Fujimu said: "I have thought about it for a long time. I cannot learn the essence of a military strategist in Chang'an. I want to go to the Western Regions, to the real battlefield. I want to go with you to experience the lights of swords and shadows in the frontier desert."
Li Siye spread his hands: "Then why are you discussing with me? You are also a seventh-grade Qianniu. If you are transferred to Anxi, you can lead the brigade. We will be on the same level."
Fujimaki bowed and said: "This is exactly what I want to tell you. I don't want to be a brigade leader. We were a group when we were in the East Palace. I will work under you as a deputy brigade leader."
That’s fine, as long as the team is upright.”
"That's it? It's very simple. When the time comes, I will recommend you in front of the Protector."
After sending Teng Mu away, Li Siye suddenly thought of another person, that is Tian Zhen, who was doing business opposite Tonghua Square. This person's ambition was also to go to Anxi to make meritorious deeds. Fortunately, he had not been forgotten, otherwise he would have hated Li Siye for the rest of his life because of this thing.
.
He immediately ran to the vicinity of Jianfu Temple in Kaihuafang, and Tian Zhen indeed set up a scene there, waving the wooden stick in his hand and bowing left and right.
His martial arts skills were indeed good. The stick whizzed in his hands, and he struck left and right as fast as lightning and meteors, causing several onlookers to scream in surprise. Several guys with bigger hands and feet threw copper coins, but Tian Zhen picked them up lightly.
He hit the copper coins with a stick and flew up. Then a dozen copper coins fell down and landed on the stick.
This move is a real skill that comes with practice, and even Li Siye couldn't help but clap his hands. Tian Zhen took off the money from the stick, swung the stick to support his body and rushed forward, and then the stick shot out like an arrow and stopped at Li Siye's side.
tip of nose.
Li Siye smiled calmly, and Tian Zhen put away the stick.
Tian Zhen started to clean up the stall, and Li Siye said behind him: "I'm going to Anxi, and I want you to go with me."
"Do you want me to be a soldier for you, or a soldier?" Tian Zhen's generous lips revealed a sarcastic smile.
Li Siye didn't follow him in vain, he snorted and said: "As an official of the seventh grade, I can only serve as a brigade leader when I arrive at the Anxi Protectorate, so the most I can do is make you a captain. You
Go or not, there won’t be this shop after passing through this village.”
"Okay, I'll go."
Tian Zhen carried all the performing arts equipment on her back, holding the package in her hand and asked him: "When are you going?"
"I'll come find you then."
"Okay, if you still look for me here, I will continue to practice here for a few days."
After recruiting Tian Zhen, everything seemed to be well prepared. Li Siye thought about what else needed to be prepared, but to say nothing of it, there was something missing, and he even forgot to buy a water bag.
He went to the West Market again and bought a cowhide water bag. When he returned to Xinchangfang, he passed by Madam Xu's yard. Madam Xu was standing at the door holding the door knocker, with a bit of shyness and embarrassment on her face.
She was embarrassed, and Li Siye was even more embarrassed. Because of a sip of wine, her husband came to the house and almost fought with him. From now on, there is no need for the two to have anything to do with each other.
Li Siye lowered his head and was about to leave quickly, but Madam Xu suddenly said: "Li Lang, I heard that you are leaving Chang'an, is it because of me?"
"No, no," Li Siye said quickly, "You misunderstood. I have already prepared to go. It has nothing to do with you."
He said this, making Madam Xu's eyes even more resentful. Li Siye didn't care about her. He returned to the yard and went to check the green horse under the mulberry tree. The shoes on all four hooves were still intact and did not need to be replaced.
He returned to the room and continued to check the items in his backpack. He felt that everything was ready, but there seemed to be something missing. He waited for Li Heng to call him in this anxious mood.
Early the next morning, Prince Zhong's Mansion sent a eunuch to call him. Li Siye pretended to be relaxed and followed the eunuch to the Sixteenth Prince's House in Yongfufang.
This place is full of royal palaces, and the Li brothers are also neighbors, so it's quite lively.
Li Heng's Prince Zhong's Palace is located in a relatively remote location in the square. The gate of the palace is very grand, but it looks old, and even the walls are peeling off.
Li Siye followed the eunuch into the palace, and was immediately greeted by a eunuch with a thin face and sinister potential. He looked at him up and down like an animal, then he raised his hands and smiled and asked: "Is this Li Siye? We are already aware of it."
"May I ask who the internal prison officer is?"
"Our name is Li Jingzhong, and he is the chief chamberlain of Prince Zhong's palace."
Li Siye's eyelids twitched violently, and then he crossed his hands as if nothing had happened and followed him into the palace.
The interior of Prince Zhong's Mansion looks much more glamorous than the outside. From this, it can be judged that the wealth of the Prince's Mansion is not limited. The obsolescence of the gate and walls is just a trick of Prince Zhong, at least it will not be noticed because of the extravagance.
After walking through two or three gates, Li Siye saw three or five Western dancers dancing gracefully in a side hall. They seemed to be rehearsing a show. Three or five piano players were sitting cross-legged on the carpet, playing the pipa and flute.
The pipes and flutes produced no sound.
Li Siye felt strange. Is this a fake act? How could it be true if no one made a sound?
When he got closer, he realized that there was sound, but the sound of everyone playing was too quiet. It could only be heard when standing in front of him in the silence. The pipa player controlled the volume with the touch of his fingertips.
It's not easy to get to this point.
Seeing the strange look on Li Siye's face, Li Fuguo took the initiative to explain: "Our Highness likes Kucha dance, but he doesn't want outsiders to know about it. He always acts cautiously, so he ordered the musicians in the palace not to let the sound of their performances outside the wall."
Li Siye suddenly understood and nodded with his mouth wide open.
"Li Langjun please,"
He followed Li Fuguo to the main hall of the palace. He looked up and saw Li Heng kneeling in front of the screen, with his feet behind him, his posture upright, like a good student who listened carefully in class.
Sitting below and on the upper left is a military general, wearing a crimson robe with a missing crotch, and a belt with gold and jade, a total of twelve pieces. He must be the governor of Anxi, Laiyao.
Li Siye immediately bowed and crossed his hands in salute: "The former crown prince led a thousand oxen to Li Siye to see His Highness King Zhong, and to protect him."
Li Heng raised his hand and said to Lai Yao: "Come to protect the army, this is Li Siye, a strong man I have recommended to you. He is very skilled and talented. Is it okay to ask him to train with you in the Anxi army for a few years?"
Lai Yao had a long beard that reached his chest. He glanced at Li Siye up and down, but found nothing that stood out. Although he was tall and strong, there were many iron-tower-like strong men in the Anxi army, so it was not new.
He thought about it for a moment, and he had heard about King Zhong's temperament, and he was cautious by nature. He would not dare to do this kind of thing through the back door, unless it was... He seemed to have understood something. He couldn't help but look at Li Siye a little more.
, moving from the crown prince to Anxi is equivalent to being demoted, so he cannot be given too much care.
But after all, he has done things under the prince. The prince will be a saint in the future, so he cannot be too cool. If this person can make your majesty displeased, he must pay attention to him. It may not necessarily be because he has offended your majesty, but maybe the person in the palace.
My dear, this human relationship is so damn complicated.
He had secretly made a plan in his mind to give Li Siye a straight face on the surface, but secretly he would give him salary and salary according to the standard of a captain. The same goes for armor and weapons. This should be considered as a way to avoid offending both parties.
