No one knew that a big riot was about to begin.

At this time, Pei Lin went to Tai'an Palace with his unwillingness to meet the emperor.

Emperor Taishang is Pei Lian's biggest support in the imperial court, and he dares to repeatedly contradict the emperor's hole cards.

In Pei Lian's heart, the Emperor Taishang is the person he is loyal to.

Because of the emperor, he has his current self.

"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"

"Your Majesty suspended me for three days for a small official!"

As soon as Pei Lin saw Li Yuan, he said aggrievedly.

That is, in front of the Emperor Taishang, Pei Lin will have this kind of expression.

At this time, Li Yuan was watching the singer dance, holding the beauty on the left and right.

"Nonsense!"

"I'll say he's not later!"

Li Yuan was originally excited to watch the singer dance.

After hearing Pei Lian's cry, his interest faded a lot.

He pushed away the beauties on both sides, beckoned to Pei Lian, and asked Pei Lin to accompany him.

The people who once fought the world, died and walked, and now Pei Lin is left to accompany him.

For Pei Lian, a courtier, Li Yuan treated him as a friend, and even more as a confidant.

"Your Majesty, the emperor has been getting more and more disagreeable lately."

"He authorized Princess Gaomi and the Boling Cui clan to work against each other, I'm afraid it will affect the stability of the country."

Pei Lin came to Li Yuan and sat down.

As soon as he sat down, he began to tell Li Shimin's no.

It has been widely known about Princess Gaomi's counterfeit money to defraud the Seven Star Money Bank.

Princess Gaomi is just a marginal person, and she doesn't dare to do this without the emperor's permission.

Moreover, the Boling Cui clan and the other five surnames and Qiwang could not be found, so the emperor could only hide it.

Working against the five surnames and seven wangs can easily affect the stability of the country, which is very unfavorable to the current Datang.

"Gao Mi doesn't have that guts?"

Li Yuan frowned and said.

He knew about it, and it was a state of acquiescence.

Fang Yuan was also there at that time, and Li Yuan originally wanted to be in charge of this matter.

Later, Li Shimin refused, and personally joined forces with Fang Yuan and Princess Gaomi.

But now that Pei Lin is guessing like this, then Boling Cui and the others also think so.

If they really think like that, then the trace of Princess Gaomi can't be discovered by them.

"Your Majesty, don't laugh."

"Don't you know what kind of character Princess Gaomi is?"

Pei Lin didn't think much about it, and said with a smile.

Because Princess Gaomi's biological father is Li Yuanji, Li Yuan feels that he is being treated badly, so he takes good care of her.

Therefore, for Princess Gaomi, not only Li Yuan but also Pei Lian, both of them are familiar with each other, and they often see and understand her character.

A person like Princess Gaomi would definitely not dare to go against the Bolingcui clan without the emperor's permission.

"Okay, the second child is so old and has his own ideas, so I won't talk about him."

"Also, you, don't keep calling me Your Majesty, it's not good if outsiders hear you."

Li Yuan waved his hand, as if he didn't know about it.

He is still quite jealous of the five surnames and seven hopes, but he also hates them.

The existence of the family is obviously an obstacle to the centralization of imperial power, which is not conducive to the development of imperial power.

Li Shimin's behavior was to maintain imperial power, suppress the family, and improve the imperial court's control over the localities.

Therefore, Li Yuan was supportive, so he didn't want to talk too much to Pei Lian, so as not to affect Li Shimin's plan.

"But."

Pei Lianhe wanted to say more bad things about Li Shimin.

But seeing that Li Yuan didn't want to say more on this point, he could only give up.

"What did you say at the beginning?"

Li Yuan didn't want Pei Lin to be too aggrieved, so he took the initiative to ask.

Pei Lin is an old friend, and he is not too young, so if he can give him decency, he will give him decency.

"Your Majesty, it's okay if you don't say it, I'll be angry when you say it."

"The new Chang'an Order, not only did he not respect the documents of the Criminal Department to transfer prisoners, but also did not listen to the suspension of Shangshu Province for reflection, and even wanted His Majesty to sue me and let me be suspended for three days."

"I'm old, I've worked hard for the Tang Dynasty for more than ten years, and I have no merit and hard work, but the emperor completely obeys his will, my heart is so bitter, Your Majesty !!"

Pei Lin made the grievances huge.

wants to use hard work to arouse the love between him and Li Yuan.

"In the past ten years, it has been really hard."

"Don't worry, I'll say the emperor when I turn around, and you don't have to suspend yourself for reflection."

When Li Yuan heard this, he really remembered the previous bits.

It can be said that if there is no Pei Lian, there will be no current Datang.

Pei Lin is the first hero of the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and his merit and hard work are ranked first.

The emperor suspended Pei Lin because of such a trivial matter, which was really too much.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Pei Lin was overjoyed and immediately thanked.

"It's all said, don't call me Your Majesty."

Li Yuan sighed, shook his head and said.

He no longer has a grudge for power, and he no longer wants to hear the title of the emperor.

Although there was no one else in Tai'an Palace, even if someone saluted him and shouted long live, it would not be spread, but Li Yuan still didn't want Pei Lin to be like this.

"Yes, I know wrong."

"Your Majesty. No, Emperor Tai, there is one more thing. ”

"That Chang'an Lingmu has no respect for the law, I thought I had to hone and hone it again, how about transferring to the Lingnan management bureaucracy?"

Pei Lin sneered.

I almost had the wrong name.

"You are a scholar, and you can't transfer an official?"

"Hey, no, is the Chang'an Order you said called Fang Yuan?"

Li Yuan sighed in his heart.

I feel that Pei Lian's power is very limited.

It is estimated that the emperor wanted the power of Shangshu Province in the hands of his own people.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan felt that Pei Lin should retreat sharply, leaving a good reputation or it would be better.

"That's right, it's called Fang Yuan."

"Yes, I am a dignified left servant, and I can't even transfer an official, do you say that you are not angry, and you are not aggrieved?"

Pei Lin said bitterly.

His eyes flashed coldly at this moment.

It is Fang Yuan's special official position, and he also has the support of the emperor.

Whether it was Fang Yuan or the emperor, Pei Lin was very dissatisfied with them.

"It turned out to be Fang Yuan."

"Then forget it, you let a junior be."

Li Yuan remembered Fang Yuan.

So he took the initiative to pour wine for Pei Lin and intercede.

"Huh?"

"You intercede with him? Why? ”

Pei Lin was very blinded, and his eyes were wide open.

It's just a small Chang'an order, not only the emperor cares for it, but the emperor also takes care of it?

"This guy saved me in Xiao Yu's mansion, you should know about it, right?"

Li Yuan explained.

Fang Yuan was named the founding county of Chang'an County because he saved himself.

Many people should know about this, and Pei Lin shouldn't know about it.

"Well, I know, but."

Pei Lin was stunned again.

Isn't it reasonable for a courtier to save the emperor or to save the emperor?

And they have all been rewarded with knighthoods, so there is no need to cover up in other things, right?

The most important thing is that compared to Fang Yuan, can't he even compare?

"But what?"

Li Yuan asked puzzled.

"Nothing, nothing."

"Since you've said so, then I won't be like him."

Pei Lin sneered.

The corners of his mouth twitched.

His eyes were colder, more angry.

The more Li Shimin and Li Yuan sheltered Fang Yuan, the more he hated Fang Yuan.

The identity of a homeless person is still riding on his head, and he wants to turn the sky upside down?

"Come, it's rare for you to come over, let's have a drink!"

Li Yuan raised his glass in satisfaction.

Laughing and getting drunk with Pei Lian.

Good friends are rare, so naturally they have to celebrate.

Although Li Yuan and Pei Lin are both very free, they don't see each other often.

Most of the time, Pei Lin took the initiative to see Li Yuan, and Li Yuan rarely summoned Pei Yuan.

"No, no, I still have something to do, so the minister will retire first."

Pei Lin didn't take the wine glass.

He wasn't in the mood at all and didn't want to drink with Li Yuan.

When he came to Li Yuan today, he felt like an abandoned old dog.

It has always been he who took the initiative to kneel and lick Li Yuan, and Li Yuan did not take himself seriously.

After decades of feelings, he didn't even help himself, and he was biased towards Fang Yuan, which was really infuriating.

"What's the matter?"

Li Yuan was stunned and looked at Pei Lin in confusion.

He seemed to feel that Pei Lin was a little unhappy, but he wasn't sure.

Today he has drunk a lot, and he is old, and his senses are not so strong.

"I'll come and drink with you next time."

Pei Lin did not explain.

Just saluted Li Yuan and left.

When Li Yuan turned his head, his expression became grim.

Since the emperor doesn't help himself get justice, then come by yourself.

Emperor, if you suspend me in front of the officials of Shangshu Province, you will regret it.

Pei Lin left Tai'an Palace.

He did not return to Shangshu Province and did not return home.

Alone and without an escort, he was nowhere to be found.

Chang'an City County Ya.

Fang Yuan sat under the office of fairness and integrity.

The person who was staring at Li Junxian and exchanging Cheng Biting Gold had already come back to report.

After learning that the Boling Cui clan had no follow-up, Fang Yuan was surprised.

One of the five surnames and seven hopes was humiliated like this, and there was no reason not to act.

Or not inaction, but a bigger storm waiting to be faced.

Thinking of this, Fang Yuan set off to enter the prison, and under the condition of ensuring confidentiality, he met Princess Gaomi, who was being held alone.

At this time, Princess Gaomi had nothing else unsuitable except for the lack of freedom and the relatively simple environment in which she lived.

But

"Fang Yuan, you bastard, you're finally here."

"Let me go, I don't want to stay here for a moment."

As soon as Princess Gaomi saw Fang Yuan coming, she immediately shouted.

The environment here is so bad that there will be rats and cockroaches when you sleep at night.

This is definitely the first experience for Princess Gaomi, who has been dressed and eaten since she was a child.

Rats and cockroaches are such things as only books that Princess Gaomi has ever seen.

"Let you out now, you may not live tomorrow."

Fang Yuan told Cui Xuansu's deal.

will also talk about the experience of contradicting Li Shimin when he was in the palace.

"Then I can't be locked up like this for the rest of my life, can I?"

Princess Gaomi suddenly said with a sad face.

Fang Yuan beat Cui Xuansu violently, and played Boling Cui's family, but he didn't retaliate.

It's certainly not that you don't want to retaliate, it's not that you don't dare to retaliate, but that there will be something more terrible.

And the emperor, listening to Fang Yuan's meaning, seems to have sacrificed himself, and it would be better to make this matter a headless case completely.

At this time, Princess Gaomi could only trust Fang Yuan, but staying in this environment for a long time was not what she wanted, and she really couldn't stand it.

"Bear with me."

"When the turmoil subsides a little, I'll send you out of Chang'an City."

Fang Yuan comforted.

It is not realistic to be detained all the time.

It's even more unrealistic to let her out.

Then let's see if there's a chance to transfer.

"Okay."

"Then can you arrange for a few people to use for me?"

"These days, I call the heavens not spiritual, and the earth and the earth should not be!"

Princess Gaomi sat on the ground in frustration.

In the past few days, when Fang Yuan didn't arrive, only someone brought him food.

And because she didn't know what the other party was, Princess Gaomi didn't dare to reveal her identity.

Therefore, I have endured it until Fang Yuan arrives, improving the environment here, and improving daily life.

"You can leave someone for you to command."

Fang Yuan thought for a while and said.

"Only one?"

"Then you can arrange a few more male inmates for me, it's boring here."

Princess Gaomi exclaimed.

Seeing that Fang Yuan was unmoved, he finally transferred the conditions.

"What do you want?"

Fang Yuan was stunned, then rolled his eyes.

Give it to a few male inmates and give it to her, prostitution in prison?

It is impossible to agree to such a thing.

"Huh?"

"What?"

Princess Gaomi was puzzled.

But Fang Yuan had already walked out.

No matter how she shouted, Fang Yuan ignored her.

In the end, Princess Gaomi had to sit on the ground in a huff and sulk.

Fang Yuan walked out of the cell and saw Zheng Jiu trotting in from outside, looking a little flustered.

"Fang Ling, big event."

"Pei Xiang was assassinated, and he doesn't know if he lives or dies!"

Zheng Jiu nervously reported.

"What?"

Fang Yuan was startled, and his pupils contracted unconsciously.

Pei Lin is the left servant of Shangshu and the first person to be a powerful person in the dynasty.

There are still people who dare to assassinate and eat the bear's heart and leopard gall?

"Pei Xiang was assassinated, and he doesn't know if he lives or dies!"

"I heard that he came out of Tai'an Palace alone, without guards by his side, and was succeeded by the assassins."

Zheng Jiu's voice trembled a little and said.

"Where is Pei Xiang now?"

"And did the assassin catch it?"

Fang Yuan felt his head big.

Assassination in Chang'an City, that's his business.

Although he was very unhappy with Pei Lian, he was the left servant of Shangshu.

If such a person is assassinated, the entire court will seek justice for him.

Next, it's definitely a high-pressure moment, and it's impossible for everyone to be alone.

"Sent back to Pei's Mansion by passers-by, the assassin fled."

Zheng Jiu said urgently.

"Immediately send a message to the palace, and at the same time send a message to the generals who are guarding the city in all directions to strictly check the entry and exit."

"Also, gather all the officials to find the assassin for Pei Xiang and avenge him!"

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

I am arranging a countermeasure to this change.

There is no doubt that Pei Lian's assassination will cause a lot of fluctuations.

But Fang Yuan thought too easily, Pei Lian's assassination was simply a shock to the world.

"Big news, big news, Pei Xiang was assassinated, life and death are unknown!"

"I heard that when Pei was assassinated, there was no guard around!"

"The dignified Shangshu Province is the first person in the court, why don't you have a single guard around?"

"It was said that His Majesty reprimanded Pei Xiang for three days, and Pei Xiang was dissatisfied and went to Tai'an Palace alone to find the Emperor Taishang to shout grievances, but at that time, someone saw that Pei Xiang's expression was not very good."

"It's really sad, I have worked hard for the country and the people all my life, the first person to make a contribution to the founding of the Tang Dynasty, but Your Majesty was suspended for three days because of a trivial matter, which is really chilling."
