Crown Tang emperor

Hearing King Yong's words, Li Qianli didn't understand what he meant, so he patted his chest and assured him: "Your Highness, please rest assured, after returning to the capital, it will be as short as ten days or as long as more than a month, and I will definitely send this beast to Xijing! "

Chapter 0691 Boyu weather, a generation of precedent

Qiao Zhizhi was naturally very excited when he learned that King Yong had arrived and sent people to summon him.While excited, he couldn't bear to see his friend so depressed, so he decided to lead Chen Ziang to see King Yong.

Today, crowds gathered around Qujiang Pond and the social situation was complicated. Qiao Zhizhi didn't dare to disclose the news of King Yong's arrival. He just apologized to all his friends and forced Chen Ziang to leave the meeting.It's not that they treat each other with closeness, but it is obvious that Chen Ziang needs support and help now. As for the other friends present, they can only explain and apologize after King Yong leaves.

Chen Ziang, smelling of alcohol, was dragged into the dormitory by Qiao's family and forced to change his clothes. He was a little bit resistant at first, but after hearing Qiao Zhizhi's explanation, his expression was dull and shocked, and he said after a while: "Zuo Si wants to lead I'm going to see His Royal Highness King Yong? I can see King Yong..."

Qiao Zhizhi nodded after hearing the words, and comforted Chen Ziang with a smile: "Although His Royal Highness King Yong is powerful in Shaanxi and famous in the world, he is gentle and polite when interacting with people in private, and he does not rely on power to bully others. Tour Qujiang. Boyu doesn’t have to be overly nervous, just answer normally, with uncompromising demeanor. His Royal Highness Yong respects talents, and Li and Su Zhiliu are often guests. I have heard about Boyu’s literary name for a long time. It's a pity to save one side..."

Speaking of this, he leaned forward and said in a low voice: "The gods have judged that it hurts deeply, but this place is not in the sky after all, and the only one who can help Boyu wash away your shame is only His Royal Highness King Yong." You must seize this opportunity, so as not to waste all your talents!"

Hearing this, Chen Ziang felt a little unconfident. His whole body fell into a kind of anxiety, his hands were clenched frequently, and his body continued to wander around the room: "His Royal Highness King Yong is famous all over the world. So, in front of this lord, who dares to boast? The reason for the self-beauty in the past is only because the hero of the time has not been seen...I, I really have no confidence. I don't know how to invite His Highness to appreciate it. Good intentions... Kuangshen has already gained a notorious reputation, even if he donates the platform, he may not get any help, and he will be disturbed by slander..."

It was the first time even Qiao Zhizhi, who had a deep friendship with Chen Ziang, saw such an unconfident appearance. It was obvious that the encounter in Shendu had severely damaged his confidence.

Qiao Zhizhi sighed in his heart, and at the same time stepped forward and pulled Chen Ziang to advise him: "Boyu was so heroic in the old days, and my friends sighed that it was not as good as it, so how could a word break it? If you really can't forgive yourself, it's better to just do an ordinary literary meeting. Even if there is no big gain , but it is also a blessing to be able to see the demeanor of the famous king up close."

Chen Ziang let out a long mouthful of alcohol, and then said to Qiao Zhizhi in embarrassment: "Such a gaffe, made Zuo Si laugh."

Qiao Zhizhi saw that Chen Ziang regained his composure, and then smiled again: "His Royal Highness King Yong has a high reputation, and the sound of his voice is already heart-wrenching. Every time I communicate with the other side, I still feel uneasy. Boyu, you are so frustrated!" Du, it is good to keep this awe-inspiring heart, if you are still full of self-respect and contemptuous of princes, then I dare not easily lead you in."

"Zuo Si's good words, Bo Yu has learned a lot."

Chen Ziang nodded heavily again, and then retreated behind the screen. After tidying up the crown belt, he strode out, signaling to Qiao Zhizhi that he could set off now.

The two walked out of the small garden, led and escorted by armored soldiers of the Chinese army, and soon came to the garden of Han Ou.After passing through several guard posts, they arrived at the bottom of the attic where King Yong was.After a short briefing, someone naturally went downstairs to lead them upstairs.

At this time, in the hall, singing and dancing are graceful.After telling Li Qianli about Qinghai Wang Murongzhong, Li Tong had time to enjoy the music, and when he saw Qiao Zhizhi and the other two figures appearing in front of the door, he waved his hands to signal the suspension of singing and dancing, and the actors retreated temporarily.

"The minister is living in a private residence to hang out with friends. Hearing His Highness's summons, he has no time to repair his appearance. I came to see you in a hurry. Please forgive the rudimentary."

Qiao Zhizhi came forward to salute, and said with a smile.

"It's my recklessness to disturb Qiao Jun's leisure time in Yanju and take away your friendship as a landlord."

While speaking, Li Tong pointed to the side seat Li Qianli and introduced to Qiao Zhizhi: "Today, King Yu Lin, the elder of the family, came to the capital. I'm afraid that I will be slow at the ceremony. I heard that Qiao Jun lives in the mansion, so I invited you to have fun."

Not to mention that Qiao Zhizhi greeted Li Qianli again, after the introduction, Li Tong turned his gaze to Chen Ziang who was going upstairs with Qiao Zhizhi.Although Qiao Zhizhi hadn't introduced him face to face, the guards naturally wouldn't randomly put an unknown person into the building, so although Li Tong and Chen Ziang had never met, they already knew the identity of the person.

"Chen Zi'ang from Shu, I pay my respects to His Royal Highness King Yong and King Yu Lin."

Chen Ziang was still a bit cautious after climbing the building, and bowed his head before entering the building.

Qiao Zhizhi also turned his gaze back at this moment, and said to King Yong: "Before we chatted with His Highness, His Highness occasionally mentioned the name of Chen Boyu, and Qia Boyu is a guest at the mansion today, so he took the liberty to introduce it to His Highness. "

After hearing the words, Li Tong nodded with a smile, raised his hand to signal Chen Ziang to excuse him, and invited the two of them to the table, his eyes naturally looked at Chen Ziang more.

To be honest, Li Tong was quite disappointed in this first meeting.A contemporary celebrity, he has a lot of interest in Chen Ziang, but because of various coincidences, he missed it, and he never saw each other.

But after meeting today, he felt that Chen Ziang's personal image did not meet his expectations.Not to mention dignified appearance, tall and burly, just the boundless temperament of "the past does not see the past, and the future does not see the future", it seems to be somewhat lacking.

Chen Ziang was less than six feet tall, with a medium build, and his face was a little serious, but the brows were dark, making his whole person shrouded in a faint air of depression, and he couldn't see the slightest aura of a literary hero.

If Qiao Zhizhi hadn't been there to prove his identity, even if he saw him face to face, Li Tong would have been afraid that he would have mistakenly thought that he was a low-level bureaucrat somewhere.

However, Li Tong would not judge people by their appearance, not to mention that he had also heard about what happened to Chen Ziang.

This kind of rich second-generation official does not seek money, but cares more about whether his political ambitions can be realized. As a result, he was sentenced to death by Emperor Li Dan in the gods. On the contrary, Li Tong wanted to suspect that he was treasonous, and regarded the Tang family's fame and fortune as dung.

Li Qianli didn't pay much attention to the arrival of these two people, and he was still thinking about how to blackmail Qinghai Wang Murongzhong after returning to the capital.He not only regarded this as an opportunity to enrich his personal pockets, but also regarded it as a test for him by King Yong.

Although King Yong did not make it clear whether he would accept his suggestion, but he must have been moved, because the friendship between each other is still shallow, and it is still not enough to give advice to each other, so he arranged such a task for him to investigate Look at his mind and ability.

Naturally, he didn't dare to neglect this, and after all the calculations, he even completely forgot about the mission of coming to Chang'an this time.Just because the emperor was mean to him, anyway, even if he asks for the money back, he won't share much with him.

Since Qiao Zhizhi introduced Chen Ziang, he naturally wouldn't let the silence go, and took the initiative to lead the topic to the diction with the help of the vocal ending just now.King Yong is naturally a master of this way, Chen Ziang is also a master of the world, and Qiao Zhizhi, an old literary youth, warms up the scene, so there is no need to worry about having nothing to talk about.

"Shen and Song Dynasties are the best in the current world. But the world is fair, although your highness has not written much on this, but he has already advanced here. If you choose the chapters neatly, the ones that come out of the current flow are still the same as "Vientiane "The words!"

Poetry has existed since ancient times, and one of the biggest reasons why Tang poetry is unique is the appearance of regulated poetry.Not to mention how later generations evaluate and appreciate, in the Tang Dynasty, regulated poetry was an important symbol of dividing the present from the past.

Shen Quanqi and Song Zhiwen have contributed to the development of regulated poetry, so even if the names of these two poems are not as famous as the poets of the prosperous Tang Dynasty in later generations, they cannot be ignored as long as Tang poetry is discussed.

Of course, this is without Li Tong's coercion. Li Tong has been in this world for several years. Introducing the Taige style of the Ming Dynasty is simply a formulaic work of regulated poetry.

Hearing Qiao Zhizhi's comment, Li Tong just smiled lightly: "The words of "Vientiane" are formed by the rhythm, but also limited by the rhythm, or the skills of the diction, but it is still far from being a model, just a game of literati. But Chen Boyu's " The chapter of "Gan Yu" inherits the ancient meanings of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, sweeping away the decadence of the Six Dynasties, or it may be said that the words are clumsy and obscure, but this clumsiness is beyond the reach of the four sons.

Chen Zi'ang was tired at the table, even when it came to the field of diction that he was good at, he was just barely perfunctory.

But when he heard King Yong's comment, he stood up suddenly from the table, stared at King Yong in disbelief, his eyes gradually became brighter, and after a while, he leaned over and sighed deeply, "You can get such praise from Your Highness." It's absurd praise, Ziang is deeply moved! It's not out of greed for life and good reputation, it's really a great fortune to be in the world with His Highness. There is no danger and no place to stand in the world of a man who is out of the crowd!"

The reason why Chen Ziang was so excited had his own reasons.The empress is so caring, so all the scribes are attached to her, and Chen Ziang is naturally among them.

In previous years, I was fortunate to be published because of an article "Remonstrance Lingjia Entering Beijing", which also planted the seeds of disaster for today's encounter.But regardless of his own circumstances, his literary and poetic talents are also quite controversial.

Although it is true that there are a group of scholars such as Qiao Zhizhi, who highly respect him.However, the mainstream literati group still does not accept his writing style and poetic style very much, thinking that he is withdrawn and arrogant, and he is still a humble person in essence.

The reason why he was so depressed before is that the current emperor's four words "forced resignation to evil talents" negate him completely from being a man to writing. It can be said that he has completely deprived him of all the dignity he has ever had since he was born, and he is almost reduced to a walking dead .

However, King Yong's lofty evaluation of him seems to have injected new life into his body. It is not just as simple as a confidant and acquaintance, it is simply saving him from the brink of collapse!

Chapter 0692 no choice, talent is urgent

Seeing that Chen Ziang reacted so fiercely with his own comments, Li Tong also felt his strong desire to be recognized.

It is no wonder that, regardless of the current political situation, although Chen Ziang has a pivotal position in the entire literary history of the Tang Dynasty, this position was not established during his lifetime.

Whether a person is awesome or not, it doesn't count if he says it himself.In the cultural atmosphere of the early Tang Dynasty, poetry respected Shen Song, and literature was dominated by Su and Li.Compared with these mainstream literati, Chen Ziang is more like a fringe person outside the mainstream circle, and all he can get is the approval of the small circle.

Taking poetry alone as an example, Chen Ziang's 38 "Gan Yu" poems can be said to be the only ones in the entire early Tang poetry circle.As Li Tong said, his diction is deep and clumsy, in other words, the writing is not beautiful enough. Although it is not well handed down, it greatly expands the themes, styles and artistic conceptions of early Tang poetry.

The poetic style of the early Tang Dynasty is deeply inherited from the Qi and Liang competitions, and there is little character to boast about. Although the poets of the early Tang Dynasty headed by the four sons of the early Tang Dynasty had their own explorations, they did not go as far as Chen Ziang, a Sichuan guy.Or it can be said that Chen Ziang was not completed in the mainstream cultural circle from the beginning of his enlightenment, so when he came out, he immediately gave people a refreshing feeling.

If you have a little dabble in the poetry and prose of the early Tang Dynasty, you can clearly feel that Chen Ziang is simply a lone knight in the field of poetry and prose, creating a new world with his talents.His poems were inspired by Li Du, and his writing was published by Han Liu. It is indeed not an exaggeration for Li Tong to say that he is the first of his generation.

Li Tong, a great literary thief who deceived the world and stole his name, was already highly respected in the current world, and he also had close interactions with the current cultural circles.Li Qiao and Shen Quanqi are both his old friends, and Su Weiwei is even more directly employed.As for Zhang Shuo, who was admired by Yan Xu for his great writing in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, this little slicker relied on his good communication skills to come and go in and out of his family.

Even so, his sense of expectation for Chen Ziang still remained undiminished, just because Chen Ziang indeed possessed an irreplaceable position.There is a heroic and pioneering atmosphere between the lines in Chen Ziang's poems, which is beyond the reach of others.

It's just that this style and character may not be recognized by the ruler.Li Tong still remembered that even Wu Zetian, who had promoted Chen Ziang, appreciated and promoted him. When Li Tong wanted to call Chen Ziang into the mansion, his grandma's evaluation of Chen Ziang was that the people of Shu were too loud and too good to be a guest.

Now that Li Tong is in charge of his own affairs, he naturally has fewer scruples about choosing candidates.But in fact, even he himself appreciates Chen Ziang only because of his personal feelings, and he will not give him the key just because he loves his poems.

Qiao Zhizhi saw that King Yong had such a positive evaluation of Chen Ziang, his appreciation was beyond words, and he was also happy for his friend in his heart, so he quickly said: "Chen Boyu's words are not only poetry, but also very harsh in politics and affairs. In the old days, I was in the army with the same robe, and I dabbled in military planes, and there may be no traces of large weapons to call it, but if I put it down and use it, there will be no loss in the matter."

Li Tong nodded after hearing the words, but still said: "It's a pity that Chen Boyu was convicted because of his words. But he is in charge of government in Shaanxi, and he is not a country outside the culture. , and dare not disobey the emperor's order."

After hearing the words, Chen Ziang bowed his head and bowed again: "Ziang is talented, withdrawn, and lacks elegance. I am grateful for a word of encouragement from His Royal Highness. I dare not rely on this mistake and fall into the injustice of Your Highness. I can get a tile. With a body of five feet, officials and nobles dare not expect it in their arms."

His Majesty the Emperor Shendu's verdict on Chen Ziang was so serious that the masses turned their attention, so that Li Tong had to be a little jealous.Although the characters of each other are not in circulation at present, the imperial court has no suitable excuse to prohibit the exchanges between the people.

But if Li Tong ignored the emperor's accusations against Chen Ziang and made use of him, it would be a blatant provocation.Based on this alone, many containment measures that the imperial court could not do openly can be banned directly, and even directly intervene in the personnel appointment of Xingtai.

Naturally, Li Tong would not take such a risk. Hearing Chen Ziang's statement made him quite satisfied, so he said with a smile: "The Tang family is established with greatness, and there are four poles in the universe. How can one or two people with different talents be tolerated?" .If you really want to donate, you can choose a date and hand over the calendar to the Xingtai for admission."

After Chen Ziang heard the words, he was overjoyed again, and thanked His Royal Highness King Yong repeatedly for his kindness in knowing the situation and solving the disaster.

After talking about this matter, the atmosphere became much more harmonious, and before I knew it, it was getting late.

If there were no special circumstances, Li Tong would basically not stay outside. Seeing that it was getting late, he apologized to Li Qianli at the banquet, and arranged for Qiao Zhizhi to entertain him for the next few days, and then he got up and said goodbye .

In the next few days, under Qiao Zhizhi's arrangement, Li Qianli's schedule was full. He either watched operas in Qujiang Pond or listened to music in Pingkang Square. return status.

The tribute from Zhuzhou counties in Shaanxi Province is definitely a huge amount of wealth, and the imperial court never forgets to send people to demand it, so it is naturally impossible for Li Qianli to be the only one.However, under the arrangement of the travel platform, Li Qianli wandered happily in Chang'an City every day, completely forgetting about this matter, and the subordinate officials could hardly find him.

Even if you don't ask about the business, even if those subordinate officials approached Xingtai to negotiate, you can imagine Xingtai's attitude towards this, it's nothing more than perfunctory, and they can't even see serious officials, paying tribute to make up for luck Naturally, there is no way to talk about it.

If they fail to complete the tasks entrusted by the court, these people will naturally be reprimanded or even relegated after returning to the capital.

Li Qianli is naturally confident about this. His current experience in the court can be said to have fallen to the bottom, and there is almost no room for decline. Otherwise, he would not offer advice to King Yong to welcome King Luling back as soon as he entered Beijing.Even if he returns without success this time, it's a big deal to continue to maintain leisure.

The emperor now treats his clan members preferentially to show his kindness, and Li Qianli is close by blood in the clan, so as long as there is no conclusive crime of treason, it is inconvenient for the emperor to punish him directly.Now that he is on the line with King Yong, he is even more generous, and if the east is not tolerated, he will live in Xijing, what a big deal.

Li Qianli has the confidence to break a jar, but those officials who followed him to Xijing did not.

When the emperor was not out of the palace, he was known for his benevolence and forgiveness, but as he assumed power, his actions were far from the previous ones.

The most notable is what happened to former prime ministers Li Zhaode, Wei Yuanzhong and other veterans, and when the officials related to King Yong were purged, the determination of the king shown was even more awe-inspiring.A large number of officials were demoted for no reason. On the contrary, Xu Junchen and his like, who were known as cruel officials in the Wu Zhou Dynasty, were still able to enjoy their favor.

It is conceivable that they returned without success this time. At a small scale, the imperial court would reprimand them for being unfavorable in doing things. At a large scale, they might be suspected of secretly communicating with Xingtai, conspiring to perfunctory the court, and even going to Luoyang. Push the courtyard and go up.

Therefore, the anxiety in these people's hearts can be imagined.

However, no matter how these people feel, Xingtai has its own rules and regulations, and it will not show any compassionate care for their respective future safety.

After the Shangsi Festival, Li Tong took a special day to receive Li Qianli, and then returned to Xingtai to busy with government affairs.In addition to the basic military and political affairs, Xingtai now has a more important task, which is to recruit as many scholars as possible from the capital of gods to Chang'an.

Although the framework of Xingtai is complete now, it is naturally better to have more talents.Especially in last year's winter election, the imperial court did not include the officials from the counties and counties of Shaanxi Province in the supplementary list for the election.

This was not because the court was stingy, but to avoid many personnel disputes with Xingtai. After all, on the eve of the election, the empress dowager stretched her legs, which made the government and the public vigilant.

Although Xingtai's personnel rights have greatly increased due to this, the corresponding talent selection channels are difficult to match, and there is no major improvement.

Moreover, the people of the prefectures and counties under the jurisdiction of Shaanxi Province are complex, and there are still many frontier prefectures among them. All the officials hired and appointed have higher requirements for talents, not just politics.If you really want to encounter foreign enemies invading, or Hu people making noise, you even need to wear armor to fight.

At present, the shortage of officials in various prefectures and counties of Shaanxi Province has reached as many as hundreds, and in the future, some prefectural governments will be gradually banned, and formal prefectures and counties will be established for registered jurisdiction. The talent gap is already huge, and the talent reserve is also the same The requirements are not low.

So in the recent period, Li Tong, including some executives, have been discussing this recently.Xingtai is not like the imperial court, which has complete regulations and institutions for the selection of officials, and there is no such thing as an imperial examination to recruit fresh blood on a large scale.It is far from enough to make up for this gap by relying solely on the recommendation of recruiting and serving officials.

Recently, there have been quite a few unsuccessful candidates from Shendu to Chang'an.But how many of them are interested in joining Xingtai, and how to judge the talents of those who have such intentions, this is a big headache.

Exams are the fairest and most convincing way to recruit qualified talents on a large scale.Although the imperial court has civil elections for candidates, imperial examinations for candidates, and systemic examinations for all scholars.However, Xingtai is not without loopholes in this regard, it is nothing more than a different name.

The question now is how many people intend to participate in the talent selection examination held by Xingtai?This question seems simple, but it is very complicated to figure it out. It does not mean that I must have the idea of ​​joining Xingtai when I arrive in Chang'an.

If Xingtai held a selection test rashly, but the number of candidates for the selection was not as expected, the level of the selected talents would not be guaranteed.

The second is to directly show whether Xingtai has a high or low degree of recognition among the scholars. If the number of candidates is too small, the aspirations of scholars will be clearly visible, which will have a great negative impact on the development of Xingtai, and will also Let the imperial court be more lenient in dealing with Xingtai matters.

Therefore, the main issue that Li Tong discussed with his assistants during this period is how to conduct a public opinion poll without showing any signs of expression, or how to strengthen the scholars' sense of identity with Xingtai through some events, and then conduct another poll with confidence in mind. Selected scholars.

Originally, Chen Zi'ang's literary name was not low, and his encounter was bizarre, but because it was too bizarre, it was not easy to publicize it as a flaunt of King Yong's love for talent.

In the early morning of this day, Li Tong left the palace and returned to the platform under the arch of his own soldiers.But when passing the official office of the Ministry of Household Affairs, a person from Daozuo suddenly rushed out and came straight towards them.

"Stop here!"

The personal guard Guo Da, who was close to him, saw that the person was an unfamiliar face, he drew his knife and shouted angrily, and the rest of the guards also sharpened their blades to protect King Yong.

Chapter 0693 under the sword, only evil

The man who suddenly rushed out of the imperial city was about 40 years old, dressed in a scarlet official robe, and saw that the personal guards of King Yong were holding knives in their hands, so he stopped moving forward and stood a few feet away, with his face on his face. But there was no fear at all, he just stood up and cupped his hands and said: "The servants of the gods are ordered to enter the capital, and the matter is trapped here. I have insulted the king's life, and I have no face to return to the capital. I have no face to live. I dare to offend. Give me the whole festival!"

Guo Da saw that he had no personal belongings and had no malicious intentions, but offending King Yong Yijia was also a crime, so he ordered the guards to come forward, cut the man's arms backwards, and pressed him to the ground, and then asked for instructions: "Your Highness, this madman How should it be punished?"

Li Tong frowned and looked at this person with his hands behind his back, but he didn't have any impression in his heart.Hearing his shout before entering, it should be a court scholar from the capital of God.The journey was disturbed by this, so he was not in a good mood, especially the words shouted by the other party made him furious, and he stomped his feet and said angrily: "The madman is so surly! Under my magic sword, only the treacherous Evil thief, how can there be a man of integrity!"

The man's body was pressed and fell into the dust, but he still held his head up as hard as he could, and shouted loudly: "Your Highness has promised himself, why do you treat the imperial edict as nothing! The lowly ranks came here under the emperor's order, and they asked for nothing. The height of the gate is even higher than that of Chenju Tianque!"

The commotion here quickly attracted the attention of all the officials on the platform, and they all waited and watched who was so bold as to dare to directly offend His Highness King Yong within the platform of the imperial city.

At the same time, officials from the household department office near the left also rushed over, and after seeing the man's face clearly, they couldn't help but ask in surprise, "Why is Cheng Pei still in the imperial city? Didn't you come back to the palace yesterday, waiting to go?" See you on stage?"

After the middle-aged man named Pei Cheng heard the words, he said with grief and indignation: "Although the food in Xingtai is rich, it satisfies my appetite, and I miss the hunger and cold of the king and ministers in the gods! Xingtai is procrastinating, and I have been trapped for a long time. In the future See, is there any good news to convey?"

Seeing the crowds gathering around him, Li Tong waved his hand to signal that this person should be escorted to the nearest household office, and summoned the household officials to ask in a deep voice, "Who is this person? What is he charged with?"

"This person's name is Pei Shouzhen, who lives in the Divine Capital Taifu Cheng. He entered Xijing together with King Yu Lin to discuss tribute matters..."

Seeing that King Yong's face was ugly and his mood was extremely disturbed, the officials of the household department hurriedly explained in a low voice.

"Pei Shouzhen?"

After hearing this explanation, Li Tong frowned even deeper. He was about to order the household department to deal with it himself, but after thinking about it, he went to the government office of the household department and ordered: "Return Li Shangshu to the government office, and send it to the government office. Let’s take the Taidu Zhiji roll.”

Not long after, Li Yuanyuan, who was sweating all over his head, hurried back to the yamen hall of the household department. When he entered the hall, he saw His Royal Highness King Yong reading the scrolls with a gloomy face. After finishing, I did not check the warehouses and verandas in time, causing the villain to hide in the office and disturb His Highness..."

"Shang Shu is not responsible for this matter, Dang Zhi Ling Shi has already been punished."

After Li Tong heard the words, he waved his hand and signaled Li Yuanyuan to take the seat.That Pei Shouzhen was also very courageous, and planned for many days. Taking advantage of the opportunity of frequent visits to the imperial city, he carefully observed the layout of the household department's official residence. , hid in the warehouse for a night, and finally let him wait for the opportunity to attack him face to face, and took himself into the army.

Although Li Tong was in a bad mood, he had to express his admiration for Pei Shouzhen's courage.According to the current relationship between Xingtai and the imperial court, if Li Tong is determined to kill Pei Shouzhen directly for the crime of assassination, the imperial court will not only dare not pursue it, but will send envoys to express condolences, and even less dare to mention the matter of urging the tribute .

"Bring that Pei Shouzhen up."

When Li Yuanyuan also sat down in the hall, Li Tong put down the scroll in his hand and spoke.

Not long after, Pei Shouzhen was escorted up again. His official robes had been stripped off, and his clothes were scattered. He was quite embarrassed, but his temper was still strong.

"This beast is not weak in courage. I put myself in danger and my life to alienate people. If I get angry for a while, I can't bear it, and I kill him in the imperial city, how can I get it to the court? Now all the thieves and bandits are looking at me as an enemy. According to Li Xianggong From what you can see, where is this thief instigated by the bandit to go to my sword and beg for his revenge?"
