Liaozhai Great Sage

"You, how dare you? This is the imperial city. What you do is tantamount to rebellion, and you will be punished." The forbidden soldier who stopped him said in shock.

No one in the capital has ever dared to kill someone in front of the gate of the imperial city.

Li Xiuyuan smiled, but said nothing, just led Han Meng and Wu Xiang to continue walking forward.

If you continue to entangle with these forbidden soldiers, you will be the one who suffers in the end. Instead of this, it is better to take a gamble and see if these forbidden soldiers dare to do something.

Seeing Li Xiuyuan's decisive attitude.

The two imperial guards also panicked.

The person behind asked: "What should I do, should I block it or not?"

Cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, because they knew in their hearts that the person in front of them was a serious court minister, who came with an imperial decree, and it was impossible to stop him, but if he didn't stop him, Master Yang couldn't explain it.

In the end, until Li Xiuyuan led the people past, none of the imperial guards made a move to stop them, and the two leaders were sweating profusely without saying a word.

Because if something goes wrong, they can't afford the consequences.

Assassinating the governor of Yangzhou and framing the Wutong Sect demon, this is going to be ransacked and exterminated.

"The eldest young master is so bold, he scares away those forbidden troops who made things difficult for us with just a few words." After entering the imperial city, Han Meng said with admiration.

"Games in the officialdom are all about measure. They stopped us because it was within their measure. It's best to stop it. If you can't stop it, let it go. It doesn't hurt anyway. The most important thing is to delay time and delay our first If a court meeting is used by someone with a heart, I am afraid that the reward will be withdrawn, so this is a trap."

"And such a trap cannot be set up by an old fox who is not an official. It can be exchanged for the greatest gain at the smallest cost."

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "If you want to break the situation, the most important thing is to see clearly the intention behind it, and you have to be tough."

"I am the governor of a party, with the merits of quelling chaos, and the imperial edict of the imperial court, a few forbidden soldiers stop me, should I be guilty, or should they be guilty?"

Han Meng suddenly said; "Those forbidden soldiers are scaring us?"

"Oh, yes, with the back of the imperial city, you want to scare me, do you really think I'm young and easy to bully?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"But young master, what if they really blocked you just now?" Han Meng said.

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said, "Then why don't you ask, what would happen to them if they weren't at the foot of the imperial city?"

Han Meng's heart shuddered, and he naturally understood the meaning of the young master's words.

If they were not in the imperial city, they would definitely be beheaded if they dared to stop them.

But when he walked down the jade steps of a large hall, he looked up and saw an old man in a purple official uniform looking at him with a cold face.

"Is this person the father of the envoy Yang who was killed by me in Jinling City, Master Yang of Zhongshu Province?" Li Xiuyuan felt a wave of hostility.

Not the eyes of political enemies, but a kind of hatred and resentment.

The person he offended the most in the capital was Mr. Yang, so even if others didn't tell him, he knew the identity of this old man.

"You are young, there is still a long way to go, there are many steps, be careful of falling." Master Yang stood in front of the hall and looked down at Li Xiuyuan, and said lightly.

Li Xiuyuan smiled disapprovingly and said: "It's not as experienced as this lord, as soon as we met, this lord went to the end, this is the first time I come to attend the court meeting, I should not be used to this step, be careful not to fall. "

"I heard that Li Inspector Li's battle against the Nine Mountain Kings in Jinling City was very exciting. He fought hundreds of thousands of bandits with tens of thousands of bandits, and defeated many with less. This is really admirable to the old man. It's just that the battlefield is dangerous, and Li Inspector Shi can't take it lightly. ” Yang Daren said.

"Thank you for reminding me, my lord. This lord is so kind. Would you like to ask this lord for his name? I'll visit you some other day, and thank you for your kindness." Li Xiuyuan said.

Master Yang said, "Hmph, as long as this old man knows about you."

After speaking, he turned around and left without leaving a name.

"Is this a battle post?"

Li Xiuyuan's eyes moved, and after walking the last step, he saw hundreds of officials gathered in the Zichen Hall, talking about their own affairs, but after Mr. Yang passed by, he was frequently bowed and saluted by the surrounding officials.

From this, it can be seen that Lord Yang's identity and status above the court.

Of course, when he came here, no one was close to him, and they were all afraid of avoiding him like a god of plague.

"Ok?"

Suddenly, he smelled a different kind of breath.

"Young Master Li." A court official smiled and saluted respectfully.

"Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, Du Wen." Li Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

It's just that the Du Wen in front of him is no longer the real Du Wen, but a monster covered in human skin.

Tao Dai Li Zhuang, it really looks like that, mixed among all the officials, you can't see it at all.

"Master Du is okay today? I wonder if the fire a few days ago reached Lord Du's house?" Li Xiuyuan's attitude towards him was not friendly.

The other officials are human beings at any rate, but they are a poisonous centipede.

Du Wen said with a smile: "Everything is fine in the house, thanks to Mr. Li, but you have seen the attitude of those adults, Mr. Li. They don't want to see Mr. Li. The national teacher regards Mr. Li as a confidant. If Mr. Li doesn't believe it , we will know later at the court meeting."

"Oh. What does the national teacher want to get?" Li Xiuyuan asked.

Chapter 7 and Eight

Du Wen, the servant of the Ministry of Punishments, didn't elaborate, just smiled and gave a salute before leaving.

A servant was so respectful to Li Xiuyuan.

This attitude attracted the attention of many officials, but the time for the court meeting was coming soon, and everyone had to communicate with each other and discuss the fire in the capital during the Shangyuan Festival a few days ago, so they didn't think much about it.

Li Xiuyuan has not reported his duties yet, according to the rules, he cannot directly participate in the court meeting, and needs to wait for Zhao Guan's summoning.

So he took Han Meng and Wu Xiang to wait in the side hall.

Soon, with the ringing of the golden bell, today's court meeting began.

With the help of the eunuch, Zhao Guanjia, who was slightly fat and had a somewhat flimsy footsteps, came out from the side of the Zichen Hall. Although he was wearing a royal robe and a crown of heaven, he looked a bit majestic like an emperor, but his spirit was really strong. It's hard to see how this official Zhao's family looks like an emperor.

Rather than being an emperor, he is more like a frail literati.

"My lord, I pay my respects to the officials." All the ministers bowed down to salute.

Officials of the Song Dynasty did not need to kneel when they met the emperor, because kneeling was the etiquette of Wu Zetian in the Zhou Dynasty, and the Zhou Dynasty was not orthodox, so it was not accepted by the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Guanjia sat on the dragon chair and gave a little support; "All lovers are welcome."

"Thank you."

All the civil servants had just finished their salutes, and one civil servant couldn't wait to stand up and said: "Officials, I have a book to play."
