke my soldiers, their life and death will be determined." This Marquis has nothing to do with it." Xuan Shijing said: "If there are any other mistakes after Ben Marquis enters the city, which endangers the lives of Ben Marquis and our soldiers, then don't blame Ben Marquis for being ruthless."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou. Your majesty has promised Lord Hou to send [-] soldiers and horses from the city to camp ten miles outside the city. Naturally, there will be nothing in the city that can threaten Lord Hou." The envoy replied.

"This Marquis is just putting his ugly words up front, the envoy only needs to know this." Xuan Shijing said.

The envoy nodded, meaning he understood what Xuan Shijing said.

"If that's the case, please go back and reply to Gaozang, my lord envoy. Tomorrow, after noon, Benhou will lead the army to Pyongyang City, hoping to see King Treasure outside the city."

"Yes, Lord Hou." The envoy saluted and responded.

Chang Le sent the envoy out of the barracks, and then went straight back to Xuan Shijing's tent.

"Master Hou, General Su Dingfang's army will reach Pyongyang City tomorrow afternoon. Your timing is really perfect." Chang Le said.

"I have to be sure. The lives of more than 2 people are in the hands of the Marquis. Surrender is of great benefit to us, but behind the benefits, there are always risks hidden. Now the [-] soldiers in the city are outside the city. The garrison has already ruled out the biggest risk, and the remaining corners and corners, Benhou has already told Gaozang's envoy, let him go back and pass on a message, lest some people are still weighing their minds, weighing our progress After the city, how can something happen." Xuan Shijing said: "There are three chapters in the agreement, hehe, interesting."

"Master Hou thinks that there are three chapters in the agreement between Gao Zang and Lord Hou, and there are many articles in it?" Chang Le asked.

"Who knows? He doesn't trust the Marquis, and the Marquis doesn't trust him either, so both sides are probing and acting cautiously. They have been cautiously sailing for ten thousand years. This last trembling, the Marquis can't be careless." Xuan Shi Jing said: "Send all the scouts in the camp to investigate all sides around Pyongyang City. What needs to be paid attention to is that you must not reveal your whereabouts."

"Yes." Chang Le clapped her hands in response.

In the morning of the next day, the Tang army camp began to prepare to leave for the outside of Pyongyang, but the scouts came back and reported that in the early morning, the gate of Pyongyang city was opened wide, and all the [-] troops in the city left the city and headed towards the city. Walking outside, they began to set up camp ten miles outside Pyongyang City, and Su Dingfang's army had already pulled out their camp and started heading towards Pyongyang City, and they would reach Pyongyang City in about noon.

Xuan Shijing put on his armor, rode on his horse, and set off towards Pyongyang with more than 2 Liaodong troops. The army held high the black banner with Xuan characters, which clearly demonstrated the identity of the army's general.

In the camp of the Tang army, Fang Shu led five hundred soldiers to stay in the camp, and five thousand Liaodong troops were on their way to Dahang City. It is estimated that they will arrive after noon today. Fang Shu will bring people to meet him in the camp. Quan Nannan and a few of his entourage also stayed in the camp. Now that he revisits his old place, Quan Nan Nan has no intention of going to the city. I wonder if he has some guilt towards Goguryeo in his heart, making him unwilling to face Gao Zang. Unwilling to face Izumi Nanjian.

Although it was a fight for fame and fortune, after all, it was a national crisis. He chose to escape. He became a coward. Now, what face does he have to face his old friends in Pyongyang?

Outside the city of Pyongyang, Gao Zang waited outside the city gate with all the nobles in the city, but there was no figure of Izumi Nanjian in the crowd.

Xuan Shijing rode at the head of the team and came to the gate of Pyongyang City, looking down at Gao Zang and the nobles in the city.

The eunuch next to Gao Zang was holding a tray in his hand, and on the tray was the king's seal representing Goguryeo's supreme power. Gao Zang was going to descend to Tang, and this king's seal was naturally presented to Xuan Shijing.

"Benhou is very pleased that the King of Treasures can understand the general situation like this. I wanted to come and tell the King of Treasures earlier that I agree with the three chapters of the agreement proposed by the King of Treasures. But before entering the city, I still have to say something to the King of Treasures. , the agreement is made, the Marquis will abide by it, but the Marquis does not hope that after entering the city, there will be troubles in the city. If this is the case, the King of Treasures cannot guarantee it, then the agreement between you and the Marquis is considered to be non-existent It happened." Xuan Shijing said.

"Please rest assured, Lord Hou," Gao Zang said.

Xuan Shijing nodded, then dismounted, the little eunuch beside Gao Zang handed the tray to Gao Zang, after Gao Zang took it, he presented it to Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing took the king seal from Gao Zang, which symbolized the supreme power of Goguryeo, looked at it, and handed it to Chang Le, who was beside him, for preservation.

"In that case, let's go to the city. After entering the city, we will hand over the details." Xuan Shijing said.

"Hou Ye, please." Gao Zang turned sideways, signaling Xuan Shijing to invite first.

Xuan Shijing stepped on his horse, rode on the horse, and led [-] Liaodong troops into the city of Pyongyang.

Only then did Xuan Shijing start massing from far away, but he didn't find Quan Nanjian in the crowd, but when he was talking to Gao Zang, he didn't ask about Quan Nanjian's trace, so he didn't know, it was just that he was in the crowd. A trace of vigilance remained in my heart.

This Quan Nanjian can compete with Gao Zang and force Quan Nanjian to surrender to Tang, and it will not be easy. Although he is a little ignorant of the overall situation, such a person is the most dangerous for Xuan Shijing.

Xuan Shijing led troops into Pyongyang City and took over the defense of all parts of Pyongyang City, including the palace.

Gao Zang followed Xuan Shijing and came to the palace, Xuan Shijing found a place to sit in the main hall of the palace, and Chang Le stood behind Xuan Shijing.

"Now that the Marquis has taken over Pyongyang City, the Marquis still needs to understand the specific situation in the city. There should be a government office in Pyongyang City?" Xuan Shijing asked Gao Zang.

"Hou Ye, don't worry, all the materials are ready, and the people from the government office are about to send them to the palace." Gao Zang said.

"Very good." Xuan Shijing replied.
