"Your Majesty's dictation, ordering Li Xiannan to go to the capital on the same day and enter the palace to face the saint, there must be no mistake." Eunuch Wang Dechang suddenly said with a forbidden.

"Princess, Your Majesty, why is this?" Li Zhonghua asked after receiving the order again.

"Although the lord has only been crowned with the title of a county man, it is also the only person other than the emperor's relatives since His Majesty ascended the throne. Since our family followed His Majesty, we have only heard of His Majesty's knighthood, and knighthood has never been a thing.

According to the usual practice, the knighthood must be in front of the civil and military officials, and when he was in the court, His Majesty personally rewarded him, so it is not surprising that His Majesty summoned the Lord, if His Majesty did not summon the Lord, it would be very strange. ”

Of course, Wang Dechang will not tell Li Zhonghua the real reason, although the emperor did not tell him the reason for the summons, but Wang Dechang has been in the palace for so many years, from the Great Sui to the Tang Dynasty, serving three generations of emperors, and he has already become a fine character, plus the recent situation of the eldest grandson, there is no need to guess, he knows it.

"When you enter the palace, you will see yourself, and the man in this county will still come back!" After working hard for half a year, he finally settled down in Shu and bought a farm and a house, Li Zhonghua was really reluctant to leave like this.

"Your Majesty has already given the lord a county man's mansion in Chang'an City, and the lord estimates that he will not be able to return to Shu in a short time."

Since Chang'an City already has its own county men's mansion, it is possible that he will not have time to come back in a few years, and Li Zhonghua will of course take his family away.

When he returned to Chang'an again, with Li Ke, the king of Shu, with him, he naturally didn't need to worry about safety, at least that's what Li Zhonghua thought in his heart.

After the eunuch Wang Dechang was ordered to leave Beijing, in the prince's mansion in the East Palace, the crown prince Li Chengqian was restlessly walking around.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, the King of Shu has made a great contribution this time, and after returning to Beijing, it will definitely seriously threaten your position.

"Lone is the crown prince, the eldest son of his father, he has been young and orderly since ancient times, even if the credit of the king of Shu is great, he can't shake the status of the prince of Lone. Brothers kill each other, once the matter is revealed, the consequences are too serious. How could Lone take such a risk? Prince Li Chengqian shook his head and said.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't forget, Your Majesty was not the prince at the beginning, and now he is not the emperor."

"It's ......." Li Chengqian's hands were clenched into fists, and after a long time, he finally nodded slowly.

His Royal Highness the King of Shu returned to Beijing, and the civil and military officials of Yizhou came to see each other off one by one, and at the same time, many people who rushed to hear the news also joined the send-off team.

After this smallpox epidemic, Li Ke, the king of Shu, also gained a lot of fiefdom people's hearts, but many of the people who saw him off were also coming for Li Zhonghua.

No matter who it is, if you are really good to the people, the people will be grateful in their hearts, and the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.

After sending off Li Ke, the king of Shu, in the Yizhou Thorn Mansion, Cao Cui, the Thorn of Yizhou, was full of gloom.

Li Zhonghua was suddenly knighted, and he was also recalled to the capital to see the driver, which made him very unhappy, and the beauty that was at his fingertips was completely lost.

"Lao Tzu was born and died for so many years, and he made countless military exploits, so he has today's status, and it is just a state assassin history, that kid just offered a plan, controlled the smallpox epidemic, and then knighted him, and rewarded so many beauties, and killed the old man."

Although the Yizhou Assassin is a feudal official from the third grade, and the grade is much higher than that of the county man from the fifth grade, but in fact, there are times when it is not possible to simply look at the grade, and those who have an official position may not have a title, although those with a title may not have an official position, but except for the emperor, no one can do anything to him, except for the emperor, no one dares to punish him.

Although Cao Cui is a member of the Yizhou Assassin History and a member of the Sanpin, he was not knighted.

"The history of the assassination, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a secret letter delivered."

Cao Cui took the secret letter, opened it, ordered someone to take tea, took a sip, and suddenly opened his mouth to spray it on the letterhead.

"Is the prince finally going to do it? God help me. ”

A group of people smoothly out of the Shu realm, into the Jinzhou of Shannan West Road, not far from the capital Chang'an, everyone's home, most of them are in Chang'an, leaving the capital for four or five months, and they are very worried about their relatives at home.

The mountains in Jinzhou are high and densely forested, the Qinling Mountains and the Daba Mountains meet here, the terrain is treacherous and complex, and there are often bandits who fall grass in the mountains.

However, most of these bandits are not very powerful, and there are not many people, and they usually dare not attack the team of court officials, let alone the convoy of Li Ke, the king of Shu.

There are thousands of guards of the King of Shu, although they have strengthened their vigilance as usual, but they have not taken those bandits to heart, assassinating the prince is a big crime of punishing the nine clans, and the thieves who fall into the grass are not afraid of death, but they do not dare to joke with their nine clans, so no bandit will be stupid to want to intercept and kill the prince.

There is a mountain in Jinzhou, called Phoenix Mountain, the terrain is very dangerous, stretching for more than 40 kilometers.

At this moment, there was a team of nearly 1,000 people ambushed on the mountain, all dressed in black, holding chaotic weapons in their hands, dressed as bandits.

The convoy of the King of Shu is slowly passing under the Phoenix Mountain, which is the only way back to Beijing, and it is also the only official road.

Suddenly, the shouts of killing shook the sky, and people all over the mountain rushed down from the mountain.

The guards of the King of Shu did not expect that someone would really be so bold as to dare to attack the team of the King of Shu, and they were caught off guard for a while.

Fortunately, these guards were all battle-hardened men, and after a short period of confusion, they finally organized an effective resistance.

The force of these black-clothed people is not weak at all, at first glance, they are very experienced people on the battlefield, and they are very tightly organized, they are really not like ordinary bandits, and their goals are very clear, and they go straight to the car of Li Ke, the king of Shu.

"Kill! Except for the woman, none of the rest remained. The leader of the men in black shouted loudly.

I saw Li Ke, the king of Shu, flying out of the sedan chair, jumping on a war horse, holding a spear in his hand, without the slightest fear on his chest, and with a shot, he assassinated a man in black who wanted to get closer.

Li Zhonghua didn't expect that someone would intercept and kill Li Ke, the king of Shu, halfway, and he was a little scared in his heart, and even regretted that he shouldn't go back to Beijing with the team of the king of Shu.

When he fled from Chang'an to Yizhou, he hired a team of dart masters to protect him, and he was safe, which shows that this time he was absolutely completely affected by the King of Shu.

"Xianggong, what should we do?" Yang Xue was also disgraced at this time and was frightened.
