Chapter 2: Back (5)
Li Tianran was put into the prison car by four or five unscrupulous people in this way, and he didn't say a word from beginning to end, and he was extremely desperate in his heart at this moment. The escape of the murderer brought him a big blow, he never expected to be framed by his own people like this in the end, and he was also a bad handsome Wang Tianbao! Ah Lang hates officialdom and does not want to be with it, but Li Tianran is careful to be righteous, and finally does not listen to Ah Lang's persuasion to join the bad people, and also believes that there is still justice in the world, but it ended like this, and the grief and indignation can be imagined.
And this scene happened to be seen by Li Boyu, who came over, Ah Lang was just taken away, but in less than a moment, his brother was also escorted to the torture car, Li Boyu felt very anxious! But now everyone is watching, but it is not the best time to rescue, so they can only quietly tail behind the prisoner car, keep a distance, and wait for the opportunity to rescue.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the main hall of Huaqing Palace.
The matter of "canonization" on the main hall has been debated for a whole morning! The key point of the matter is not whether Emperor Xuanzong can be "canonized", the honorific title of "saint" has been called for some years, and at this time, everyone is competing with each other, seemingly for the sake of the people of the world, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than their own vital interests! The emperor canonized, the result is likely to be that the right minister will take over the government, so that the right prime minister and the party will surely soar! Li Longji is already a septuagenarian, in his last years, he will die if he doesn't say it well, and then the position of the prince will be particularly embarrassing, and he may really become meat on someone else's chopping board, at the mercy of others! Therefore, the prince's party will definitely fight for the canonization of the matter on the basis of reason, and all the ancestral teachings and regulations have been explained over and over again, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than the fear that the right minister will take power.
Li Longji has reigned for more than 40 years, and he has been decisive in his life, but he has always hesitated in this matter, although he has made it clear that he will be canonized, but he does not dare to clearly point out who will take over the government! As a king, he has to balance left and right, contain each other, once he clearly supports one side, he will give up the other party, after a long time, the supported side with full wings, I am afraid it will be difficult to control, so this matter has not been able to reach a conclusion at this juncture, let the two factions argue with each other on the main hall!
But with the eunuch shouting: "Gonggong Gao enters the palace to meet you!" The argument calmed down again, and the hall instantly became extremely quiet, and all eyes were on Gao Lishi, and it was only at this moment that everyone remembered the slaughter of Yang Zhao's family earlier.
Gao Lishi walked to the foot of the Son of Heaven, immediately bowed down, and said: "Back to the Holy Lord, Li Bai has been arrested!" Now he has been escorted to the forbidden army prison, waiting for interrogation and delivery! ”
Li Longji nodded slowly and asked, "The murderer Li Bai has confessed to what he has committed!" ”
Gao Lishi seemed to deliberately raise his voice, and replied loudly: "I didn't admit it!" It's just that there is something strange about this matter, but he didn't resist much, so he went back to prison with the old minister! ”
"Nonsense! Who is he if he is not? Today, how many people can enter the palace of the commander of the Yulin Army and leave in a dignified manner? As soon as Gao Lishi's voice fell, Yang Guozhong, the right minister on the side, immediately shouted loudly!
Gao Lishi heard Yang Guozhong's words clearly, and immediately his face was displeased, so he responded: "According to the old minister's opinion, the right minister's words are wrong!" The matter of Xing Prison still depends on the evidence, if those who have the ability to do it are murderers, then shouldn't the old minister also be included in the list of murderous suspicions? ”
As soon as Gao Lishi's words came out, Yang Guozhong also felt that his words were incorrect, so he answered: "Gao Gonggong is too worried, this is not the intention, but Li Bai's wanton behavior, drunken gaffe, and nonsense, really have sufficient motives to kill, and his crimes are extremely evil!" ”
Gao Lishi was just about to answer, but Li Longji slowly raised his hand and said: "Okay, don't argue more, what Gao Gonggong said is reasonable, everything needs to pay attention to evidence, this matter will be handed over to Dali Temple for trial, you must not wronged a good person, and of course you must not tolerate a murderer!" As soon as the words fell, the corners of Yang Guozhong's mouth couldn't help but show a hint of imperceptible smile, Emperor Xuanzong seemed to be in the middle, but in fact, he secretly helped Yang Guozhong, this Dali Temple was Yang Guozhong's sphere of influence, if Li Bai entered the Dali Temple, it would not be at his mercy!
Seeing that the matter had been decided, the crown prince Li Xiang immediately stepped forward again and was about to speak, but Gao Lishi preemptively said loudly: "Playing the saint, it's already three o'clock in the afternoon, it's time for the saint to eat and rest for a while!" Gao Lishi knew that if this matter continued to be debated, it would naturally be difficult to come to a definite conclusion, so it was better to cover up for Li Longji.
Li Longji understood and said slowly: "After being reminded by Gonggong Gao, I really feel a little hungry and tired!" Then scatter the dynasty! If there is something to discuss later! After saying that, he waved his hand, and did not wait for everyone to react, but he got together and slowly left with the support of Gao Lishi.
Li Bai was escorted to the forbidden army prison, but Li Tianran was taken to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion. The right prime minister's house is located in Chongrenfang, which is connected to the world-famous Pingkangfang, Yang Guozhong is good at wine, and it is convenient to travel on weekdays, plus the imperial city is also close to Chongrenfang, so choose this square to live.
For the sake of safety, the bad people who escorted Li Tianran walked all the way, so Li Bo didn't find a suitable opportunity to go all the way, and hijacked the prisoner car in broad daylight, he didn't think about himself, but if he was recognized, then Li Tianran would not be able to get out of it. Even if Li Bo is stupid, this can still be imagined. But seeing that the prisoner car was about to drive into Chongrenfang, Li Boyu was also anxious, and he couldn't think of a rescue method for a while.
While he was hesitating, a large number of beggars suddenly rushed out of one of the alleys where the prisoner cart passed, and there were as many as forty or fifty people at a glance. There are many high-ranking officials and magnates between Chongrenfang and Pingkangfang, and it is also surprising that so many beggars appear for no reason, and the beggars seem to think that they are trained, and rush towards the prisoner car together.
This sudden situation also surprised several bad people, and one of them hurriedly drew his knife and shouted: "Stop me!" Don't go closer! But the beggar didn't pay any attention, and still rushed around the prisoner cart like crazy, and was so crowded by the crowd that several bad people were also scattered away from the prisoner cart! The smell of the beggar was very pungent, and the bad people didn't want to mess with it, so they hurriedly covered their noses with their sleeves and retreated to the side. After a while, the beggars finally dispersed...
"Not good! Li Tianran is gone! One of the bad guys shouted in surprise! Everyone hurriedly looked over, only to see that the prisoner car was indeed empty at this moment, only an empty cage remained, but Li Tianran had long since disappeared!
"It must be the beggars just now, chase after it!" Four bad guys chased after him. All this happened so fast that even Li Boyu on the side didn't see what was going on, but now he had to hurriedly chase after him.
After a while, seeing that everyone was dispersed, suddenly a head poked out from under the prisoner car, looked around, and said with a smile: "A group of stupid people, Miss Ben was fooled with a little trick!" Now there's no one, let's go! As she spoke, she beckoned behind her, and another person climbed out from under the car, it was Li Tianran; And the first to poke his head out was the little beggar outside Da'an Fang before!
Li Tianran didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran into the alley behind the little beggar, but just after a few steps, Li Tianran suddenly reached out and grabbed the little beggar's arm, and said, "Murderer, go back with me!" ”
The little beggar turned his head to look at Li Tianran, and roared angrily: "What's the matter with you? I saved you kindly, but you still want to send me to prison? Grace will take revenge, it is better to save you than to save a wolf! ”
Li Tianran took a good look at the little beggar again, and said with a serious face: "You save me and you kill people are two different things!" Besides, I wasn't sent to the prison car because of you! ”
The little beggar suddenly smiled, and then pretended to be gloomy and said, "You also know that I killed someone!" Aren't you afraid? I have secretly observed you, and you should ... You don't know martial arts, do you think you can catch me? ”
Li Tianran didn't think too much about it, and immediately replied: "Whether you can catch it or not is a matter of ability, and whether you can't catch it is a matter of principle. Besides, you also stole the treasures of the Yang Mansion, and at the same time committed the crime of stealing, the crime is added to the first degree! ”
The little beggar immediately rolled his eyes when he heard this, glanced at Li Tianran, and said helplessly: "Hey, I said, aren't you quite smart when reasoning about the case?" Why do you look like a nerd now? Do you have to be more serious? ”
"Jurisprudence and righteousness are not negotiable, but thou shalt ... Let's get caught! The latter sentence Li Tianran himself said was a little unconfident.
The little beggar couldn't help but smile and said softly: "If you think you have the ability, then do it!" I saw who hurt myself in the end! We are evened out just now, and no one owes anyone! With that, he turned around and hurried to leave.
Li Tianran didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly followed.
At the other end of the alley, several bad people panted and caught up with the group of crazy beggars, and under the threat of knives, several beggars finally calmed down and no longer dared to move! The leading bad guy immediately shouted: "What are you waiting for? By whom? What about human offenders? Say it!! ”
Most of the beggars did not dare to speak, and finally one of the beggars replied in a trembling voice: "I... We don't know who is committing it, it's just ... Just now there was a little beggar who said that whoever can run around first and get back to the same place will give a silver ingot, so we... This is ... ”
"Little beggar? Who do you know? Say it quickly, or don't blame me for the knife in my hand! The bad guy threatened.
"Return... Officials, we... I don't know ... The beggar replied carefully.
