"The situation in Hebei has reversed to the point that it is out of control, visit:. Now is the time to clean up the mess. ”

After Li Chun said these words painfully, he was relieved and felt much better. He took a deep breath and said: "I will not protect him if he loses the army, but I want to protect you, but the current situation is turbulent, and leaving you in Chang'an will inevitably be injured by mistake." You go to Zhengzhou to be the assassin of the history, and the deputy envoy of the righteous army, and replace Li Quanzhong in the future to guard the east gate for the country. ”

At this point, Li Mao had nothing to say but to thank him.

It is undoubtedly a denigration to release the history of the four-grade assassination from the Sanpin Jingguan, as for Li Chunliu's backhand, the sacred heart is unfathomable, and no one can measure the depth for a while.

Knowing that Li Mao was going to Zhengzhou, Qin Niang and others were busy packing their luggage, Li Mao didn't want to take everyone there, but no one paid attention to it, and they all packed their luggage one by one.

Li Mao smiled bitterly: "You have seen through it, and you have seen that I have been degraded this time and it is difficult to turn over." Qin Niang said: "Bah, bah, bah." Hugh said this frustrating words, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, Your Majesty will be considerate of your grievances, and when the limelight is over, you will still be used as a loyal and good general. Lan'er said: "How can our Lang Jun be defeated so easily, I am optimistic that you will definitely be able to make a comeback." ”

Qi Yan lowered her head and said, "I can't speak, but Mr. said that Lang Jun's life is extremely rich, and he will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune and become auspicious in trouble." Because there is a word "heart" in the name of the current queen mother, Qin Niang suggested that Qi Xin change her name, so as not to cause trouble, Li Mao took four words for her to choose, and Qi Xin asked her son to help her choose, and as a result, she chose the word "Yan" and changed her name to Qi Yan.

Li Mao asked Su Ying: "What do you think?"

Su Ying said: "I'm an outsider, so I naturally listen to a few sisters." ”

Li Mao praised repeatedly, so he appointed Qin Niang as the envoy of the soldiers and horses in the tent, and unified the relocation of the women in the house, and decided everything by himself, without asking for instructions on everything.

The crowd laughed for a while before they dispersed.

Li Mao sat upright and closed his eyes to recuperate, feeling more and more sleepy, so he went back to the study, and the three assistants Zeng Zhen, Mao Dayou, and Cai Wencai got up to greet each other, Li Mao just smiled faintly and said to the three of them: "The court degraded me to guard Zhengzhou, if you don't want to go, just stay, and if you want to go, pack up and leave another day." ”

The three of them said in unison: "I am willing to follow the general." ”

Li Mao was stunned for a moment, and said lonely: "It's not a general, it's not." ”

Li Mao served as the assassin of Zhengzhou, and the rest of the part-time jobs did not move, only Zuo Longxiangjun's part-time job was gone, and if it was gone, it was gone, Li Mao said it easily, but in his heart he seemed to have been stabbed, and it hurt badly when he thought about it.

There is a dark room in the study of the Earl of Gushan's Palace, which is divided into two, the outer room is the study, and the inside is the bedroom, only a bed is lined up, and the middle is separated by a screen.

Li Mao was so excited that he didn't want to do anything, he leaned lazily on the recliner, and the female assistant Zeng Zhen took a pocket and came in to pack up her belongings, and when she saw Li Mao lying down and resting, she was about to quit.

Li Mao shouted: "Don't go." ”

Zeng Zhen stood still, crossed his hands and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Pinch it for me."

Li Mao had a belly of fire, and he had been enduring it, seeing that he couldn't bear it, but because Zeng Zhen appeared, it disappeared instantly, Zeng Zhen was not yet twenty years old, no matter how good looks, temperament, and talent were all top-notch, especially her slightly sad eyes, which were as deep as the sea and full of inexhaustible mystery. Sugar hua

Massage for Li Mao is a very important job for Zeng Zhen, she was born in a family of eunuchs, since she was a child, she lived a good life, and in her childhood, her father committed a crime, and the female dependents in the family did not enter the palace, and her life has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Li Mao took a fancy to her peaceful and open-minded mentality, so he accepted her as a female assistant, but he didn't expect her appearance to be so beautiful and refined, and her temperament to be so elegant and beautiful

She came into this world like a piece of jade, and encountered unspeakable suffering in the middle, and after the suffering, she was still innocent and noble, and those sufferings did not leave any stain on her soul.

Zeng Zhen is a little afraid of Li Mao, of course she can't be blamed, Li Mao is silent, especially in the office, many words will not be said clearly, and he needs the careful understanding of the assistant, he is strict with his work, strict requirements for the people around him, he comes and goes without a trace, and sees things accurately and tricky, often making his assistants at a loss.

Of course, her fear is not the same as Mao Dayou and Cai Wencai's, her fear has more deep meaning in it.

"Yes, yes, comfortable, really comfortable."

Zeng Zhen massage methods are learned in the palace, Daming Palace collection of the world's beauties, not to mention 3,000 people, in such a place of flowers, how easy it is to get ahead, in addition to the unavoidable opportunity, the palace maids are also doing their best, reading and learning art, enriching themselves, always ready for the fleeting opportunity of the favor.

"Zeng Zhen came out of the palace during the Yongzhen period."

"Hmm."

"How much was released in that batch?"

"Three thousand."

"Three thousand, there are not many beautiful and intelligent people like you."

"I have a bad temper, and I can't be called beautiful and intelligent."

"Well, your beauty, intelligence and talent are beyond doubt, you say you have a bad temper, but I think you have a good temper, I have never seen you angry."

"So they were afraid of me, and they suspected that my good temper was fake."

"So isn't it?"

"No, I really have a bad temper."

Li Mao's eyes opened, as soon as he grasped Zeng Zhen's delicate wrist, he reached out and wrapped his arm around her small waist, and with a little force, Zeng Zhen fell into his arms. Zeng was really anxious, and he didn't struggle, he pulled off the golden hairpin on his head and stabbed Li Mao's face without hesitation.

Li Mao grabbed her hand, snatched the golden hairpin, and said, "You look terrible when you're angry. ”

After finishing speaking, he gently pushed her away, Zeng Zhen evened out his breath, straightened out his crumpled clothes and makeup, and said coldly: "I regard you as a respectable teacher, please respect yourself." lest I hurt you later. ”

Li Mao's cheeks were slightly red, and he silently handed the golden hairpin back to Zeng Zhen.

After returning from defeat, he suddenly vomited and was uneasy, and soon after returning to Beijing, he fell seriously ill, but after coming out of the Qingsi Palace, he finally breathed a long sigh of relief, when the sky was full of stars, and the night breeze in late summer and early autumn was neither hot nor cold, and it was very comfortable to blow on his face. Tu Cheng Xuan stretched his waist and patted his knee, which was still a little stiff.

"I've finally passed this hurdle."

The old eunuch had a kind of pleasure for the rest of his life, he easily put his hands upside down, his waist was as straight as possible, his chest was straight, his head was raised, and he didn't take two steps, his waist collapsed, his head drooped, and he returned to his former appearance.

"Alas, we're used to low eyebrows, if we want to walk with our heads up and chests, we can't walk."

As soon as Tutu Chengguang came back, Liu Xiguang came to visit, it was late at night, and he came and went in a hurry. It was also late at night, and he was still in a hurry, and he slipped out of the palace with a needle.

"It's finally landed safely, but I hate Li Dingjin and Lu Congshi, who have completely ruined the good plan. Zhongxing's plan suffered such a setback, and these two people are unforgivable. Liu Xiguang said hatefully, although Tutu Chengguang passed the test in a thrilling way, he lost the throne of the lieutenant of the Zuo Shence Army, and this blow was not light.

"Don't talk about this, after I leave, what will everyone do."

"Oh, I'm going to the Buddha hall to discuss Buddhism with Master Jingyi."

"Master Jingyi is the former Master Jingyi, and when did she become a master. Well, that's pretty good, too. ”

"It's good, but Li Jiang is very annoying now, buzzing in front of you like a fly, oh no, it's a swarm of flies. He also has several fellow party members, one of whom is named Bai Juyi, who is said to have a good relationship with Li Mao. ”

"Li Mao, Li Maodou, I don't know a few big characters, and my knowledge is not as good as mine, Bai Juyi will mix with him Bai Juyi, I have heard of it, Bai Letian, it is said that the poetry is very good. But all such people are arrogant, and he will mix with Li Mao."

Liu Xiguang said: "Li Mao is also a poet. ”

Suddenly vomited Chengguang took a sip of hot tea and almost didn't spray Liu Xiguang's face: "Li Mao is a poet, what poems has he done?"

Liu Xiguang said with a smile: "I have only done a few limerick poems, but he is still very famous among the scholars in the capital, and recently he often participates in the poetry meetings organized by the scholars in the capital, which is said to be very respected." ”

"He is a good plan, he may not be respected, his popularity is certain, people are rich, and he is generous, and those poor men are naturally going to do their best." When Tutu Chenghuang said this, his eyes suddenly showed a fierce light: "I am unlucky this time and I am unlucky in his hands, if he doesn't say goodbye, I will be defeated?"

Liu Xiguang pursed his lips, a little disappreciative in his heart: The commander of the three armies is you, Li Mao is just a staff officer, whether he goes or not, what does it have to do with the overall situation, and when he leaves, the situation in Hebei is still very good, you are a typical monster pit, naturally this can only be said in his heart, Liu Xiguang did not dare to say it clearly. Although his current status is above Tutu Chenghuang, he understands that with the relationship between Tutu Chenghuang and the emperor, it is not the time to fill the garlic in front of Tutu Chenghuang.

Liu Xiguang nodded and said, "It's hateful, but now is not the time to move him." ”

Tu Tu Chengguang smiled: "You can't help but think that I am too chicken-gut, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years." ”

The day before Li Mao went to Zhengzhou, Li Jiang and Bai Juyi, a bachelor from Hanlin, came to see each other off, and on the second day, the Son of Heaven was going to set up a banquet in Xiyuan to entertain the envoys from Nanzhao, and the two had to accompany them throughout the whole process, and they could not go out of the city to see them off.

Bai Juyi and Li Mao have been famous for a long time, but they have never had the opportunity to meet. In addition to being an official, the latter is also keen on poetry and writing, and because of the lack of money for organizing the literary society, he became acquainted with Li Mao through Xibao's recommendation. Bai Juyi's literary name, thousands of years later, Li Mao is also like thunder, naturally happy to meet, after getting acquainted with it, he knows that Bai Juyi is not only literary and romantic, but also a strong general in the officialdom, with keen eyes, quick thinking, and often has unique insights into the current situation.

At that time, Li Mao's identity was very embarrassing, and he was often "protected" by Zuo Shence guards around him, and it was not easy to go out. Bai Juyi's poetry club gave Li Mao great convenience, and it was really a good reason to meet friends with poetry.

Of course, meeting friends with poetry is the patent of literati, and as for Li Mao, it is inevitable that he will have a notoriety of vassal elegance, so that he even spits on Chengguang suddenly, and he doesn't think so.

Li Jiang and Bai Juyi came here, and the send-off was just a reason, but they actually wanted something else. Bai Juyi bluntly said that Tutu Chengxuan lost his army and framed Zhongliang, if the court can't set things right and investigate his guilt, I am afraid that no one will be willing to contribute to the court in the future.

And if you want to bring down Tutu Chengxuan, you must have tangible evidence, and hit the snake seven inches.

"Tutu Chenghuang is a big poisonous snake, powerful and venomous, and he is bitten by a snake if he doesn't die, it's not a joke." Bai Juyi's expression as a fighter, if he didn't know the details, it would be difficult to associate his hideous face with the splendid chapters under his hands.

Li Mao thought for a while and asked Li Jiang and Bai Juyi: "Do you have to do this, the reason why Your Majesty didn't punish him is just to save face for himself, and when things cool down, he will definitely give an explanation to the people of the world." As for General Fan Situ and General Li Dingjin, His Majesty did not accept what Cheng Xuan said about him, but instead issued an edict to comfort his family. I think that when everything is clarified, there will be a proper solution to the matter. ”

Bai Juyi said: "Public opinion is turbulent, people's hearts are clear, if you don't punish the sudden vomit, I am afraid that it will damage the virtue of the Son of Heaven." Mao Hua must not abandon justice for personal friendship. ”

Bai Juyi pressed forward step by step, which made Li Mao feel a little unhappy, but instead of blaming Bai Juyi, he was grateful. He said this for his own good, public opinion can also kill, Bai Juyi knew that he had a close relationship with Tutu Chengxuan, and he was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he reminded him, which was also a good intention.

Li Jiang was much more steady, he asked Li Mao: "You are going to Zhengzhou tomorrow, don't you want to leave with peace of mind?"

Li Jiang meant something, after Tutu Chenghuang returned to Beijing in order to protect himself, he bit everywhere, looking for a scapegoat, Lu Congshi was far away, Li Dingjin was near, and even Fan Xichao, Li Quanzhong, and Tian Xing were not spared, and he was slandered in front of the emperor without a complete body, Fan Xichao is dead, it doesn't matter, Tian Xing supports the army and stands on his own, no one can help him, Li Quanzhong is in a very difficult situation now, it is said that he has fallen ill because of fear.

As for himself, Li Mao will definitely not let go if he wants to vomit Chengxuan, otherwise he will not be demoted out of Beijing and go to do the work of Zhengzhou Assassin History, the emperor drew a big cake and told him that you go out first, do two years of Assassin History, and then replace Li Quanzhong as the Jie Du Envoy, from the Assassin History to the Jie Du Envoy seems to be only one step away, but no one can say how many variables there are.

During this period, he allowed Tutu Chenghuang to stay in the capital, stay with the emperor, and let him slander him with his poisonous tongue, how many chances he still has to be promoted to the festival and return to the capital

Li Mao finally satisfied Li Jiang and Bai Juyi, and the two returned with a full load and a comfortable mood.
