Chapter 198 News from Chang'an

Chapter 210 News from Chang'an
He didn't expect that a gadget that he accidentally created would become popular.If this thing became popular in the Tang Dynasty and entered the homes of ordinary people, then the traditional women's tube top should be extinct.

This is a simpler, more practical, more comfortable "high-tech substitute" with advanced concepts.Zhang Xuan was somewhat dumbfounded.Unexpectedly, it was this small object that really changed this era.

Hua Nu'er seemed to realize that Zhang Xuan's eyes were on those embarrassing objects, she was very anxious, and grabbed the "three-point pose" and hid it in her arms, still carrying Zhang Xuan on her back, feeling uneasy.

She was worried that Zhang Xuan would want her body, and once Zhang Xuan had that kind of thought, she was afraid that she could not help but explode completely.

Gritting her teeth and accepting Zhang Xuan's occasional teasing, staying by Zhang Xuan's side as a personal maid is already the limit she can bear now.

Cough!

Zhang Xuan got up slowly, and left the camp by himself, it was convenient for him to go out.

In fact, there is a toilet in the camp, but it is just in front of Hua Nuer, and Zhang Xuanru can't make it convenient no matter what.

The rainy night was heavy, and the patter of rain was still falling.To be honest, this kind of spring rain is quite tormenting, it is better to rain it suddenly, such a delicate, careless, and cocoon-like falling, the poet may still have a poetic feeling, but for ordinary soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, This will not bring any good mood, it is a kind of suffering.

Zhang Xuan found a corner, hurriedly solved the problem, and then slowly slipped back.However, instead of going to the back, people lit the candles in the main hall of the handsome tent, read the book for a while, and then went to the back to sleep.

Only when he was asleep did Hua Nuer curl up at his feet and sleep with her clothes on.

That's it for the night.

Zhang Xuan never thought about having anything to do with Hua Nuer, and Hua Nuer seemed even more unwilling.Let Hua Nuer stay by his side to serve her personally, mainly because Zhang Xuan considered the potential safety hazard.

After all, the current him has grown to a height that can threaten the interests of some people.

Hua Nu'er obviously didn't have the habit and awareness of serving others, Zhang Xuan, the master, was awake, and she still couldn't sleep.However, Zhang Xuan didn't care about anything, and went to wash up.Hua Nuer was startled awake, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and stood up embarrassedly to help Zhang Xuan wash up.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand, signaling her not to come over.

After cleaning up the personal hygiene, Zhang Xuan looked back at Hua Nuer and smiled calmly, "You are not very competent as a personal maid, and you lack training... When we settle down in Lingzhou, you have to learn how to serve the master."

The smile on Hua Nuer's face froze, and Zhang Xuan laughed out loud, and then walked out.

……

……

Loud and whimpering bugles sounded throughout the battalion.

Feng Changqing came galloping on his horse, got off his horse in front of the commander's tent, and said in a deep voice to the guarding soldiers, "Quickly go and report to the governor, and ask Feng to see you!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xuan lifted the curtain and walked out, glanced at Feng Changqing, and smiled softly, "Master Feng, the rain has not stopped, and the march is very inconvenient. From my point of view, today is still a temporary rest. Let’s wait until the rain stops.”

Feng Changqing nodded yes, he knew that Zhang Xuan deliberately delayed the time, and it was normal to refuse to let the army march in the rain, so he was not surprised.

This is why he came to find Zhang Xuan, but not for the march.

After hesitating for a while, Feng Changqing whispered a few words in Zhang Xuan's ear.Zhang Xuan frowned while listening, but was speechless.

The news from Chang'an said that on the second day after Zhang Xuan led his army to leave Chang'an, that is, yesterday, Li Heng, the prince of Jian Guo, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs of the Manchu Dynasty led the army to escort the old emperor Li Longji to the other palace in Lishan. He said that he wanted to set up an altar for the old emperor on Lishan Mountain, and summon the world's most educated scholars to pray for the old emperor and offer sacrifices to heaven.

The momentum was so great that it shook the entire city of Chang'an.

What does Li Heng want to do?Zhang Xuan thought about it, the old emperor had a typical apoplexy, paralysis and aphasia. Judging from the current situation, as long as he recuperates and treats properly, his life will not be endangered, but it is simply impossible for him to recover.

Besides, does Li Heng really want the old emperor to recover?

Zhang Xuan smiled coldly in his heart, feeling that this matter was really weird.

Could it be that Li Heng couldn't wait any longer, and was going to take the risk and do it ruthlessly?Zhang Xuan suddenly became agitated, and his face changed.

Whether it is for Datang or Zhang Xuan's personal development, it is better for the old emperor to be alive than dead.Don't look at the old emperor paralyzed on the bed, but it is an invisible deterrent to the military towns all over the world, especially to Anlu Mountain.But if the old emperor dies, An Lushan's ambitions will definitely expand in an instant, causing the time for his rebellion to be greatly advanced.

And Li Heng ascended the throne in advance, if he can't control the situation, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the court.This is what Zhang Xuan is most worried about.

Zhang Xuan thought that An Lushan's rebellion was a double-edged sword, and it might be an opportunity to use it well.It's just that there is a prerequisite for this, that is, adequate preparation for the response.Before Zhang Xuan was fully prepared, the Anshi Rebellion broke out early, which was almost a disaster.

Zhang Xuan pondered, and walked at a leisurely pace, completely forgetting that there was still a continuous drizzle in the sky.

Feng Changqing hurriedly waved his hand to signal the soldiers to come over with an oiled paper umbrella. At this moment, he found that Hua Nuer, who was wearing a men's blue shirt, followed lightly, and instantly opened an oiled paper umbrella to cover Zhang Xuan. It's raining.

Feng Changqing was stunned, knowing that Hua Nuer was Zhang Xuan's maid and guard, and in fact she was the female Taoist aunt and assassin who was so good at swordsmanship back then.Feng Changqing happened to be present when Hua Nuer's master and apprentice were arrested.Of course, not many people know about this matter, only the few high-level people around Zhang Xuan.Ordinary soldiers only know that there is a very powerful female knight as bodyguard beside Zhang Xuan.

Feng Changqing regained his composure and chased after him.

Zhang Xuan frowned and paced in the rain, and waved his hand without even looking at Hua Nuer, "You don't need to cover the rain, you go back."

Hua Nu'er was secretly ashamed and annoyed, thinking that the old lady had something wrong with flattering... If you want to get wet in the rain, you can get wet, the old lady won't serve you anymore.

With a dark face, Hua Nuer put away her umbrella and turned to leave.

Feng Changqing moved over.

Zhang Xuan stopped, looked at Feng Changqing and said in a low voice, "Lord Feng, what do you think of this matter?"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Jianguo prayed for His Majesty. His filial piety is beyond reproach. It's just His Majesty's stroke, and the most taboo thing is to replace the water and soil, so as not to aggravate the condition... The governor, the official thinks, or His Majesty will live in Lishan in the future." It's the palace." Feng Changqing hesitated for a long time before saying a few words in a secretive way, and cryptically put forward his own opinion.

Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.

What Feng Changqing said is very true, Li Heng may not be cruel to kill his father and king, but he will definitely place the old emperor in the other palace on Lishan with excuses, and gradually let the old emperor fade out of the Tang court's sight.

Who gave Li Heng this idea?Yang Guozhong?Chen Xilie?Or Chen Xuanli?

Zhang Xuan shook his head and smiled at Feng Changqing, "Lord Feng, write a memorial in the name of the Governor's Mansion of Longshuo and this official, and send it to the other palace in Lishan, saying that my Longshuo army is praying for the emperor. Get well soon, Your Majesty!"

"Send people to hurry up and rush to Mount Li."

"Yes. I obey the orders." Feng Changqing nodded and took the orders.

He is very clear about Zhang Xuan's intentions. The purpose of doing this is nothing more than a disguised hint to Li Heng. I know exactly what you want to do. Although I have left Chang'an, I still know the situation in Chang'an very well.

Of course, for Zhang Xuan, hinting at Li Heng is secondary, but mainly hinting at those around Li Heng.Especially those who have ulterior motives for Zhang Xuan, such as Chen Xuanli.

*************************************
Fan Yang.In the city of Youzhou Prefecture, the Prince's Mansion of Dongping County in Anlu Mountain.

Compared with the continuous spring rain in this small town outside Yongzhou City, the sun is shining brightly in Youzhou City, the weather is clear, and the temperature rises rapidly.

An Lushan sat upright in the lobby, flanked by his confidantes and generals, as well as civil servants and advisers.

There are many generals around him, and there are many civil servants and advisers. This is the result of his win-win and management over the years, and it is not a one-day achievement.

Zhang Xuan's strong rise and going to Longshuo to lead the army will definitely threaten Fan Yang's rear, which aroused great fear in An Lushan.

An Qingxu got up and cupped his hands, "Father, when my son received a letter from Feige, that Zhang Xuan actually made a detour to the east and only came towards my three towns of Fanyang in a threatening manner. This is clearly a deliberate provocation, extremely arrogant!"

An Qingxu thought of how many times he fell in Zhang Xuan's hands, and felt even more ashamed and indignant. The more he said, the more excited he became, "Father, such a yellow-haired boy, repeatedly despises his father's prestige, it is really a shame! From the son's point of view ...it's better to-"

An Qingxu waved his hands viciously in a beheading gesture.

An Lushan frowned, and reprimanded in a deep voice, "You know how to fight and kill, but you don't know how to use your brain. The last time you were in Chang'an, you made such a big noise for this king that it almost made this king fall into a trap." A place of eternal doom... That Zhang Xuan controls a large army and is an important minister of the court, how can he kill him? You can kill him if you want?"

"Sending someone to assassinate is a very stupid act. Think about your lesson last time."

An Lushan scolded him in front of all the generals and a group of advisers, An Qingxu's face turned red, but he dared not refute.

An Lushan's military advisor, Yu Fei, glanced at the embarrassed An Qingxu, and interjected with a slight smile, "My lord, Yu feels that the little lord's suggestion is very reasonable."

"Zhang Xuan is courageous, knowledgeable, and strategic. If this man is allowed to hold a foothold in Longshuo, it will become a serious problem for Fan Yang in time. When the prince raises troops in the future, Zhang Xuan will surely collude with Hexi brother Shuhan and the Western Regions. Yang Qi and Cheng Qianli from Beiting, the Third Route Army will attack from behind, and our army will inevitably be under tremendous pressure."

"Therefore, it is better not to send an assassin to assassinate Zhang Xuan, to kill this person, and then once and for all. This is the best policy."

An Lushan shook his head, "No way! When Zhang Xuan was assassinated, everyone in the world will know that I, An Lushan, did it. At this time, our army is not ready yet. If the court threatens, we must not lose our success if we rush to fight."
