Chapter 23 The Situation

Li Yan was shocked when he saw Li Yao: "Isn't this Li Yao? Why are you sleeping here?" As soon as he said that, he felt something was wrong: "Ah, no, is this guy here to help you resist the Pang Xun rebellion? He came quickly, but he fell down quickly. Why didn't you help him up and let him lie here... Oh no, this guy has the third level of Qi training, how could he be so unreasonable? You were not injured..."

Speaking of this, Li Yan finally realized the biggest problem. He looked at Li Ye suspiciously: "What's going on tonight's attack? Why did Li Yao lie here seriously injured, but you are fine? The people in front of the Hanghuamen didn't look like weak people. Many people were not injured, so why did they surrender..."

Even if Li Yan doesn't adjust, his IQ is fine after all.

Li Ye sat down in a high chair and signaled Li Yan to sit too. In the other party's curious and puzzled gaze, he shook his head gently: "If you don't come tonight, everything will be fine. Since you have come, you will lie in this muddy water."

After saying this, Li Ye suddenly fell silent. He looked up at the room, and his mind drifted a little far away in an instant.

This battle in Prince An’s Mansion tonight is a far-reaching storm and will not be quelled so easily. For Li Ye, this is his opportunity to inherit the title of Prince An and it is also a trouble of endless troubles.

No one visited the An Prince's Mansion all night, including the Chang'an Mansion, which serves as the head of the Chang'an City Public Security Bureau.

Li Ye took Li Yao, Li Muzhao and others into custody, and took them all without hesitation for the magical tools and elixirs they carried with them.

Those elixirs are good for practice. According to the contributions of Li Ye's battle last night, they were rewarded with the soldiers of the royal family, especially the monks of a high level, so that they could achieve the cultivation of qi as soon as possible.

Li Yao's Breaking Cloud Spear is a second-level top-grade magic weapon, which is very rare. Li Ye called Shangguan Qingcheng and planned to let her use it.

"Second-level magic weapon is no longer a common thing. This cloud-breaking spear is even more precious. Why don't the prince use it yourself?" Shangguan Qingcheng opened his bright eyes wide and flattered.

"I will accept what I gave to you." Li Ye's tone was unquestionable.

He looked at Shangguan Qingcheng, silent for a moment, and added: "The Tao you practice is the Tao of the generals on the battlefield. Since childhood, he practiced the three winters and the three nines in winter, and worked hard for many years. Only after achieving the 'spiritual rejuvenation and a courageous and fearless heart' have become a warrior. After that, you are familiar with military tactics, know the battle formation, and can kill the enemy on the horse, and can control the army off the horse, and then you will become a warrior on the battlefield."

"I heard that the way of military generals on the battlefield is to accumulate strength. First, you can "read three thousand volumes of military books and practice the sword of killing on the battlefield", and then you can "strive thousands of troops as armoured as armours, kill the enemy leader in front of the iron armor formation". This is also the reason why you have been able to achieve martial arts for many years and achieve Qi training in a few days. In the end, you have accumulated enough."

"But the way for military generals on the battlefield is to achieve the state of 'the great success of military strategy, without anger, be powerful, and be able to condense the general's aura, make the three armies afraid of surrender and avoid small things'. Only then can they become a climate. To achieve a generation of famous generals, they must be able to 'regulate the aura of the soldiers of the three armies, be able to move forward with no strength, break the formation and pull the city with one spear."

When Li Ye said this, Shangguan Qingcheng's eyes were like stars, full of yearning, but then she calmed down, clasped her fists and said, "One spear breaks the formation and one spear pulls the city. This realm has been cultivated for a hundred years, and even King An...I dare not..."

Li Ye waved his hand and interrupted her: "My father has not achieved the state of cultivation, which does not mean that you cannot achieve cultivation."

Shangguan Qingcheng was stunned. These words made her feel confused.

Li Ye looked at her: "Famous generals, no one was killed, and thousands of troops avoided their white robes. Chen Qingzhi's romantic life will be your romantic life in the future. This is my expectation for you."

Shangguan Qingcheng was shocked. She might not have even thought about Chen Qingzhi's realm before. At this time, facing Li Ye's trust, Shangguan Qingcheng was very excited and could not speak, but the bright eyes flashed with strange light.

"The Breaking Cloud Spear is nothing, use it first." Li Ye held the middle section of the long spear in his hand and handed it to Shangguan Qingcheng. At this moment, he remembered for no reason, the tragic back of the doomsday who shouted "Use my blood to do my best for my emperor" in front of the fire in Xuanwu Tower in his previous life.

At that time, Shangguan Qingcheng had already reached the level of a military general, and she had many opportunities to lead troops to fight. As long as she was willing to leave Li Ye, she did not do that. She was the commander of the guard of the puppet emperor. She was willing to be the one who had been willing to die in battle for nearly twenty years until she died for the puppet emperor.

"The last general...receive the order!" Shangguan Qingcheng took over the Breaking Cloud Spear with both hands, and his tone no longer hesitated, but became sonorous and powerful.

After Shangguan Qingcheng went out, Li Yan, who was sitting on the collapse, couldn't help but be amazed: "You are generous... But the military strategist is so difficult to cultivate the climate, otherwise the Tang Dynasty would not have been successful for a hundred years. Do you really think this woman will be possible?"

Li Ye smiled: "The way of practicing Taoism in the Tang Dynasty is nothing more than four types of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. There are some other methods in the countries outside the territory - but except for the way of Taoism, the degree to which the other three methods are difficult to practice are actually similar."

To cultivate Qi on one or two or even ten levels, then build a foundation to achieve real people, this is the division of the realm of cultivators by the Taoist sect and the most common way of practicing Dharma in the world. The practice of the three Confucian, Buddhist and military schools is not so specific, nor so many steps.

For example, after the monks achieve qi training, they are military generals, followed by the division of generals, generals, and commanders, and even famous generals. However, the military's practice path is combined with the way of the battlefield and the life of the army. They all have requirements for understanding the art of military, war, and the way of controlling soldiers. It is useless to meditate and breathe.

This is also why the monks from the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and military affairs are rare and difficult to become a climate, and the requirements are too high.

The cultivation of Taoism is much simpler and clearer, so Taoist monks were absolutely mainstream in the Tang Dynasty. Even military generals, Jinshi and later Confucian scholars were mostly practicing Taoism.

Li Ye continued: "Besides, no one has touched the realm of famous generals in the world. Who is now in Chang'an City?"

Li Yan thought for a while: "You mean in Hexi, the Western Regions defeated Tubo, the Uighur army, and defeated Hexi with their own strength, and the eleven states in the Western Regions. Now the former governor of Guiyi Army who was granted the title of the court, Situ Zhang Yichao?"

Li Ye nodded: "There will be no other person in this world except Zhang Situ."

Li Yan sighed, suddenly became a little sad, and said with emotion: "If Zhang Situ had been guarding Hexi, he might have really achieved the realm of a famous general. But now he was ordered to return to the court and lived in Chang'an City. Even though he had touched the threshold of the realm of a famous general, he would probably never have the chance to go further after leaving the battlefield."

Speaking of Zhang Yichao, Li Ye couldn't help but think of the situation in the frontier of the Tang Dynasty.

When the Tang Dynasty quelled the Anshi Rebellion, the Central Plains army was corrupt and could not stop the riots, so the court was forced to draw elite border troops to guard the crisis. Because the defense of the Western Regions was empty, the Tubo, Uighur and other alien races took advantage of the situation to raise troops and invaded the Western Regions from all directions. In the Hexi region, the Tang border army fought with extremely disadvantaged forces for decades when the imperial court was unable to send reinforcements. In the end, the ammunition and food were exhausted, and the soldiers died. The Hexi region was divided and occupied by Tubo, Uighur and other tribes.

When the late emperor Xuanzong was alive, he worked hard to govern the Tang Dynasty. With the assistance of a group of wise ministers such as King An, he managed the Tang Dynasty in an orderly manner. As a result, the feudal states feared submission and eliminated border troubles, and the Tang Dynasty showed signs of revival.

It was also at this time that Zhang Yichao, a son of a general who grew up in Shazhou, Hexi, raised the banner of expelling Tubo and regaining our rivers and mountains. He fought first and then Guazhou, founded the Guiyi Army, fought bloody battles for decades, and recovered the eleven states. So ten years ago, he presented the provinces to the map in Chang'an and reported the victory to the court.

In the eighth year of Xiantong, Emperor Li Han issued an edict to summon Zhang Yichao to Beijing and be promoted to the title.

Zhang Yichao lived in Chang'an City from this.

Li Yan suddenly said: "Since the Anshi Rebellion, the vassal states have been domineering and border troubles have arisen. It is an unquestionable fact, only to be serious or not. I heard that when the Uighurs learned that Zhang Situ was living in Chang'an and did not return, they began to use troops to the Guiyi army. After his uncle was detained in Huainan, Nanzhao's troops also showed signs of moving towards Shuzhong and Lingnan."

Li Ye remained silent.

When the late Emperor Xuanzong was in the reign of Emperor Xuanzong, the Tang Dynasty was revived and the country was powerful. Therefore, foreign races on the border were afraid of the dynasty, and the people of the Tang Dynasty were all eager to the court, so Zhang Yichao was able to raise troops and gather their territory.

However, the current Emperor Li Yan of the Tang Dynasty was incompetent, indulged in pleasure, ignored political affairs, and trusted treacherous people. Therefore, the power was controlled by the sluts and the government was dark, so the border troubles arose again. There were many mutinies in the vassal states, and the treacherous thieves in the country could not be banned. The world of the Tang Dynasty showed signs of the end of the world and the disaster was about to come.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things. The government will worry about major national affairs. I don't care about you or I think too much." Li Yan shook his head and laughed at himself. "That's right, you have achieved training in Qi this time and defeated Li Yao's conspiracy. But there is a big happy event. Although I came late and couldn't help, you have to invite me to Kangfufang for a walk!"

Last night, Li Ye told Li Yan about him and Li Yao, and all the part he could defeat Li Yao was attributed to Yuan Tiangang, saying that he had obtained the inheritance of martial arts left by Yuan Tiangang.

At first, it shocked Li Yan very much, shocking both Li Yao's viciousness and boldness, and also shocking Li Ye's good luck and the great inheritance of Yuan Tiangang.

Although Li Yan was surprised by the former, he was not unacceptable. After all, the fact that the Li Tang royal family is now fighting for power is in such an ugly situation. As the prince in Chang'an City, Li Yan is well-known.

Now that midnight has passed, Li Yan has recovered. This King of Pu is an indifferent person. Such a big thing has happened and he is still involved in the storm. However, he has no intention of thinking about any plans or anything, and he has been obsessed with Kangfufang.

"I know that you have spent a lot of time on your trip to Dongdu. I must have missed the Qing Gongzi of Jinxiu Pavilion very much. It's better, I'll accompany you in a few days." Li Ye said with a smile.

"Who is going to Jinxiu Pavilion to find Qing Gong'er? Be careful to be arrested and went to Zongzheng Temple to get my father's board!"

Wu You, who was wearing two pigtails, jumped in and glared at Li Yan as soon as he entered the door, looking like you dare to take Brother Ye to fool around, I will make you look good. Li Yan spread his hands and said that he was innocent, meaning that what he said just now was obviously what Li Ye said, why did you blame me?

Wu You turned his head and snorted, ignored Li Yan, and ran to Li Ye with a smile. Just as he was about to say something, his little face suddenly collapsed, he lowered his head in blaming himself, and said shyly: "Brother Ye, I'm late."
