Floating in the Tang Dynasty Volume 2 "Da Nei" Chapter 363 Countering the Rebellion 3 (Trying the Tiger to Leave the Mountain)

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Although the bandit soldiers were claimed to be one hundred thousand, they were actually only fifty or sixty thousand, two-thirds of them were captured officers and soldiers, the other third, more than half, were villagers, and only a small half were true members of the Maitreya cult.

    Jiangnan Maitreya Sect was originally divided into eight divisions: heaven, earth, mountain, lake, wind, thunder, water and fire.  The eight nine-pillar Bodhisattvas were originally the old guard generals of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.  In the 14th year of the Great Cause, General Yu Wenhua and his camp of Youtun Guards rebelled and killed their lord. Eight people followed Yang Guang and asked the doctor Shen Guang, Su Gong Mai Guang and others to conspire against the thieves. They attacked Yu Wenhua and his camp at night. Unexpectedly, they were defeated, so they were buried secretly.  The name is in Jiangnan.  At that time, the world was in chaos, and the eight people later took refuge in Yang Guang's old subordinate Luo Ling Xiao Mian. Xiao Mian later called himself King of Liang, and all eight people had titles.

    During the Wude period, Houliang was attacked and destroyed by Wei Gong Li Jing.  The four tribes of heaven, earth, mountains and lakes were surrendered by "Bodhi" and had already surrendered to the imperial court.  Only the four tribes of wind, thunder, water and fire are still hiding in Jiangnan.

    Now it is the four tribes of wind, thunder, water and fire that are rebelling with "Ananda's disciples".

    Muzhou City was captured, and the three Bodhisattvas of Thunder, Water, and Fire were captured. The three of them were the sons of the original three Nine-Pillar Bodhisattvas.  After being persuaded by King Dongtian, they all bowed down to Yang Yue and cursed that they had been deceived by the female thief.

    It turns out that after the Longhua Conference of the Jiangnan Maitreya Sect, at the request of Yang Yue, all other members of the Maitreya Sect were pardoned except for the Nine Pillar Bodhisattva of the Wind Department who was "feng Shaocai" along with King Jing and Xiao Yuee.  However, the three nine-pillar Bodhisattvas of Thunder, Water and Fire were not released back to the south of the Yangtze River, but were exiled to Lingnan according to the law.  The Maitreya Sect in Jiangnan was greatly damaged for a while.  In addition, the Holy Lord has passed away, and Yang Yue, the "holy girl", has never thought of going to Jiangnan to "take office". King Dongtian hid in Xianyang and no longer paid attention to the affairs of the sect. The Jiangnan Maitreya Sect has almost been disbanded.  Unexpectedly, "Chen Shuozhen" came to Jiangnan more than two months ago, claiming to be the new "Saint Maitreya", and organized believers to rebel in Muzhou.  Originally, some people had doubts, but the Bodhisattvas of thunder, water, and fire were imprisoned by "Ananda's disciples" and were driven by her

    As for the Feng Department, the original Nine-Pillared Bodhisattva Feng Shaocai had no heirs and was led by Zhang Shuyin, a close aide of the "female bandit leader", but now his whereabouts are missing.  And not only Zhang Shuyin, but also the "female thief" and Tong Wenbao, whom she named the general, were missing.  I searched all over Muzhou City and outside it, but found nothing.

    Everyone couldn¡¯t help but be extremely puzzled, and Yang Yue suddenly felt an inexplicable ominous feeling in his heart.

    Although the leader of the thief was not caught, the den of thieves was destroyed in one fell swoop. All the soldiers were thunderous, happily talking about this strange battle, and they were full of praise for this "female marching general manager".

    This battle can indeed be called a "strange battle".  The siege began at the time of You and ended at the time of Hai.  By the time everything is settled, it's not yet midnight.

    At the top of Muzhou City, a crescent moon hung high, and all the soldiers were gradually falling asleep while being excited.

    Yang Yue couldn't sleep no matter what, thinking to herself where "Disciple Ananda" had gone?  If we can't catch her, I'm afraid the war won't stop.  Feeling arrogant and restless, he quietly walked out of the tent and walked to the top of Muzhou City alone.

    Although there were not many casualties, the city was devastated and the remains of unburned fire could be seen everywhere in the city.  Soldiers were lying around and sleeping on the ground. Occasionally, a few soldiers who had not yet fallen asleep were whispering.  Even though it was spring, Yang Yue felt a kind of desolation like the autumn wind on the battlefield.

    "Princess, why haven't you rested yet?"

    Yang Yue lowered his head and pondered while walking towards the top of the city. Unknowingly, he almost bumped into a general who was on night patrol.  When he looked up, he saw a pair of eyes as deep as water, but it was King Wu Li Ke.

    After not seeing each other for many years, King Wu¡¯s temperament became more and more calm, and there were a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, each of which seemed to express his thoughts.  But his eyes were very worried, looking at Yang Yue as if he was as calm as water, without any desire or desire.  If I had to say something, it would be gentle and affectionate.  But that trace of emotion was concealed by him extremely well.  When he saw Yang Yue, he smiled slightly, as warm as the spring breeze blowing over the willows.

    Since arriving in Muzhou, they have been busy with the war. The two of them have only seen each other in the camp and have never met alone.  Yang Yue didn't know that King Wu saw her walking out of the camp and followed her from a distance, thinking that he really met her by chance at the top of the city.

    "Oh." Yang Yue was stunned for a moment and said, "Why is King Wu personally on duty at night?"

    "I can't sleep anyway, so why not do something." Li Ke smiled, looked at Yang Yue and said, "The princess is worried about the whereabouts of the female thief?"

    "Yeah." Yang Yue also smiled slightly, which always made her very relaxed in front of Li Ke.

    "It's useless to worry. It's better to have a good rest. Once you've regained your energy, it won't be too late to find him again." Li Ke looked at Yang Yue's tired face and said softly.

    In fact, he didn¡¯t know that Yang Yue was not only unable to sleep because of the female thief, but also because of Li Min, the king of Shu. He had already learned about Li Min from the imperial guards.  But Yang Yue never mentioned Li Min. He wanted to comfort her but was unable to do so.

    "The sleepier you are, the harder it is to fall asleep." Yang Yue shook his head, helpless.He said, "Could it be that Chen Shuo really has the ability to fly to the sky and escape from the earth? How could he disappear? It's funny, you have seen her too. She is the 'Ms. Chen' who was knocked down by Prince Teng in Daci'en Temple. It is said that  He is a descendant of Prince Nanchen.¡±

    Li Kejian said, feeling a little surprised. He thought for a while and said, "As far as I know, the prince of Nanchen Empress has no descendants."

    "The prince of Empress Chen has no descendants." Yang Yue repeated it softly, remembering that Li Min had also said this that day.  Yang Guifei's mother is the daughter of Empress Chen, so she will know the affairs of the Chen family very well.  However, the "disciples of Ananda" are not descendants of Empress Chen, so why do they have to pretend to be descendants of the Chen family?  Especially to rebel in the south of the Yangtze River is a crime of genocide. Isn't it possible that no one from the Chen family came out to oppose it?

    After Nan Chen!  Suddenly Yang Yue suddenly realized.  Jiangnan Road was the territory of Nanchen at that time. Nanchen destroyed the country only about seventy years ago. I'm afraid it will still have some influence in Jiangnan. "Chen Shuozhen" really has some fame after pretending to be Nanchen.

    "Nan Chen established his capital in Jiankang. Could it be that Chen Shuo really arrived in Jiankang?" Thinking of this, Yang Yue changed his mind and said.

    Li Ke shook his head and said: "Since the Sui Dynasty destroyed Nanchen, Jiankang City has been razed to the ground because Jiankang was the capital of the Six Kingdoms of the Southern Dynasties and had the spirit of the emperor. Although there are people in Jiankang today,  It¡¯s just a bigger village, and she can¡¯t do anything even if she escapes there.¡±

    Yang Yue has never been to the south of the Yangtze River since arriving in the Tang Dynasty. He didn't know that Jiankang no longer existed. Hearing Li Ke's words, he couldn't help but be stunned.  She thought to herself: "Since Jiankang is not here, where will Ananda's disciples flee to? Could it be that seeing the situation was not good, they fled back to the Western Regions?" After thinking for a moment, she felt that it was impossible. With the hatred "Ananda's disciples" had for her, she thought  I mean, how could I stop here?  What's more, Tong Wenbao and Zhang Shuyin didn't know where they were.  Those "disciples of Ananda" have crazy medicine in their hands, and they can "scatter the beans into soldiers" wherever they go. If the three of them are not captured, I am afraid there will be no peaceful life.

    Yang Yue frowned and thought for a long time, but had no clue.  Li Ke looked at her silently and said for a long time: "You should go back and rest first, and think about it tomorrow."

    The stars are shining brightly, and the moon has set without knowing when, but the green mountains in the distance are gradually showing their outlines, and the clear light is gradually rising, and it is almost dawn.

    "Okay." Yang Yue was indeed exhausted. He nodded, turned around and walked towards the city.  After walking a few steps, he stopped again and turned to look at Li Ke. Seeing that he was still looking at him quietly, he pondered for a moment and said, "King Wu, please marry a new sister-in-law as soon as possible."

    Li Ke's face froze, he was stunned, his lips trembled slightly, and he said firmly: "Okay."

    Yang Yue has been holding this sentence in her heart for many years, and she didn¡¯t say it until today.  But after saying that, Yang Yue turned her head quickly and couldn't bear to look at King Wu's face again.  She naturally knew what Li Ke was thinking, but she was just careless and ruthless, and she didn't want him to waste his time on her.  What's more, the more persistently Li Ke waits for her, the more it will do him no good.

    Although Li Ke has been waiting for him all these years, he still understands that Yang Yue does not have him in his heart.  Apart from Li Min, I'm afraid Li Zhi is closer to Yang Yue than him.  However, after hearing Yang Yue's words, Li Ke's heart still sank, knowing that Yang Yue was clearly telling him that it was impossible for her to marry him, and that he no longer had even a glimmer of hope

    Looking at Yang Yue's retreating figure, Li Ke turned his head to look at the distant mountains, his eyes couldn't help but be a little blurred.

    "Ah!"

    Suddenly, Yang Yue screamed from the corner of the tower.

    Li Ke's heart tightened and he turned around suddenly, only to see Yang Yue retreating towards the city wall step by step, followed closely by a person like a shadow.

    Hijacking?  !

    Li Ke suddenly understood and shouted "Stop!", but he had already pounced on him.

    It turned out that Yang Yue had just turned around the turret and was about to walk down the city. Unexpectedly, a "guard on duty" on the side of the turret suddenly turned around and quietly pressed a sharp blade against her life gate

    "If you dare to take a step forward, I will kill him immediately." The person holding Yang Yue hostage was wearing armor and a helmet covering his face. His face could not be seen clearly. When he saw Li Ke coming, he shouted loudly.  However, the man's voice was extremely strange, as if he had deliberately twisted his voice, and was unusually high-pitched.

    "Zhang Shuyin, let her go, you can do whatever you want!" Li Ke pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword and shouted in a deep voice.  Although he couldn't see his face, Li Ke recognized the man at a glance.

    "Let her go?" Zhang Shuyin laughed loudly, "What reason do you have for me to let her go?"

    Li Ke stared at Zhang Shuyin and suddenly said word by word: "As long as you let her go, I won't tell a word of your identity!"

    You won¡¯t say a word of your identity?  What's the reason?  !  Zhang Shuyin is a rebel, and his identity is very clear.  Even if Li Ke doesn't say it, how can he guarantee that others won't say it?  What's more, Zhang Shuyin was made a servant by the female thieves. The court already knew that Li Ke's guarantee was a bit false!

    However, Zhang Shuyin looked at Li Ke and suddenlyHe was shocked and stunned for a moment, and seemed to be persuaded by Li Ke.  Just as he was about to nod slowly, he heard Yang Yue suddenly smile and say: "Are you Zhang Shuyin? Why are you alone? Where has your Majesty the Queen gone?"

    Zhang Shuyin was startled for a moment. Seeing that Yang Yue was kidnapped by him, he actually had the mood to laugh out loud. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes and he said sharply: "Yes, I am Zhang Shuyin. I heard that the princess is offering a huge reward for her capture. She wants thousands of dollars for her capture."  Knife and scrape?! I never expected that the princess would fall into the hands of her master. I wonder what the princess would feel."

    ¡°Tens of thousands of people¡¯s lives were burned to death in vain, and cutting you off with thousands of knives is just an advantage!¡± Yang Yue scolded with a cold snort.

    Yang Yue was kidnapped by him, and he dared to rebuke him. Zhang Shuyin couldn't help but was startled again. He was stunned for a moment, pointed at Li Ke, and said angrily: "I didn't set the fire. If you want to blame him, you should blame him."

    "The king of Wu only used fire as a means of attack. And you are not a hero when you flee from the battlefield regardless of the lives of your subordinates." Yang Yue said contemptuously, "It is really bad luck for my eight lifetimes to be kidnapped by people like you.  ."

    King Wu couldn't help but frown secretly after hearing this, blinked at Yang Yue, and said to himself: How could Yang Yue be so unwise, and be so bold even after being kidnapped, for fear of angering the other party.

    "You" Sure enough, Zhang Shuyin was furious for a moment and was furiously irritated by Yang Yue. He suddenly burst out with a sneer and retorted, "I've heard that you like heroes, but it's a pity that the hero in your mind is in someone else's room at this moment.  The gentle countryside!"

    Wenwenxiang?  !  Yang Yue's brows couldn't help but jump.  These words were so hateful that they really hit Yang Yue's pain point like an awl.

    Yang Yue could not help but reveal a sad smile, pursed her lips hard, and suddenly said in a hoarse voice: "It turns out that 'Ms. Chen' was a trap set by you!!"

    Even Zhang Shuyin, who was far away in Muzhou, knew about Li Min and "Ms. Chen". Needless to say, "Ms. Chen" could not be an ordinary prostitute.  It is very likely that "Ananda's disciples" were specially sent to seduce Li Min.  However, not only Li Min, but also Yang Yue almost fell into the trap!  Just imagine if I had been so angry that I couldn't get up, how many people would have died in Muzhou City today!  Yang Yue couldn't help but shudder after thinking about it!

    "Although the King of Shu is a dandy, he is more than that confused. I'm afraid there is something hidden in the meantime." Li Ke couldn't help but frown when he saw Yang Yue's face, and hurriedly comforted him.

    "Hidden secret? Hahaha!" Zhang Shuyin burst into a sneer again, but that sneer contained a lot of anger, or perhaps more than anger, it should be resentment.  After sneering, Zhang Shuyin gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "I'm afraid he has already become her 'concubine' by this time. There are indeed many secrets!"

    "Concubine?" Yang Yue couldn't help but wonder.

    "What is the emperor's inner palace if not his concubines?" Zhang Shuyin clicked his tongue and smiled strangely, "The queen's concubines are naturally men."

    "You mean that 'Ms. Chen' is your queen?" Suddenly, Yang Yue felt her mouth go dry and her tongue was so frightened that her seven souls came out of their shells.  However, she had heard the voice of "Ms. Chen" before. How could it be "Disciple Ananda"?  Yang Yue shook her head and said: "Impossible, I know her voice, it's cold and hard, how can she be as gentle and watery as that 'Ms. Chen'."

    "Cold and hard?!" Zhang Shuyin laughed, pointed at King Wu and said, "Ask King Wu, is her voice cold and hard?"

    "King Wu?" Yang Yue looked at King Wu and couldn't help but feel even more confused.

    King Wu frowned, but nodded silently: "I have indeed seen her before, but I did not listen to her nonsense"

    "Nonsense?" Zhang Shuyin suddenly laughed wildly, "If it was just nonsense, how could I have gotten to where I am today?"

    Not just nonsense, what else is there?  Are "Ananda's disciples" really "seduce" others in order to rebel?  ?  Yang Yue would not believe it anyway.  But how could King Wu¡¯s words be false?

    Yang Yue went to see King Wu. King Wu looked slightly embarrassed, but he also knew what Yang Yue was thinking. He pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "She just said that if things come true, she is willing to commit herself to her."

    "After the thing is done, I promise you with my body"!

    "Haha!" Yang Yue couldn't help laughing. Although she had never seen the face of "Ananda's disciple", Prince Teng had said that day that he was probably even more beautiful than Yang Yue.  However, "Ananda's disciple" was so troubled by love that she rebelled. All she could think about was Li Zhi. If the rebellion really succeeded, the first thing she would do would be to let Li Zhi be the "queen". How could she be so violent?  to others!

    "No wonder you are so angry. It must be that Mrs. Chen promised to make you the 'Queen', but you were abandoned when she didn't want to, so" Yang Yue couldn't help turning her head to look at Zhang Shuyin, pointing at him and laughing.

    King Wu would naturally not be fooled, he had nothing in mind but??There is Yang Yue.  But what about Li Min, the king of Shu?  While laughing, Yang Yue was horrified in her heart!

    "You, you! I didn't want to kill you, why do you have to seek death?!" Finally, Zhang Shuyin was angered by Yang Yue, and suddenly a cold flash appeared in his eyes, and the dagger in his hand suddenly thrust forward with force.

    "Shichiro, no!"

    Seeing that Yang Yue was involuntarily pushed out by the stabbing, he rushed forward a few steps, staggered a few times, and suddenly fell down.  King Wu roared, rushed forward, and supported Yang Yue. His face turned pale and he burst into tears.

    At the same time, suddenly a dozen figures rushed out from the corner tower, and five or six swords were instantly placed on King Jiang's neck.  The torch at the top of the city was extinguished, but it turned out to be Xue Rengui, Wang Fangyi, Feng Wenzhan and other imperial guards.

    "So you are King Jiang!" Suddenly, Yang Yue, who had suddenly fallen to the ground, clapped his hands and laughed.

    "You, how can you be okay?" King Jiang looked horrified. He looked at the dagger in his hand, then looked at Yang Yue. He even forgot that his neck was covered with swords and shouted in horror.

    "Have you forgotten that this princess is the real Maitreya Maitreya, who is truly invulnerable to sword attacks?" Yang Yue laughed.  Of course she is not invulnerable to swords, but she is not injured by swords, which is no longer a difficult task for the "Military God of the Tang Dynasty".  Long before Yang Yue went on the expedition, Li Yexu had specially made a set of soft gold silk armor for Yang Yue. Not only could swords and swords not hurt the body, but it was also so elastic that ordinary projectiles would be bounced back by it.

    "It turns out you have set up an ambush!" King Wu Li Ke couldn't hold back his tears and laughed through tears, but the tears just fell on Yang Yue's face. King Wu couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed and said sarcastically.

    "Originally I wanted to catch a big fish, but I didn't want to just catch a little guy." Yang Yue chuckled and nodded.  Before he could explain to Li Ke, his face suddenly darkened and he said urgently to Feng Wenzhan: "Go to Yangzhou to find the King of Shu and tell him that I have something to say to him!"

    "If the "Ms. Chen" who was on the Zuichunfang cruise ship that day was really a "disciple of Ananda".  Her purpose was obviously not just to piss off Yang Yue.  Only then did Yang Yue truly understand.  Ananda's disciples turned out to be just a tactic to "move the tiger away from the mountain". She lured Yang Yue to Yangzhou. The real purpose was not to cause Yang Yue pain, but to ask Yang Yue to transfer Yang Yue's governor to Muzhou to quell the rebellion, so that Yangzhou's defenses would be empty.

    But her goal is Yangzhou.  Yangzhou is the largest metropolis in the southeast. As long as Yangzhou is owned, Jiangnan is almost a foregone conclusion.  Compared with this, Muzhou is just a small place and is dispensable.

    However, Li Min was training troops in Guazhou and had 300,000 troops.  If you want to capture Yangzhou, you must at least pass the level of Li Min.  Is Li Min just a candidate for "Ananda's disciple" to induce surrender, or

    Thinking of the strange smile on Changsun Wuji's face when he heard for the first time that day in Liangyi Palace that Li Min had gone to Jiangnan to supervise the training of sailors.  Yang Yue's heart was already shuddering.

    Looking at Feng Wenzhan¡¯s figure walking away after taking the order, Yang Yue stood at the top of the city, already breaking out in a cold sweat!
