In the early years of the Tang Dynasty, King Tang worked hard, and Chang'an City was a thriving scene. Until the king of Tang became obsessed with Liu Guifei, from then on, the king did not go to court early, and three thousand favored in one.

The right minister Li Fulin leaned towards the government and the opposition, as if he had become the controller of Chang'an, and the Tang king rarely appeared in the court, and the government and government were decided by the right minister. Uncle Liu Guozhong did what he liked, and he did everything he could to tie up Li Fulin, and finally climbed to the position of the secretary of the Ministry of Heavenly Officials, held a high position, and became the most powerful figure in Chang'an City.

Liufu, occupy most of the Chongren Fang, pavilions and pavilions, scattered, the outer wall is tall and majestic, there is a hole in the inside, it is like the winding path of the south of the Yangtze River, the courtyard is deep. Each scenery is carefully constructed, and the first time you enter Liufu is like being in a beautiful picture, with the towering mountains and rivers, and the deep lakes. It is touching that although it is made by man, it is like opening from heaven.

In the hall, an obese middle-aged military general, with a low voice, presented a rosewood box with both hands, with a flattering smile on his face, and immediately knelt in front of Liu Guozhong, saying a word to uncle.

Originally, he was several years younger than Liu Guozhong, and he actually recognized Liu Guifei as his mother-in-law, and since then, when he found something rare, he ran to Liufu with a dead face, and did not hesitate to kneel down to Liu Guozhong frequently. Liu Guozhong became more and more fond of this Hu general, and single-handedly promoted him to a high position as the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army.

Although the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army and the secretary of the Ministry of Shangshu are all high-ranking officials of the third grade, the Tang State in the poetic and elegant realm emphasizes literature and light on martial arts, and it is not said that the status of military attaches of the same grade is far inferior to that of civilian officials, that is, the status of civilian officials of the lower grade is still slightly higher than that of military attachés.

The official department is a heavenly official, and the promotion of officials below the fourth grade is in his hands, where is the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army, which can be compared to this martial artist. The strength of the Southern Ya Forbidden Army is far inferior to that of the Northern Ya Liuwei, that is, the commander of the Northern Ya Forbidden Army, Nangong Hongye, saw Liu Guozhong, and he had to bow his head respectfully, and the Southern Ya Forbidden Army was just a group of horsemen in Liu Guozhong's eyes, just look at the ordinary people in Nancheng and don't make trouble.

Liu Guozhong was very satisfied with the rolling mountain, crawling in front of him like a dog all day long, Liu Guozhong gently patted the fat cheek of the rolling mountain, and said with a smile: "Get up, little nephew, we are all a family, don't see outside, always kneel down when you see me, and when you turn around, your godmother will blame me if she knows." ”

Where is the mountain willing to get up, flattering: "It is a family, the nephew must remember the ordinary people, often come to visit the uncle, see the uncle is healthy, the nephew can eat, sleep, and hope that the uncle will pity the poor nephew, so let the nephew come to see the uncle every three or five days, otherwise the nephew should have trouble sleeping." ”

Liu Guozhong held his head high, looked at the mountain like a lackey, and said with a smile: "Okay, I know your filial piety, and in ten days there will be a big Jiao in the world, when the king will come in person, you must be fully prepared, if there is a mistake, my head will not be protected, but before my head hits the ground, I will definitely unscrew your head." ”

Liu Guozhong, who was still kind to him just now, suddenly had a sudden change in expression, and he immediately fell to the ground in fear, and he didn't dare to come out, and swore that "if there is a mistake, I will cut off this useless head myself." ”

Liu Guozhong was very satisfied when he saw that Rolling Mountain was so groveling, and it was the Beiya Forbidden Army that originally served as the guard, but Nangong Hongye, a brainless guy, although he didn't dare to be disrespectful to himself, always stayed away, but he was very close to Zuo Xianglin Jiuling, as if he was standing on the opposite side of Li Fulin, therefore, Liu Guozhong introduced the Rolling Mountain to the king through Liu Guifei, and the king was extremely satisfied with the Rolling Mountain, so he entrusted him with an important task and handed over the sacrifice of the Putian Jiao to the Ministry of Rites, and asked the Rolling Mountain to assist in the operation.

After the important thing was finished, Liu Guozhong gently kicked the mountain and said, "Get out." ”

Rolling Shan immediately kowtowed and said, "Obey, uncle." Then, I saw more than 300 catties of meat rolling out of the hall like a ball of meat. made Liu Guozhong cry and laugh, but finally shook his head, waved his hand, turned away, and didn't look at it anymore.

Rolling out of the hall, the general Kui Gan immediately helped the eldest brother up, and the two of them left Liufu as if they were fleeing. Even the people of Liufu sneered at the bullshit that looked like a bear, and the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army sneered.

However, just after leaving the Liufu, the burly body of the mountain gradually straightened up, and only then did he have a bit of heroic momentum, and rode straight to Xuandu with Cuigan.

Coincidentally, Xu Tianran, Wu Qingfeng and Nangong Qianbai were outside the Xuandu Temple, lying on the wall, looking at the quiet Xuandu for a long time and couldn't see anything strange. Wu Qingfeng had already secretly run to the trunk of the tree in the distance, holding the Qingfeng Sword and pretending to sleep.

Xu Tianran also felt that he couldn't see any clues today, so he would wait for tomorrow's excuse to go in and incense and investigate again. Just when the three of them were about to leave, the two horsemen came from the north, the momentum was violent, and the people in front of them did not look like the Central Plains, but had a bit of Turkic appearance. Xu Tianran rarely saw the Turks, so he pressed Nangong Qianbai and made a silent gesture, signaling that he was looking.

Where did Xu Tianran know that the comers were Rolling Mountain and Kuigan, but when the drums sounded, they didn't see the two leave, but Nangong Qianbai had to go home, it was already a little late today, I am afraid that going home will inevitably be the blame of my mother and the resentful eyes of Rou'er.

The temples of the Tang Kingdom are like a lifeless pond.

Li Fulin's mansion is not shabby, nor is it as extravagant and vast as Liu Guozhong, Li Fulin is a capable minister and a villain. He is good at winning people's hearts, and he is even better at excluding dissidents, and the party of Zuo Prime Minister Lin Jiuling was suppressed by him. Li Fulin was in his own home, looking at the huge Chang'an City from afar, and then at his own hands, who would have thought that the Tang Kingdom would be in his own hands.

In fact, Li Fulin looked down on Liu Guozhong in his heart, in his eyes Liu Guozhong was a waste who climbed up by nepotism, but he was lucky, he had a good father and mother, and gave birth to a good sister. Li Fulin chose to join forces with Liu Guozhong, and finally suppressed the political enemy in one fell swoop, and now only Lin Jiuling and Nangong Hongye are left with two hard bones that have not been taken down by themselves, otherwise, the Manchu Dynasty will no longer have its own enemies, even if it is not impossible to refer to the deer as a horse.

Li Fulin looked at the lights of Chang'an, his eyes flashed with a hint of gloom, the Putian Jiao was an excellent opportunity, he wanted to take this opportunity to completely defeat Lin Jiuling and Nangong Hongye.

It's night, and the moon is like water.

A horse galloped in the city, even though it was a curfew, no one dared to stop him, because he was the commander of the Nanya Forbidden Army. Rolling the mountain galloped all the way, wearing the stars and the moon and went straight to the right minister's house.

Nangong Hongye rarely returned home, so he met Nangong Qianbai and two scholars sneaking out of the house, and he also heard that the hidden monsters in Chang'an would cause disaster to the world, and some rumors went straight to the palace general's mansion. Now that Chang'an City knows that Nangong Hongye has a white-eyed son who has been raised in the deep courtyard for 20 years, Nangong Hongye knows who created this rumor and what it is after careful consideration.

Nangong Qianbai has not had many opportunities to see his father since he was a child, his father has served in the forbidden army since he was a child, and he has not had much time at home, but every time he comes back, he will go to Luntai Tower to visit him, although he is silent, but Qianbai also knows that this is the silent father's love.

This time, Nangong Hongye saw that Qianbai was stubborn, although he knew that the temple dispute was the root cause, and he couldn't blame his son, but he was also tired of coping, and he pitied his son even more, for fear that he would make a mistake outside one day and be caught, and the gods would be difficult to save at that time.

Nangong Qianbai went home and saw his father sitting in the hall, knowing that he was going to be scolded, so he could only move forward honestly, and said with a smile: "Dad, are you back?" I will pour you a cup of tea to quench your thirst." ”

Nangong Hongye grimaced and said solemnly: "Excuse me." ”

Qianbai knew that it generally didn't even work to pour tea, so he had to ask for family law, and looked at his mother aggrievedly, but he didn't think that his mother didn't speak this time, did he really want to call every day and the earth to be ineffective?

Nangong Hongye said majestically: "That's your two personal gold medal scholars?"

Qianbai had an ominous premonition and said softly, "Yes." ”

Nangong Hongye said sternly: "Call them both together." ”

Qianbai immediately shook his head, and said righteously: "One person does things and one person is responsible, I carry my own fault, and if you want to beat me, you will beat me alone." ”

Nangong Hongye slapped the table heavily, startling Qianbai, and even Xu Tianran and Wu Qingfeng sensed a trace of danger.

Qianbai knew that he couldn't disobey his father's orders, so he could only beckon and call Xu Tianran and Wu Qingfeng over.

As soon as Xu Tianran and Wu Qingfeng entered the hall, they saw Nangong Hongye's angry face, and they knew that they were going to suffer.

Nangong Hongye saw that the two scholars were so bold, which caused Qianbai to be bold and reckless, it seems that if he doesn't punish him today, Qianbai will definitely wear a big disaster in the future.

Nangong Hongye's expression was majestic, and he said in a deep voice: "Since the two of you entered the General's Mansion, Qianbai has not stopped for a day, running out day and night, can you be guilty?"

Qianbai immediately defended: "The blame lies with me, not with them, and I ask my father to spare them, I will never sneak out of the house again." ”

Nangong Hongye slowly put down the teacup and said loudly: "You can't escape, butler, please have a family law." ”

There was a look of unbearability on the lady's face, but seeing that her husband was so angry today, she didn't dare to persuade her, and now the Nangong family is indeed in a bad situation, once someone is caught, it can't be solved with a single beating.

The Nangong family has been a general for generations, and the family law is naturally a tough horsewhip, Qianbai's eyes are straight, since he was a child, because of his weak body, and he has never been out of the Luntai Tower, his father and mother have never said a heavy word, where can I see such a long whip.

Xu Tianran covered his mouth and snickered, and asked in Wu Qingfeng's ear: "I have been punished since I was a child, and I have long been rough and thick-skinned, have you ever been punished?"

Wu Qingfeng had a smooth life, except for being punished by Duguxin a few times, but he had never been punished, but he also suffered a lot a few times, and it seemed that he was thanks to the surname Xu, and he didn't feel anything when he saw the whip, and the punishment he received before was even more ruthless.

Where did the housekeeper dare to attack the son, but he had long been dissatisfied with these two little scholars of unknown origin for a long time, so he took this opportunity to punish them severely, and also let them know that in the General's Mansion, they must know how to bow their heads.

The housekeeper looked at Xu Tianran and Wu Qingfeng angrily, and said in a deep voice: "Kneel." ”

Xu Tianran and Wu Qingfeng stood still.

The housekeeper couldn't hold back his face, and kicked Xu Tianran's knee hard, but it was like a stone, and he was in great pain. Nangong Hongye's eyes showed a strange look, what is the identity of these two little scholars, and they must be interrogated today.

Xu Tianran clenched his fists and asked: "My surname is Xu, his surname is Wu, and he is not from the General's Mansion, why did he use the Nangong family law to punish us." ”

The housekeeper puffed up and said, "You are the family members of the General's Mansion, why are you not from the General's Mansion." ”

Xu Tianran smiled and said, "Is there a contract?"

As soon as these words came out, the housekeeper was dumbfounded, at that time, it was Gongzi who personally accepted the two scholars, and he never made a contract, and indeed they were not from the General's Mansion. But the housekeeper Zhenzhen said: "You withdraw the monthly money from the account of the General's Mansion every month, doesn't it prove that you are from the General's Mansion." ”

Xu Tianran laughed and said: "Jokes, I won't argue with you about this trivial matter, I just want to say what is wrong with the son, why should he be punished?"

For a while, above the hall, there was silence, and the little scholar dared to question the master.
