Early the next morning.

Wang Yun got up and washed up, and after breakfast, he asked the servant beside him, "Did the old bustard get up?" ”

"I'm already up, waiting for my master in the hall."

When Wang Yun heard this, he frowned, quite displeased, and thought to himself: "Does this old bustard regard this place as his home?" ”

However, Wang Yun knew that this was a critical moment, and he still needed the bustard, so he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and ignored the old bustard's self-assertion.

After Wang Yun came to the palace with the old bustard, Liu Hong had not yet gone to the court at this time, and the officials were all gathered in piles and whispering.

Seeing Wang Yun come in, one of the slightly older middle-aged officials arched his hand to him and said, "I have seen the prince, and the lower officials have seen the prince's red face, but what is the happy event?" ”

When Wang Yun heard this, he pulled his face and waved his hand: "There is no happy event, there is one thing that makes the old man indignant, the old man's face is full of red light, he is angry!" ”

"Oh?" When the middle-aged official heard Wang Yun's words, he asked curiously: "I don't know who can make the prince lose such a big temper?" ”

"Humph!" Wang Yun snorted coldly when he heard this, and then pretended to say loudly: "Who else can there be?!" It's not the hussar general Li Zhi! ”

"Uh......" As soon as Wang Yun's voice fell, the middle-aged official's face was instantly full of embarrassment.

At this time, he didn't dare to say a word, if he refuted what Wang Yun said, it would be offended by Wang Yun, and if he followed Wang Yun's words, then he would offend the hussar general.

At this time, the middle-aged official was full of remorse in his heart, and he wanted to slap his mouth to pieces, so why did he ask this? Isn't this self-inflicted?!

When the middle-aged official was hesitating, Lu Zhi came over and relieved him: "I don't know where the virtuous nephew offended Wang Zhonglang?" If there is really something offended, the virtuous nephew of the old man will confess to Wang Zhonglang! ”

After speaking, Lu Zhi looked at Wang Yun with blazing eyes.

Lu Zhi had also heard a little about Li Zhi and Wang Yun, he had already noticed that something was wrong, he had been with Li Zhi for so long, how could he not know what kind of temperament Li Zhi had?

If someone said to Lu Zhi that Li Zhi was thirsty for killing, then Lu Zhi would really believe it, but it was impossible to say that Li Zhi bullied the weak!

Moreover, after the conflict between Li Zhi and Wang Yun, the rumors in the city were all over Luoyang, and in a short period of time, they spread throughout Luoyang.

And the person most likely to do this is not Wang Yun in front of him?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi's eyes were a little wrong when he looked at Wang Yun, he was originally an official in the same dynasty, Lu Zhi always thought that Wang Yun was an upright minister, but today, it may not be!

Wang Yun listened to Lu Zhi speak for Li Zhi, his face froze, and then he bowed and said: "The lower official knows that Duke Lu and Li Zhi have a comradeship, but please don't use your personal feelings on official affairs!"

This Li Zhi is reckless, domineering, and really hateful, if he is not punished, it will inevitably become a catastrophe! ”

After speaking, Wang Yun stood up and looked at Lu Zhi with blazing eyes, looking righteous and generous.

When Lu Zhi heard this, he was furious in his heart, and scolded unhappily: "Presumptuous! Are you accusing the old man of being unclear about public and private affairs, and being rash?! ”

"The lower officials don't dare!" Wang Yun woke up suddenly, he knew that he was a little carried away because he grabbed Li Zhi's handle.

Wang Yun is okay to deal with Li Zhi, who has no foundation, but when it comes to dealing with the deep-rooted Lu Zhi, he is a little weak.

After figuring it out, Wang Yun hurriedly apologized to Lu Zhi and said: "Xiaguan has no intention of slandering Lu Gong, but Li Zhi deceived people too much, and Xiaguan was angry for a while

, that's why he didn't choose what to say, hoping that Lu Gong would forgive his sins. ”

"Humph!" When Lu Zhi heard this, he snorted coldly, and was about to open his mouth when he heard a voice coming.

"Your Majesty goes to court, and hundreds of officials worship."

When Lu Zhi heard this, he glared at Wang Yun, then hurriedly tidied up his clothes and stood in his place.

After the hundred officials stood still, Liu Hong, Emperor of Han Ling, walked in, and after sitting down, the hundred officials bowed to him and said: "We will welcome Your Majesty, and I hope that Your Majesty will be blessed and safe." ”

"Hmm" Liu Hong nodded slightly, raised his hand and said, "I bow very well, and the people are flat." ”

After everyone got up, Liu Hong asked, "Do you have something to do?" ”

As soon as Liu Hong's voice fell, just as an official was about to speak, Wang Yun took the lead and said, "Your Majesty, the minister has something to play." ”

"Oh?" Liu Hong saw that it was Wang Yun, his eyes lit up, and he seemed to think of something, so he immediately calmed his expression, nodded lazily, yawned and said, "Say it"

Wang Yun didn't notice Liu Hong's strange appearance, and after saluting Liu Hong respectfully, he said with a sad and indignant face: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to sue the hussar general Li Zhi." ”

"Oh?" The corners of Liu Hong's mouth curled slightly, and he asked jokingly: "I don't know what Wang Qing wants to sue Li Qing?" ”

When Wang Yun heard this, he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, that Li Zhi is as lustful as his life, and he fell in love with the prostitute in the Qinglou, so he sent someone to rob him back, so that the old bustard in Yanlailou was looking for death and life. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Yunyi said rhetorically: "Your Majesty, although Li Zhi is a meritorious man, he has been promoted to hussar general, how can he act like this?"

If the people of the world know about this, don't they think that the officials of the DPRK and China are all as domineering and unscrupulous as Li Zhi, and that after a long time, the country will not be the country! ”

"Forehead ......" Liu Hong held his forehead and looked like he had a headache, shook his head, and said helplessly: "Robbing prostitutes? ”

Liu Hong laughed: "Li Qing can really do it here, and he is not afraid of ruining his reputation." ”

Saying that, Liu Hong looked around, wanting to find Li Zhi, but he didn't find Li Zhi's figure among the ministers, frowned, and asked Zhang Rang on the side: "Zhang Qing, didn't Li Qing go to court today?" ”

When Zhang Rang heard this, he replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the hussar general has only been in office for a few days, and the handover has not yet been carried out, so he has not come to the court." ”

"Look at my memory." Liu Hong slapped his forehead and smiled self-deprecatingly: "How did I forget about this, it seems that I am really old." ”

Speaking of this, Liu Hong instructed a chamberlain on the side: "Xuan Li Qing, let him go to the court to confront Wang Qing." ”

"Wow," the waiter replied and hurried away.

After the chamberlain left, Liu Hong asked Wang Yun: "I have already sent someone to Xuan Hussar General to come, does Wang Qing have any evidence to prove that the Hussar General really robbed the prostitutes in Yanlai Tower?" ”

When Wang Yun heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and said in a righteous and stern manner: "Your Majesty, how dare the minister falsely accuse the minister?"

After the minister heard about this, he made many secret visits to the Ming Investigation, and finally let the minister find the old bustard of the Yan Lai Building, and she could testify about this matter. ”

"Hmm" Liu Hong nodded: "In this case, Aiqing should step back first, and I will discuss this matter after Li Qing comes." ”

After Wang Yun retreated, Liu Hong asked the ministers, "Do you still have something to do?" ”

As soon as Liu Hong's words fell, Lu Zhi came out of the crowd, bowed his hand, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the old minister has something to do." ”

When Liu Hong saw that it was Lu Zhi, he didn't dare to snub this meritorious man, and immediately sat up straight: "What happened to Lu Qing?" ”

Hearing this, Lu Zhi replied loudly

"Your Majesty, please ask Your Majesty to rectify the evil officials in the world to get rid of future troubles!" ”

Speaking of which, Lu Zhi told Liu Hong about the Yellow Turban Lux carefully.

After finishing speaking, Lu Zhi said with a sad and indignant face: "Your Majesty, this Yellow Turban Lux was originally a small people who kept to themselves, but they were forced to join the Yellow Turban by these evil officials, if these evil officials are not removed, there will inevitably be red scarves and black scarves in the future!" ”

Liu Hong, who didn't care about it at first, suddenly woke up after hearing this, and thought in his heart: "What Lu Zhi said is true, if you really don't care about these evil officials, when the time comes, these evil officials will force the people of the world to rebel, what should I do?"

This yellow scarf is so difficult to deal with, if it weren't for a character like Li Zhi, it's hard to say whether I can still sit here, if there are any red scarves and black scarves, then wouldn't I have no peace? ”

Thinking of this, Liu Hong was furious and said, "Check! Investigate the matter thoroughly! If it is really these evil officials who have persecuted the people against them, they will destroy their three tribes! ”

Saying that, Liu Hong looked at Lu Zhi and ordered: "Lu Qing, I ordered you to inspect the world for me and find out these corrupt officials and evil officials, remember!" It doesn't matter who he is, and don't be soft! ”

As soon as Liu Hong's words fell, dozens of ministers came out and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, slow down!" This is absolutely unacceptable! ”

When Liu Hong heard this, his eyes sharpened, he looked at these dozens of people, and scolded loudly: "Could it be that you have any connection with those evil officials?" Why do you want to talk about evil officials?! ”

really let Liu Hong say that these officials of the family headed by Yuan Feng really have connections with those people, and even most of those evil officials are the lackeys of these families.

At this time, the ministers of the family came out to stop Liu Hong, not for the sake of their protégés and lackeys, but because, if Lu Zhi really investigated the matter, not only would they find out their subordinates, but they would also be implicated.

According to Lu Zhi's upright temper, if he wants to investigate, he will inevitably investigate to the end, and when they are afraid that their official positions will not be guaranteed, Yuan Feng and others tried their best to stop this matter.

After Yuan Feng heard Liu Hong's reprimand, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, we are not speaking for those evil officials, but most of these evil officials are buying official positions. ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Feng raised his head and glanced at Liu Hong: "If Your Majesty punishes them all, then who in the world would dare to buy and sell officials from Your Majesty?"

In this way, won't it cut off His Majesty's financial route? The minister stopped this matter for the sake of His Majesty, and asked His Majesty to learn from it! ”

As soon as Yuan Feng's words fell, Lu Zhi scolded sharply: "Shameless! Buying and selling officials is a big fallacy in the world, how can it be compared with the safety of the world? ”

As he spoke, Lu Zhi bowed to Liu Hong and said: "Your Majesty's business of buying and selling officials and lords must not be done again, those who bought officials and titles, in order to make up for the money they spent when they bought officials, after they took office, they all expropriated and extorted, and they were even more sucking the bones of the people.

The people of the world are unbearable, so they have to sell their capital one after another, and go to other places, and there are some poor people in the family, who have no choice but to join the family as slaves and servants. ”

Liu Hong was also in a dilemma at this time, if he was asked to stop buying and selling officials, then he would really be reluctant.

But if he doesn't stop, wouldn't it be true as Lu Zhi said, when the people of the world have joined the family, without the people, whose emperor will he be? Family? No matter how stupid he is, he understands that these people of the family have never taken him as an emperor in their eyes.

Just when Liu Hong was in a dilemma, a guard outside reported loudly: "Your Majesty, the hussar general is here and is asking to see him outside the palace." ”

"How did I forget him!" Liu Hong's spirit was shocked, and when he thought of the resourceful Li Zhi, he hurriedly said: "Quickly announce that Li Qing will meet ......"
