Chapter 7: The Demon King of the Mixed World
Outside the gate of Chengfu
"Uncle Cheng, dad can be at home," Cheng Shi, the eldest young master of the Cheng family, asked silently.
The housekeeper replied, "Young Master, the master is having a banquet in the house."
"Second brother, let's go in" Cheng Chumo pulled his second brother Cheng Chuliang into the door.
In the main hall of the house, a tiger with a bear's waist, a face like a big cake with a beard, the armor on his body was torn to the ground, the golden helmet was thrown aside, and he was grabbing the leg of mutton with his hand and gnawing on it, muttering in his mouth, "Damn, where do you have to go to break the yamen every day to sit on duty, I am depressed, Lao Tzu is a dignified prince, and now I can only go to Jinwuwei as a guard, and I am angry with those stinky sesame seeds and rotten grains every day." "Needless to say, it must have been an unpleasant errand to skip work, and slipped back home from the yamen to prepare for a big meal and drink.
Cheng Biting Jin, formerly known as Biting Jin, later changed his name to Zhijie, the word Yizhen, a native of Dong'a, Jeju (now southwest of Dongping, Shandong). The founding general of the Tang Dynasty and one of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Cheng Yanjin successively joined the Wagang Army, voted for Wang Shichong, and later descended to the Tang Dynasty. With Li Shimin, he broke Song Jingang, captured Dou Jiande, and descended to Wang Shichong, and sealed the Duke of Su with merit. Participated in the Xuanwumen Change, the governor of Luzhou, the general of the left leading army, changed the title of Lu Guogong, and inherited the history of Puzhou Assassin.
Don't look at his vulgar appearance, those who know Cheng Yanjin know that this guy is an unscrupulous actor, the skill of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger is superb, and he often makes others fall on the road without noticing, and he is strong and strong in martial arts.
And with the first general of the Tang Dynasty Qin Qiong, Qin Shubao is the general horn of the friend, when Cheng Biting Jin and Qin Qiong gathered in Wagang, he was elected by everyone as the leader of Wagang Village, nicknamed "the demon king of the mixed world", who knew that this meat man did not sit on the top spot for two days and gave up the position of the leader to Li Mi, the prince of Pushan County, after Li Mi led the army to fight Wang Shichong was defeated and captured, and then surrendered, Li Shimin, who was still the king of Qin in the second year of Wude (619), led the army to attack Luoyang, Cheng bit Jin to judge the situation, and said, "Wang Shichong is a deceitful person, shallow and narrow-minded in his knowledge and demeanor, and likes to swear by gambling curses. Not a monarch who sets things right! ”。 Contact Qin Qiong to vote for Li Shimin on the battlefield. has repeatedly ensured Li Shimin's safety and said that he is blessed. It is also Cheng Yanjin's keen and wise style that allowed him to enjoy his old age through the four dynasties of Li Yuan, Li Shimin, Li Zhi, and Wu Zetian.
Cheng Chumo said, "Dad, the two of us saw a royal carriage parked in the Qin Palace, as if it was sending someone, and there was a team of Xuanjia Army on guard, Dad, you said it is strange, only from His Majesty to the throne, and no one has been to the palace for a long time." ”
Cheng Chuliang also responded, "Yes, Dad, isn't it that Your Majesty left the palace and paid a private visit to Weifu?" ”
Cheng bit the golden eyeballs and rolled his eyes and said, "Get out, it must be a noble person from the palace, if Your Majesty leaves the palace, the old man, Jin Wuwei will not know, you two bastards have been swaying all day, it seems that it is time for you to go to the military camp to exercise, don't be short like a girl in the family for a day." ”
The housekeeper Cheng Bo came in and said, "Master, Lord Shima, the chief of the Jinwu Guard, asks to see you." Said there was an urgency. ”
"Xiaguan, Ma Changze, see General Cheng," Ma Changze saluted and told Cheng Yanjin the ins and outs of the group of people in the yamen, and specially pointed out that this matter involved the royal family, Li De asked him Cheng Yanjin to meet, so he Ma Changze did not dare to ask the general to deal with it.
Cheng Biting Jin rubbed his beard and thought for a while, "I ask you, what does Li De look like?" ”
Ma Changze replied, "The bearing of the view is extraordinary, the posture is upright, the face is resolute, and he is about twenty-five years old. ”
Cheng Yanjin recalled: "Hell, this kid named Li De dares to call the old man by his name and say that he knows so-and-so." It is said that he is still out of the palace at this age, and his age is not as good as those princes, not to mention the princes and ministers, even the prince has only reached the year of dancing elephants, so he can only be the heir of the emperor. There's no one named Li De, it's really weird. Okay, let's go and see this Li De, if you dare to deceive Yu, you must let him know how powerful your own public is. After speaking, he waved his hand and walked out of the Guogong Mansion, rode his war horse and ran towards the Jinwuwei Yamen. The two boys of the Cheng family also secretly followed.
Li De sat on the stool leisurely and chatted with Yun Niang next to him without a word, behind him Tong Qing, Luo Ping, and the tea served by the little official did not move, not that he didn't want to drink, but he had seen such high-end goods as boiling tea at the moment, Li Dejing thanked him, he really didn't dare to compliment, what onions, ginger, garlic, ghee, mutton fat were thrown into it all in one go, that sour and refreshing can be abused, you don't want it, anyway, he can get out immediately when Cheng Biting Jin comes, or go back to drink cold water to be comfortable.
The two fathers and sons of the Wu family looked at Li Deyou's unbeaten, gritted their teeth indescribably, and wanted to chew him up and rub him back and forth with their shoes. Then clean up Yun Niang's slut well,. Li De dared to pretend to be Cheng Biting Jin's meat, he would definitely be beaten by Cheng Biting Jinjiao, he didn't even know his mother, thinking that Li De would be ugly immediately, and when he was cleaned up by Cheng Biting Jin, their father and son went up and let out a fierce breath, and the two fathers and sons said at the same time, "You just snort, when General Cheng arrives to expose you and deceive him, you must make your life worse than death." ”
Li De laughed, and his eyes were full of contempt without saying a word, which made the two fathers and sons about to have a seizure, when they heard the soldiers at the door report "Lu Guogong." General Cheng has arrived! ”
Cheng Biting Jin in front, Ma Changze in the back, and Cheng Biting Jin sat straight on the main seat and said: "I heard that some people here say that they are old friends with a certain person, which one stood up for the old man to see." ”
Li De replied, "It's exactly below."
Cheng Yanjin looked Li De up and down, thought left and right, didn't think about which number one person this was, and asked, "I don't know you, do you have identity credentials, but do you have royal jade butterflies?" It can be seen what the crime of deceiving the government should be. ”
Li De said, "There is no certificate, and neither does Jade Butterfly." ”
The father and son of the Wu family seized the opportunity to jump out and said, "Lu Guogong, this guy must have deceived you, and he still beat the good people and insulted the government, and he should be punished with capital punishment to set an example!" ”
Cheng Yanjin looked at the Wu family father and son and said: "Shut up, Lao Tzu didn't ask you two" Just because Li De faced him as a general of Lu Guogong and was not taken by his own momentum, he could still be so relaxed, and his bearing did not fall, he was not an ordinary person. ”
Li De smiled and said to Cheng Yanjin, "It seems that it has been too long, and the general doesn't care if he forgets his old friend, I can give you some hints below,"
"Yangzhou Anti-King Conference, defeat Qin Shubao with one blow, repel Luo Shixin with two blows, and beat Pei Yuanqing away with three hammers!"
"On the Purple Mountain, raw tearing, Yu~~Wen~~CD!"
"Tear~~" Cheng bit Jin didn't take a breath and his eyes bulged out, and he fell off the seat when he flipped back, ouch felt that he had met a ghost, three feet and two steps up to grab Li De's arms, stretched his head forward, his face was almost attached to Li De, and slowly the beads of sweat on his face flowed down, his back was cold, and the hairs on his whole body exploded, and he jumped back quickly, trembling all over his body and thinking of who this was, who else could this be, when Qin Qiong was the first fierce general in the world today, cutting the flag was like probing for something, Even the black charcoal captain Chi Gong can only be relegated to second. Who else can defeat Qin Qiong with one blow, he was also there at the anti-king conference that year, of course he knew that Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, and Pei Yuanqing were all defeated by him with one blow, and there was a majestic sea, Wu Yunzhao and Wu Tianxi surrounded him to fight, and he swung the hammer in his hand, hitting three weapons, and when it sounded, the three of them shook open their mouths and left in defeat. The indispensable general of Tianbao, the commander of the Xiaoguo Army of the Sui Dynasty, Yuwen CD, fought in the Purple Mountain and was torn apart by his life. This person's identity is about to come out!
"Old minister Cheng bites gold, meet the brave general, King Zhao of Xifu!" After the battle, Cheng bit Jin Tianren and bowed to Li De on the ground.
Cheng Biting Jin's worship frightened the Wu family father and son on the spot, even Ma Changze and Yu Chi Baolin were stunned, Cheng Biting Jin's personality they couldn't be more familiar, and they didn't expect that this was the Li Yuanba who had the power of four elephants in both arms, tore Yuwen CD alive, and defeated the eighteen-way anti-king Li Yuanba with a double hammer.
Cheng Yanjin saw that these people were still in a daze, and he didn't give Li Yuanba a salute, and suddenly drank: "Don't come and see King Zhao soon, you can't die if you want to!" ”
Ma Changze just woke up like a dream, and a spirit also followed Cheng Biting Jin to the ground, "Xiaguan, Jinwu Wei Changze, Shi Ma Changze, have seen King Zhao." ”
Yu Chi Baolin "is lowly and has seen the prince." ”
Although Yun Niang didn't know which king of Xifu Zhao was, she also panicked when she heard that it was a prince who was about to kneel, and was pulled by Tong Qing behind her, and shook her head to signal that she didn't have to kneel, Li Deneng must have thought the same for this little lady.
When the father and son of the Wu family heard this, they knew that this was actually Li Yuanba, and what was even more frightening was that the legend that Li Yuanba would go berserk if he disagreed, and the light one would be killed with a hammer, and the heavy one would be torn apart. The two fathers and sons thought that they had been embarrassed and plotted to retaliate against Li Yuanba, and suddenly they the ground with their heads again and again, and shouted in unison, "The king spares his life." The king spares his life. ”
Li De didn't expect Li Yuanba's name to be so loud, and he shocked everyone at once, it was very dark, it was worthy of being a humanoid beast, and he really wanted it. loaded a handful of Li De and said, "Okay, Cheng Fairy, others don't know about you, I don't know yet, don't get up for me yet, I'm angry, Lord Ma, please get up, Baolin also get up." By the way, I'm not the king of Xifu Zhao now, the second brother named me the king of Wei, I don't want to publicize it yet, I can't do it today, you have to help me keep it a secret."
Cheng Yanjin and Ma Changze stood up, but the father and son of the Wu family didn't hear them get up, and they didn't dare to move on the ground. I'm afraid that I will be killed in the next moment.
Cheng Yanjin quietly walked over and asked in a low voice, "Congratulations on the resurrection of the prince, the prince, the old minister guesses that this matter should be related to the vision that happened in the Taiji Hall last night."
Li De also said softly, "It's your cleverness, if you have something to go back to my house, you will continue to clean up these two pieces of garbage first." ”
Cheng Fairy asked loudly, "Lord Qi, how did the father and son of the Wu family fall, please show the prince." ”
Li De said, "You two rest assured, I am now convinced by virtue, and I will not use you privately, but everything will be done according to the law, Ma Changshi." These two goods will be handed over to you, and you can judge how you want, I said. ”
Ma Changze hugged his fists and said, "Obey the order of the prince, the lower officials will definitely enforce the law impartially, and someone will put the Wu family father and son in prison, immediately check the evidence of the past crimes of the two, and announce the verdict on a later date." ”
The soldier asked for the order and pulled the father and son down who were like mourning and taking a fart.
Cheng Fairy stepped forward and said, "The prince might as well go to my mansion, so that Lao Cheng can give you a cup to atone for your sins,"
Li De scolded with a smile, "You goblin, climb when you see the pole, okay, go to your house to drink,"
He turned his head to Tong Qing and said, "Tong Qing." You send Yun Niang back first, and compensate the masses for the things that were broken around according to the price," Tong Qing should be.
"Yun Niang, you don't have to be afraid, it's okay in the future, I'll go to your store for snacks another day,"
Yun Niang, "The little woman thanks to the prince," followed Tong Qing away.
Li De: "Your name is Yu Chi Baolin." It's Wei Chigong's son, it's a good job, please keep today's matter a secret for me, but don't tell your father yet. ”
"You two bastards, don't you hurry home and inform your mother to prepare wine and food, and the prince will arrive later" Cheng Yanjin looked at Cheng Chumo, who was sneaking outside the door, and the two brothers scolded Cheng Chuliang.
