Chapter 26 Too Interesting
"Everyone suffers!"

On the way to the Daguan Lingguan, Yunchu saw a shop selling sesame oil and picked out a signboard with these four characters written on it.

Lao Yangpi was standing under the signboard, and the huge signboard seemed to be carried on his back, like an old turtle dragging a huge monument.

There were quite a few pedestrians on the street, and one of them even touched the old sheepskin's black sheepskin cloak with his hand.

Even so, Lao Yangpi seemed to only have Yunchu in his eyes.

Yunchu said to Lao Yangpi: "It's not that hard, one's own happiness needs to be obtained with both hands, and only those who cannot obtain it will feel pain.

I have never complained about my life in the Huihe tribe, and I would not complain about my life among the Tang people either.

In my past life, I realized a truth, that is to live well and try not to let other chores affect me to live the life I want to live.

Mr. Shi, you should think the same way, try to live your few days as well as possible, so that you can smile before you die. "

"Yunchu, take me to Chang'an."

He didn't believe a single word that Lao Yangpi said to Yun Chu, just like Yun Chu didn't believe every word he said.

Yunchu took out a business card from his bosom, put it lightly on Lao Yangpi's hand and said, "Go by yourself, I know you are unwilling, four years ago, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty presided over Master Xuanzang personally. Entered the ceremony of ascension to the seat of Daci'en Temple.

I learned from the documents that the temple built by the current Tian Khan is very gorgeous, you can go and see it.

I think, with Master Xuanzang's mercy, he will take you in, protect you, and promise to let you live the life you want in the country of Tang Dynasty. "

Lao Yangpi shook his head lightly and said, "I have been waiting here for six years, just waiting for you to go back together."

Yun Chu's pupils couldn't help shrinking, and he immediately calmed down and said with a smile, "Why me?"

Lao Yangpi raised his head and looked at the sky, as if he was lost in memory. After a while, he withdrew his eyes from exile to Qingtian, looked at Yunchu and said seriously: "When Xuanzang and I crossed the vast sea, we encountered a lonely mountain. When he was resting on the mountain peak, a rock that Xuanzang was relying on was cracked, and there was a monk sitting cross-legged inside.

After the monk opened his eyes, he asked Xuanzang: Which is the prosperous era of the Buddha year now?

Xuanzang said: It is Amitabha Buddha.

The monk asked again: "Where did the Dilan Buddha go?"
Xuanzang said: "Nature is nirvana, nature returns to nothingness.

The monk said: "I have been sleeping for 6000 years, and I thought the world had already returned to peace, but I didn't expect it to be so noisy. Go to sleep, go to sleep, it is better to sleep.

Just when the monk was about to enter extinction again, he opened his eyes again, looked at Qiuci not far away and said: Interesting, interesting, very interesting.

After speaking, he sank to the ground. "

Yun Chu smiled and said, "You say I'm the one that's interesting?"

Lao Yangpi frowned and said: "I'm not sure, Xuanzang left and asked me to stay, just to see what the interesting thing is.

Five years ago, after I saw you in the Aries department, you were the most interesting person and thing I could find.

So, if I go to Tang Dynasty, you should go with me. I did not practice Buddhism well, but Xuanzang did well. Let him see if you are interesting as that monk said. "

As Lao Yangpi was talking, he raised his hand and tore up the business office that Yunchu put in his hand. With a light blow, the pieces of paper fell to the ground like butterflies.

Yun Chu looked at Lao Yangpi's back and said, "I won't change my plan, and I won't change my plan because of anyone!"

Lao Yangpi stood in the crowd, looked back at Yunchu and said, "Why bother!"

As Lao Yangpi disappeared into the crowd, Yunchu couldn't help shivering, and when he looked up again, he could truly feel the scorching sun above his head and the noisy crowd around him.

"Don't be intimidated by what he said, no one can know the ins and outs of Lao Tzu..."

Yun Chu muttered to himself and walked into the official office of Daguan Ling.

Habitually passing the sleeping Fangzheng, Yunchu sat on the short edge of the corner, opened the paperwork he was about to read, put aside distracting thoughts, and began to read it seriously.

When Fangzheng woke up, the reed mat was already covered with his sweat. He picked up the water urn and took a deep breath, then turned to look at Yun Chu who was quietly sitting in the corner reading documents, and said, "Except for reading documents. , have you nothing else to do besides writing letters to people?
Young people should look like young people.

It is also a good thing to go to the fence to see those orchids dancing without clothes. Some orchids don't have such a strong smell.

You shut yourself in the yamen every day like this, you don't look like a young man at all. "

Yun Chu lazily said, "I'm still treating you guys to dinner."

"You are the least youthful person I have ever met."

Fangzheng did not intend to let go of the opportunity to educate Yunchu.

Yun Chu thought for a while and said, "Am I really not like a young man?"

Fangzheng laughed loudly and said, "When I was your age, I never stopped for a moment, walking horses, fighting cocks, hunting, pouncing, beating Mr., bullying little girls. I was either on the road or being beaten all day long. "

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I don't like being beaten, it's better like this."

Fangzheng put down the water jar and said, "I have a brother-in-law."

Yun Chu nodded and said, "Brother-in-law is indeed very powerful."

"He thinks what you said is very reasonable."

"What I said is very reasonable. You should say it first. It's what I said."

"Repair Kucha City, and then collect heavy taxes."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I never said that, let alone rebuilding Qiucha City.

If the city walls and gates are repaired and heavy taxes are collected, it will be causing trouble for ourselves. At that time, you will no longer have time to sleep late, and I will have no time to be in a daze. "

Fangzheng sighed and said, "If we don't build city walls or gates, and don't collect taxes, our good days are basically over."

Yunchu remembered what Lao Yangpi said before leaving, his heart sank suddenly, he looked up at Fangzheng and said, "What happened?"

Fangzheng sighed and said, "The leader of the Western Turks, Ashina Helu, declared himself Shaboleo Khan.

In March, Sabolo Khan invaded Tingzhou, went down to Jinling City and Pulei County, and killed 720 military and civilian merchants of the Tang Dynasty! "

Yun Chu stretched out his hand and said, "Bring me the document and let me have a look."

Fangzheng took out a crumpled document from his sleeve, and Yunchu took it over while looking at it and asked, "What is the imperial court's attitude towards this matter? After all, the matter happened in March, plus the early research and judgment time, The imperial court should have countermeasures at this time, right?"

Fangzheng snorted coldly and said, "It's good to say that there were no casualties in the Tang Dynasty. Some people died, and more than 700 people died. Although most of them were businessmen, most of these businessmen were the domestic slaves of my great Tang nobles.

So, this matter has reached the heavens, and that Ashina Helu has no other way out except to use his own head to apologize. "

Yunchu studied every word above carefully, and kept saying: "Tingzhou is [-] miles away from Kucha, that is to say, if they plan to trouble us, they should be there soon."

Fangzheng laughed grimly and said, "I'm afraid he won't come. He's coming soon, and the murderer king of our Tang Dynasty is also here. This time it depends on who kills the most."

Yun Chu raised his head and said, "How to say?"

Fangzheng took out another document from his sleeve and said: "When the news spread to the capital, His Majesty was furious, and sent Marquis Marquis General Liang Jianfang, General You Xiaowei Qi Bihe Li as the chief of Gongyue Dao, General You Xiaowei Gao Deyi, General Xue Gu and Wu Ren of the Marquis of Right, as deputy, sent 3 soldiers from Qin, Cheng, Qi, and Yongfu and [-] horsemen from Huihe to beg for them...

Liang Jianfang is here. This time, if a large number of Hu people in the Western Regions do not die, they will be sorry for Wuhou Liang Jianfang's reputation as a god-killer.

This old guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp. When he followed Emperor Taizong to conquer Goguryeo and was responsible for guarding the left wing of the army, he spent two full years and almost killed all the Hu people in Heishui Mohe.

This time, he's here... Hehe, those barbarians are living a good life, but they really like courting death. "

Yun Chu continued to read the documents, and read the two documents over and over several times, and finally asked, "Where is Marquis Wu?"

"Sandbar!"

"No, what happened in March, it doesn't make sense that we don't know about it, but Chang'an knew about it first, and even the army was ready. The most outrageous thing is that the general who commanded the army has already entered the Western Region."

Fangzheng rolled his eyes at Yunchu and said, "What do you want to do so much, that bastard named Ashina Helu killed more than [-] of our military, civilian and businessmen, so he deserves that he can't survive this year, the whole family can't survive this year.

What we have to do is to repair the city of Qiucha as soon as possible. The Ninth Regiment of Zhechong Mansion is unwilling to enter Kucha because of Guo Xiaoke’s tragic situation. The old man Wuhou is here, and he will definitely be stationed in Kucha. We must rush to Wuhou Before coming here, repair the city wall of Qiuci City as soon as possible, and secure the city gate. If it weren't for the lack of water here, maybe a moat would have to be dug. "

"Since your ass is on fire, why are you still asleep?"

Fangzheng laughed loudly and said, "There are only eleven people in our Daguanling Yamen, do you rely on us to build the city walls and gates?
Don't worry, my brother-in-law will bring someone here tomorrow. "

"Which brother-in-law?"

"Cao Pei Dongfeng, a householder in the Protectorate's Mansion."

Hearing what Fangzheng said, Yunchu heaved a sigh of relief, and after filing the two documents, he leaned far away from Fangzheng, who was as hot as charcoal fire, and said, "This means that these barbarians in the city are going to be used as laborers. ?”

Fangzheng nodded and said, "Yes, when people go to work as laborers to build the city and gates, the livestock and food they bring will be confiscated on the spot and used as military rations."

Yun Chu shook his head with a smile and said, "If you do this, the newly prosperous Kucha City will once again become a deserted city."

Fangzheng took another sip of cold water and said, "Whatever, as long as Marquis Wu is satisfied, it's no big deal to destroy Kucha.

No more, Kucha City, our brothers might go to Xizhou to work as errands, where the conditions are better. "
