Great Tang Southern Emperor

Chapter 89 Rage Boiling

"So, all of this was caused by a wrong conclusion?" Li Zhen understood what Liu Jingshan meant: "Now that the strength of the Boys' Army has been revealed, some of the forces they supported directly touched a boy in front of the Boys' Army." The blood was dripping with blood, and even the core figures were arrested, and the losses were heavy."

The so-called core person was Mu Tiancheng. After three days of exhausting interrogation, this guy finally couldn't stand it anymore and confessed everything about him.Surprisingly, he turned out to be the third person in charge of the Blood League's operation in Lingnan, and the core figure of the Blood League.Li Zhen didn't expect Starscream to catch such a big fish and get a lot of useful information from him in just a random move. It was really a surprise.

"Exactly." Liu Jingshan said with a smile.

Li Zhen breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I'm relieved, I thought there was some conspiracy in the blood alliance. But I always feel that something is wrong."

"No, they really have a conspiracy." Liu Jingshan said sternly: "The Blood Alliance has invested so much effort in Lingnan, not only did not achieve the expected results, but suffered heavy losses, it was a big joke. How can you let them swallow this breath? The old man estimates that they will show their fangs in a short time, His Highness must be on guard."

Li Zhen hurriedly asked for advice: "Then what do you think they will do?"

Liu Jingshan glanced at him: "Since it doesn't work internally, we should find a way from the outside. Has Your Highness received any information about a foreign country in the past few days?"

"Abnormal information from foreign countries." Li Zhen lowered her head in thought, a flash of light suddenly flashed in her mind, and there was indeed a piece of information related to it, and then she was shocked: "No, Huanzhou is in danger."

As soon as Li Zhen said this, Du He rushed in in a panic, crying, "Your Highness, it's not good, Lin Yi and Baitou Kingdom gathered an army of [-] to attack Huanzhou, the governor of Huanzhou Without investigation for a while, Anren County was captured in one fell swoop, and the city was massacred. Poor Anren County's [-] people were all killed, and the city was full of corpses.

The thieves were still dissatisfied after slaughtering the city, and now they are storming Xiangjing County.Rescue from surrounding prefectures and counties has been rushed to the past, but it is a drop in the bucket. If you want to completely repel the enemy, you must send troops from the Lingnan Road Army Chief. , Revenge. "

Tears flowed as he spoke. Although he didn’t see it with his own eyes, he could imagine the tragedy of Anren County from the messenger’s description. After the grief, there was endless anger——Da Tang’s journey from exterminating the Turks to Now, I have never suffered such a big loss, this time I must take revenge.

Without Du He's persuasion, Li Zhen completely lost control after hearing the news that Anren County was massacred. The killing intent welled up in her heart, her eyes were bloodshot, and she looked up to the sky and roared: "Linyi, Baitou, you should die~"

"Du He, send an order immediately. Except for the Iron Blood Battalion, all the Changsheng Battalion, Raging Wave Battalion, Trapped Battalion, and Desperate Battalion are all dispatched. This time, I will go to the rescue myself. The people of the two countries, I will be the prince of the Tang Dynasty in vain~" Although the killing intent was boiling and the appearance seemed crazy, Li Zhen still retained three points of reason: "Inform Liu Hongji and let him immediately draft an order to send troops. The identity of the king is presented to the imperial court. The two countries of Linyi and Baitou refuse to accept the king's transformation. They are afraid of power but not virtuous. Now they invade the territory of our Tang Dynasty and massacre the people of our Tang Dynasty. Qiu Ye is ready to personally lead the army to wipe out the two countries and punish them severely."

"Yes." Du He finished recording the order: "Your Highness, please let Du He follow along this time."

Li Zhen nodded and said, "Don't worry, let's go together and avenge the people of Tang Dynasty."

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Sir, you already know the matter, the student will leave now." Li Zhen saluted Liu Jingshan: "Just here, sir, please take care of him for a while."

"Hey, Your Highness, let's go, I will leave this place to the old man." Liu Jingshan nodded, and persuaded: "But, please remember, Your Highness, please abide by your heart when necessary, and don't be dazed by anger. mind."

"My mind is very sober now, unprecedentedly sober." Li Zhen sternly said: "If the mere blood alliance thinks that such a small matter can influence my mind, then they will underestimate me too much."

"It's good for your Highness to remember this, it's getting late, your highness should go quickly."

"Student farewell."

On Li Zhen's side, he was overwhelmed by the sudden incident, but on the other side, there were people enjoying watching the drama.

"What did I say? This Mr. Wu is really powerful, but with a little trick, Li Zhen was tossed like a dog."

"Great, we are relieved that Li Zhen is gone."

"Didn't he want to check us? Everyone else has left, how can he check?"

Some people worried: "But what if he can come back? Wouldn't he have to settle accounts after the fall?"

Immediately, someone disdainfully said: "Then he must come back alive. Do you really think the rainforest is just a forest?"

Others hurriedly added: "That's the real cannibalism. If someone who is not familiar with the environment goes in, go look for it in three days. What you find will definitely be a pile of bones."

"And what if he comes back?" Someone sneered and said, "As the king of Yue today, Li Zhen is not allowed to leave the fief easily without an edict. This is the rule. But now he not only left Yuezhou, but also led the army. Fighting a war is a big taboo, as long as we hand over the list, do you think they can come back?"

"Hahaha"

"Bang!"

A few high-ranking officials from Yuezhou were gathering, and wanted to see Li Zhen's excitement, when suddenly there was a loud noise, and the closed gate was kicked away, and flew in sideways, almost hitting someone.

At that time, a senior official shouted angrily: "Who are you? How dare you be rude in front of this old man? Do you know who we are?"

"Of course I know, I'm here to look for you. Hmph, Li Ergou, the leader of the guards under His Highness the King of Yue, has met all of you." Li Ergou walked in with a smile on his face, and saluted casually. , took out a paper order from his sleeve: "I have been ordered by the inspector to inspect the governor of Yuezhou, the governor of Yuezhou, the road patrol envoy of Datang Lingnan, the appeasement envoy of Datang Lingnan, and the order of His Royal Highness: There are aliens invading Datang. Some thieves took advantage of the situation to create chaos and carry out the assassination. In order to protect everyone's safety, the guard Li Ergou was specially ordered to lead troops to protect him. Li Ergou is smart, wise, brave, and has followed the king for many years. He is loyal and absolutely I am not a spy, please rest assured, as for your duties, this king will have someone to take over, please rest assured."

Chapter 314 'Protect'

Chapter 90 'Protect' Up

"What do you mean?" Someone was confused by the half-literate classical Chinese, and didn't react for a while.

"It means literally." Li Ergou squinted at the crowd full of fat, the disgust in his eyes could not be lingered, and said coldly: "Your Highness clearly stated in the order that the two countries Linyi and Baitou invaded. In Huanzhou of the Tang Dynasty, these two countries are very ferocious, and it is very likely that they will infiltrate Yuezhou City to assassinate your lords to cause chaos. Therefore, for the safety of your lords, I specially sent Li Ergou, who is my general, to lead people to protect your lords. "Get up, and wait until the end of the war. I am very smart and have high martial arts skills. I have been with His Highness for ten years. There is absolutely no problem with my loyalty. Under my protection, you can rest assured that there will be no danger at all." .”

"" Someone opened his mouth to speak, but was blocked by Li Ergou's next words: "His Royal Highness knows that all of you are law-abiding and hardworking. , I was exhausted, I was exhausted, I was dying, and I was so tired that I didn’t even have time to visit His Royal Highness. After hearing this, His Highness was very distressed, and praised you as role models for officials, and specially issued an order to let you take advantage of this time to take a good rest. .

However, my lord, please rest assured that after you are protected, there will be no chaos in Yuezhou's government affairs, because His Highness will arrange someone to take your place temporarily.Although these people are not as capable as the adults, they still have a little bit of real ability. I believe that under their support, Yuezhou should not have any problems. You don't have to worry about it. "

"You..." If you don't understand what Li Ergou said at this time, then everyone present will really become idiots - why protect our lives?Didn't you lead the army to fear that we would escape, so you deliberately led people to arrest us first?You also took over my government affairs. I think you just want to use this opportunity to replace us. It's ruthless.

What's more ruthless is that he can't even escape, and can only wait for Li Zhen to return to settle accounts after Qiu Hou, which is poisonous enough.

At that time, one person was furious and scolded: "Presumptuous, the lowest in our place are all civil servants from the seventh rank, can a mere royal guard catch you?"

"I said your ears are blocked by dog ​​shit, right? Does this mean that you are going to be arrested?" Li Ergou said impatiently, "Didn't I say that? Because Linyi Baitou invaded Huanzhou, and Yuezhou City became Lingnan City. There is a high possibility that spies from the two kingdoms will lurk in and sabotage the ruling place of Dao. It will be bad to hurt your lords at that time, so His Highness ordered us to protect you. His Highness is very kind, when did you say arrest You guys?"

"Besides, who said I'm a little guard?" Li Ergou took out a token and shook it: "I'm now the majestic fourth-rank Habayashi Zhonglang General of the Qinwei Mansion. The rank is higher than that of everyone here. Most of them are taller, don’t you think I’m an official because I don’t wear official uniform?”

This token is not fake. Li Ergou, as the earliest confidant who followed Li Zhen, has worked hard in front of Li Zhen for more than ten years. With Li Zhen's character, he will naturally not treat him badly (the imperial guard in the Tang Dynasty was a fifth-rank Li Zhen promoted him from a false official of the fifth rank to a general with real power under the fourth rank, compared to Li Ergou's ability, it is indeed not a bad treatment).Not only Li Ergou, but also Lin San, Zhu Wang, Zhu Run and others all received similar treatment.

However, although these people were awarded generals with real power, they still did not leave Li Zhen. Instead, they worked harder, because as long as Li Zhen was awarded the Great Treasure, then they would be the meritorious service of the dragon. It's time to leave him.

Seeing the badge, the officials still dismissed it: "Your personal guard, General Zhonglang, is indeed the highest rank among all the people present, but the personal guard is a military general in the palace, how can you control our local officials?"

"As the prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zhen imprisoned officials of the fief for no reason. This is a felony. Isn't he afraid of the emperor's wrath? We have recorded all the evil deeds that Li Zhen committed during this period, and jointly signed a letter to the court. Well, you just wait to die."

Li Ergou sneered: "Hehe, I think your ears are really blocked by shit, or you have been frightened to Shi Lezhi. Didn't you hear? I was ordered by His Highness. Not to mention His Highness is The king of Yue has the important task of guarding Yuezhou on behalf of the emperor. It is said that the king of Yue has the two identities of Lingnan appeasement envoy and Lingnan patrol envoy. Now Lingnan has entered a state of war. According to the rules, he has the right to take over all the military and political power in Lingnan , Liu Hongji has to listen to him, why am I telling you this? Take them all away."

"Who dares?" At that time, a person stood up and yelled: "I am Sima of Yuezhou, and I want to see Your Highness." In this case, the relationship between the Governor’s Mansion and the Zhisuo State Government has two forms: one form is that the relationship between the Dudu Mansion and the Zhisuo State Government is a joint office The two sets of bureaucrats are merged; another form is that there are two sets of bureaucratic assistant systems for the governor's mansion and the state-level officials in the governor's mansion and the prefecture. Although these two systems have a chief, they do not work together. It is relatively independent and does not belong to each other. This article uses the second form here, so Yuezhou can be called both Yuezhou Prefecture and Yuezhou Dudufu, not because of three typos.)”

Li Ergou gave him a cold look: "I'm sorry, the war in Huanzhou is very urgent. His Highness has already led the army to go out. I want to see His Highness. Let's talk about it when His Highness comes back. By the way, I will add one more thing, don't expect someone to save you, now All the officials in the official circles of Yuezhou have been protected by us, you should stop contacting now, and we will naturally let you meet when you get to the place."

Li Ergou's words completely ruined the luck of these people. He originally wanted to contact his colleagues for help, but now that the entire Yuezhou officialdom has been arrested, what's the point of asking for help?

"You can't arrest me. My wife is the daughter of the Wang family in Taiyuan. If you arrest me, you are making an enemy of the family."

"Don't catch me, I confess, I surrender, I will answer whatever you ask."

"Don't care about my business, I'm just a little cangcao."

"My teacher is the censor, if you arrest me, I will definitely let my teacher go to Wang Yiben, so that you can't eat and walk around."

"Li Zhen, you have the power to take advantage of the power and capture officials for no reason. You will die badly."

"Please, don't arrest me. I'm really innocent. They forced me."
