Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 972: Liangshan

Views:

Chang'an City, or the only car in the Tang Dynasty or even the whole world, was like a wild horse, galloping away from the imperial city. On the bustling streets of Chang'an, whether they were carriages, sedan chairs or pedestrians, they all gave way to each other. Attention ceremony.

Huniu has long been accustomed to sitting in the passenger seat, and then stretches her huge tiger head out of the window to blow the wind, or stares at the scenery and pedestrians along the road expressionlessly.

The official road to Xianyang, or the routes starting from Chang'an and radiating in all directions, have long been turned into asphalt pavements. Although the quality is much worse than the asphalt pavements of later generations, fortunately, they can now really carry heavy loads. There are no carriages that can crush the road, so the flat road made Li Hong press the accelerator to the bottom.

Huniu was so excited that she roared out the window from time to time. This roar was faster than the car's horn, causing pedestrians on the road to get out of the way.

When he was about to reach the border of Xianyang, Li Hong finally drove his only car and passed the carriage convoy of Li Lingyue, Shangguan Wan'er and Bai Chun.

Huniu seemed to know her, or maybe in her opinion, whenever she saw a long motorcade, it must be a royal motorcade, so she stretched her huge tiger head out of the window and roared at the long carriage motorcade. .

So before Li Hong honked the horn, the long motorcade quickly moved to the roadside, leaving the spacious road to Li Hong and Huniu who were speeding by.

Li Lingyue's first reaction when she heard the roar of the tiger was to immediately lie down at the window of the carriage, and then she saw the black iron shell whizzing past her eyes.

"It's over. The emperor brother still got the better of him. If he was the first to complain in front of the queen, let alone me, even you two would be reprimanded by the queen." Li Lingyue watched without stopping and refused to follow him. Li Hong Juechen left after saying hello to the two imperial concubines, and said with some worry.

"If it hadn't been for you, things like today would have happened. I didn't catch you for a while, and you announced what happened in Prince Pu's Mansion. You are just looking for the blame." Shangguan Wan'er was helpless. In the whole world, Your Majesty is not afraid of heaven or earth, but he is only afraid of his mother.

Now that the Queen Mother is old, His Majesty does not dare to make the Queen Mother angry, but Li Lingyue has been defrauded by him several times, and she has always hoped to make up for the defrauded money from the sales of "Fang Jian Tian Xia", so this The selling point and sales volume of "Fang Jian Tian Xia" have become the most important things for Li Lingyue.

For the sake of "Fang Jian Tian Xia" and the money she lost, Li Lingyue could ignore it and confront Li Hong. Although she has never won the two of them in several confrontations, even so, she is still willing to fight with him. Li Hong fought back and forth, hoping to defeat Ye Qing once.

The car did not stop in Xianyang City. Because Li Lingyue and Shangguan Wan'er were coming, the Xianyang County Magistrate at the gate of the city was already waiting with a crowd. Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was about to arrive, followed Concubine Guan Huang and Miss Bai Chun.

So when a black monster appeared in their sight, they all looked at the black monster speeding towards them with shocked expressions and hurriedly evaded to both sides.

Li Hong did not get out of the car, but opened the window and pointed at the Xianyang County Magistrate, the only one who knew him. After all, because of Wu Mei's relationship in Liangshan in recent years, among the county magistrates, he had the most dealings with the royal family. The fastest-promoted local official was the magistrate of Xianyang County.

In the past ten years, four county magistrates have risen to prominence from here and been promoted by the imperial court. So when the magistrate saw His Majesty's face appearing on the side of the black monster, he was somewhat startled.

But after seeing Li Hong waving to him, he immediately ran over to salute.

"The princess and the imperial concubine are right behind them. They will arrive soon. Remember to be polite and don't neglect them. Although you have not been the magistrate of Xianyang County for a long time, I believe in your ability, so you will definitely be able to Live up to my expectations." Li Hong said to the Xianyang County Magistrate who was hunched over the car window, and then waved his hand to indicate that he should continue to wait and that he had to leave first.

Looking at the black iron shell that looked like a monster, it let out a buzzing roar and then buzzed away. Only then did the Xianyang County Magistrate begin to come to his senses. Your Majesty is indeed a heavenly being.

Not far from Xianyang, you can see the two not too high Liangshan Mountains. And in the distance behind Liangshan Mountains, the rolling Qinling Mountains are like a giant dragon lying quietly in the distance. Looking at it, there seems to be a hint of majesty and vicissitudes of heroism.

Even a car can only walk to the foot of the mountain, so as soon as it stopped at the foot of the mountain, dozens of Jinwu guards poured out from both sides, and there were still Jinwu guards lying in wait in the hidden places on both sides. , holding a firegun and looking at the black giant beast warily.

Just after getting off the car, I wanted to take a leisurely look at the scenery at the foot of Liangshan Mountain, but the impatient Huniu behind me bumped into His Majesty the Emperor's back, knocking Li Hong off his feet with her huge head. reclined.

So before he could say hello to Jin Wuwei, Li Hong turned around and kicked Huniu's big head: "Why are you so anxious? Can I shut you in the car?"

Huniu was not angry either. She stretched out her front paws and scratched the head that had just been kicked by Li Hong, and then shook her head dissatisfied.

"Are the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xiao Shu here?" Li Hong looked up at the location of Qianling Mausoleum in the distance and asked the commander of the Jinwu Guard.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xiao Shu have just returned to the mountain courtyard from Qianling Mausoleum." Commander Jinwu Guards replied respectfully.

However, he planned to take other Jinwu Guards to escort His Majesty up the mountain, but Li Hong refused and asked them to go on their own. He took the tiger alone from the bluestone steps newly laid in the past two years. , began to walk upward slowly.

The people who climbed up the steps were no longer in a hurry. The Xianyang County Magistrate could naturally delay Li Lingyue's journey, so before the sun set, they could feel that the Liangshan Courtyard was pretty good.

As he was walking, he was thinking about whether he should take the queen back to Chang'an City this time, when he heard Huniu next to him suddenly let out a low roar like a warning.

Then I saw Huniu's tail no longer wagging, and her forelimbs also slowed down. The pair of cold and ruthless eyes on the huge tiger's face stared closely into the depths of the woods next to it, and continued to make some uneasy and warning sounds. A low growl.
