Seven days later.

Li Chunfeng returned to the secluded valley, which was still full of land before leaving, but after coming back, it was frozen for thousands of miles.

"I'm back."

Li Chunfeng held his tired body, his clothes were torn, and there were burns on his face.

He experienced both ice and fire, and in order to complete the task, he almost lost his life.

Yuan Tiangang floated over, like a flat boat, stepping on the breeze, landing on the ice and standing with his hands in his hands.

With a flick of his fingers, two bags of gold flew to Li Chunfeng's feet, and said, "This is the remaining money, bring the things." ”

Li Chunfeng didn't rush to get the money, but asked: "I saw in an ancient book that there is a method of resurrecting the dead, which records that water is used as blood, magma condensers, and dragon veins are used to build skeletons, and these three things are exactly what you asked me to find." ”

Yuan Tiangang was silent, he just looked at Li Chunfeng.

"Why don't we make a deal?" Li Chunfeng said.

"You want to take advantage of the fire?"

"No, no, no, I just get what I deserve, 10,000 years of ice water, 1,000 years of magma solution, and 100 years of dragon veins, do you know how many times I almost died?" Li Chunfeng said.

"You want money?"

"Money! Not what I want. "Li Chunfeng is not a person who loves money, and the money he gets is basically scattered among the people.

Otherwise, how could the people call him a "thief"?

"I see."

Yuan Tiangang understood what he was thinking, and said: "From tomorrow, when you enter Chang'an, someone will pick you up, and it will be in vain to go to the court to get an official and a half-job." ”

"Haha!! is worthy of Yuan Tiangang, but my ambition is not in this, since I want to be an official, I must be an official. Li Chunfeng said.

"There is a law in the court, how can I control the appointment and dismissal of officials, let alone an important member of the court."

It is not difficult to serve in the imperial court, but if you want to hold an important official position, it is even more difficult, and it depends on the first-grade prime minister of the court, the second-grade Shangshu, and the third-grade squire, which one is not carefully selected, selected layer by layer, or followed the Tang King to conquer the world.

Li Chunfeng is just a thief in the rivers and lakes, and he is quite famous among the people, but if he wants to be appointed in the court, it is undoubtedly a fool's dream.

"My requirements are not high, I heard that I was the national teacher of the Tang Dynasty back then, so I'll just be like you." Li Chunfeng said.

"What a big breath, just up to you?"

National Teacher?!

How can anyone be a national teacher?

"Of course I can't be a thief, but what if I'm Yuan Tiangang's apprentice? Do you think that's enough? Li Chunfeng said playfully.

Yuan Tiangang understood, Li Chunfeng wanted to use his own name to become a national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

Yuan Tiangang's apprentice! How can it be a general?! And the three words "Yuan Tiangang" are worth a national teacher.

"The position of a national teacher, in exchange for his life, you will not lose this deal." Li Chunfeng said.

"Okay."

Yuan Tiangang is a smart man, he doesn't want to say more useless words, Li Chunfeng is obviously taking advantage of the fire to rob, but he can't help him.

However, it may be more greedy to be someone else, and Li Chunfeng just wants to be an official, and he does not make other rude requests.

After seeing that he responded, Li Chunfeng handed over the things he had taken to Yuan Tiangang and said, "Even if you can save him, you will forget everything." ”

"You don't have to worry about it, I know what to do." Yuan Tiangang said.

"And he takes medication regularly to keep him alive, and you save him as much of a burden, so why bother?" Li Chunfeng reminded.

"Take this letter of recommendation and get out of here!"

Yuan Tiangang doesn't like to be threatened, especially by being choked, Li Chunfeng obviously touched his scales, however, if he asks for it, he must do this.

Taking the money Yuan Tiangang's handwritten letter, Li Chunfeng was full of pride, he returned the money to Yuan Tiangang, and said before leaving: "I don't like to owe favors, and the money will be returned." ”

Li Chunfeng left, and before he left, he left an inexplicable expression, which was difficult to understand, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Maybe he predicted something.

……

Chang'an City.

A letter made a fuss in the government and the opposition, and Li Chunfeng changed from a "thief" in the rivers and lakes to a national teacher of the Tang Dynasty.

I have to say that this incident has aroused the suspicion and dissatisfaction of many people.

But there is no way, Yuan Tiangang's handwritten letter cannot be faked, and Li Chunfeng is strongly recommended in the letter, and said that he is his proud disciple, with the ability to observe the sky, measure good luck and predict the future.

After all, Yuan Tiangang is known as a living immortal-like existence, and his apprentice will naturally not be weak.

On this day, Li Shimin summoned Li Chunfeng alone, and the two came to the Sanqing Hall and asked: "Since you are Yuan Tiangang's apprentice, you must know the principle of the five elements, the art of yin and yang, and you can determine the good and evil in the future, what do you think will happen next?" ”

Li Chunfeng faded away from the momentum of the people in the rivers and lakes, and Yan Ran had the appearance of a fairy wind and bones, he pinched his fingers and said, "Your Majesty will have a big murderer." ”

"The big murderer?"

Li Shimin said incredibly that he still had a grudge against Li Chunfeng's words, others didn't know the details of Li Chunfeng, but Li Shimin clearly understood.

What Yuan Tiangang's apprentices, they are all bullshit.

But since he was recommended by Yuan Tiangang, of course Li Shimin would not ignore him, and it was also a helpless move to make him a national teacher.

Li Chunfeng knew that Li Shimin did not believe in himself from the bottom of his heart, and said: "The minister knows that His Majesty does not believe in himself, but the minister dares to assert that in a few years, His Majesty will have a catastrophe. ”

Seeing that he was so determined, he asked, "Then what kind of disaster are you talking about?" ”

"Don't divulge the secrets of heaven, but the minister can tell you that someone wants to rebel." Li Chunfeng said.

"Presumptuous!"

In front of the emperor, saying the word "rebellion" is equivalent to looking for death, especially the founding emperor like Li Shimin, who started a rebellion and is particularly sensitive to this kind of thing.

"Li Chunfeng, I remember that you have commendable courage and dare to say such bold words, but this matter is not trivial, and you must not mention it to others again." Li Shimin said.

"I understand! You know me, I know, God knows, I know. Li Chunfeng replied.

However, Li Chunfeng's words are not credible, but they must not be disbelieved, believe it, and if you can't believe it, you still need to take precautions.

"Is there a way to crack it?" Li Shimin asked.

"The method of cracking is also simple, Your Majesty is blessed with the sky, and you have the help of heaven and man, you can rest assured."

Hearing him say something suspenseful, Li Shimin was even more confused.

"What is a celestial?"

"Celestials? Naturally, it is a person from heaven, how can a living person go to heaven? Li Chunfeng deliberately said with a dumb riddle.

Li Shimin said indifferently: "I understand, the method of cracking is a dead man." ”

Li Chunfeng spread his hands and said, "The minister didn't say anything. ”

……

After the two monarchs and ministers left the Sanqing Palace, they came to the Taiji Palace.

Today, the crown prince returned to the imperial city from Dali Temple and reported the results of the investigation of Li Yun's death.

Li Shimin didn't have much hope for Li Chengqian, but he didn't expect him to really check some eyes, and I have to say that it was a bit unexpected for him.

Li Shimin has been looking for the secret post that was secretly investigated in the DPRK, but he did not expect to be found by Li Chengqian by mistake.

"Li Yi! I can't believe it's him! ”

When Li Shimin learned that the secret whistle in the DPRK and China was him, the fluctuating emotions in his heart could not be calmed down for a long time.

Li Yi, formerly known as Luo Yi, was the great commander of the former Sui Dynasty, and after the chaos of the Sui Dynasty, Luo Yi returned to the Tang Dynasty.

Later, Li Yi joined Li Jiancheng's command and became his staff, and when Li Shimin and the crown prince competed for imperial power, Li Yi made a stumbling block for Li Shimin.

After the Xuanwumen mutiny, Li Shimin won the world, and Li Shimin did not kill him, but reused Li Yi.

Repaying grievances with virtue, the first year of Zhenguan became a good story of monarchs and ministers, and the title of Li Shimin's virtuous monarch also spread from that time.

Later, Li Shimin also embraced his virtuous and benevolent strategy, and pardoned many of the old Ministries, the most famous of which was Wei Zheng.

But I didn't expect that Li Yi was a thief who was immortal, and secretly communicated with the song, and actually colluded with Li Jiancheng's old ministry to sell important news about the DPRK and China to the enemy country.

No wonder Jieli Khan was able to come to Chang'an quietly, even if there was a Taiyuan royal family, he might not be able to do it unknowingly, it was Li Yi who provided the Tang Dynasty's military defense map to make the Turks bypass all the troops.

Fortunately, Li Chengqian captured Li Yi, and Li Shimin killed Li Yi and the three clans in the name of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

"Prince, you did a good job this time, since the murderer was not identified in the case, but catching the ghosts in the court can be regarded as a great achievement." Li Shimin said.

"Thank you for your father's praise, and your son will definitely continue to work hard."

"Excellent! Humble and respectful, it seems that you have grown a lot during this time, and you are becoming more and more like your eldest brother. ”

Although Li Chengqian doesn't like Li Yun, it's nothing that Li Yun is dead, and being praised like Li Yun shows that he has been recognized by Li Shimin, and Li Chengqian is of course happy.

Then, Li Shimin handed him a letter and said, "Give this letter to your imperial grandfather." ”

In the same imperial city, Li Shimin and Li Yuan rarely met, and Li Chengqian also understood the reason, and said in his heart: "It seems that the knot between my father and grandfather cannot be untied. ”

Li Chengqian happily stepped back.

In the blink of an eye, it has been four years.

Zhenguan 9th year, May.

In the Da'an Palace, Emperor Taishang Li Yuan's body became more and more emaciated, and the imperial doctor asserted that the Emperor Taishang would not live for more than three days.

Li Shimin is in Da'an Palace almost every day, except for the government affairs of the court, and the two are father and son after all, where is there any real hatred.

Four years ago, Li Shimin finally gave in, he obeyed the will of the Emperor Taishang and did not send troops to kill the leader of the mysterious organization.

Just because it is for Li Yuan, it can be regarded as the last filial piety.
