The coachman of the Qingpao official was originally a soldier in the army, and he made some meritorious deeds on the battlefield of the Tang Dynasty's conquest of Goryeo.

He was unwilling to go to the military academy and become an official, so he was admitted to the newly built guard battalion by Li Chengqian and sent to protect some important officials of the Tang Dynasty.

The two of them walked all the way from Jiangnan to Chang'an, and occasionally encountered some trouble, all of which were made by the coachman, and the black-clothed thug carried by the young Taoist priest was nothing in his eyes.

Listening to the order of the green-robed official, the coachman stepped forward without hesitation, and knocked the black-clothed thug who was twisting the farmer's father and daughter to the ground with three punches and two kicks.

He turned around and punched the black-clothed thug who was leading the donkey to the ground, and led the donkey cart forward.

The young Taoist priest is a beloved disciple of Daoyi, and he has been rampant and domineering in Chang'an City for more than a year, and he has not been ignored so much.

Seeing that this petty official who had entered Beijing from other places dared to snatch people and things from him because he relied on Li Chengqian, his face turned blue with anger (there was powder on his face), and his neck turned red.

The young Taoist priest's lips trembled for a long time before he hissed, "Take them down for me!" ”

The remaining black-clothed thugs stepped forward to stop them when they heard the order, and the four green-robed officials and the donkey cart did not dare to step forward easily because they were afraid of the coachman.

"Presumptuous! In the blue sky and white sun, outside Chang'an City, you dare to intercept the imperial court officials! The Qingpao official was extremely shocked in his heart, the current Tang Dynasty can be said to be politically sound and harmonious under the governance of Li Chengqian, how can Chang'an City be a bold person.

Seeing that the green-robed official was surrounded, the young Taoist priest's face improved a lot, and he sneered at the green-robed official with a bad face:

"What, scared?

Dao Ye is killing you today, and no one dares to say more. ”

The blue-robed official squinted his eyes and looked at the rampant young Taoist priest, gritted his teeth and said:

"Chen Qi, just do it, kill the person and wrap it on this official, the official will go to Yandu to see him in person, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will also severely punish these demons."

I'm going to fight these Taoist priests to the death.

The green-robed official let go of the cruel words and walked out directly, and the coachman Chen Qier rushed directly towards the black-clothed thug blocking the road without saying a word.

The black-clothed thug was afraid of Chen Qi's might, and he didn't dare to touch him, and he retreated when he saw him rushing over.

When the young Taoist priest saw that he didn't understand what the black-clothed thugs were afraid of, he loudly cheered for the black-clothed thugs: "Go up and kill them, the Taoist master is the one who refines the elixir for His Majesty, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can't do anything to us." ”

The people standing in the distance were shocked when they heard the conversation between the two sides.

Jin Biao Gate is on the north wall of Tai Chi Palace, five years ago, the eldest grandson Wuji recommended a strange person from Tianzhu to Li Shimin to refine the elixir, and Li Shimin ordered him to build a house in Jin Biao Gate to make alchemy.

It's a pity that after a year or two, the Tianzhu Yiren did not refine the elixir, two years ago Li Shimin suddenly fell seriously ill, and the eldest grandson Wuji recommended three Taoist priests, Dao Jian and Dao Guo, to enter Jinbiao Gate to refine the elixir.

It is rumored that the Taoist priest in the past three years is the Qi refiner on Kunlun Mountain, since the time of Qin Shi Huang has not gone down the mountain for 800 years, nearly a thousand years old people are all more than three years old young people.

Dao Jian told Li Shimin that the three of them had cultivated to the Jindan Dacheng, and they would soar in the day in another hundred years, and this time they went down the mountain to select immortal cultivation wizards in the world and accept them as disciples to pass on the Taoist system.

Because seeing that His Majesty's Saint Wen Ruiwu is now in Chang'an, he has entered Chang'an to refine a furnace of immortal pills for His Majesty, so as to increase their merits and help them to cross the tribulation and ascend.

The three Taoist priests did have two strokes, and Li Shimin took their pills and his health improved a lot, which made Li Shimin trust them very much.

The three Taoist priests took the opportunity to say to Li Shimin, they sensed the heavenly opportunity, the Tang Dynasty is coming, and the heavens will send merit to the emperor of the current dynasty, so the emperor of the current dynasty can do twice the work of cultivating immortals.

Li Shimin was very happy to hear this, so he personally appointed three Taoist priests as heavenly masters, stationed in Jinbiao Gate, built a Taoist temple for them, and refined elixirs for him.

Two years have passed now, although the nine turns of gold of the three Taoist priests have not yet been refined, but some elixirs for strengthening the body have also been refined among them, and Li Shimin has indeed had some effect after eating them, which makes Li Shimin trust the three Taoist priests even more.

It's just that these three Taoist priests have always been domineering in Chang'an City, and they also accepted a group of so-called disciples with immortal bones, and these disciples acted even more lawlessly.

Because Li Shimin doted on the three Taoist priests, he felt that they were all people who were expected to become immortals, and it was forgiven for not abiding by some worldly rules.

In the past two years, Chang'an City has been very unseemly troubled by these villains, and no one can cure them with Li Shimin's protection.

Some of the children of powerful and wealthy families had conflicts with these Taoist priests at first, but every time they were beaten by the eldest grandson Wuji or Li Zhi, and after a long time, the children of the powerful and wealthy families in Chang'an City also respected these Taoist priests.

This gave these people the illusion that the entire people of Chang'an City were afraid of them.

Today, these villains have reached the point of having no scruples in the streets of Chang'an City, and both officials and nobles in Chang'an City should not be able to see them committing murder.

Only one thing can be regarded as lucky, Li Shimin handed over many important government affairs to Li Chengqian in Yandu because of his poor health.

Therefore, although Li Shimin devoted himself to cultivating the Tao and immortalizing his life and ignoring the government, the Tang Dynasty not only did not cause chaos, but also became more and more prosperous.

Because of the massive amount of grain shipped from overseas, beggars are rarely seen in all states and counties in the world, and there are basically no starving people to death in the northern winter, and many people say that the Tang Dynasty has entered a prosperous era.

Whoever has the greatest credit in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are well aware of this.

The officials of the East Palace faction almost regarded Li Chengqian as a god in their hearts.

Hearing that the young Taoist priest dared to be disrespectful to Li Chengqian, the Qing-robed official and Chen Qi were both furious, and the two glanced at each other and decided to kill these demons today.

Chen Qi's eyes showed murderous aura and walked forward step by step, he wanted to go to the long knife he got in the car, and then kill them all one by one.

More than a dozen black-clothed thugs surrounding the blue-robed officials were stunned at Chen Qi, and they didn't dare to step forward, so they had to retreat step by step.

Seeing this, the young Taoist priest couldn't stop shouting and insulting the black-clothed thugs, and ordered the black-clothed thugs to come forward to kill, but the black-clothed thugs were afraid of Chen Qi's murderous aura and didn't dare to step forward.

Just as Chen Qi was slowly walking towards their clear oil cart, a rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from the east, and the horses' hooves quickly came to the front from far and near.

The young Taoist priest and the young official all turned their heads to look east, only to see that the east was shining with silver light, and it was a team of Tang knights dressed in bright light armor.

These knights, protecting a vermilion chariot, were coming along the Chunming Gate, a stone track in the middle of the road.

In recent years, Li Chengqian captured many prisoners of war from the grassland and Goguryeo, and after repairing the Yandu City, Li Chengqian arranged for these people to build a gallop road in Chang'an.

The gallop road is laid with stone strips, paved with smooth bluestone slabs, and in the middle of the stone road, four stone trough-shaped tracks are chiseled with Huagangyan.

The four stone trough tracks are just two pairs of tracks, the roads outside Chang'an City are designed in this way, of course, around Chang'an City, ordinary people can not walk on the tracks, only the imperial court and local carriages that transport some materials and officials can walk on the tracks.

When the young Taoist priest saw this group of knights, he knew that a noble man had come from the east. But he is not afraid, he has seen many nobles in Chang'an City, and they are generally polite to him, making him think that these nobles in the world are nothing to fear.

Turning his head to look at the Qinghe official's clear oil car, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Stop them, and when the nobles arrive, they will definitely not be spared." The young Taoist priest ordered the black-clothed thug.
