One person guards the lonely city, invincible in the world

Chapter 16 Don't Be Crazy
Holy City.

Yueya took off her cloak and came to a majestic mansion.

After handing over the invitation card, he walked into the extremely luxurious living room with the concierge. The roasted lamb was served on the table, and there were countless colorful robes and dresses in the banquet.

She is very good at hiding the anger in her eyes. Grandma is sad in the Western Regions, but Hu Yanshou is leisurely in the holy city. Is it fair?

"you are?"

A fat old man in a purple robe and a gold belt slowly walked over. It was Hu Yanshou, a very powerful judge in the center.

He has a typical phoenix eye and a hooked nose, and when he moves his lips, he will move his nose and forehead, like a ouroboros swimming under the skin.

"Yue San's granddaughter." Yue Ya replied respectfully.

Hu Yanshou frowned deeply, and the important officials of the central government avoided contacting the officials of the frontier.

But everyone is here, so we can't drive people away.

"Talk inside." He paced around a few times, came to the cramped and hidden tea room, and looked back at Yueya who was following him:
"Congratulations to the Yue family, there is a Tianjiao who stirs up luck."

"There is no such thing as Yue Invincible." Yueya retorted coldly.

Hu Yanshou was not angry, but said in a deep voice:
"If you deceive the emperor, you will be beheaded!"

It has nothing to do with him, he just wants to know the purpose of this trip.

The attitude of the woman in front of her was not respectful at all, as if she was here to ask the teacher for a crime.

"Are you questioning the old man?" As expected of a treacherous and cunning central official, he could infer Yueya's emotions just by observing.

"That's right." Yueya said directly, "Does the Judge still have any impression of Kucha City?"

Hu Yanshou sat on a low stool, poured a pot of tea calmly, and said softly:

"It's a long time ago. Could it be that those hundreds of white-headed old soldiers are still dead?"

"Dead, there is only one guard named Gu Chang'an left." Yueya tried her best to restrain her anger, and then stared at him:
"The isolated city still stands in the Western Regions, and the flag of the Tang Dynasty is planted half a mile outside the city. It is the throwing of soil that causes ripples in the abyss of luck."

Hu Yanshou's expression froze for an instant, and the teacup fell to pieces.

"Speak in one breath!" His eyes were sharp as needles.

"Zhelansu was forced to run away, and my Yuezhi lost four thousand soldiers."

Looking at the increasingly gloomy face of this pampered old man, Yue Ya continued to make up the knife mercilessly:

"You heard me right. Gu Chang'an, a Han slave, killed four thousand guards and thirty guards with one sword. It is unknown how many Zhe Lansu died."

Hu Yanshou clenched his fists tightly, his eyebrows and eyes trembled, and he looked like an angry King Kong, and said sinisterly:

"Absurd and bizarre, the Arabian Nights."

"Make up a ghost story, what's the plan?!"

Yueya stared at him.

"Joke!" Hu Yanshou adjusted his emotions and calmed down:
"Speak to the mountain ghost? One man, one sword, can kill through the army, even the devil of hell can't do it!"

Yue Yayu's cheeks were ice-cold, and the voice almost came out of her cavity:

"I have traveled thousands of miles, and seven horses were exhausted on the way. I just came here to tell a joke to the high-ranking judge, huh?!"

Hu Yanshou was caught off guard and fell back in fright, slumping to the ground.

He could tell that it wasn't a fake at all, these words were like a bolt from the blue!
"No one can stay out of this mess." Yue Ya's eyes were gloomy.

The Yue family has already deceived the emperor, and they are still afraid of offending the old man Huyan?
Grasshoppers on the same rope must work together or die together!
Zhelan old dog runs fast, but you Huyan old man can't!

"What mess, does it have something to do with the old man?" Hu Yanshou got up calmly, and pretended to be calm and straightened his hair.

"Who was the last Qiqianli Sanctioner?" Yueya sneered.

Hu Yanshou remained calm:
"The crime is all Zhe Lansu's. He has failed the high expectations of the empire, and he is ashamed of being crowned by the gods. He has no choice but to commit suicide."

"Your grandmother's loss of half a mile of the empire is already an unforgivable crime. This old man will make a statement to the center and try not to affect the Yue family."

Yueya was out of breath, looked at the murals in the tea room, and said coldly:

"You picked it clean, right?"

"Otherwise?" Hu Yanshou asked back, his emotions suddenly lost control, and he roared fiercely from the corner of his eyes:
"waste!"

"How can Zhe Lansu still have the face to live in this world!"

"The old man resigned, only the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are left in the lonely city..."

"Why not kill?" Yueya cut off his words.

Hu Yanshou opened his mouth, and suddenly smiled distortedly.

commit a sin! !
"When a person is promoted, he is still the judge of the decision-making level of the empire. He is eager to grow eight legs and run into the holy city. Why do he care about the little troubles in front of him?"

"You could have completely eradicated it back then, but because of a single thought, it has caused irreversible consequences."

Yueya stated unhurriedly, this is what her grandmother taught her to say.

That's right, it happened to be exactly what Hu Yanshou was thinking at the time.

He bowed his head dejectedly, as if fate was playing tricks on purpose.

The moment he received the imperial edict, he had already put the Qiqianli matter behind him, and his successor Zhe Lansu would help him deal with the city of Kucha no matter from any angle of interest.

"Gu Chang'an is really so shocking?" Hu Yanshou's eyes widened in disbelief.

Yueya was silent, disgusted to describe how terrible Hannu was.

"Hahahaha... one person is creating an epic miracle!" Hu Yanshou's veins were bulging, and his tone was hysterical.

As long as there is a choice, the old witch will not deceive the gods.

And Zhe Lansu, that old bastard, would rather punish himself and be demoted than leave the quagmire.

Combining everything, Hu Yanshou deeply understands that the seven thousand miles of the Western Regions is already a calamity volcano.

Can't explode!
"Block the news, continue to cover it tightly!" He squirmed his lips, and he had lost the intention of threatening.

No amount of intimidation can change the fact that he is guilty.

Once exposed, relying on the resources in the power field and relatively minor crimes, he is likely to be exempted from Lingchi, but he will definitely lose his official title.

I only climbed to this position at the age of 65, and I was one step away from being an extremely human minister. What is the difference between losing power and dying?
"Then trouble your lord to borrow troops." Yue Ya said in a deep voice.

Hu Yanshou stared at her coldly, with a rough and angry tone:
"The old witch is the official of the frontier, the old man is in the center, and he borrowed soldiers, what does the old witch think?!"

"Sooner or later, you will be killed by this group of insects. What is wrong with this old man?"

Seeing that he still felt innocent, Yue Ya scolded:

"The old dog Zhelan took over your mess, isn't he innocent? Grandma was tricked, more innocent than you!"

"Borrowing troops is impossible." Hu Yanshou said in a deep voice with his face covered with clouds:

"Allocate money and food, we must eradicate the isolated city!"

"Can the food pile kill Gu Chang'an?" Yueya also knew that borrowing troops was pure nonsense, and it was just a bargaining chip in the negotiation.

"Weapons and the three masters of the third rank must be masters who can easily crush the Peach Blossom Sword and Fushang!"

Hu Yanshou did not refute:
"Weapons can be given, masters need time to arrange."

"Let them come to the Western Regions as soon as possible." Yue Ya said seriously.

As expected by his grandmother, the old man Huyan was also cowardly and fearful.

The tea room fell into a long dead silence, and the atmosphere was as stiff as iron.

Hu Yanshou paced back and forth, and suddenly said harshly:
"Persuade to surrender first."

Yueya was exhausted, she leaned against the wall and said:

"Do you want to witness the bloody scene of him killing four thousand troops? How can you persuade such a Han slave who vowed to die for the old dynasty to be buried?"

Hu Yanshou shuddered, he didn't even dare to imagine that scene of hell.

In the disintegrated Chinese civilization, there is still such a stupid guardian.

"It must be persuaded to surrender. Even if Gu Chang'an is dead, it doesn't mean that the traces of Wanli Gucheng's existence can be covered up. One day, something will come out."

"At that time, we will be spared the death penalty, and the living penalty will be inevitable!"

"Only surrender!"

"Imagine that an isolated city that has stood firm for more than 60 years has changed hands, and such an unrivaled figure holding a torch in the dark has surrendered. As long as it is exposed, it can completely disintegrate the will of the Eastern Central Plains!"

"In China, who dares to say that he is more desperate than Gu Changan? Even if he can't hold on, who has the courage to resist?"

Hu Yanshou's eyes were burning, and he spoke firmly during the call.

Yue Ya pursed her lips.

The dog day old man is also celebrating the funeral, and wants to take the opportunity to gain political capital.

According to the blueprint he drew, maybe His Majesty the Gods will really pardon them for deceiving the king, and even reward them.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Gu Changan, that Hannu, was no longer just a person, but a great spiritual belief.

Hu Yanshou's eyes flickered, and he thought for a moment:
"There is a seventh-rank sesame official in the officialdom of this old man. I heard that his wife's ancestral home is Chang'an, and the whole family defected to the Holy City, a lighthouse in the world."

"Let her persuade you to surrender?" Yueya asked.

"It's called Chang'an. Chang'an is closer and can penetrate the soul." Hu Yanshou made up his mind and added:

"The old man has to deal with it. No matter what the result is, the woman must die in the Western Regions."

"I understand." Yueya nodded.

This is also my grandmother's policy. You can travel seven thousand miles, but not even a fly can fly out.

"If persuasion fails, don't act rashly."

"When the experts arranged by the old man arrive, they will completely burn the Gucheng without leaving any traces, and grind Gu Chang'an into powder."

After a pause, the high-ranking old man almost begged:

"Get things done, don't let everyone be doomed."

"The Daman Empire now sits on a territory of 2000 million miles. As long as the Divine Continent is swallowed up, the Supreme Kingdom of God can be created. We can't die on the mountainside, we must accept the applause of glory on the mountain."

Yueya nodded her head heavily, staring at the flickering lights.

Why do people have such a desire for power?Because heaven favored the empire after——

Stronger than ever!
Being in it is a kind of honor that can shine through the ages, and her ambition and dream must not be destroyed by that slave Gu Changan.

……

……

……

A round of bright moon hangs alone in the desert.

The lapse of nearly four months is very long for the isolated city. For the watchtower patrolling back and forth, the peach trees have been seen thousands of times. Fortunately, the peach blossoms do not change with the seasons. They are bright red and lush every day and never wither.

"It's finally here." Gu Changan murmured to himself, he didn't know what the barbarians were brewing after being silent for so long.

The yellow sand rolled up, hundreds of riders galloped across the desert, stopped a few miles away, Yueya took off her golden helmet, and stared coldly at the eye-catching blood-colored flag.

"Go." She stared sideways at a dusty woman.

How could a woman get used to the desert, her fair skin was chapped, the corners of her mouth were dry and faded, and her hands were tightly clutching the corners of her skirt.

She was kidnapped here in a cloud of mist, and the idea instilled in her was to persuade her to surrender.

"Go!" Yueya held the purple whip in her hand, and made a gesture to whip it off.

Knowing that she has no ability to resist, the woman silently picked up the kettle and walked towards the lonely city.

In just a few miles, I walked for more than an hour with only my feet, the moonlight was getting darker, and the chill was getting stronger.

All her grievances and fears disappeared after seeing the white figure at the top of the wall, and turned into boundless shock.

"Get out!"

On the land close to the flag, Gu Changan jumped down and stared at her indifferently.

"I... I am from Chang'an." Facing the strong wind, the woman forcefully said these words.

Gu Changan was expressionless, squinting at the barbarians in the distance, maybe it was the familiar accent of the Central Plains that made him not draw his sword immediately.

It's good to listen more.

"To persuade you to surrender?"

He walked over calmly.

Staring at this immature and handsome face, the woman suddenly felt the urge to cry.

On the road to the Western Regions, she was only a myth and legend, and at that time she couldn't hear any noise because of fear.

But seeing this blood-stained isolated city with her own eyes, and the man standing on the top of the city, her heart endured an unimaginable impact.

She has also read poetry and books, and she has also read historical records, but how can Huanghuang Huaxia be so tragic and lonely?
The most desperate thing is that no one in Central Plains knows who this man is!
"You are too bitter." Her eyes were red, and she couldn't hold back her emotions.

"Are you really from Chang'an?" Gu Chang'an examined her.

"Well, 20 years ago..." The woman hesitated to speak, not daring to say that the family sneaked into the holy city.

In front of this man, defection is not only a humiliation, but a heinous crime deep in the soul.

She didn't have the courage to say it at all.

"Tell me about Chang'an, I haven't been there yet." Gu Chang'an smiled.

The woman's eyes were full of tears, and the man wandering alone in the abyss actually had a pair of clean and clear eyes, and she could vaguely see the color full of longing.

She wiped away the remaining tears from the corners of her eyes, and Chang'an in her memory came to mind, and she said eloquently:
"Chang'an, when you enter the city, you can see peonies in full bloom, blooming all over the four streets and eight avenues. The poet praised it as 'the world's unparalleled beauty, the world's most fragrant'."

"The most prosperous is Suzaku Long Street. There are rows of plane trees and weeping willows planted on both sides of the wide and flat street. Rich men ride horses through the streets, and poor scholars lean on the plane trees to read."

"It was dawn, and farmers in the suburbs of Beijing came rolling in with carts of fresh melons, fruits and vegetables; young women gathered by the river to wash their clothes, and the warm wind brushed their fluttering hair; there were also various stalls, and the fragrance enveloped the whole city. On the street, the poor can only stay away."

"..."

Gu Chang'an was fascinated by it, maybe it was because of the woman's gentle and gentle tone, maybe it was because of the beautiful scenery she described.

He loves the taste of the market and the smiling faces of the common people.

"You should take a look at Chang'an City." The woman whispered.

Gu Changan remained silent, shaking his head:
"I like Chang'an very much, just as I like my own name, just listening to it is already enough."

"Are you willing?" The woman is not only for her own mission, but also suffering from the heart.

"You should be a monument that cannot be bypassed by the glorious history, but now you are not cared about by anyone."

"The fall of Shenzhou is not because of you, not because of us ordinary people, nor the soldiers guarding the frontier, but because of the reckless behavior of those superiors! It is the turmoil caused by Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty. Otherwise, how could heaven favor the border barbarians!"

Gu Changan stared at her excited flushed cheeks, and said softly:

"I understand the truth, I am not for the Li Dynasty, I want to save the common people."

"In the past, at the end of the Jin Dynasty, the five chaos in China, in the darkest era of history, the Chinese civilization still stands firm."

"But now the barbarians are favored by heaven!"

"This time the descendants of Yan and Huang have fallen, maybe it will be difficult again."

"The situation is already so difficult, how can I go with the flow."

The woman was dumbfounded, as if she was facing a huge boulder in front of her, and she couldn't move it no matter what.

"They said that as long as you surrender, the old and weak, women and children in the city will be escorted to Chang'an by them, and the ashes and fallen leaves of the Anxi army will return to their roots, and the souls of heroes will return to their hometowns."

Gu Changan's body was stiff, isn't this what he dreamed of?
"You are not ashamed of being a hero, Shenzhou is ashamed, and Zhongyuan is ashamed." The woman said sincerely.

Gu Chang'an stared blankly at the flag, turned to look at every inch of territory around him, and said cautiously:

"Can you give me a hug?"

Without hesitation, the woman gently embraced her not-so-slender body, which smelled of peach blossoms.

It was the first time that Gu Changan felt the warmth from outside the city. He hugged the woman silently and remained silent for a long time.

Looking at this scene, the eyes of Yue Ya and the others flickered. Could it be that they were really moved by the people of Chang'an?

"Our Chinese descendants have surrendered, is there still Huaxia?"

"I gritted my teeth and walked through a long dark abyss, and I couldn't do it halfway."

Hearing the hoarse voice, the woman was speechless.

"Actually, I want to die, but I can't die."

"I want to sleep well, I don't want to patrol the city walls like a walking dead every day, but I can't rest."

"I also want to be saved by others, and I also want to live a normal life."

"I'm going crazy. I've told myself countless times not to be crazy, but I can't see a glimmer of hope."

Gu Chang'an babbled, seeming a little delirious.

"If it were someone else, he would have gone crazy a long time ago." The woman said earnestly, and even summoned up the courage to pat him on the shoulder.

"My shoulders are small, and I can't carry a Central Plains nation at the moment of life and death, but I can still carry this territory now."

"You go."

Gu Changan left his embrace suddenly, and walked back to the city gate very calmly.

The woman stood there blankly, let out a long sigh, and was about to turn around and walk back, when suddenly the whole body bled to death from seven orifices.

"Useless Hannu!"

Yueya directly crushed the green Gu worm in her palm, and her eyes seemed to be poisoned.

That leaving back made her go crazy with hatred, and the chips she offered were close to kneeling and licking, but she was ruthlessly humiliated!
Suddenly, her eyes froze.

The moonlight shines on the top of the city, and the snow-white figure dances lightly, with an elegant and forgetful posture, like a lonely remnant soul wandering under the shroud of death, and more like a magnificent picture of waves.

Gu Changan suddenly turned around, roaring hysterically towards the desert:

"Kill me quickly!!!"

The echo echoed endlessly in the windy yellow sand.

Yueya was filled with fear, and her insane madness made her quickly turn the horse's head and gallop towards the distance.

Yes, the next time I come back, I will take away your eyeballs, your nose, your mouth, and every piece of flesh in your body!
