In fact, when Jiang Tian's proposal was jointly submitted by Zhu Street Envoy and Deputy Supervisor Song. Those who had been hiding behind the scenes and watching the situation were completely unable to sit still. On the afternoon when they discovered the abnormality in the Great Glazed Light Tower and signed a joint complaint, people arrived at the scene one after another.
The first ones to arrive were some of the Henan Prefecture's military officers, such as Silu Canjun and You Sima. Then, after seeing the demonstration in the greenhouse with their own eyes, they soon became the Shaoyin of Henan Prefecture who arrived in person. ; He is also a figure second only to Chang'an Jing Zhaoyin in terms of power and status among the sixteen palaces in the world.
Then, after the Henan Prefecture Shaoyin hid his face and retreated, there were also the censors from Du Ji Dao, the inspectors of Dongdu Ji, the monks and records department of Dongdu, the doctors of the Ministry of Rites and Temples, and the ministers of Honglu Temple. Xuan Shu, wait. Representatives of nobles, powerful people, or interested departments arrived at the foot of Longmen Mountain one after another.
After they left thoughtfully one after another, they were followed by the Minister of Punishment, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the Shaoqing of Weiwei from the Dongdu Branch; officials from the Transportation Department and the Investigation/Criminal Department of Henan Province... finally arrived at the scene. There was even an eunuch from Da Nei, Huang Ergong, the supervisor of the inner garden of Dongdu.
Of course, things have developed to this point; whether it is the Zhu Street Envoy of the Jinwu Lingwei Mansion, the Deputy Warden Song of the Wude Division, or Jiang Tian, the half-assed left patrol judge of the Yushitai Temple; or even a half-way addition Zheng Jinwu who came in, no matter his rank or power, was not strong enough to continue to dominate the subsequent events.
As a result, the original Zhu Street Envoy's men and Song Deputy Custody Officer's men were quickly cleared out in a relatively polite manner; they were replaced by the subordinate officers of the Wude Division, one of the five commanders, the Shangsi Commander Envoy. , coupled with the First Department of the Fangcheng Beijing Army belonging to the right prison guard, directly entered the scene to take over many subsequent situations.
You must know that in the Wude Department, although there is only one word difference between the personal official and the personal official, it represents a natural difference in identity and status. Because the former is the appearance and pomp of the emperor, and it is also the choice of the nobles who come from a privileged background. The latter are minions hidden in the darkness, and are even meaner in appearance.
As one of the top six guards among the Nanya armies who can stand alongside King Wu, the origins of the left and right prison guards are even more special. As the daily supervisor of the guards in the palace, it is the exclusive agency in charge of the guards and gate registrations of the palace. Starting from Gao Lishi in the Tianbao period, eunuchs have served as generals and generals in each generation.
Therefore, although the left and right prison guards, the left and right Qianniu guards, and the left and right Jinwu guards were nominally part of the Nanya Guards, they were the only guards among them who were not subject to the jurisdiction of the political affairs hall formed by the prime ministers of foreign dynasties in terms of administrative power. system, but usually only listen to the special existence of the emperor's close ministers and eunuchs/exclusive weapons of the military order of the outer dynasty.
But for Jiang Tian, their appearance also meant another thing. This joint petition has touched the sensitive nerves of some people; that is to say, even if they only partially accept Jiang Tian's suggestion, it will be a big trouble for Henan Prefecture and even the temples in Dujidao. .
Therefore, on the sixth day after arriving in Dongdu, Jiang Tian not only secretly circulated the nickname "Living Tai Sui" only within the Jinwu Guard, but also unknowingly unlocked a new achievement of "Bald Donkey Disaster". However, when he wanted to return to the hotel where he was staying, he continued to be received by Cheng Shilian and Xin Pingping.
However, they saw that the carriage they were riding in did not approach the city gate, but turned directly onto another road in the suburbs. However, whether it was Li Huan who was driving the car, or Zhang Wusheng who was sitting in the back of the car, or even Lin Jiulang who continued to lead a group of Jinwu disciples as guards, they all looked indifferent.
Gu Hao
Therefore, Jiang Tian naturally calmed down and put down the folding case in the car to write and draw. After all, after leaving Chang'an, he had not written for several days, thinking it was a way to relieve stress and entertain himself. When he finished writing two and a half pages with great speed, the carriage also circled outside Luoyang City.
When he looked up again, he found that the sun had set very clearly in the west; and he had arrived at the northwest corner of the outer suburbs of Luodu. A deserted city tower submerged in lush vegetation. And Jiang Tian couldn't help but feel a vague memory-sinking feeling, and he said again: "Could it be that this is Jin Yong City?"
"Yes, it is Jin Yong City, and it is also the place where I was ordered to lead the recording." Chen Wentai, who was riding his horse in front, turned his head and responded: "There were really many people talking about it before, and there were also eye spies from all sides. Come on, when you get here, you can have a detailed talk with the recorder."
The earliest record of Jinyong City comes from "Luoyang Diji" written by Lu Ji, the Seven Bamboo Sages of the Jin Dynasty: "There is Jinyong City in the northwest corner of Luoyang City, and there is a building a hundred feet high in the northeast corner. It was built by Emperor Wen of Wei." It is said that it is a city, but it is actually three buildings. Together, it is a small city-sized military fortress that was also the place of confinement for the deposed emperors of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Later, in the Southern and Northern Dynasties, Jinyong City was surrounded by Mang Mountain to the north and Dacheng to the south. The city walls were wide and solid, and the terrain was dangerous. The four towns in Henan have also become battlegrounds for military strategists. When Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty moved south, Luoyang had not yet been repaired and built, so Jinyong City was temporarily used as the capital. Later, the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Qi Dynasty used it to fight continuously.
By the end of the Sui Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and Jin Yong City became an important military location. Li Mi of Wagang Army proclaimed himself emperor here and set up a large procession of officials to pay homage. "The sound of drums and drums can be heard in Dongluo". In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, Luoyang County was still located in Jinyong City. In the 6th year of Zhenguan (AD 632), it was moved to Yudefang, the eastern capital. Since then, Jinyong City has been gradually abandoned.
The existing Jinyong City is rectangular in shape from north to south, with several twists and turns in the east, west and north city walls, and is in good preservation condition; the south city wall was destroyed due to the northward movement of the Luo River. There are a total of 12 city gates in the west, north and east walls, including 3 in the west wall. There are two towers in the north wall and three towers in the east wall. The layout is modeled on the high-low structure of Santai in the north and south of Yecheng.
Among them, the northernmost and highest town is where the true form of Jinyong City is located. The small city at the southern end, which was the most severely damaged and could barely see the outline of the city platform, was called the Old City; the middle city connecting the two was called Luoyang Barrier. Amid Chen Wentai's explanation, the carriage drove along the grass toward Luoyang Base.
However, after passing through the ruins of the Ximen Tower with overgrown grass and cracked walls to the southwest of Luoyang Fort, the style of painting in front of us suddenly changed. The road buried in the grass suddenly became a little too clean, and behind the ruins of the city building and the ruins on both sides, there were still vague figures turning and monitoring.
Just as the carriage followed the clean and tidy road, it came to a collapsed high wall archway. Jiang Tian suddenly saw Juma and Lanzha, as well as Sergeant Jinwu who was wearing a pair of armor uniforms and holding a fork gun, a hook chain and a crossbow, as well as a revolving crossbow hidden in the grass. At this moment, he suddenly understood something.
Obviously, compared to the Kiyomasaji who was officially established by Ouchi and had the same grass-roots team, the existence of people and things here was the real reason why he was summoned to the Eastern Capital!
