Space-time SWAT

Throughout the twelfth lunar month, there were constant battles in the court, but government affairs were not delayed.

The Anlushan rebellion has been basically put down, and now it is the stage of discussing rewards for meritorious service.When Gao Xianzhi arrived in Chang'an, he delivered the memorial jointly signed by him and Feng Changqing to the Ministry of War, and then the Ministry of War handed it to the temporary cabinet.

After half a month of fierce debate, the rewards for the meritorious soldiers finally came down.

Gao Xianzhi was promoted from Duke of Miyun County to Duke of Miguo, Feng Changqing was granted the title of Duke of Chenyang County, Gao Xianying was awarded the title of Marquis of Liang County, and he was also rewarded with Yongye Field, Meritorious Field and some money and silk.Other soldiers who participated in the war also received their own rewards, and the officers and soldiers who died in battle also received pensions.For military exploits, the imperial court has always rewarded them heavily, and they are not stingy.

Although Gao's family was granted the title of duke and marquis, the emperor was seriously ill and never went to court, so no one was qualified to bestow a duke's mansion or a marquis' mansion in Chang'an.The father and son didn't care, and they still lived in the Anxi Guild Hall safely.There are cooks here to cook, maids to clean up, women to help with laundry, and they don't need to worry about all trivial matters.However, there were very few guests in the Anxi guild hall, and now the entire guild hall is mainly serving them, everyone is sincere and attentive, making them live very comfortably.

Every morning, they will go to court.Although every time I have to watch Princess Taiping and Princess Anle's coveting eyes and listen to their disrespectful molestation, Li Ke, Li Longji and others will come forward to help, and the trouble will not get out of hand.

Regarding government affairs and state affairs, they only express their opinions on matters related to the military and the commercial routes in the Western Regions. The attack can be said to be quite knowledgeable and winking, which makes all parties satisfied.

They arrived in Chang'an within half a month, and they went to several invitations.Father and son are good at writing brochures and reading military newspapers, but they can't write poems and essays. They just make up their numbers and show their attitude when they go there. After finishing, listen to the comments of famous experts, followed by cheering, booing, and watching the excitement.Of course, because both of them are vulgar people who came from the army, they couldn't understand the hints and temptations hidden in the words of some caring people. Answer, let those people secretly curse "vulgar, stupid, and vulgar", but there is nothing they can do.

The father and son are obviously brave and good at fighting. They can take the head of a general in a thousand armies.Gradually, they also gained a place in the court, but it is still unclear whether they will be in Chang'an in the future.

The new year is approaching, and the feudal lords from all over the country have already left. Guo Ziyi, Ge Shuhan and other famous generals who are in charge of suppressing the remnants of the rebels have also come to Chang'an by order.The prosperous imperial capital is becoming more and more lively, and there are more and more disputes.

This day's rest was the birthday of Yongping King Li Chengqi. Li Longji kindly and casually sent out an invitation when he went to court the day before yesterday, and then the Yongping Palace solemnly sent an invitation.

Li Chengqi, king of Yongping, Li Chengyi, king of Hengyang, Li Longji, king of Linzi, Li Longfan, king of Baling, Li Longye, king of Zhongshan, and Li Longti, king of Runan, who died young, were all sons of Li Dan.They are not life and death enemies like Li Xian's sons and daughters. They have always loved each other and respected each other.In the original history, after Li Dan was resettled, he proposed to establish a crown prince. The only eldest son, Li Chengqi, who had been the crown prince before, resigned firmly, and the second prince, Li Chengyi, also resigned.After Li Longji became the emperor, he was also very friendly to his brothers. He appointed high-ranking officials with real power, promoted all county kings to princes, and never suspected or killed each other throughout his life.None of the four brothers rebelled, they supported him very much and made certain contributions to the "Golden Age of Kaiyuan".They can be regarded as a model of the royal family, and are therefore admired and supported by many officials.

These brothers are all in Chang'an now, showing kindness to the Gao family father and son.Gao Xianying thought, if when they launched the "Jinglong Coup", he and his father were required to lead troops into the palace and kill Empress Wei and Princess Anle, he would be happy to do so.

In the past half a month or so, Empress Wei sent people three times to call him into the palace, but he refused every time. The reasons used were that Wu Wang Li Ke invited him to the meeting, Xu Wang Li Sujie invited him to appreciate plum blossoms, several The elders of the cabinet want to listen to his report on the military affairs of the Anxi Protectorate.

If the emperor invites him into the palace, of course these excuses will not work, and he cannot resist the order, but it is only the queen's order, and it comes from a prostitute who is not seen or even hated by most of the royal family, nobles and officials, so he can be confident The land does not obey the imperial edict.Although Empress Wei was angry and broke countless utensils in the palace, she was helpless.

That bewitching and beautiful man, Qing Di, was not angry. Instead, he comforted Empress Wei many times. He used all kinds of means to coax her into a smile and made her whole body feel at ease. .

His every move was watched by Du Li, and he would report any abnormalities in time, so Gao Xianying didn't think too much about his sudden stop paying attention to himself.Before noon that day, he took gifts and went to Yongping Palace with his father.

Yongping Wang Li Chengqi is 27 years old this year, which is not considered a full life, but he organized his birthday banquet very lively.He is clear and gentle, elegant and good at rhythm, able to manage politics and judge the situation and follow the trend. He is a very smart person, exactly like his father Li Dan, so he can live a prosperous life and die well.

After Gao Xianzhi and his son were welcomed into the mansion, Li Chengqi and Li Longji were accompanying the important guests, so they had no time to do so. Hengyang King Li Chengyi was waiting for them in front of the palace.

Gao Xianzhi and his son quickly saluted him, "His Royal Highness King Hengyang."

"Gao Gong, Gao Dalang." Li Chengyi smiled and raised his hand to return the salute, "You two don't need to be too polite."

They did not enter the main hall, but were taken to the big stage in the garden on the left by a steward.There are already many guests sitting there, there are tea and snacks on the table, and operas are being sung on the stage.

The Mrs. Qi who traveled from the Han Dynasty was a person with a very moral bottom line. She never stole famous poems, songs, operas and arias from later generations to put gold on her face.As for the art of Chinese opera, she just tries to change the inherent concepts of the upper class, promote the development of Chinese opera, enhance the personal quality of performers, and improve the social status of Chinese opera workers. The rudiments of modern drama.

On the stage, the famous opera "Loyalty and Loyalty" was sung on the stage, and all the deeds of the famous founding generals of the Tang Dynasty were performed.The loyal people came on stage one by one, they sang, acted, read and played very well, and their high-pitched voices made people's blood boil.The spectators below applauded loudly, slapped the table and stomped their feet, it was really lively.

At this time, noble banquets will roughly separate civil and military affairs.Military generals gathered here to watch the fighting scenes, having a great time.The civil servants have their own beautiful female prostitutes or Qingjun luthiers who play, sing and dance, and sing poems in harmony, which is very elegant.

After Gao Xianzhi and his son went in, they saw a few acquaintances with similar temperaments, for example, the five important generals of Beiting, Anbei, Anton, Annan, and Shanyu who had just arrived in Chang'an.The Anxi Protectorate's Mansion wanted to clean up the mess left after the Anlushan Rebellion, so they did not send anyone to Chang'an, so they were represented by their father and son.

Although the six Protectorate Mansions are spread far and wide, they are all similar in nature, and they often communicate with each other. Seeing them in Chang'an at this time, they naturally have the intimacy of encountering an old friend in a foreign land.

In addition, there are also famous generals Guo Ziyi, Ge Shuhan, Pugu Huai'en and others who had fought side by side with the Gaos and his sons before. whereabouts.Now, although they have completely wiped out the rebel forces, they still haven't caught An Lushan, and they haven't heard of his death, so his whereabouts are a mystery.

Pugu Huaien is a native of Tiele, belonging to the Pugu tribe. He is brave and courageous, and has repeatedly made military exploits. He is currently the envoy of Zuo Wufeng in Shuofang.He is about the same age as Gao Xianying, tall and burly, mighty and bold, and has a very opposite temper with Gao Xianying.Listening to the three seniors discussing the whereabouts of Anlu Mountain, he leaned close to Gao Xianying and said in a low voice, "I heard some news from Huihe that the guy from Anlu Mountain fled to the forbidden snowfield. From a distance, the herdsman seemed to see a group of people entering the lost valley, but never saw them come out again. According to the clothes and appearance of those people he described, it seems that they are Anlu Mountain and its crooks."

"Forbidden snowfield?" Gao Xianying frowned slightly, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to chase after that place."

"That's right, that's a dead place, there's no way out." Pugu Wynn's expression also contained fear, "Ordinary people can't get out after entering, and those who can come out from there are either gods or monsters. I heard that there is such a person in our Chang'an palace." Having said this, his voice was lowered.

Gao Xianying was startled, then suddenly realized, "But that one?"

Pugu Huai'en's eyes were full of meaning, "That's the one."

"So that's how it is." Gao Xianying smiled slightly, took a sip from his teacup, "That one...doesn't know what kind of fairy tricks he has?"

Pugu Huai'en thought for a while, and said in a low voice: "Some news has been passed on for too long. It must have been more than 1000 years. It seems that some unofficial miscellaneous notes were mentioned there in the late period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. People outside I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it’s just passed down like this. It is said that the forbidden snowfield refers to a place in the west to the south, adjacent to Tubo, Huihe and our three tribes of Tiele. Most people can only watch it from a distance. It is very difficult to get close, and you must have great luck to get close, but there is no way out. It seems that there are people living in it, and everyone who comes out of it must have great talent. Among them, there are good and evil, and they are not The same. If you do good deeds, you will help the emperor or famous ministers and generals to rule the country and the world; if you do evil deeds, it will be a disaster for the country and the people. It is said that Emperor Ai in the last years of the Han Dynasty was seduced by the monster who came out of it, and he was lustful, greedy and cruel. Violent, violent levies, killing virtuous ministers, and finally ruined the foundation of the ancestors, the great Han Dynasty. My Tang Taizu raised troops, stood out from all the turmoil, and established the country on behalf of the Han Dynasty, and there were gods and men from there to help. Legend has it that every evildoer In this world, there are gods and men who have come out of the mountains. Now that one has been making waves in the palace for decades, I think a gods and man will come out soon."
