By water, you can reach Chang'an Waiguan Road in two days, and then return to Chang'an in one day.
I don’t want to encounter sudden situations in Mianzhou and a civil unrest in Jingzhou.
The prefect of Jingzhou was trapped in the city, and Jingzhou City was occupied by the militia.
When Bai Song heard the news, he learned it from a pedestrian, and immediately went to the prefect of Mianzhou to inquire about the news, and the news was confirmed.
At this moment, five thousand garrison troops had gathered in Mianzhou, and the leader was named Hou Yuelin. After some inquiry, I found out that he was Hou Junji's son.
The incident happened suddenly. Bai Song learned about it by the way, but decided to change his schedule to find out.
A carriage came out of Mianzhou and arrived at the military camp outside the city. Soldiers immediately stopped it: "The military camp is an important area, no unauthorized entry is allowed!"
"I am Bai Song. I am passing through here and want to see your general."
Bai Song opened the car curtain and shouted loudly.
In the entire Tang Dynasty, Bai Song was the only one who did not need to reveal his official name, he only needed a name.
It is true that Bai Song did not have a big name, but it was just a simple name that made soldiers inside and outside the military camp take him seriously.
"Master Bai, we will report it later."
After a while, the gate of the military camp opened, and a group of generals and soldiers lined up to greet him.
"Lord Bai, you are here to welcome us from afar!"
A general in his early thirties held his hand towards Bai Song in the car from a distance.
Judging from his facial expression, which is very similar to Hou Junji's, he must be Hou Yuelin, Hou Junji's son.
"General Hou, I'm sorry for disturbing you."
"Hey, it's an honor for our army that Master Bai can come. Follow me to the Chinese army's tent immediately. I must entertain you well."
Bai Song did not refuse and called the two girls in the car to get down.
The officers and soldiers in the army were so enticed that they swallowed their saliva when they saw the appearance of two beautiful girls.
Especially when he saw the dignified and elegant Ouyang Yanran, his eyes seemed to be cannibalistic.
Ouyang Yanran pretended not to notice, maintained her posture, and followed Bai Song in an orderly manner.
Along the way, Ouyang Yanran has maintained this posture, maintaining her beauty without losing her grace, following her goal at a distance, watching Chang'an approaching day by day, but their feelings have not changed in any substantial way.
I felt somewhat anxious.
Fortunately, what happened in Mianzhou gave her some confidence. If she didn't waste another day, she would have one more chance. If she could leave the boring carriage and change the environment, she might have more opportunities to get close to him.
Looking at these soldiers, Ouyang Yanran had a thought in her mind, whether she should show off a little and seduce one or two bold soldiers to belittle her, so as to see Master Bai's attitude towards her.
But such an idea was quickly rejected by her, as this method would be self-defeating if it was not done right.
After a while, the three of them had arrived at the Chinese army tent.
Hou Yuelin saw that the two women around Bai Song didn't have any bad intentions, but were a little troubled. He called the soldiers to bring two cloaks and forced both women to wear them to avoid causing commotion in the army.
Later, Hou Yuelin called his men to prepare a banquet. Before the banquet, Hou Yuelin asked: "Master Bai, do you have anything to say when you come today?"
"I heard about the civil uprising in Jingzhou and the prefect was trapped, so I came here to inquire about it."
"It's just a mob, nothing to worry about. When our troops arrive outside Jingzhou City, the mob will naturally abandon their armor and surrender."
"So simple?" Bai Song asked back, "I think General Hou didn't say anything. I passed through Jingzhou several times and knew that there were three thousand soldiers stationed in Jingzhou. Before there were troops stationed in the west, there were military camps on the north and south sides.
There are 1,000 troops stationed in the city, and there are more than ten sentry posts at various strategic points, each with dozens of soldiers. If it is really just a group of mobs making trouble, why does the general need to specially gather troops?"
Hou Yuelin touched his beard awkwardly and smiled hesitantly: "Your Excellency does not understand the actual situation. Even if it is not as simple as what I said, it is not as alarmist as your Excellency."
"General, I left Chang'an this time to inspect various places on behalf of the emperor. If the general refuses to tell the truth, then I can only tell the truth to the court. Although the accident happened in Jingzhou, it is not difficult to implicate the joint and several responsibilities
On the general’s head.”
"This..." Hou Yuelin was a little embarrassed when he heard it. He thought for a while and then sighed, "Hey, since you want to hear the truth, I will tell the truth. The matter started because the prince encircled and suppressed a generation of Jianghu forces in Jingzhou."
"Prince?"
"Your Majesty, you don't know, right? The prince brought a group of experts from the imperial court to Jingzhou to suppress the Jianghu forces. The news spread all over the world."
"I know."
Bai Song realized that the news he heard was that Princess Danyang had wiped out the Jianghu forces.
Back in Jingzhou, the prince took the lead.
Li Chengqian left Chang'an with Princess Danyang, and Bai Song saw it with his own eyes.
How can a child like him take charge of such a thing?
It must be Princess Danyang who was behind the plan, but the news about the Jingzhou generation was dominated by the prince.
Bai Song knew there was something fishy about it as soon as he heard it.
Hou Yuelin continued: "The prince has been fighting against the Jianghu forces for three months in Yizhou, Jingzhou, killing many people. When the Jianghu sects heard about it, all the Jianghu sects were shocked. Seeing that the Jianghu forces were almost killed, it caused a stir.
Jingzhou people's grievances. Because many of those Jianghu people have relatives and friends, and their relatives and friends are the people of the generation in Jingzhou. The prince's killing of Jianghu people is to make enemies of the people. One or two people can be said to be fine, but the prince killed too many people. Jingzhou
The people all regarded the prince as their mortal enemy, so there was a civil uprising in Jingzhou."
"So that's it..."
Hou Yuelin continued: "Now there are rumors from all sides in Jingzhou that the prince killed innocent people indiscriminately. The hatred has affected the garrison in Jingzhou. Now that someone among the garrison has changed his life, the city of Jingzhou will naturally not be protected. Those people are not trying to enclose the land and become kings.
, spread the word to make the matter bigger and reach the ears of the emperor. Unless the prince is dismissed, he will never stop."
"There are such things!" Bai Songxin said it was weird. At first glance, it sounded like someone was causing trouble, but was it possible that it really caused anger and resentment?
After thinking for a while, Bai Song asked, "What are you going to do, general?"
"What else can we do? Since we have led the army to attack Jingzhou and dispersed the mob, they will naturally not make more noise. The matter cannot be spread outside, otherwise it will bring bad reputation to the prince and he will be punished.
If someone takes advantage of it with intention, that is what will really shake the foundation of the country."
"If ordinary people really revolt, I suggest that the general should focus on making peace."
"Make peace? How to make peace? Do you want the prince to show his guilt to the world? If the mob does not get the punishment it deserves, and all places will imitate it in the future, what should we do? Your Excellency, put kindness first, I have nothing to say, but the army
The rules of the army are different from those of the imperial court, so please forgive me."
