Hanlin Courtyard is located in the northwest of Daming Palace, west of Lin De Palace. On the north bank of the Cao Canal in the north of the Lin De Palace, it is the location of the 24 portraits of the famous "Lingyan Pavilion" of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also in an inconspicuous small building next to the Sanqing Palace. It is only because of the destruction of the Huangchao Rebellion that the remaining ruins have not been completely restored.

This is the official office where the emperor's servants and attendants have gathered since the Tang Dynasty and the Li family. Whether it is a jinshi, a counselor, or a disciple of Liyuan, the prince and the prince, the prince and the young prince, and the prince's guests, etc., can be included in the Hanlin Academy. However, since Tang Xuanzong Li Longji, those singing and dancing talents in the palace have been separated from the Hanlin Academy and gathered under the Liyuan Gate. The famous poet Li Bai was once recommended by a friend and was summoned by Xuanzong to the capital to worship Hanlin. Perhaps, Li Bai, the great talent of Hanlin in the past, was known as the "No. 1 master of Hanlin" at that time. However, who should be called the first in today's Hanlin Deep Academy?

"Lord Huang! I have something to discuss! ”

"Oh?! ......" A yellow-clothed official turned around, looked at the comer, and said, "It turned out to be Lord Cui, the servant of the Criminal Department!" You're not on an errand in the criminal department, what are you doing here with a knife? ”

"Lord Huang!" The waiter Cui Tianlei hurriedly said to Huang Chongyang and Lord Huang: "Presumably you already know that the Son of Heaven wants to recruit thieves!" ……”

"This thing! Of course I do! Lord Huang replied, "And I also know that my wife's cousin Ye Wuwu and the Second Taibao have gone to Anling today!" ”

"Lord Huang! You know only one thing! Do you know someone is behind this plan to sabotage it? ”

"Oh? ......" Lord Huang was secretly taken aback when he heard this, and said, "Who is so bold? ”

"Who else? Prime Minister Chen Cheng has secretly sent our criminal department to wipe out all the thieves! ”

"It turned out to be him!" Huang Chongyang frowned and said: "I heard that he also convened three provinces and six ministries to jointly write a letter stating the benefits and disadvantages of Zhao'an, and even the Son of Heaven has thought twice about this!" ”

"But now that the imperial decree has been issued, it is still acting according to the original plan. Someone wants to make trouble from it, and as a guest of the crown prince and the first bachelor of Hanlin, you can't sit idly by, right? Cui Tianlei said anxiously.

"Not bad! I used to be a guest on the throne, but now it's different! Huang Chongyang was a little embarrassed, and said after thinking about it.

"No!" The waiter Cui Tianlei said categorically, "You used to be a guest of the prince, but now the prince is the son of heaven, and you are a guest of the son of heaven." What's more, you are still the little prince's master, you go to report to the Son of Heaven and ask the emperor to make a decision quickly. Otherwise, the recruitment plan is bound to be completely frustrated! ”

"Alright! It's rare that you are warm-blooded, and I will go to meet you immediately. ”

····························································································

"What?! Prime Minister Chen dared to make trouble from it! I saw the Son of Heaven looking at Huang Chongyang, a scholar from Hanlin and said, "This matter is very important, you immediately follow me to lead the Imperial Forest Army to stop it!" ”

····························································································

"Big brother! They're coming! ”

"Oh? …… They only came with two men and two horses! "Huangling Thief" Huang Junwei stood among the leaders of the kings and thieves and said, "It seems that they are Yewu Zhuangyuan and the second Taibao Situ Yimin!" ”

"Not bad! It must be them! "Anling thief" Liu Anguo echoed on the side.

"Boss Huang!" "Qinling Flying Thieves" Qin Peixian said suspiciously, "There is a way that soldiers are not tired of cheating, who knows if there are thousands of troops behind them?" ”

"Brother Qin is right!" Huang Junwei showed a fierce look on his face and said, "It seems that we must send someone to investigate in case something changes!" ”

"Brother Huang!" Wang Dongfeng, the great thief of Yongling in the Western Wei Dynasty, volunteered and said, "Let me go!" I'll be sure to touch them and report back to you! ”

"Good! Brother Wang went quickly and returned quickly. ”

So, the great thief Wang Dongfeng urged the horse to gallop towards the Southern Avenue ~~~~~~

At this time, Yawu Champion and the "Emperor's Secret Envoy" had crossed their horses to the front of the thieves. Situ Taibao first smiled and said politely: "Let you guys wait for a long time." Today, we have been ordered to negotiate with you about recruitment, and I hope we have a happy ending! ”

"Situ Taibao!" "Huangling Thief" responded, "Whether the ending is happy or not, it depends on whether you are sincere?" ”

Hearing Huang Junwei's concerns, Ye Wuwu, who was sitting on the saddle, said loudly: "The holy purpose is this, is this not sincere?" ”

"Hahaha......" Huang Junwei couldn't help laughing out loud and said, "The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the holy decree is just a piece of paper for us people!" ”

"Your Excellency, please don't be disrespectful!" Ye Wuwu immediately said, "Now it seems that it is not that we are insincere, but that you are not sincere in negotiating!" ”

When the "Huangling Thief" heard this, he couldn't help but take a closer look at Ye Harmless, and said: "Presumably you are the Wu Zhuangyuan who was chased and killed by the officers and soldiers first, and then should be edicted to the court. ”

"Not bad! Foolish brother exactly! Yah replied without being arrogant or humble.

"Hmmm! …… Good! Huang Junwei couldn't help but roll his eyes, pondering and said, "It seems that there is a door to Zhao'an!" But how will your court recruit us? ”

Hearing this, Situ Yimin, the second Taibao, signaled to Ye Wuwu and said, "Ye Zhuangyuan! The decree may be read to him. ”

So, Ye Wuwu took out the holy decree from his arms, slowly took it away, looked at the group of thieves in front of him, and began to read aloud: "Fengtian Cheng Yu, the emperor's edict said: The country is in trouble, and the husband is responsible." To govern the country and secure the country, it is natural to recruit a wide range of wizards for the country's heavy use. Today, the world's thieves will be recruited, regardless of past suspicions, and each will be promoted to a knight; I hope that you can change your evil and return to righteousness, abandon evil and follow good, and use your heart of idleness and thieves for the national economy and people's livelihood. In this way, the world can be peaceful and prosperous, and those who abandon evil and follow good can make the best use of it and get what they want, so why not? Therefore, I hope that the thieves in various places do not need to worry, give up their thief heart as soon as possible and return to the imperial court, and serve the country. This can be described as: the prodigal son does not change his money, and he changes his evil and returns to the praise of the world. Today, the twelve thieves of the Han Tomb are the twelve guards of the Han Tomb, the eleven thieves of the Tang Tomb are the eleventh guards of the Tang Tomb, and the thieves of the Huangling, Qinling and Yongling of the Western Wei Dynasty are each named the guardians of the tomb, which are under the unified command of the special commissioner of the imperial court, Ye Buwu and Situ Yimin. I hope that you will do your best, fulfill your duties, strictly abide by your posts, and protect the property of the country. Those who have made outstanding achievements and have meritorious service in defending are to be commended until they are promoted to higher ranks. ”

Thinking of this, Ye Wuwu paused for a moment, looked at the group of thieves who were about to move, and said: "Now I will take the roll call first, and I hope you will report truthfully." ”

So, Ye Wuwu once again picked up the holy decree and read aloud: "Huang Junwei, the guardian general of Huangling!" ”

"Here!"

"Qin Ling's guardian Qin Peixian!"

"To—"

"Wang Dongfeng, the guardian general of the Yongling Tomb of the Western Wei Dynasty!"

…… No one answered. So, Ye Wuwu shouted again: "Yongling Guardian General Wang Dongfeng!" ”

…… Still no one responded.

At this point, he decided to make one last attempt, and if no one responded, he would be temporarily placed in a pending position. However, when his cry spread throughout Anling, there was a sudden "click" of horses' hooves behind him, and someone shouted: "Report - report (to)"
