Chapter 3553 Entry

The Tang Dynasty had been established for a long time, and there were many marriages between the Zhenguan ministers and the Li Tang royal family. This not only consolidated Li Tang's rule, but also made the relationship between them intertwined and complicated.

Li Lingkui's mother was Emperor Gaozu's Zhaoyi Yuwen family. The famous Yu Wenhuaji and Yuwen Shiji were his uncles, and the blood of the Yuwen family ran through them. The biological brother of the same mother, King Li Yuanjia of Han, married the daughter of the Fang family in Qinghe as his first wife. She was the legitimate daughter of Liang Guogong Fang Xuanling and the biological sister of Fang Jun.

Therefore, Li Lingkui and Fang Jun are indeed real relatives...

He thought that even if Fang Jun was a stick, he wouldn't be able to kill his sister's brother-in-law with a knife, right? Moreover, although Fang Jun is a tough guy, he still recognizes his relatives very much. Whether he is a relative of his own family or a relative of his mother's family, as long as he can, he will take care of him as much as possible.

……

However, the generals under his command did not think so.

A school captain was worried: "I just don't know if Duke Yue is in the army? If he is, it will naturally not be detrimental to the prince. But if he is not here, those arrogant and powerful generals under his command may not necessarily take the prince seriously... …”

What kind of general leads what kind of soldiers? Fang Jun is unruly, and the Youtun Guards are even more arrogant and domineering. Other military guards are afraid that a fight between soldiers will arouse the emperor's suspicion, but the Youtun Guards have no scruples about this. Who dares to provoke him? Dare to call back on the spot.

Compared with such a major event as rushing to the aid of the East Palace, a mere King of Lu would probably not be taken seriously by the soldiers of Youtun Guards...

Having said this, Li Lingkui, who was originally confident, felt uncertain. The most important thing was that although he was related to Fang Jun, and his mother's family was the backbone of the Guanlong clan, the Yuwen family, and was also the main force in this military remonstrance. At this moment, he Although guarding Xiaoguan has nothing to do with Guanlongmen on the surface, secretly he also undertakes the task of sealing off the northwest and isolating Guanzhong for Guanlongmen.

Once Fang Jun is regarded as a member of Guan Long's party, it will be troublesome...

The more he thought about it, the more panic he felt. He rubbed his hands and paced back and forth in the tower, anxious and unsure of what to do. At this moment, he heard a cry of surprise from outside, but an arrow shot straight up from the bottom of the city, hitting the tower right in the middle. At the edge of the window, the white feathers on the arrow tail trembled slightly, but everyone's eyes were attracted to what was tied to the arrow shaft.

A soldier came forward to unplug the foresight and untied the tied things. They found it was a letter with the four words "King Lu personally expresses it" written on it. He didn't dare to neglect, so he trotted into the tower and presented it to King Lu Li Ling with both hands. Kui.

Li Lingkui quickly took the letter, opened it and read it carefully. All the generals and commanders around him craned their necks, trying to read every word.

These people are Li Lingkui's confidants, and they can be regarded as members of the clan. Although they are related to the Guanlong clan, they are not deeply involved. No one is willing to block the tens of thousands of cavalry in front of them for Guanlong. They only hope that this is the surrender of Youtun Wei. Book, I want Li Lingkui to agree quickly...

It's a pity that Li Lingkui's angry eyes scared everyone and quickly backed away before reading the letter again.

Fortunately, Li Lingkui finished reading it quickly, exhaled a long breath, put the envelope away in his arms, and waited around, saying: "Fang Er is at the city gate at the moment. The letter advises the king to cherish the country and open the city gates to let others go." When entering the customs, he only waits for a stick of incense and does not wait until it is over. Don’t say that he was unprepared!”

Someone wondered: "Fang Er was in the Western Regions, fighting endlessly with the Dashi army, and now he appears here. Could it be that he has completely given up on the Western Regions and brought back all the Youtun Guards and Anxi Army?"

"His! If this is the case, then the Guanlong families will be in trouble! The Youtun Guards are unparalleled in their bravery and invincibility, and the Anxi Army is also the elite among the elites. What can Guanlong do to fight them?"

"This time Fang Er returns to the capital, he will definitely clean up the corrupt situation in one fell swoop. The East Palace will turn defeat into victory, and Guan Long will be destroyed soon!"

……

Seeing that the situation was getting further and further away, someone said anxiously: "Whether Guanlong is destroyed or not, and the East Palace can be reversed, what does it have to do with us? We are just soldiers guarding the city! We should quickly think about whether we should let go of the city gate and let the house move. Enter the second gate! ”

"What else is there to think about? It's not that we are greedy for life and afraid of death. This Fang Er leads his elite soldiers to the pass. How long can we, a mere brigade of troops, be able to hold back even if they are not afraid of death? Let’s release the city gate as soon as possible. For the prince’s sake, Fang Er probably won’t embarrass us.”

……

Everyone was talking so loudly that Li Lingkui's head hurt and he shouted angrily: "Shut up!"

Everyone was so frightened that they all fell silent.

Li Lingkui rubbed his temples and sighed: "Fang Er is a stick. If we don't let go of the city gate now, once he sends his army to capture it, we may not be able to escape. Previously, my uncle had asked me to Keep an eye on the Xiaoguan family, but the current situation is like this, what can I do? For the sake of my brother Pao Ze's life, I can only live up to my uncle's trust."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, but they didn't expect that their prince would actually be involved in Guan Long's military remonstrance...

Li Lingkui sighed with emotion and waved his hand: "Hurry and open the city gate. I will go out in person to meet with Fang Jun. I will definitely find a way for you to survive."

He was secretly entrusted by Yuwen Shiji to block Xiaoguan, so that Guanzhong could be isolated from the inside and outside to ensure the success of the military remonstrance. But at this moment, Fang Jun suddenly came to the city with troops. How could he care about the success or failure of his military remonstrance? But he would inevitably be complained by his uncle afterwards, so he had to put on a show. Guan Long must have his eyes and ears here, and when the time comes, he could pass on his words and attitude to show that he was not betraying Guan Long, but that he could not help himself.

Immediately, a group of generals surrounded Li Lingkui and walked down the city tower, opened the two heavy city gates, and Li Lingkui took the lead and walked out of the city gate.

Under the flying snow, the cavalry in front of them were well-organized and their morale was high. Both the soldiers and the horses looked fierce. They were truly the strongest army in the world.

Li Lingkui came to the front of the two armies and said loudly: "I am Li Lingkui, the king of Lu. May I ask where the Duke of Yue is?"

The cavalry in front of them slowly moved to both sides, and a passage appeared in the middle. A rider came slowly from the rear. He immediately thrust his helmet through his armor and came to Li Lingkui. He clasped his fists on his horse and said, "Wei Chen Fang Jun" , met His Royal Highness King Lu!”

Li Lingkui sighed softly.

I thought that this time Guanlong's remonstrance was guaranteed to win. After the power change in the court, I could also gain some profits by relying on my uncle's speculation. Unexpectedly, just when the sweet dream was in full swing, Fang Er brazenly led his troops back to Beijing and attacked Guanlong's heart, and the situation suddenly reversed.

No matter who wins or loses in the end, he must let go of the city gate at this moment, otherwise his life will not be saved. It's just that in this way, the winner will be rewarded based on his merits, and he won't have any share in it anyway...

No matter how depressed he felt in his heart, he didn't dare to be too confident. He even kicked off his saddle and jumped off the horse. He took two steps forward and came to Fang Jun's horse. He laughed and said, "The Duke of Yue has fought for the country. He has worked hard and achieved great results. I am the king." With admiration in my heart, I will lead my horse to ride for the Duke of Yue today to welcome you into the pass!”

Since you give in, you have to make a good posture. There is no shame in being humble in front of Fang Jun. He has this qualification. It would be extremely stupid to show his dignity as a prince even though he was clearly afraid of death and had to let go of the city gates.

However, Fang Jun did not let Li Lingkui lead the horse. He waved his hand first and said to the soldiers behind him: "Enter the pass quickly and set up camp on the bank of the Weishui River!"

"Here!"

Behind them, tens of thousands of cavalry roared into the city gates like wind and clouds, and rushed straight towards the Weishui River.

Fang Junze and Li Lingkui came to the pass together. Li Lingkui said: "The armies on the left and right still need to rest. Why don't Erlang accompany me for a while, have a glass of wine and chat, and let me listen to Erlang's struggle and killing all the way." Unparalleled achievements! ”

Fang Jun declined and said: "I am returning to Beijing this time and have a heavy responsibility. How dare I stay here for a moment? I just want to defeat the rebels and bring order to the chaos, and then I can have a drink with His Highness."

Li Lingkui sighed in his heart.

The face of the young man in front of him was a bit darker than before, but his originally bright complexion was now stained with wind and frost, his cheeks were sunken, his cheekbones were raised, and his eyebrows as sharp as a knife were also messy, which was enough. I want to see how much suffering and suffering I suffered during this long journey of thousands of miles.

However, at this moment, he suddenly appeared in Xiaoguan. From then on, he entered the pass and it was smooth sailing. All the efforts he made will be rewarded.

Once the Guanlong army is defeated and the prince is secured in the East Palace, the Guanlong forces will be completely driven out of the court. From now on, Fang Jun will be the number one contributor to the East Palace. As long as the prince ascends the throne, he will be the first The auxiliary ministers and prime ministers rule the world, and no one can compete with them.

He raised his hands and clasped his fists, and said in a sincere tone: "In this case, I will not force it. We are real relatives, so we won't say too many polite words. I just hope that Erlang can protect him when he goes to Chang'an and achieve great honors. When he becomes prime minister one day, he will achieve his ambition of reaching the top."

Fang Jun smiled humbly on his face, but he was slandering in his heart: My relative, if I hadn't led tens of thousands of troops to the city, your kid's life would have been in danger. How would you have let me in so easily?

He said: "Thank you for your kind words, Your Highness, but at this moment, the news that the minister has returned to the capital has probably reached the ears of the old thief Chang Sun, and a trap will be laid. Going to Chang'an will be very dangerous."

Li Lingkui was a little embarrassed.

Naturally, he ordered people to send the news back to Chang'an... (End of Chapter)
