Build the Traveler Alliance from Scratch.

Chapter 961 Lantian Houfu
When the good news came back, the city of Chang'an erupted in cheers.

The roar of people extended from the city gate all the way to the palace. Soon, the imperial troops on the palace wall also cheered.

Li Er, who had put on a suit of armor at some point, had a smile on his face, put the long sword in his hand back on the sword holder, turned around, looked at the boiling Chang'an City outside the palace and murmured to himself.

"The opportunities for me to personally go into battle to kill the enemy are getting less and less..."

"Report!"

Outside the Tai Chi Hall, a palace official on duty hurried up the steps, holding the hem of his robe.

Before he could stand still, he reported his victory to Li Er with a face full of joy: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Congratulations, Your Majesty, General Li Jing completely defeated the Turkic army at the foot of Yin Mountain, killing 20,000 people and capturing countless prisoners!"

"Good good!"

Li Er took the document and read every word on it with joy. It seemed that through the ink-soaked paper, he could see the murderous battlefield with rolling heads under the Yin Mountain.

When the official on duty left, another familiar figure appeared in Li Er's eyes.

Li Er was curious, untied the Huang Ling, opened the box, and a crystal clear jade seal immediately appeared in front of him.

"I see. No wonder Li Jing dared to send troops even after the Yin Talisman Book was leaked. No wonder your slave wants to speak for Yun Ye. It turns out that he improved the Yin Talisman Book... Hehe, this actually saved your life!"

He told Li Er everything he knew. He didn't hide anything about the facts, but when it came to matters involving Lin Zhongtian and Yun Ye, he basically praised them for their merits, and his subjective tendencies were extremely obvious.

"Didn't Li Jing give him the order to return to the capital? Why did he go to Yinshan again? How dare he disobey the general's order?"

Li Er closed the document, lowered his arms, and looked at the dusty Hongcheng ahead with a smile.

Hong Cheng's face was full of excitement. He held a wooden box wrapped in Huang Ling in both hands and raised it high above his head.

Hong Cheng chuckled and said, "Old slave, I spent five thousand guan!"

Hong Cheng quickly knelt on the ground and explained: "Reporting to your majesty, the Marquis of Lantian was deceived into Yinshan Mountain by a forged document!"

I have to say that Hong Cheng is quite loyal. He said he would say something nice for Yun Ye and the two of them, and he did indeed keep his promise.

Without any hesitation, Li Er grabbed the jade seal and looked at the eight characters engraved on the seal with bright eyes.

"During this period, Lantian Hou Yunye and his senior brother Lin Zhongtian also used this seal and helped me a lot."

After listening to what Hong Cheng said, Li Er nodded thoughtfully.

Hong Cheng's face was stern, and he immediately patted his chest and promised: "Your Majesty, don't worry, from now on, there will never be such a thing in Baiqisi!"

Hong Cheng said with a smile on his face: "Before Lao Nu set out, His Majesty gave Lao slave a pattern to identify the seal. After many hardships on the grassland, Lao slave finally lived up to His Majesty's trust and found it!"

"Isn't he in Shuofang?"

Li Er glanced at him and said angrily: "That is also Yun Ye's wisdom. What does it have to do with you?"

"You slave, what are you so happy about?"

Just like what Li Jing said in front of the tent, Hong Cheng was not a minister, but Li Er's confidant and servant. Therefore, after seeing Li Er, Hong Cheng knelt down without hesitation and walked all the way there. His face was full of excitement.

Li Er glanced at him and said lightly: "Oh? Yun Ye?"

Li Er smiled and looked at Hong Cheng who was kneeling in front of him.

"Is this the imperial seal?"

Li Er laughed, then frowned slightly and said, "Yun Ye's senior brother...can you confirm his identity?"

Hong Cheng's expression straightened and he said respectfully: "The report to Your Majesty should be correct!"

Li Er was noncommittal: "What's the reason?"

Hong Cheng whispered: "Whether it was in the military camp or on the way home, I kept interacting with him and found that his words, deeds, and even temperament were very similar to Marquis Yun."

"Not only that, when it comes to improving the Yin Fu Book, he and Marquis Yun solved the Yin Book tacitly without any prior communication. In addition, he and Marquis Yun have similar conversations. It is obvious that they came from the same school and learned the same thing."

Having said this, Hong Cheng hesitated for a moment and then said: "But unlike Marquis Yun, this man is both civilized and martial, and his martial arts attainments are far superior to ordinary people. As you know, His Majesty Cheng Chumo, the son of Duke Lu, has been In martial arts, he is considered a rare master among the younger generation, but under this person’s hand, he cannot reach Sanhe.”

"Every time I sit in the same room with him, I feel an indescribable sense of awe in my heart..."

"Really?" Li Er said with great interest, "You have been with me since the time of Qianlong. You are considered to have been in battle for a long time, but you can actually detect a sense of awe in a young junior?"

Hearing this, Hong Cheng was not ashamed. Instead, he solemnly said: "What I said from the bottom of my heart is absolutely true. I hope your majesty will understand clearly!"

After saying that, he knelt down.

Li Er waved his hand and said: "Okay, I didn't say you deceived the emperor. I remember Yun Ye once said that when he was studying under the master's seat, he was playful and active, and the most incompetent. ”

"Now that a senior brother appears, he is better than him in culture, Taoism and martial arts. It is not a strange thing."

Hong Cheng whispered: "Back to Your Majesty, I secretly sent people to investigate this person's past. I also asked the soldiers in the convoy and found that this person seemed to appear out of thin air. There was no trace of his past. It was like... Just like the original Yun Hou!" Li Er raised his eyebrows and shook his head: "Yun Ye has at least confirmed that he is the bloodline left by Yun Dingxing. Even if this person is the same disciple of the immortal as Yun Ye, he is definitely It is impossible to have no roots and no roots.”

Hong Cheng hesitated and said, "What does your Majesty mean?"

"Check!" Li Er said calmly, "Didn't he say that he is from the Central Plains? Then go to the Central Plains and check. Maybe, what can't be found in Yun Ye can be found in him."

Hong Cheng bowed his hands respectfully: "Yes!"

Li Er asked again: "Where is he now?"

Hong Cheng was a little embarrassed: "Back to Your Majesty, this man has a weak temperament, is otherworldly, does not want fame and wealth, and is also highly skilled, so he always behaves casually. Therefore, after the old slave came to the capital, he left on his own and disappeared. "

Li Er asked curiously: "With more than a thousand cavalry, no one can watch him?"

Hong Cheng nodded awkwardly, his face full of shame.

Li Er said with great interest: "This is interesting. Tell me, where did he go?"

Hong Cheng pondered: "Except for Marquis Yun, this person has no worries in Chang'an. Perhaps he went to Marquis Yun's house."

At this point, Hong Cheng said quickly: "I know that Your Majesty always loves talents, but this man's martial arts skills are too amazing, comparable to Xiang Yu in ancient times. If Your Majesty wants to see him, you must bring a hundred black armors and have them personally handed over by General Yuchi." Protect the left and right!"

So exaggerated?

Li Er was startled by Hong Cheng's solemn tone, and then he raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said thoughtfully: "It's interesting."

……

……

Everything is bleak in the winter in Guanzhong, but Chang'an City is still crowded with people.

The news of Yinshan's great victory spread throughout the city in an instant, as if it had grown legs.

All the people in Chang'an were beaming with joy, the officials were writing eulogies, the scholars began to sing war songs, and even Yan Lailou quietly put up a sign offering 50% off drinks.

On these good days when everyone is celebrating, Yunjiazhuang at the foot of Yushan Mountain is naturally no exception.

Since the Yun family built the dirt road in the center of Zhuangzi wide and wide, many villagers and even outsiders have come here and set up stalls on the flat ground on both sides of the road.

What about meat sellers, cloth sellers, carrot sellers, biscuit sellers, small silver jewelry sellers...

In this Yunjiazhuang market, it can be said that everything is available.

Lin Zhongtian put on white clothes and walked among the bustling crowd, looking at the market-like scene around him with interest.

It coincides with the great victory in Yinshan, and everyone is celebrating. King Wu can't help it tonight. Many villagers are smiling and flocking to the stalls selling vegetables, meat, grains and eggs, ready to buy some ingredients and go back to celebrate with their families.

Sure enough, if you want to feel the joy after victory, you have to come to this countryside.

As for the Tai Chi Palace, Li Shimin, in Lin Zhongtian's eyes, could not even compare to the smile of a country man.

There is no way, in the mythical multiverse world next door, the journey to the west has been repeated too many times.

Lin Zhongtian also saw many different versions of Tang Taizong, and he was really not interested in Li Shimin, who was biased towards official history in this world.

He stopped an old farmer pulling a donkey cart and asked about the location of the Lantian Marquis Mansion.

The old farmer looked him up and down and said with a smile, "Are you a student of Yushan Academy?"

Hearing these words, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He knew that Yun Ye had set up an academy on Yushan Mountain, and wanted to teach and educate people according to the model of the university in his previous life, and cultivate a group of New Tang Dynasty people with the same modern thinking as him.

But so far, the college is still under construction and has not achieved any results.

Only the people from Yunjiazhuang at the foot of Yushan Mountain could see them often and mistook the good-tempered Lin Zhongtian for a student in the academy.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhongtian smiled, shook his head and said, "No, I am an old friend of Marquis Yun."

The old farmer asked curiously: "Master Hou's old friend?"

Lin Zhongtian had already discovered that the old farmer had an unusual relationship with the Lantian Marquis Mansion.

He smiled and took out the jade pendant and family letter, and showed them in front of the old farmer.

The old farmer's face immediately changed slightly, and he quickly called an acquaintance passing by and asked him to help look after his donkey cart. Then he straightened his expression, cupped his hands towards Lin Zhongtian, and said, "Sir, please come with me!"

Lin Zhongtian nodded with a smile, took steps, and followed him towards the front.
