In the middle of the dragon chariot, there was a middle-aged man with a majestic physique, wearing a nine-chapter law robe, wearing a crown of twelve beads on his head, holding a long sword, and a round of ontological law that appeared behind him, proving that this middle-aged man was so strong and had the ability to conquer heaven and earth.

This middle-aged man is the emperor of the Tang Empire, Li Daoyuan.

The dragon chariot stopped at the top of the main hall, and Li Daoyuan got up and walked down from the dragon chariot.

In the void, Li Daoyuan walked down step by step. With each step, a golden lotus flower would automatically grow from the soles of his feet, dragging his falling body.

One step at a time, but after a few breaths, Li Daoyuan walked to the dragon chair in the middle of the main hall.

"One step a lotus, one sand and one world, it seems that the father's cultivation is about to reach the realm of tribulation. Li Leng saw at a glance that Li Daoyuan's cultivation was at the peak of the Mahayana realm, and one foot had already stepped into the tribulation realm.

Above the Tribulation Realm, it is the scattered immortals, and it is the immortal body that is separated from the mortal womb.

As soon as Li Daoyuan sat on the dragon chair, all the princes and ministers shouted long live, long live, long live.

There was silence for thirty seconds before Li Daoyuan's majestic voice said coldly: "Get up!"

Everyone was panicked, Li Daoyuan's voice was full of anger, what happened last night must have made him extremely annoyed, I don't know how many people's heads will fall to the ground next.

"Everyone knows what happened last night!" Li Daoyuan's voice was steady, but his tone was fierce and murderous, "This is the shame of my founding of the Tang Dynasty for nearly a thousand years." Dengfeng City, there are 50,000 elites of my Datang, but they were occupied by the Yuanrong clan overnight. Could it be that this is the elite of my Datang? Passed the decree, the defender of Dengfeng City, Ma Shiqi, failed to defend the city and was executed on the spot. The children of his disciples are sent to the frontier to be slaves forever. ”

"Yes. "Someone has been given the order to carry it out.

Yang Su, a scholar of Yingcai Pavilion, walked out slowly, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty, the Yuanrong clan captured Dengfeng City overnight, and there was a guard general Ma Shiqi who was not effective in defending the city, but Weichen believes that if no one sends a message to the Yuanrong clan, the inside and outside will not be broken overnight, and Jinggi will be in danger." ”

Wan Yinglong, the squire of the Criminal Department, said in response: "The minister was ordered to interrogate the rebel general Yan Song last night, according to his confession, it was His Royal Highness the Ten Princes and the Qin family who colluded with the Yuanrong clan and the Demon Dao Alliance, intending to subvert the foundation of the Tang Dynasty and let His Royal Highness the Ten Princes control the Tang Dynasty. ”

The air fell silent all of a sudden, and Li Daoyuan, who was high up, had no waves on his face, glanced at Li Leng lightly, and then fell on Yan Song, and after a while, he asked, "Yan Song, what else do you have to say?"

He didn't ask Li Leng, but asked Yan Song, which made Yang Su frightened, and he didn't know what the Son of Heaven thought in his heart.

Yang Su glared at Yan Song without a trace, Yan Song's eyes showed pain and struggle, and in the end, he still gave in, kowtowed again and again, and said: "Your Highness, I'm sorry for you, I've already recruited everything, please ...... Don't be stubborn. ”

Yan Song's eyes were red, and he choked softly.

The princes and ministers shook their heads one after another, expressing their complete disappointment with Li Leng, and everyone agreed to punish Li Leng with capital punishment to uphold the national prestige of the Tang Dynasty.

Yang Su sneered, his eyes staring at Li Leng coldly, this time he saw how Li Leng escaped from death.

Li Leng looked calm, stood there unhurried, and didn't intend to explain anything.

At this point, silence is golden.

If he doesn't speak, someone will speak for him.

If there are some doubts, others will disagree when he says it, but if another person says it, the effect will be completely different.

"Your Majesty, the minister is against it. A tall and mighty middle-aged man slowly stood up from the second row of queues, bowed to the high Son of Heaven Li Daoyuan, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Yang Su, a scholar, and Wan Yinglong, a waiter of the Criminal Department, accuse His Royal Highness of the Tenth Prince, which is ridiculous, and even ill-intentioned. ”

This man is Mo Ziqing, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Yang Su and Wan Yinglong's faces changed greatly, they never expected that the first person to stand up against them was actually Mo Ziqing, the secretary of the Criminal Department.

Wan Yinglong was a little panicked, and said unconvinced: "Mo Shangshu, Your Majesty asked me to preside over this case, and I have investigated all the details, why do you say that I have ill intentions and deliberately framed the tenth prince Li Leng?"

Li Leng was unmoved, his eyes and nose were looking at his nose, his nose was looking at his heart, and he stood there without saying a word.

The Son of Heaven Li Daoyuan glanced at Li Leng with deep meaning, his fingers lightly tapped the dragon table, and a shallow sneer appeared on his lips.

This Li Leng began to know how to fight back with his mind!

"Is it really all clear?" Mo Ziqing said lightly, "The minister implores Your Majesty to ask the minister a few questions about Scholar Yang and Wan Shilang." After asking these questions, it is clear whether these two people have ill intentions and deliberately framed them. ”

Yang Su and Wan Yinglong's hearts jumped, and they faintly felt uneasy.

Especially Yang Su, he saw that Li Leng was so calm and did not defend any accusations, as if he was submissive.

But he knew in his heart that the current Li Leng was many times more terrifying than the previous Li Leng who only knew how to solve problems by force.

"Quasi-play!" Li Daoyuan's mighty voice came out faintly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Mo Ziqing said: "The first question, can the 100,000 iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan capture Dengfeng City overnight?"

Yang Su and Wan Yinglong both served in the army, and they also led an army to fight against the Yuanrong tribe, so they have a certain understanding of the Yuanrong tribe.

The iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan is good at fighting on the plains, but attacking cities and plundering land is not the strength of the iron cavalry. It is impossible to rely solely on the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan to capture Dengfeng City overnight.

It's not that they haven't thought about this, but they think that there are not many people in the court who have really fought against the Yuanrong tribe, and they won't understand this characteristic of the Yuanrong tribe's iron cavalry.

But now, they were careless.

Obviously, Mo Ziqing came prepared.

Yang Su said lightly: "It is impossible to capture Dengfeng City overnight by relying on the iron cavalry of the Yuanrong clan alone, but if there is an internal response, it is not necessarily. ”

"Dengfeng City guards the gate of Gyeonggi, and the military power is directly controlled by His Majesty, in other words, Ma Shiqi only listens to His Majesty's military orders and will not obey other people's orders, not to mention, I checked the palace entry and exit records last night, and I did not find that His Royal Highness the Ten Princes, or even the entire Ziluo Palace, has ever left the palace, so how can His Royal Highness the Ten Princes cooperate with the Yuanrong clan?" Mo Ziqing asked again unhurriedly.

Wan Yinglong said: "According to Yan Song's explanation, it was the Tenth Prince Li Leng who handed over the defense map of the thirty cities in the northern border to the Yuanrong clan, so that their iron cavalry could easily occupy our land and enslave our people. If the Ten Princes can give the defense map of the thirty cities in the northern border to the Yuanrong clan, can't they give the defense map of Dengfeng City to the Yuanrong clan?"
