Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 218

The heavy snow that had fallen for four consecutive days finally stopped, the thick clouds gradually dissipated, and the long-lost sun peeked out quietly, bringing people a rare warmth in the severe winter, and they stayed in the military tent for several days The generals of the Tang Dynasty obviously enjoyed this rare leisure time, and they all flocked to the martial arts arena to play and have fun. The excitement was like naughty children, even Li Xian, who is the coach, was no exception. , happily playing with a group of generals to build snowmen, competing who can build faster and higher, and the barracks is full of noisy joy.

"Your Highness, news from the capital has arrived."

The joyful time always seemed to be extremely short. Before the snowman was piled up, Luo Tong had already appeared, and whispered to Li Xian's ear.

"Yeah." Li Xian nodded calmly, patted the snow ball in his hand on the half-pile snowman, then clapped his hands with a smile, and told Liu Ziming who was waiting on the side: "Ziming, the rest I'll leave it to you, don't lose the face of this king, if you lose, hey, half a month of your military salary will be deducted."

"what……"

Li Xian competed with Jiang Ye, Li He and other young generals. Liu Ziming was happily in front of the audience, but when he heard Li Xian's words, he was immediately dumbfounded. Xian had already gone away, and seeing that all the generals were building vigorously, and did not give up just because Li Xian left, he couldn't help becoming anxious, screaming strangely, and rushed forward, busy with dancing hands and feet When he opened it, the rushing look immediately caused the onlookers to burst into laughter.

The letter was not long, it was just a small piece of paper in a small brass tube, even if it was densely written on it, it was only a few dozen sentences, but Li Xian stared at it for a long time, and the more he read it, the more he read it. His face became more and more gloomy, and after being speechless for a while, he shook his hands and crumpled the note into a ball, and when he rubbed his hands together, it immediately turned into crumbs all over the floor.

Trouble finally came—the impatient Li Xian brazenly launched an offensive against the Prince's side. Taking advantage of the completion of the new canal in Longmen Mountain, he immediately mobilized his ministers to jointly impeach the governor of the river, Yang Wulian, in the name of the river workers. Greedy with nothing to count, all kinds of evidence are conclusive and detailed, he insisted on slapping the prince's side heavily, the prince was caught off guard and did not dare to protect Yang Wulian, he could only sit and watch him be sent to prison, and soon the two sides surrounded the river again A fierce court battle broke out over the candidate for the governor's successor. This time Li Xian, who was obviously weak in the court, was at a disadvantage despite his efforts to fight, but Li Xian refused to give in half a step. When it came to the imperial court, the commotion became louder and louder. In the end, Empress Wu came forward to make a verdict, each with [-] boards. Both sides' proposed successors were rejected, and Jia Dayin, a member of Zhongshushe, took over the important post of governor of Hegong.

Li Xian, Jia Dayin, had never had much acquaintance in this life, but in the last life he was quite angry with this person, probably because this guy is the absolute confidant of Empress Wu, a man with a sweet heart and a sword, and the same as the treacherous Prime Minister Li Yifu back then. It's similar, but the ability is very mediocre, far inferior to Li Yifu's outstanding performance, and he failed to climb to the high position of prime minister. It seems that this kind of villain has become the governor of the river in such a grandiose way. Things can only be done by Empress Wu.

The snipe and the clam fight each other, and the fisherman wins. This has been the case since ancient times, but what, what!Although Li Xian had expected such a scene to happen as early as when he handed over the evidence of Yang Wulian's corruption to Li Xian, but when it really happened, Li Xian couldn't help being a little angry. Of course, Li Xian Obviously there is no way to do this—it is disgusting to let Empress Wu gain power, but it is better than being tossed away by the prince. Now that this matter has started, it is conceivable that the next one will completely tear the face The crown prince and Li Xian will inevitably have to fight fiercely for a few more times. Under such circumstances, the crown prince naturally can't take care of Li Xian. I can only make plans after returning to the court, and all I can do now is to sit back and watch the changes. After Li Xian paced back and forth in the tent for a few steps, his heart has gradually calmed down, which is a big deal. Stepping to the back of the copywriting, he wrote a secret letter, telling Di Renjie to grasp the overall situation, and he could only be submissive, and he must not be easily involved in the struggle between the prince and Li Xian.

"Your Highness, Princess Mingyue has arrived outside the gate of the camp."

Before Li Xian put down his pen, a personal guard hurried in from outside the tent, bowed his body, and reported loudly.

"Ok?"

Hearing that Princess Mingyue was coming, Li Xian couldn't help being taken aback, and the hand that put down the pen stopped in the air. Gen Xian, although I was quite amazed by Princess Mingyue at the dust-cleaning banquet a few days ago, that's all. At most, I no longer object to accepting her as a side concubine. As for the rest, Li Xian really doesn't have much Coupled with the heavy snow these days, Li Xian has no interest in going out. He has been resting in the camp all along, completely forgetting about Princess Mingyue. The reception really made Li Xian a little nervous.

"Please, ah, no, the king will meet you in person."

People are coming, it is really unreasonable not to meet the last time, Li Xian smiled helplessly, stood up, originally planned to let him enter the camp by himself, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was inappropriate , immediately turned around, sealed the sealed envelope on the couplets into a small copper tube, and threw it to Luo Tong casually, then walked out of the large tent of the Chinese army, and strode towards the gate.

The Tang army's barracks were not in the city, but in some places outside the east gate. It's not that there was no place to stay in the city. In fact, before Li Xian's troops arrived in Khotan, Fu Jiaxiong had already sent people to clean them up. A large barracks in the south of the city was thought to be the place where the Tang army was stationed, but Li Xian declined Fu Yuxiong and insisted on placing the barracks outside the city. Li Xian thinks that soldiers should practice in the summer and winter, and the overly comfortable garrison conditions will only wear down the morale of the army. Now that Anxi is still in peace, there are still a few tough battles to be fought after the beginning of spring. It would be difficult to put it away, so Li Xian decided to set up the general's camp in an open place outside the city, thinking that it would be convenient for military training.Especially when the heavy snow has just stopped, even if it is only a mile away from the city, it is obviously not easy to walk through the thick snow, even if it is by carriage. No, looking at Princess Mingyue's slightly bluish-white face, one can see that this journey has not been easy.

"Look, look quickly, that is Princess Mingyue, the unmarried daughter-in-law of His Highness, wow, so handsome!"

"Tch, what kind of daughter-in-law, you earthy leopard, do you have to call the princess to understand?"

"Liu Dascar, stop talking nonsense. Our Highness's unmarried concubine is in Luoyang. This Princess Mingyue can only be the side concubine. Does the side concubine understand, but she is really handsome and worthy of our highness."

There is no entertainment in the barracks. Women are always the same topic. It has been like this since ancient times. A group of soldiers finally got back to leisure, and saw such a beautiful girl as Princess Mingyue standing outside the gate of the barracks. There is no reason to stand around and watch, so people crowded in front of the fence at the gate, all curiously looking at Princess Mingyue standing on the snow, chatting in low voices, It's not bad intentions at all, it's just that it's strange to see it, but under the busyness of people, the buzzing and humming sound became a noisy one, and Princess Mingyue couldn't help but blush when she heard it in the ears of Princess Mingyue .

The face can be red, the heart can be flustered, but Princess Mingyue will not shrink back because of this. Although her head is slightly lowered, her body is still standing upright, her eyes are full of determination, because she has a belief in her heart to support her. That's it - if you have love, you have to fight for it!Not only for the country of Khotan, but also for the love in her heart—Princess Mingyue has always been a very proud girl. When she learned that her father betrothed herself to Li Xian, Princess Mingyue was actually not happy at first. For this reason, there was a fuss in the palace, but in the end, due to the pressure of his father and brother, he could only reluctantly agree. However, he has seen Li Xian's heroic appearance since the dust-cleaning banquet, especially from Li Xian's outstanding piano skills. After listening to Li Xian's inner voice, Princess Mingyue keenly realized one thing - Li Xian was the person she was looking forward to for the rest of her life. The love between heart and heart is another matter. Princess Mingyue never wants to let go of what should be fought for. Therefore, if Li Xian didn't go, she came by herself, for the love in her heart!

"What's going on, what are you all doing here? Where is the officer on duty? Register all those who gathered without authorization and deduct the military salary!"

Li Xian walked up to the gate, and when he saw so many "soy sauce" guys, he felt a headache immediately, and had to put on the airs of the coach and yelled. As soon as he said this, the onlookers laughed and burst into laughter. They ran away, but they didn't go far, they still gathered not far away, and then watched the excitement, not only the soldiers, but even Li Jinxing and other generals were all in the crowd gesticulating and making noise.

These bastards!It's time for leisure, if the soldiers really want to watch, Li Xian can't help it, he can only curse secretly, he doesn't bother to pay any more attention, shrugs his shoulders, strides out of the gate, and sees the whole body Princess Mingyue in the silver fox fur robe stood there pretty, with picturesque eyes and fluttering robes, she really looked like a banished fairy descending to the mundane world, with a trembling heartstrings, people became a little crazy...
