Chapter 623 The end?
Chapter 623 The end?
"I don't want to."
Yang He suddenly moved his body, Zhao Yushu's head trembled, and it was unclear whether he was laughing or not. Lan Rong narrowed his eyes even more. Only Di Xiang still maintained his original expression. It was unclear whether he did not react or his expression management was too good.
"Oh?"
Prime Minister Di straightened up and said, "Are you willing to let the world fall apart for the sake of Li Huan?"
Li Qi seemed to have recovered a little spirit, and pointed at Zhao Yushu: "Sixth Master is a rare talent, and the world changes hands easily with his actions. How dare I, a mere scholar, snatch such a great achievement? If Prime Minister Di does not abandon me, why not let me go to Wuguan?"
"Wuguan?"
Zhao Yushu curled his lips as he listened to Li Qi's sarcastic flattery.
"With General Wang in person at Tongguan, I think it should be safe, but Wuguan is still in the hands of the Fourth Prince. Even if Li Tong is sure of victory and can mobilize the armies of Hedong and Hebei to attack, as long as Wuguan is not recaptured, the Liao people will always have a way out."
Di Xiang nodded: "Okay, as you wish."
The situation was chaotic and there were not many people available. A talented prime minister like Li Qi would naturally not be allowed to follow Li Huan to visit the grave. No matter where Li Qi finally chose to go, when he returned victorious, the new emperor would personally commend him, and then he would be a member of the new Tang Dynasty.
"You mean, you want me to go to the southeast?"
After Li Qi left, Zhao Yushu raised his hand weakly: "I killed the son of Duke Yue in Jiangning before. Are you planning to let me kill Li Jian again? Duke Yue will definitely fight me to the death. It will be twice the effort for half the result."
Of course Zhao Yushu didn't want to go. He had fought to the death in Yizhou, and now he was going to kill people again before his wounds were fully healed. And he was going to kill people in the territory of the Duke of Yue, whom he hated to the core. Even if I am the number one double-flowered red stick in the academy, you can't play like this!
"Ling'er will go with you, please come back quickly, as you still have important things to do."
Lan Rong had obviously already informed Di Xiang, and even someone in Dongnan.
Zhao Yushu suddenly realized that this was a political deal among the high-level officials of the Tang Dynasty. After Lan Rong took side, when the world was unified, he would at least be able to rank among the top three in the civil service team in Chang'an. With his cultivation, the position of prime minister in the future was almost certain, and the title of duke was also in his pocket, and even the title of prince might be possible.
The trip to the southeast was to gain great political merit for his future son-in-law, commonly known as gilding.
But he couldn't say it explicitly, so he just mentioned that Lan Ling would go with them. If there was really danger, Lan Rong would never let his precious daughter take the risk. For example, during the trip to Yizhou, Lan Ling was held in Dongdu by Wei You.
In Zhao Yushu's eyes, this kind of gilding is unnecessary. He is the sixth master of the academy, and now his reputation is so great that even three-year-old children probably know him. Except that he is not yet an inner realm, there is almost no flaw. If he wants to be an official, no, let alone an official, if he says he wants to be an emperor, Wei Lao San will probably think about how to let Li Tong marry him...
But it was different in Lan Rong's eyes. The underworld had its own rules, and the imperial court naturally had its own rules. Even the old gods could do nothing to Li Huan while he was squatting in the Daming Palace. But as soon as Prime Minister Di and General Wang knelt at the door, he had to abdicate obediently.
Fists are the guarantee of rights, but not the masters of rights.
With this achievement, Zhao Yushu will have a smooth career in the Tang Dynasty, both in the government and in the underworld.
Zhao Yushu thanked Lan Ling a hundred times in his heart. This love from an old father was so deep.
"I have some things to take care of. I will leave in two days."
Zhao Yushu didn't ask Lan Rong what big thing he was going to do next, he could guess it himself.
The arrangement of the former leader of Honglian, Lord Zuo Shi, in Yizhou was destroyed by himself. Most of the cultivators in the world are still alive and well. The reborn Yan Hui was taken away by Shushan and suppressed. The war between Tubo and Liao was a complete defeat. The Tang Dynasty, which changed its leaders several times, was not only not swallowed up, but regained its vitality and had the possibility of revival.
Although most of the credit went to scheming people like Wei You, Li Tong and Di Xiang, the key blow was still delivered by Zhao Yushu. At least he successfully prevented the disaster from expanding.
He deserved the title of MVP.
If nothing unexpected happens, the next step is nothing more than following the trail of the Left Envoy to the grassland, and then cooperating with the teacher and two senior sisters to find out the details of the Lord of the Underworld who has disappeared without a trace. This person is so hidden that now, except for a possible suspect, no trace of him has been revealed.
Of course, the premise is that there are no accidents.
Outside the city of Chang'an, Zhao Yushu and Yang He parted ways. Yang He was going to take over Jianmen Pass, stabilize the situation in Jiannan Road, and guard against possible counterattacks from Tubo. The Red Lotus Sect had already semi-openly submitted to Li Tong, and Yang He's mission was almost completed.
"You really won't stay in Chang'an for a few days?"
"Once the world is settled, I will definitely come and stay for a while."
Yang He looked at the towering city walls, feeling filled with emotion. He had never been so close to Chang'an, nor so close to his dream.
"Okay, bring Black Deer back when the time comes. Don't spend all your time around girls and forget about his good brother."
"Haha, okay, although the southeast is probably fine, it is still better to be cautious. If there is an accident, go to Qiantang immediately."
"Yes, it's your territory."
"Take care of yourself."
"Take care of yourself."
Yang He left in a very free and easy manner, and took with him a letter from Zhao Yushu, asking Bujie to go to Dabei Temple if he was still in Yizhou. Zhao Yushu vaguely felt that Yanhui's matter would not end so easily.
After Yang He left, news came from the front line that the remaining Tibetan troops had completely left Songzhou and returned to the plateau, but the Red Lotus Sect still controlled Songzhou City. They merely let them pass without handing over the city defenses. It was almost foreseeable that before long, the plateau would fall into civil strife that would be enough to shake the foundation of the country.
The Tang Dynasty garrison at Jianmen Pass was reorganized on the spot, with one part returning to its original station and the other part waiting for Yang He to take over. The officials of Yizhou reopened the passage to and from Chang'an, and the southwest of the Tang Dynasty was finally pacified.
The three members of the Xue family returned to Chang'an City, but they did not rebel as they expected. The main culprit Li Huan had already left the Daming Palace, and it was impossible for them to break into the tomb of Emperor Taizong. Fortunately, General Wang immediately arranged for them to conquer the Liao Lord. The entire Xue family dressed in white, and will continue the legend of the Xue family generals in the near future.
After the Tang Dynasty recovered, it began to show its powerful national strength. The compromise of the Red Lotus Sect meant that the Sixteen Armies of the Southern Court had no worries. They attacked from all sides almost frantically, intending to cooperate with Li Tong to encircle and annihilate the Liao army south of the Eastern Capital. The Southern Court King Yelu Rang and his 30,000 Folding Sword Guards suddenly turned from hunters into prey, and their defeat was inevitable.
Zhao Yushu and Lan Ling stood together on the top of the Chang'an city wall, looking at a young man and woman riding away in the distance, and waved their hands.
Fu Yun waved his hand from afar, and headed south with Miaoyinhai.
"So many things have happened in just one year. Tell me, is it because of you?"
Zhao Yushu spread his hands helplessly: "Maybe, who makes me most likely to be the son of the plane? Speaking of this, do you still remember that I have another story to tell you?"
"Which world is this story about?"
They looked at each other and smiled. It turns out you knew everything.
