    Chapter 261 Uncle Xu¡¯s Mansion

    In early September, the 50,000-strong counter-rebel army composed of 5,000 people from Chang'an Prefecture, Anping Prefecture and the Imperial Guard finally set off. The counter-rebel army was led by Cui Yixuan, Secretary of the Ministry of War, as the marshal of the army, and Zhao Heizi led the Imperial Guard as the vanguard.  Fang Renyu joined the army as Sigong, and Yang Li joined the army as a general to lead Huizhou.

    It was a misty autumn day, and troops were ordered on the battlefield outside Luoyang.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

    Except for the two new weapons, which have more than a thousand sets used for defense at Hulao Pass and Dongling Pass, the rest are traveling with the grain trucks.

    Yang Xiao knew that Huizhou's so-called "Emperor Wenjia" would surely surrender under the influence of soul-stealing crossbows and earthen bombs. Although earthen bombs are not as powerful as the bombs of later generations, they were already a generation in the cold weapon era.  An artifact.

    Watching the counter-rebellion troops march southward, Yang Xiao couldn't feel any happiness in his heart. Since ancient times, refugee rebellions have been nothing more than a lack of warmth and food. If the war starts again this time, no one knows how many more people will die.

    Uncle Zhu led all the officials back to Daxing Palace early, leaving Yang Xiao alone with a desolate expression, letting the drizzle gently touch his gloomy cheeks.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but an old voice suddenly sounded in my ears.

    "Your Highness Changsun, the counter-rebel forces have gone far, what are you still worried about?"

    Yang Xiao raised his head and saw that Xu Xiaode had come to him at some point, and ten feet away several Xu Mansion's retinues were guarding two large red-faced sedans.

    "Why didn't you go back?" Yang Xiao asked listlessly. He knew that Xu Xiaode had blocked the dispatch of troops this time. This was a good thing. The people who suffered from military disasters were impatient. This time, he had to advocate sending troops to quell the rebellion.

    "My little girl wants to come over and see His Highness." Xu Xiaode glanced at him, then turned his head to look at the two large red-faced sedans in the distance.

    "Here is Hui girl?" Yang Xiao was shocked and grabbed Xu Xiaode's arm without thinking.

    "Hehehe¡ª¡ª" Xu Xiaode's eyes cracked with laughter. He did not answer Yang Xiao's question. Instead, he shouted to one of the sedans, "Girl, don't come out yet."

    The sedan curtain was opened, and a peerless face with pear blossoms and rain suddenly appeared in the rain curtain. Xu Hui had obviously lost weight after not seeing her for a few days.

    "Brother Yang," Hui Yatou yelled, whimpering and ran over and threw herself into Yang Xiao's arms, sobbing.

    " Xu Xiaode's ability to bring Hui Yatou to meet him was beyond Yang Xiao's expectation. In his opinion, the matter between him and Hui Yatou was like an invisible mountain, and Yang Xiao was helpless as to how to move this mountain.

    It seems that Xu Xiaode allowed himself to date Hui Yatou

    Yang Xiao hugged her tightly, feeling her frail and delicate body, and couldn't help but feel heartache.

    "Girl, why have you lost weight again?"

    "When you have Sister Qing'er and Sister Xiaoxiao, you won't want me anymore," Hui Yatou sobbed in his arms.

    "How could you not want to?" Yang Xiao compassionately touched her trembling shoulders, feeling her deep friendship, her eyes couldn't help but moisten.

    "As long as you don't dislike Brother Yang, Brother Yang will marry you."

    "Really" Xu Hui opened her eyes full of tears, her face full of hope.

    "When did Brother Yang lie to you?" Yang Xiao wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and joked, "If I don't cry, I will cry like a little cat."

    Xu Hui was tender-faced after all, and besides, her father was by her side, she quickly broke away from his arms, looked back, and exclaimed in surprise: "Hey, where is your father?"

    Yang Xiao laughed loudly: "They left long ago"

    "It's all your fault," Xu Hui lightly beat his chest with her little hands and said coquettishly.

    "Okay, okay, it's really me who is bad." Yang Xiao laughed, "Girl, let's go too. Although the rain is light, it's easy to get sick if it hits you."

    "Yeah" Xu Hui responded sweetly and ran towards the sedan with joy.

    Seeing Hui Yatou getting into the sedan, Yang Xiao also got on the horse and looked back at the empty battlefield covered with a misty rain curtain. The original loneliness disappeared with the arrival of Hui Yatou.

    Early morning the next day

    Qianyang Hall

    On the Golden Hall of the Golden Pig, Yang Xiao stood at the bottom.

    Gao Ping held the fly whisk in his hand and a sharp voice rang out: "If you have something to do, please report it early. If there is nothing to do, leave the court."

    Since the counter-rebel army just set off yesterday, everything has come to an end except for the subsequent supply of food and grass.  It was quiet for a while in the court hall.

    After waiting for a while and seeing no one present, Yang Xiao knew that there would be no other matters discussed in the morning, so he turned around and said to Old Man Zhu: "Father, it has been more than a month since the Huainan Army retreated from Luoyang.  ??Can be opened again.  "

    "You're talking about Qin Mansion?" asked Old Man Zhu.

    "I think it should be in the name of the court this time," Yang Xiao thought for a while and said.

    Old man Zhu hesitated for a moment and said: "The counter-rebellion army has just set off, and now there are no troops to send. What's more, the twenty-seven countries in the Western Region are already ready to move. This trip is probably going to be very difficult."

    "Don't worry about this. I've thought about it. Brother Li and Brother Liu often take the Silk Road. Now there are still 300 troops in Songjiazhuang. With new weapons, it won't be a problem to cooperate with General Shangguan to spread power in the Western Regions when we get to Zhangye."

    Seeing Yang Xiao talking about Shangguan Beloved, Old Man Zhu was silent for a while. When King Long seized the throne, Shangguan Beloved was so powerful that one person was less than ten thousand people.  His discord with her was known to everyone in the civil and military dynasties.  Fortunately, she was self-aware. After King Long's defeat, he voluntarily returned to Zhangye. This time Xiaoer wanted to send troops to Zhangye. Could it be that he wanted to invite her back?

    Yang Xiao naturally didn¡¯t know what Old Man Zhu was thinking at this time. He thought that Old Man Zhu had other things that he couldn¡¯t figure out, so he said, ¡°Father, what else are you worried about?¡±

    The old man Zhu raised his head, glanced at him, and said, "Then let the ministers discuss this matter."

    As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xiaode in the hall stepped out of the train and praised loudly: "I think this is feasible. Now that new weapons are available, it is time to show off in the Western Regions. When the twenty-seven countries in the Western Regions were in chaos, the old general Shangguan  The whole family and tens of thousands of soldiers from Hexi Prefecture were brutally persecuted, and the Gobi desert was stained with blood for five miles. Later, although General Shangguan suppressed the rebellion, he restrained himself, but in the past few years, he became disobedient again."

    "I agree," the Yuan Xu party members all stood up and shouted in unison as soon as Xu Xiaode spoke.

    Old man Zhu frowned slightly and raised his eyes to look at Cui Dang on the other side. However, due to Cui Yixuan's absence, Cui Dang and others were not as interested in figuring out Yang Cheng's thoughts as Xu Xiaode.

    Seeing that the Cui Party members all acquiesced, Old Man Zhu could only sigh secretly, glanced at the Yuanxu Party members, and said calmly: "Then send troops, and make Li Qi the Great General of Yangwei, and Liu Xiongwei the Great Commander of Zhenxi.  General, ask General Chen to allocate 1,500 Imperial Guards to Li Qi and Liu Xiongwei. The issue of dispatching troops through the Silk Road will be discussed by the Xu Qing family and your officials. If you have nothing else to do, just retreat from the court - "  After the old man said that, he stood up with a calm look on his face.

    Seeing that His Highness the Crown Prince was about to leave, Xu Xiaode quickly said: "Your Highness, I still have something to report."

    When Old Man Zhu heard this, he looked back at Xu Xiaode with a frosty look on his face, and secretly said with hatred in his heart: "Does this old official really think that he can cover the sky with one hand without Cui Aiqing?" Although he was thinking like this in his heart, he said coldly:  "What else is there for Xu Aiqing?"

    "Your Highness, I have a little daughter who is twenty-eight years old this year. When I was at White Horse Temple that day, I met His Royal Highness Changsun, and they fell in love with each other. I would like to ask Your Highness to be a matchmaker." After Xu Xiaode finished speaking, he looked at Yang Xiao and Prince Yang Cheng with a smile on his face.

    "I just met Hui Yatou yesterday, and today the old man came to propose marriage. Yang Xiao looked at Xu Xiaode with confusion. Seeing that the old man had a kind face, he didn't doubt him.

    "Oh, there's this other thing?" Old Man Zhu was also shocked. He knew that Xiao'er had shared the same troubles with Miss Qin Mansion and Concubine Rong's apprentice, Miss Qing'er, so how could she still be related to this stubborn second daughter?  ?  I heard him say this probably before the disaster in Luogongyuan.

    Old man Zhu sat down again and looked at Yang Xiao with questioning eyes. Yang Xiao was a little embarrassed. His little black face turned slightly red and said, "When my father was at Wangjiang Tower that day, Girl Hui risked her life to save me."

    At the mention of these words, Old Man Zhu's eyes softened a lot. When he was at Wangjiang Tower that day, King Long sent Liu Wuying to assassinate him. If Xiao'er hadn't blocked his hand for him, perhaps there would not be the situation today. At that time, Xiao'er's side  It seems that there is such a girl.

    "Since there is such a thing, then I will be the matchmaker." Yang Cheng showed a smile again and said with a smile to Yang, "When Concubine Rong comes back, we will also solve Qing'er's matter."

    Hearing this, Yang Xiao was overjoyed. He quickly knelt down and said loudly: "My child, thank you father."

    "Hahaha - you are finally willing to kneel down, get up." Old Pig looked up to the sky and laughed.

    "Then I will ask the Ministry of Rites to pick an auspicious day," Xu Xiaode took the opportunity to comment.

    "You, an old official, are so anxious to get married this time." Old Man Zhu did not doubt him at all, and joked with a smile, "Please ask the Ministry of Etiquette to choose the auspicious day of the zodiac first, and then retire from the court if you have nothing else to do."

    After the dynasty was over, Yang Xiao walked out of the Qianyang Palace under the congratulations of all the officials. Just as he stepped out of the palace door, a trembling old eunuch holding a fly whisk came from the side.

    The old eunuch hurriedly walked over to Yang Xiao and whispered: "Your Highness Changsun, the emperor has summoned you."

    Yang Xiao looked back and saw that the old eunuch was actually Manager Shi who was beside the old emperor. He stopped and said with a smile: "Manager Shi, how can I ask you to come in person?"

      "I can still run, so I can run more," Manager Shi replied with a smile.

    Renshou Hall

    The old emperor Yang Yong still leaned on the dragon bed and closed his eyes to rest.

    When Yang Xiao arrived, there was already a girl in white clothes and a mask sitting there quietly in the Hall of Renshou. The girl's eyes were bright and she looked at him with a very familiar look. Yang Xiao thought in his mind that he had seen it somewhere before.

    "Grandson meets grandpa" Yang Xiao stood beside the girl and sang a promise to the old emperor on the dragon bed.

    The old emperor woke up, sat up straight, and said: "Here we come."

    Through the sunshine outside the window, Yang Xiao found that the old emperor's face was actually much rosier. He thought it was Yuan Gu who had given up his power and had no worries.

    "If I hadn't called you, would you have forgotten me, an old man?" Yang Yong glanced at him and said.

    "My grandson doesn't dare." Yang Xiao felt ashamed in his heart. The old emperor's words were true. If he hadn't sent Manager Shi here, he really wouldn't have thought of going to see the old emperor.  .
