"I was there that day,"

In the Western Regions, the Governor's Office, Xiliuzhou, and Huwencheng (Kabul), Xue Huaiyi leaned against the city card, chewing lilac mint in his mouth, and holding a crossbow machine. The blood stains on his body were not dry yet, and even the "corpse" of the Turkic soldiers in the Qibin Kingdom sitting under his butt was still moaning intermittently.

A group of tooth soldiers from the vassal states in the river were chewing mint leaves, lilacs, or betel nuts. They were either finishing the moveable corpses or searching for valuable spoils from dead bodies. They bragged about Feng Xiaobao after another battle, and they just listened with a smile.

After a fierce battle, especially after a victory in the battle to defeat the enemy, they were very tired and needed to listen to stories such as beauty power to cheer up. Although they did not believe in the secrets of the palace, they also felt that they could cheer up.

"That day, when the Wu brothers and the clans entered the palace, I was there. I even saw Wu Sansi chopping off the emperor's head with a knife. Emperor Xianzong's blood splattered on my face. The blood of the real dragon was extremely hot. There was still a mark on my neck that would never fade...

The most elite soldiers of the Hezhong vassal states first entered the camp, but no one believed it.

They have heard it hundreds of times, but they are still very supportive every time they hear it.

"Really, you see, this mark is left behind after the blood of Emperor Xianzong's true dragon. Not only has it not faded, it even becomes clearer and clearer. I feel like it is a dragon scale......"

The captain Wen Jinzhong walked over and interrupted him, "Okay, don't talk too much more. Can dragon scales grow on your humble neck? Do you really think your life is too long?"

Wen Jinzhong was very clear about the details of the Huo Chang Xue Huaiyi under his command. This guy's real name is Feng Xiaobao. He was originally a fatherless orphan. He grew up in an orphanage. Later, he was adopted by a childless old Xijun, the old Xijun, but the old Xijun was injured and died soon after.

The young Feng Xiaobao then roamed the market and wandered on the streets, usually making some money by selling some wild medicine and folk remedies. Later, he was lucky. People from Jinzouyuan, the Hezhong vassal state in Luoyang visited the old Xijun and found that he was dead and left only one adopted son, so he took him to Jinzouyuan to do odd jobs.

Later, Xue Chongjian, son of Xue Shao, a Luzon cabinet scholar in Beijing, was appreciated by him diligence and agility, and arranged to be with Qin Zhao, the prince of Luzon in Luoyang, as his follower.

Feng Xiaobao was also smart and clever, and was very grateful to Xue Chongjian. He recognized Xue Chongjian as his adoptive father, and then was very loyal to the prince Qin Zhao, and gradually he did a good job.

In the fifteenth year of Chang'an, the 18-year-old prince of Luzon, Qin Zhao, left Luoyang and returned to Luzon. Feng Xiaobao, who changed his name to Xue Huaiyi, was kept by him and arranged to join the Shence Army of the Northern Yaya.

On the 20th day of the first lunar month of the fifteenth year of Chang'an, Wu Sansi and Wu Chengsi brothers joined forces with Zhang Jianzhi, Cui Xuanwei, and Li Duozuo, the general of the Marine People, and Li Zhan, the youngest son of Li Yifu, launched a mutiny with the intention of supporting the emperor's uncle, Li Longji, the prince of Linzi County, to proclaim himself emperor.

This Luoyang mutiny was actually caused by the reduction of the vassals and abolishing the throne by Emperor Xianzong of Chang'an Dynasty.

Since Li Kun and Xu Jingye's rebellion in Yangzhou failed in the first year of Chang'an, the incident happened again in the third year of Chang'an, Li Zhen and his son of King Yue raised troops in Erhai Lake, Yunnan, and that time it implicated more than a dozen princes.

Afterwards, the emperor's handling was also very harsh. He directly killed more than 30 royal family princes, abolished all the feudal states, implicated hundreds of deposed princes, princes, dukes, etc. Since the founding of Taizu of Li Tang, nearly half of the royal family members accumulated by the Six Dynasties were suddenly cleared out.

After this incident, the emperor began to plan to reduce the vassals and abolish the vassals. He even ignored the warnings of the Grand Tutor Qin Lang, and did not obey the advice of the ministers of the two governments, and insisted on his own actions.

From the three years of Chang'an to the official issuance of the vassal decree in the eighth year of Chang'an, the eighth year of the vassal decree was followed by the eight-year reduction of the vassal decree. In the first few years, the royal families of the vassal kings and royal families were all weak and were still smooth.

But the next step became more and more difficult, especially after the first few royal families who accepted the vassalization of the vassals returned to Luoyang, they did not end up in a good end. Two were forced to commit suicide, and a few died of depression, which even more forced other royal families to resist.

Then there was a five-year battle to reduce the vassals. Seven vassal kings took the lead in rebellion. The imperial court's vassal kings rushed east and west to fight, although in the end, all the vassal kings and princes were pacified by the imperial court's vassal kings.

But the Tang Dynasty has been turbulent in recent years.

It was precisely because of this battle to reduce the vassal states that a Luoyang mutiny broke out after the Spring Festival in the 15th year of Chang'an.

At that time, no one of the remaining royal family members dared to fight against the court anymore, so he had to accept the imperial enlistment and returned to Luoyang, voluntarily abandoning the vassals that had been enfeoffed since the Holy Ancestor.

Many royal families gathered in Luoyang, the capital, and were uneasy, and all kinds of rumors spread everywhere in the capital.

At this moment, there were rumors that after winning the battle of the abolished royal family, the emperor was ready to take advantage of the victory to pursue the title of the heroes.

So on the 20th day of the first lunar month, a sudden mutiny broke out in Luoyang.

There were many forces involved, including many royal family members in Beijing, even eunuchs, foreign generals, ministers in the court, etc. They easily entered the Xuanwu Gate and rushed all the way to the Ganlu Hall.

In the end, the forty-year-old emperor Li Hao was killed in Ganlu Hall by Wu Sansi Sword, and his body was separated and his death was extremely miserable.

This incident shocked the world.

Afterwards, the Wu Sansi brothers, Prime Minister Zhang Jianzhi and others welcomed the emperor's uncle, Li Longji, to proclaim himself emperor and ascend the throne.

However, this mutiny usurped court did not last long.

After the Luoyang mutiny, Qin Lang, the supreme king of Luzon, issued a manifesto to the world in San Francisco to fight against rebellion, calling on the princes, vassal states, civil and military officials, and local tyrants to organize the royal army and go to Beijing to serve the king.

Qin Lang personally led the Luzon fleet into the estuary of the Yangtze River and landed in Yangzhou.

Officials along the way responded one after another.

Qin Lang did not delay at all, and did not wait for other people to gather. He went straight along the canal without stopping. On the 25th day of the mutiny, that is, on February 15th, Qin Lang had already reached the city of Luoyang.

When he left San Francisco, he only brought eight thousand people, but when he arrived at the city of Luoyang, he had eighty thousand people around him.

Even when his blood shield and golden lion flag appeared under the city, most of the Northern Yamen soldiers responsible for the outer periphery of Luoyang directly turned on and off, turned around and came to pay homage to the old master, and then took the lead in serving as the front drive.

Qin Lang rode his horse to the lower city of Luoyang. The Jinwu Guards, who were responsible for guarding the nine gates of Luoyang's outer city, actually had internal conflicts and fought against each other.

Before they could attack the city, the righteous men had already seized a city gate for them and opened it to welcome them into the city.

The army of kings entered Luoyang and entered Zihui Palace.

Li Longji, who became the emperor for twenty-five days, caused trouble at Xuanwu Gate.

On that day, the old teacher Qin Lang invited the ninth son of Taiyuan Prince Li He, born to the old prince Li Xing and the prince of Qin, from the prison, to support the emperor's grandson who survived because he was only one year old.

Li He was the last surviving grandson of Emperor Li Hao, and the crown prince Li Sheng was also killed after the previous mutiny.

The more ruthless Li Hao was when he cut off the vassals and eliminated the royal family, the more powerful they revenge against the emperor's family after the mutiny.

Li Hao's princes were not left, and the nine sons of the crown prince Li Ling had only the youngest ninth prince, Li He, survived, but he was locked in prison together afterwards. He would definitely not be able to escape death when he grew up.

Qin Lang supported Li He as the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty and changed his name to Li Yi.

After more than twenty days, Luoyang City began a new round of cleaning again.

During this bloody purge, the former Zhongshu Ling Qin Xiaozhong, who had retired, came out again to serve as Zhongshu Ling, and the former Korean Jiedushi Qin Xia was appointed as Privy Councilor.

Qin Lang's daughter, Empress Gaozong, biological mother of Zhongzong, and the queen of Emperor Xianzong's grandmother, Qin Roujia, was also in her seventies at this time and was honored as the supreme empress dowager and ruled from behind the curtain again.

Li Hao added the temple name Xianzong and was posthumously named Emperor Shengshen Zhang Wuxiao.

The emperor's father, Crown Prince Li Ling, was posthumously awarded the emperor as a filial piety and buried again with the ritual of the emperor.

Although Li Longji died, the throne was still deposed, and even the throne of Linzi was not retained. He was directly deposed as a commoner. Even his surname was changed to Mu and was directly expelled from the royal family genealogy.

Li changed to Mu, meaning that he had no son. In fact, after Li Longji committed suicide, his descendants were quickly completely killed, leaving no one left.

Three months later.

The situation is stable again.

Li Yi, the eighth emperor of the Tang Dynasty, was just a one-year-old child and didn't know anything. Qin Roujia, who was in his seventies, was Li Yi's grandmother and his grandfather's grandmother. More than 40 years ago, Emperor Gaozong died of illness only one year after he succeeded to the throne. At that time, Qin Roujiafang was in his twenties, and supported Emperor Zhongzong, who was only three years old, and ruled the country from behind the curtain.

More than 40 years have passed in a blink of an eye. She has been behind the curtain for her son, Li Ye, and for more than ten years. Her son has ruled for more than ten years. Then her son died in his thirties. Her grandson, Li Hao, who was in his twenties, succeeded to the throne and became the emperor for fifteen years. However, she ended up dead because of her insistence on reducing the vassal states, leaving only one-year-old emperor grandson.

Fortunately, there is still a Qin family to rely on.

Back then, his brother Qin Jun and his uncle Qin Li led the support of the two governments, but now his nephew Qin Xiaozhong and his younger brother Qin Xia are in charge of the support of the two governments.

After staying in Luoyang for a hundred days, Qin Lang refused the hard work of the queen behind the curtain to keep her daughter, and insisted on leaving Luoyang and returning to Luzon.

Qin Lang took the lead in Li Luo, and asked the royal generals and officials from all over the country to take the rewards from the new emperor and then return to each other without any trouble.

Xue Huaiyi did not lie. Three years ago, the Wu brothers and others rushed into the palace and killed the lord, he was indeed present. Because the emperor was not strong at that time, Xue Huaiyi was demoted to Hezhong Town and started over as an ordinary crossbowman.

In the third year, he was ordinary bell soldiers from the river and gradually promoted to Youyi camp with his merits, then joined the Ya soldiers, and then entered the elite troops first. Although he was still a fire chief, it was because the last time he attacked Hesina City in the Hadarati Kingdom, he not only killed several prisoners, but also raped the king's queen.

So he was demoted from the deputy lieutenant to the Datou Bing, and made contributions to the Huwencheng and just promoted him to the Chief of Fire. If it weren't for the Qin family, Xue Huaiyi would have died during the purge three years ago, so how could he have had the chance to come to the Western Regions?

And what he committed last time was enough for military law to deal with ten times.

The Hezhong vassal state is the strongest among the eighteen vassal states in the world, and it is also the strongest controlled by the Qin family. The current Jiedushi Qin Jingsi is the son of Qin Shandao, the brother Qin Lang, who once served as the Jiedushi of Hezhong.

After all, Xue Huaiyi was the adopted son of the Luzon Pavilion Master Xue Shao, and was once a person who had been by the Luzon Crown Prince Qin Zhao for more than ten years. If Qin Zhao personally gave the title of vassal knight, Hezhong Town must have a short-term protection.

"I was there at that time. Three years have passed in the blink of an eye. Now I often dream about the scene at that time." Xue Huaiyi sighed.

"Fortunately, there was a Grand Tutor in the Tang Dynasty and a Qin family, otherwise the world would have been in chaos!" Xue Huaiyi sighed.

The warriors who had entered the camp in the river middle school had a feeling of honor when they looked at the King of Kings, who had already surrendered at their feet.

The Qin family is the strongest guardian of the Tang Dynasty, and the Hezhongya soldiers under the command of the Qin family are naturally the sharpest sword to protect the Tang Dynasty.

The Emperor of Luoyang, the soldiers of Hezhongya.

In the past two years, the barbarians from the Tiaozhi Protectorate and the Xindu Protectorate dared to have the intention of being disobedient. They immediately destroyed them, attacked the fortresses one by one, cut off their heads and sent them back to Luoyang to present them to His Majesty.

With the capture of the Huwen City under my feet, from Tochar to Tiaozhi and then to Xindu, there was no anti-flag that rebelled against the Tang Dynasty and was still stuck.

Several fast horses ran out of the central army camp of the governor outside the city, and they announced a bad news to the warriors who had just taken down the capital of Shibin.

Qin Lang, the senior of the seven dynasties of the Tang Dynasty, the six emperors, and the Grand Tutor who established the Five Emperors, died after his 100th birthday in San Francisco.

Luoyang imperial court issued an edict to mourn the grand lord Qin Lang, and buried Qin Lang with the ritual of the emperor...

Xue Huaiyi was stunned.

The warriors of the Hezhongya Army who first entered the camp were all stunned. For most of the thirties and forties, they all grew up listening to the stories of the Grand Tutor Qin Lang when they were young.

Qin Lang is a legend, an eternal legend.

During the chaos three years ago, Qin Taishi raised his arms and shouted, and all parts of the world responded to the king. Qin Taishi went north, and no one stopped him along the way. Wherever he passed, there was only welcome and reward. People and merchants from all over the country provided food and grass.

Qin Lang appeared under Luoyang City, and the soldiers in Luoyang City had internal conflicts. Many people, however, avoided a big battle in Luoyang.

Afterwards, under Qin Lang's leadership, the court quickly ended the turmoil and quickly returned to peace.

Master Qin had the merit of re-creating the Tang Dynasty and turned the tide again and again, but every time, he retired without any nostalgia, and had no strange ambitions.

Such a legend.

It's actually over.
