Wang Huan was roaring and crying hysterically, and the people next to him didn't know what to do when they saw this scene.
Li Jing shook his head and led the team directly through Luoyang without entering, and continued towards Chang'an.
Li Tai, Li Ke and Li Yuan in the carriage listened to the hysterical wailing voice of Champion Hou Liying outside, and Li Tai and Li Ke felt proud in their hearts.
Li Yuan's face did look a little ugly, "What's going on?"
After Li Yuan said this to himself, although Li Tai and Li Ke were very happy, they still pretended not to know in front of Li Yuan.
"I don't know, but when I hear the cries of people outside, it seems that the Champion has passed away!"
"The Champion has passed away?"
Li Yuan couldn't help but clenched his fists.
"Time is also fate. The champion has never lived a long life since the beginning of Huo Qubing."
Li Yuan's words made Li Tai and Li Ke nod hurriedly. But the two of them were talking there.
"I hate us so much. Why did my father set up a champion for Li Ying? Such a thing shouldn't happen in other titles, but once a champion appears, hey! It's difficult!"
Although Li Tai and Li Ke kept saying good things about Xu Yunyan in front of Li Yuan, which made Li Yuan feel uncomfortable, they were happy in their hearts.
"Okay, great. Li Chengqian has such a master who has had an accident. As long as they work harder to keep their identity, even if they can't keep it, as long as they are alive, those who are unhappy with Li Chengqian will always give Li Chengqian a good reputation. You're causing trouble, Li Chengqian doesn't have many people available."
If these two
Brothers know that Li Chengqian has lost a champion, Master Hou, and his Tiance Guards are obeying his orders attentively. What will it look like?
But while they were lamenting with Li Yuan, Li Min, the famous King of Shu in Chang'an City, was now quite happy.
Li Chengqian cut off his own arm, which reduced the threat a lot. In addition, these two people who competed with me fell to the altar at the same time, so I had a chance.
The more Li Min thought about it, the more proud he became. He hummed a tune every day and walked back and forth in the palace, thinking about how to win over Li Chengqian's cronies to his side.
Soon a person appeared in his mind.
"A champion must have military exploits, but if you don't have military exploits, for the title of champion to be legitimate, you need someone to keep sending you military exploits. And who can help you now? Only me!
Li Chengqian will not send you out casually. As long as I am adding fuel to the fire and planning with you, can't you be used by me? Tiance Guard was mine at that time. "
Li Min was extremely happy and proudly thought about his abilities and began to make arrangements.
Both of his brothers were being fooled by him. Li Tai and Li Ke no longer posed a threat to him. What kind of splash could Li Chengqian make if he was left alone?
Just when Li Min was thinking this and was about to take action, a messenger finally came to the Luzhou County Prince's Mansion in Huainan Road in a panic to report.
Li Daoliang, the prince of Luzhou County, is indeed a literati. He can do arty things easily. He is working with a group of literati from Luzhou.
We held a cultural gathering together, and it was a bit unpleasant to see the flustered messenger during the bustling time.
"Look at you, as the messenger of our Tang Army, how unbecoming you are to be in such a panic. But you have completely lost the face of our Tang Army."
Li Daoliang criticized the messenger regardless. With one sentence, the literati present here were very optimistic about Li Daoliang. At the same time, he said that the messenger in front of him had no etiquette and no knowledge of good and evil. He was indeed a bastard. He didn't even care about the most basic estimates. In time.
But just as these people were talking about what the messenger said, the messenger did not have the temper to accept what they said. Instead, he looked at Li Daoliang and started talking.
"This matter of the County Prince is of great importance. I had to risk my life to rush in. I hope His Highness the County Prince will show his kindness."
When the messenger said this, Li Daoliang became even more bored.
"What's the important thing for you? Is it possible that my son-in-law can't pacify the Turks in the North, and General Li can't pacify Jinling with his troops?"
There are already some clues, and Beidi also fought some good battles. Although His Highness the Crown Prince won first and then lost, I believe that His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely defeat the enemy.
As for the direction of Jinling, I don’t think General Li Jing and Li will be able to quell the situation. What else is urgent for you? "
After Li Daoliang finished speaking, everyone hurriedly complimented Li Daoliang Shengming. In fact, they all knew in their hearts that no matter where problems occurred, Li Daoliang's identity would not be affected.
Even if Chang'an goes north to fight against the Turks and is defeated, he can still obey the direction of Jinling and continue to be his prince.
Even if he fails, if Chang'an wins, he will still be the king of the county, and this will not change.
What Li Daoliang said was very accurate. The messenger in front of him looked at him a little helpless. What should he say?
In the end, scratching his head, he had to say something that made Li Daoliang almost get up from his seat and kick him.
"I'm here to report the funeral."
"A mourner?"
After the messenger finished speaking, Li Daoliang murmured and repeated something and then looked at the messenger in front of him.
Li Daoliang looked at the messenger in front of him fiercely.
"You are here to announce the funeral for whom? You are not here to announce the funeral for me, are you? Am I not living a good life here?"
Li Daoliang was so angry, but looking at the messenger in front of him, it really didn't look like he had red feathers and a red cloak at the beginning, but now he had white feathers, a white cloak, and even a white ribbon tied on his forehead. I couldn't help but feel uneasy.
"Is it possible that someone related to me had an accident? My son is fine in Dongzhou. Could it be that he was in a shipwreck?"
Li Daoliang cried as soon as he finished speaking, "How is this possible? What a big boy I am!"
But Li Daoliang shook his head as soon as he finished speaking.
"Your Highness the Prince, there is nothing wrong with His Highness the Crown Prince. I believe there will be no problem with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince now."
Just as the messenger finished speaking, Li Daoliang looked at the messenger and felt a little unhappy again.
"Then what's going on? Tell me quickly, do you want to make fun of me in front of me?"
Just as Li Daoliang looked at the messenger, with a look like if you don't tell me, I will never let you look good. The other officials next to him were also arty. Next to Li Daoliang, they were chatting with the literati
The poets all blamed the messenger.
"It's a good time. You are dressed as if you are mourning. What are you going to do when you come to the Luzhou County Prince's Mansion? If you don't tell me why, you will be arrested directly."
The messenger looked at these people, talking here one after another. His face was a little red, but when he thought of his mission, he immediately ignored it and spoke fiercely.
"You know you are talking here every day. If we hadn't sacrificed our lives and blood to protect you, how would you have had such an opportunity to talk here!"
After the messenger roared, the scene suddenly fell silent, which surprised Li Daoliang.
"I didn't expect you to be so bloody. Tell me, what's going on? What happened? If what you say doesn't satisfy me, no matter how reasonable you say it, I won't let you go. "
Just as Li Daoliang finished speaking, he was acting upright as a county prince, when the messenger suddenly stood up, startling everyone present.
"What do you want to do?"
But just when everyone didn't understand what the messenger was going to do, the messenger started talking.
"Great victory in the North."
"Forehead?"
This sentence stunned everyone present.
A great victory in the Northland? Then what letter would you send to announce the funeral? You are here to see our joke!
Just when everyone's faces became ugly and they looked at the messenger and wanted to teach him a lesson, the messenger continued to speak.
“The champion’s 30,000 men defeated the 200,000 Turkic cavalrymen in the north, but less than 1,000 Turkic cavalrymen fled.
Since the Western Turkic Khans lost their positions, all those with high status were put to death. "
in this messenger
After saying that, everyone had not yet calmed down.
The messenger continued.
"However, Champion Hou's army of more than 30,000 people fought and in the end there were less than 100 people left."
After the messenger said this, Li Daoliang stood up with a groan.
"I know, I know what's going on. You don't want to come to report to me. It's my good uncle and son-in-law who had an accident. Otherwise, why are you like this?"
After Li Daoliang said this, everyone couldn't help but burst into an uproar.
"What? Is this the one who came to announce the funeral for the Prince of the County?"
Just when these people didn't believe it, the messenger continued to speak loudly.
"The prince deserves to be a prince, and he hit the mark. The champion did not have many accidents after this battle. Although he was hit by two sharp arrows from the Turks, Leng Ran and General Su Dingfang joined forces to pursue and defeat Si Li.
It was just that Zhi lost Si Li and did not want to be a prisoner. When the champion was chasing him, he jumped off the cliff. In order to save him, the champion came back with a living person and presented a gift to his majesty. Together they fell off the cliff. "
After the messenger finished speaking, the scene was shocked.
Really for the champion! And he is a champion who has achieved such great military exploits!
Li Daoliang was stunned when he heard the news.
"Impossible, how is this possible? How could something like this happen to my good uncle and son-in-law? I don't believe it, I don't believe it!"
It's just that Li Daoliang didn't believe it here. The messenger had already knelt down and started crying.
"We don't believe it anymore, but that's what happened. What's more, His Majesty got the news that the champion Hou was killed and has already promoted the champion Hou.
For King Anbei. "
As soon as the messenger finished speaking, Li Daoliang's face turned ashen.
"Impossible, this is impossible! I don't believe it, so what if he is a king? I would rather he don't want this king, even if he doesn't become a champion, he would just live as an ordinary person from now on!"
Li Daoliang felt this, and the people next to him kept trying to persuade Li Daoliang.
"Your Highness, the Prince, please take care of yourself. Your Highness, the Prince, must not have any accidents. We don't want to see this white-haired person sending a black-haired person. But if such a situation does happen, what should we do?"
Under their constant persuasion, Li Daoliang cried like a child at the scene, but he suddenly reacted while crying.
"No, I am going to Chang'an. Since His Majesty has made the champion the King of Anbei, he will definitely return to Chang'an to offer sacrifices before being buried.
I want to go. Although he is my uncle, I want to see him. And look at my poor girl! "
Everyone present did not say anything. Instead, they began to withdraw from the Luzhou County Prince's Mansion. Not long after they left, the entire Luzhou, including Chuzhou in the distance where Xu Yunyan once lived, was instantly in an uproar.
impossible!
There was such a voice everywhere that they did not believe that the champion would die.
