The good news first spread throughout the army, then countless captured war horses and weapons were transported into the camp, and then the three thousand surrendered prisoners were dejectedly strung into a string with long ropes, tied with their hands behind their backs and locked up.

The Anxi Army camp was boiling, and the cheers of the soldiers shook the sky. After Chang Zhong and Shen Tian's soldiers returned to the camp, they immediately handed over the heads to the rear army. The civil servants of the rear army had already received Gu Qing's order and prepared a large basket of silver in advance. After the soldiers handed over the heads, they immediately cashed out the rewards.

The soldiers holding the heavy rewards smiled and returned to the camp, vividly describing the process of the battle, and then proudly showed off the rewards they had just received. The soldiers who did not participate in the war in the tent were jealous and jealous. Invisibly, the soldiers in the camp were eager to fight became increasingly excited. Even Gu Qing did not expect such an effect.

The rewards that should be rewarded are all envious. These two types of people are now in the Anxi army.

One day after the victory of regaining Qingzhou was suppressed, Gu Qing had his own plans. He needed the Anxi Army to make a name for himself. A great victory was divided into two, which sounded more powerful. What was important was that Li Longji would reward him more.

That night, Gu Qing asked Huangfu Sisi to cook a few more dishes, which was considered to be a celebration for herself.

After all, he also made contributions, so he decided to attack the aid of the points. In theory, Gu Qing should rank first in the merit book, but he was embarrassed to compete with the soldiers who were actually working hard on the battlefield, so his name was not on the merit book.

Huangfu Sisi was also very happy when the first battle won. The woman was in a good mood and the taste of cooking was a bit more indescribable than before. It seemed that the excitement hormones were squeezed out and sprinkled into the dish, which tasted very special...

"Why did the dish have a cumin flavor today?" Gu Qing frowned, then put his nose over and sucked it in surprise. Well, it was not her body fragrance, and there was no cumin flavor on her body. Maybe Yang Guifei had this taste.

Huangfu Sisi was startled and her pretty face turned red and glared at him: "I put some cumin in the dish, can't it?"

Gu Qing suddenly realized that cumin was cumin, which was native to Central Asia and was slightly grown in the Western Regions of the Tang Dynasty.

Huangfu Sisi is a woman who seems to have a fanatical collection of spices. She had a thousand kilograms of pepper in front and now she also had cumin.

"Don't tell me, you have also stocked up a thousand pounds of cumin, right?"

Huangfu Sisi hummed and said, "Although cumin is valuable in the Tang Dynasty, it is far worse than pepper. What should I stock up on cumin? I didn't bring much, just enough to cook."

Gu Qing nodded and suddenly laughed: "Wang Gui's dog thing brought a few kilograms of pepper to Yuanzhou City yesterday, and sold it for hundreds of stagnant. The pepper is indeed very valuable. If it weren't for the war, many merchants in the city had run away, and they would probably have sold it at a higher price. Sisi, you can make our Anxi Army make a fortune."

Huangfu Sisi blinked: "How does the Marquis plan to thank me?"

Gu Qing thought about it and said seriously: "I hang a sign around your neck, and I will write a few words with my own hands. How about 'The only designated sponsor of Anxi Army'? I allow you to hang this sign to swagger in the camp, and let Han Jie follow you with his personal guards to help you achieve your reputation."

Huangfu Sisi spat and said, "Bah! Do you want me to parade on the street?"

"There is another Xie Fa. If you need advertisements in your broken inn, I can order the soldiers of the Anxi Army to use all their strength to shout at the enemy in front of the formation whenever they are in the formation, "Kucha City Fuzhi Inn, all those who have stayed in it have said it', "Since I stayed in Fuzhi Inn, my mother has no longer worried that I will suffer from insomnia."

Huangfu Sisi was stunned for a moment, then opened her mouth and laughed loudly regardless of her manners, making her laugh so hard that she couldn't help but feel uncontrollably.

"Mr. Marquis, you are really... so crazy! Haha! Why are the thoughts in your mind so strange? Could it be that this is the way the powerful is so unique, so everything is easier to succeed, and wealth and power are at your fingertips?"

Gu Qing curled his lips: "A thousand years later, such bloody advertisements are everywhere, you know how to use a hammer."

Huangfu Sisi laughed again, then suddenly hooked his neck with her hands, exhaling like orchids, her eyes full of soft and tender charm.

"I don't want anything. I just want the marquis to give me a title, and my wife also needs to marry her by a matchmaker..."

Gu Qing raised his eyebrows: "Do your heartbeat faster again? The condition cannot be delayed, I will help you check..."

After saying that, Gu Qing suddenly took action and quickly and accurately grasped something indescribable.

Huangfu Sisi instantly lost all strength and fell softly into Gu Qing's arms.

…………

Chang'an City.

After An Lushan raised his army, Chang'an City became in chaos. The news came into the city, and the people fled one after another. Theft and robbery cases in the city were doubled, and the good security environment was destroyed overnight.

Later, An Chongzhang defended Puzhou, and the rebels attacked for a month but still had not been broken. Chang'an City finally recovered a little calm. However, bad news soon came, Puzhou City was not defended in the end. An Chongzhang abandoned the city and turned to Qingzhou. Then Qingzhou did not defend, and An Chongzhang abandoned it again.

As one city after another was destroyed, the rebels were getting closer and closer to Chang'an City. Chang'an City was once again in panic. The people took their families out of the city to escape. The 12 Chang'an Guards rectified their troops and trained their soldiers every day, and the atmosphere was tense and panicked.

Li Longji did not sleep for several nights in a row. Since the An Lushan rebellion, Li Longji finally regained his state as a wise ruler in middle age. He got up early and went to bed late every day, dealing with the government affairs day and night, arranging troops, and allocating military funds.

A seventy-year-old man only slept for a few hours in a few days. If he didn't look at the previous cause, the picture was once sad, like a down-and-out elderly man who had to run around for life without a pension in his later years.

It was early summer and the weather was a little hot. Yang Guifei sat alone in the Longchi Pavilion in Xingqing Harem, staring at the pond of spring water in a daze.

From the beginning of knowing the news of An Lushan's rebellion, Yang Guifei was completely confused. She never expected that the fat and silly fat man had a wolf ambition. When he was in Chang'an, he regarded himself as his adopted son and treated her with his mother's courtesy. Not only that, he did better than any prince of Li Longji in filial piety.

However, he turned against it.

The human heart is really terrible. How could he change his face in a blink of an eye when he said that he was so gentle and filial to him? He said he was wrong and turned his back. Life is like a play. An Lushan performed this scene so successfully that he deceived the world.

Holding her chin with one hand and staring at the pool water, Yang Guifei's stunning appearance revealed a little sadness.

In order to quell the rebellion, Sanlang has not returned to the harem for many days. He has been summoning court officials to discuss matters every day, arranging troops, and allocating food, grass and weapons. He heard from the palace maid that he has not been in his eyes for several days.

Yang Guifei felt a little distressed, but she didn't know how to help him share his worries. After all, she was just a woman born for love, and she had nothing to do except love.

Outside the pavilion, a palace maid hurriedly walked in and saluted after entering the pavilion.

"Empress, Your Majesty is here, and the Holy Lord has arrived at the Xingqing Hou Hall."

When Yang Guifei was happy, she stood up and hurriedly said, "I will go to welcome the emperor."

As he was speaking, Li Longji walked over the water pavilion on the pool and walked into the pavilion. Behind him was only Gao Lishi, and Yang Guifei and the palace maids bowed their bodies and saluted.

Li Longji nodded faintly. Yang Guifei raised her eyes and saw that Li Longji looked much haggard. She didn't see him for a few days, but she seemed to have been several years old. The white hair on her head, wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, and even the old spots on the back of her hands. Each sign was silently stating a fact that Li Longji was really old, like a small boat that was about to fall apart, so old that she could no longer withstand any small storm.

"Sanlang... I've made you suffer." Yang Guifei's eyes burst into tears with tears in her eyes.

Li Longji sighed tiredly and tried hard to squeeze out a smile: "A small rebellion is not to be afraid. I have worked hard for a few days and raise my hand to level it. Don't worry, my wife."

After closing his eyes, Li Longji said tiredly: "I have discussed matters with the court officials these days, and during this period I have also talked about the gains and losses from the beginning of Kaiyuan to the present. I found that I have really done a lot of things wrong. An Lushan's rebellion has also caused my faults..."

Concubine Yang said curiously: "Sanlang is the emperor, how can he be wrong?"

Li Longji smiled slightly and said, "I and the court officials are honest. During the Kaiyuan period, I was actually a wise ruler, but after that... since..."

"Since what?"

"Since I met my wife, I have been infatuated with her all day long and ignored political affairs. During this period, I have many slandered court officials. Whenever I report to me, I will say that the world is peaceful in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. I am in a mess. At that time, I believed it. What else do I need to do in a prosperous era? Of course, I don’t have to do anything. The prosperous era can last for thousands of years. Therefore, I worked with my wife day and night, and I feel at ease to hand over the affairs of the world to the prime ministers and court officials to take care of..."

Li Longji was silent for a moment, and suddenly sighed regretfully: "I... shouldn't be addicted to beauty. If I could use more thoughts on political affairs, if I didn't know you, my wife, maybe An Lushan would not rebel, maybe the world is still peaceful, I was wrong!"

The more Yang Guifei heard it, the more shocked she became, and she felt as if she had a frost sword in her heart, which was cold and painful in an instant.

Li Longji's words sounded like self-reflection, but the meaning in the words was clearly that Yang Guifei caused him to mislead the government and state affairs. She was confused by him and became a foolish monarch, which led to An Lushan's rebellion and was destroyed in the prosperous era.

The couple, who are in love with Lin for many years, have been in trouble once, and they are so hurtful when they speak.

The two of them were silent for a long time. After a while, Yang Guifei asked in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty just said, "

After Li Longji finished speaking, he felt a little regretful, so he coughed twice in concealment, looked elsewhere, and said, "I don't mean that, I'm so worried. I finally have time today. I'll drink a few drinks with me, and I won't be able to summon singing and dancing anymore. The world is uneasy, and I can't bear to entertain people."

Yang Guifei also looked away, and two lines of tears slid silently on her beautiful cheeks.

After half a lifetime of traveling to the imperial family, the emperor was also a poor and happy man.
