And the reason they stayed in Luoyang was equally simple.
It was naturally because of the Battle of Talas and the sudden rebellion of the Gelulu, which led to Gao Xianzhi's defeat.
Although the developments were not entirely the same as the original history, Gao Xianzhi was similarly punished by Li Longji, relieved of his position as Jiedu Envoy of Anxi's four towns, and recalled to the capital to serve as the Grand General of the Right Golden Spear Guard.
The same was true for Feng Changqing.
Both of them had real skills, especially Feng Changqing, who was often considered a backdrop to Gao Xianzhi. His current military excellence resembled that of the Gu Clan.
He was even much stronger than he was in original history.
The same could be said for Gao Xianzhi.
Although he could not escape his "greedy" nature, Gu Yi used to care about such things, but now he had completely let it go.
Human nature is such that no one can be immune.
