Chapter 246 Zhao Fengyun
"Where did you know that I am a general?"
When Li Bai heard this, he shook his head and glanced at the surroundings.
At this time, Zhao Fengyun said: "Gao Changgong's people, my comrades have solved them, but this is indeed not a place to speak. Please go to the inn!"
After Zhao Fengyun said that, he took Li Bai into the inn.
After entering the inn, the inn was closed. At some point, seven or eight old men had appeared in the inn. The old men's eyes were filled with a look of indifferent life and death.
After the inn was closed, Li Bai said: "From the words of General Zhao Guangren, the grandson of General Zhao, I learned that you are a brave general."
"I don't know that the old general is coming, but it's really a mistake for the juniors to welcome him."
Zhao Fengyun.
The old general who was dominating the Great Wall and leading troops to fight hundreds of battles.
Because of the remarkable results of the battle, the old general was upright and defeated the demon seeds back then and wanted to lead his troops to drive them away and let the demon seeds withdraw from Loulan.
However, he was blocked by the imperial prime minister Gao Yao. Gao Yao went to Cambodia and said that going to Loulan would only cause heavy losses to the army, and Gao Zong was also afraid that Western Xinjiang would be lost.
So he issued an order to suspend the march and missed the opportunity to drive away the demon seeds.
Half a month later, the demon seed returned. Zhao Fengyun tried his best to stop him because of his troops, but the demon seed was so arrogant that he defeated Zhao Fengyun and lost a 100,000 army.
In the end, the rest were some veterans around him.
Gao Yao's slander led to Zhao Fengyun being demoted. In anger, Zhao Fengyun returned to his hometown and grew old.
The couplet hanging in the study was exactly what he wrote, in order to always remember the bad-hearted prime minister of the court. He would not do anything, but he would only frame the loyal and kind-hearted.
Originally, he didn't expect anyone to match his first couplet, but when Zhao Guangren came back and told him that someone had matched the first couplet.
The second couplet perfectly commented on his life.
He served his country loyally throughout his life, and the demons on the battlefield were frightened.
Isn’t it normal for all the people to cry and stay with such a brave general?
But the court at that time was too dark, which made their hearts feel sad.
He has a great responsibility for losing the battlefield, but in most cases, it is common for victory or defeat on the battlefield.
What he blamed was that if the army could be pushed out of Loulan in one fell swoop, now he would be able to hold the throat of the demon seed. If the demon seed wants to enter the East, he would have to go through the battle of Loulan.
As long as Loulan sticks to it, the eastern land will be as stable as Mount Tai.
Unfortunately... the slander of some incompetent high-ranking officials not only lost their official hat, but also carried the charge of leading the army to death.
Zhao Fengyun never hated anyone in his life, but hated that he had not directly led his troops to take down Loulan. If he had firmly firmly at that time and ignored Emperor Gaozong's orders, the Tang Dynasty would have become stronger now because of him, Zhao Fengyun.
Unfortunately... everything has passed, and in the end he can only regain his old career and return to his scholarly children.
He was carrying a sword on the battlefield back then, but now he can only write to recall the past.
Li Bai's second couplet aroused the heartstring deep in his heart, and his passion burned again.
Zhao Fengyun came to Li Bai this time to ask if Li Bai was interested in overthrowing Gao Yao like them, and not let Gao Yao disturb the Chaogang again.
Zhao Fengyun looked up and down at Li Bai for a long time and asked, "Did you have a holiday with Gao Changgong?"
"What do you mean by senior?" Li Bai asked pretending not to know.
"Haha, in Jiangling, what can I hide from me? Although I have already taken off my armor and returned to the country, I still see the affairs of the world."
"As the king of the northwest, Gao Changgong holds great power. He has done a lot of things over the years, and some things have not taken the court's attention at all."
"He has some ideas that are completely normal, but you are very talented. Isn't it normal for him to win you over and make a big deal together?"
Li Bai shook his head and said, "Senior, I don't know what you said."
"It's good to know it. If you don't want to admit it, I don't force you to admit it."
"But he monitored you, proving that you should know some of his things, so in order to ensure your safety, I think you should leave here first!"
"Why should the old general help me?" Li Bai looked at Zhao Fengyun in confusion and asked.
Zhao Fengyun smiled and said, "Because I am optimistic about you, I think your future is unlimited, so I will help you."
"Senior mean...what I might want to help you in the future?" Li Bai asked curiously.
"That's right, I want you to overthrow Gao Yao. If Gao Yao is here, don't think about peace in the Tang Dynasty."
"What did he do?" Li Bai asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fengyun began to tell what Gao Yao had done back then.
After hearing this, Li Bai frowned.
He asked Li Bai, "You said that you would not let you lead troops to station in Loulan, because Gao wanted to join Cambodia Gaozong?"
"That's right, if it weren't for this unscrupulous prime minister who could only talk about war on paper, I wouldn't have had to suffer for so many years."
"You never know how strong the courage a person who survived from the battlefield must have to lick his wounds silently under the guidance of thousands of people."
"I have to avenge this revenge no matter how hard you are, but you are my best helper to avenge you."
"Because sooner or later you will become a person in the court. With your talent, it is not a problem to continue in the court."
"And my idea is to use your power to defeat him and give me Zhao Fengyun a cleansing innocence."
Li Bai took a deep breath when he heard this and said, "Don't worry! Mr. Zhao, if there was no Gao, I wouldn't be so angry if I had no choice but to stop you from helping Loulan."
"But he ignores us Loulan, I will not let him go. Sooner or later, I will let you return to the army openly and take charge of the army and become a general in one place."
"As long as I, Li Bai, are alive, I will definitely help you."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Fengyun nodded and said, "From your couplet, I have seen what kind of person you are, so I will look for you without hesitation."
"Then you are in danger in Jiangling now. What are your plans?"
Li Bai said: "I originally wanted to go to Chang'an because I did have something unpleasant to Gao Changgong here."
"But now... I have another thing to do, that is... go to Loulan."
"What are you doing in Loulan at this time? You are undoubtedly looking for death..." Zhao Fengyun said in a deep voice.
"No matter whether you are seeking death or not, there are some things that you should do or do. Obviously... Going to Loulan is what I should do. Is there any way for Mr. Zhao to get me out of Jiangling?"
"There is no way, but..."
"Old Zhao... I'm determined, don't worry, I must go."
"Is it... as rumored, you are actually the only direct descendant of the ancient Loulan clan and the Muzi royal family?"
