Li Jiancheng said resignedly: "That's right, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Officials are too strict. The so-called relationship is born from the heart, and the ugly face is the dirty heart. Such a pickled face was also put in, is there still a royal law? Are there any rules?" Since Li Jiancheng became the crown prince, the most important job is to figure out Li Yuan's heart and act as Li Yuan's tail system.

Li Shimin accosted on the side: "Father, the so-called hero doesn't ask where he comes from, since this Zhong Kui can come here through layers of selection, he should have some strategy in his chest, so it's better to ask him first before making a decision." ”

Li Yuan twisted his beard and said: "The words of the people of the world are not unreasonable, that person named Zhong Kui, I would like to ask you, what strategy do you have to help me dominate the world in this current situation?"

Zhong Kui raised his head and replied like Hong Zhong: "Your Majesty Taiyuan raised troops, and after a hundred battles to get Chang'an, there are 800 miles of Guanzhong Plain inside, and there are four dangerous checkpoints outside, which is the capital of the emperor." At that time, it was time to give the people a break from the internal situation, and gradually encroach on the foreign distant and close attacks, and in time, the world would be at your fingertips. ”

Li Yuan smiled noncommittally, looked back at Li Jiancheng and asked, "Jiancheng, what do you think of this move." ”

Li Jiancheng said: "This Zhong Kui's words make some sense at first hearing, but when you taste it carefully, it is nothing more than the scholar's empty words of misunderstanding the country. ”

Li Yuan said in surprise: "Oh, how do you say this?"

Li Jiancheng said: "Back then, Qin Shi Huang swept Liuhe according to Guanzhong, relying on the household Qi people, the ninth-class military industrial system. Now is a troubled time, that is, we should follow the example of Qin Shi Huang and bind every citizen and every grain under his rule to the chariot of my Datang, so as to form the strongest combat effectiveness. All the heroes of the world are fighting hard and resting with the people? Hmph, isn't it a nerd's idiot dream. ”

Li Shimin received on the side: "Brother's words are wrong, the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world." Shimin I have been fighting for many years, and I also know the truth of plundering the land and attacking the heart, I think this move has a long-term view. ”

Li Jiancheng snorted coldly and said: "The second brother's battle between Xiliang and Shanxi is very beautiful, but do you know how every grain and every feather arrow on your front line was obtained? ”

Zhong Kui suddenly interjected: "Your Majesty the Prince, Qin Shi Huang Li II died, and the people's hearts are very important." Now in this Chang'an City, Pei Lin is pampered and arrogant, and he deceives and hides from the fish and meat towns. Every time a bucket of wheat is obtained on the front line, ten quintals of grain will be levied in the Guanzhong area, and officials at all levels will be deducted at all levels, so that the officials will inevitably force the people. Prince Li Shentong will inevitably plunder every city conquered in Hebei, and the people of Hebei regard Dou Jiande as a relative and regard Li Tang as a thief. Your Majesty King Tang, the example of the fall of your cousin Yang Guang is right in front of you. ”

"Enough. Li Yuan slapped the dragon chair heavily, pointed at Zhong Kui in front of him with trembling fingers and said, "Since I started the army in Taiyuan, I haven't been walking on thin ice one day. You, a pickled farmer, actually compare me with Yang Guang, who killed his father and usurped the throne, and you are too deceitful. Left and right, insert him for me, and never use it. ”

"Hahahaha" Zhong Kui raised his head and laughed, and said: "Your Majesty is a farmer in a field, and it is not that you dislike me Zhong Kui for his pickled face and loss of royal dignity. Now, Zhong Kui doesn't work hard for His Majesty, and I will go by myself. ”

As he spoke, Zhong Kui directly lowered his head and slammed into the pillar next to him.

Long Xiaomo had been awakened by Zhong Kui's thunderous voice just now, and the court's answer was like listening to a book from heaven to him. I only heard everyone's tone suddenly impassioned, suddenly filled with righteous indignation, I didn't know what they said at all, and then I saw Zhong Kui with his head down, and he hit the pillar directly, I damn it, this Zhong Kui is not only a long personality, but also a characteristic.

The good thing is that Long Xiaomo's motor nerves are much faster than his brain, so he grabbed the hem of Zhong Kui's clothes from behind and said, "Old Zhong, what are you doing, don't seek death." ”

Who knew that Zhong Kui ignored him at all, dragged Long Xiaomo forward like a wild bull, ran to the edge of the pillar in three or two steps, and hit the pillar of the main hall with one head, "poof", died on the spot, and Long Xiaomo was splashed with blood all over his face.

Long Xiaomo secretly snorted: "This good person can't be messy, a good guy can't be messy, I should have a bloody disaster recently." ”

The top of the main hall immediately became a mess, and a group of Xuanjia guards guarded the Li family's father and son. Li Yuanji, who had not spoken in the Li family's father and son, suddenly stood up and shouted loudly at this time in order to show his loyalty: "Guards, protect my father." ”

In fact, his voice was completely added to the painting, the palace guards in the early Tang Dynasty were all selected from the veterans, and they had a long-term experience of battle and tacit cooperation. Li Yuanji shouted out in this voice, but he seemed to be fuss and panicked.

"Huh?" A trace of doubt rose from Long Xiaomo's heart, although the third prince Li in front of him, although he was gorgeously dressed, he was far from the mysterious person he met that night. The mysterious man acted ruthlessly and decisively, obviously for many years. And the third prince Li in front of him is obviously a chick. To say that the sound can be imitated completely, but a person's behavior is a habit for many years. Did Fei Fei Long Xiaomo really look away?

But if you want to say no, who surnamed Li dares to wear golden helmets and golden armor in this Chang'an City? Long Xiaomo's mind suddenly became chaotic, and Long Xiaomo, who had been carefully preparing for the past few days, was like a deflated ball that lost its momentum.

"Look, how did this blood become so big?" Li Yuanji shouted loudly again at this time. Although the voice was loud, there was more panic in the voice, and Long Xiaomo's heart was even more disdainful.

Looking down, he found that the blood next to Zhong Kui's body had also flowed a little more. When an ordinary person dies, there is a maximum of one or two square blood stains on the ground. After a while, a large pool of blood flowed out around Zhong Kui's head, which was more than a dozen square meters.

"Where is Tiangang Zhenren, let's take a quick look. A sound like a bell came into everyone's eardrums, making everyone's hearts settled, the second prince Li Shimin spoke up, and everyone couldn't help but gather around him for a few points.

"The poor road is here. Yuan Tiangang walked out from behind the curtain with Li Chunfeng, walked to Zhong Kui's side, squatted on the ground, dipped his fingers in the blood and put it in front of his nose to smell it, and said: "Emperor Qiqi, this Zhong Kui is an outlier, his blood has a strange breath fluctuation, if Poor Dao is not mistaken, this person is the life of Jiuyang Zhigang." Therefore his blood is different from ordinary people. ”

Li Yuan felt very surprised and asked, "Then what is the harm of this person's blood?"

Yuan Tiangang said: "The blood of Jiuyang Zhigang carries supreme righteousness, and there is no harm in it, but whether this strange blood will bring any aura fluctuations, Poor Dao cannot guarantee it, and it is better to ask Your Majesty to avoid it in the apse." ”

"Where are the four guards of Xuanjia. Li Shimin scolded loudly.

"Your Majesty is here. On the side of the main hall, four Xuanjia warriors, three men and one woman, each holding different weapons, protected the Li family father and son in the middle, and slowly withdrew to the apse.

The top of the "Sisisi" Taiji Hall suddenly heard a strange sound of swaying and soo. The crowd looked up, but saw nothing.

Long Xiaomo was too familiar with such a voice, and pointed to it and said, "Over there, behind the top beam, that's the Nine Yin Female Ghost." ”

At this time, everyone was able to follow Long Xiaomo's fingers to see that on the top beam of the Taiji Palace, there were many shadows of female ghosts hiding in dodge, and when they counted carefully, there were more than a dozen.

It stands to reason that ghosts are gathered by yin energy, and the female ghost of the nine yin is the best of yin energy, and should not appear in this early morning. But this Tai Chi hall is too thick, blocking most of the sunlight, so the female ghosts of the Nine Yin can barely maintain their figure among the beams, but they are cowering, and they don't feel arrogant at night.

Yuan Tiangang pulled out the sun from behind and pointed at those Nine Yin female ghosts and said: "Bold and charming, Qiankun Langlang dares to show himself in the palace, hurry up and recruit from the truth, who is the instigator, if not, see that the poor road will make your soul scattered." ”

Yuan Tiangang's words carried supreme righteousness, but the Nine Yin female ghosts on the beam didn't take Yuan Tiangang in their eyes at all, they just stared at the blood on the ground tightly, and their eyes showed excitement.

Several Nine Yin female ghosts kept chanting in their mouths: "The blood of the Nine Yang Zhigang, the blood of the Nine Yang Zhigang, I want to drink it, I want to drink it so much." ”

Yuan Tiangang suddenly shouted to Li Chunfeng next to him: "Oh no, these Nine Yin female ghosts want to combine the Qi of Nine Yang. They must not be combined, otherwise strong aura fluctuations will occur. You are protecting the Dharma next to you, and you can't miss one. ”

"Obey the law. Li Chunfeng responded in a childish voice.

One of the Nine Yin Female Ghosts screaming loudly above finally shouted, "I can't stand it anymore." As he spoke, he roared and flew towards Zhong Kui's blood.

"Taishang Laojun is as anxious as a law. Yuan Tiangang silently recited the mantra in his mouth, his palms were flat upward, and a pattern of Tai Chi Yin and Yang Fish was formed in mid-air.
