The white-robed man laughed and said, "Li Baihu is serious." The head of the family has been waiting for a long time, so let's enter the temple. ”

Li Qiufeng bowed down and said, "Your Excellency, please first." ”

The white-robed man didn't push, and he walked up the white jade steps first, and then walked towards the main hall. Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan walked behind, walking with their heads down, not even daring to make a sound. I saw soldiers in bright armor on both sides of the white jade steps, holding guns and knives in their hands, which made people shudder.

When you reach the top of the stairs, you will be in front of the main hall. I saw that this hall is more than ten zhang high, carved beams and painted buildings, golden and brilliant, indescribable majestic and solemn. Every few steps in front of the door of the palace, there was a brocade guard wearing a flying fish suit and an embroidered spring knife hanging from his waist.

At this time, a person walked out of the hall quickly, and it was the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard, who made Yun Feiyang. After he saw the white-robed man, he knelt down on one knee and said, "Commander Qiqi, the officials have arrived, please enter the hall." ”

Li Qiufeng was very respectful to this white-robed man when he saw Yun Feiyang, and he was quite surprised in his heart. secretly thought that Yun Feiyang's whereabouts in the Jinyi Guard were strange, although he had been on an errand in the Jinyi Guard for five years, he had only seen this person four or five times. Every time they met, Yun Feiyang looked like a big man, even when he saw the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Yang Zhenzhong, he just arched his hands, and he had never seen him bow so much.

But seeing the white-robed man's right hand raised, he motioned for Yun Feiyang to get up, and then said, "This is very good." I bring you an old man, and the two of you will work together to be faithful to the Lord. ”

Yun Feiyang glanced at Li Qiufeng, smiled slightly, and said to the white-robed man: "Li Baihu is young and promising, Yun admires it." ”

The white-robed man turned back to Li Qiufeng and said, "Li Baihu, Miss Murong, just follow me into the palace." ”

Li Qiufeng bowed his hand to Yun Feiyang, and Yun Feiyang made a gesture of inviting in. At the moment when the two of them staggered, Li Qiufeng's heart moved: "Why is Yun Feiyang so young? It stands to reason that he is nearly forty years old, why does he look like a young man in his twenties today?"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Yun Feiyang. At this time, the two had already passed by, and Yun Feiyang had fallen behind Li Qiufeng, so Li Qiufeng had to turn his head to look behind him, but he saw that it was pitch black behind him, where was Yun Feiyang's shadow?

Li Qiufeng was shocked, and was about to speak, when Murong Danyan pulled his sleeve next to him, and said in a low voice: "The noble person is in front of you, Brother Li must not be rude!"

Li Qiufeng was startled, his mind became chaotic again, and he thought: "Miss Murong reminded me well, I must not be rude, so as not to surprise the noble." He didn't dare to look behind him anymore, and saw that the white-robed man had already walked into the hall with the lotus lantern in his left hand, and hurriedly walked in with Murong Danyan.

I saw that there were three rows of tables and chairs in the hall, full of officials wearing red official uniforms. In the middle of the main hall, there was no emperor's throne, but a platform was built, and a lotus lamp was placed around the platform that was exactly the same as that in the hands of the white-robed man.

Li Qiufeng saw that several of the officials of the six departments were very familiar, but after thinking about it carefully, he forgot his name, and he was secretly suspicious in his heart.

The white-robed man brought Li Qiufeng to the rightmost table in the first row, and said to Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan, "The two of you are seated here." ”

Li Qiufeng bowed down and said: "My lord, the lower officials are only the hundred households of the brocade guards, and all the adults here are the chief officials of the six departments, and the lower officials dare not compare with the adults." ”

The white-robed man smiled and said, "Lord Li is serious. As long as Master Li understands current affairs, it is an official position of the first and second grades, and for Lord Li, it is just a foot of water and a leap. ”

Li Qiufeng didn't dare to say any more, so he sat down. Murong Danyan saw that the officials around him were all fifty or sixty years old, all of them had solemn expressions, they were not angry and arrogant, they were happy in their hearts, and said to Li Qiufeng in a low voice: "These are all members of the imperial court, we can sit at the same table with them, this face is really rare." ”

Li Qiufeng glanced around, and was making eye contact with a red-robed official, his heart was shocked, he hurriedly stood up, walked quickly to the official, bowed and said, "Master Hu, I didn't expect you to enter the palace today." ”

Master Hu smiled slightly and said, "The old man never imagined that he would be able to come to this hall again." Since the old man was convicted by the Son of Heaven, he never thought that he would be able to see the face of heaven again, and when he came here today, it was like a world away. ”

Li Qiufeng said: "My lord is a pillar of the imperial court, although he is convicted for a while, he will eventually come to Jitai." ”

Master Hu stroked his long beard with his hand and said, "Lord Li is right. In the future, I will be an official in the same dynasty as Lord Li, and I ask you to take care of me. ”

Li Qiufeng hurriedly bowed down and said, "This can kill the lower officials." Master Hu is a cabinet scholar, and there is a difference of 108,000 miles between the lower officials and the adults, so how can we talk about the word 'care'?"

Master Hu shook his head and said, "Lord Li is young and promising, and he is a good age to contribute to the Son of Heaven. Today, you only need to swear allegiance to the Son of Heaven, and sooner or later you will sit in the position of a scholar. ”

Li Qiufeng waved his hand again and again: "Don't dare, don't dare, Lord Hu is serious." ”

At this moment, I saw a white-haired eunuch suddenly appear on the platform in the hall. I saw that the eunuch looked around, and then said sharply: "All the officials are here, and the master invites all the adults to watch the play." ”

But he saw the white-robed man walking to the stage with a lotus lantern in his left hand, and said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great grace for the master to invite you to watch the play today. Everyone must remember the kindness of the master, if you forget the righteousness of the Lord and turn your back on the Lord for glory, then you will fall into the hell of Abi, and you will never be able to turn over. ”

At this time, Li Qiufeng had already said goodbye to Master Hu and walked back to his seat quickly. Murong Danyan asked in a low voice, "Brother Li, who is that person you went to see?"

Li Qiufeng said: "That is Lord Hu, an official who worships the scholar of Wuyingdian University, and is the emperor's most relied on cabinet chief. It's just that the year before last, he advocated raising troops in Hetao, but the result was a mistake in employing people, and the commander of the army hesitated at the opportunity, and was taken by the enemy, losing his division and losing his land, and the emperor was furious, and put Hu Daren in prison, and soon asked about the death penalty. ”

Murong Danyan sighed and said, "Brother Li is an official in the same dynasty as these people, and he will have to take care of each other in the future." ”

Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "What Miss Murong said is good. Lord Hu was too conceited that day, and he offended the court officials cleanly, because when he was convicted, none of the several scholars in the cabinet stood up to speak for him. The protégés of these people took the opportunity to attack in groups, and the emperor did not want to kill him, but when he saw that all the officials could be killed, he finally asked about the capital crime. is above the officialdom, and the phrase 'the party is the same and different' is the golden rule for promotion and life. ”

While the two were talking in a low voice, acting had already begun on stage. Li Qiufeng looked up, only to see a person dressed as the Son of Heaven, and was drinking with several ministers, and after the feast, several ministers withdrew from the palace, but gathered together to discuss something secretly. Then the characters on the stage suddenly changed, Tianzi had changed into a set of ordinary clothes, took a few servants to play in the mountains and rivers, and met a woman in white in a tavern.

When the woman in white appeared on the stage, Li Qiufeng and Murong Danyan were both shocked. This woman is the white-clothed woman who once captured Murong Danyan and Ma Dongqing. I saw that the woman in white and the son of heaven in Weifu were in love, and the two swore to the sky that they would not fail each other.

Seeing this, Murong Danyan looked at Li Qiufeng stupidly, and said in a low voice: "Brother Li, will you treat me like this forever?"

Li Qiufeng said: "This is natural. I want to keep her safe for the rest of her life!"

Murong Danyan slowly leaned his head on Li Qiufeng's body, and his heart was filled with joy for a while.

At this time, the situation on the stage changed again, and I saw that the ministers were secretly discussing, and then a prince wearing a yellow robe and a golden crown appeared. Several ministers knelt in front of the prince and swore to the sky, and the prince looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. Immediately, a black cloud drifted by, and these people disappeared with the black cloud. On the stage, there was the micro-service Son of Heaven and the white-clothed woman, the two seemed to be about to separate, the white-clothed woman begged bitterly, and the micro-costume Son of Heaven was also reluctant, so at this time, two ministers who were secretly discussing with the prince came forward and persuaded the Son of Micro-service to leave. After everyone left, one of the eunuchs pulled out the sharp blade hidden in his arms and stabbed the white-clothed woman to the ground.

Murong Danyan let out an "ah", his face was unbearable, and he turned his head to Li Qiufeng and said, "I didn't expect her to be so miserable, but I can't hate her......"

I saw a gust of wind blowing, and the eunuch and the white-clothed woman on the stage disappeared again, and the Son of Heaven and a white-haired eunuch sat on a small boat, as if they were enjoying the scenery. At this moment, several black-clothed people suddenly appeared under the boat, and they overturned the boat, and the Son of Heaven fell into the water. The white-haired eunuch raised his hand with several black-clothed men in celebration. Then the two ministers also appeared on the stage, and everyone's faces were extremely excited.
