Chapter 1032. Come back, everyone who should come back. The weeds on both sides of the official road are already half a person deep. This is Gyeonggi Road. All that can be seen on both sides of the former official road are grain fields that look like they were drawn out. , neat and square. Now the grain fields have become the home of weeds. When the grass seeds mature, a gust of wind will scatter them, making them more lush next year. From time to time, I saw a green snake crawling out of the grass. As soon as I got to Shangguan Road, the soldiers picked it up and used it as a toy. There are always words like this circulating among the common people A horizontal snake and a vertical rabbit are unlucky, and you will be unlucky if you see them. Unless you kill him. Of course the soldiers didn¡¯t know that Fang Jie had a story about killing a white snake in his previous life, and Fang Jie had never had such a past. However, when Fang Jie, the reckless emperor in his previous life, was singing a song of embarrassment on all sides, the soldiers holding Chinese flags must be in the same mood as the current black flag army. The march was quite dull, but fortunately I was in a good mood. The white lion jumped out of the carriage in the early morning and dived into the grass to find food for himself. Soon he came back licking his beard, jumped on the carriage and continued to take a nap. As soon as it got on the carriage, the horse pulling the carriage neighed reluctantly. The rogue horse had gradually adapted to the ferocious beast right behind him, and now he dared to complain. Fang Jie stroked the white lion's long, silky hair while holding a historical book in his other hand. This historical record does not have any allusions to palace punishment, and it was not written by a historian from the Sui Dynasty. It was written by a down-and-out scholar named Dong Yanye who spent his entire life during the Zheng Kingdom in the previous dynasty. This man failed in many examinations and spent all his wealth. When he was established, he no longer had the idea of ??continuing to obtain fame, so he began to write this book, which is mostly derived from unofficial history but has a lot of research. This book did not bring wealth or status to Dong Yanye, and he eventually died in depression. After the founding of the Sui Dynasty and the rewriting of historical records, this book actually became a reference and gradually became familiar to people. "Lord" Someone called out from outside the carriage. Fang Jie raised his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" Chen Xiaoru's voice came from outside, showing some excitement: "Just now, General Zhuge Wuyuan sent people to rush back with news that Gao Kaitai's team mutinied. , Gao Kaitai's counselor Fan Zengli led the generals to force Gao Kaitai to leave. Gao Kaitai cursed everyone and led his soldiers to fight to the death. In the end, he was outnumbered and died fighting" "General Zhuge sent someone back to report to the lord that he and Lu Fenghou had led their troops to enter. Gao Jun's camp took over the command of Gao Jun. Those who opposed Gao Kaitai went on a killing spree in the camp. All the generals who were usually close to Gao Kaitai were killed. Gao Jun was in civil strife and many people died. But now the situation is. It has been controlled by General Zhuge and others. General Lu Fenghou, together with Fan Zengli and some high-ranking generals, are rushing here. "In addition, Cui Zhongzhen has already set off again." Chen Xiaoru finished speaking in one breath. I can't even hide my excitement. With Gao Kaitai eliminated, there will no longer be any tougher opponents north of the Yangtze River. After Gao Kaitai's death, Gao's army was in chaos and there was nothing to fear. Now that the Black Flag Army has no worries, it can enter Chang'an City safely and start a war with the Meng Yuan people in a down-to-earth manner. "The only thing you need to do is arrange for Fan Zengli to be killed. It should be done cleanly and not cause panic among the high-ranking generals." Fang Jie ordered in a calm tone: "I have already given instructions to Zhuge Wuyin on what to do. Those generals under Gao Kaitai are willing to follow me. Keep them all, even those who don't want to follow me. If these people are released, it will be a disaster. I will arrange for people to come over and ask Zhuge to bring the troops back to me." "Here" Chen Xiaoru responded outside. "Also, send people from the Xiaoqiu School to join Mu San in Chang'an City. There is a hundred households in Yi Chong's Ouchi Guards Department, and they will be paid into the Xiaoqiu School and raised to a thousand households." "Here" "Go, there are people from Dongjiang Tell me the news at any time." After Fang Jie finished this sentence, he continued to lower his head and read. "We are about to enter Chang'an City. Why don't you seem happy at all?" Xiang Qingniu, who was sitting aside and combing the whip of the white lion Chaos in boredom, asked. The long hair on the back of the white lion's head has been braided. She has more than a dozen braids, which looks a bit funny. Xiang Qingniu was not interested in knowing how to deal with military affairs, and he also knew that the execution of Fan Zengli was inevitable. There are still many people in Gao Kaitai's army who are not relieved. Fan Zengli's death will be beneficial to controlling Gao's army. This person must now think that he has leverage to negotiate with Fang Jie, and wants as many benefits as possible. After being able to persuade dozens of generals, you can imagine that it is useless to keep him. "I thought I would be happy and excited." Fang Jie raised his head and glanced at Xiang Qingniu: "But here, this feeling still hasn't come."?I am thinking more about the war in eastern Xinjiang and the war in northwest Xinjiang, but the things in Chang'an City are not in my mind. After entering Chang'an City, it won't be long before I leave. This place doesn't seem to be the end. " "The starting point? Xiang Qingniu asked. Fang Jie didn¡¯t know how to answer, but life is indeed like this. There is never only one starting point. If the starting point is Chang¡¯an City this time, where will the end point and the next starting point be? ¡ In the afternoon, the Chengde Gate in the center of the south of Chang'an City slowly opened. This was the first time the Chengde Gate was opened after Chang'an City was trapped for several years. Some people had left the city when Gao Kaitai withdrew his troops a while ago, but at that time the gate was opened close to the city. The Yongan Gate at the southwest corner of the city wall is much smaller than the Chengde Gate, and it closes immediately after opening. When people who go out to look for vegetables come back, they open a crack to let people in. This time, the Chengde Gate opened wide. . The news spread quickly, and the people in Nancheng were almost excited. It had been rumored for a long time that Duke Zhenguo was returning to the city, and the people of Chang'an City were familiar with this armored general. For Wei Mu, whose origin is unknown, Master Xiaofang's name seems much more affectionate. What's more, it is said that Yang Qinyan, the last bloodline princess of the Yang family in the Sui Dynasty, is also among the people of Chang'an City. There has always been a dependence on the royal family. In other words, the people in the imperial capital are more servile and have a strange sense of pride, as if everyone living here is a relative of the emperor. As soon as the Chengde Gate opened, the people nearby rushed to both sides of the road. Everyone was waiting eagerly. However, to their disappointment, it was not the Duke of Zhen who was the first to enter the city. The school, wearing dark blue brocade clothes and a bright red cloak, looked like dragons and horses. When they entered the city, their aura was impressive. The one who led the team into the city was Qianhu Liaosheng, a knight from the riding school. He straightened his chest. , that kind of boiling pride made him unable to calm down. Behind the Xiao Riding School, there were ten thousand elite cavalry generals, Lang Chengdong, who escorted Dugu Wenxiu into the city. All the soldiers had changed into new ones. Everyone in uniform was in high spirits. The tall horses and majestic soldiers were in neat formation, and the black battle flags were flying in the queue. The big square characters on the flags were so clear. He stood waiting at the door, feeling indescribable. He had been living cautiously in Chang'an City for several years, just to welcome this moment, and Mu San burst into tears. If Yi Chong had not pulled the corner of his clothes from behind, he might have burst into tears. ¡°Mu San? " Liao Sheng dismounted and went over to ask. "It's me," Mu San said quickly. "The Duke of Guo asked you and Yi Chong to return to the camp immediately. You can leave a few people who are familiar with the situation in the city. For all your hard work these past few years, just wait for the generous reward from the Duke. " Liao Sheng said with a smile. These words are so kind. Mu San rubbed his sore nose, turned around and discussed with Yi Chong, then left a few capable men to assist Liao Sheng, and took the others to the camp. Seeing Duke Zhen. They walked out of the city. Liao Sheng called out again and caught up from behind. His men handed over the brand-new brocade clothes of the Xiaoqiu School. "From now on, you will be the thirteenth member of the Xiaoqiu School." . " Liao Sheng looked at Yi Chong and smiled: "From now on, we will be brothers. After entering the Xiaoqiao Riding School, we will all be brothers. "Even Yi Chong's eyes are a little red. "Where is Mr. Luo? " Liao Sheng asked. "He returned to the mountains behind the martial arts academy. He knew that the lord would not enter the city today, so he did not follow him. " Mu San explained: "When will the Lord enter the city? " "Why don't you ask yourself. " Liao Sheng smiled, turned around and led the Xiao Riding School into the city. Following Mu San and Yi Chong, they greeted Dugu Wenxiu and others. Although he was not familiar with these Black Flag Army generals, he felt a sense of intimacy in his heart. Irreplaceable. He met Lang Chengdong when he followed Fang Jie, and the two chatted for a while before leaving. "What a pity" Lang Chengdong looked at Mu San's back and sighed slightly: "It's a pity that he came from the palace. If he is a healthy person. How could the reward for such a great contribution be low for such a person? " But Dugu Wenxiu shook his head: "Why don't you understand my lord? My lord never sticks to a certain pattern of employees. Although Mu San is an eunuch, merit is merit. If you don't believe me, just watch. If the lord doesn't give him a big official position??I lost to you a jug of old wine. " Chang'an City Yanwu Academy An old man with all white hair and beard stood at the door, looking up at the sky with tears streaming down his face. He has been waiting here for a long time, waiting for the day when the Yanwu Academy can rise again. Since then After the death of God Bless Emperor Yang Yi, the Yanwu Academy existed in name only. Although his identity as the dean was somewhat unrealistic, he actually devoted his life to the Yanwu Academy. When the real owner of the Yanwu Academy surfaced, people It seems that his name has gradually faded away. However, no matter what, he occupies a very important position in the history of the Yanwu Academy. He is only a few years old, but he is already very old. Dean? " He heard someone calling him, and turned his head tremblingly. Qiu Yu walked over quickly and helped the old man who seemed to be dying. She had quarreled with this old man more than once. This The stubborn old man was always so angry that she wanted to tear down his house. Now, when we meet again, it feels like we are in another world. ¡°You are back too! " Zhou Banchuan held Qiu Yu's hand, his body trembling involuntarily: "I have been waiting for you, waiting for you all to come back. Whenever you come back, the students will come back, and the Yanwu Academy will still be the Yanwu Academy. " "Yes" Qiu Yu nodded vigorously: "The Yanwu Academy will always be the Yanwu Academy and will never collapse. " On the street corner, there was a tall and thick man who wiped the corners of his eyes with a gray apron. His nose was as red as if he had applied a layer of red paint. He hid behind the corner, secretly wiping his tears. "Those who should come back will always come back Can I come back? " He was asking himself. But when he thought about the words he heard that night, his heart became a little tight. If he came back, would it be difficult to return to his original life? He stood there in silence for a long time, and finally said silently Turned around and left. Qiu Yu seemed to feel something, turned her head and glanced here, but saw nothing. She concentrated on sensing and didn't notice anything strange.
