Chapter 36: The Pan Family

"You two, sell this salt for money."

Li Ke pointed to the refined salt and said to Liu Dali and Zhang Sancai.

The two looked at each other, carried the salt bag, and walked out.

"We are the prince's personal guards!" Out of the palace, Liu Dali muttered.

"What's the matter, what the prince confessed, do you still want to resist?" Zhang Sancai said helplessly.

"But I don't sell anything!" Liu Dali looked at Zhang Sancai with blank eyes.

"Don't look at me, I'm not good at it." Zhang Sancai saw Liu Dali's thoughts and hurriedly hid to the side.

In the west of the city, the streets are full of shouting.

Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali found an open space, put the salt bag on their backs on the ground, and looked at the vendors shouting around them, and the two of them could not speak.

"What are you two doing, young man?" An old woman selling vegetables next to her asked curiously.

"Selling Salt"

"Selling salt? How can there be a seller like the two of you, you should be like a lady, shouting. ”

"Selling bamboo shoots, fresh and tender green bamboo shoots, selling cheaply, only a penny a catty." As she spoke, the old woman began to shout.

"Sell salt, sell salt, sell cheap, salty salt as white as snow, only 30 yuan a catty"

Liu Dali shouted like this.

"Go away."

As soon as Liu Dali shouted, the old woman drove them away with a disgusted face.

"A pound of salt, thirty yuan, I want to go crazy for money."

"At a young age, I learned from unscrupulous profiteers."

The people around who heard the shouting also pointed at the two.

Under the guidance of everyone, Liu Dali hurriedly opened the cloth bag containing salt.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

The white and dazzling granular salt was imprinted in people's eyes, and an exclamation sounded in the crowd.

"Is this salt?"

"Thirty wen a catty, it's still too expensive."

"Profiteers."

"Get out of the way, get out of the way." The outrageous and unreasonable voice rang out from behind the crowd.

The crowd of onlookers crowded to the two of them in a panic, vacating a road.

"You two are not small, you don't say hello, you sell goods privately on the master's territory."

The one who opened his mouth was a man with a full face, five big and three thick.

Behind the man, there were six or seven green skins, looking fierce and vicious.

The people who were still watching just now slowly moved their steps outward when a few people appeared.

"Dead old woman, get out of here."

The man kicked away the old woman who had just spoken, and walked towards Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali.

"These things, the master confiscated them." As he spoke, the man reached for the sack of salt on the ground.

When his hand was about to grasp the bag, Liu Dali's big hand, like a vice, clenched his hand tightly.

Seeing this situation, he took out the machete behind his back and pounced on Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali.

Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali hurriedly flashed back, and at the same time pulled out the knife from the sheath, and held the horizontal knife in their hands.

"Ah, he's a ruthless!"

This group of green skins noticed that the two of them were still wearing knives around their waists.

"Brothers, hack them to death."

A strong man, with a fierce face.

Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali looked at these people who despised human life so much, and there was also a trace of ruthlessness in their eyes.

"I'm three, you're four." After Zhang Sancai finished speaking, the artist dared to fight back.

Liu Dali and Zhang Sancai, as Li Ke's personal guards, are equivalent to masters in the interior, and their strength is naturally not to be underestimated.

With the horizontal knife in hand, which of these seven gangsters is the opponent of the two, three or eight of them, the seven gangsters were macheted to the ground, and the blood was all over the place.

The onlookers scattered in an instant.

The old woman who was kicked to the ground hurriedly got up from the ground and hurriedly packed up the vegetable basket.

said: "Two strong men, hurry up and escape, these people are all the subordinates of the Pan family's tiger master, they ran late, and their lives are difficult to protect." ”

After finishing speaking, the old woman walked away quickly, how could there be any old dragon clock.

Liu Dali and Zhang Sancai also hurriedly picked up the salt bags and returned to the Shu Palace.

"Lord Wang, Lord Wang." As soon as he returned home, Liu Dali shouted.

"Why, the salt is sold out." Li Ke, who heard the call, walked out of the hall.

"It is." Seeing the two of them resisting the salt bag and returning home, Li Ke was confused.

"Lord, we both killed someone." Zhang Sancai lowered his head and said.

Nani, selling salt can kill people. How did these two people do it, force buy and sell?

Under Zhang Sancai's explanation, Li Kecai understood the reason for the matter.

"Motherfuck, go gather the guards." Li Ke said angrily.

"Yes."

Zhang Sancai ran to the backyard of the Shu Wangfu with a happy face.

"Lord Wang, what are you doing here?"

Hearing that Li Ke had gathered the pro-guard army, Quan Wanji hurried over.

As Li Ke's teacher, Li Ke has no faults, and he can't escape the blame.

"It's a trivial matter, and teachers don't have to worry about it." Li Ke smiled.

Looking at the pro-guard army that had been assembled, Quan Wanji couldn't believe that Li Ke was talking about trivial matters.

"Set off for Pan's house." Li Ke gave orders to the pro-guard army in high spirits.

Li Ke took the lead in walking outside the mansion, Liu Dali and Zhang Sancai followed, and Quan Wanji hurriedly followed.

Cao Yu was in the end, leading the pro-guard army and following behind Li Ke.

"Where is the Pan family?" Li Ke turned his head and asked Zhang Sancai and Liu Dali.

"My subordinates don't know." The two of them shook their heads and replied.

It's so embarrassing.

"Go to the West Market, you two lead the way." Li Ke said helplessly.

"Which two eight lambs, dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, find out those two stinky boys, I, Wei Hu, want sky lanterns."

Pan Hu, who rushed to Xishi after hearing the news, looked at the seven subordinates lying in a pool of blood and roared.

Behind him, more than 200 green skins began to scatter, searching for sounds.

"Click, pop."

The sound of neat footsteps came from a distance.

A hint of discoloration flashed on Wei Hu's face.

"Old immortal, tell the tiger master truthfully."

The old woman who sold vegetables was found by Wei Panhu's men, pulled over, and fell in front of Wei Panhu.

"Master Tiger, spare your life! Wife, I really don't know those two gangsters! ”

The old woman knelt in front of Pan Hu, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Don't be ashamed, old woman, you don't want to live."

Behind the old woman, Pan Hu's two subordinates kicked the old woman in the back fiercely.

"Since you don't know, let's bury Dongzi with you!" Pan Hu said calmly.

"Master Tiger, spare your life! Spare your life! ”

The two green skins behind the old woman had already raised the knife in their hands.

"Wait."

At this moment, Pan Hu saw a team appear at the entrance of the street and hurriedly stopped the behavior of the two subordinates.

The old woman, who hadn't felt the pain for a long time, instantly lost her whole body strength and lay on the ground limply.

"Pan family Pan Hu, see the prince."

When Li Ke got closer, Pan Hu judged Li Ke's identity, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted.

"This Wang Xishi has been attacked, and the murderer is being found, and there is no one to do it, get out of the way."

Li Ke saw Pan Hu's more than 200 people, and said with a smile.

"My Pan family is very familiar with this part of the West Market, and I may be able to help the prince."

Pan Hu's expression tightened, and he hurriedly lowered his head and said.

"The corpses of the seven gangsters, how can they be behind Brother Pan."

Li Ke pointed to the corpse that had been collected behind Wei Hu, his face full of doubts.

"I heard that someone in the West Market committed a murder, and the little one is going to send the body to the government."

Pan Hu's heart sank, he was in a hurry, and his face did not change.

"Help, prince!"

The old woman who understood it hurriedly shouted.

Liu Dali and Zhang Sancai, I also saw it now, this is the old woman selling vegetables next to them in the afternoon.

"Lord Wang, if it weren't for this old woman's reminder, the two of us would have died here today."

"The prince, the old mother under the villain, suffers from madness and often talks nonsense, so the villain will let people take her down, so as not to pollute the eyes and ears of the prince."

Pan Hu hurriedly smiled and lowered his head to explain.

"Second son, take your crazy old mother home and take care of it, don't let her run out again."

Pan Hu said to the green skin behind the old woman with a displeased face.

The second son of Qingpi understood, and stretched out his hand to pull the old woman: "Mother, let's go home, go home with my son." ”

"The prince spares his life, he is not my son." The old woman shouted as she struggled.

"Stop, is it crazy, this king has his own decision, and you don't need Pan Hu to do it."

Li Ke no longer pretended, and shouted fiercely.

"Lord Wang, this is a villain's business." Pan Hu's face was complicated and said to Li Ke.

"The pro-guard army listened to the order and took all the people with knives in the West Market, but if there were those who resisted, they would be killed."

At this time, Li Ke was impatient, and he was vain with Pan Hu.

Pan Hu's face was gloomy, his face changed back and forth, and finally he lowered his head helplessly and lowered his hands obediently.

On the other side, in the Taiji Palace, hearing that the Turks had suffered a snow disaster, Li Er urgently recruited the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and Cheng Yanjin into the palace to discuss matters.

Li Erdao: "The alliance of Weishui is my shame!" I want to destroy the Jieli Division, and I will be ashamed before the snow, what good plan do the Aiqing have? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling bowed their heads and discussed.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has learned that the north wind in the territory of the Eastern Turks swept the land, and the heavy snow caused a continuous heavy snowstorm, which not only caused a large number of livestock to freeze to death, but also caused a terrible famine. However, Jieli insisted on going his own way, not sympathetic to the people's feelings, but levied and extorted violently, and started a war, causing the people's resentment to boil, and the internal people were panicked, and many tribes were already dissatisfied with his rule, and elected a new leader to resist Jieli's Bao government. With His Majesty's canonization and co-optation, the Turks are now mired in an internal struggle between the old and new chiefs to seize power. After next year's autumn harvest, when our army will have abundant food and grass, His Majesty will order a large army to march westward, and at that time, it will be too late for the Eastern Turks to organize an effective resistance force. ”

Li Shimin was overjoyed when he heard the words of the conspiracy of the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui.

The Eastern Turkic problem was just around the corner, Li Er looked at the three of them happily and said: "The three Aiqing are worthy of being the pillars of my Tang Dynasty, the right hand of the widow!" ”

As he spoke, he said, "Since the Eastern Turks are just around the corner and do not make much effort, then Goguryeo in the east has become a big trouble for me!" Although Goguryeo is now bowing down to the vassals, it is a sleeping tiger, and at some point, it will devour people and eat them, so you must guard against it! On the side of the couch there is no room for others to sleep soundly. What is the best plan for the three Aiqing? ”

The eldest grandson Wuji, Du Ruhui, and Fang Xuanling glanced at each other, and secretly muttered in their hearts that the Turks had not yet been resolved peacefully, and they began to think about dealing with the problem of Goguryeo.

Will you be so ambitious and repeat the mistakes of Emperor Yang of Sui!

Looking at Cheng Biting Jin, who was on the side, the three of them shouted in their hearts, didn't they talk about wine? I also want to eat meat in large chunks, eat wine in large bowls, and drink heartily!

But if you ask a question, you have to answer it!

The eldest grandson Wuji said worriedly: "Your Majesty, you will die if you are warlike!" Don't forget, the cause of the demise of the former Sui! ”

Du Ruhui could only stubbornly reply: "Your Majesty, King Rongliu of Goguryeo has always been kind to my Tang Dynasty, and even more so to bow down to my Tang Dynasty, and my country has also experienced war for a long time, the people are displaced and need to recuperate, and the people are tired of war." To deal with Goguryeo, His Majesty can solve it with the strategy of Huairou and the strategy of proximity. ”

Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling, who was silent on the side, and knew that he was also planning to do the same, which coincided with Li Shimin's thoughts! So Li Er did not hesitate to praise him.
