There is nothing good to be done in being too ostentatious, it will only cause a lot of trouble and endless troubles, because jealousy often triumphs over reason.

When many people encounter difficulties on the way forward, they often choose to retreat, not taking the initiative to find a way to solve the problem, but complaining about the injustice of the world, and at the same time being dissatisfied with the smooth harvest of the fruits of labor by others, and always ready to fall into the ground.

That kind of pie-in-the-sky success is more likely to attract jealousy. is like a peerless handsome guy like Zhang Changzong, who is naturally beautiful and difficult to give up, he is merry by nature and high-profile, and after being favored by Wu Zetian, he squandered it and did whatever he wanted. Although he knows how to please women, he does not use power, and he has repeatedly screwed up. So what does it matter, as long as Wu Zetian still likes him, Zhang Changzong can come back indefinitely.

The two brothers not only bullied and dominated the market, bought and sold by force, but also sold official positions in the court and bent the law for bribes, which seriously infringed on the vested interests of the bureaucracy. Moreover, as a woman's male pet, it really violates feudal ethics and morality. Therefore, they have long been spurned by the important ministers of the imperial court, no matter what mistakes they make, they will be caught immediately, and they will continue to quote scriptures and classics, and they must be put to death, which makes Wu Zetian in a dilemma.

Wu Zetian knew very well that these two courtiers "may be cowardly, but may not be able to rebel", and it is impossible for them to set off any political storms, at most damaging their own wisdom. But their fate may be very miserable, but what does it matter? They have enjoyed all the glory and wealth in their lifetime, and although they may not be famous for eternity, they do have a stench for thousands of years, and it is better than those nobodies in the long river of history.

The Zhang brothers also seemed to understand this truth, so they tossed hard, but due to feudal ethics and the obstruction of the ministers of the court, it was not too outrageous, and they were still young after all, so they didn't know where to start.

But they still have some basic safety common sense. There were also many martial arts masters in the Tang Dynasty, and the things of killing people and stealing goods, robbing the rich and helping the poor happened from time to time, and many court officials were assassinated and died unexplained. For example, Chongyan, he will order the spells of ghosts and gods, and when he first became a county magistrate after entering the office, when Tang Gaozong, the emperor always had a headache but there was no cure, Ming Chongyan really looked at the emperor's illness, so he was deeply loved by Tang Gaozong and Wu Zetian. On the third day of the fifth month of the fourth year of Yifeng, he was killed by thieves at home, and the court ordered a search for the thieves, but he was not caught.

Therefore, there are many young and strong families in the official families in Luoyang City to prevent the invasion of thieves. Naturally, there are many such thugs in Fengchen Mansion, and they surround Chengshan in the middle, even if Chengshan has three heads and six arms, it is difficult to escape.

"This guy is of unknown origin, take it down for me. Manager Ding shouted.

"Take it to the council hall and I'll interrogate it myself!" Zhang Changzong saw that there was no panicked look in Chengshan's eyes, worried that if he was too reckless and offended a good person, he said again: "If he is honest, he will treat him politely and without tying up." ”

This can be regarded as saving face for Chengshan, of course Chengshan appreciated it, tidied up his clothes slightly, and followed the housekeeper straight to the conference hall.

This is a spacious and bright courtyard, the courtyard is not planted with any flowers and trees, the decoration of the house is simple and solemn, because of the monotonous color looks solemn and gloomy, but the council hall is not cold, and there is a slight fragrance.

There were some sticks and torture instruments on both sides of the hall, and it seemed that this was a private public court, and it would be difficult to do so. Seongsan stood motionless in the middle of the council chamber, he wasn't afraid, he wanted to see what they could do to him.

Zhang Changzong changed into luxurious and elegant clothes and walked in through the side door. Chengshan felt strange, since he was going to try the case, why was he dressed so brightly? Could it be that he was so arrogant and narcissistic by nature?

"Hurry up and recruit from the truth, who are you?" Zhang Changzong crossed Erlang's legs on the throne in the middle, and while drinking tea, he glanced at Chengshan with his eyes with a disdainful expression. This is his one-third of an acre, and he can do whatever he wants, even if Chengshan dies, no one knows.

Chengshan still recounted his situation as he did yesterday.

Zhang Changzong was not angry, he said lightly. "It seems that if you don't see the coffin, you won't cry, and you will bring witnesses up. ”

At this time, a family member came in with a young man with a yellow face and thin muscles and wearing a captain's uniform, and Chengshan looked at it and it turned out to be Yuan Yijie. It seems that he has just been promoted, and his brand-new official uniform is very eye-catching, he seems to be very proud, and he walked over and knelt down in front of Zhang Changzong and kowtowed, and then said respectfully. "Report to Ye Guogong, it is this person, his two accomplices have been captured. ”

Chengshan was a little surprised, he had been staying in Fengchen's mansion, how could Yuan Yijie know his whereabouts? But he quickly figured it out, just now he accompanied Zhang Changzong to visit Song Jing, riding a high-headed horse to swagger through the city of Luoyang, there must have been a spy who recognized his appearance. Chengshan lamented that their efficiency was too high, and they captured themselves so quickly.

Now that he has recognized him, Chengshan no longer quibbles, because no matter what he says, it will not help. His identity is fake, his place of origin is fake, and his experience is fake. He still doesn't know the situation of Gongsun Yu and Shao Hui, and whether the two of them confessed after they were arrested? If there are discrepancies in the confessions of the three people, won't they still have to toss and turn over and over?

"It seems that if you don't taste it, you won't tell the truth!" said Mr. Ding, who was standing on the side, angrily. "Come on, go to punishment!"

Several big men tied Chengshan to the hall pillars. Chengshan was very depressed in his heart, he was a little overwhelmed by this sudden change, he wanted to hide his whereabouts and enjoy the glory and wealth, and then secretly help Gongsun Yu and Shaohui, but he didn't expect to show his tail in advance.

If he travels back now, his efforts in the past few days will be in vain, and he has not found Gongsun Yu and Shao Hui, the life and death of the two of them are uncertain, and it is too unrighteous to slip away alone.

If you change the minds of everyone in the house now, the scope of operation is too large, even if you change the minds of the people present, there must be other people in Luoyang City who know, and if you continue to toss, you will definitely rewrite history, and it will be really troublesome.

Either he pretended to be dead, was beaten by them and fainted, and then was thrown into the suburbs, but this was detrimental to Chengshan's prestige, and he couldn't accept this reality.

The final choice can only be to protect one's flesh and body with spiritual power, and without the Blessing Spirit White Jade Bracelet, it can only be so. And a little show of supernatural powers will also make these ordinary people tremble, maybe it will cause a personality cult, and maybe there will be a turnaround.

So, Chengshan made up his mind not to open his mouth, nor to do any struggle, so he confronted each other quietly.

The means of punishing people are actually very simple, and it is enough to have a whip to make people taste the pain of flesh and skin. A strong man with a thick face and a thick face, holding a black and shiny leather whip in his hand, stood in front of Chengshan with a fierce look.

"One last chance for you. Zhang Changzong seemed to be in high spirits, as if he didn't want to hear Chengshan's affirmative answer.

Chengshan was silent, and the big man with the leather whip raised his arm, and waved the leather whip to hit Chengshan's body with a "snap".

Chengshan had already made a protective shield with spiritual power, protecting his body tightly. Wherever the leather whip went, there was no change at all, and the gorgeous coat on his body was not damaged in the slightest, as if it was a breeze blowing, slightly floating the corners of the clothes.

The big man with the whip was very surprised, he didn't expect the whip to cut through Chengshan's body like a small grass, and he whipped it twice harder, but it also had no effect.

Zhang Changzong, who was sitting in the hall, was taken aback, he hurriedly stepped off the throne, snatched the whip from the hand of the whip-wielding man, and whipped it a few times with his own hands, seeing that it was still the same result, he couldn't help but stay where he was and didn't move, and then his eyes lit up.

"It's really a god!" He finally believed it, what Steward Ding said just now was true! It turned out that Chengshan was really a god-like existence.

Yuan Yijie also walked in front of Chengshan and bowed deeply. "In Xia Bucai, I will take revenge for my care, and I hope that you have a lot of them, forgive the lower officials!"

Chengshan was surprised, and he heard the laughter next to him, it was a woman's voice, an old woman's voice. Chengshan followed the prestige, the right side of the hall suddenly opened the doorway, a group of palace maids surrounded by a gorgeously dressed court lady walked in, she wore a golden silk hundred phoenix Chaoyang crown, wearing a mountain and river splendid Luoxia skirt, up and down the body of jewelry, rich and elegant, although you can also see the silk white hair, but the hairstyle is very neat. She has keen eyes, ruddy complexion, and a graceful and generous attitude, and Shangguan Wan'er is by her side.

"See Your Majesty. Everyone knelt down in unison, bowing respectfully to the empress, and Chengshan was tied there at a loss.

It turned out that this was Wu Zetian, and she actually came to Fengchen Mansion to watch Zhang Changzong interrogate Ren Chengshan.

Wu Zetian walked in front of Chengshan with the support of Shangguan Wan'er, she carefully looked at Chengshan tied to the pillar, and then carefully looked at the place where she had been whipped just now, and nodded slightly.

"Liulang, what do you think? Do you want to continue the interrogation?" Wu Zetian glanced at Zhang Changzong with a smile.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty on the blessings of the heavens, the heavens descend from the gods and men to bless each other, and you should be blessed with evil and good luck. Zhang Changzong was also very happy, he actually knew that Wu Zetian was there, and he used to hold banquets in Fengchen Mansion and invite ministers from the DPRK and China to come to the banquet, and Wu Zetian's sudden appearance made him not surprised.

What surprised Zhang Changzong was Chengshan, he didn't expect that his recruitment list would attract an invulnerable god, which made him very excited.

He is even more powerful, and he doesn't have to be afraid of those pedantic ministers!
