"Bairou stays in the palace?"
Bai Song frowned, this situation was slightly different from what he imagined.
Bai Song knew that something would happen in Chang'an after he left, and Princess Mingzhu's participation would definitely be indispensable.
Bai Song didn't know what Princess Mingzhu had done in the name of Beiding Palace, so he wanted to use this opportunity to leave Beijing to see everything thoroughly.
The future turmoil in Chang'an will inevitably bring various dangers.
As long as the Beiding Palace is involved, his family will be implicated.
Bai Song didn't want to leave so early, just to see how Princess Mingzhu adjusted and arranged the lives of her sisters at home despite knowing the danger.
If she doesn't care about the safety of her family at all and just wants to achieve her own goals.
Then Bai Song will definitely not leave Chang'an, and will even settle the matter for Princess Mingzhu.
But judging from the current situation, Princess Mingzhu still considered the safety of her family before the chaos started and made some preparations to at least let everyone leave Chang'an first.
As long as Princess Mingzhu takes such a step, in Bai Song's heart, no matter what Princess Mingzhu does, it will not touch his bottom line. No matter how much trouble she makes in the future, Bai Song is willing to help her wipe her butt.
Just now, after hearing Beili's words, Bai Song finally let go of his hanging heart.
At least Princess Mingzhu has not completely disappointed him.
What Bai Song could not expect was that Bai Rou did not leave, but stayed in Chang'an City with Princess Mingzhu.
Bai Song knew that his sister had gained some power in Japan, and Bai Rou's stay in Chang'an seemed to make the situation more dangerous.
When the two women around them heard their conversation, their expressions became more solemn. They also felt that something might happen in Chang'an, and secretly thought that this might be the real purpose of their husband taking them away alone.
After Bai Song thought about it, he looked at Beili and asked, "Long time no see, your skills seem to have recovered a lot?"
"Starting from scratch, the progress is slow, but fortunately there are results."
"This time I left Chang'an City, my sister and the princess have to ask you to take care of me."
Beili moved his palms, and a faint blue light condensed, dissipated in an instant, and finally said calmly: "Do your best in everything."
Bai Song nodded.
Beili turned around and asked suddenly when he was about to leave, "When will you be back?"
"Who knows? But I'll be back soon."
Beili left.
Bai Song cheered up and immediately ordered the entire army to march towards Yunzhou.
…
At the same time, the Beiding Palace also received news.
"Report to the princess, Master, he has finally left."
Princess Mingzhu nodded and looked at the map of Chang'an City on the table, which was densely marked with countless messages.
Bai Rou couldn't understand the label above, so she just asked: "What should we do now?"
"There are many things that can be done, but this is just the beginning, and we have plenty of time. Why not first see who in Chang'an City can't stand it anymore and starts making trouble. We will naturally find something if we stand still."
Bai Rou frowned, feeling a little uneasy in her heart; "If we do this, if my brother finds out..."
"Your brother actually knows everything. Nothing can be hidden from him."
"If you know it, why don't you ask?"
"Because he also has his own greed and his own ideas. No one can refuse the throne, he just wants a chance to be forced to do nothing. What is the purpose of our stay? Isn't it just to give my husband a reason?"
"It would be great if my brother could really sit on the throne..." Bai Rou was full of longing, and then her face turned cold, "I know in Japan that as long as you stay in the center of power, no one can be alone and develop with the power of Beiding Palace. If we continue, disaster will strike sooner or later. Rather than just sitting back and waiting for death, it is better to take the initiative."
"Sister, it's best if you think so. It's a pity that my husband has never had such an idea, otherwise things would be much simpler."
While the two women were talking, someone suddenly came to report: "Princess, it's not good, the bank we cooperated with Miss Chen's family has been blocked by the officials, saying that the source of our bank's money is unknown, and they want to seize it for investigation. "
"So fast?" Bai Rou frowned and said, "My brother just left, and someone can't hold it in anymore?"
"People from the official department?" Princess Mingzhu asked.
"yes."
"The officials acted so quickly, but we didn't receive any news. I'm afraid the person behind this is not Dong Palace or Princess Danyang. It's possible that the emperor gave the order directly."
…
Traveling to Yunzhou, there are frequent reports of battles ahead.
Liangzhou City had been captured three days ago, the five thousand garrison defending the city were captured, and the people were displaced.
Less than a day after traveling, Bai Song felt Alexander.
Liangzhou is very close to Chang'an, and there are countless refugees along the way.
The situation on the front line exceeded Bai Song's expectation. Even if the opponent had mastered the Shenwu cannon, the defenders would not be defeated so quickly.
What's more important is that the Tubo army has begun to open a battle line, going deep into the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty and attacking Yunzhou City. They even have troops to ambush the Tang reinforcements route to delay Bai Song's advance.
On the second day, the vanguard army encountered a battle at Daokou in western Sichuan. General Hou was attacked by the enemy's rocks at the mountain stream at Daokou in western Sichuan on the way to Yunzhou.
Although the casualties were not heavy, the army was unable to advance in a short period of time.
The Chinese army paused.
At this time, the other four armies were all on the road, entering Yunzhou City from different directions. If the general was stopped halfway, those armies would be as incompetent as headless flies even when they arrived at Yunzhou City.
As a result of the current situation, some people in the Bai Song Army were talking and complaining.
Some people blame General Bai Song for delaying deliberately, which led to today's predicament. If he had set off earlier, he might have bypassed this enemy force and would not have been stuck halfway.
Bai Song was furious after hearing this. This was definitely not his fault.
There must have been some major accident in the frontline battle situation. It was so defeated that it seemed like the defenders did not resist at all.
Otherwise, how could the Tubo Kingdom be divided into three groups and flourish on all sides?
Bai Song first conveyed the information to Chang'an, asking the emperor to continue to mobilize troops and be careful of small armies that penetrated deep into the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty.
At the same time, the army was ordered to set up Shenwu artillery directly at the western Sichuan crossing. Even if the mountain was flattened, the army blocking the road must be driven away as quickly as possible.
After the deployment, Bai Song called Hou Junji to his side and asked: "General Hou, why has the situation in Liangzhou deteriorated like this? You should give me a good explanation, right?"
"Me? What explanation can I have?"
"If I remember correctly, the army near Liangzhou was once your old unit. If it collapsed so quickly, doesn't it need an explanation?"
"General, the deployment here has changed half a year ago. Most of the troops stationed in Liangzhou are the fourth princes."
