Zhang Potian's question was passed out of the hall in waves, and almost everyone couldn't help laughing, but there was a solemn expression on their faces, for fear of being seen by Xiangguo, when Zhang Potian's last sentence was asked, the atmosphere in Hanyuan Hall suddenly became tense, as if it was glued.

Cui Yuan's eyes that had been slightly closed slowly opened, it should be said that the current situation is not out of control, and it is still in his expectations, since Zhang Potian came out, he knew that it would be this result, it is not important for Cui Xiong to take the gong, the important thing is not to involve Cui Qinggong.

So he still has one last hand: to put the blame on the marching Sima who recorded the merits.

He was about to speak, but Cui Qinggong stepped forward first, forced his eyes to look at Zhang Potian and said, "Then how do you explain the evidence I cited?" ”

"Proof! Is it the broken sword and the so-called confession? Zhang Potian shook his head disdainfully, "My sword will become like that if it burns for two hours, can I say that I am the one who burned the military rations?" As for the confession, it's even more ridiculous, didn't the little general say that he touched it at night? And it hasn't been discovered yet, how did the Hui people who recorded the confession know that it was the little general who burned the grain? Are they still pinching their fingers at God? ”

"You!" Cui Qinggong finally became angry, and he shouted angrily, "Zhang Potian, do you mean that I can't make a fake?" ”

"Enough! Stop arguing. Cui Yuan waved his hand to stop their words.

He had been observing the movements of Pei Jun and Chu Xingshui, and saw that the two of them had the same expressions from beginning to end, as if they were standing on the clouds and watching the battle below.

It can be seen from this that these two people are their own people, especially Chu Xingshui, he still has a handle in his own hands, since he refuses to accept his proposal to marry, then he simply returns the post of Zhexi Observation Envoy that he has been obsessed with, and there are two Huai Cao Yun envoys can also be given to him, I believe that his position will be loosened.

In this way, even if Zhang Ruoho comes back, the final battle situation is still 4 to 3, and he Cui Yuan will win steadily, so if this is the case, he will take a step back today and push back the time for Cui Qinggong to enter the cabinet.

Thinking of this, he immediately turned around and gave a salute to the Li Department, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the New Year's Dynasty is arguing over such a trivial matter, hurting the harmony of his colleagues, it is really unnecessary, this matter will be investigated slowly after the Dynasty, if it is really Cui Xiong's meritorious work, the minister will not tolerate it, and will definitely give an explanation to the people of the world, but it is now nearly noon, and all opportunities are waiting to be taken care of at the beginning of the new year, so today's Dynasty will end here, what does Your Majesty think?" ”

Pei Jun and Chu Xingshui glanced at each other and nodded, Cui Yuanken took a step back, then there was room for negotiation, if everyone tore their faces, it might not be a good thing.

Things seemed to be about to end like this, just when the ministers in the hall were slightly relieved, an accident happened, only to see Li Department smiled faintly, beckoned to Zhang Huan and said: "Zhang Huan, just now you said that you were diving into the grain depot, and you were interrupted by Wang Shangshu later, and you have been hanging my appetite, why don't you go on, how did you enter the camp?" And how did they avoid the patrols of the Hui people? How to escape in the end, these are things I want to know. ”

The smile on Cui Yuan's face froze at this moment, as he himself said, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it cannot be measured by imagination, and the court is not a battlefield, he has considered everything, but he has ignored the outsider in front of him, the Tang Emperor Li Department.

He immediately realized that things had become complicated......

The Hanyuan Hall was very quiet, so quiet that even the wind howling outside could be heard clearly, and the more than 1,000 court officials in the hall were like clay sculptures, and even their breathing seemed to stop.

Zhang Huan slowly walked up the jade steps, standing next to Cui Yuan, he first smiled friendly to Cui Yuan, bowed down to Li Shi, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, we actually climbed down the cliff from the back mountain of Ma'anling, at that time we were a total of six people, including Wei Shangshu's son Wei Qing, we first touched into a camp tent closest to the cliff, and together we killed the sleeping Hui soldiers, changed into their military uniforms and went to the grain village, but the Hui Hui were extremely tightly guarded, and they couldn't enter at all, and then my five companions climbed back to the cliff, I was the only one left to sneak into the grain village from the water to light a fire, and I also escaped from the water afterwards. ”

"Your Majesty! Zhang Huan is not bad at all. Zhang Potian pointed to the map and said with a smile: "The ministers have been dealing with the Hui people for many years, and they know how strict they are in guarding the grain, and it can be seen from the map that if you want to burn the military rations, you must go in and light the fire, and you can only enter by water. ”

Li Xie nodded slightly, he glanced at Cui Xiong and said, "General Cui Xiao, do you still insist that you used rockets to light the fire?" ”

Cui Xiong lowered his head and was silent, but at this time Cui Qinggong had a seizure, he snorted heavily, and said brutally: "My son is an honest man, he has always been bullied, obviously it is his credit, but it was taken away by those who can only say that they can't do it, Lao Tzu just doesn't accept it!" ”

Zhang Potian glanced at him and said disdainfully: "Cui Qinggong, the truth is in front of everyone's eyes, if you have to say that the military rations of the Hui people were burned by your son with rockets, then you explain to me, how did he shoot two hundred steps away with a bow of one hundred and ten catties, and he shot it on the hay stacks in the second row?" ”

Cui Qinggong's eyes showed a fierce light, he stepped forward, stared at Zhang Potian gloomily, and said: "My son didn't say that he shot outside, he also dived inside to shoot, can't he?" ”

．．．．．．．．

On the banks of the Chunming River in Daming Palace, hundreds of important ministers of the Tang Dynasty gathered on the shore with the Son of Heaven Li Department, silently waiting for an upcoming dragon and tiger battle, and they wanted to use facts to distinguish who was the hero and who was the presumer.

The Chunming River meanders from the east, named because it runs parallel to Chunming Street, it is an artificially excavated small river, which leads the water of the moat to the Taiye Pool of the Daming Palace, and the weeping willows are clinging all the way, and dozens of various exquisite bridges cross it.

About 300 paces away from the ministers, on the first round-arched Danfeng Bridge, Zhang Huan and Cui Xiongjing were bare-chested, waiting for the order to go down to the river, and under their feet, a large hole had been carved in the thick ice, from which they would enter the water until the Jinque Bridge, which was 800 paces away.

It was a battle that mimicked the scene of the time, with a few guards patrolling the shore every twenty paces, like the Hui patrol that night, and there were no ice holes in the river for ventilation, and they had to dive to the Gorse Bridge in one go.

When the time came, Li Department glanced at Cui Qinggong coldly, and ordered in a low voice: "Let's start!" ”

"Your Majesty has an order, begin!"

Zhang Huan moved his hands and feet slightly, and swept towards Cui Xiong with the corner of his eye, only to see him biting his lips, his face had frozen to blue and purple, and his body was shivering in the cold wind.

Zhang Huan smiled slightly and said, "General Cui Xiao, you can't do it, it's better to put on your clothes and warm up, let me come first!" ”

Cui Xiong glared at him fiercely, and as soon as his eyes closed, he jumped off the bridge, "Plop! It was like a huge weighing stone falling into the water, stirring up a two-foot-high splash.

"What a brainless guy!"

The moment Cui Xiong entered the water, he suddenly heard Zhang Huan's faint laughter above his head, "If I can't dive first, won't you win without a fight?" ”

．．．．．．．．．．

"Someone jumped!"

"It seems to be General Cui Xiao....."

The hundred officials on the shore were in a commotion, and the originally orderly queue began to be chaotic, and many people ran along the riverbank, trying to find Cui Xiong's traces through the thick ice cover, but they could not see anything except a piece of white flowers.

Cui Yuan stood next to the Li Department, his face was expressionless, as if the person who jumped into the river had nothing to do with him, yes, today's court meeting brought him too many surprises: the ice-breaking reconciliation of the two, Pei Jun's secret cold arrow, and the Li Department's sitting and reaping the profits, all of the above need him to calm down and scrutinize carefully, and if he is negligent, his ten years of hard work will go to waste.

Contrary to Cui Yuan's indifference, Cui Qinggong was like a monkey with his tail chopped off, so anxious that he roared and screamed on the riverbank, he ordered all the guards to go to the ice to find his son, he knew better than anyone else, Cui Xiongmo said eight hundred steps, I am afraid that he would not even be able to dive a hundred steps.

Sure enough, about a hundred steps away from the Danfeng Bridge, a guard heard a faint knocking sound coming from under the ice, "General, here!" He didn't seem to be able to do it. ”

Cui Qinggong was stunned for a moment, he suddenly went crazy and snatched the halberd in the guard's hand and slammed it down on the ice, but the ice was too thick, and only cut out white marks, he was so anxious that he turned around and scolded, "Bastard!" What are you still doing there? Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards began to dig the ice together, and soon a large hole was dug open.

One of the guards jumped down, and a moment later, he rescued a dying Choi Woong from under the ice.

"Quick! Send him to the Imperial Doctor! Cui Qinggong was so anxious that he hurriedly took off his coat and wrapped it tightly around his son.

"Cui Shuai, do you want to continue?" The leader of the guards hesitated and asked, the matter is already obvious, do you need to compare it any further?

"Go on! Who gave him permission not to jump? Cui Qinggong's face sank, he pointed to the ice cave that had just been cut, gritted his teeth and said, "Cover me here, and you all go ashore for me!" ”

At this time, the exchange of heads and ears of the hundred officials stopped, and everyone's eyes were on Zhang Huan's body, a distance of eight hundred steps, this is simply incredible, can he?

Chu Xingshui, who had been silent, suddenly remembered what Cui Yuan said, this Zhang Huan seemed to have something to do with him, and unconsciously, he also squeezed to the river and looked at Zhang Huan worriedly.

"Your Majesty, why don't you stop! Lao Chen is really worried about Zhang Huan. Cui Yuan suggested to Li in a low voice.

Li looked back at him, and said with a faint smile: "If you stop now, is it unfair to General Cui Xiao?" If he can't swim, then the military rations will be burned, which can only be providence. ”

With that, he waved his hand and coldly ordered: "Order him to start!" ”

"Your Majesty ordered Zhang Huan to start!"

Zhang Huan took a deep breath, and in the exclamation of the hundred officials, he jumped high, as if wearing Lin Ruyan, and his body drew an extremely graceful arc in the air, silently penetrating into the water, and disappeared in an instant.

At this time, several guards found a thick wooden plank and prepared to cover the ice cave where Cui Xiong was saved, but as soon as they ran to the ice cave, they happened to see a black shadow swimming through the water very quickly, like a foraging shark, brushing the ground and disappearing, several guards were stunned, and for a moment, they pointed to the ice cave and shouted in unison.

Hearing that Zhang Huan had swam a hundred paces, the officials on the shore became agitated again, and they ran along the river, trying to spot Zhang Huan's shadow, but no one could find him.

Time passed little by little, half a pillar of incense had been burned, Zhang Huan still did not move, Zhang Potian, who was waiting by the Golden Bird Bridge, also began to be a little anxious, it stands to reason that Zhang Huan should have arrived, could it be that something really happened to him?

At this time, Cui Yuan secretly glanced at the Li Department, and saw that there was a disappointment on his face that could not be concealed, and a trace of pride flashed in his eyes, Cui Xiong couldn't pass, Zhang Huan couldn't pass either, and the presumptuous statement was not valid.

Suddenly, there was a shout from the side of the Dishui Bridge in the distance, "Zhang Huan is out of the water, out of the water!" ”

Cui Yuan's heart suddenly sank, the Dishui Bridge, which was two hundred steps farther than the end point of the Golden Bird Bridge, that is to say, Zhang Huan actually swam a thousand steps away in this breath.

As Zhang Huan raised his arms and jumped up from the water, the officials finally couldn't help cheering, this cheer was filled with the joy of victory, and this cheer also showed that the truth had finally surfaced, and any explanation became extremely pale at this moment, and the iron truth was the best footnote to the truth.

Cui Yuan suddenly became furious, pointed at Cui Qinggong and shouted: "Look at the good things you Fengxiangjun have done, you dare to pretend to be someone else's credit, it is really an unforgivable sin. Fengxiang Army's marching Sima Wang Han performed meritorious service for Cui Xiong without authorization, and should be recorded as the first crime and sentenced to death with a cane; Cui Qinggong was not strict with his son, and he was exempted from the Duke of Zhaoyuan County and fined for one year. ”

At this time, Li slowly walked in front of everyone with his hands behind his back, and he smiled slightly at Cui Yuan: "Xiangguo, I also have a reward and punishment, I don't know how to count?" ”

Cui Yuan hurriedly said in a panic: "Your Majesty is the king of a country, how can you not count what you say?" ”

"Alright, I'll make the order." Li Xianyi raised his head and said in a loud voice: "Zhang Huan burned the food of the Hui army, causing the Hui to retreat, thanks to Sheji, and was specially awarded the Yulin Army Guoyi Lieutenant and Zhaowu Captain, with a reward of five million and five hundred silk; The other five servants were all given the cloud knights, and each was rewarded with a million dollars. ”

Zhang Huan was already dressed, and when he heard the order, he bowed and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty Longen!" ”

Li Department nodded slightly to him, glanced at Cui Qinggong again, and said coldly: "As the commander of the Fengxiang Army, but he took the merit, the crime is unforgivable, and I will pass on my will, remove Cui Qinggong from the post of Fengxiang Festival Envoy, and Duan Xiushi, the envoy of Hedong Festival, will take over as the envoy of Fengxiang Festival, and Zhang Potian will be the envoy of Hedong Festival, Qin this!" ”
