Chapter 276: The First Backer of Chang'an City
Li Yuanying was drinking tea on a rocking chair in the yard in the backyard, and the two ladies next to him were serving, so comfortable, the sound of chopping vegetables in the kitchen, it was Fang Er and Feng Er, two boys preparing food, Li Junxian led Hou Junji to walk in carefully and explain the situation, but Hou Junji kept scanning the yard, as if he was looking for his goal.
Li Yuanying listened quietly, and said in the same unbelievable surprise: "Who? Feng Ang rebelled? He's not crazy, the eastern and western Turks in the north have been defeated, how many generals can Xiaoxiao Lingnan have? Could it be mistaken? ”
This question should be answered by Hou Junji, but this thing was distracted, Li Junxian pulled his clothes and reminded: "General, the prince is asking." ”
Li Yuanying smiled and said: "Don't look at it, Feng An's son Feng Zhidai does work in my tavern, just over there in the kitchen, here in this king, are you still afraid that you will not be able to leave?" Now tell me in detail what happened, I don't believe it, as long as Feng Ang is not a madman, he will not choose to rebel. ”
Hou Junji explained in detail the matter of the eight-hundred-mile urgency, but Li Yuanying groaned, thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "No, the eight-hundred-mile urgency reported that Lingnan rebelled, but Feng Angren was in Chang'an, what could he do alone?" Eighty percent of his subordinates rebelled and seized power, and by the way, except for Feng Ang, who borrowed the hands of the imperial court, the imperial court was able to produce many people, such a simple strategy, no one would be able to see it, right? ”
"Your Majesty has made a decision, and you can find out if you take Feng Ang and ask, so it is still inconclusive. But that Feng Zhidai is the second son of the Feng family, and he is very suspicious, so ......" Hou Junji said embarrassed.
At this moment, a figure rushed out of the kitchen, shouting nonsense: "Nonsense, someone must have wronged my Feng family, we sincerely came to Chang'an to worship the Son of Heaven, when I came, my father specially told me to stay in Chang'an as a proton, with the heart of the court, I can keep Lingnan safe, otherwise, how can you take me to throw myself into the net?" ”
Hou Junji scolded: "You can tell if it's true or false!" ”
Fang Er chased after him with a kitchen knife, and at the same time kept persuading him: "Feng Er, don't be impulsive, you shouldn't show up, listen to me jump out of the window and escape through the back door......"
"Stop me, beloved!" Li Yuanying scolded this stupid apprentice and helped Feng Zhidai escape? Isn't that a disservice? Turning his head to look at Hou Junji, who refused to give up, Li Yuanying stood up, walked in front of the other party, and said seriously: "No matter whether Lingnan rebels or not, whether the Feng family's father and son are involved or not, this king doesn't care, this Feng Zhidai owes me a huge amount of money and needs to work here to pay off his debts, and he can't go anywhere until the debts are paid." ”
"However, Your Majesty's side ......" Hou Junji was in a hurry.
Li Yuanying waved his hand to interrupt, "Second brother, if you reply truthfully, just say that Feng Zhidai is here with me, and he can't turn the sky." ”
Of course, Hou Junji didn't dare to take people in front of King Qin, so he had to bow down and prepare to retreat, but he didn't expect Li Yuanying to say loudly to his apprentice: "Fang Er, there is a war in the south, you should return to the team, go and inform your junior sister, as well as King Zhao, Taiji Hall is discussing, you will definitely send troops to quell the chaos in the future, and you won't be able to get any military merit if you go late." ”
Hou Junji's heart tightened, thinking of the three peerless masters behind King Qin, especially the King of Zhao Li Yuanba, he instantly broke into a cold sweat, saluted humbly again, and retired in a low-key manner.
Feng Zhidai has already understood that the Feng family suddenly suffered a catastrophe, and he was almost arrested and imprisoned, it was His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who seemed to be weak, who tried his best to save him, and looking at this posture, His Royal Highness the King of Qin dared to be the existence of the emperor.
So immediately afterwards, Feng Zhidai directly knelt down on his knees and kowtowed and begged: "Ask the prince to save my father, Feng Zhidai will guarantee his life, my Feng family will never commit chaos, it must be a misunderstanding." ”
Li Yuanying smiled and sat back in the rocking chair, "You kid, take care of yourself first, you haven't paid back the money you owe me, and I have another one today, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it off in this life." ”
Feng Zhidai kowtowed with tears in his eyes and shouted: "Only the prince can save Daddy, Feng Zhidai will be a cow and a horse in this life to repay your kindness!" ”
Fang Er got the master's eyes, smiled and helped Feng Zhidai up and said, "Hurry up, I'll tease you." If you can stay in the tavern, the master will treat you as his own, and you won't care about your family's affairs. Do you know now why everyone in the world wants to apprentice to the Qin Palace? That's because everyone knows that the first backer of Chang'an City, except for His Majesty, is King Qin. ”
Feng Zhidai seemed to be in a dream, he couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly, didn't I work all day to pay off the bills? How did you become your own person?
Li Yuanying playfully reprimanded his apprentice: "Oh? Is it? So Fang Er, you kid apprentice, is also looking for a backer? Your prime minister's father can't be trusted? ”
"Ahem, no, absolutely not! The disciple is sincere to learn cooking from the master, and of course he can also run errands with the master to serve the teacher, and there is no other intention. Fang Er hurriedly explained.
"Okay, go and send a message to your junior sister, and by the way, go to King Zhao's Mansion to ask King Zhao to come out, and go to the Taiji Hall to see what's going on, and before the matter is clear, be sure to protect Feng An." Feng Zhidai, from today onwards, you can stay in the tavern for the time being, you can't go back home, wait until the turmoil has passed. ”
On the Taiji Palace, Feng Ang looked at the eight-hundred-mile urgent letter, and the whole person was stupid, how could this?
Originally, I thought that someone in the imperial court framed me, or that I was suspicious of the emperor, and I wanted to set up myself in Chang'an, and by the way, I sent someone to take Lingnan, but I didn't expect the truth to be: The imperial court did not take any action, and there was a rebellion on the Lingnan side?
"Your Majesty, the minister has been wronged, he has been in Chang'an recently, he has never had contact with anyone, and he doesn't know anything about Lingnan, please check it out!" Feng Ang said earnestly.
"Really? Geng Guogong, according to reliable sources, you secretly sent an urgent letter to Lingnan a month ago, and then Lingnan sent troops. Are you a fool when I am and the civil and military officials? Li Er threw out a piece of information and rebuked angrily.
Feng Ang panicked, "Your Majesty and the minister have written a letter to the family, but it is a debt collection letter, and the minister has been having fun in Chang'an for several days and owes some debts, so he wrote a letter and asked the family to send money over, this matter can be testified by the emperor, and everyone in the mahjong parlor knows it......"
"Enough! The Emperor can testify to how much you owe, but who can prove what is written in your letter? If it weren't for your instructions, how could Lingnan dare to send troops north? Li Er asked.
At this moment, a trumpet came from outside the Taiji Palace, "His Royal Highness King Zhao has arrived!" Princess Heian has arrived! ”
Li Yuanba took Xiao Doudou's hand and strode into the Taiji Hall, seeing the tense atmosphere in the hall, Li Yuanba said with a smile: "Yo, it's all here, why are you so nervous?" Isn't it just a rebellion in Lingnan, when it comes to fighting, who am I afraid of in Datang? Let go and don't be nervous. ”
Li Er rubbed his swollen eyebrows, "Fourth brother, why are you here?" What about the fifth brother? Doudou, your father didn't come? ”
Li Yuanba said with a smile: "Second brother, I heard from the fifth brother that there is a war to be fought, so I came to help, I am afraid that I will not be able to get military merits if I come late, isn't it just 100,000 Lingnan soldiers?" Let me go with Doudou and lead the troops, and put down the rebellion within a month. ”
"His Royal Highness King Zhao, please leave us a mouthful of soup, we didn't catch up with the Western Turks last time, and this time we ......" A group of generals opened their mouths one after another.
