The subordinates of the Tao family rushed to the Five Cities Terracotta Division.

The soldiers and horses of the five cities did not dare to delay at all, so they led the troops for the Tao family's mansion.

It's just that when Zhao Yingrong walked into Tao's house with his soldiers, all he saw was a puddle of meat on the ground that couldn't tell what it was, and Ning Jue, who had already tidied up his clothes.

Ning Bingxian...... You. ”

Ning Jue's eyelids didn't even lift.

"I did it."

"Is it going to the Terracotta Division, or Shuntianfu, or Dali Temple, the Criminal Department, and the Imperial Prison?"

Zhao Yingrong gasped with a solemn expression.

"You, why are you doing this!"

………………………………

The lobby of Dali Temple.

Xu Jie, Tu Qiao sat in the hall, and Fu Jiong, the young secretary of Dali Temple, stood aside.

"Tao Qizhi, is he really dead?"

When he first learned the news, Xu Jie couldn't even believe his ears.

From the moment he received my answer from the mouth of the white sheep to flee, Xu Jie knew that the Tao family was finished.

But Xu Jie never expected that Tao Shixian would die directly in the hands of Ning Jue.

"Xu Butang, it's true, the Criminal Department is already in chaos."

"Zisheng, this is your protégé, this is too strong, why is this?"

Xu Jie's brows were always furrowed, as if he had already smelled something unusual.

"I don't know about the other things, I only know that this change in the imperial court is already about to come out."

"Then Li Tong's case ......" Before Tu Qiao's words were finished, Xu Jie directly interrupted.

Xu Jie took a deep breath and said leisurely: "Serve the king for thousands of miles, and have nothing to ask for in your life, An Qing, you and I eat the king's Lu, and we should be loyal to our duties, so that we can report to the monarch's father and go down to An Lishu." ”

Even Fu Jiong's face on the side gradually became ugly.

Do you want to run?

Only Tu Qiao was a little impatient and said: "No, Zisheng, it's all here......"

"An Qing, everything I can do has been done, when we discussed this matter, it was to arrest Li Tongsheng, and now that he has returned to Beijing, he also knows that the prince has made a peace agreement, I have both admonished this proposal and led the errand of the Ministry of Rites, it is difficult for me to ......."

Xu Jiechang sighed, and then didn't get up or speak.

Seeing this, Tu Qiao had no choice but to bow his hand towards Xu Jieyi and said: "Zisheng has a lot of redundant affairs, and the affairs of Dali Temple will be handled by me and Chaojin." ”

After Tu Qiao said this, Xu Jie got up.

"Then Xu will leave first."

Xu Jieke can see it too clearly, at the moment, there is no more of himself, and no less of himself.

When the matter is done, he must be with the same wealth, and he is not the only one who is unlucky if he fails.

The most important thing is that Xu Jie knows that he can avoid it, because no matter what, Xu Jie's protégé is sitting in a high position by himself after all, and the protégé of the court is old, and it is Xu Jie's own protégé.

Tu Qiao is different, Tu Qiao's uncle Tu Tu has been a heavenly official for Xiaozong and Wu Zongye for 12 years, Tu Qiao can be left and right in the court, the most important thing is to rely on his uncle's old face that has been buried in the soil for 30 years.

In recent years, Tu Yun's protégé has almost died, and those who didn't die are left with breath, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the end of Tu Qiao's career.

Tu Qiao is far more than Xu Jie, and he needs to make a name for himself in the mouth of the corporal in the world.

"Tu Zongxian, ......?"

Tu Qiao held his breath and took a deep breath.

"Take me to see Li Tong."

"Whoa." Fu Jiong took Tu Qiao straight to the cell behind Dali Temple.

Not long after, Tu Qiao met Li Tong.

Thanks to the blessing of this injury, Li Tong did not suffer any serious punishment.

Tu Qiao looked at Li Tong not far away, and Li Tong was also looking at Tu Qiao.

"Li Tong, what was the truth about the prison case back then?"

"You're the one who speaks with weight?"

Fu Jiong's face was shocked, and then he said: "Bold Li Rebellion, this is the Imperial Emperor Tu General Xian of the Left Capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!" ”

Li Tong's eyes gradually narrowed.

"General Constitution...... That's a little bit of weight. ”

Tu Qiao stared at Li Tong and said softly, "What, don't you plan to talk?" ”

Li Tong didn't make a sound, but looked at Fu Jiong on the side.

Tu Qiao made a look, and Fu Jiong withdrew from the cell, until there was no one around, and Li Tong spoke.

"I want to live, but I don't want officials."

Tu Qiao snorted suspiciously: "It's quite sober." ”

"Yes, I want you to take me back to the grasslands, but can you agree?"

"It's not difficult to just want to live." Tu Qiao didn't talk nonsense with Li Tong, and opened his mouth directly.

"I still want to go to sea, I won't go to the grassland, can I go to the sea? If I continue to stay in Daming, can I still be considered alive? Li Tong looked at Tu Qiao with some provocation.

"Then you're not afraid of dying at sea?" Without waiting for Tu Qiao to finish speaking, Li Tong directly interrupted Tu Qiao's words.

"Mr. Tao, there should be no kung fu to entangle with me, that little brother surnamed Ning, I'm afraid he won't let him go so easily, right?"

Tu Qiao was shocked when he heard this, obviously Tu Qiao didn't expect that Li Tong had already found out Tao Shixian's identity, and then raised his head suddenly.

"You told Ning Jue?"

Li Tong smiled: "Otherwise? I have no way to go north, no way to go abroad, what else can I talk to you about? ”

Tu Qiao forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and stared at Li Tongdao: "Okay, I'll save your life!" Afterwards, I will think of replacing you with other death row prisoners, and after you leave Beijing, you will go directly to Shandong by boat, and don't go back to the Central Plains in this life. ”

Li Tong bowed slightly.

"Below, thank you to Tu Zongxian."

Then Li Tong shouted outside the prison room: "Fu Shaoqing, come on, I want to confess, draw a prisoner, Zhang Yin, it is the ancestor!" ”

In the end, Li Tong didn't forget to take a look at Tu Qiao.

"Tu Zongxian, can I trust you?"

"Believe it, but you don't have to draw a bet!"

As long as it is determined that Li Tong still wants to live, then the rest of the things will be easy to do, and Tu Qiao's whole person will become a lot tougher.

After that, Tu Qiao brushed his sleeves away, and as soon as he walked out of the cell, he saw Fu Jiong walking towards him with pen and ink.

"Tu Zongxian, this ......"

Tu Qiao waved his hand a little tiredly.

"I'm going to draw it, I still have something to do."

"No, Constitution, the ship ......"

Tu Qiao's eyes widened, and he whispered in a suppressed voice:

"Ship or ship, do you really believe it? He is now in a panic, bluffing him into drawing a charge first, and when the things that should be done are done, he will be sentenced to a happy death! ”

"Oh, yes, I'll do it."

At present, Tu Qiao is most worried about Jiajing in Tongzhou.

The battle of Xuanfu has been fought.

Jiajing still refused to come back in Tongzhou, Tu Qiao didn't have to think about it, naturally Jinyiwei had already reported Li Tong's matter to Jiajing.

The longer Li Tong is locked up in Dali Temple, the greater the variables, which will make me afraid that not only Jinyiwei and Dongchang's people want to kill Li Tong.

I'm afraid that the Yan family is also thinking of telling Li Tong to shut up forever.

"Chaojin."

Fu Jiong, who was just about to go to the cell, couldn't help but be stunned.

"The Tao family's plan in this case can't bypass you, if you see Zhan Ru later, ask them to ......" Tu Qiao's face froze.

"Please make it clear in the General Constitution."

"At this juncture, it's better to do something than to sit still, if the Son of Heaven doesn't return to Luan, then before the Son of Heaven returns to Luan, give him Ning Ke and finally complete the iron case!"

"Whoa!"

Thinking of this, Tu Qiao picked up his pen and wrote another note asking the Son of Heaven to return to Luan.

Tu Qiao was not the first to persuade Jiajing to return to Luan, Jiajing obviously deliberately did not return to Luan, and hid in Tongzhou to wait for changes in the DPRK.

It wasn't until Zhu Zaili personally led Zhou Shangwen's family soldiers to Tongzhou's Shuici Warehouse.

"Erchen Zhu Zaili is respectful."

"All the captives have been appeased, and I respectfully invite my father to return to Luan to see the court."

Zhu Zaili fell to his knees heavily, but there was silence behind the gate of Shuicicang for a long time, and Zhang Zuo quietly appeared after a long time.

"Your Highness, the emperor has summoned you in."

Zhu Zaili raised his head with some doubts, and then followed Zhang Zuo into the water warehouse.

In the warehouse, Zhu Zaili saw Yan Shifan squatting in the corner with "dark clouds" and "ruler jade".

Huang Jin glanced at Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan took the two lion cats and escaped as if he jumped out of the water warehouse, and not long after Yan Shifan went out, Jiajing's angry rebuke sounded in the water warehouse.

"Get on your knees!"

"Erchen...... Kneeling. ”

Jiajing turned around suddenly, pointed at Zhu Zaili's nose and scolded angrily: "You braved arrows, chased the enemy for 400 miles, and went to the city to help the battle without authorization, who do you think you are?" Are you Wei Qing?! ”

"Zhang Juzheng, as a waiter in the East Palace, let you out of the palace, Zhou Shangwen, as a general of Pingyu, but let you take risks alone, a group of bastards!"

The scolding continued, and Jiajing's eyes also looked around Zhu Zaili's body.

"Son, I respectfully invite my father to return to Luan."

"Hui Luan, Hui Luan, is Luan ready?"

Only then did Huang Jin speak.

"Emperor, it's ready, just outside the warehouse."

"Let the prince go to Luan and kneel, and kneel all the way from Tongzhou to the Forbidden City, and return to Luan!"

Zhu Zaili raised his head in shock.

"What's the crime of the son?"

"You're not convinced? I returned to the palace after being dissatisfied, and then went to the temple to kneel, kneeling until I knew my mistake! ”

Huang Jin hurriedly stepped forward and picked up Zhu Zaili, and whispered: "Prince, the emperor will be angry, you can get on Luan first." ”

Zhu Zaili didn't wait to speak, and was "escorted" by Zhang Zuo all the way to Luan, but Jiajing was still standing in the warehouse.

"Emperor, Governor Lu and Zhang Zuo are back."

Knowing that Li Tong was captured, Lu Bing was naturally scolded bitterly.

It's just that the battlefield is turbulent, and whoever strikes first can grab this person, not to mention a seriously injured Li Tong.

Jiajing didn't punish Lu Bing too much.

Whether he can survive to Jingshi is still a matter of whether he has to send Zhang Zuo and Lu Bing to give it a final try, and then wait for the result.

It's just that Jiajing stopped moving.

Huang Jin made a look, and the guards behind him withdrew one after another, and Huang Jin whispered: "Emperor, the slaves and maids have just seen it, and the prince has added some calluses to his hands, and there are a few small injuries, so it's not a big deal." ”

When Jiajing heard this, he snorted coldly and strode towards Luan outside the water warehouse.

Just after Jiajing walked out of the water warehouse, Zhang Zuo and Lu Bing came over almost at the same time, and said in a low voice: "The minister is dead." ”

Jiajing's expression was cloudy, obviously having guessed that the two had failed to kill Li Tong.

Even Zhu Zaili has arrived in Tongzhou, and Jiajing already knows that he can't hide anymore.

If you continue to stay in Tongzhou, you can't talk about it.

"Tell Yan Song to go out of the suburbs to greet him."

"Whoa!"

Jiajing was certainly angry, but this time, Jiajing always felt different from any previous time.

Especially when he learned that Zhu Zaili was not wearing armor, he went out to meet me in person.

Jiajing never expected that when he reached middle age, his last confidence was given by his son.

There are successors, what can you do when you doctors win?

In the future, when the crown prince succeeds to the throne, he will continue to fight with you.

An emperor with real military merits, have you ever really fought?
