Chapter 629 Eagle Dog(1/2)
The Northern Imperial Army emerged with the completion of the nationalization of the army in the early Tang Dynasty and was a prominent product of the emperor's personal needs.
The true meaning of the Northern Ya Imperial Army began in the 12th year of Zhenguan.
From the beginning, the Northern Imperial Army had very obvious privatization characteristics, and its source of troops was mainly recruited, which was very different from the government soldiers. The establishment of the Yulin Army in the two dynasties of Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian also represented the separation of the Northern Imperial Army from the Sixteen Guards of the Southern Imperial Army and was closely linked to the imperial power. However, at the beginning of the establishment of the Yulin Army, it mainly assumed the functions of the Central Guards. Among them, there was an independent branch within the Yulin Army, which was the Hundred Cavalry established by Li Shimin.
To a certain extent, the relationship between the hundreds of cavalry and the emperor is closer and belongs to the emperor's private army.
Later, Wu Zetian changed the hundred cavalry to thousands of cavalry, and his private military attributes still existed, but they could no longer meet the emperor's requirements.
In real history, Li Longji ascended the throne, changed thousands of cavalry to ten thousand cavalry, and then changed them to the Dragon Martial Army based on ten thousand cavalry.
By the late Kaiyuan period, in order to strengthen his rule, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang established an inner flying dragon soldier commanded by eunuchs.
At that time, the first commander of this inner flying dragon soldier was Yang Sixu, who was later called the murderous eunuch...
Yang Shouwen didn't know the existence of the flying dragon soldiers in history.
When he left the Peony Garden of the East Palace, he still felt a little confused and even dizzy.
According to the explanations of Li Xian and Shangguan Wan'er, he generally understood the internal structure of this flying dragon soldier. Although Yang Shouwen did not know the structure of the Jinyiwei very well, he still vaguely felt that the Feilong soldier seemed to be somewhat similar to the Jinyiwei.
Perhaps, the structure of the Flying Dragon Soldier is not as tight as that of the Jinyiwei, but its functions are similar.
"Qingzhi, you and I will cooperate in the future, so please take care of me."
After Yang Sixu sent Yang Shouwen back to Zongzheng Temple, he smiled and bowed goodbye to Yang Shouwen.
Yang Shouwen was able to return the gift instinctively, and only then woke up after watching Yang Sixu leave. Yang Sixu had become his partner.
"Alang, are you okay?"
Yang Shiliu came up and asked with concern.
Yang Shouwen waved his hand to show that it was okay. He sat down in the courtyard and tried hard to calm himself down, and scenes of the Peony Garden also emerged in his mind.
The Flying Dragon Soldier sounds very awesome and is directly under the emperor.
But what about it?
This flying dragon soldier does not even have a prototype. To be precise, the flying dragon soldier at this time is just a concept proposed by Wu Zetian. Shangguan Wan'er and Li Xian are trying to improve it, but they have not really started to form it.
In other words, at this time, there were only two commanders, Yang Shouwen and Yang Sixu.
Yang Sixu faced the inner guard and defended the imperial power.
Yang Shouwen suppressed the outside world and was responsible for clearing out all dangers that might threaten the imperial power.
This is really a big problem. Yang Shouwen was a little excited and confused, not knowing where to start.
"Marl, Sixteen... You two clean up and leave after it's dark."
"Here!"
Yang Moli was overjoyed and was locked up in this sect temple all day long. Although there were no restrictions, she was not very comfortable after all.
But Yang Shiliu reacted and said softly: "Alang, Wukong and the others..."
"Take it away together."
After Yang Shouwen finished speaking, he entered the room.
He lay on the couch and heard Yang Moli's untuned northern songs coming from outside the room, and he couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Yang Moli was stupid and seemed very pitiful.
But if you are not a fish, how can you know the joy of a fish?
At least, he is carefree and doesn’t have to be as troubled as himself, and he has things that are not enough every day!
Thinking of this, Yang Shouwen couldn't help but sigh softly and closed his eyes.
By the way, Guer has been away for many days and has not come back... What if she knew she was leaving after she came back?
The older you are, the more you care about it.
Yang Shouwen also felt a lot of emotion for a moment.
However, he quickly calmed down: the most urgent task was to leave here as soon as possible and rush to Zizhou to bring your young lady back. As for other things, we can talk about them later. In short, his heart has flown thousands of miles away now.
As night falls, a drizzle suddenly arrives.
Wukong, Bajie, Sha Monk and Little White Dragon squatted side by side on the porch. Yang Shouwen also changed into a black suit, wrapped in a black mat on his head, and sat upright in the room. When it was almost midnight, footsteps came from outside the yard gate, followed by someone who opened the door lock outside, and then the footsteps went away. Yang Shouwen stood up and walked out of the room...
Yang Shiliu opened the door gently and saw that there was no one outside the yard, so he turned around and looked at Yang Shouwen.
Yang Shouwen nodded, patted Wukong's head, and then walked out with great strides. Four mastiffs followed him, Yang Moli and Yang Shiliuo broke the back. Three and four dogs left the courtyard behind. Yang Shouwen raised his eyes and saw a fire pounding in the distance. He hurriedly ran towards the flashing fire, but saw the side door of the Zongzheng Temple opened and there was no one around.
It seems that Yang Sixu has made arrangements!
Yang Shouwen waved, stepped out through the side door, and then walked along the Imperial City corridor, but was soon blocked by a river.
"Qingzhi!"
In the darkness, Yang Sixu walked out.
The four mastiffs immediately made an attacking posture, but were stopped by Yang Shouwen.
"Walking down the river, there will be a water gate. The family has arranged it and the water gate has not been closed. You can go out directly at that time... Miss Shangguan has ordered people to pick you up outside and change your clothes and you can leave."
After saying that, he patted Yang Shouwen's shoulder, which was afraid of Yang Shouwen, and turned around and left.
Yang Shouwen did not say anything, and took four mastiffs into the river with slight hands and feet.
The river water was a little cool, but it was still tolerated. Three people and four dogs walked down the river water, and after passing through the water gate, they went up to the south bank as Yang Sixu said. This is a tributary of the hub water. After leaving, they were actually no longer in Luoyang City.
There are weeds on both sides of the strait.
A night wind blew, and Yang Shouwen couldn't help but shivered.
There is no way, time is tight!
Originally, he could have waited for Wu Zetian's pardon, but he couldn't wait any time he went back and forth!
And Shangguan Wan'er also told him that Wu Zetian was not too tolerant to him now. After all, Yang Shouwen burned the Wu Family Building and forced Wu Chongxun to jump into the river to escape. The entire Luoyang people saw it. Entering Zongzheng Temple is already a kind of preferential treatment. If he was released at this time, it would inevitably make the Wu family feel dull and also cause dissatisfaction from the royal family.
The throne was not as comfortable as imagined.
In the eyes of outsiders, Wu Zetian holds the power of life and death and is extremely noble.
But in fact, she must consider everything carefully and take care of everything, rather than just suppressing it vigorously...
To a certain extent, Wu Zetian was far more constrained than other emperors.
"Shizi, Shizi?"
A torch lit up in the woods in the distance.
A group of people walked out of the forest, and the leader was the Yang family.
Yang Rui and Yang Qingnu were both following her, and there was also a middle-aged man next to her.
Yang saw Yang Shouwen clearly and walked over quickly.
"Auntie, why are you here?"
"If I don't come, wouldn't I have to keep it from me?"
Yang took Yang Shouwen's hand and looked up and down, tears flashing in his eyes.
"I have suffered my wickedness... I have caused you to commit such a serious crime for the sake of my young mother. How can you relieve my aunt?"
Yang obviously knew about the young lady, but he couldn't bear to take risks like Yang Shouwen.
Not to mention what is happening in Zizhou now, just Yang Shouwen escaped from prison is enough to make others fall into the ground. In Yang's heart, the young lady is her biological daughter, so she certainly misses her. But Yang Shouwen is also the one who sees her growing up and treats her as her own. Over the years, although Yang Shouwen has not been by her often, Yang sees that filial piety.
Daughter, it’s very important!
But if Yang Shouwen's life was paid, it would not be the result that Yang was willing to see.
Yang Shouwen took Yang's hand and whispered: "Auntie, I promised two years ago to bring the young lady back, but I broke my promise and became fat. In the past two years, the young lady has been wandering away and must have suffered a lot of grievances. If there is news about her this time, I will find her back no matter what, and I will never let her continue to suffer outside... Auntie, don't worry..."
"My aunt is not worried about her young mother, she just feels wronged. Her aunt is uneasy."
Yang Shouwen comforted Yang a few more words and finally persuaded her.
"Where is my father?"
"My father and mother went to Hongnong the day before yesterday.
Tomorrow morning, I will take Qingnu with me."
Yang Shouwen frowned and immediately understood Yang Chenglie's thoughts.
Yang Chenglie is a left-behind Dongdu. If he escapes, he will definitely be blamed.
Now, Yang Chenglie has left, and it must be discussed with the prince. He knew that he could not stop Yang Shouwen, but he had to worry about the elders and young people in the family. The best way was to stay out of the matter! He happened to be able to pay homage to Hongnong this year, so he could not be implicated.
It seems that for my own actions, everyone in my family took action.
"Aunt Yang, let Qingzhi change his clothes first. It's cold, don't freeze him."
The middle-aged man suddenly spoke, finally awakening everyone.
Yang immediately handed over a package, and Yang Shouwen and the other two turned into the forest, took off their wet clothes, wiped them dry, and put on a dress of dry clothes.
To be continued...
