The younger sister Li Zhen was very excited about her brother becoming an official, and sang happily.

"Brother, quickly put on the official robe and let Zhenniang see it, Brother must look very good in the official robe."

Li Xiao didn't like the dark green official robe very much, and a few men liked green. In particular, the green of these six-grade official robes is still dark green, which is greener than the light green of the seventh-grade robe, which is simply green oil.

Although Li Xiao doesn't like the shallow and deep scarlet of the fourth or fifth officials, he thinks it's too sissy. I don't like the purple robe above the third grade, and I think it's too.

But no matter how good it is, isn't it better than green?

Speaking of which, he likes cyan quite a lot, and the green shirt Sima is good. Yellow is actually okay, quite unrestrained, but unfortunately in the Sui Dynasty, soldiers can still wear yellow, but in the Tang Dynasty, yellow can only be worn by the people of the old Li family, especially bright yellow, only the Son of Heaven can wear it.

Being an emperor can be so domineering that he can even monopolize the color.

couldn't stand the girl's liking, Li Xiao finally had to change into an official robe, put it on his body, and went to the edge of the pool to take a look.

Dressed in green, it feels like the heavy armor worn when playing legends in the past, a round-necked robe, with a black gauze hat with wings, plus a pair of uro boots, and a cow belt, which fits well.

"So handsome." Li Zhen watched her brother change all of a sudden, from his usual lazy and idle appearance to the spirit of Ryoma, and couldn't help but applaud.

Really said happy, suddenly outside the village smoke and dust, hooves rumbled.

The lame old Huang who was guarding the village gate limped over, looking panicked.

"Ah Lang, it's not good, the officers and soldiers are here, many officers and soldiers are riding horses, wearing swords, carrying bows and arrows on their backs, and some holding spears and carrying flags."

As soon as these words came out, the people who had come to see the excitement couldn't help but be shocked.

And Yang Dayan, Guo Dabiao and a group of people who followed Li Xiao from Jiangnan at the beginning are even more colorful.

Although the Tang Dynasty is still martial, if there is no military order, the government soldiers will not be dispatched at will. The Tang Dynasty has stationed more than 600 military offices and hundreds of thousands of government soldiers in various parts of the world, but in peacetime, if there is no order from the military department and military talismans, and the general who commands the army dares to privately bring more than five soldiers out of his own jurisdiction, it will be counted as a crime of treason.

Especially here, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, in the center of Gyeonggi, there are military palaces of the Twelve Guards everywhere, and they are intertwined and supervise each other.

In broad daylight, the soldiers of the brigade galloped in full armor, which was by no means an ordinary situation.

A group of people who had rebelled because of famine at the beginning, who had been passionate and generous, and who had been chased and killed by the official army, had no way out, and they clearly knew how crazy the hungry people would be when they were hungry, but they also knew how strong the fighting power of the government soldiers was.

A group of hungry people with farm tools are completely powerless in the face of well-equipped government soldiers.

"San Lang, could it be that our identities have been discovered?"

Guo Dabiao was a little anxious and leaned into Li Xiao's ear and said, he was chased by the government soldiers in Jiangnan to the sky and the earth, but fortunately, Li Xiao fled to Guanzhong with them.

At the end of the days of escape in Guanzhong, the days of escape are getting better and better, everyone has even forgotten the original rebellion days, forgetting that they are actually still fugitives, and they can even sleep peacefully, no longer frightened overnight.

"Don't panic, it shouldn't be." Li Xiao felt that it was unlikely, if their identities were discovered, they would have been discovered long ago, and they would not have waited until now.

Doctor Zhao looked at his son-in-law and Da Biao muttering something and walked over.

"San Lang, your body and official uniform are not privately faked, right?"

"Ayemo is joking, it is a crime to make official seals privately, how can I do such a thing."

The soldiers are coming, the water is flooding, Li Xiao feels that no matter what the situation is, he has to face it.

"I'll take a look."

Da Biao and Zhang Cong, Liu Garlic and a few others made a look, "guy, protect San Lang, if you really have something, fight San Lang to kill him." ”

Doctor Zhao's eyelids jumped when he heard it, what kind of nonsense did Ah Biao say.

However, although those villagers were frightened one by one, no one had fled at this time. Some young people even shouted, "San Lang has always been kind to our fellow villagers, we can't let San Lang be bullied." ”

"Yes."

A group of young people responded.

"Don't panic, everyone, I am now an official of the imperial court, and no one can mess around here." Li Xiao shouted, don't be excited by Da Biao and a few of them, incite an uprising or something, then it's over.

Li Xiao led everyone to the village gate, and he was still wearing a green official robe.

At that station, there was a group of old and young standing behind him, but there was also a bit of momentum.

"Whoever comes, report the name." Li Xiao saw that the other party had at least 100 horsemen, all of them were well-equipped, and they were by no means private escorts, this was definitely a regular imperial army.

In the Tang Dynasty, even the prince secretly hid a hundred pairs of armor, which was a crime of rebellion. Even if the soldiers usually prepare their own ordnance, but the ordnance must also be the standard ordnance built by the imperial court, the government soldiers pay to buy from the Weifu, and receive it for use when training or going out, once they go home to farm, those armor, spears, hard bows and other equipment have to be stored in the Weifu arsenal.

At most, he can bring a horizontal sword home, and if anyone dares to bring armor, spears and other weapons home, or even openly take them to the street, he is looking for death.

However, Li Xiao didn't know much about the Weifu Army of the Tang Dynasty, and he couldn't see their banners or recognize their numbers.

A big bearded man kicked his horse forward.

"You are Li Xiao?"

Li Xiao deliberately reached out and dusted off his dark green official robe, which he had just put on and had been disgusted and complained about for a long time by him just now, and said loudly, "This official is Li Xiao, the new supervisor of the corn of Sinong Temple in the imperial court, who are you waiting for?" ”

The man was burly and strong, more like a pig butcher than Da Biao.

He chuckled twice, then gestured to the men behind him.

Bow his hand to Li Xiaoyi, "A certain is the left guard and rushed to Yu Chengji." After speaking, he looked at Li Xiao with some smugness and added, "It's five grades." ”

Li Xiao was unhappy, he didn't expect a rough man to jump out casually, he was actually several levels higher than himself, he was from the sixth grade, but this big man was under the fifth grade.

Zhengwupin's Zhichong Captain, this is the lowest-level Zhichong Mansion's chief general. There are three levels in the Tang Zhechong Mansion, one thousand and two in the upper class, one thousand in the middle, and eight hundred in the lower class. The main general of the Zhichong Mansion is the captain of the Zhichong Mansion, the upper house is on the fourth grade, the middle mansion is under the fourth grade, and the lower mansion is under the fifth grade.

"It turned out to be Captain Yudu, disrespectful and disrespectful, I don't know what happened to bring my subordinates to my Lijiazhuang?"

The official level crushed people to death, but after all, this is the private residence of the Li family, and Li Xiao is not a military attaché, a person of two systems, Li Xiao is not afraid of him.

"I still like others to call me the Duke of Pingjian County, and this title is still the reward I received with Emperor Taizong during the bloody battle in Liaodong."

Listening to this person's tone, it is obvious that he is looking for trouble.

But he didn't know where he offended this Pingjian County Prince.

"Can the public of Pingjian County have official business?"

"Of course there is, how dare I bring troops here without me? Li Xiao, I am on the order of the political affairs hall to come to you to collect corn seeds, you don't delay my time, hurry up and bring the corn seeds, I can quickly collect the team and return to Beijing to return to my life. ”

Taking corn seeds, Li Xiao looked at Yu Chengji, about forty years old, a very powerful rough man, his official position is not low, a lieutenant of Zhichong, and a lord of the county duke, such a person came with a hundred left guards cavalry to ask for corn seeds.

"Since it is an order from the Political Affairs Hall, Li Xiao should abide by it, but there must be a credential, otherwise it will be difficult for me to make a mistake when I arrive. I was also bothered by the county magistrate to show the order documents of the government hall. ”

Yu Chengji's face was not good-looking, "What's the matter, you still don't believe in so-and-so?" ”

"It's not a question of believing it or not, but since everyone is on official business, we have to go through the process." Yu Chengji's words made Li Xiao feel more and more that there was only a problem in this matter.

If Yu Chengji is just arrogant to nothing, after all, this person is a big official, and he also has the title of county duke, but this person refuses to give orders, which can only show a problem, he doesn't have it at all.

Li Xiao knows the importance of corn.

In addition to the one corn cob that had already been handed over to Li Zhi, Li Xiao now had six corn sticks left in his hand, and he would not easily hand over this thing.

"Li Xiao, don't belittle the general."

"Can't you take it out?" Li Xiao snorted coldly, "I'm afraid that what you said about the order of the government hall is false, and it is true that you have served someone's private order, right?" ”

He just said another trick.

Sure enough, as soon as this sentence came out, Yu Chengji's face became even worse, and his eyelids trembled a few times.

"Hugh is talking nonsense, I don't have time to play tricks with you here, hurry up and take out the corn seeds, I know you still have six corns here, don't play tricks with me."

These words made Li Xiao even more sure of this political order that Yu Chengji did not have at all.

Things are getting weird.

To be able to let a dignified county official lead soldiers to come and ask for corn seeds, this person's energy is definitely not low, especially since this is still the land of Gyeonggi, and it is not easy to dispatch a hundred cavalry.

As long as Li Xiao thought about it deeply, he had already guessed a few people behind the scenes.

can't escape the prime ministers of the patriarchal faction of the eldest grandson Wuji in the political hall, and the reason for coming to ask for corn is estimated to be simple, obviously to deal with Li Ji and the Son of Heaven.

After all, Li Ji understood what he told him that day, and he also saw a little bit when he was eating the porch meal, because of the corn incident, Li Ji and the eldest grandson Wuji had already officially opened the shelf.

"Captain Yu Du didn't have the order of the political affairs hall, and he didn't have the military talisman of the military department, so he dared to come to me with so many armed men to grab corn without authorization, I don't think you are the Pingjian County Duke and the left guard Zhichong Lieutenant Yu Chengji at all."

"Lao Tzu is Yu Chengji."

"You're not."

"Grandpa is."

"You're not."

Li Xiao said to him with contempt.

Yu Chengji was angry to death, he thought it was a simple errand, but it was not easy to deal with a countryman, and he could scare him casually with a hundred horses, not a matter of being caught.

However, why is this country man so daring?

"Do you pay or not?"

"You first prove that you are Yu Chengji, and then take out your orders."
