Chapter 36: The Worm and Thief of the Nation
Lanling Pei family, the family is big, if it is in another place, it will not be so boastful, the key is that Linzao Pass is equivalent to the gateway of Lanling Mansion, Pei Yan is equivalent to being in front of his own door in Linzao Pass, if he still has to cower, it is inevitable that he will be too cowardly.
What's more, there is the imperial court behind him, as well as Qingluanwei, the celebrant and the queen mother, this is the name of righteousness, in ancient times, there was a coercion of the Son of Heaven and the princes, and now he occupies the name of righteousness, how can it be reasonable.
Pei Yan stretched out his hand and nodded at Li Xuandu, then pointed at Pei Zhou and the others, and sneered: "You are against the party, secretly colluding with the people in the Qingyang Sect, and plotting against the people, this is a big crime of rebellion." ”
Even if Pei Zhou was so self-contained, after hearing this, his face was slightly cold. For these Confucian children, they are not afraid of death, if they die well, they dare to die, and they are most afraid of being slandered for disloyalty and injustice, and they will bear a bad reputation after they die.
Pei Zhou is still like this, and Pei Yu and Pei Zhu, the young sisters who have not experienced too many storms, are even more pale.
Only Li Xuandu's face was still calm, and his tone was indifferent: "Isn't this crime a little small?"
Pei Yan was stunned.
Giving people hats and convictions, and the people who were detained were either furious or frightened, this kind of scene, Pei Yan has seen a lot, but this reaction is the first time.
A little less guilty?
The crime of rebellion is already a capital crime, whether it is a full house of beheading, or Ling Chi's execution, it can be counted, if it is still a small crime, then it has to be the nine clans to give up?
Then I heard Li Xuandu say: "I am not a member of the Imperial Party, nor am I a member of the Qingyang Sect. My surname is Li, my name is Xuandu, and my name is Zifu. ”
Speaking of this, Li Xuandu took a few steps forward and continued: "I am a martial artist, I don't have a prominent family background like you, and I don't even know who my parents are. In this world, there are not many people who can make me admire, and the former Zhang Gong Suqing is one. ”
Speaking of this, Li Xuan stopped.
Fang 13 and Cao Jiande glanced at each other, and their hearts were shocked.
Zhang Suqing!
The former head of the cabinet and the head of the four ministers was deeply relied on by the first emperor and was known as the emperor's teacher. Zhao Zheng, the governor of Liaodong, Qin Daofang, the governor of Qizhou, Qin Xiang, the governor of Qinzhong, and others who once single-handedly promoted these feudal officials to call themselves "Mu Enmen", which can be said to be powerful in the world.
At that time, some people wrote poems praising it as "a pillar of the Great Wei Tian", which can be seen.
If it weren't for the fact that this Lord Shoufu wanted to implement the new policy, which touched the interests of too many noble clans and local squires, even if the Queen Mother and His Royal Highness King Jin joined forces, I am afraid it would be difficult to bring down this Lord Shoufu.
"So you don't need to say that I colluded with the Qingyang Sect demons, I don't care about being in the company of these people. Li Xuandu suddenly raised his voice: "I am Zhang Xiangye's disciple, Guogong Mansion, Qingluanwei, Si Celebrant Supervisor, when Tianbao was in the second year, I don't know how many of you were killed." ”
"The reason why I want to tell you this is to make you understand that the clan, officials, eunuchs, relatives, and nobles are greedy for tens of millions of dollars a year, annexing fields, and none of them pay taxes, so that a country's taxes can only be pressed on the heads of the small people in Shengdou. Now you don't want to relieve the disaster and quell the chaos, what kind of imperial party are you still entangled here, do you think you deserve to die?"
Pei Yan frowned, he was not a gentleman who did not learn and did not know how to do it, as the future head of the Pei family, he naturally knew what was going on in the current court, and it was irrefutable at this time.
Cao Jiande, as the son of Yan Guogong, couldn't listen to this kind of words, and couldn't help but speak: "My ancestors followed Emperor Taizu from birth to death, made contributions to the country, and won his wife and son with meritorious deeds, how can he not be rich and noble?"
Li Xuandu pointed to Cao Jiande's heart: "No one doesn't want you to enjoy wealth, your title is proof, the key is that the word 'greed' is already rich and honorable, but it is more than that, not only for the people, but also for the country." ”
Cao Jiande was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "There is some truth, if His Majesty the Emperor said this when he reprimanded the ministers in the court, it would naturally be the most righteous and righteous reason, but you are a martial artist in the rivers and lakes, and you are also worthy of talking about these big words?"
Li Xuandu no longer paid attention to him.
Some people do not distinguish between right and wrong, but pretend to be confused, so no matter how much they say, it is useless.
The next moment, Li Xuandu took a step forward without warning.
Fang Shisan sensed that something was wrong and was about to make a move, but he only felt that the wind was on the surface, and the wind was like a sword blade, so he had to protect himself first. By the time he swept away those sword winds, Li Xuandu had already reached out and grabbed Le Cao Jiande's throat.
This time, Li Xuandu no longer kept his hands, and directly shot "Wind and Clouds" and "Wind and Thunder Clouds", and caught Cao Jiande, who was not in the innate realm.
However, Li Xuandu's eyes were on the white-haired old man.
The white-haired old man's name is Huyan Shengming, and now he is already in his prime, he is a well-known martial arts master in Qizhou, known as the "Eagle King", and was once regarded as a top master who can block the sword of the Zifu Sword Immortal with both hands, but when the Jiangbei heroes besieged the Zifu Sword Immortal, this "Eagle King" did not make a move because he had become a member of the Pei family. It is said that Huyan Shengming once single-handedly blocked the siege of three masters of the True Realm, and killed two people at the cost of his own serious injuries, only one of them escaped by chance, and he did not dare to mention revenge. However, Huyan Shengming also hurt his roots because of this reason, and it was difficult for him to set foot in the realm of heaven and man in this life.
For Li Xuandu, this is the great enemy.
Cao Jiande turned his qi a little, and found that he was powerless to struggle at all, so he said inwardly: "You really want to be enemies with Qingluanwei and Yanguo Mansion?"
Li Xuandu said softly: "Look, it's here again." I have just said, this crime is a little smaller, Qingluanwei is no longer the Qingluanwei of the past, can't scare people, walking the rivers and lakes, used to fighting, killing, life and death, let's not play false, let's have something hard, okay?"
After saying that, Li Xuandu's hand increased his strength slightly, and Cao Jiande was suddenly suffocated, unable to speak, and at the same time, cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
Although Li Xuandu was talking to Cao Jiande, his eyes were always on Huyan Shengming.
Hu Yan Shengming, who had never spoken, finally spoke: "Young man, since you are walking the rivers and lakes, you should understand a truth, you have to be forgiving and forgiving. ”
Although he and Cao Jiande are not all the way, but now after all, the two sides are joining forces, and it is always difficult to watch Cao Jiande being caught and indifferent.
After Hu Yan Shengming spoke, Fang Shisan, who had already planned to forcibly make a move, breathed a sigh of relief and was relieved.
Li Xuandu injected a wisp of sword intent into Cao Jiande's body with a "subtle fate", and then threw it away.
Cao Jiande fell to the ground heavily, his face was flushed because of suffocation, and after coughing violently a few times, he said with a hideous expression: "Today's humiliation, I will repay it in the future, I will kill everyone related to you, especially the people you care about, without leaving one." I do what I say. ”
Li Xuandu smiled and said: "It's really a big breath, even if you go to kill, you can kill, count your ability." ”
Then the next moment, Li Xuandu kicked out, and Cao Jiande's whole person flew out directly, crashed into a pile of wine jars, rolled his eyes, and fainted on the spot.
