Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 454
Chapter 454 Command The World
In the Golden Royal Palace, Li Shimin stood with his sword in golden armor and said to the Manchu Dynasty’s civil and military officials, “Our Great Tang should be a piece of refined iron forged from the beacon furnace at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and can it turn into a piece of soft bone and rotten flesh because of more than ten years of peace?”
“Jun Wu Jie!-I gave a decree to Qin Mubai in front of you. If he can’t defeat Tibet, I will personally go into battle!”
“Qi Qing Country’s soldiers, compete with one another!”
“I don’t want to say revenge or blood hatred in return. What I’m fighting for is not the gains or losses of a battle, nor is it the territory of a thousand miles, nor is it the face of a sovereign or the praise or criticism of future generations!”
Full of subdued clothes, standing quietly, listening inclined his ears.
‘”How can our Great Tang be bullied, humiliated, and enemies! How can China be indulged in pleasure without thinking of advancement! Born into misery, and died in peace!”-What I want is to awaken the blood of the Chinese nation! The soul of the world of the Great Tang! ”
“A father and son of the Qin Clan, Xun Lie, and countless soldiers with corpses wrapped in horses, their heroic deeds-their significance is exactly the same!”
“Long live my Emperor! Long live my Emperor! Long live my Emperor!” Pilgrimage suits, mountain howls, tsunamis.
Li Shimin, who had always been good at taking advice, decided that no one was allowed to make any comments this time. The imperial edict was issued immediately.
He ordered Chu Suiliang to issue a war decree that the emperor had invited him to draw up, ordering the world and the Great Tang to officially declare war on Tibet in an all-round way. The three “no” words in the proclamation shook the mountains and rivers-no compromise, no peace talks, no truce, unless one of the two countries fell!
Li Shimin personally led the army, life Situ Changsun Wuji and ZhongShu Ling Ma Zhou, together with King Jin Li Zhi jian country stay in changan; He ordered Li Jing to be the general, Fang Xuanling to be the general, Chu Suiliang to join the army, Zhang Liang, Li Daliang, Li Junxian, and Zhi Shixiong to be the generals, and ordered Baiji’s deputy Qin Tong to lead 800 Baiji to guard the tent and lead the troops to 300,000 troops.
There were more than 600,000 soldiers in the Tang Empire, half of whom were gathered in Guanzhong, and the other half were guarding the frontier or scattered in the various prefectures and counties of the country. Before the war in Lanzhou, Guanzhong allocated more than a hundred thousand troops to participate in the expedition, so the army has seen a lack of supply. Li Shimin wanted to lead three hundred thousand troops to defend the capital, but there were fewer than two hundred thousand troops guarding the capital.
At this time, Li Shimin gave the order-to issue a recruitment order to recruit the elites of Guanzhong! The imperial court opened its treasury, Taicang Loose National Reserve. It was important to gather three hundred thousand troops within ten days. After mixing with the original elite soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, they chose to accompany the imperial carriage on the expedition, while the other half stayed in Chang’an to guard the Guanzhong.
The Great Tang had a military system of prefectures. Apart from a small number of garrison imperial city guards who were recruited by the imperial court, there was no large-scale recruitment. Li Shimin’s actions had to be reminiscent of Yang Guang, the last emperor of the Sui Dynasty, who had conscripted troops to attack Korea.
But Li Shimin didn’t care anymore.
‘”Armament of the Qing Kingdom”, “Decide between the sexes”—Jun Wu’s joke!
Li Shimin’s domineering and resolute attitude once again shook Chang’an and impressed the world. Since this divine decree was issued, it was like a powerful stimulant, causing the Nine Continents and the world to show a faint and sinister national bloodlust, and awaken from the valiant and valiant spirit that the Great Tang Dynasty had always inherited!
It was as if the people had returned to the chaos of the Sui Dynasty and the war with the Kaiguo State.
A moment ago, singing and dancing flatly, drunk with money; In the next moment, hot blood surged with boundless energy!
Guanzhong two capital, regardless of duke eunuch or commoner children, sign up to join the army like crucian carp across the river; Within the nine continents, the poets and writers who had nothing to do with national affairs but praise Feng Yue in the past had their poems and prose circulated all over the world like arrows.
In the blink of an eye, all the citizens of the Tang Empire were eager to fight, and the generous soldiers of the three armies were excited!
In the Great Tang Dynasty, this epic painting of prosperity and peace that had been written for more than ten years had suddenly become colorful and dazzling!
All of this was because of Lanzhou and the death of the father and son surnamed Qin!
…
In the Imperial City, the harem, and the Heavenly King Protector’s Temple.
The white-haired Concubine Yin De sat on the incense-covered Buddha. Although she was plain and plain, she still had an immortal appearance that was unparalleled in her noble aura. She was stunning and unparalleled.
The person sitting beside her was the abbot of the Heavenly Monastery, Master Qingshan.
“Master, you once said that he became a devil and a Buddha. Now, will he go to hell or go to the West to enjoy himself?” Imperial Concubine Yin De closed her eyes and muttered.
“If Your Highness wants him to go to hell, he will be in hell. If Your Highness wants him to go to the west, he will be in the Pure Land of Bliss.” Master Qingshan replied.
Imperial Concubine Yin De smiled bitterly. “I just want him to be still alive. It’s better to become a Buddha or a devil, but he’s still alive.”
“A boundless sea of bitterness, what joy is there in life?”
“He died peacefully, but how many people will suffer forever?”
“Is Your Highness worrying about Her Highness the Princess?”
“And the unborn child in her stomach!” Imperial Concubine Yin De suddenly became a little excited and her voice trembled. “I learned from Ling’er’s letter that not long before he left for the war, Ling’er was pregnant!”
However, Master Qingshan did not say anything and remained silent for a long time.
“Master, am I wrong?” Imperial Concubine Yin De asked.
“It has nothing to do with right or wrong. Life and death, right and wrong, movement and silence are only between the lines. Once you comprehend it, you will be transcendent.” Master Qingshan said, “Your Highness, the wind blows the candle flames. The wind does not move, the candle does not move. What moves is only the heart.”
“Heart, heartbeat?” Imperial Concubine Yin De was stunned.
“Your heart has never stopped.” Master Qingshan smiled and said.
“Nonsense!!”
Imperial Concubine Yin De suddenly stood up, a rare expression of anger appearing on her face. This was the first time she shouted at Master Qing Shan, who had always been respected, “Master, you said something disrespectful!”
“Your Highness, forgive me.” Qing Shan sang a Buddhist salute with her hands together and said, “Why should Your Highness be angry? Yes or no, truth and falsehood, hypocrisy and kindness are only on the line. Everything starts from the heart, even Buddha has heart demons, not to mention mortals? Five hundred times in her previous life, you have to brush past this life. Your Highness does not need to introspect nor tangle with fate. Since fate is like this,”
Imperial Concubine Yin De was stunned. Her long snow-white hair stretched down to her waist, making her back look exceptionally miserable.
A voice roared in her mind–
“I … moved? … absurd, ridiculous! Absurd, ridiculous!”
…
At night, Situ Changsun was in the study room of Wuji Mansion.
Just as Changsun Wuji was enraged, his livid face trembled. He clenched his fists tightly and his veins exploded, staring at Changsun Huan who was kneeling in front of him!
“Unfilial son! Evil beast! You actually dare to be a deserter!”
“Father! You must calm down and take care of your body … Thousands of mistakes, my child is irrefutable! Now return to Lanzhou immediately and apologize!” Changsun Huan cried and begged.
“Too late!” Eldest Sun Wuji shouted angrily, “If you die in battle and die in the battlefield, you can still retain some reputation!” Now, His Majesty has ordered the entire country to fight. You, you … as my eldest grandson Wuji’s son, you actually became a deserter! Not only will you lose your life, you will also destroy my eldest grandson bloodline! Even your aunt (Empress Changsun) is ashamed of you! –Vertical! You actually have the face to come back to see this old man! I’m going to kill you! ”
After roaring, Eldest Sun Wuji kicked down and hit Eldest Sun Huan’s heart!
Changsun Huan did not dare to shout. He was kicked to the sky and fell over. He immediately got up. His face was covered in pale cold sweat as he pleaded, “Father, please calm down! Please calm down! This child must die! I will not dare to implicate my family!”
“Die? It’s easy to say the word’die ‘!” Changsun Wuji was still furious, roaring, “the emperor personally expedition, the people of the point of dispatch, only left me in changan, assist that waste prison! This action is clearly alienating me! It has been more than twenty years, but if there is anything big or small, how could he treat me like this? And now, you’re the deserter’s son! Bastard! You … I’m also angry! ”
“Woo–” Changsun Huan finally cried, “Who would have thought that Qin Mubai would be poisoned to death by the Tibetans!” The moment Guanxi Army collapsed, the Tibetan soldiers crushed us. At that time, I was thinking, since Qin Mubai is already dead, then our previous plans have all become empty words. It’s better to leave as soon as possible and find peace. Moreover, if the child did not leave, he would most likely be Hou Junji’s undead! That fellow is avenging himself by distributing the sea arrest documents to capture me! “If this child falls into his hands, he will definitely die!”
“If you were killed by him, it would be better than escaping back to Chang’an!” “At this moment, I can only kill you for father’s sake and hand you over to the military criminal law!” Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth.
“Ah?!” “Father! Father!” Changsun Hua’s eyes immediately went straight, and he muttered, “Father! … The tiger poison doesn’t eat children yet!”
“What are you shouting about!” Changsun Wuji shouted, “You have to be like this. You still have a chance of survival, and the Changsun Clan still has a chance to save you!” –Furthermore, I cannot hand you over to His Majesty the Emperor. I must hand you over to the Lanzhou military! Since Qin Mubai is dead, the head of Lanzhou must be Li Daozong. Hou Junji wants to avenge himself publicly, so I can only hand you over to Li Daozong. Although Dao Sect Li and I are not on the same side, he doesn’t dare to take your life! Moreover, the Emperor is about to lead his army to Lanzhou, and Li Daozong doesn’t dare to make a move at this time. Instead, he will protect you and leave you to His Majesty! Moreover, at that time, not only would Hou Junji not have the chance to kill you, but his military power would also plummet. After all, he was only a demoted official Qin Mubai had privately employed, and his name was not right. How could the Emperor use his face again? –Do you understand? ”
“It seems that I roughly … understand a bit.” Changsun Huan was a little scared silly.
“Vertical! Stupid!” “Anyway, I will immediately send a few confidants to tie you up and hand you over to Dao Sect Li before His Majesty’s army arrives in Lanzhou!” Chang Sun Wuji shouted angrily.
‘”Father, you’re so ruthless! You’re afraid that I’ll drag you into the water … You actually gambled the life and death of your child in exchange for the emperor’s forgiveness and trust!” Chang Sun Huan finally regained his senses and murmured in despair and sorrow, “Father, you’re so ruthless! You’re actually afraid that I’ll drag you into the water …”
“If you say that, there’s nothing I can do as a father.” Changsun Wuji’s face tensed up. He turned around ruthlessly and said coldly, “You volunteered to go to Lanzhou, and you deserted without any confidence. It’s obvious that you’re taking care of yourself!” There are only three paths you can take right now; Either you are sentenced to death by the military; Either our whole family is dead with you; Or … you luckily survived, and the Changsun Clan will not be implicated. At most, I will lose some face and be scolded! Only if I kill you righteously and bring you to Lanzhou will the third result be possible! –Which do you choose? ”
“Child … do you still have a choice? Just do as your father tells you!” “If I die at the hands of someone like Hou Junji, I can say it. If I die at the hands of my father … Child, I don’t want to be human in my next life!”
The Eldest Sun Wuji’s body trembled as he clenched his teeth and replied, “The situation is reversing. It’s impossible for humans to predict. Even if Qin Mubai is dead, he is still very harmful!”-You shouldn’t have provoked him when you were still in Baiji! Everything originated from you! ”
“Father, you’re actually scared. You actually admit defeat?” Changsun Huan suddenly laughed strangely, “You’re actually afraid of a baby? You actually lost to a dead baby?”
“You’re presumptuous!!” Eldest Sun Wuji was enraged, and he suddenly turned around. His eyes were bloodshot from anger.
“You want the Tiger Poison Son. Why can’t I tell you the truth once in a while? However, no one dares to tell you the truth. You don’t even dare to admit it yourself.” Changsun Huan was unusually unmoved. He coldly smiled and turned his face away. “If you want to beat me or scold me, hurry up! Perhaps if I leave now, I won’t be able to return alive. In my next life, I definitely won’t be your son!”
“Creation!” Eldest Sun Wuji closed his eyes and sighed as he leapt out of his teeth. “Yao Xing, what a Yao Xing! It’s exactly my Eldest Sun Wuji’s damned Yao Xing!!”
