Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 546
the end of the year.

Liaodong's [-]-mile fast horses, riding one after another, galloped non-stop on the official road leading to Luoyang.

Along the way, the horses were changed for twenty miles, and the people were changed for a hundred miles. Although the people and horses were replaced, the express mail did not stop, eight hundred miles a day.

Departing from Anshi City on the east bank of the Liao River to Luoyang City, the whole journey is a full three thousand miles.

Even if it was expedited at eight hundred miles, it would have been three and a half days before the first urgent report arrived at Ziwei Palace in Luoyang.

When the letter arrived, it was still dark.

The gates of Luoyang were closed.

The credible messenger didn't dare to delay, he shouted to the defenders on the top of the city, showing his logo of the eight hundred li urgent messenger.The city gate guards were also very surprised when they saw it.

Hurry up at [-] miles, this is not available to ordinary people, and this news is sent from Liaodong.

The people in the city couldn't help guessing, could it be that Luo Cheng rebelled in Liaodong?Although the emperor only put Luo Yi and Luo Siye under house arrest, the emperor couldn't hide the news.

Even the forbidden words are often leaked out, not to mention the important news that Luo Yi and Luo Siye were placed under house arrest, which has long been known throughout the city, and even rumors and rumors have been spread.

"I'll find a basket and put it down and pull you up!"

The guards at the city gate didn't dare to let him enter the city at this time, but they managed to find a willow basket and ropes, put them down in the city, and then dragged him and the letter back to the city.

After confirming that it was the [-]-mile rush from Liaodong, the goalkeeper asked, "I don't know what happened in Liaodong, and you actually used [-]-mile rush?"

"Could it be that the Goguryeo people called?" Someone asked with a smile on purpose.

The courier was exhausted long ago. Although he only ran a relay for a hundred miles, he ran with all his strength, even at night. "I don't know too well. I asked the messenger before. He said that it seems that Yu Wenhuaji sent someone to assassinate Chu Guogong in Anshi City. Chu Guogong is now in a coma, life and death are unpredictable, and the Liaodong Army is raging. "

'I'm stupid, is it true or not? "

"I heard it too."

"Follow me, I'll take you to Tianjin Qianqiao."

Hearing such explosive news, the officer who defended the city had 1 thoughts in his heart, and then he didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly led the man to Tianjin with a few subordinates.

Along the way, I met several Nanya Yiwei who were watching the night, but with the status of expressing the emergency in Liaodong Babaili, the journey was smooth.

Letters are passed on layer by layer.

Finally arrived at the gate of the palace.

The imperial palace has already been closed, and as a rule, once the gate of the imperial palace is half closed, it will never be opened before dawn.

Even if it's eight hundred miles to rush, it won't work.

But fortunately, there is a way to deal with this urgent situation, that is to go through the cashier door, which cannot be opened at night, but there is a small opening in the door, people cannot pass through, but it can deliver urgent memorials.

The emperor rested and slept in Empress Xiao's palace.

Although the couple are also old, the relationship between husband and wife is better than those of young beauties.

"His Majesty."

"His Majesty."

Empress Xiao woke up and pushed the emperor to wake up.

"Your Majesty, there is a king's servant outside asking for an interview, saying that Yintai Gate has eight hundred miles to send the urgent memorial. It is from Liaodong. It is said that something happened to Luo Cheng."

Hearing that Liaodong, Luo Cheng, eight hundred miles hastened, Yang Guang woke up suddenly.

"Luo Cheng turned his back?" Yang Guang asked.

The king's servant comes in.

"Back to the Supreme, the Yintai Gate has passed into Liaodong [-] miles and hastened to report. Four days ago, Luo Cheng was assassinated in Liaodong. The crowd is raging, and there is a danger of mutiny."

Now the emperor was dumbfounded.

Luo Cheng didn't turn back, Luo Cheng was assassinated, Yu Wenhuaji made a move?
But he clearly remembered that he just asked Yu Wenhuaji to go to Liaodong to proclaim the decree, and asked Luo Cheng to return to Beijing, why did he start the assassination?

"Bring the memorial!"

Empress Xiao asked the palace servants to light up the lights and put on clothes for the emperor himself.

Yang Guang quickly scanned the rush note.

The prelude was sent by Wang Rengong, which explained in detail the beginning and end of the assassination case.

"This Yu Huaji, you bastard!"

Yang Guang believed in Wang Rengong's words.

Wang Rengong explained the cause and effect in detail in the letter. Yu Wenhua arrived in Huaiyuan, summoned him, and asked him to take him to Anshi quietly, and asked him to trick Luo Cheng to the Liaoxi army barracks under his name. Culture and arrangements made.

When Luo Cheng came, Wang Rengong told him about the decree in front of the camp. Although Luo Cheng was surprised, he said that he would accept the decree and return to Beijing.But at this moment, Yu Wenhuaji's men went down and shot Luo Cheng down.

In this memorial, Wang Rengong also told the emperor another news.

That is, before Luo Cheng sent troops against the decree, he had already won the battle. Luo Cheng defeated Yuangai Suwen's [-] soldiers at the foot of Siping Mountain in the east of Andong, beheaded thousands of people, and captured more than [-] soldiers. Then he returned to the city of Shi'an, They stormed Anshi, broke the city, beheaded thousands, and captured more than [-] people.

Luo Cheng had already achieved a victory to the emperor, but the speed of the victory was slow, and the rush of eight hundred miles was the first to arrive first.

"I really misunderstood Luo Cheng. He was loyal to me, diligent in the affairs of the king, and just made great achievements, but in the end..." Yang Guang couldn't continue, because he didn't trust Luo Cheng at all. On the contrary, it was Yu Wenhuaji who always said that it was just in case, and always used Yang Xuangan as an example, so he finally agreed to call Luo Cheng back to Beijing.

But who would have expected that Luo Cheng would make such great contributions to him after resisting the edict in Liaodong, yet he would send someone to proclaim the edict for Luo Cheng to return to Beijing to question his crimes, which really chilled the hearts of the soldiers and heroes.

At this time, he didn't realize at all that in this matter, he was actually the real decision maker, and Yu Wenshu was just the speaker.

But the emperor didn't think so at all, he felt that he was right, and it was Yu Wenshu and Yu Wenhuaji who were wrong.

"Your Majesty, the [-] Liaodong soldiers are now agitated, and they must be appeased immediately, otherwise they are afraid of trouble."

Empress Xiao made a suggestion to the emperor.

"That's right, the Liaodong soldiers must be appeased."

"Your Majesty, Luo Cheng's resistance to the decree is a matter for the king, and he is willing to return to Beijing immediately after the matter is completed, which shows that he is loyal. Now he is unconscious after being assassinated. At this time, His Majesty should issue a decree to reward and comfort him. This will also calm the hearts of Liaodong soldiers. .”

"Okay, then I take back my previous will."

"It is not enough to withdraw the will, it must be rewarded.

At this time, Yang Guang felt full of guilt towards Luo Cheng, and he was not reluctant to give up the reward, which was also a kind of compensation psychology.

"What's the reward?"

After thinking about it, Yang Guang felt that Luo Cheng's loyalty had withstood the test, and now he was injured because of it. Need a handy reward to appease the morale of the army.

"Queen, do you think Luo Cheng won't be able to wake up? I heard that the arrow hit his chest and he was seriously injured." Yang Guang suddenly thought of a more difficult problem. What if Luo Cheng died like this? what to do?
