Chapter 68: They're all old actors
After all, in the case that Li Hao is not good at rewarding, the reward will be distributed to Yuan Shen, and in this kind of brother-friend-brother environment, it can still be recognized.
However, this is also based on Emperor Wen's understanding of the Yuan brothers, if it is to be replaced by other people who don't understand, Emperor Wen will not do this kind of superfluous thing, so as not to do bad things with good intentions.
At this point, Yuan Shen's path to entry into the office can be regarded as on the right track, making up for the impact caused by Li Hao's existence.
But just when everyone was defenseless, the news of Fan Chang's escape from prison suddenly came from the Tingwei Mansion, and even set off a storm in the court.
A group of people led by Zuo Yushi were all in front of Emperor Wen, and Chen said that Ling was not guilty of slackness and dereliction of duty, so that Emperor Wen ordered Ling Budo to be punished.
Emperor Wen definitely didn't agree, although this matter was indeed deliberately robbed by Ling Budo to let people kidnap Fan Chang, but on the surface, he did look quite innocent.
After all, this person was robbed in the prison of the Tingwei Mansion, and it is said that he must be held responsible, and the people from the Tingwei Mansion are also the first person responsible.
But just because Ling Budo is too favored by Emperor Wen, everyone in the world suffers from inequality, so naturally Ling Budo is particularly unpleasant.
In addition, Confucianism is now implemented and filial piety governs the world, and Ling Budo naturally rejects Ling Yi because he knows the truth about the lonely city in the first year, so he is named unfilial piety, and he has become the one who is lost.
Of course, Ling Budo himself didn't take this matter seriously, anyway, as long as he arrested people back, he would be able to stop everyone's mouths.
But Li Hao can make Ling Budo so smooth, if Li Hao had asked Ling Budo to communicate the situation, this guy would just tell the truth a little.
But since Ling Budo wanted to make himself like this, Li Hao was really more interested in participating in it.
So Li Hao found the prince and offered to assist Tingweifu and Ling Budo to arrest Fan Changgui.
When the prince suddenly heard this, he asked curiously, "It's just a Fan Chang, and if Zicheng investigates and forgives him, he can't escape from the capital, so why bother you."
Li Hao replied: "Ling Zicheng is now impeached by the courtiers, and Fan Chang can be caught one day earlier, and Ling Zicheng can also be cleared of charges as soon as possible.
And now my brother is also going to the Tingwei Mansion to join the army, if I arrest Fan Chang back, I can also help him make some contributions, the best of both worlds, why not do it."
The prince thought about it and felt that what Li Hao said was right, although he didn't think that these impeachments could shake Ling Budo's position of power, but it was good to be less noisy, so he agreed to let Li Hao also go to the investigation, and let Yuan Shen also accompany him.
With the consent of the prince's side, Li Haodang went to the Tingwei Mansion and informed Yuan Shen of the matter.
Yuan Shen looked confused after hearing this, and asked Li Hao, "What does this matter have to do with you, didn't Your Majesty ask Ling Budo to investigate this matter, and why did you bring me with you."
You have to know that Fan Chang was rescued in the Tingwei Mansion Prison, and the strength of the people behind it is so huge, why do you bother to join in this fun."
Li Hao replied with a smile, "Brother, don't worry, don't you believe me!" Since I dare to intervene, there is no risk in this matter."
Seeing Li Hao like this, Yuan Shen knew that Li Hao was confident, so he asked, "Oh, it seems that you know who is behind this?"
Li Hao naturally knew about this, except for Ling Budo, the person who deliberately released the water, this matter was at most related to King Yong and Ling Yi.
This guy Yongwang is a person who will soon be unlucky, and although Ling Yi lives longer, it is because this guy can hide.
Now that Li Hao knows his true face, he can't turn over anything, at least he doesn't pose much threat to the Yuan family.
It's just that these things don't need to be so clear to Yuan Shen, so he said, "After we return to the house, I will explain to you slowly, and now you go to find Xia Ling Budo with me first, and tell him that the two of us are going to interfere with this eucalyptus."
After speaking, he pulled Yuan Shen and was about to leave, Yuan Shen said in a loud voice when he saw this: "Wait, even if you want to leave, you have to wait for me to go and talk to Master Ji, why are you in such a hurry."
And after meeting with Master Ji, you still have to follow me
Go to the city gate, today General Cheng took Shao Shangjun back to the capital.
But now the city gate is under martial law because of the need to track down Fan Chang, and I am worried that General Cheng will not be allowed to enter when he arrives, so I was going to go over and have a look.
It just so happens that you are here now, and your face in the army is much bigger than mine, and if you want to come forward, those men will not dare to stop you."
Originally, Yuan Shen was still a little embarrassed to beg Li Hao to do something, but when Li Hao heard it, he immediately said, "Since that's the case, then why don't you hurry up and find Master Ji, don't delay the time."
After finishing speaking, he drove Yuan Shen away, and this coherent action also made Yuan Shenhu painted, I don't understand why Li Hao suddenly became so active today.
It is said that if you want to pick up Cheng Shaoshang, it shouldn't be that you are more excited, and Li Hao's performance is also very positive about Fan Chang's eucalyptus before, which is also different from Li Hao in Yuan Shen's impression, which is quite strange.
When Ji Zun heard that Yuan Shen was going to check on Li Hao and Ling Budo, he didn't stop him, and directly let Yuan Shen follow Li Hao.
After leaving the Tingwei Mansion, the two went straight to the city gate, and then bumped into Ling Budo not far from the city gate.
Sure enough, this year is such a coincidence, if it weren't for Li Hao's involvement, it is estimated that Ling Budo would have bumped into Cheng Shaoshang again.
Just as Li Hao was thinking about something, Ling Budo also saw Li Hao and Yuan Shen, and asked, "What are you two going to do, are you going out of the city to do errands?"
However, before Li Hao could speak, Yuan Shen hurriedly replied, "It's not that you go out of the city to do errands, it's just to pick up people outside the city."
After answering, Yuan Shen noticed the fully equipped black-armored guards behind Ling Budo, and asked, "It's you, General Ling, where are you going?"
There is no way, the main reason is that Ling Budo is too dazzling with so many people around him, to say that the black armor guards also followed him before, but it will not be ready to bow and horses in the capital, and it looks like he will start a war at any time.
Ling Budo replied, "Oh, this is not to find out Fan Chang's whereabouts, I plan to go out of the city to inspect it, so let's go along the way."
Hearing this, Li Hao guessed that this guy was definitely going to close the net, this progress was somewhat fast, and Li Hao was going to collide with him.
But this will definitely not be able to drive people away, Yi Ling is not suspiciously smart, if Li Hao really speaks, it will be difficult not to be discovered, and it will not be beautiful at that time, it is better to compete with the speed on both sides.
So in the face of Ling Budo's invitation, Li Hao agreed very smoothly, and in addition, it was just a matter of observing whether Ling Budo still had any thoughts about Cheng Shaoshang.
So the three of them went on the road together, and then when they arrived at the city gate, they saw that the carriage of the Cheng family was blocked outside the city gate.
But as Ling Budo and Li Hao arrived, the city gate gate Hou Dangdang let go of the barricades blocking the road and cleared the road to let everyone out of the city, not daring to stop a word.
After everyone came out, Li Hao said to Ling Budo, "My brother and I want to send General Cheng and them back to the city first, if General Ling has something to do, he might as well take the first step."
Ling Budo glanced at Li Hao when he heard this, and said in his heart that Li Hao's house was a little strange today, and this tone always seemed to be about to break away from himself.
He immediately replied: "I'm not in a hurry, I also have a relationship with General Cheng in Longxi, and I happened to meet today, so I'll meet you together."
After speaking, he drove his horse to follow Yuan Shen, who had already moved forward, and Li Hao could only follow when he saw this.
On the other side, Cheng Shi was also stunned when he saw that the three of them had arrived, according to what he thought at most, Yuan Shen was worried that his own girl might come, and he never expected that these three people would get together.
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
Seeing this, Li Hao could only sneer and said, "This is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince worried about you, so let me help you, this is His Royal Highness's kindness, you have to understand."
Of course, Ling Budo didn't believe Li Hao's words, and said, "Yes, then why don't I ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to see if he took the initiative to ask you to help, or if it was your will to ask."
"Zicheng, you can't trust me like this, I'm so sad, you can ask the prince now to see if what I said is true." Li Hao said with a face full of righteous indignation.
Looking at Li Hao's appearance, Ling Budo was really a little unsure whether Li Hao was telling a lie or not.
After all, this kind of lie that can be broken at the touch of a button, as long as it is in front of the prince, it cannot be concealed at all.
But Li Hao didn't plan to hide it, as long as this would be able to keep Ling Budo away for a while, Li Hao would immediately go to the meeting and the troops prepared outside the city to arrest Fan Chang directly.
Anyway, what Ling Budo has to wait for is that King Yong will have someone to kill Fan Chang and then save Fan Chang, so that he can only confide the truth to testify against King Yong, so as to save his life.
But in Li Hao's opinion, it doesn't have to be King Yong's own people to start with, can't he find a few people to act?
So Li Hao was fully prepared this time, even the blood bag and the special blade were ready, just waiting for Fan Chang to get his hands and surprise him.
But Ling Budo was not fooled, and said directly: "Forget it, I will believe you for the time being, but how are you going to investigate this matter."
Li Hao continued to paralyze Ling Budo: "I didn't just receive my order, I don't have any ideas yet, why don't you see if there is anything you need my help with?"
Of course, Ling Budo continued to refuse, and said, "I don't have many clues now, it's better for you to figure out some ways to do this by yourself, and you may be rewarded with multiple ideas."
The two of them tried this time, and it seemed that they didn't gain anything in the end, but who made Li Hao have the eyes of heaven and know what happened before and after.
However, because the two of them were entangled here, they forgot about Cheng Shi's father and daughter for a while, and Yuan Shen took the initiative to say, "Since the two of you have official business to do, then I will send them back to the house first, and which of you will go and talk to the doorman."
Hearing this, Li Hao was ready to go over to say hello, after all, this was also the reason why he came over, but before Li Hao started.
Then there was a rush of soldiers in front of the city gate, and everyone hurriedly dispersed on both sides, completely vacating the city gate.
Seeing this, Li Hao couldn't help but laugh beside him: "Zicheng is really so majestic, it's really enviable."
Of course, Li Hao is not alone in this view, Cheng Shi and Yuan Shen next to him saw this scene, and the expressions on their faces were also very exciting, even Cheng Shaoshang, who was originally sitting in the carriage, couldn't help but poke his head out, wanting to see the situation clearly.
At this moment, Li Hao noticed that Ling Budo's eyes crossed Cheng Shaoshang's body, but he didn't stay too long.
It seems that without the foreshadowing of many previous things, Cheng Shaoshang is no longer the indispensable special person for Ling Budo, so Li Hao can breathe a sigh of relief for Yuan Shen.
The road ahead was about to start, and after Cheng Shi came over to thank Ling Budo for his help, he urged the carriage to start entering the city, and Li Hao and Yuan Shen also followed along.
Ling Budo watched Li Hao enter the city from outside the city, and at this time, Liang Qiufei stepped forward and asked, "Young Master, do you think this Yuan Ang really knows anything?"
"Whether he knows it or not, we just have to do our own thing." After finishing speaking, Ling Budo pulled the horse rope and galloped away with the black armor guard.
When Li Hao, who was in the city, saw this scene, he said goodbye to Cheng Shi and said, "I still have some other things to do, so my brother will accompany you home."
Cheng Shi didn't have any opinion on this, it was already good for Li Hao to come over, and he couldn't force people to come over.
Instead, Yuan Shen asked a lot: "You are going out of the city, is it possible that you have to chase Ling Budo to the past, speaking of which, I always feel that you are weird today."
"Don't think about it too much, Haosheng accompanied General Cheng and Shao Shangjun back to the house, anyway, I got things done, so I naturally have your credit." After speaking, Li Hao drove his horse directly to the city gate.
Li Hao
Although he didn't have Ling Budo's might, it was still easy to get out of the city, at least the gate marquis didn't dare to stop him.
After leaving the city gate, Li Hao galloped westward, went to the manor to find the tribes that had already gathered here to rendezvous, and then asked about Fan Chang's whereabouts.
In fact, when Ling Budo had to fight with Li Hao at the beginning, Li Hao had already made people stare at Fan Chang.
These days, Fan Chang's every move has been under the surveillance of Li Hao's subordinates, and by the way, he also discovered the people sent by Ling Budo to keep an eye on Fan Chang, but Ling Budo's people didn't find them.
But this is also normal, after all, these people are all carefully cultivated by Li Hao with the experience of two lifetimes, if they can be easily discovered by Ling Budo's people, then Li Hao's two lives will not be in vain.
After determining the location, Li Hao immediately led the people to set off, intending to hold the people in his hands before Ling Budo made a move.
It's just that this trip didn't go well, Li Hao went out of the city one step later after all, and Ling Budo may have been stimulated by Li Hao, so he went straight to Fan Chang when he went out of the city.
If Li Hao wanted not to bump into Ling Budo, he could only take a detour, but when Li Hao arrived, the courtyard where Fan Chang was hiding had been surrounded by black armor guards.
