Chapter 960 Give way, thank you!

Looking at Yun Ye's anxious departure, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but smile lightly.

Indeed, in this era, it was a beheading matter to obtain the imperial seal before the current emperor.

Unless the person who gets the imperial seal is a domestic slave like Hong Cheng who is deeply trusted by the emperor, or someone like Yun Ye who has absolutely no possibility of rebellion.

However, Lin Zhongtian is not a mortal after all. He is the Lord of the Void Gap and the Great Emperor Zhongtian Ziwei.

His high status is beyond imagination.

Only when the jade seal of the state passes through his hands can it truly be said to have been ordered by heaven and live a long and prosperous life.

Lin Zhongtian's acquisition of the Imperial Seal was not only a whim, but also a test for Li Er.

If Li Er can survive, then everything is easy to say. At least during his tenure, the fortune of the Tang Dynasty will only flourish.

But if Li Er is holding a grudge and wants to get rid of him quickly, it means that he is not worthy of taking over the imperial seal from Lin Zhongtian, and the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty will decline as a result.

At that time, Lin Zhongtian will add fuel to the fire and let the Yun family take over, or simply light a spark and raise the red flag.

Anyway, the Alliance has done things like this countless times in all the worlds, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that they are very familiar with it.

Not long after, Hong Cheng came over with hundreds of soldiers with murderous intent.

He ordered many soldiers armed to the teeth to surround the tent, and then he and Yun Ye entered the tent together.

As soon as he walked into the tent, Hong Cheng's eyes were completely attracted by the open wooden box on the table.

He swallowed, stretched his right hand tremblingly into his arms, and took out an old piece of paper.

Lin Zhongtian glanced at it and found that there was a mark on the paper, which should be the pattern of the imperial seal preserved in the palace.

Hong Cheng stepped forward, spread the paper on the table, respectfully held up the jade seal with both hands, pointed it at the mark, and pressed it slowly.

Perfect fit!

Only then did Hong Cheng finally breathe a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat off his forehead, put the jade seal back into the wooden box, turned around, looked at Yun Ye and Lin Zhongtian in the tent, and said in a solemn tone: "Forget it ”

Yun Ye smiled and said: "Old Hong, why can't I understand what you are saying?"

A smile appeared on Hong Cheng's face, then he took out a piece of silk, wrapped the wooden box in layers, and tied it to his body. It seemed that he did not intend to let the Jade Seal of the Kingdom leave him for a moment.

After doing this, Hong Cheng turned around without hesitation and walked out of the tent.

Yun Ye looked at his back and said quickly: "My senior brother's matter..."

Hong Cheng said without looking back: "Even if Marquis Yun doesn't say anything, Brother Lin will follow me back to Chang'an."

"For the sake of the meritorious service of the two positions in Baiqisi, I can say a few good words for Brother Lin in front of His Majesty, but I will never hide the truth in front of His Majesty. I hope Marquis Yun will forgive me."

Before Yun Ye could speak, Lin Zhongtian nodded and said with a smile: "That's enough."

When Hong Cheng led hundreds of soldiers to leave in a hurry, Yun Ye patted his head and said angrily: "I'm so sloppy. It's all my fault. If I had known better, I would have put the Imperial Seal back first and let Hong Cheng get away from Kang Sumi." Get it.”

"This way, we brothers won't have to suffer from the bad luck of this jade seal..."

Lin Zhongtian glanced at him and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier if you had such an idea?"

Yun Ye said angrily: "It's not you. You suddenly took out such a thing. It scared me so much that I panicked. How could I remember to think about it in the long term?"

Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, it's just that he is remembered by Li Er. With his magnanimity, he won't care about anything. If he really cares about it, I will go to the palace at night and talk to him!"

Yun Ye was shocked and said quickly: "No, please don't!"

Lin Zhongtian laughed loudly: "It's just a joke, don't be nervous."

As he said this, he turned to look outside the tent, thinking that Li Er had passed this test, and the remaining tests depended on Li Er's own good fortune.

…

…

Another day, snow fell in the middle of the night, and the auxiliary soldiers in the camp were clearing away the snow everywhere.

Suddenly, at the end of the snow outside the camp, red feathers appeared in the distance.

Immediately afterwards, a fully armored Hong Ling messenger stumbled back on horseback.

Before he reached the gate of the camp, he opened his hoarse throat and shouted excitedly: "Great victory, great victory!"

"Our army beheaded 30,000 people and captured 100,000 people. Jieli is on the run!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire military camp exploded like an ant nest poured with boiling water.

The camp officials quickly welcomed the courier in, took off the cowhide mailbox from the exhausted soldier, and after checking that the lacquer seal was intact, handed the cowhide mailbox to the courier who had been ready to go.

Six messengers and twelve horses rushed non-stop towards Chang'an in a cloud of dust.

At the same time, Hongcheng and Baiqisi's thousand elite cavalry were already ready and ready to go.

Lin Zhongtian took the family letter and the jade pendant for identity verification from Yun Ye, gave Yun Ye a reassuring look, and then rushed towards Chang'an with a thousand fine cavalry led by Hong Cheng.

Before leaving, Lin Zhongtian gave Yun Ye two more boxes of bullets for self-protection.

On the way home, Lin Zhongtian wandered away from Baiqisi. Although the war horse under his crotch belonged to Baiqisi, but by his side, it was as if he had taken some Shiquan Dabu pill. Both his leg strength and physical strength had greatly increased. .

If the style of painting on the side of the messenger and Baiqisi is to rush forward, it is extremely urgent.

So on Lin Zhongtian's side, there is a highlight for sightseeing and leisurely strolling.

Regarding this situation, Hong Cheng and the cavalry of Baiqisi saw it in their eyes, but no one dared to say no.

They were all soldiers on horseback, and they were convinced by Lin Zhongtian's ability to control horses.

If the current situation wasn't urgent, even Hong Cheng would want to ask Lin Zhongtian for advice on how to control a horse.

In this way, the group of people rushed to Chang'an at the fastest speed in this era, almost without touching the ground.

…

The movement caused by a thousand cavalrymen galloping wildly was naturally extremely shocking.

Therefore, before the cavalry could approach Chang'an, the city was already alerted.

The level of guards in the palace was immediately raised by two levels. The guards in Chang'an City were also warned, and the number of sergeants at the top of the city was doubled.

However, even though the city was filled with densely packed sergeants, the former cavalry still did not slow down, and the dust raised on the horizon could already be clearly distinguished at the city of Chang'an.

This is something Chang'an City cannot bear.

As a result, the trumpet sounded over Chang'an, and the soldiers in the camp poured out in an orderly manner like ants emerging from the nest.

Yuchi Gong, fully clothed and holding a horse spear, came to the city head and looked forward murderously, wondering who was so bold as to dare to gallop outside the city of Chang'an.

At this moment, he saw the bright red helmet feathers in front of the cavalry, which was the leading Hong Ling envoy.

Yuchi Gong was startled for a moment, then reacted immediately, ordered the city gate to be opened, and stood in front of the city gate with thousands of hurried cavalry, waiting for the arrival of Hong Ling's envoy.

There were only a thousand cavalry, and even if they were deceitful, he was confident that he could kill them all when the city gate was wide open.

Fortunately, the worst did not happen. Before Hongling's envoy could get close, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Great victory, great victory, great victory at Yinshan. Our army has won a great victory. We killed 20,000 Turks and captured countless others!"

After saying that, Hong Ling ignored Yuchi Gong and rode past him.

Hearing the news of the great victory at Yinshan, Yu Chigong smiled on his face and did not care at all about the rudeness of Hong Ling's envoy.

However, the more than a thousand cavalrymen who came later made him feel a little unhappy.

It's just Hong Ling's urgent envoy. As long as the emperor doesn't come in person, these guys don't need to give face to anyone.

But the cavalry behind them were obviously Baiqisi's men. Even though Hong Ling's urgent envoy had already arrived at Chang'an City, they dared to rush straight to the city gate. This made Yuchi Gong extremely unhappy.

Just when Yuchi Gong was wondering whether to stop these more than a thousand cavalry, he suddenly saw Hongcheng in the front.

As Li Er's stable boy, Hong Cheng could be regarded as the emperor's domestic slave, and his loyalty to the emperor was naturally unquestionable.

He didn't even stop attacking the city gate, which meant that apart from the news of the victory at Yinshan, this Baiqisi team also had other urgent matters.

Thinking of this, Yuchi Gong waved his hand, and the cavalry behind him immediately retreated along the city wall like a tide and got out of the way.

However, Yuchi Gong himself stayed at the door, standing proudly on his horse without taking a step back.

Countless cavalrymen ran in front of him, but Yuchi Gong remained calm. This was his duty as a gatekeeper general. No matter what the situation, he had to live and die with the city gate.

"Give way, thank you!"

Perhaps seeing Yuchi Gong standing in the center, some people were worried that he would be crushed to pieces by the cavalry. A polite voice suddenly came from the side, followed immediately by a slender and powerful arm.

Yuchi Gong was stunned for a moment, only to see that hand grabbing the saddle under his crotch and gently swinging it to the side.

"Xilulu——"

The Wuzui horse neighed in panic.

Yuchi Gong's eyes widened, and before he could react, he discovered with a bewildered expression that he and his horse were flying high into the sky, leaping over the heads of many cavalry, and landing on the ground ten steps away.

"Tap-ta-"

After Wu Zima landed, he staggered a few steps and steadied himself.

Yuchi Gong held the gun in one hand and calmed Wu Zhuima's mood, then his eyes widened, and he looked at the torrent of cavalry whizzing by in front of him in surprise amid the thunderous cheers that rang out in Chang'an City.

"……who is it?!"
