Zu Dong came to see that everyone was talking hotly, so he poured cold water on it at the right time, sat up and said: "Don't forget, we only have more than 3,000 people, and Feng Yuhua's cavalry guards are stationed on the edge of Xuanwu Lake. ”

"Yes! If you don't get rid of this hidden danger, you have to worry about what you do. Lu Renjia echoed and said, "Although the Jiangbei battalion has a large number of troops, it is far from quenching the thirst of the near, and the biggest threat to us is Feng Yuhua's nail, only by completely getting him, the initiative will be in our hands." ”

Everyone was about to discuss how to completely deal with Feng Yuhua, when the old man who was waiting at the front door ran in breathlessly, and replied breathlessly: "Yu, Yu, Yu......"

Zu Tian was uncomfortable when he heard it, and said impatiently: "What's wrong? Don't stutter. ”

Only then did the old family breathe a sigh of relief and said, "Prime minister, the emperor is here!" ”

"What?" Everyone asked in unison.

"The Holy Driver has arrived in front of the house!" The old family repeated.

A room full of people are full of ghosts, and now they suddenly hear that the emperor they are plotting to deal with is outside, who is not surprised, who is not panicked? All of a sudden, everyone in the audience began to get up in a hurry, trying to find a place to hide.

In the end, it was Zu Donglai who had been in the world for a long time and was still stable, seeing that everyone was panicking, while shaking his head slightly, he shouted loudly: "Calm down, people haven't come in yet, what are you afraid of?" ”

Only then did everyone calm down a little, and Zu Donglai rushed to the old family who came to report the news and asked, "How many soldiers did the emperor bring?" ”

"Bing?" The old family member said suspiciously, "The emperor only brought a young man, but the soldiers didn't see it, oh, by the way, that young man with a sword." ”

"Just two people? You can't be confused and don't know how to count, right? Zu Tianyi asked in disbelief.

"Well, although the old slave is old, he is not confused, there are indeed only two people." The old family also unceremoniously pushed back.

The light in Zu Tian's eyes flashed, and he said happily: "Father, the opportunity has come." We were worried about what to do, but he sent it to the door himself. ”

Fan Jian said on the side: "It's not that easy. He must be carrying He Ziming by his side, I have tried that kid's kung fu, it is difficult to deal with, there are no ten or eight masters, don't even think about getting close to him. ”

Zu Tianyi sneered: "It's a shame that you are still the commander of the Ouchi guards, I'm afraid that one of my subordinates will be like this!" ”

Zu Donglai interrupted the quarrel between the two on the side, and said: "You must not do anything in this mansion, how can that baby say that he is also a descendant of the Li family, although he has no prestige in the eyes of the ministers of the court, but he is also an authentic son of heaven, we have not yet issued a document to crusade against him, if he is allowed to die in my mansion at this time, it will have extremely bad consequences." ”

"So what now?" Zu Tianyi asked hatefully.

Zu Donglai straightened his clothes and said: "It is a felony for the minister to gather in private, you should avoid it first, and I will go to the front to 'welcome'!"

At that moment, everyone hurriedly walked through the hall and alleys under the leadership of the old family, and left the Xiangfu from the side gate and the corner gate, or returned to the yamen, or returned to their own mansion.

Zu Donglai also trotted out all the way to pick up the car, but saw that Li Guanqi was dressed in civilian clothes, and he was already accompanied by He Ziming, passing the second gate briskly, and was judging the rockery in the yard.

Zu Donglai hurriedly lifted the sleeves of his robe, stepped forward quickly, and didn't care about the rain on the ground, so he knelt down and said: "The emperor has something urgent and important, just ask someone to summon the ministers to enter the palace, why did he come in person in the rain?" ”

Li Guanqi glanced at Zu Donglai, turned around and smiled at He Ziming and said, "What did I say?" We came so recklessly, we must have taught our ancestors a lesson. ”

Zu Donglai knelt in the rain, and felt the slightest cold air drilling into his body along the crack in his knees, but the courtesy of the monarch and the minister was restrained there, Li Guanqi didn't let him flat, he couldn't get up casually, so he had to grit his teeth and say: "Chen'an dares to teach the emperor a lesson?" It's just that the emperor is in a respected position, and it is a matter of society, as if it is like this, it is indeed inappropriate to leave the palace in the rain and drive to the house of the ministers with only one guard! ”

Li Guanqi glanced at Zu Donglai again, then stepped forward and stretched out his hand to pick him up, and said with a smile: "Okay, Kaiyang (Zu Donglai's character) is your book, I will accept it, and I will pay attention to correcting it in the future." Get up! ”

Zu Donglai stood up tremblingly and said, "I don't know if the Holy Driver is coming, what is the message?" ”

Li Guanqi laughed and said, "Where are there so many serious things?" I took He Ziming out to relax, and as I walked, I remembered that Kaiyang's mansion was here, so I took advantage of the situation and walked in. You've been on sick leave for a few days, how are you doing? ”

Zu Donglai secretly scolded in his heart: Just now you made me kneel in the late autumn rain for a long time, and asked me if I was feeling better? I wasn't sick, but I got sick after you tossed it like this. But on his face, he still said with a smile: "Emperor Meng is worried that the minister's illness has been cured, and he expects to be able to join the court council in the near future." After saying this, he turned sideways and said, "The wind and rain are hitting people outside, please sit in the middle hall of the emperor." ”

Li Guanqi nodded and said, "Let's go together, Kaiyang, this is your home, you don't need so many courtesies." ”

He Ziming had already taken the first step into the middle hall, and his eyes quickly swept the indoor furnishings back and forth a few times, only to see a large square table of red sandalwood carvings placed in the court, and a large plaque with a gold edge and blue background carved dragon hanging above the square table, on which the three words of Douda were written "Ruyi Hall", which was the handwriting of Emperor Muzong. On each side of the square table is a high-backed rosewood chair, and on the ground is a scarlet carpet, on which are neatly placed two sixteen nanmu circle chairs.

He Ziming took a closer look and didn't find anything inappropriate on it, so he stood sideways to the side, and Li Guanqi and Zu Donglai walked in one after the other.

Li Guanqi sat on the top seat, paused slightly, and said: "I came to your house today, first, to stop by to see your illness; Second, there is something to discuss with Kaiyang. ”

"If the emperor has something, just give orders." Zu Donglai bowed and said. Before the official war with Li Guanqi, he still has to do enough of these superficial articles.

Li Guanqi said seemingly casually: "You have an excerpt before, and you want to recommend Feng Yuhua, the commander of the Xiao Cavalry Guard, to serve as the secretary of the Criminal Department. ”

Zu Donglai nodded and said, "Not bad." Feng Yuhua led the troops in a good way, and he should be reused and promoted. The minister has always wanted to ask the emperor why he left this excerpt of the minister. ”
