Tang Dynasty cavalry, less than 10000 people, escorted nearly 20000 Western Turkic captives, walking on the open grassland like a huge number of wolves, surrounded by a group of sheep.
The setting sun is sharpening the head, drilling under the horizon, the residual gold stained with the Yellow grassland, making the nature more a sacred breath. The cold wind blowing, desolate empty and inexplicable sad.
Since Wenlu came back, Li Hong's face has not been very good-looking, the war is cruel, he knew for a long time, a long time ago. But when faced with unarmed civilians killed, he always has inexplicable sadness and anger in his heart.
"How to deal with these 20000 people Quan Yi, with a black face, let asnaduzhi escape into the deep grassland, which makes him feel shameless.
"They can be escorted to Menyuan and told mingchongyan that they can use them at will, and there will be labors in the future." Li Hong gazed at the Western Turkic prisoners who slowly entered Qiuci and said faintly.
Quan Yi said yes, then saluted behind Li Hong, and then left to arrange the residence for the prisoners tonight and the itinerary for tomorrow.
"Huameng, send a letter to Bai Chun. All the cement stored deliberately will be transported to Qiuci after the Spring Festival." After Li Hong finished speaking, he watched the last group of prisoners enter the city, and slowly walked down from the tower.
"I can't, no day. I'll ask a few people who look like generals all night to find out where the ashnatu branch will camp. Fang Zhan, all the people who contact you on the grassland should move. Even if it snows tomorrow, you should move immediately. I want the exact location of ashnatsu. " After walking down the stairs, looking at the lawlessness of the escort, he said in a hurry.
The winter in the western regions is very long. When the first day is coming, the land of Central Plains has already had signs of recovery from the cold, and even the spring full of flavor can be clearly heard.
However, the western regions are still in the freezing and snowy winter, and the knife like north wind rages across the vast land. The whole western region seems to be a huge and incomparable uninhabited area.
Li Hong has been in the camp for half a month. He and Quan Yi led 7000 people each. They almost lost their way on the grassland and stumbled around the grassland.
But asnaduzhi seems to have disappeared out of thin air. In any case, there is no trace of it. Instead, it startles the prairie wolf on the grassland, and when he hears the sound of horse's hooves, he rushes into the nest.
Xia Zhi and Xiao Xue look at Li Hong, who plunges in. They help Li Hong to take off the armor which is full of ice outside. It's as hard as iron plate. The one who drags hard just takes off from Li Hong, and the cotton padded clothes inside are already wet.
"Don't move." Li Hong put his hands around his chest carefully.
"What's the matter, sir?" Summer solstice and Xiaoxue quickly and carefully take off the armor, and then see Li Hong's arms with a dog?
"Why? Is this a dog, sir Xiao Xue looks at the wolf who hasn't opened his eyes between Li Hong's hands. She is sleeping sweetly between Li Hong's hands.
"Look at you, can there be dogs in this place? Such a small dog has been frozen to death. This is a wolf. I don't think it's a month old. " Li Hong didn't know how old the wolf was. Anyway, it would not be more than two months.
Banmei and Xulan screamed and ran in from the outside. This kind of weather, which was called white hair wind by the local people, had never met in their life.
At this time, if it is sunny outside, the sun should be high in the sky, but now it is dark outside. The thick snow scattered on the main grassland, after the cold wind, immediately permeates the whole world, making people unable to open their eyes. And the snow foam also seems to have long eyes, and they drill into the body toward the neckline 。
The two women shrunk their hands and feet, their pink cheeks flushed with cold. They shook off the snow on their bodies at the door, and then they walked in slowly.
As soon as I came in, I saw three people playing with the sleeping dog: "wow What a lovely cat... "
Half Mei two eyes greedily looking at the thick carpet, struggling to shake, to get up to walk around the wolf, jiaosheng called.
Li Hong is full of black lines on his forehead. Are these people stupid in the palace? Can they be regarded as cats?
"Banmei, are you stupid? Have you never seen a cat and a dog in your life? No, the difference between a cat and a wolf
"Ah? Sir, do you say this is a wolf
"Nonsense, wolf, of course. I don't know if we alerted the wolves, or if the wolves were targeted by some natural enemies. In short, there was no wolf in the wolf's nest. Only this little guy, like a cat, barking at the mouth of the cave, was brought back by me. " Li Hong took the Warm goat milk from the summer solstice, put the bowl in front of the wolf, and pressed his head for others to drink.
The little wolf was also very obedient, in front of the four girls, he also gave Li Hong face. After smelling the goat's milk, he immediately began to drink with his little tongue.
Li Hong feeds the wolf on the grassland, but in the Daming Palace of Chang'an City, Li zhihate to feed Li Hong to the wolf.
"Yan Liben, are you stupid? How many years has he told you? Have you met him? I haven't seen him. How come you still believe his lies? " Li Zhi hates that iron can't be made of steel. He looks at Yan Liben and scolds him."Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude, but I believe your highness will not cheat me." Yan Liben's gray beard is more, but he is still firmly on the side of the prince.
"The officials of the Ministry of work, the craftsmen who will be supervisors, will be released if you say so. If there are so many people, you don't ask what other people mean?" Li Zhi asked, choking his neck.
This old fool, Yan Liben, has been playing by Li Hong's nose for several years. As long as Li Hong's little idiot takes out the Orchid Pavilion preface, Yan Liben seems to become an old fool all at once. What Li Hong wants and what he wants his department to do, Yan Liben does what he wants.
But after so many years, Yan Liben has never seen the shadow of a Orchid Pavilion preface, but the old fool still believes that Li Hong has the Orchid Pavilion preface in his hand.
This time, Li Hong's letter to him was based on the preface of Lanting collection, asking him to send craftsmen officials from the Ministry of labor and the craftsmen who would be supervisors to the western regions after the Spring Festival.
The old fool once again chose to trust Li Hong, so without saying a word, he issued a document. After the first day of the people's Republic of China, he asked the Ministry of labor and the craftsmen who would be the supervisors to go to the western regions.
Li Zhi looked at his obsession, as if he had been an old muddle headed by Li Hong, and said sincerely, "Yan Liben, what is the preface to the Lanting collection? It was the love of the late emperor and my father. Do you think it will be given to the little idiot? Also, was the little idiot born at that time? He also left it to me. I gave it to him on his eighth birthday! How can you believe such nonsense
Yan Liben thought about Li Zhi seriously. His face was cloudy and sunny. After a long time, Yan lipen's turbid eyes looked at Li Zhi, and his words almost didn't make Li Zhiqi dizzy.
"Your Majesty, I feel that you don't want to let the world know that the preface to the Orchid Pavilion collection is in the hands of his highness, so he has been hiding it for his highness and warned him not to show it to the minister easily." Looking at Lizhi's angry expression, Yan Liben believed his words more firmly.
"You old fool, old fool, do you have the truth in your mouth? When have I deceived my ministers? What about him? When did xiaobaichi cheat you
"The minister also chose to believe in his highness, because he felt that the preface to the Orchid Pavilion collection must be in the hands of his highness." At this time, Yan Liben had the demeanor that Wei Zheng was not afraid of death.
"OK, OK, you old fool. Sooner or later, you will be cheated into the grave by him. Yang Wu will drive this old fool out. I don't want to talk to him." Li Zhi's big hand waved, the winter by the old muddleheaded gas out of the disease is not worth when, not to mention near the new year's day, he can not be sick at this time.
Yan Liben did not wait for Yang Wu to invite him. As a minister, he looked at the back of Li Zhi, who was angry and left. After the ceremony, he walked out of the xuanzheng hall with his head held high.
Li Zhi groaned all the way. He was really annoyed by Yan Liben, an old fool. Half way to Penglai palace, he suddenly remembered that he was angry with his patronage. Instead, he forgot about Yan Liben's business of sending craftsmen to the western regions.
It's strange for Li Zhi that Xincheng, Chengyang and Lanling came to Penglai palace together. It's been several months since Li Hong went to the war last time. Why did they come together all of a sudden?
Lizhi slowly walked into Penglai palace, only to see four women's facial expressions were not good, and each of them seemed to have a trace of anger.
"What's the matter? Did the little white fool's conscience find a reply? " Li Zhi looked at several people and asked lightly.
"Yes, Hua Ji, who you sent, is not coming back. I heard that you have something important to do in xuanzheng hall, so Yang Wu asked him to come here first." Wu Mei rubbed her temples and said helplessly.
Li Zhi looked at Hua Ji standing on one side. Instead of taking the letter, Li Zhi asked, "what did that little idiot say? Did you give him my will in his face? "
"My highness, your highness Your highness, this Hua Ji is submissive. He looks at Wu Mei and Li Zhi. He is embarrassed and doesn't know how to say it.
"What's the matter? That little idiot, learn it from me word by word. If you dare to change it, I will never forgive you." Li Zhi's face, which had been relaxed, became gloomy again.
"Yes, your majesty. When the maidservant arrived there, she was about to announce a decree, and then she was taken away by the prince. Then Then... "
"Then what's the matter? What's the standard of hesitation?" Lizhi is very angry. The little idiot must make Hua Ji look ugly again.
