The next day, Liu Liang and Li Zichun came to the painting boat again, and this time, Li Zichun brought a box of gold cakes, a real 500 gold.

The old bustard collected the gold, and the beauty made people bring Luo You and the other five girls over.

She said with a smile on her face: "Zhao ...... Liu Gong, Li Ye, and the slave maid are guaranteed by the head, and the five girls Luo You and Lan Qing have not gone through personnel and are very clean. ”

Liu Liang nodded with satisfaction, since he wants to be sent to the palace, of course he needs to be a virgin.

He warned: "You'd better tell the truth, if something goes wrong, you won't have enough ten heads to cut off!" ”

The old bustard shrank his neck in fright, waved his hand again and again, and said, "The slave doesn't dare!" Slaves and maids would never dare! ”

Liu Liang looked at the five girls again and confirmed that they were correct, so Li Zichun took them and went home.

On the way, Li Zichun asked with a smile: "I heard that the Yin nobles are known as the first beauties in the world, King Zhao, I don't know how the Yin nobles compare with Luo You?" ”

Liu Liang smiled and said, "In terms of appearance, Miss Luoyou is really not as good as a Yin noble!" ”

Li Zichun was shocked when he heard this, in his opinion, Luo You is a face, a shocking existence, it is hard to imagine that there is a more beautiful woman than Luo You in the world.

He frowned and muttered: "In this way, I'm afraid that Luo You may not be able to enter His Majesty's eyes......" Liu Liang smiled indifferently, waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry about this Zichun." ”

No matter how beautiful a woman is, she looks at it every day, she looks at it every day, and she gets tired of seeing it one day, but Luo You is different, for Your Majesty, she is very fresh! While the two were talking, the carriage suddenly shook and came to a sudden stop.

Liu Liang and Li Zichun in the car leaned forward and almost hit the car board.

Liu Liang's face sank, and he asked outward, "What's the matter?" ”

As the curtain opened, a servant stood outside the car and whispered, "King, there is a car in front of you blocking the way." ”

When Liu Liang heard this, he frowned.

He poked his head out of the car and looked out, and the car was parked in the city gate hole, and on the opposite side of his car, there was also a horse-drawn carriage, and the two carriages met in the city gate hole, and no one could get through.

Seeing this, Liu Liang's face sank like water, and asked, "Whose carriage is on the other side?" ”

"The little one is going to ask!"

The servant put down the curtain, waved his hand and ordered the subordinates around him, and shouted loudly: "Go, go, go over and ask, which is the way to be a king who is not long-sighted!" ”

As the king of Zhao, the uncle of the Son of Heaven, or the adoptive father of the Son of Heaven, Liu Liang is definitely one of the best people in Luoyang, whether it is a relative of the emperor or a minister of the court, when he sees Liu Liang, who is not allowed to give three points?

Liu Liang's status is noble, and even with him, the domestic servants and slaves below are all over-eyed, and there is no one in his eyes.

Two burly servants walked up to the carriage opposite, looked up, raised their hands, and shouted, "Who is sitting in the carriage?"

Get out of here and talk! ”

"Presumptuous!"

The entourage next to the carriage glared at the two domestic servants and said, "This is the car of the right middle general, what should you be guilty of if you speak disrespectfully?" ”

The two servants glanced at each other, and then they both laughed out loud and said, "Who should I be, it turned out to be Zhang Han, the right middle lang general!" ”

"Bold! Dare to call the general by his name! ”

A soldier in military uniform walked up to the two servants and glared at them.

"Calling it by name?

Hum! ”

A domestic servant sneered and said: "Lao Tzu not only dares to call Zhang Han by his name, Lao Tzu also wants him to kneel down and admit his mistakes!" ”

When the soldier heard this, he raised his eyebrows in anger and reached out to grab the servant's collar.

But before his hand touched the servant's clothes, the latter suddenly raised his hand and clasped the soldier's wrist, and then, with his other hand, he reached forward and grabbed the soldier's belt, and he threw his arms outward, shouting, "Get out of here!" ”

The soldier screamed and hit his head on the wall of the city gate, and there was a crisp snap in the ear chakra, and the soldier's helmet was deformed, blood gushed out, and the man lay on the ground, only a few convulsions before he moved.

Seeing that he had killed one of his brothers, all the soldiers present were gone, and they all raised their spears and rushed forward.

Seeing this, the two servants not only had no fear, but laughed, held the hilt of their swords, and said proudly word by word: "If there is anyone who is not afraid of death, just come here!" ”

"Stop!"

With a broken drink, a general in his thirties came out of the carriage, and this was Zhang Han, the general of the right middle lang.

Right Zhonglang will be a subordinate official of Guangluxun, whose main responsibility is to guard the palace gate, and when the Son of Heaven travels, he is responsible for guarding the chariots.

The right Zhonglang general's Yu Lu is the same as the captain of Si Li, both of whom are more than 2,000 stones, and they are not petty officials.

Zhang Han got out of the carriage, first looked at the soldiers lying on the ground, who were already dying, and then looked at the two domestic servants and asked, "You killed the people?" ”

"A dog thing that doesn't have long eyes, it deserves to die!"

When Zhang Han heard this, he was furious, and shouted: "Take down these two thieves for me!" ”

Before the officers and soldiers present had time to step forward, a voice came from behind the two domestic servants: "Which one of the people I think dares to touch my Zhao Wangfu?" ”

Zhang Han looked up, his face changed suddenly, and he saw Liu Liang, the king of Zhao, walking towards under the protection of several plainclothes guards.

He frowned secretly, no wonder these two evil slaves were so arrogant, in broad daylight, they dared to hurt people's lives, it turned out to be King Zhao's people.

He bowed down and said, "Zhang Han, the right lieutenant general, meet King Zhao!" ”

Liu Liang walked closer, looked at Zhang Han, and then looked at the corpse on the ground, snorted heavily, and said: "General Zhang, you know that this king is going to enter the city, and you still grab the road with this king, what do you want?" ”

Zhang Han's body was shocked, and he hurriedly said: "King Zhao misunderstood, the minister didn't see King Zhao's car about to enter the city." ”

Liu Liang looked at Zhang Han coldly, nodded, turned his head sideways and asked, "Where is the captain of the city gate?" ”

After a while, an officer ran over with a few soldiers in a panic, he first looked at the situation in the city gate cave, and when he saw the dead people, he grinned secretly, and hurriedly bowed down to salute, and said: "Weichen see King Zhao!" ”

"You are the captain of the city gate of Xiaoyuan Gate?"

"It's Wechen!"

"This king's car is going to enter the city, why do you still let Zhang Han's car drive out of the city?

Are you intent on letting Zhang Han block the king's way? ”

The captain of the city gate trembled, and hurriedly bowed down to salute and said, "Weichen doesn't dare!" ”

"Don't dare?

I think you're so bold! You deliberately connived at Zhang Han and collided with this king, today's matter, this king will never give up! ”

At this time, Liu Liang felt that he was greatly offended, and the captain of the city gate and the right lieutenant joined forces to sweep his face.

He asked, "You have insulted this king so much, but what does Your Majesty mean?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Zhang Han's cold sweat broke out.

The captain of the city gate buzzed his head and almost fainted.

As soon as his legs were weak, he knelt directly on his knees, kowtowed forward, and said in a trembling voice: "King Zhao spares his life!" King Zhao spares his life! ”

The captain of the city gate, the lieutenant of the ruling Jinwu, and the lieutenant of the Northern Army, these are the three locks guarding the capital, and now the dignified captain of the city gate kneels and kowtows in front of Liu Liang, begging for mercy, which makes Liu Liang feel that his face has been restored.

He looked down at the captain of the city gate, snorted heavily, and said: "This time, this king will spare you for the time being, if there is a next time, this king will be severely punished!" ”

With that, he waved his robe sleeves and turned back to the carriage.

Before getting into the car, he turned around and glanced at Zhang Han coldly, and said meaningfully: "Don't think that if you serve in the palace, you can see no one, in the eyes of this king, you are a fart!" ”

Zhang Han lowered his head and didn't say a word.

As the so-called official level crushes people to death, King Zhao is not a matter of one or two levels for him, one is a foreign minister, the other is the uncle of the Son of Heaven, the dignified King Zhao, the identities of the two are completely incomparable, and the difference is 108,000 miles! The captain of the city gate got up from the ground and quickly asked Zhang Han's carriage to exit the city gate cave and make way for King Zhao's car.

Liu Liang sat in the carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage, glanced at Zhang Han and the captain of the city gate standing against the wall with the corner of his eye, and sneered.

Li Zichun in the car said with a smile: "King Zhao, why should you be so angry and angry with a mere right lieutenant general and captain of the city gate!" ”

Liu Liang snorted coldly and said: "These foreign ministers, thinking that His Majesty is favored, can do whatever they want, and even this king dares to ignore it and be lawless!" ”

"Oh, what King Zhao said is not right! In this world, who else dares not to take King Zhao in his eyes?

Even His Majesty has a lot of respect for King Zhao! ”

Li Zichun said with a smile.

When Liu Liang heard this, his gloomy face was finally soothed, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a broken shout from outside the car: "Stop!" ”

Immediately after, the carriage shook and stopped.

"This is another one who doesn't have long eyes!"

Liu Liang's lungs were about to explode.

He lifted the curtain of the carriage window and looked forward, only to see two men in sackcloth and linen pants blocking the carriage's way.

Without Liu Liang to speak, the servants of Zhao Wangfu stepped forward one after another and scolded angrily: "Damn, are you blind?

Dare to block King Zhao's car, don't you want to live? ”

The two young men in linen clothes and linen pants glanced at each other, and the taller young man said: "King Zhao's car, of course we don't dare to stop it, but King Zhao can go over, as for the two of them, they have to leave it for me!" ”

As he spoke, the tall young man pointed to the two domestic servants who had just shot and injured people.

"Fuck you! Who the fuck do you think you are? ”

The servants shouted indignantly.

The two young men lifted the placket of their clothes, took out a sign from each of their waists, raised it forward, and asked, "Look, can we leave the two of them behind!" ”

The servants looked at it and saw that the sign was written with the four big characters of the Central Capital Government.

Seeing the Zhongdu Mansion, the faces of all the servants changed, and they involuntarily took two steps back.

The highest official of the Zhongdu government is none other than the lieutenant of Si Li.

The Zhongdu official prison under the rule of the Zhongdu government is even more creepy.

At the beginning, it was the Zhongdu official mansion set up by Emperor Wu, the heyday of the Zhongdu official mansion, there were 36 Zhongdu official prisons, it was easy to enter, but you could think of it again, and you had to peel off the skin if you didn't die.

After Liu Xiu came to power, he first abolished the official prison of the central capital, because the official prison of the central capital is also a bureaucratic system in the final analysis, and in Liu Xiu's view, there is really no need to exist so many prisons at the same time, which will cost the imperial court a lot of money.

Later, Liu Xiu reused the lieutenant of Si Li, and the Zhongdu government under the rule of Si Li was quite effective, reporting illegality, punishing corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and arresting more people, so it was natural to need prisons, so Liu Xiu re-established the Zhongdu official prison, but the Zhongdu official prison also changed from the previous 36 to one.

In short, in the early stage of Liu Xiu's administration, it was how to save money and how to come.

If you can not set up an institution, try not to set it up, and if you can not use more officials, try not to use it, and save as much money as possible for the imperial court is Liu Xiu's core idea.

The Jinyi Guard established in the Ming Dynasty, in a sense, is to imitate the Zhongdu government, but its scale is much larger than the Zhongdu government.

For the emperor who lacks self-confidence, looking at any minister is like having two minds, and it is like wanting to rebel against himself, so he needs to have a huge secret service to monitor the hundred officials and the people of the world, only in this way can he feel at ease.

For a self-confident emperor like Liu Xiu, there is no need for these spy organizations, and the Zhongdu government is in Liu Xiu's hands, and it is only an institution used to report officials for illegal behavior.
