Li Dan sat down in the room, he looked at the room and said with a smile: "How can a dignified general live in such a house?

Su Honghui smiled bitterly and said: "Your Highness is joking, the lowly post has long been dismissed, and now he is just a civilian. ”

"Oh—that's unfortunate!"

Su Honghui couldn't hold back any longer, knelt down, and said with tears in his eyes: "It's really wronged to be humble, please ask His Royal Highness the Prime Minister to make the decision for me." ”

"Get up, get up, sit down and talk. Li Dan hurriedly asked Su Honghui to get up and sit down.

At this time, Su Honghui's concubine came in with two cups of tea, Su Honghui sat down, wiped away his tears and said, "The humble gaffe made His Highness smile." ”

The concubine retreated, and only Su Honghui and Li Dan were left in the room, Li Dan said lightly: "I heard that General Su was dismissed because of the death of General Wang Xiaojie, but General Su seems to cry out grievances every year, is there really any grievance here?"

Su Honghui did not cooperate with Wang Xiaojie to fight according to the agreed plan, resulting in Wang Xiaojie being surrounded by the Khitan army and almost annihilated, this responsibility has been clear, but Su Honghui understands in his heart that it is not that he does not want to rescue Wang Xiaojie, but that Wu Sansi did not allow him to come to the rescue, and specially sent someone to monitor himself.

Afterwards, Su Honghui went to Wu Sansi to complain, but Wu Sansi didn't pay attention to him at all, and didn't even let him enter the door, he came to the capital every year to complain, just hoping that Wu Sansi could find out with his conscience and give himself another future, his family had no savings, and his old age would be very miserable, but the final result still made him disheartened, Wu Sansi said that he didn't know him at all, and ordered someone to drive himself away with a stick.

At this time, Su Honghui had already let go, so he secretly received him with Wu Sansi back then, ordered him to let Wang Xiaojie be defeated, and did not allow him to rescue the situation, Li Dan nodded again and again, this is really an extremely vicious trick, Li Zhen actually remembers this matter, once this case is revealed, Wu Sansi really can't eat and walks around.

After listening to Su Honghui's statement, Li Dan said again: "I have the intention to help you, but if there is any evidence, just based on your words, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to convince the saint." ”

Su Honghui hesitated, once this matter was opened, he would completely offend Wu Sansi, Wu Sansi would inevitably kill him, he was weighing it repeatedly, could he really offend Wu Sansi?

Li Dan saw Su Honghui's hesitation, and then he understood why Li Zhen had to persuade Su Honghui in person, only if he personally went out to counteract Su Honghui's fear of Wu Sansi.

Li Dan smiled slightly: "I'll also give you a promise! Once Li Tang returns to the country in the future, I will promote you as the general of the Left Guard and the founding prince of the county, what about this condition?"

Su Honghui's heart was excited, King Xiang was very likely to be the future emperor, his personal promise was the last hope in his life, he was in his heart, and decided to put his net worth and life on King Xiang, he slammed his head twice, then took out a wooden box from the small box next to him, and solemnly presented it to Li Dan.

"In the box is a letter written to me by Wu Sansi himself, asking me to make sure that Wang Xiaojie is defeated, at that time I kept a heart, burned the fake letter in front of Wu Sansi's people, but kept the true letter and hid it for five years, I am willing to give it to His Royal Highness. ”

Li Dan was overjoyed, with this letter, Wu Sansi was sad to pass this hurdle......

This spring is destined to be a chaotic spring, because Wu Sansi is about to ascend the crown prince and the struggle caused by it gradually came to a white heat, not long after the city gate was closed, hundreds of Qianniuwei soldiers surrounded the Luling Palace, and Cheng Ji Strode into the palace in the imperial history.

Li Xian's two sons, Li Chongrun and Li Chongjun, greeted him, and they angrily reprimanded: "Ji Zhongcheng, what are you doing here, you dare to use the army to surround us?"

Ji Ji said with a smile: "The two sons, please don't be angry, give Ji Ji a hundred guts, I don't dare to disturb His Royal Highness the King of Luling, I am in accordance with the will of the Holy Lord, come and say a few words, I want to see His Royal Highness the King of Luling." ”

Princess Wei walked out of the lobby and said coldly: "The prince is not in good health and can't see outsiders, just say anything to me!"

Ji Ji hurriedly saluted, "The lower official will see Princess Wei." ”

Princess Wei snorted, "You don't have to pretend, just say anything you want!"

Ji Ji laughed dryly and said: "The princess made Weichen embarrassed, Weichen did come by order, because Zhonglang involved Zhang Jingxiong's death to His Royal Highness the King of Luling, the saint asked me to tell the king of Luling, if he is willing to admit it, then he can be lightly dismissed, if he refuses to admit it, once the evidence is conclusive, she will not consider the relationship between mother and son, this is the original words of the saint, Weichen truthfully relayed, and also asked the princess to tell the prince, as for the search of the mansion, although the saint has agreed, but Weichen does not have the courage to leave, Weichen first resigned. ”

Ji Xuan bowed and slowly retreated, Princess Wei seemed to be indifferent on the surface, but in fact she was very flustered in her heart, of course she heard about the murder of Zhang Jingxiong, and also knew that there were blood words pointing to King Luling at the scene, once the saint really thought that Zhang Jingxiong was killed by King Luling, then their family would be over, and all her hopes and dreams would come to naught.

Princess Wei gritted her teeth with hatred, and seeing that Ji Ji was about to exit the gate, she hurriedly shouted: "Ji Zhongcheng!"

"Is there anything else going on with the princess?" asked Ji Ji after pausing and laughing.

Princess Wei said slowly: "I heard that Li Zhen has returned to Beijing to report on his work, as soon as he comes back, so many things will happen in the capital, don't Ji Zhongcheng think it's strange?"

Princess Wei had vaguely guessed that this matter was related to Li Zhen, and she didn't know if Li Zhen had planted it to King Luling, but in order to protect herself, she did not hesitate to confess Li Zhen.

Ji Ji was slightly stunned, and then smiled: "Xia Guan understands, thank you princess for reminding me." ”

He turned around and walked away quickly, and Princess Wei gritted her teeth for a while, "Li Zhen, if you are unkind first, then don't blame me for being unjust." ”

Ji Ji walked out of the gate of the palace, then turned on his horse, and led hundreds of soldiers to the gate, at this time, an entourage stepped forward and whispered: "Her Royal Highness the princess has an order, and Li Zhen is not allowed to be involved at this time." ”

Ji Ji nodded, "I know in my heart, I don't need you to remind me." ”

As soon as I arrived at the Fangmen, I saw a person walking out of the Fangmen, bowing and saluting: "Jizhongcheng, please stay!"

Ji Ji was stunned, he took a closer look, and recognized this person, it was Wei Bo, the nephew of Princess Wei, and he had a little friendship with him, Ji Ji smiled and said, "It turned out to be Wei Gongzi, is there something wrong?"

"Ji Zhongcheng, please take a step to speak. ”

Ji Ji turned over and dismounted, walked to the corner with him, and Wei Bo said in a low voice: "The murder of Zhang Jingxiong has indeed nothing to do with King Luling, but it may be related to the eldest son." ”

"Li Chongrun?" Ji Xuan was stunned.

Wei Bo nodded, "It's him, he often says that the saint is unscrupulous, favors Erzhang, and is often disorderly, he will kill Erzhang one day, even if he can't kill Erzhang, he will kill Li Jingxiong and others, and on the day Li Jingxiong was killed, I saw him take dozens of people out with my own eyes and didn't come back until late at night." ”

Ji Ji was really strange in his heart, how much hatred it would take for Wei Bo to secretly denounce Li Chongrun.

．．．．．．．

There is a huge notice posted on the wall of Luoyang Xingshan Fang, nearly 1,000 people in the square gather in front of the notice, only to hear someone reading aloud, Liang Wang Wu Sansi evil deeds are exhausted, immorality in the world, why is the prince, evil deeds are disclosed one by one as follows: in the first year of the last Yuan, Luoyang copper camel fang fire, affecting 327 households, burned 155 people, this is actually caused by Wu Sansi's arson, in order to seek its land, the place where the fire is now Wu Sansi's other house.

In the first year of Guangzhai, Liangzhou was hungry, Wu Sansi took the opportunity to seek land, and won 12,000 hectares of land with one acre of Shangtian and five liters of rice, which was named Liangwang Grange, which still exists today

"It's true!" someone shouted, "My family's 20 acres of Yongye land in Liangzhou were forcibly exchanged for two stones of rice, and it turned out that Wu Sansi did it. ”

"Shameless!"

At this time, several officials ran in a panic, and they were about to tear the bulletin on the wall, and the crowd was enraged and threw stones at several officials, and some people shouted: "Wu Sansi's lackeys, get out of here!" Several officials were beaten and fled with their heads.

Not only the Xingshan Fang, but at least 30 Fangs in Luoyang City posted similar notices, and Luoyang City was boiling for a while.

．．．．．．．

The next day before dawn, Luoyang Street appeared a carriage on the court, hung orange lanterns, conspicuous in the dark night, today is the fifth day of the first month of March, every Friday every month, the imperial court will hold a grand court meeting, all the officials above the fifth grade in Beijing must go to the court.

Li Zhen is no exception, he is a left-behind guard in Xijing, a high-ranking official from the third grade, and naturally he must also participate in the court meeting.

Before dawn, he got up, and Di Yan also got up early, packed his official clothes, and ate for him, so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground.

Li Zhen ate a little casually, then changed into the official mansion, and he smiled at his wife: "Don't be so troublesome, I'll just go with my father-in-law." ”

Di Yan tidied up his clothes, and sighed again: "Daddy has already gone first, he asked you to go early, don't be late." ”

Di Yan complained a little: "I don't understand, why go to the court so early, the sky is not yet dawn, why can't we let everyone sleep a little longer, and then have a court meeting in the morning." ”

"There is no way, if the court meeting drags on too late, then everyone should not do anything in the morning, so we have to work hard, go to the court before dawn, and the court will end after dawn, and it will not affect normal official business. ”

Li Zhen explained with a smile while putting on his boots: "In fact, it is harder to be the emperor, and he will not be able to stand it every day in the early dynasty, what should I do? ”

"According to what you say, the root cause of traitorous ministers misleading the country is because the emperor wants to sleep a little more and doesn't want to go to the early court?"

"That's pretty much it!"

Li Zhen kissed Di Yan on the face and said with a smile: "It's not early, I'll set off first." ”

Di Yan sent Li Zhen out of the mansion with a red face, and saw him get into the carriage, and more than a dozen guards escorted the carriage and drove quickly in the direction of Tianjin Bridge.

The sky is not yet dawn, the square in front of the Ming Hall is full of ministers, they are in groups of three or five, according to their respective circles gathered together and whispered about something, indeed, too many things have happened in the past two days, Zhang Jingxiong was killed, and there are rumors that are not conducive to Wu Sansi, which makes people have to think about it.

"In my opinion, Zhang Jingxiong's killing and Wu Sansi's proverbs are actually one thing, and the planners are very clever. ”

"Brother Ask thinks too much! Zhang Jingxiong is the brother of Er Zhang, what does he have to do with Wu Sansi?"

"Think about it again? Who did Wu Sansi get the support to win the crown prince's position, isn't it Erzhang? Killing Zhang Jingxiong is actually a warning to Erzhang, don't risk the world's disapproval, if Erzhang's arrogance is suppressed, Wu Sansi loses support, and adds proverbs, do you think Wu Sansi's ascension to the crown prince will be smooth?"

Several people suddenly realized, and they all gave a thumbs up, "Gao! Brother Qian's analysis is very thorough, and that's really the case." ”

"But what's going on with Wu Sansi's proverb?"

At that time, some people pointed out that two days before Li Quanzhong's death, there were Khitan people entering and leaving Wu Sansi's mansion, I think this matter must have something to do with him, and there is also ice jade, do you remember? Wu Sansi once showed off that he had a rare piece of arctic ice jade, and I suspect that it was given to him by the Khitans. ”

"Brother Qian, and those notices in the Luoyang neighborhood are simply extremely evil, and the people's anger is too great. ”

Everyone nodded one after another, and the proverbs and proclamations revealed a lot of Wu Sansi's old background, even if Wu Sansi denied it vigorously, but how could the saint ignore everyone's doubts and forcibly let him take the throne, an immoral prince would be spurned by the world.

"Wu Sansi is here!"

Someone shouted, and everyone shut up.
