"Chang'an..."
A piece of letter paper was held in his hand and then dropped behind him.
The breeze blows, and the letter slowly flutters.
The scenery of Zangbing Valley is the same all year round, with endless green bamboos swaying in the breeze.
Yuan Tiangang was still wearing the same navy blue clothes. They had nothing to do with luxury, but they were just linen clothes that ordinary people could afford.
The mask, which has been worn for many years but is still brand new and shiny, is exposed under the bamboo hat, only a pair of eyes that show no age.
Ever since Li Xingyun refused to proclaim himself emperor in the Jiao Lan Palace, he had returned to the Valley of Hidden Soldiers.
What Li Xingyun said was that Yuan Tiangang had not helped him kill Li Jing, and the revenge for killing his master had not been avenged, so it was not appropriate for the emperor to do so.
It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous. If you really become the emperor, you can't avenge anything.
But he didn't expect that the pretender would have the courage to start this turmoil that could change the general trend of the world.
When Zhu Wenchu died, the princes of the world were still waiting and watching. Qi State, under the banner of the Tang Dynasty, conquered the Central Plains with great momentum. Before the princes from all sides could react, they had already taken control of the Central Plains.
After nearly ten years, Chang'an once again returned to the banner of Datang.
Although this was not the arrangement Yuan Tiangang wanted to see, he took control of Chang'an.
At this moment, Shangguan Yunque, who was standing not far away and bowed, could not know how Yuan Tiangang was feeling, but he himself was truly shocked.
In the eyes of Shangguan, Li Xingyun is bound to be the one who wants to be emperor. Although he is temporarily blinded by hatred, he will eventually grow up. At that time, the commander will lead the bad guys to support Li Xingyun again. Son of Heaven.
As for whether one is loyal to Li Xingyun or the Marshal, it doesn't matter. The Marshal is loyal to the Tang Dynasty. Being loyal to the Marshal is loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and naturally it is loyal to Xingyun.
But now, the former capital of the Tang Dynasty has been taken back by Li Jing, who was always rejected by the commander-in-chief.
And before Li Xingyun has grown up, others have actually taken up the banner of Datang.
Isn't this...rebelling against Tiangang!
Anyway, Shangguan Yunque thought that he could no longer understand the world.
And he couldn't even understand this Li Jing.
Presumably, the commander-in-chief may have never understood it...
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the letter spontaneously ignited in Yuan Tiangang's hand, and then drifted away in the breeze.
"Li Xingyun, what are you doing now?"
Yuan Tiangang put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, looked at the sky in the distance, and asked questions indifferently.
Shangguan Yunque hesitated for a moment, then bowed down a little.
"Commander, Xingyun said a few days ago that he was going out for training. After leaving the Hidden Soldier Valley, there was no news. He said... that when he can personally avenge that person, he will naturally come back."
Yuan Tiangang turned around and smiled disdainfully.
"That one? Is there anyone whose name cannot be mentioned in front of me? Even Li Shimin, I have never cared about names! But he only captured Chang'an. When all the princes in the world rise up, he will know that it is difficult to dismount from riding a tiger. How does it taste!"
Shangguan Yunque did not dare to answer, but just looked at the floor.
Yuan Tiangang snorted coldly, stroked the wooden railing with his hand, and sneered.
"But this sharp weapon developed by Qi Country has information?"
Shangguan Yunque was stunned for a moment, just rubbed his hands helplessly, and said uneasily: "Then Li Jing is very strict about this sharp weapon. Even ordinary and inconspicuous craftsmen, his family is protected and no outsiders are allowed to contact him. . We haven’t found any news yet..."
Yuan Tiangang's eyes flashed behind his iron face, and while Shangguan Yunque waited at a loss what to do, he finally spoke coldly.
"Go down, I want to see what he can do!"
The Shangguan felt relieved and just bowed heavily and slowly left the observation deck.
The breeze kept shaking the green bamboos in the fields, and rustling sounds kept coming. Yuan Tiangang just remained silent with his hands behind his back.
It wasn't until the breeze stopped that he slowly turned around and left.
…………
One after another, carts wrapped in buttercloth were pushed into Chang'an City. Countless elite soldiers armed with swords and armor stood solemnly on both sides of the street to prevent outsiders from contacting them.
Firearms are the secret among secrets. Although everyone will know it sooner or later, the so-called surprise means that as long as you keep this thing ahead of others, you can suppress others.
Chang'an Prefecture's Yin Laoze was old. Although he no longer had the decisive courage, he was extremely open-minded about surrender.
Change the flag, the official position will still be there, and the military power will remain in your hands for the time being. Although it will definitely not last long, at least it will not lead to a situation where the city is destroyed and people are killed.
The new emperor in Bianzhou is Zhu Wen's third son, Zhu Youzhen.
As Zhu Wen's legitimate son, he was more favored by Zhu Wen than the terrifying-looking Zhu Yougui. He was named King Jun a few years ago, but due to Zhu Yougui's strength, he has been relatively unknown.
Who would have thought that in the end, the red flower unexpectedly fell on his head.
Since it was the new king's establishment and the country was temporarily unstable, no decision had been made yet regarding the resurgent Tang Dynasty. All the prefectures and towns were summoned to prepare defenses to prevent the Tang army from advancing any further.
As a result, the governor of Chang'an actually felt lucky.
Fortunately, he shot quickly, otherwise, facing an enemy ten times his own, without foreign aid, he would have ended up with his head in a different place...
With this thought in his mind, he became more respectful towards the young Tang clan member in front of him.
"Your Highness, all the records of Chang'an are here. When the late emperor was in Chang'an, there were still 100,000 households. After the fire burned down by the traitor Zhu Wen, and after the management of the guilty ministers, there are now only 9,000 households... "
Li Jing, who was stroking the register with his hand, was slightly startled. Although he could see very few people in Chang'an, he really didn't expect that compared to ten years ago, there were actually only one out of ten.
"Lu Fuyin is meritorious. Zhu Wen destroyed Chang'an with a fire. It was already in ruins, but it was repaired after all. It is not like the ancient capital that lasted for thousands of years ended up like this."
The governor surnamed Lu has a bright face. He dare not take credit for other things, but he has something to say about the restoration of Chang'an construction.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
What's more, His Highness said with his own words that he was a meritorious person and that his surrender was no longer a thing of the past. Presumably His Highness Li Tang is also a nostalgic person. With his achievements, he will not be grabbed by his pigtails in the future.
"Your Highness, what should we do with the thousands of Liang troops in the city?"
At this time, Liu Zhijun, who had been silent until now, was sitting next to him. Seeing that Li Jing was finally free, he asked aloud.
The military power is still in the hands of Fu Yin, but it is hard to say whether there are soldiers.
