The voice spread far away, and Li Mang, who was still sleeping with the concubine in the harem at this time, was also woken up by Wang Zhongtian's roar.

"Who's arguing outside?" Li Mang called a eunuch and asked with a frown.

The eunuch knelt in front of Li Mang, full of respect: "Back to the saint, it was Wang Zhongtian, who was dismissed as prime minister by you, who knelt all the way into the palace from outside the palace, and is still kneeling in front of the Xilong Palace. ”

"Wang Zhongtian, aren't I in addition to his status as prime minister, why do you still let him into the palace?"

Li Mang stood up, waved his hand and said, "That's it, let people throw him out directly!"

After the eunuch got Li Mang's order, he took people to the Xilong Palace, and hurried back after a while.

"Qi Qi Sheng, Wang Zhongtian said that he must see you, otherwise, he will never leave. ”

"Hmph! What does this old thing really think of himself? I didn't want his life before, it was already for the sake of his three dynasty elders! Let's go, go and see what he wants to do!" Li Mang was furious, put on a dragon robe, left the harem, and rushed in the direction of the Xilong Palace.

"Old minister Wang Zhongtian, please see the saint!" Wang Zhongtian's voice was hoarse at this time, but he still insisted on shouting, and at this time, he saw Li Mang coming from not far away.

"Old minister Wang Zhongtian, meet the saint!" Wang Zhongtian turned around and knelt down in the direction of Li Mang, and the ground was already full of blood at this time.

Wang Zhongtian endured severe pain, hoarse voice, and struggled to say: "Holy Lord, if you encounter troubled times today, the dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, and the old ministers are brave, please come to the court as soon as possible, don't indulge in wine!"

Li Mang squinted at Wang Zhongtian on the ground, and shouted coldly: "Wang Zhongtian, you have repeatedly provoked my majesty, what do you want to do!

"Saint, the world is declining, thieves are everywhere, there are Li Muyuan in the north, there are major vassal kings in the south, if you are still so obsessed, my Tianxi Dynasty will be handed over to others for hundreds of years!

Wang Zhongtian knelt on the ground, his cloak spreading, and old tears were all over the place.

But Li Mang didn't think much about it at all, just stretched out his right hand and pointed at Wang Zhongtian's head, and scolded: "I rule all the nations, the sea is subordinate, and the princes of the world, where is it so unbearable as you said? The dynasty has been inherited for hundreds of years, and in my hands, I have my own score in my heart, why did you come to slander me so many times? Someone came, pulled Wang Zhongtian down, put him in a prison, and beheaded him at three o'clock at noon tomorrow! Send someone to punish his nine clans, destroy the family and confiscate the family, and spread my will, if there are any more courtiers like Wang Zhongtian in the future, I will not be spared!"

After Li Mang finished speaking, he waved his sleeves angrily, turned around and walked back towards the harem.

"Holy Lord, the old minister is loyal to the country, there is no selfishness, if you are the king of the scholar business, Qin II, in the future, my Tianxi Dynasty will definitely be ruined......, strip away people's hearts, decay and perish!

But Li Mang didn't look back at all, there were two guards next to him, dragging Wang Zhongtian's body, and walked towards the prison.

Pity this Wang Zhongtian who was loyal to his liver and courage, but he was imprisoned, and he couldn't tell Li Mang's intentions, and he ended up in such a miserable scene.

The next day, outside the imperial palace, at noon, a guard had already brought Wang Zhongtian in the dungeon and knelt on the beheading platform.

Wang Zhongtian was dressed in a white prison uniform, his hair was scattered, his body was stained with blood, and his hands were trembling. At this time, the supervisor had already asked Wang Zhongtian to be pressed under the guillotine, waiting for the arrival of three o'clock in the afternoon.

There were crowds of people all around, most of them were the people in the imperial capital, these people usually asked about the loyalty of Prime Minister Wang Zhongtian, and when they saw him being pressed under the guillotine, everyone was full of resentment, but no one dared to stop him.

Because Li Mang has already passed the word, if anyone dares to stop it, it will definitely be destroyed!

"Prime Minister, why are you doing this?" In the crowd, someone suddenly said such a sentence, and then knelt down, and the crowd of people around him also learned from that person to kneel, and everyone had tears in their eyes.

Wang Zhongtian knelt on the beheading platform, couldn't help but burst into tears, and said with grief and resentment: "The old minister Wang Zhongtian is loyal to the saint and my court, and he only hates the saint for being stubborn, learning the things of the faint king, abandoning the court, and greedy for wine, and now my Tianxi Dynasty is in danger, heavens, I beg you to open the eyes of the saint! If this continues, in the future, I will go to tens of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and I will definitely lose my souls!"

"Prime Minister ......" At this time, a person suddenly broke through the crowd, and that person was Zhou Yong, the household servant who was an official in the same dynasty as Wang Zhongtian.

Seeing Zhou Yong coming over, Wang Zhongtian had no choice but to shake his head helplessly and smile bitterly.

"Prime Minister, I'll go to the Ming Sage now, and I will definitely be able to rescue you!" Zhou Yong finished speaking, turned around and walked towards the palace, but Wang Zhongtian stopped him.

"Lord Zhou, there is no need, the Holy One is now drunk on wine, how can he care about our admonitions? Pity our centuries-old dynasty foundation, and now it will be destroyed in the hands of the Holy One! After the death of my Wang Zhongtian, what face will I have to see the first emperor of the Liedai!"

At this time, the prison officer shouted in front of the case: "It's three o'clock in the afternoon, and the execution will be carried out!"

As soon as the words fell, the executioner took a big knife, took a mouthful of wine in his mouth, sprayed it on the knife, and prepared to cut off Wang Zhongtian's head.

At this time, Wang Zhongtian burst into tears and shouted loudly: "The Dragon Palace of the Ancient Rivers and Mountains, the Hundred Years of Foundation and the Ministers." The saint abandoned the court in a daze, and thought in his heart all day long. Pity the former emperor Mingjun, the Son of Heaven can hardly distinguish between evil and good. If Li Mang wakes up one day, even if the old minister dies, he will have no regrets!"

"Holy Lord, open your eyes!"

After saying this, the executioner had already gritted his teeth and swung his knife and cut off Wang Zhongtian's head, and the ground was covered with blood. The human head rumbled around several times, and finally stopped at the feet of the executioner, face up, Wang Zhongtian's eyes were bloodshot, staring at him coldly.

Frightened, the executioner hurriedly threw down the big knife in his hand and ran away in disgrace.

"Prime Minister!" Zhou Yong, the household servant, knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes, looked at Wang Zhongtian's corpse, and cried loudly.

Suddenly, the nearly 1,000 onlookers around also knelt on the ground, howling and crying, and the entire imperial capital was full of crying.

This Wang Zhongtian was loyal to the country, and wholeheartedly persuaded the saint to return to the court and stay away from the wine, but in the end, he ended up in such a situation, and the people of the imperial capital were not only tens of thousands......?

Since then, the imperial capital has fallen into an unprecedented crisis.

Li Changfeng walked in a chic manner, but he suffered from the two invigilators in Hanzhou City, and the two of them wondered why the white-clothed Xiucai shook his head and sighed, threw away the paper and pen, and left, when the two of them saw a few lines of big characters on the wooden case scroll, they almost lost their souls!

This is a rebellion!

Surprised, the Taishou of Hanzhou City hurriedly got up, took the few lines of poems left by the white-clothed Xiu, didn't care about anything, asked his subordinates for a horse, and hurried towards the imperial capital.

Two days later, the roll of paper left by Li Changfeng suddenly appeared in the hands of Li Mang, the current saint, and after Li Mang read it, his face changed greatly, and he was furious!

originally wanted to be an official to help the prime minister, but the saint destroyed the court.

The mountains and rivers are 30,000 miles high, and a dry pen writes frenzy.

The rivers and lakes are still the same, and they are left to decay and stand beside them.

Since then, regardless of the affairs of the dynasty, Li Mang has also been loyal!

"Bold! Who wrote this? I will not spare such disobedient words!"

Hanzhou City Taishou knelt in front of Li Mang, trembling and said: "Back to the Holy Place, two days ago the imperial examination will be examined, in the examination hall, a white-clothed Xiu made this poem, and then drifted away, Weichen was puzzled at the time, and after reading it, he was shocked, so he quickly came to the imperial capital and presented it to the Holy Lord. ”

Li Mang angrily tore the paper into shreds, and said angrily: "Spread my will, all the states and cities of my Tianxi Dynasty will post an example to arrest this thief! And you, quickly send someone to find out, who is this white-clothed showman, dare to write such a big rebellious statement, I will destroy him all over the house!" Ling Chi will be executed!"

"Wechen took the order. ”

As a result, the six counties, nineteen states, fifty-eight cities, and one hundred and seven ya, all of which belonged to the Tianxi Dynasty, posted the list text, and the saint was furious and died, if he couldn't catch the white-clothed talent, all the officials of the state, ya, county, and city would have to suffer!

Good guy, the name of the white-clothed Xiucai has spread throughout the world, and within three days, both the children of the official family and the people in the market have heard of the character of "white-clothed Xiucai". Of course, what they listened to more was the seven-character quatrain.

At this time, the so-called "white-clothed Xiucai" was also Li Changfeng, carrying a rusty long sword, walking along Hanzhou City all the way to the north, like a headless fly.

He didn't know that because of his few words, the entire Cullinan Dynasty was shaken.

"Bitter, miserable, hateful, sighing. The world is so big, why is there no place for me Li Changfeng to live? Hate only hates this today's holy heaven is extremely mediocre, the court is in chaos, the world is homeless, and the four seas are in turmoil......" Li Changfeng sighed, looked at the big iron piece in his hand, and didn't know where to go.

Since bidding farewell to Hanzhou City two days ago, Li Changfeng has long been penniless, and he has exchanged all his body for a broken sword and this coarse cloth robe, and nothing else.

Looking back on the bitter life of these years, more than ten years of hard study, I thought that I could be a high school jinshi and serve the court, and since then I have glorified the lintel and displayed my ambitions. But I never thought that in the end, I found that today's saint is so mediocre, not only indulging in wine, abandoning state affairs, but also killing Zhongliang, and making the society that was already about to be shattered into what it is now.

"This Tianxi Dynasty has been passed on to this day, has been more than 700 years, since Gaozu waved the Central Plains, swept the countries of the beginning, a full 600 years of wind and rain peace, the people returned to the heart, who had thought of this hundred years, first Yishan King Li Ye rebelled, and many vassal kings fought against each other, the whole dynasty fell into the era of war and chaos. In the final analysis, the reason for all this is because of the decay and decline of the court, even if there was no King Yishan who rose up a hundred years ago, there would be other people ......"

Li Changfeng stood in place, his long hair dancing with the breeze, and muttered: "In this case, how can this decadent and declining dynasty survive in the world forever?

Thinking of this, I saw a fine light flash in Li Changfeng's eyes, and he looked up into the distance with a determined expression, clenched the rusty long sword in his hand, took a step, and continued to walk towards the north.

There is a city two hundred miles north of Hanzhou City, called Beihanzhou, with a radius of more than 100 miles, which can be regarded as one of the largest state cities in the dynasty. After Li Changfeng left Hanzhou City two days ago, he went all the way to the north, took the trail and walked forward, eating some wild fruits when he was hungry, drinking some river water when he was thirsty, thinking that after passing the Northern Hanzhou, and then traveling north for half a month, he could reach the junction of the northern soil and the southern soil.

At that time, he joined the army and reported to Li Muyuan's subordinates, and brought tens of thousands of fellow soldiers to destroy the decaying and declining Tianxi Dynasty.

Because he was on a small road, Li Muyuan passed by the officers and soldiers who came and went to check many times along the way, and the patrol officers and soldiers never noticed him at all. He didn't know that because of his little poem, Li Mang was furious, and now the people of the entire dynasty were chasing him.

A day later, Li Changfeng was already dizzy from hunger, and finally came to Beihan Prefecture.

Standing outside the city, looking at the three big characters on the city wall, Li Changfeng smiled bitterly, straightened his clothes, and walked towards the city with the flow of people.

Because entering and leaving the city requires strict checks, there is already a long line of people outside the city of Beihanzhou, and Li Changfeng is among them.

As the procession into the city gradually moved forward, there were only two people left in front of Li Changfeng, and it was at this time that he suddenly caught a glimpse of a portrait in the hands of the soldier guarding the city.

"This man is so familiar, as dignified and graceful as me...... Huh, isn't this me?" Li Changfeng was shocked, the portrait in the hands of the soldiers guarding the city turned out to be him!

What's going on? When did I commit a crime? Why did these people take my portrait to check people? In an instant, many questions flashed through Li Changfeng's mind.

But he is not a fool, knowing that this group of people are arresting him, is it possible that he still rushes up and says, where am I here, come to arrest me?

Therefore, Li Changfeng quickly left the crowd, messed up his hair, and walked towards the distance with his cloak scattered.

But at this moment, the defender of the city noticed him.

"That kid, that means you, come here!"

Li Changfeng stopped, constantly thinking about how to deal with it in his heart, but he thought of it in the end, he came up with such an idea, thirty-six plans, run!

Therefore, Li Changfeng didn't care about anything, and the girl ran in the direction away from the Northern Cold Prefecture, and the original soldier who defended the city saw it, and suddenly came to the spirit, if this person was okay, how could he run wildly?

"Grandma's, catch him!"

With the order of the soldier guarding the city, more than a dozen officers and soldiers standing at the gate of Beihanzhou City rushed towards Li Changfeng like a wild cat catching a mouse.

Li Changfeng didn't run far before he was caught up, no wonder he hadn't eaten properly for several days, his stomach kept screaming, he didn't have any strength to get around, it was strange that he could escape!

"You kid run, aren't you quite able to run!" The soldier guarding the city glared at Li Changfeng, his face full of anger.

And when he compared the portrait in his hand with Li Changfeng, he found that the "white-clothed talent" they had been tracking down for the past few days was really the person in front of him!

"Yo, we finally got caught, you kid is really crazy, when our brothers all grew up eating grass? ”

Li Changfeng thought to himself, now that he can't escape anyway, it's better to figure out why he is wanted.

"Why do you want me? I didn't commit any crimes, did I?"

The soldiers defending the city suddenly burst into laughter, and looked at Li Changfeng with a smile: "Boy, if you haven't committed any crimes, what are the brothers doing here?" Hehe, now your name of 'white-clothed talent' is the only one in the world, in the past few days, everyone in the entire dynasty has been talking about you, you say you don't know?"

Li Changfeng looked at him suspiciously, but did not speak.

"Since your kid has been caught by a few brothers, why don't you tell you directly, I guess you still remember the imperial examination of the Hanzhou City Council a few days ago, right?"

Li Changfeng nodded slowly: "But what does that have to do with you arresting me? I didn't kill anyone, I didn't set fire, I sat upright, why did you arrest me?"

"Just because of the seven-word quatrain you wrote, the invigilator was shocked after reading it, and quickly sent it to the saint, and the saint was even more furious after reading it, so that everyone in the world hunted you down, and anyone who caught it could be rewarded with a reward of ten thousand taels, you are now a fragrant bait, there is no one in the world who can be more famous than you!"

"Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about him? Now that the brothers have caught him, of course they will send him to the government to receive the reward!" a person next to him hurriedly urged.

As a result, this "white-clothed talent" was escorted by the officers and soldiers to the government of Beihan Prefecture, and the original coarse cloth robe was also replaced with a white prison uniform, and his hands and feet were chained with thick iron chains, and he was imprisoned.

The prison in the palace was eerie, sunless, damp, and full of the smell of decay. Li Changfeng sat on the straw mat, looked at the two big iron chains on his hands and feet, and laughed at himself: "I, Li Changfeng, have been in decline, and I never thought that in the end, I would be famous all over the world for a poem, although I was convicted of disobedience, but we are well known to everyone." ”

At this time, Li Changfeng remembered his empty stomach, and couldn't help but stand up, slammed in front of the cell door and shouted: "Cell boss, cell boss, can you get some food?"

After shouting for a long time, there was only the lingering sound that kept surrounding, and the few jailers who had escorted him in before didn't know if they heard it, and no one cared about him anyway.

Li Changfeng sighed and mourned: "I don't know if I can get rid of this crime, when will I, Li Changfeng, get out!"

"Hehe, go out, enter this prison, there are a lot of people who want to get out, but none of them really go out, you still have to wait for the day when you 'return to your hometown'!" At this time, these words suddenly came from the cell next to him.
