People with missions disguise themselves as devils and roam around in hell.

Outside Jinyang City, nearly 100,000 rebels have gathered, and the city of Longxing in the Tang Dynasty has become devastated.

The rebels' military discipline was corrupted and a large number of rebels gathered outside the city. The common people and merchants in Jinyang City suffered a lot. Rebel soldiers came to the city in groups to have fun, robbed merchants, and molested women. It became commonplace, even though the generals

They repeatedly emphasized military discipline and made some attempts to restrain their generals, but the generals' restraint on their generals was always tepid, and many rebel generals even looted themselves.

The news that the Yan Kingdom was about to surrender to the Southern Dynasty had already spread out. Probably for this reason, the rebel soldiers lost all scruples and let themselves go completely. They planned to make a fortune for themselves before surrendering to the imperial court. After surrendering in the future, if the army

If the official position has not changed, then they will reluctantly stay and continue to work for the court. If the court does not use them or even be wary of them, then they will use the looted money to return to their hometowns to buy land for retirement.

Most of the rebel soldiers thought this way, so Jinyang City suffered.

Just a few days after the gathering, the city of Jinyang was in a state of chaos. Countless people were forced to flee Jinyang with their families. Some families were so prosperous that they could not leave because their doors were closed, or they took the initiative to pay money to the rebels to ensure their safety.

Inside the Prime Minister Zuo's Mansion.

Feng Yu and Li Bai were having a drink in the side courtyard.

Li Bai's feet were bare, his hair was disheveled, his cheeks were red, and he was slightly tipsy.

Feng Yu also drank a lot, but he was always sober, and his eyes were still as clear as a clear spring, with determination and forbearance in his deep eyes.

"Brother Feng Xian, it's not fun to drink with you all the time." Li Bai snorted dissatisfied: "The same goes for Gu Qing. He's even more cheating than you are. Could it be that you Shiqiao villagers learned how to drink from a master?"

Feng Yu chuckled and said, "I learned this from Brother Gu. When it comes to drinking, you just have to enjoy yourself. No matter how much you drink, it won't prove anything. A heavy drinker is not a strength worth showing off."

Li Bai was dissatisfied and said: "Where did you learn to be so old-fashioned at such a young age? Did you learn it from Gu Qing?"

"Yes, when Brother Gu was still in Shiqiao Village, every move he made was a role model for us young people, and we all imitated him unknowingly."

Li Bai suddenly became depressed and sighed: "You are so young, but you endure the humiliation and bear the burden of doing such a big thing. When I return to the Tang Dynasty in the future, Gu Qing will definitely put you in high regard, and promotion and title are inevitable. Unfortunately, I am already over fifty years old."

, but I am still a white body. In comparison, my age has been lived in vain."

Feng Yu was silent for a moment and said: "If Master Taibai can help me this time, Brother Gu will not be stingy with his official title when he returns to the Tang Dynasty."

Li Bai raised his head and drank a glass of wine, and said: "Whether I can fulfill my lifelong ambition in this life depends on this. If I still can't find a promotion for myself, I will retire to the mountains and forests and live in a house until I grow old."

Feng Yu said with a smile: "Come on, the army is about to leave. After crossing the Yellow River south, Taibai layman will naturally have the opportunity to make great contributions to the court."

Li Bai's pupils shrank and he said softly: "When will we do it?"

"The time of crossing south."

"Just kill Shi Siming?"

"If Shi Siming dies, the rebels will be leaderless. Brother Gu can annihilate them all."

Li Bai pondered for a long time and said: "The rebels surrendered to the court, why does Gu Qing still attack the rebels?"

Feng Yu smiled sarcastically and said: "Shi Siming has the heart of a wolf, how can he be willing to surrender? Brother Gu judged that it was expedient for this person to surrender, and he would definitely rebel again if he got the chance in the future. The people of the Tang Dynasty could not afford this.

Repeatedly, annihilating this rebel army will protect the Tang Dynasty from war for a hundred years, so the rebels cannot stay."

Li Bai thought for a moment and said: "I am not as good as Gu Qing in handling major military and state affairs, so just listen to him. After the rebels set off, I will be with you all the time. If I need to take action, I will take action with just a look."

Shi Siming."

Feng Yu tipped his cup to him and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Master Taibai. There are many personal guards around Shi Siming, and they all have extraordinary skills. If Master Taibai wants to kill Shi Siming, he will have to take a lot of risks."

Li Bai smiled proudly and said: "The world only knows that my poetic talent is the best in the world, but they don't know that my swordsmanship is even better than my poetry. I have encountered countless enemies in my life, and I have never been defeated. Taking the head of an admiral out of thousands of people is like picking something out of a bag."

Feng Yu bowed his head and bowed: "In that case, I'll leave everything to Master Taibai."

Li Bai raised his chopsticks and tapped the cup and saucer, chanting: "Even if a hero's bones are fragrant to death, he will not be ashamed of the world's heroes. Who can write your Excellency, the White-headed Taixuan Sutra..."

After reciting the poem, Li Bai suddenly swayed and lay down directly in the entrance hall, feeling drunk.

Feng Yu looked at Li Bai who was very drunk, with a bit of a smile in his eyes. He took a stall and gently placed it on Li Bai's body, then stood up and left.

Walking back to his bedroom, Li Jianjiu was studying nvhong. His hands, which were accustomed to holding swords, looked particularly clumsy when using embroidery needles. His fingers had been pricked in several places by the needles.

Feng Yu hurriedly stepped forward, held her hand distressedly, threw the unfinished Nvhong aside, and said: "Why do you have to be a Nvhong yourself? Don't do things you don't know how to do. Don't embarrass yourself."

Li Jianjiu bit his lower lip and said softly: "In this life... I can't just play swordsmanship. When I get married in the future, I will eventually have to sew clothes and trousers for my husband, wash my hands and make soup, otherwise I will be rejected by my husband...

"

Feng Yu blinked and said, "Isn't your husband me? When did I ever say I despise you?"

Li Jianjiu's face turned red, he turned his head and looked away, humming shyly: "Who said my husband is you? Could it be that no one in the world can marry me except you?"

Feng Yu suddenly turned cold and said: "Yes, no one in the world dares to marry you except me. I will kill anyone who dares to marry you. You, Li Jianjiu, can only be my woman."

The unquestionable dominance made Li Jianjiu's heart filled with sweetness, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.

"I……"

Feng Yu took advantage of the situation and held her hand, and said softly: "Ajiu, my wife just needs to keep her original appearance, and there is no need to force herself to cater to me. Even now that we have known each other, I still feel that your sword dancing style is the best."

charming."

Li Jianjiu wanted to laugh, lowered his head and whispered: "If I can only dance a sword, who will sew clothes for you and cook for you in the future?"

"Those are the servants' business. You are the mistress, so of course you only do what a mistress should do. In this life, you are only allowed to dance the sword for me."

Li Jianjiu rolled his eyes at him and said angrily: "I have never seen such a domineering person like you..."

He complained on his lips, but in fact he had tacitly agreed to dance swordsmanship for Feng Yu alone in this life.

"You smell so much of alcohol, go take a shower quickly, I'll prepare hot water for you..." Li Jianjiu said again: "What did you and Li Bai talk about?"

Feng Yu whispered: "The army is about to move out, and I want to work together with Taibai layman to kill Shi Siming."

Li Jianjiu was startled, then bit his lower lip and said, "That Li Bai has been drinking and drunk all day long, and his speech is confused and confused. Are you sure he can do this?"

Feng Yu nodded: "Taibai's drinking is just an appearance. I have observed that his hands are still very steady. Moreover, Brother Gu also said back then that among swordsmen in the world, Pei Min can be called a swordsman, and his swordsmanship is the best in the world. Li Bai

But secondly, there was a gangster seeking revenge on Brother Gu in Shiqiao Village, and Li Bai showed off his swordsmanship that night. He was truly amazing and admirable, so I believe him."

Li Jianjiu said dissatisfiedly: "Nonsense, my master Li Twelve Niang is the second best in the world."

Feng Yu laughed and said: "Okay, Aunt Li is second and Li Bai is third."

Li Jianjiu showed a hint of worry again and said: "To assassinate Shi Siming in the midst of thousands of troops, you... must be careful. If you are not careful, you will die. For me, you must live."

"We will all live well. Once things are over here, when we return to Chang'an, we will have no more troubles in our lives and live in peace."

…………

The army was about to leave, and An Qingxu showed great reluctance in the palace in Jinyang.

Although his power has now been eclipsed by Shi Siming, he still has the title of emperor and enjoys the treatment of an emperor.

He lives in a palace, eats expensive delicacies, wears bright yellow dragon robes, and travels as a guard of honor for the emperor. However, once he surrenders to the Tang Dynasty, all his benefits and status will be lost. At best, An Qingxu will only be granted the title of Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

A small marquis, if you give him a city, he might even be imprisoned by supervision.

The huge difference in treatment really made An Qingxu reluctant in every possible way, but now that the power inside and outside was in the hands of Shi Siming, An Qingxu had no room to object to what Shi Siming decided.

The puppet emperor is so helpless. While enjoying the rich food and clothing, he also has to endure the incomprehensible injustice to ordinary people.

Most of the puppet people are cowardly. An Qingxu is originally a playboy with no ambition and mediocrity. The greatest advantage of this kind of person is that he knows how to comfort himself. No matter what situation he is in, as long as he does not have the courage to resist, he will constantly give himself psychological trouble.

Build, convince yourself to adapt to your current situation.

An Qingxu quickly convinced himself.

In fact, being a marquis is not bad. At least you will have enough food and clothing, and at least you can live in peace until the end of your life. Even if the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty supervises you, you will definitely receive no less treatment, including fine wine, food, and beauties.

Anyway, when you are an emperor, you only ask for these few things, and when you are a Taiping Marquis, you only ask for these few things, so isn't it the same for everything?

As long as there are plenty of wine, food, and beauties, being locked up and monitored is worth it.

After adjusting his psychology, An Qingxu began to adapt to the life of being reduced to a captive marquis.

It would be great if the soldiers under his command could gain some strength and defeat the Tang army. The emperor could continue to be the emperor, but unfortunately... he really can't defeat him. If he continues to fight against the Tang army, the end will only become more and more miserable.

Even if you surrender, at least you can save your life.

So An Qingxu returned to his dandy manner and summoned the beauties in the palace to serve him. His days as emperor were numbered and he had to race against time to enjoy himself.

A eunuch walked in outside the palace. He was the eunuch of the Tang Dynasty who stayed at the palace after the capture of Jinyang City. As soon as the rebels entered the palace, the eunuchs knelt down and surrendered, and immediately changed to a new master.

The old eunuch walked into the hall on tiptoe and asked An Qingxu for instructions with a flattering smile. General Shi asked to see him.

A trace of disgust flashed in An Qingxu's eyes, but he still declared lazily.

Shi Siming entered the palace with a sword hanging on his waist. He did not stop when he walked outside the palace door. When he entered the palace, he did not take off his sword and did not take off his shoes. He just walked in with a swagger, showing the domineering appearance of a powerful official.

An Qingxu did not dare to accuse him of disrespecting his courtesy, and turned a blind eye to Shi Siming's incomprehensible behavior of not removing his sword from his shoes. Instead, he smiled and greeted Shi Siming extraordinarily intimately.

Shi Siming seemed a little serious today. From the moment he entered the palace until he walked to An Qingxu, his expression never smiled, and there was even a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

"General Shi today... uh, why are you so serious? Did something happen?" An Qingxu asked uneasily.

Shi Siming sneered and said: "Your Majesty has been the emperor these days, and he must have enjoyed the wealth and wealth in the world. Are you happy when you are the emperor?"

An Qingxu frowned. Although Shi Siming's words and deeds in front of him were very rude in the past, today they seemed to be even more excessive.

"Why did General Shi say this?" An Qingxu said while holding back his anger.

Shi Siming said calmly: "I have no other intention, but the imperial edict from the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty has come. The imperial edict says that there can only be one emperor in the world. Anyone who usurps the throne is a thief. The imperial edict requires me to eliminate the thief first and then surrender."
To be continued...
