Chapter 86: Enlightenment has a body to die Chapter 2
After hearing this, Dancing Horse was stunned.
The eldest son of the Li family is Li Jiancheng, the third son is Li Yuanji, and the fifth son is Li Zhiyun. Of course this dancing horse knows.
The strange thing is that this Li Zhiyun has been in Zizhi Tongjian, and he mentioned this in the last paragraph of the Seventh Sui Dynasty: [Li Jiancheng, Li Yuanji abandoned his younger brother Zhiyun in Hedong, and the officials took Zhiyun and sent him to Chang'an to kill him.
Of】.
Therefore, Li Zhiyun in history did not come to Jinyang at all, but was caught in Hedong and lost his head in Chang'an.
"Wu Lang?" Wu Ma rubbed his ears, "Li Zhiyun?"
Liu Wenjing said: "Does Mr. Wu Lang know that the name of Wu Lang of the Li family is Li Zhiyun? He is just not a bastard, and few people mention it."
"Did Wulang escape with Dalang and the others?"
"That's not—"
Liu Wenjing said: "From the previous letters, it can be seen that Wulang was arrested by the officials in Hedong before. Later, for some reason, he not only escaped and ascended to heaven, but also seemed to have become an awakened disciple. The reason why Dalang and his party were able to spread the news in the city
, relying on Wulang’s spiritual eagle to send messages.”
This is very interesting. Dancing Horse asked: "Where is the letter? Let me take a look."
I saw the letter read like this——
"Aye:
The slaves and others set out from Hedong, and Yuanji, Chai Shao, and Zhiyun were all there. The journey was quite smooth, and they arrived outside the city on Bingyin day and now hid in Yingshan.
I am very happy to hear that Ayemo has won a great victory in his first battle with the Turks. He attacked at night with fire, the captives were rescued, and the enemy was killed. I am very happy. Now that I have a good general and a clever plan, I hope that Ayemo will not delay the important event and prepare for the army. I think it will be possible.
One call and a hundred responses.
Turks frequently patrolled the mountains outside the city, and the slaves did not dare to enter the city lightly. Please ask Aye to send his disciples to the mountains to help. If there is any difficulty, you can wait until the Turks army retreats. After a long separation, you will realize your kindness and think deeply about it.
.
Now I will attach it to where I am hiding..."
The signature is Li Jiancheng. The hiding place mentioned is a wooden house in Yingshan, northwest of Jinyang City.
Wu Ma took the letter and read it several times.
Liu Wenjing said that this letter was carried by a spiritual eagle and went straight to Tang Gong's mansion last night. Although Tang Gong received the letter, he was anxious, but he didn't want to disturb his subordinates in the middle of the night, so he waited until dawn before calling Liu Wenjing over for discussion.
, and asked him whether it would be better to leave the city as soon as possible to bring the person back, or let Dalang and the others find a hiding place to hide.
Liu Wenjing was rushing to compete with Pei Ji for the ranking. She was eager to make a contribution, so of course she took the initiative to ask for help. She wanted to take a group of people from Datang Tower out of the city as soon as possible to meet him. Tang Gong repeatedly told him that the Turks outside the city were patrolling very closely, so he must be cautious.
, act safely and protect yourself. If you are in trouble, you may as well retreat to the city and consider the long term.
Liu Wenjing smiled and said: "With that [hidden side of the cassock], it's not easy to bring these gentlemen back."
After coming out of Mr. Tang's side, Liu Wenjing took Yuwen Jianxue and went straight to Wu Ma to explain the cause and effect of the incident.
Liu Wenjing said: "The matter of picking someone up is a small matter, but it is also a big one. Several of the princes are close relatives of Mr. Tang, especially the eldest son and the third man. They are the heart of Mr. Tang. If we can bring them back safely, we will
The position of the Tang Pagoda in Duke Tang's heart will be even better. It is much better than that of Pei Ji who spends all his time scheming to flatter and give away women."
Because Liu Wenjing was so happy to generously let go of the Qingxia Light Ball in the Tang Pagoda, Wu Ma naturally agreed.
Also considering that [The Dark Side of the Kasaya] was only useful on moonlit nights, the three of them discussed it for a while and then dispersed, agreeing to meet at the gate of the East City in the evening to go out of the city to pick up people. After parting, Dancing Horse went first.
Tang Gongfu and Li Yuan asked for the same thing.
In the evening, the hoopoe came unexpectedly. Moreover, he was the first one to arrive. A man was squatting in the city gate hole, picking at the cracks in the bricks on the city wall.
When he saw Liu Wenjing, he bowed respectfully and said: "Since it is a collective action in the Tang Tower, and my subordinates are part of it, of course they cannot be behind others."
Liu Wenjing said: "How did you know?"
The hoopoe was also bright, "Pei Gong told me."
"You can come whenever you want. You don't have to let Palace Supervisor Pei say that I'm taking revenge for personal gain. However, it's dangerous to go here. If you're wrong..."
"Before I came down to the Tang Pagoda, I made an agreement with Mr. Pei that since I enter the Pagoda voluntarily, I have to bear the risks. I will go there myself if I live or die."
"Then let's go."
…
The four people waited until the moon appeared, put on the "dark side of the cassock", rode out of the city, and headed towards Yingshan.
Wu Ma took the lead and suddenly said halfway: "Something's not quite right."
Yuwen Jianxue said: "What?"
"Have you noticed that there are a lot fewer Turkic patrol teams today?"
"It's been a break for the past two days, so it wouldn't be surprising if there were less."
"No, I looked in another direction, and there were horse hooves from time to time. Our place is too clean."
Dai Sheng understood first, "Wu Langjun means that the Turks deliberately led us to Yingshan?"
Wu Ma was not sure for the time being, so he simply led everyone to walk in the direction of Yingshan. When he was about to approach Yingshan, he did not go to the place written in Li Jiancheng's letter, but took a detour and entered Yingshan from the other end.
The mountains are several miles apart.
"Wu Langjun," Yu Wen Jianxue took out the letter and read it again, "It seems we got sidetracked?"
Then he pointed to the address written by Li Jiancheng on the letter, then looked up and looked around.
"Look, Dalang asked us to enter Yingshan through the entrance of Huangxing Village, but you...you have to go to Taihang Mountain instead."
Hoopoe said, "Wu Langjun is taking us on a detour just to be on the safe side."
There was no explanation for the dancing horse, and the horse immediately entered the mountain.
After entering the mountain, we walked in a big circle. It took me no idea how long it took to get close to the wooden house mentioned in Li Jiancheng's letter, but we climbed up a short mountain. The wooden house was not far from the foot of the short mountain, with a light on.
The night was silent all around.
"That's not right," Hoopoe said, looking at the cabin. "Something's not quite right."
Yuwen Jianxue said: "How?"
The hoopoe said: "If they are worried about being discovered by Turks on patrol, Dalang and the others should not keep the lights on."
Yuwen Jianxue said: "This place is far away from the Turkic camp, and it is not a dangerous place. The Turks will not come here to patrol."
Wu Ma said, "It's hard to say."
With that said, he asked Yuwen Jianxue to take out the letter brought by Ling Ying and take a look at it again.
After the letter paper was spread on the ground, Wu Ma took out another letter from his arms and placed it next to it.
"What's this?"
"The letter Dalang and the others sent earlier... I got it from Duke Tang."
The two letters were placed side by side, and the four of them stood around looking at them for a long time. Wu Ma seemed to figure out some clues from them, and kept nodding.
After all, it was Liu Wenjing who was the most impatient. She pulled the sleeve of the dancing horse and asked:
"If you have anything to say, please tell me quickly, Dalang and the others are still waiting."
Wu Ma reached out and tapped a few places on the letter paper.
As if his acupoints had been opened a few times by him, Hoopoe suddenly raised his head and said:
"Mr. Liu, I probably saw something."
Liu Wenjing and Yuwen Jianxue quickly joined in.
The hoopoe said, "Take a look. What's the difference between these two letters?"
The two pieces of paper were placed side by side. Comparing them, Liu Wenjing had already noticed the problem, "The previous letters were neater than the latest one."
Yuwen Jianxue said: "Probably when I wrote the previous letters, a few people were still on the way to Jinyang. They stayed at the inn for the night and were calm and tidy. Now that we have arrived outside Jinyang City, we are surrounded by Turkic soldiers.
, the war was in turmoil, so it’s not surprising that the writing was sloppy.”
"wrong,"
Hoopoe pointed at a few places on the second letter, "Look at these words."
Yuwen Jianxue followed the hoopoe's gaze and saw that it meant "slave, already, prisoner" or something like that.
"On this second letter, the words on the side are very neat,"
The hoopoe said: "There are only these words. Some are slightly tilted to the left, some are slightly tilted to the right, some are facing up, and some are facing down. Although the deviation is not large, there is one in the east and one in the west.
Spread throughout the letter, the whole letter looks a bit sloppy.”
Liu Wenjing said: "Hoe Sheng is right. There must be something wrong with these stray characters. We might as well pick them all out and have a look."
He, Yuwen Jianxue, and Hoopoe picked the words together, one pressed them with his hands, and the other wrote down the words. The last words picked out were arranged in the order in the letter:
"The slaves have been captured and killed. I have a plan. I hope Ayemo will delay the important event and raise an army to kill him."
Yuwen Jianxue and Wu Ma asked for an empty piece of paper, wrote these words on it, and read slowly:
"The slaves have been captured, and there is a plan to kill them. I hope Ayemo will delay the important event and raise an army to kill them——
This is completely different from liberal arts."
"It's not that simple,"
Liu Wenjing took the paper and looked at it carefully.
"If the Tang family wanted to convey information through these code words, then naturally he would have encountered a very troublesome situation, so that he had to separate what he wanted to say into sentences. In this way, the words in these words would be
It is inevitable that the order will be disrupted——
We might as well rearrange the order."
The three people looked at about twenty words, and in turn, finally came up with a coherent sentence——
That is:
"The slaves have fallen into the trap and have been captured. I hope that Ayemo will delay the important event of raising the army."
