Ji Tang

Chapter 1277 Declaring War!

The army repaired for three days and continued to move out. Ever since Changsun Wuji looked for Ji Song on the first day, he never showed up again.Although the two of them were in the same camp, they seemed to be worlds apart.

However, maybe he didn't get the results he wanted, so he went to Cheng Yaojin and others.But it seems the effect is not ideal!

Yes, people hate bastards. Even bastards like Liu Hongji among these people are not as simple as they seem on the surface.Obviously, a war in the Western Region made him, who had been staying out of it, involuntarily label Ji Song.

Or maybe they are quite happy with it!

Of course I'm happy, who doesn't like a person who can help everyone make money?

But what surprised him was Gao Kan. When he learned that Changsun Wuji had often been in and out of Gao Kan's tent these days, he already understood something.He grabbed Cheng Yaojin, who was about to ask for an explanation, and shook his head: "It's going to rain, and my mother wants to get married, so let him be!"

"Hmph! White-eyed wolf, has he forgotten?"

"All right!"

Ji Song interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "Everyone has the right to choose. No matter what, Paoze, who we have fought side by side, at least before this, is still someone we trust."

"As for...we should respect his choice!"

Everyone was silent, but they had to be impressed by Ji Song's mind.
-
woohoo~
The desolate horn sounded, and the army and baggage that stretched for several miles slowly moved towards Yumen Pass in front.The soldiers rode on war horses and held the ashes of Brother Paoze in their arms. Some died, but they were still alive.They have the obligation to take the ashes of their brothers to their roots and take them home.
The guard of Yumen Pass is still Cao Qin, and Ji Song is also curious that this guy has stayed at Yumen Pass for ten years, which is considered strange.Others were either promoted or transferred to other places. What's more, with the transfer order that rotates every five years, he can still stay in this position for ten years. Without the emperor's operation behind this, it would be impossible!
What does this mean?It shows that this guy is the emperor's confidant, and he is a very important one. The fact that he became the Marquis of Xiping County in the Tang Dynasty without any warning last year is enough to illustrate the problem!

At this time, outside Yumen Pass, Cao Qin led a group of generals out of the city to greet him.

"The general guarding Ximen Pass, Cao Qin, together with a group of soldiers, respectfully welcomes the general to return to the court in victory!"

"We are waiting to welcome the general to return to court after victory!"

"."

Ji Song on the chariot opened the curtain and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, everyone, please get up!"

"promise!"

"Cao Qin!"

"The end is here!"

"Open the way ahead!"

Cao Qin was overjoyed when he heard this and said loudly: "The last general will obey the general!"

So, he turned around and shouted: "The general returns to the court after victory. You will follow me to open the way for the army!"

Boom~
The guards at Ximen Pass separated the two sides to reveal a road. Liu Laoer and Daniu immediately drove forward, followed by the army!

"What a powerful force!"

Changsun Wuji looked at Ji Song with a complicated expression. Even though Ji Song spoke softly and slowly, it was like thunder in the ears of the guard at Ximen Pass.This is prestige, power, and a monstrous momentum created by oneself!
To be honest, if possible, he really didn't want to be an enemy of such a person.It's terrible. Looking at Ji Song's actions since he became an official, it's terrifying just thinking about it!
But things went against expectations. After all, people are not on the same path. Even though it is terrible, they have to face it.It is foreseeable that when the news of Ji Song's return to the DPRK comes out, there will be another uproar in the DPRK.

But when I think about those people who have returned to the dynasty, I am sure that the military aristocrats who have been there for hundreds of years are not vegetarians.After so many years of silence, it’s time to show their faces. Those who didn’t know thought they had all disappeared!
The summer wind is annoyingly hot, but at this time, Longxi, Longyou, Hexi, Youfufeng, and Guanzhong were completely ignited because of a piece of news.

The army that conquered the West has returned to the DPRK!
The Zheng family in Xingyang, the gate of Chang'an.

Zheng Qian, who was sitting in the study, listened to the old butler's report, threw the book on the table and laughed.

"Okay, okay, I'm finally back."

"Some people can't sit still and want to recreate the glory of the past? Bah, they are just a bunch of shameless people who are clinging to each other. Do they really think they are members of aristocratic families? Military aristocrats? Bah! They are neither fish nor fowl, and I am ashamed to be associated with such people! "

In the face of his family master's random remarks, the old housekeeper seemed not to have heard anything and stood there quietly. It was not until Zheng Qian calmed down that he said: "I heard that Duke Zhao went to find Tao before the army arrived at Yumen Pass. Duke, I don’t know what the specific conversation was about, but the two of them have never seen each other since then.”

"It's just." The old housekeeper hesitated.

"Tell me everything you know!" Zheng Qian frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.

"Alang, please calm down. It's just that I don't know whether the news is true or not. It is said that the left prison guard general Gao Kan and Zhao Guogong have a very secret relationship!"

Zheng Qian was stunned for a moment, but then he thought of something and sneered: "If you don't take the good road, you have to take the small road. Has the Bohai Gao family already reached this point?"

The Bohai Gao family was originally the royal family of the Northern Qi Dynasty, but it has been in decline since the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed by the Northern Zhou Dynasty. In addition, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the former Sui Dynasty took precautions, and Gao Ying, who was the former Sui prime minister at the time, was in the wrong team. Afterwards, he was liquidated by Yang Guang, and passed through After a blow, the talents of the Tang Dynasty were even more withered after the establishment of the Tang Dynasty. Now they are relying on a left prison guard general to support their appearance.

"Don't worry about him. If your guess is right, this is the life gate that has been captured. Otherwise, Gao Kan is too stupid to hug Mr. Xi's thigh and instead goes to find Changsun Wuji?"

"It doesn't matter what Gao Kan said. Now that all the demons and monsters are out in Chang'an City, do you really think that you are still the same powerful person as before? Haha, let's wait and see. We can't do anything about that one, but you..."

What happened back then was simply a disgrace to the family, but people put their knives to their necks and wanted to enter your family tree. How could they refuse?If you refuse, everyone will die, so what other choice can you make?
But a hundred years have passed, and Li Daitao is in a state of stalemate, who can still say it clearly?

"You are going to contact the Runan Zhou family and the major families in Jiangdong. I will contact the Lu family and the Pei family. As for the Wang family, let's take a look!"

"promise!"

It wasn't until the old housekeeper left that Zheng Qian recovered his feelings.Although the aristocratic family was suppressed, most of its power gradually shifted outward with the opening of the sea.But the Central Plains has always been the main line, and this will never change.

Over the years, everyone has seen the benefits of going overseas.That is, the emperor's restraint on the aristocratic families has been reduced, although it is impossible to change dynasties as easily as before in the Central Plains.

But the foundation of the aristocratic family is getting thicker and thicker, and it is becoming more and more secure.

At least they won't be caught in one fell swoop. As long as there are no major problems overseas, no surrender to the enemy, treason, or rebellion, the emperor will have no reason to take action against them.

As overseas exculpation becomes more and more intense, overseas nation-building has become an irreversible fact.The establishment of a country by a branch of the Ji family on the original Persian land set an example for everyone.As long as the emperor does not firmly oppose this, they will also start this matter.

So everyone is waiting and watching at this time, and those Longxi military nobles who should have been thrown into the garbage dump long ago are jealous and want to get a share of the pie because they have not tasted the benefits of opening the sea or entered it too late.But how can things be so simple?How can you give up the fat in your mouth?This is digging into their foundation!

The beginning of this incident was the Ji family, so they aimed all their fingers at Ji Song, the Duke of the State of Xi.In order to force Ji and the vested interests behind him to make concessions.

But can you give in?
Absolutely not, this is a group of guys who are addicted to grabbing food, and it is their standard to push even further, so they absolutely cannot back down!
In this matter, the aristocratic families have united to prevent this group of hungry wolves from rising again.

But the Pei family is already weak, the Lu family is half dead, and the Zheng family is pretty good. As for the Wang family, let’s not talk about it!
Calculating over and over, he was shocked to find that the expectations of the five surnames fell apart at this time. Although the foundation was still there, they were unable to fight against those people in a short period of time.

Therefore, now we can only place our hope on Ji.Since ancient times, the Ji and Zhou families have not been separated. When the Ji family just rose to prominence, the Runan Zhou family completely merged with the Ji family.Coupled with the rapid expansion of Jiangdong's world, careful calculation revealed that he no longer belongs to established aristocratic families like them in terms of connections and power.

There are also the nobles of the Tang Dynasty. These are the real Dinghai Shenzhen. They hold military power. Over the years, they have countless disciples in the army. Any middle-level general may have been the subordinates of these people back then.

"Haha, since you want to fight, then let's fight well."
-
At the Duke of Wei's Mansion, Li Desai, who had requested an order to return to Chang'an, called the former officials of the Duke of Wei's Mansion. No one knew what they talked about, but after returning, all his subordinates who had anything to do with those in Longxi were treated differently. level of suppression.

In the army, these people have no ability to fight against others, but it is too much to expect them to stay safe.If it weren't for the strict military laws and the pressure from those in the Military Justice Department, who knows what kind of bad things would happen every day.

Therefore, it is not easy to find their braids!
Not only the Duke of Wei's mansion, but also Cheng Chusi, the young prince of the Duke of Lu's mansion.The mighty Duke, the British Duke, the Langya Duke, etc. all made more or less moves.

Li Shimin, who was watching with cold eyes, also just smiled when he heard the news and ignored it.Logically speaking, he should be cautious when the people below started fighting, but he ignored them and allowed these people to start fighting.

And at this turbulent time, Ji Song had already entered the pass.

The wind is gentle and sunny, but the summer heat in Guanzhong makes people unbearably irritated.But Ji Song, who was watching all this, seemed extremely kind. He ignored the topless Liu Laoer, while he was fishing leisurely by the Wei River.

The summer was hot and there was no rush for time, so Ji Song ordered the army to march while the sun was at its worst.As a result, although the daily march speed was reduced, the soldiers also tried their best to travel when the weather was cold, so the schedule was not reduced much, and it was even accelerated.

Pfft!
A stone was thrown into the water, waking up the fish that was about to bite the hook. Ji Song rolled his eyes in anger.Needless to say, no one here except Pingyang has such courage.

"What are you doing here if you don't have a rest? Are you worried about getting tanned?"

But Pingyang didn't care about this. He poured all Ji Song's bait into the water and felt more and more satisfied watching the fish vying for food.

"Why do you care so much? I thought that when I went to war, I was so black that I was not a human being. What does this mean? Anyway, I am old and don't care anymore!"

Come on, this fish can't be hung.I wanted to take a break from my busy schedule, but if I arrived in Chang'an, I might not have such days.Who would have thought that it would be destroyed again by Pingyang.

Hearing Pingyang's words, he wanted to retort: ​​I don't care that there are so many snow lotus pills every year, don't you want them?
"You seem to be burying me?"

Pingyang looked at the silent Ji Songdao suspiciously.

Ji Song became even more silent after hearing this. Damn woman's unreasonable sixth sense, could she detect this?

But Zui Shao didn't admit it at all: "How is that possible? But you are naturally beautiful. Even if you turn dark, it won't take long for you to change back. This is your real ability."

But Pingyang didn't accept this trick. He stretched out a palm and said decisively: "Five bottles!"

"impossible!"

"Don't even think about it!"

Ji Song became angry immediately, he was not such a bully.Five bottles of snow lotus pills, could it be a simple thing that Pingyang would miss?At least it's hundreds of years old.

"A bottle of at most 500 years old is impossible!"

Pingyang smiled and said quietly: "But how did I hear that my sister told the palace that you had obtained several thousand-year-old snow lotuses? Or were they brought back from the sea?"

Looking at Ji Song, whose face turned purple, she said with a dark face: "Okay, I care about you from the bottom of my heart. It's better for you. If you have something good after all, who in this palace will you care about? Where is your conscience? ?Would it be possible to be eaten by a dog?"

Ji Song:.
"Three bottles, no more!" Ji Songsheng said helplessly.Even if I eat the evil done by my own mother, I have to eat it whole.

"make a deal!"

Ji Song was stunned, looking at the smiling Pingyang, and immediately knew that he had been tricked.

"Hehe, you did this voluntarily, I didn't force you."

"."

Ji Song was speechless. Who are these people? They all stick to their appearance and are not afraid of being bald?

"Okay, let's get down to business!"

Pingyang's expression changed and he said solemnly: "I have received news that those guys have arrived in Chang'an. Your Majesty met with them and promised that everyone will rely on their own abilities and the royal family will not interfere."

"Haha, you are quite active when you get benefits, but you just don't care when things happen?" Ji Song sneered.

"This matter is not as simple as you think. You will not forget the surname of this palace and your majesty's mother, right?"

Of course I know, who doesn't know about the curse of Dou?
The prestige of a thousand-year-old family cannot be explained clearly in one or two sentences, but is the Ji family afraid of them?In terms of foundation, the Ji family is more distant than them, and there is no gap between them, and they never lose in momentum.

It's not that he didn't know that the Dou family had taken action against the Ji family overtly or covertly over the years, but he had chopped off all those who stretched out their claws.It just seems like they don’t have a long memory!

"Okay, since you won't take action, then just watch. I just hope that I won't take action in the end!"

Ji said indifferently: "Since you want to play, let's have fun. I want to see how much heritage the Millennium Family has left after that disaster?"

"Want to eat meat? Haha, then you must have the ability to eat meat. If you don't have the ability, you will only deserve to eat shit!"

Ji turned around and left without looking back: "Tell them that I will accompany you at any time. After all, they have the right to start a war, but I have the final say on when to end this war."

Pingyang stared blankly at Ji Song who was walking away, and lamented, "It's not good to offend anyone. I just hope that things don't go to the worst direction if I offend this person."
