" Aiya, brother, why are we back to that topic again? Besides the current Emperor, who else would dare to kill the Imperial Concubine…" Wang Daniu clicked his tongue, indicating that it was impossible.
"What if the emperor really wants the imperial consort to die?”Wu Tianlang guided Wang Daniu.
Wang Daniu laughed." How is that possible?! I've heard that the current Emperor dotes on the Imperial Concubine so much, so why would he want her to die? I heard that the Emperor rebuilt the Huaqing Pool for the Imperial Concubine. Every year, he even sends lychees from the south for her to eat! The Emperor doted on the Imperial Concubine so much, how could he harm her?”
" Brother Bull," Wu Tianlang asked again," did you just say that we have to report to Lord Chen Xuanli? That way, we can still receive rewards?"”
Wang Daniu nodded." That's right. The earlier we report, the better. If we're late, it'll be hard to say. They might even punish us for fleeing…"
"Then what are you going to say to General Chen?”Wu Tianlang asked.
Wang Daniu pondered for a moment and said,"" I'll just say that Crown Prince Li Heng borrowed 2,000 soldiers from the Imperial Army, but he sent us to fight with An Lushan's tens of thousands of cavalrymen. In the end, we lost almost all of them, but Crown Prince Li Heng's main force did not move. This is obviously to weaken our Imperial Army and use the Hu soldiers to destroy us…"
"And then?"
" Then, I can remind General Chen if he should have an audience with the Emperor and say that the Crown Prince wants to rebel and usurp the throne…" Wang Daniu said as he thought about it.
Wu Tianlang laughed out loud." My dear brother, if that's the case, I reckon that your head will fall to the ground before you can even finish your sentence!”
"How could that be? I risked my life to come back and report this. This is an urgent military situation!”Wang Daniu didn't believe him." Could it be that General Chen thinks that I'm spouting nonsense?”
It was time to reveal the mystery!
Wu Tianlang reached out and gently patted Wang Daniu's shoulder.""Big Brother Bull, what if General Chen is in cahoots with Crown Prince Li Heng?”
"Are they in cahoots?" Wang Daniu pondered over the meaning of this sentence. Suddenly, his body trembled, and even the beard at the corner of his mouth stood up!
Wang Daniu shook his head." That's impossible, right? General Chen was the Grand General Long Wu and had followed the Emperor for decades. He was highly regarded by the Emperor, so how could he follow the Crown Prince to mess with the Emperor? This is impossible!"
" If it was in the past, he might not have done this. But now, it's a critical period. In critical times, you can't use normal thinking to think about problems," Wu Tianlang said.
"How-how did you know, brother? After thinking about it, I suddenly feel that what you said makes sense!”Wang Daniu pondered over Wu Tianlang's words and nodded.
Wu Tianlang really didn't know how to explain to Wang Daniu. He couldn't possibly tell Wang Daniu that he had transmigrated over 1,000 years in the future and that he knew the ins and outs of this matter. Therefore, it was definitely not wrong to listen to Wang Daniu.
If that was the case, not only would this honest fatty not believe him, he would even think that he was a lunatic. Why did he have to do that?
Suddenly, Wu Tianlang had an idea. He cleared his throat and said solemnly,""Actually, Big Brother Bull, I'm not talented. I usually like divinations, so I have some foresight about some things..."
"I really couldn't tell that you knew how to read fortunes? Brother, tell me, did you just make up that General Chen was with Crown Prince Li Heng? No, did you calculate it?”Wang Daniu asked with a smile.
Wu Tianlang could tell that the other party did not believe him, but he had no choice. He could only hide his identity as a transmigrator under the cover of divination.
"Brother Bull, don't doubt it!" Wu Tianlang continued. When I went out to relieve myself last night, a bright meteor streaked across the northwest night sky. I took a closer look and saw that the stars were abnormal. Something big is going to happen soon…"
Seeing that Wu Tianlang was making sense, Wang Daniu's smile gradually disappeared and he became serious." Brother, you're making it sound so convincing. Isn't this the louse on a bald man's head? It's obvious!" Didn't big things happen every day recently? Ever since An Lushan and Fan Yang raised their troops, they have never stopped…"
Wu Tianlang shook his head." Brother Bull, compared to what's about to happen, what you said isn't a big deal!”
Seeing Wu Tianlang's serious expression, Wang Daniu asked,""Alright, brother. Tell me, according to your calculations, what major events will happen in the near future?”
Wu Tianlang's expression was solemn as he said," Meteors are flying in the sky, and the stars are changing. This is the rhythm of a change in the sky! That's why I used the Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes to deduce that something big would happen here…"
"Brother, tell me what's the big deal! I'm so anxious!" Wang Daniu stroked his messy beard and urged Wu Tianlang to quickly tell him the answer.
Wu Tianlang paused for a moment and said,"" The major event that is about to happen is that Long Wu's Great General, Chen Xuanli, colluded with Crown Prince Li Heng to kill Prime Minister Yang Guozhong, forcing the Emperor to abdicate, and then ordering Imperial Consort Yang to die…"
"Ah?" Wang Daniu was shocked.
"Brother, you can't say that! Fortunately, there were no outsiders. Otherwise, if anyone heard it, they would be beheaded!”Wang Daniu said with a trembling voice.
Wu Tianlang smiled, thinking that he had at least made up the story. Thinking about it, he really admired his ability to make up stories." I didn't say that. I just analyzed the things in the divination!”
Wang Daniu pondered over Wu Tianlang's words.
" Although the plot is a bit melodramatic, it's still reasonable," Wang Daniu muttered." Crown Prince Li Heng now holds military power and is already a real figure in the Tang Empire. After Prime Minister Yang Guozhong left Chang 'an, he lost his power. He only held the title of Prime Minister and only wanted to escape to Shuzhou with the Emperor. Moreover, Crown Prince Li Heng and Yang Guozhong have always been at odds. When General Chen was in Chang' an, he was still in a bad mood. He was also ostracized by Yang Guozhong. If that's the case, our General Chen-"
"You don't have to think about it. How can the heavens be wrong? I deduced this according to heaven's will, there's no mistake!”Wu Tianlang said.
"Sounds reasonable!" Wang Daniu nodded." Thank goodness you reminded me! If that's the case, the moment we report this to General Chen will be the day we die! He'll definitely kill her!"
When he thought of this, Wang Daniu stuck out his tongue in shock.
Wu Tianlang heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Wang Daniu had agreed with him. At least there was finally someone in this world who could stand on the same side as him!
" However…" Wang Daniu blinked his innocent eyes and asked,""Brother, as far as I know, the emperor has a few Taoist priests with very deep cultivation. How could they not see through the heavenly secrets?”
This stumped Wu Tianlang. He had already covered up this lie, but why was Wang Daniu suspicious again?
Wu Tianlang's head was buzzing. He was already in a mess after transmigrating to this Chaotic Tang. Now, he had to think of a way to make up a lie. It was really difficult!
Wu Tianlang really wanted to reveal his identity as a transmigrator and lay his cards on the table with Wang Daniu. This was the situation! Believe it or not! I'm a transmigrator with a halo. Wang Daniu, follow me and I'll guarantee you endless glory and wealth!
However, this was just a thought! If he were to reveal his identity, it would only make things more chaotic! Therefore, he had to hide his true identity from Wang Daniu.
Thinking of this, Wu Tianlang said," Hehe, Brother Bull, most of the Daoists are just playing to the gallery. In fact, those who are truly capable are all hidden in the mountains. I only managed to get a glimpse of the first-line heavenly secrets by chance. Don't doubt it!”
"Then what should we do now?" Wang Daniu asked Wu Tianlang.
"What should we do?" asked Wu Tianlang. First of all, you can't report to Chen Xuanli, so you won't get your reward, even though we've worked so hard to get here.”
"Aiya! Brother, it's all your fault! If you didn't remind us, we would have lost our lives. How could we talk about rewards?”Wang Daniu sighed.
Then, Wang Daniu asked with a solemn expression,""However, if it's really like what you said, we can't just stand by and watch! Shouldn't we do something?"
When Wang Daniu said this, his eyes flashed with a stubborn light.
This sentence was exactly what Wu Tianlang wanted!
" Brother Bull, tell me what you want to do," Wu Tianlang asked.
" Sigh, I'm just a soldier. There are some things that I can only think about. Actually, I can't do much…" As Wang Daniu spoke, his eyes dimmed again.
"Do you want to protect the emperor? To prevent Crown Prince Li Heng's scheme from succeeding?”Wu Tianlang asked.
" This…" Wang Daniu thought about it." Actually, it doesn't matter to us who becomes the Emperor. It's all the same! But what you said just now-"
" I didn't say it, I deduced it!" Wu Tianlang quickly corrected himself!
"Uh, I'm sorry. Just now, you deduced that the Imperial Consort was given a death sentence. This is really regrettable. These people are really cruel. How could such a beautiful beauty be so ruthless?”
Wu Tianlang looked at Wang Daniu's sad face and said,""According to my deduction, it was the soldiers who rebelled and forced the Emperor. The Emperor had no choice but to use Gao Lishi to strangle Yang Guifei with a white silk to protect himself.”
"Sigh! Since ancient times, where has true love existed? It's all because of idiots!" Wang Daniu sighed.
"Brother Bull, did you just say a poem? It seemed that Big Brother Daniu was also a well-read person!”Wu Tianlang laughed.
"Sigh, brother must be joking! Wasn't that line from Li Taibai's poem? Everyone in the Great Tang knows how to do it, from ninety-nine to just walking. There's no one who can't carry it!”Wang Daniu said with a smile.
"Li Taibai wrote it? I really haven't heard of it!"
"No way, you don't even know Li Taibai? If you don't even know such a famous person, others will say that you're not from this world! Li Taibai, this person is really awesome! That Gao Lishi you mentioned just now, he even helped him take off his shoes, and Noble Consort Yang even grinded them for him! Isn't it amazing?"
When Wu Tianlang heard Wang Daniu's words, he thought to himself, You guessed right. I really am not from your world. I woke up in your Great Tang.
At the mention of Li Bai, Wu Tianlang thought that there were still many big shots in the era he had transmigrated to. Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Zhihuan, Wang Weihao, Wang Changling, they seemed to be poets of this era. If he really could not return to the world before he transmigrated, he could chat with them to relieve his boredom.
" Brother, I think we should do something…" Wang Daniu suddenly said.
"Brother Bull, what do you want to do?”Wu Tianlang was very excited, but he still pretended to be calm.
Wang Daniu looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and said leisurely,""The human heart is sinister and the world is unpredictable. I have decided to throw away my helmet and armor and go find my Youngest Biao Sister!”
What? Wu Tianlang did not expect this. It was easier to shake a mountain than a heart!
He had tried his best to guide him, but Wang Daniu's brain was still not enlightened!
Wu Tianlang was very sad, very sad…
