Chapter 1210

Sunny city

The name can be traced back to 700 years ago, but it was called Yanyang town at that time. During the reign of Chengde in the great Zhou Dynasty, complaints were heard all over the world, and people everywhere revolted against the Zhou Dynasty. The northern Great koushu moth held a flag here. One day, 1300 people gathered in the county.

When Xu feimoth gathered for righteousness, he said, I am holding high the banner of righteousness here, throwing my head and sprinkling blood, just to shine the bright sun on my head and shine on the world.

Therefore, it was renamed Yanyang town.

Later, the Zhou army exterminated the rebel army and specially escorted more than 300 rebel leaders such as Xu feimoth to beheading and public display. Because Xu moth is righteous and treats the people very well, the people come to offer sacrifices from time to time. In the following ten years, the great Zhou Dynasty gradually collapsed, and the surviving subordinates of Xu feimoth moved here to guard the tomb for Xu feimoth.

Gradually, the population here is increasing.

During the period of Da Zheng Suihua, it was set as a county. Because this is a very important hub, the population is increasing. The city wall was expanded several times. In the early Sui Dynasty, it was set as the place of Daoism.

Gao Xianze is not very old. He is in his early 40s. The man is of medium build and looks a little thin. This man has a strong bookish spirit. He doesn't look like a hero who supports tens of thousands of soldiers. Gao Xianze has a well-known nickname, which is called Gao blind.

That's because he loved reading very much since he was young, and he forgot to eat and sleep. He became short-sighted early. Later, he couldn't recognize them unless they came very close. Or because of this, his ears are very sensitive. It is said that he can judge who is walking by identifying the sound of footsteps from tens of meters away.

Of course, only those he knows.

When Fang Xie's army arrived at Yanyang City, it stopped more than ten miles away from Yanyang city. In order to show respect for Gao Xianze, Fang Xie sent someone to Yanyang city to inform him. Then he ordered the army to rest in place. He came to Yanyang city with more than a dozen capable men and a hundred elite cavalry schools.

Knowing that Fang Xie had arrived, Gao Xianze dared not delay and personally welcomed him out for ten miles.

"Humble high Xianze, knock on the Lord."

Gao Xianze was very polite. After his men reminded him who was Fang Xie, he quickly stepped up and down, lifted his robe and knelt down to give a big gift. Although the great Sui Dynasty has collapsed, the great Sui country is still there. Fang Xie was the king of the Sui Dynasty. Gao Xianze's salute was also within the rules. However, it can be seen that this person does not have much resistance to each other.

"Please rise, my Lord."

Fang Xie reached out and helped Gao Xianze up. Gao Xianze inherited the throne of Duke, and his ancestors were also one of the founding heroes of the Sui Dynasty.

Fang Xie saw that Gao Xianze's eyes narrowed almost into a gap and knew that the rumors were true. He took out a small box from his cuff, opened it, took out a pair of glasses and handed it to Gao Xianze: "when I was in Zhuque mountain, I had nothing to do to find a craftsman to make several of these gadgets. I happened to have one in my hand. I'll give you a meeting gift."

"What is this?"

Gao Xianze took over and thanked, but he didn't know what it was.

Fang Xie put on his glasses for Gao Xianze and asked, "how do you feel?"

In fact, Fang Xie doesn't know whether this thing is useful or not. He doesn't know how his eyesight is. If it doesn't work, it's meaningless. However, it seemed that Gao Xianze's reaction was very strong. After blinking his eyes, he was greatly impressed. Looking at his expression, Fang Xie knew that the glasses were still helpful to Gao Xianze.

"Magic!"

Gao Xianze was obviously a little excited: "this thing has such wonderful use!"

Fang Xie laughed and walked with his arms.

The two exchanged greetings all the way. It seemed that they also talked about speculation. Gao Xianze seemed very interested in the war in eastern Xinjiang and asked Fang Xie about eastern Xinjiang from time to time. Fang Xie said something casually, and Gao Xianze was shocked.

After entering the city, he spoke in Gao Xianze's house because it was still early.

Fang Xie didn't let Gao Xianze talk in the living room, but directly entered Gao Xianze's study.

There are only four people in the room.

Fang Xie, Gao Xianze, Wu Yidao, and Xu Hu, a counselor under Gao Xianze.

Xu Hu's name sounds like a big man, but in fact he is a thin old man. This person should be in his 60s. He looks like an old scholar in a private school. Because he had no fame, he wore a cloth coat. But because it's too thin, this new looking dress doesn't fit.

"Do you know why Gu came by a detour?"

Fang Jie asked directly.

Gao Xianze was not surprised. He smiled and replied, "the Lord cares about the weight of Yanyang city. In fact, he also cares about the tens of thousands of soldiers in the hands of low rank. Of course, perhaps the Lord cares more about... What attitude is low rank."

His answer seemed more direct.

Gao Xianze glanced at Xu Hu and Xu Hu came forward to pour tea for Fang Xie: "Lord, in fact, the Duke has been looking forward to his coming. Before, the Duke has been sending people to listen to the prince's rules and routes, where to go and how long to return to Beijing. The duke said that if the prince came back to Yanyang City, everything will be fine. If the prince didn't go to Yanyang city but directly returned to Chang'an, I'm afraid it's not good news."

These are two wonderful people.

It seems that the words "like-minded" are true.

Gao Xianze looks like a weak scholar, but he is very straightforward. The Xu Hu He trusted seemed to be a pedant, but his temperament was so straightforward.

"The Duke also said that if the prince didn't come, I'm afraid it would be a big general who would come in the future with 100000 soldiers."

Xu Hu paused slightly: "in fact, it seems that many people are looking forward to the king's sending 100000 troops."

……

……

From the beginning, Gao Xianze's attitude was beyond Fang Xie's expectation. When Fang Xie talked with Wu Yidao and others before, according to external rumors, Gao Xianze was a grass-roots figure. He was always waiting for the biggest wind to blow.

However, seeing is better than hearing.

The moment Fang Xie saw Gao Xianze, he knew that the rumor was false. And these rumors are often what others want him to hear. Not long ago, he was constantly mentioned that Gao Xianze was not a good person and was not trustworthy. Fang Xie might not have considered whether the person he told him had any purpose before, but since he speculated with Wu about a lot of things, Fang Xie began to observe some small things that are not very obvious in ordinary days.

"The reason why Gu doesn't let you meet in the living room is that the living room is too big."

Fang Xie smiled and said, "too big, there are many people."

Gao Xianze's face changed slightly and seemed to understand Fang Xie's attitude.

"Actually, I've been worried since I heard about the Lord's return... For more than a year, someone came to Chang'an City from time to time. At the beginning, he didn't indicate any attitude. He just said that the imperial court attached importance to Yanyang city and reassured me. However, after a guy who claimed to be a confidant of Lord Dugu came here three months ago, I realized how much evil was hidden here. That man He said that he had brought the meaning of Lord Dugu. Tell me, if the prince calls a humble post to Beijing after returning to Beijing, don't come in, or you will die without a place to bury. "

Gao Xianze looked at Fang Xie and said with some disappointment, "Lord, what you entrusted is not human."

Wu Yidao's face changed slightly and looked at Fang Xie subconsciously.

Fang Xie did not change his face.

"What else did Dugu tell you?"

Fang Xie asked.

Gao Xianze said: "the others didn't say it. Dugu just sent someone to tell me not to enter Chang'an casually. He thought that the prince should get rid of his humble position."

Xu Hu said: "During the more than one year since the LORD left Chang'an City, many people have come to Chang'an city. Not long ago, general Cui Zhongzhen sent someone to tell the Duke that if the Lord returns to Beijing to summon the Duke, the Duke should go to Beijing immediately and don't bring people. Otherwise, it will arouse the suspicion of the Lord and be very unfavorable to the Duke. General Cui meant that if the Lord asked the Duke to go to Beijing, he should go immediately and be light The car is simple. Don't delay. "

Xu Hu said, "these two are important officials under the Lord. One is in charge of the government and the other is in charge of the army. They are all important figures in the black flag army. How can they have such different attitudes?"

These two people, you say a word and I say a word, but they cooperate very well. Obviously, the two of them have been prepared. They have negotiated before. They don't make any temptation, but directly ask questions. But it's no wonder that this can reflect that Gao Xianze and Xu Hu are extremely intelligent people.

Fang Xie's current strength is unparalleled in the world. Gao Xianze knows that if he tries to test something, he's afraid it will backfire. Instead, he might as well speak out his thoughts directly. Even if he has some soldiers and horses, he can be compared with the black flag army, such as stones.

Such directness may embarrass Fang Xie, but they obviously want to express their attitude more urgently.

That is, the other party can't resist.

Fang Xie didn't directly answer Gao Xianze and Xu Hu's words, but asked: "then the Duke thinks, which one of Dugu Wenxiu and Cui Zhongzhen is really for you?"

"I'm afraid... It's not for a humble position."

Gao Xianze was silent for a while, looked up at Fang Xie and said word by word: "I'm afraid... It's not for the Lord, okay?"

……

……

After lunch, Fang Xie went back to the room Gao Xianze had prepared for him to have a rest. Wu Yi walked in behind him with a solemn face.

"My Lord, did Dugu really cross the boundary?"

Wu Yidao first spread his cultivation strength and asked after he found that there was no eavesdropping nearby.

Fang Xie went over and closed the window.

He shook his head and lowered his voice: "well, it seems that Dugu really let me down."

What he said was that Dugu did have a problem, but he shook his head. Wu Yidao was stunned at first, but he soon understood Fang Xie's meaning. Fang Xie took a pen from the table and wrote on the paper: the wall has ears. The people here are not experts, but special people in Tianfu.

Wu Yi frowned and wanted to ask Fang Xie how he knew. He finally endured it.

Fang Xie stretched out his hand and wiped the ink with the power of cultivation. The white paper seemed to have not been moved. Fang Xie put the paper in order.

"Go back"

Fang Xie raised his voice a little: "however, what Gao Xianze said can't be believed. What Dugu said and what Cui Zhongzhen said are all the words of Gao Xianze. I'm not sure that Dugu had a different heart, because... Maybe Gao Xianze is their person. He's just saying what they want me to hear."

Wu Yisheng gave a sound.

Although Wu Yidao didn't know why Fang Xie was so careful, he knew that since Fang Xie said that walls have ears, there would obviously be no mistake. The two men said something that didn't have any practical significance, and then Wu Yi left immediately. Fang Xie lay down in bed and rested for a while. Then he shouted to the outside, "come and find Gao Xianze and let him see me."
