Chapter 210 News from Chang'an

He didn't expect that a gadget he made accidentally would have a trend of popularity. If this thing became popular in the Tang Dynasty and entered the homes of ordinary people, then would the traditional women's strapless beauties disappear?

This is a simpler, more practical and more comfortable "high-tech alternative" with advanced concepts. Zhang Xuan was a little ridiculous and terrifying. Unexpectedly, what she really changed this era was actually such a small object.

Hua Nuer seemed to realize that Zhang Xuan's eyes were on those shameful objects. She was very anxious and grabbed the "three-point" and hid it in her arms, still carrying Zhang Xuan on her back, feeling nervous.

She was worried that Zhang Xuan would want her body, but once Zhang Xuan had that kind of thought, she was afraid that she would not be able to help but burst out completely.

Gritting her teeth and enduring some of Zhang Xuan’s occasional teasing and staying by Zhang Xuan as a personal maid is the limit she can bear now.

Ahem!

Zhang Xuan slowly stood up and left the tent to go out for convenience.

In fact, there is a toilet in the tent, but it is not convenient for Zhang Xuanru to come out in front of Hua Nuer.

The rainy night is heavy, and the drizzle is still falling. To be honest, this kind of spring rain is quite awesome, and it is better to go on a rush. It is so delicate and careless, like a decoy. The poet may still have poetic and picturesque feelings, but for ordinary Tang soldiers, this will not bring any good mood, it is a kind of suffering.

Zhang Xuan found a corner, solved the problem quickly, and then slowly slipped back. However, he did not go back, but instead lit up the candles in Shuaizhangzhengtang. After reading a book, he went to the back to go to bed.

Only when he slept, Hua Nuer curled up at his feet and slept with his clothes.

That night passed like this.

Zhang Xuan never thought about something happening to Hua Nuer, and Hua Nuer seemed even more reluctant. Letting Hua Nuer stay by her side to serve her closely was mainly because Zhang Xuan considered safety hazards.

After all, he has grown to a height that is enough to threaten the interests of some people.

Hua Nuer obviously did not have the habit of serving others and was awakened. Zhang Xuan, the master, still couldn't get up. However, Zhang Xuan didn't care about anything and went to wash himself. Hua Nuer was awakened, rubbed her sleepy eyes, and stood up embarrassedly to help Zhang Xuan wash.

Zhang Xuan waved her hand and signaled her not to come over.

After cleaning up personal hygiene, Zhang Xuan turned around and looked at Hua Nuer and smiled indifferently, "You are not very competent and lack training... When we settle down in Lingzhou, you must learn how to serve your master."

Hua Nuer's smile froze, and then she heard Zhang Xuan laugh out loud, and then walked out.

...

...

The loud and sob military horns spread throughout the camp.

Feng Changqing rode his horse and rolled over and dismounted in front of the commander's tent. He said in a deep voice to the guards, "Go and report to the Grand Commander quickly, Feng asked for a meeting!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Xuan lifted the curtain and walked out, looked at Feng Changqing, and smiled softly, "Sir Feng, the rain has not stopped yet, so it is inconvenient to march. In my opinion, I will take a break for the time being today. Let's talk about it when the rain stops."

Feng Changqing nodded, and he knew that Zhang Xuan was deliberately delaying time and refused to let the army march in the rain, so he was not surprised.

This is when he came to find Zhang Xuan, but not for the purpose of marching.

After hesitating for a while, Feng Changqing lay down in Zhang Xuan's ear and whispered a few words. Zhang Xuan frowned, but was speechless as he heard this.

News from Chang'an said that the second day after Zhang Xuan led his army to leave Chang'an, that is, yesterday, the crown prince Li Heng, together with the civil and military ministers of the court, led his army to escort the old emperor Li Longji to a different palace in Mount Li, saying that he would set up an altar for the old emperor on Mount Li and summon the great men from all over the world to pray for blessings and sacrifice to the old emperor.

The momentum was huge, shocking the entire Chang'an City.

What does Li Heng want to do? Zhang Xuan thought about it. The old emperor was a typical stroke paralysis aphasia. Judging from the current situation, as long as the rest and treatment is properly, it will not endanger life. However, it is impossible to recover.

Besides, does Li Heng really hope that the old emperor will recover?

Zhang Xuan smiled coldly in her heart, thinking that this matter was really weird.

Could it be that Li Heng couldn't wait and wanted to take the risk and take a ruthless move? Zhang Xuan suddenly felt shocked and his face changed.

Whether for the Tang Dynasty or Zhang Xuan's personal development, the old emperor was better than dead. Although the old emperor was paralyzed on the bed, it was an invisible deterrence for the vassal states in the world, especially for An Lushan. But if the old emperor died, An Lushan's ambition would definitely expand instantly, causing his rebellion to be greatly advanced.

If Li Heng ascended the throne early, if he could not suppress the situation, it would inevitably cause chaos in the court. This is what Zhang Xuan was most worried about.

Zhang Xuan thought that An Lushan’s rebellion was a double-edged sword, and it was probably an opportunity to make good use of it. But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, to deal with it well. Before Zhang Xuan was fully prepared, the Anshi Rebellion broke out early, which was almost a disaster.

Zhang Xuan pondered and walked wildly, completely forgetting that there was still continuous drizzle floating in the sky.

Feng Changqing quickly waved his hand to signal the soldiers to come over with an oil paper umbrella. At this time, he found that Hua Nuer, wearing a men's blue shirt, followed lightly, and instantly opened a oil paper umbrella to cover the rain for Zhang Xuan.

Feng Changqing was stunned and knew that Hua Nuer was the maid and guard beside Zhang Xuan. In fact, he was the female Taoist nun and assassin who was very good at swordsmanship that day. When he captured Hua Nuer's master and disciple, Feng Changqing was present. Of course, not many people knew about this, only the senior officials around Zhang Xuan. Ordinary soldiers only knew that there was a very powerful female hero who was a bodyguard by Zhang Xuan.

Feng Changqing calmed down and chased after him.

Zhang Xuan frowned and walked in the rain. Without even looking at Hua Nuer, she waved her hand, "Don't hide the rain, go back."

Hua Nuer was secretly embarrassed and annoyed, thinking that my mother had a bad habit of flattery... If you want to get wet in the rain, just get wet, I won’t serve you yet.

Hua Nuer put away her umbrella with a dark face and turned around and left.

Feng Changqing came over.

Zhang Xuan stopped, looked at Feng Changqing and lowered his voice, "Mr. Feng, what do you think about this?"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince of the Superintendent prays for His Majesty, and there is no doubt that his Majesty has a filial piety. However, the most taboo thing about His Majesty's stroke is to change the water and soil to avoid aggravating the condition... The Grand Governor, the subordinate, thought that, perhaps, Your Majesty will live in another palace in Mount Li in the future." Feng Changqing hesitated for a long time before he said a few words in a concealment and raised his own opinion in a vague way.

Zhang Xuan's eyes lit up.

What Feng Changqing said was very true. Li Heng might not be cruel to kill his father and king, but he would definitely place the old emperor in a different palace in Mount Li on the excuse, gradually fading out of the sight of the Tang Dynasty court.

Who gave Li Heng the idea? Yang Guozhong, Chen Xilie, or Chen Xuanli?

Zhang Xuan shook his head and smiled at Feng Changqing, "Mr. Feng, write a memorial in the name of the Longshuo Grand Governor's Office and my official, and send someone to another palace in Mount Li. He said that our Longshuo army wishes His Majesty the Emperor to recover soon!"

"Send people to rush to Mount Li."

"Yes. The subordinates obeyed the order." Feng Changqing nodded his head and left.

Zhang Xuan was very clear about the intention. The purpose of doing this was nothing more than to imply Li Heng in disguise. I knew clearly what you wanted to do. Although I left Chang'an, I still knew the situation in Chang'an.

Of course, for Zhang Xuan, suggesting Li Heng is secondary, mainly to suggesting those people around Li Heng. Especially those who have ulterior motives about Zhang Xuan, such as Chen Xuanli.

******************************************

Fanyang. In Youzhou Prefecture, Dongping County Prince's Mansion in Anlushan.

Compared with the spring rain in this small town outside Yongzhou City, the sun is shining brightly, the weather is clear, and the temperature rises rapidly.

An Lushan sat upright on the lobby, with his confidant generals and civil servants on both sides.

He was surrounded by powerful generals and had many civil officials and advisers. This was due to his years of envelopment and management, and it was not a one-day achievement.

Zhang Xuan's strong rise, going to Longshuo to command troops, would surely threaten Fan Yang's rear, aroused An Lushan's great fear.

An Qingxu stood up and bowed, "Father, my son received a letter from Fei Ge, and Zhang Xuan actually detoured eastward, and came to my three towns of Fanyang with great momentum. This was clearly a deliberate provocation and extremely arrogant!"

An Qingxu felt even more ashamed and angry when he thought of several times falling into Zhang Xuan's hands. He became more and more excited when he spoke, "Father, such a yellow-haired child, who repeatedly despises his father's power, is really despised! In the eyes of his son... it is better than--"

An Qingxu waved his hand fiercely and made a beheading posture.

An Lushan frowned and scolded in a deep voice, "You know how to fight and kill, but you don't know how to use your brain. The last time you were in Chang'an, you made such a big noise for me, almost putting me in a place of doom... Zhang Xuan controls heavy troops and is also an important official of the court. How do you kill me? If you want to kill me?"

"Sending people to assassinate is a very stupid act. Think about the lesson you learned last time."

An Lushan scolded him in front of the generals and a group of strategists. An Qingxu's face turned red, but he did not dare to refute.

An Lushan's military advisor Yu Fei glanced at An Qingxu who was embarrassed and chuckled and interrupted, "Prince, Yu thinks that the little prince's suggestion makes sense."

"Zhang Xuan is brave, knowledgeable and strategic. If he lets this person take charge of the troops in Longshuo, in time, it will become a big trouble for me Fan Yang. In the future, the prince raised his troops, and Zhang Xuan will collude with Shuhan, Hexi Ge, Yang Qi from the Western Regions and Cheng Qianli from Beiting. Three armies attacked from behind, and our army will inevitably have to bear huge pressure."

"So, it is better to send an assassin to assassinate Zhang Xuan, kill this person, and then make it happen once and for all. This is the best strategy."

An Lushan shook his head, "No! Zhang Xuan was assassinated, everyone in the world knew that it was my An Lushan who was attacked. At this time, our army was not ready yet. If the court threatened, we would not fail to set off in a hurry."
