When he returned home, Li Shang crossed the threshold with difficulty, and saw a tall and burly figure walking not far away: "Congratulations to the adults to return home." ”

Lamenting and stepping forward, Li Shang slowly handed his hand over, and the young man hurriedly took his arm and helped Li Shang to walk towards the house.

"My lord, what is the situation of today's events?"

When Li Shang heard this, he shook his head bitterly: "Alas... The county official didn't give an inch of land, and the prime minister didn't speak, and all kinds of money and things were taken back to the palace..."

As he spoke, Li Shang stopped and faced the young man: "Send it, repair a book for your father, take it to the clouds, look for Wei Shang and Wei Gong in the clouds, and enlist in the army as a pawn..."

The young man was shocked when he heard this: "Didn't my father say that he would send his son to the army in a few years?" ”

I saw Li Shang shaking his head with a heavy face: "This time, that time." ”

"Chang'an, I'm afraid it's going to be a sudden change in wind and rain..."

Sighing, the merchant suddenly coughed violently, and the young man hurriedly handed over a piece of white silk, and in a moment, the white silk was stained red by the blood that the merchant coughed up!

"Father!"

The young man hurriedly knelt on the ground, tears instantly hanging in his eyes: "Is my father okay?" ”

Seeing that his son's face was full of worry, a kind smile appeared on Li Shang's pale face.

Raising the young man in vain, Li Shang sighed and said: "Send your son pure filial piety, die for your father tonight, and you should die without regrets..."

"Father..."

Hearing this, the young man suddenly couldn't cry and fell to his knees again...

·················

Today, the mansion of Chang'an Gaomen is destined to have no cheerful atmosphere.

With faint expectations, the ministers loaded the money and goods they 'brought' from Shaofu into a carriage and sent them outside Simamen, hoping that Prime Minister Chen Ping would come forward and keep this 'reward' in their own hands.

It's a pity that Chen Ping didn't say a word from beginning to end; Just pushed out the new Shaofu Ling Zhang Budo, asked him to count the amount, and then returned all the money and belongings to the Shaofu.

In the end, Liu Hong appeared in Sima Gate in person and took all the money and belongings back, leaving Chen Ping, Zhou Bo and Zhang Budo to stare dryly.

The noble ministers were also helpless, and they couldn't afford to provoke Chen Ping and Zhou Bo, so they had to glare at Zhang Budo viciously, and then they went home.

Poor Zhang Budo, he only sat in the position of Jiuqing yesterday, and he only officially went to work this morning, and he encountered such a big crisis...

At this time, Zhang Budo anxiously followed behind Chen Ping and Zhou Bo and stepped into the gate of the Marquis of Quzhou's mansion.

When he came to the guest hall, the guests of honor sat down separately, and Zhang Budo said impatiently: "The prime minister, please show me the way, the majesty of the lower officials is now gone, how should I do things in the future?" ”

Among the nine Qings, Shaofu may not be the most powerful, but absolutely no one dares to provoke existence!

Not to mention anything else, just the weaving room controlled by the Shaofu and the distribution of winter and summer official uniforms of the officials in the world are enough to make everyone shy away from the Shaofu order.

If you provoke the people of Shaofu, Shaofu doesn't have to do it secretly, just think about it when distributing official uniforms, send thick clothes in winter in summer, and thin shirts in summer, then the fun will be great!

Not to mention, all the materials of the official offices and yamen in Chang'an are distributed by the Shaofu.

Zhang Budo is naturally gearing up, and he stepped into the position of Shaofu with great ambitions, and he planned to shake his majesty.

Unexpectedly, today's accident suddenly made his position as the secretary of the young government awkward.

Under normal circumstances, Shaofu, as the emperor's personal butler, should have the blessing of imperial power, and the emperor must have 100% trust in Shaofuqing.

Now the situation in the court is relatively special, and the source of the authority of the Shaofu is already a little delicate, purely supported by Chen Ping and Zhou Bo behind Zhang Budo; But after today's incident, even Chen Ping and Zhou Bo themselves don't have much majesty in the hearts of the courtiers, let alone Ma Zai.

What made Zhang Bu even more difficult to accept was that the 'returned' reward was taken back to the palace by Liu Hong alone...

Liu Hong didn't use the ready-made money bag of Shaofu, but took the money alone, which is undoubtedly extremely simple information: Liu Hong doesn't trust Shaofu at all!

Although, it is reasonable for Liu Hong not to trust Shaofu, but before, Mao Dun was at least under the stage, and in the eyes of Xiao Xiami, who did not know the truth, Shaofu could still pull the tiger skin of the imperial power.

But Liu Hong's move today is undoubtedly to move himself and Shaofu's Mao Dun from under the table to the table, unabashedly expressing his distrust of Shaofu; This made Zhang Budo very uncomfortable.

In the future, if Zhang Budo wants to embarrass a little shrimp, he has to worry about the other party asking a rhetorical question: Since Shaofuqing has hated the Son of Heaven, he should resign and return home, why can't he be attached to it now?

What's more, the prestige of Shaofu is based on huge material reserves; Now Shaofu is almost an empty shell, and the inventory of Shaofu has turned a corner and slipped into the hands of Liu Hong...

If Zhang Budo doesn't want to be an honorary Jiuqing, he must find a way to make his young secretary meaningful.

Chen Ping, who helped him into position, was his only hope.

After speaking, he looked at Chen Ping anxiously, but saw that Chen Ping's brows were tightly locked, and his pupils were dilated, as if he was thinking about something.

At this time, Chen Ping was indeed thinking about things; In other words, Chen Ping didn't listen to a word of Zhang Budo's words.

Thinking of Liu Hong today, Chen Ping always felt unsteady in his heart, and felt that if he continued like this, he would wait for others to take jujube pills!

But the worry in his heart made Chen Ping unable to make up his mind - the little emperor Liu Hong is likely to secretly control a border army, thinking that it is foreign aid!

Reckless action is likely to intensify the contradictions, and the two sides will change from the current court wrestling to armed conflict.

looked at Zhou Bo suspiciously, and saw that Zhou Bo was also like himself, his tooth socket was urgent, but he couldn't make up his mind.

Thinking about it, Chen Ping felt more and more like a fish in his throat - that unknown border army was really a variable!

If it is not solved as soon as possible, Chen Ping is worried that the border army will give himself a fatal blow in the future.

Thinking like this, Chen Ping tentatively said: "Lang Zhongling has been silent lately, what does Jianghou think?" ”

I saw Zhou Bowei stunned for a moment, and then his eyes lit up: "What the prime minister said is extremely true, Lang Zhongling has indeed been idle for these days. ”

Seeing that Zhou Bo agreed, Chen Ping nodded, made up his mind, and explained to the slave behind him: "You go to the Pingyang Marquis Mansion and inform the Imperial Doctor: Lang Zhongling, or you can move..."

When the servant heard this, he was puzzled, but wisely did not ask much and took the order to leave.

Standing up and looking at Zhang Budo, who was confused, Chen Ping's face was also a little more relaxed: "Shaofu and go back first, in a few days, today's predicament will be solved." ”

Zhang Budo looked at Zhou Bo suspiciously, and saw that Zhou Bo also nodded with a light smile, so he had to bow down: "Then the next official, just wait for the good news of the prime minister..."
