Chapter 17: Farewell to the Long Pavilion

Zhang Dezhu was caught, and the little eunuchs he brought were naturally pushed aside and monitored.

The servant had already pushed Zhang Dezhu in front of Li Yu, kneeling on his knees, his head pressed almost to the ground.

"You are a close minister of your father's side, and I won't slap you in the face." Li Yu said, waved his hand, motioned to the servant to take the court staff, and then said: "Today, I will beat you with eighty boards, so that you can remember that there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and you should be presumptuous in front of your master." ”

Zhang Dezhu was sweating heavily at the moment, although he was unconvinced, but thinking about it, with the status of the sixth prince, no matter how bad it was, he did have the distinction between himself and his ministers.

Remorse arose, and he was about to beg for mercy, but he didn't want Li Yu to have ordered someone to gag him and start the board.

The eighty court canes all hit Zhang Dezhu's buttocks, and after this board was struck, Zhang Dezhu's two and a half moons were red, swollen and tall, and blood stained his clothes.

The board was struck, and the servant stood away.

Zhang Dezhu just lay on the ground, almost dying.

"Carrying your father-in-law back to the palace, if your father asks, you will play it truthfully, and you don't have to hide it." Li Yu still had a smile on his face, like a humble elder.

But this year, in fact, he is only a teenager.

Li Hongji has been watching from the sidelines, but he is also a little surprised and shocked in his heart.

Li Yu, as His Royal Highness the Sixth of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is known as a talented man. How can I see him so majestic, using lynching to beat people, but today I am an eye-opener......

Li Hongji was silent just now, in fact, he also wanted to see what kind of character his sixth brother was.

Unexpectedly, he really dared to beat Zhang Dezhu with a cane, without leaving him any face.

However, Li Hongji was also very happy, the more people Li Yu offended, the happier he was.

The enemy of the enemy is the friend, and Li Hongji understands this truth very well.

Zhang Dezhu was carried away, and after returning to the palace, he could not give the order, and the matter would inevitably reach Li Jing's ears, which Li Hongji and Li Yu both knew.

And more importantly, Li Yu's behavior will be passed on as the talk of the streets and alleys in Beijing today.

A cowardly prince, a talented man who is fond of poetry, books, and pianos, will suddenly become a hot person, such news, such a style, how can people not talk about it?

After Zhang Dezhu left Li Hongji's mansion, Li Yu also said goodbye and left.

However, in the game of the game, Li Hongji stayed, and he joked with Li Yu: "When the emperor's brother returns, you and I will end this game and decide the winner." ”

Li Yu naturally had no objections, he understood that Li Hongji had already walked in front of him.

Let himself go to Chizhou, whether there is a conspiracy or not, he can't judge now, but no matter what, this trip must be dangerous.

And the game between the two has kicked off from chess scales to reality.

Li Yu returned to his mansion, although he didn't know where his mansion was, but with the carriage in Li Hongji's mansion to see him off, he naturally returned to the mansion quickly.

Li Yu's mansion is not small, but it is unusually deserted, which may have something to do with his original personality.

At the same time, he worships the Buddha behind closed doors on weekdays, and he doesn't like others to disturb him, so there are not many people in the house.

It was already night when he returned to the mansion, and after tossing for so long, Li Yu also felt sleepy, and told his subordinates to wake up early tomorrow morning, and fell asleep.

Early in the morning of the second day, after Li Yu freshened up, he went to the court early to listen to the announcement.

Of course, Li Jing will not pursue Li Yu's beating of Zhang Dezhu.

The slave was beaten by the master, even if it was wrong, it was in vain, and Li Yu said that Zhang Dezhu bullied the master with a slave, and this beating was quite light.

Li Jing's court encouraged Li Yu for a long time, and asked him to escort the silver two and the military quartermaster to Chizhou, and above the court, many courtiers agreed, and the person who took the lead was Li Hongji.

And Xu Jue and others also agreed, and greatly advocated a deep brotherhood and asked Li Yu to have more experience and other rhetoric.

Li Yu naturally knew that he could not shirk this matter, so he had to take the order.

Li Jing was afraid that Li Yu would not be able to take on this important task, so he sent Tang Hong, a military general from the DPRK and China, to lead 5,000 soldiers to Chizhou with Li Yu to reward the three armies.

Tang Hong's official position is not high, and he guards the north gate of the Jingyi, so he has no qualifications to face the king, but because of this matter, he was recommended by the ministers of the court, so he had the opportunity to step into the palace gate and meet Li Jing.

Li Jing Jiajia said a few words of encouragement, informed him of the importance of this trip, and asked him to protect Li Yu to go to Chizhou.

Tang Hong naturally did not dare to disobey the order, he was grateful to the holy grace in his heart, and gave himself a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so he resigned from the holy driver, and went out of the palace with Li Yu, and respectfully obeyed Li Yu's arrangement.

Although Li Yu was very unhappy, he had no choice, so he ordered Tang Hong to arrange for the sergeants to assemble at the school and prepare to leave two days later.

After arranging the affairs of the army, Li Yu found Zhou Zong after the dispersal of the dynasty.

Zhou Zong was in charge of many departments such as the household department, and what Li Yu needed to go to Chizhou this time must be allocated by Zhou Zong for military supplies.

Zhou Zong saw Li Yu's frowns, and couldn't help but smile: "His Royal Highness Sixth looks worried, are you worried about the safety of this trip?" ”

"With thousands of people on the side, I don't worry much, but sometimes, I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves." Li Yu shook his head with a wry smile, didn't hold the door for a while, and came out with a witty remark that he used to say in his previous life.

Zhou Zong didn't react for a while, but after thinking about it carefully, he also understood the meaning of his words, so he smiled and said: "Sixth Highness Wan'an, the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty is also calm, although there are thieves, but they may not dare to touch the things in the army, and General Tang Hong has experienced a hundred battles, he will definitely protect His Highness Zhouquan, and the things escorted are appropriate." ”

Li Yu nodded, didn't say anything, just asked Zhou Zong to count the silver taels and goods.

After checking clearly, Li Yu ordered Tang Hong to load the things he needed, send special people to pull them to the school yard, and prepare to leave in two days and rush to Chizhou.

In the next two days, Li Yu was busy checking silver taels and military supplies.

Although he was not very familiar with such things, he quickly became familiar with them, and he was the first to do it.

Two days later, he entered the palace to bid farewell to Li Jing, Li Yu took 5,000 soldiers, escorted the silver taels and military quartermasters, set off from Jingyi, opened the city gate in a mighty way, and set off for Chizhou.

It's June, the breeze is light, the sun is hanging high in the sky, and it's not too hot, but it's also irritating.

A group of people and horses were walking on their own, not yet ten miles of the long pavilion, suddenly heard a "Zheng Zheng" piano sound in front of them, but someone was on the long pavilion to stroke the piano to say goodbye.

The sound of the piano lingers, and although he is in the team of thousands of people, Li Yu still hears it clearly.

The sound of the piano came slowly, which seemed to relieve the heat of the sun and clear the depression of the heart.

The horse's hooves were obtained, Li Yu quickly came from the side of the long pavilion, raised his eyes, but saw that in the long pavilion, Miss Zhou, dressed in white, was sitting in the pavilion, with slender jade hands caressing the strings, and was ** fragrant caressing the qin.

When Miss Zhou saw that Li Yu had immediately stepped in front of the pavilion, she couldn't help but stop playing in her hand, slowly stood up, gave Li Yu a little blessing, and said softly: "Your Highness is going to Chizhou here, I hope you can have a smooth journey, and the concubine will prepare a little thin wine, send you on a long journey, and hope to return triumphantly as soon as possible." ”
