Xiao Han, who has already entered the city, will naturally not know what happened at the city gate.
Today was his first day back from Qinling. He originally wanted to go home directly, but after thinking about it carefully, he still thought it would be better to go back to Chang'an first to explain everything.
The donkey cart pattered across the stone road of Chang'an Street. Although it had just experienced a near-miss invasion, Chang'an City was still as prosperous as before.
Vendors with baskets on their heads were dancing and selling their goods to passers-by.
The old man carrying a straw stick with candied haws on it was also patiently dealing with the group of children surrounding him.
Of course, more of them are passers-by who are in a hurry.
"Xiaodong, do you remember the first time we came to Chang'an?"
Seeing all these living beings and all kinds of life, Xiao Han, who was sitting in the car, suddenly remembered the time when he first entered the city, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.
"It's your first time entering the city? How could you forget that!" Xiaodong, who was driving the car in front, heard Xiao Han's words and also smiled and said: "Back then, when we were in Gaoshu, we defeated Xue Ju and were chased away like rabbits.
When we entered the city, I remember that at that time, Lord Marquis, you were still a soldier just like me."
"Haha, yes, I didn't expect that a few years have passed by like this!" Xiao Han sighed with a smile as he looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar [Biquge www.sbiquge.me] streets outside.
"That's not true!" Xiaodong swung his whip and cracked it in the air. While driving the lazy donkey to continue walking, he said: "But how young are you now, Mr. Marquis? Why do you sound so old-fashioned?
Already?"
"Young?" Xiao Han glanced at Xiaodong and smiled bitterly, thinking that if he added up his two lifetimes, he should be in his thirties now.
Xiaodong did not see Xiao Han's wry smile. Instead, what he just said brought back his memories, so he continued: "Remember that time, we ate together and slept in tents together. You often did wrong things and were taken away by Doctor Hua.
Kick..."
"Yes, that old man, kicking someone really hurts!"
Being reminded by Xiaodong, Xiao Han couldn't think of anything else but the days when he was kicked.
I remember that at that time, what he wanted to do most was to take off the old man's legs.
As a result, now, the old man's legs are still fine, but he is no longer the same as before, kicking his butt with his big foot whenever there is nothing wrong.
"Hey, Lord Marquis, you are also blessed with blessings." Xiaodong looked back at Xiao Han, with a narrow smile on his face: "You don't know, right? Divine Doctor Hua had so many apprentices, but he just kicked him
You alone, this is also the best intention for you. As a result, all the disciples were jealous because of this! Later, those people joined forces and wanted to stumble you secretly, but Old Man Hua found out and made a fuss.
He lost his temper and fired all those people."
"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Hearing this, Xiao Han couldn't help but be startled. If Xiaodong hadn't mentioned it, he really wouldn't have known about it.
Xiaodong nodded proudly in front and said: "That's right! It was I who secretly told those soldiers that these people wanted to deal with you, so they were driven away by Doctor Hua. As a result, when they were driven back to the army, they were driven away by those soldiers again.
Those who miss you will be punished severely."
"Oh? Why did I say that in the end, I was the only apprentice left by the old man..."
Xiao Han scratched his head, a little embarrassed. He also knew that he was really careless many times. If he didn't have a group of people around him to take care of him, he would have been unlucky by now!
"Also, when we were nailing horseshoes at our house, the fat cook was scaring the servants..."
Perhaps it was because he hadn't talked to anyone about this for a long time. Xiaodong became more and more excited as he talked. A long list of secrets that Xiao Han may or may not have known came out of his mouth, which made Xiao Han feel more and more emotional.
Over the years, I always felt that my journey in the Tang Dynasty had been extremely smooth, but I never thought that there were so many undercurrents surging beneath the surface.
In this way, we walked and chatted all the way, and soon the donkey cart arrived in front of Zhuque Gate.
The tall and majestic Suzaku Gate still stands there, but the two soldiers standing in front of the door are no longer full of blind thoughts.
"It was right here at the beginning."
After getting off the donkey cart, Xiao Han subconsciously looked back at the place where he was stationed. Xiao Han suddenly felt like he was in another world.
Back then, I had nothing but one person! How could I have imagined that I would now be in a high position with hordes of servants?
"Yes, it's right here." Xiaodong didn't understand the meaning of Xiao Han's words, and thought he simply remembered the time when he came to Chang'an, so he also agreed.
"What was I thinking at that time?"
Slowly closing his eyes, long-lost memories suddenly came to mind. Those memories that had been forgotten, or deliberately not mentioned again, once again clearly crossed his mind.
It was only at this moment that Xiao Han's soul, which had been gloomy for days, finally shined with a ray of sunshine.
"One day, people will live like what they once hated!"
After slowly chewing on these words, Xiao Han realized: It turns out that it is not Li Shimin, nor the Gong Gong in the court, but his own heart!
I remember that when I was here, the first determination I made was to help Datang become a world-famous existence.
At that time, he was very poor, but his heart was happy.
But after going through so many things, I have more, and I start to fight for power and gain, and worry about losing every little bit.
"It turns out that I have always been myself."
Smiling, laughing, tears flowed down.
This scene frightened Xiaodong so much that he quickly stepped forward and shook Xiao Han: "Master Hou? Master Hou, are you okay?"
"Haha, it's okay, I'm just thinking about a bastard."
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, Xiao Han took a deep breath, and his vain steps became firm again.
"Let's go into the palace!"
Chang'an City is very big, but it is also very small.
In less than a cup of tea, the news of Xiao Han's entry into the palace spread among high-ranking officials and dignitaries. As for the entrance of the palace, there were even more people poking their heads, waiting to see the palace's reaction.
"Hey, this matter, no matter how you say it, the old house is not authentic! If Xiao Han really can't swallow this breath... No, I have to go and have a look."
At Duke Huo's Mansion, Chai Shao, after hearing the news, murmured in a low voice, then hurriedly mounted his horse and rushed to the palace.
In other places, there are also many fast horses galloping towards the same goal. I don’t know if Xiao Han, who is in the palace, should be surprised or surprised when he sees that his simple action can attract so many people’s attention.
It's good to feel relieved.
They quickly arrived at the palace, showed their palace tooth badges, and Chai Shao, who was the first to arrive, hurried in.
As a result, before he reached the main hall, he heard a hearty laugh coming from inside.
