Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 779 Past Events (1)

On May [-]th of the first year of Tiaolu, Pei Xingjian was the commander of the Turkic army and Xue Rengui was the deputy commander. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses left Beijing for Shuozhou. On May [-], the emperor issued an edict to move to Luoyang, accompanied by hundreds of officials, which lasted for nearly a month, and arrived at Luoyang Palace on June [-].

On June 21, the Tang armies from all walks of life joined forces in Shuozhou, with a total strength of more than 35 troops, which was the largest gathering of troops in the Tang Dynasty in recent years. The army was attacked, two thousand elites were wiped out, food and grass were lost, the news spread to Luoyang, the emperor was furious, issued an edict to reprimand, and ordered Pei Xingjian to enter the army immediately, there must be no mistake!Pei Xingjian originally apologized for his crime, but he did not immediately enter the army, but said that the bandit army had not yet gathered. At this time, although the army could defeat the bandits, it could not gather and annihilate most of the Turks. After repeated consideration, the emperor allowed Pei Xingjian to Please, the battle on the front line has come to a stalemate, and the besieged Xiao Siye's troops are increasingly struggling, and emergency documents are constantly being sent to Luoyang City.

The battle on the front line was not smooth, so Gaozong was very worried. Regardless of the advice of the courtiers, he supported his sick body and planned logistics day and night. Empress Wu's already weak body became even more emaciated.Gaozong's insistence that it doesn't matter, made the court situation divided into three parts - military and political affairs were controlled by Gaozong himself, while ordinary court affairs were controlled by Empress Wu, and as for the important affairs of the states, all were handled by the East Palace.

June is coming to an end, the summer harvest is over, and the collections of the states have already been exhausted to the East Palace. As usual, it is a bumper harvest. Only a few dozen states have a slight harvest due to the weather, but it is not too big for the Tang Dynasty as a whole. Since the general situation has been decided, Li Xian handed it over to the officials of the East Palace headed by Zhang Jianzhi with confidence, but he disguised himself and led the Following Li Yaodong and a few other confidantes, they galloped to Xiyuan, intending to relax while things were light.

Xiyuan, built in the Daye period of the Sui Dynasty, is the royal garden built by Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty when he built Luoyang, the eastern capital. In the Sui Dynasty, it was also called Huitong Garden. Arriving at Yiyu, from the west to today's Xin'an territory, more than [-] miles around, in the Xiyuan, there are strange mountains and clear waters, which complement each other; Like the scales of a dragon, like the sky, it is really a beautiful place. By the early Tang Dynasty, there were many new pavilions and pavilions. The emperors of the three dynasties of the Tang Dynasty often lingered here.Xiyuan was originally not open to the outside world. During the Mid-Autumn Festival in the fourth year of Xianqing, Empress Wu asked to open this garden for all officials, and Emperor Gaozong approved it, so it became a decree.

The scenery in Xiyuan is beautiful, but peonies are the most important. At the time when the peonies are withering and the peonies are about to wither, there are no people in Xiyuan, but Li Xian doesn't care. He just came to relax. Whether to see flowers or not is not too particular. After entering Xiyuan, there is no purpose. After retreating from Li Yaodong and others, he walked alone along the grass by Shenque Lake, but his mind was obviously not on the scenery. , this walk, naturally, the more you walk, the more annoying you become.

The court situation is no longer what it was in the previous life. Although Empress Wu is still very powerful, she is far from being in power. In terms of control over the Tang Dynasty, Li Xian is not inferior to him. After the martial arts competition, he was still a few chips higher, but at the same time, Gaozong, who was supposed to be bedridden, was not paralyzed like in his previous life, but still had the strength to control the armament, which is fine, the problem is Gaozong's suspicion towards Li Xian is getting stronger and stronger. Whether it is the previous indifference to the Hexi soldiers, or the move to Luoyang this time, they are all on guard against Li Xian. If this situation continues like this Well, the matter of father and son killing each other is probably unavoidable, so how can Li Xian not be upset by it.

"Ye'er, don't run, don't run, be careful that you fall..."

Just as Li Xian was walking aimlessly, a woman's voice sounded vaguely not far away. This voice seemed familiar, but Li Xian was just being upset, so he didn't think about it, let alone take it to heart. Still with his head down, he paced slowly, but he never thought that in a trance, he suddenly felt that someone was bumping into him.

"Ok?"

As one of the world's most master-level masters, even if Li Xian is in a trance at this moment, not just anyone can get close to him. Although the identity of the visitor has not yet been identified, Li Xian's body is already a natural one. Stepping sideways and turning around, he passed by the person with incomparable agility, and when he took a closer look, the person who rushed over had stopped and fell to the ground. It was a child of three or four years old.

"Wow……"

When the little guy was rushing fast, his eyes were suddenly shaken by Li Xian, and his center of gravity lost his balance, and he fell heavily to the ground. Under the pain, he immediately burst into tears and burst into tears Woke up, even though the train of thought was interrupted by this sudden child, it's not easy to get angry at an ignorant child, besides, it's not easy for Li Xian to reprimand the little guy for his pitiful appearance, of course At the time when he was very upset, Li Xian didn't have the time to make the little guy happy, he just frowned slightly, and planned to leave, but before he lifted his feet, the corner of his eyes caught a man who was rushing The pupils of the young woman who was coming over suddenly shrank, and she couldn't help but stay on the spot.

"Ye'er, Ye'er, are you hurt? Come, mother, take a look..."

The young woman didn't even look at the dumbfounded Li Xian, and hurried to the side of the crying child, squatted down, stretched out her arms and pulled the little boy into her arms, coaxing the little boy in a hasty tone.

It's her, it's really her!Hehe, this world is too small!

The young woman didn't pay attention to Li Xian, but Li Xian recognized who this woman was at a glance——Wei Xiang'er, Empress Wei in the previous life!

It is impossible for a husband and wife who have been together for 30 years to say that they have no feelings, but love and hate are intertwined. In the previous life, Li Xian might not have been able to survive the difficult years of being exiled without the support of Queen Wei. But if it wasn't for Empress Wei's murderous hand, Li Xian wouldn't have died in middle age. At this moment, people were vividly swaying in front of his eyes. Li Xian really had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while. of.

"This gentleman invites you. The servant's house is the inner room of the governor of Weizhou. If you offend me, Mr. Haihan please."

Just when Li Xian was in a daze, Wei Xiang'er had already coaxed the crying child, stood up, raised her eyebrows, and gave Li Xian a sideways look, seemingly apologizing, but in fact she brought out her own family history. Using this to overwhelm Li Xian, there is no doubt that the ordinary clothes Li Xian was wearing were actually seen by Wei Xianger as a servant.

Sure enough, he is still so domineering!

Li Xian really knew Wei Xiang'er's personality too well, seeing that he was overwhelming others with one word, he couldn't help laughing.

"Ok?"

Wei Xiang'er is not a master who is willing to take disadvantages, seeing Li Xian not answering but smiling, she immediately became angry, with a pretty face, she was about to explode.

"Your Highness."

Li Yaodong and the others were responsible for protecting Li Xianzhi, so they dared not stay too far away. As soon as they saw something going on, they all gathered around.

"Your Highness? Are you..."

As soon as someone called Li Xian His Highness, Wei Xiang'er was immediately dumbfounded. How could she dare to go mad again, and exclaimed with an expression of disbelief on her face.

"Back to the palace!"

The past is all in the past, even if these things are definitely unforgettable to Li Xian, but after all, it is not the present world, Li Xian will not have the idea of ​​revenge, nor the idea of ​​reliving the old dream, and at the same time, he does not want to have a relationship with Wei Xianger. There was the slightest entanglement, so I didn't want to say too much, turned around, and walked towards the gate with big strides. Seeing this, Li Yaodong and the others didn't dare to neglect, and followed closely behind Li Xian.

"what……"

Wei Xiang'er couldn't figure out the situation at all, until Li Xian and the others had gone far away, then she came back to her senses, and after a while of fear, she couldn't help but exclaimed, how dare she stay in the same place? After much delay, he picked up his son, and fled to the place where his family was in a panic... Zhuque Pavilion, a three-story wooden structure in the east palace of Luoyang Palace, is located on the edge of the back garden, standing next to the pond. Midsummer is approaching, the lotus is full of ponds, the fragrance is refreshing, and the breeze is blowing, the leaves are low, the flowers are appearing, the dragonflies are flying, and the colorful butterflies are circling. Appreciating, frowning slightly, with a lonely and sad expression, where the red lips are lightly parted, a sad and lingering poem has come out quietly.

"At the beginning of the Dongting under the leaves, I miss you for thousands of miles. The dew is fragrant and cold, and the moon is setting and the screen is empty. I want to play the Jiangnan song, and I am greedy to seal the book of Jibei. There is no other meaning in the book, but I am sad for a long time away from home."

The beauty was groaning, tears could not be restrained from coming out of her eyes, her tearful eyes were looking at the direction of the Ganlu Temple, and she looked at it stupidly, letting the tears slide over her jade-like face, dripping down her clothes half wet, But totally forgot to wipe it.

This beautiful woman is none other than Shangguan Wan'er, who is eighteen years old. She was rescued by Li Xian when she was under one year old. Up to now, 18 years have passed, and the baby has long since grown into a slim girl. The practice of this era is to have already passed the age of leaving the cabinet, but it is inevitable to stay in the empty cabinet alone, and feel sorry for yourself, but I dare not tell others about this kind of thoughts, even the closest maid. The same is true, and I can only bear this kind of heartache and pain alone.

"Dangdang!"

Just when Shangguan Wan'er was silently mourning, the closed door was suddenly knocked open with a muffled sound, which immediately woke up Shangguan Wan'er, and when she turned her head, her body shook and she felt ashamed. Already crazy on the spot.
