Volume 1 Chang'an Chapter 72 Taking Office (3)
Li Ye took Li Chongde back to Chang'an Mansion, but it was just a cup of tea, so he let Li Chongde go back.
The dispute between Li Chongde and Li Yao in the Xiangling Pavilion, who is right and who is wrong, of course Li Ye will not care, and bringing Li Chongde back to Chang'an Mansion for questioning is just a formality.
Although Li Chongde's family background is ordinary, he is now only a small head who leads a hundred people, but Li Ye is still quite close to him in his words and deeds, and when Li Chongde left, Li Ye also personally sent it away.
Although Li Chongde himself is not very important, Li Ye can use him to get to know more generals of the Shence Army, and Li Chongde is a key chess piece for him to infiltrate the Shence Army.
It's not too early, after settling the dispute between Li Chongde and Li Yao, Li Ye plans to go home, as for how Li Yao will deal with it, Li Ye doesn't care, whether he is dead or alive will be handed over to the people below to watch.
Now, Li Ye doesn't need to look at Li Yao with his eyes, for Li Ye, Li Yao is just an ant.
However, just when Li Ye was about to go down, trouble came unexpectedly.
Wang Li hurriedly came to report: "Zhang Shaoyin went to the prison cell and wanted to take Li Yao's house away, his attitude was extremely arrogant, saying that we had arrested the wrong person, and claiming to find Shaoyin's theory!"
Zhang Shaoyin, that is, another Shaoyin of Chang'an Mansion, named Zhang Xingjian, is the younger brother of Xu Shaomu's wife of Fu Yin, in his thirties. In terms of qualifications, he was one level worse than Wang Li, a serious Jinshi, but in just six years, he went from a petty official to a four-grade master.
Of course, there are a few reasons for this, nepotism, in today's imperial officialdom, it can be said to be very popular.
"Go check it out. Li Ye frowned slightly.
When Li Ye and Wang Li rushed to the door of the cell, Zhang Xingjian was taking Li Yao out of the door, followed by a large group of officials and officials.
Li Yao still looked like he was going to die, but as soon as he saw Li Ye, his eyes immediately burst out with hatred, and he stared at him fiercely, eager to eat Li Ye.
Zhang Xingjian is in his prime, but his body has been fat, his waist is big and his belly is round, his face is full of oil, and everyone looks down on him, for fear that others will not know that he is in a high position, Li Ye only glanced at him, and gave birth to the first impression of the old oilman in the officialdom.
"Zhang Shaoyin, do you want to take my people?" Li Ye stood still in the courtyard, and when he asked this, his tone was naturally not good.
The dispute between Li Yao and Li Chongde is the first thing Li Ye dealt with after taking office, it is self-evident how important this is to Li Ye, Li Ye has not yet given a conclusion on this matter, Zhang Xingjian kept saying that Li Ye arrested the wrong person, and did not discuss with Li Ye, without Li Ye's consent, he released Li Yao without authorization, it can be said that he despised Li Ye to the extreme, and did not take into account the friendship of his colleagues at all, how big a blow to Li Ye's prestige was this matter, it is also obvious, if Li Ye really let Li Yao be let go by Zhang Xingjian, there will be no need to mix in Chang'an Mansion in the future, no one will take him in his eyesγ
Zhang Xingjian held his big belly, raised his chin and looked at Li Ye, and his arrogant expression was fully revealed: "Li Shaoyin, I have already asked about the matter of Xiangling Pavilion, it is Li Chongde who is picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and Yao Gongzi is not only not wrong, but he is also the victim party, and he should be let go home." β
Li Ye's eyes narrowed slightly: "Oh?"
Zhang Xingjian snorted coldly, righteous and awe-inspiring: "Li Shaoyin, this matter is obvious, but you don't ask about it, conniving at your subordinates to injure Yao Gongzi, and arresting him, and not punishing the culprit Li Chongde at all, so confusing black and white, how do outsiders think of my Chang'an Mansion, and how can the people of my Chang'an Mansion maintain order in Chang'an in the future, which is convincing?"
Speaking of this, Zhang Xingjian chuckled: "Li Shaoyin is young, and it is the first time he has taken office, he has no experience, and it is understandable that he is not thoughtful and discerning, but Li Shaoyin must remember clearly, and he needs to ask his colleagues for advice when dealing with affairs in the future, and he must not act recklessly again, and ruin the reputation and majesty of Chang'an Mansion!"
As he spoke, Zhang Xingjian waved his hand, but without waiting for Li Ye to say anything, he beckoned the people behind him: "Let's go! Send Yao Gongzi home!"
Through Zhang Xingjian's attitude, Li Ye has figured out that Zhang Xingjian is deliberately targeting him.
Zhang Xingjian is Xu Shaomu's person, so this matter was instigated by Xu Shaomu behind his back.
Looking up further, it is very likely that this matter was instructed by Wei Baoheng.
Of course, there is only one purpose, that is, to suppress Li Ye, let him retreat in the face of difficulties, and be an idler in Chang'an Mansion with peace of mind in the future.
So at the moment, Zhang Xingjian took a large group of officials and took Li Yao away in a grand manner, which was to declare sovereignty to Li Ye and tell Li Ye who was in charge in this Chang'an Mansion!
Li Ye stood in the courtyard, blocking everyone's way, and he didn't move half a step: "Zhang Shaoyin wants to take Li Yao away, has the official agreed?"
Zhang Xingjian was taking two steps, and his face sank when he heard this: "What does Li Shaoyin mean by this?"
Li Ye said: "The official's meaning is very clear. β
Zhang Xingjian sneered: "The official's meaning is also very clear! Yao Gongzi is not guilty and should not be imprisoned!"
Li Ye: "You don't count what you said about this." β
Zhang Xingjian laughed out loud, he looked Li Ye up and down, his eyes were full of contempt, as if he was looking at an ignorant stunned young man: "Li Shaoyin's first day in office, the first taste of being an official, I'm afraid that he is so complacent that he doesn't know his identity, right? To tell you honestly, in this Chang'an Mansion, there is no official who has said anything that doesn't count! If you know each other, retreat obediently, if you don't know how to advance or retreat like this, this official guarantees that you will not be able to move an inch in Chang'an Mansion!" This official does not hold you accountable for conniving at your subordinates, and does not ask about right and wrong, and hurts Yao Gongzi, which has already given you face, and you don't know what to do!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and with a group of people behind him, he was about to walk past Li Ye.
Wang Li stood behind Li Ye, feeling worried, he has served in Chang'an Mansion for many years, and he knows very well the depth of Chang'an Mansion, Zhang Xingjian represents Xu Shaomu, this is the consensus of Chang'an Mansion, for so many years, no one dares to disobey Zhang Xingjian.
Therefore, Wang Li knows even more that Li Ye is no longer treated by Xu Shaomu, but he is afraid that he will not have a good life in the future, today's affairs, if he swallows his anger, he can still be an idle young Yin in the future, if he clashes head-on with Zhang Xingjian, he is afraid that he will not be able to get along.
Wang Wei sighed, secretly thinking that Li Ye was afraid that he was going to retreat, after getting along for a day, he had seen Li Ye's treatment of people, Wang Li knew that Li Ye was not stunned, but as long as he was a little sensible, Li Ye would not tear his face with Zhang Xingjian.
"If you go one step further, I will let you know what regret is. Li Yeqian slanted Zhang Xingjian, and his words were clear and calm.
"Do you still dare to do anything to this official? You really ate the gall of a bear's heart and a leopard, and you don't know how thick the sky is! Let this official regret it? You also deserve it?" Zhang Xingjian was furious, he was originally a domineering person, and he was used to running rampant in Chang'an Mansion, where could he endure Li Ye's provocation, and immediately strode forward, pushed out a palm towards Li Ye, and moved his hand first: "Get out!"
Li Ye sneered in his heart, the people of officialdom pay attention to everything and do not fall into the hands of others, even if there is a conflict with each other, they are also oppressive with power, they really tear their faces, regardless of seeing each other in the future, they do things absolutely nothing, and there are very few people who shoot head-on.
Zhang Xingjian dared to do this, obviously he really didn't take Li Ye seriously.
Zhang Xingjian pushed it with one palm, the wind was fierce, and the branches and leaves of the locust trees in the courtyard were blown to a loud sound, and the officials who had cultivated to a low level behind him were even more unstable on their feet, and they were forced to retreat, and the aura in front of his hand condensed a huge palm that was more than a zhang high, and pressed down on Li Ye in front of him!
This Zhang Xingjian, although he acts aggressively and has no one in his eyes, but I have to say that his strength is strong, and the strength of the fourth layer of Qi cultivation is undoubtedly revealed at this moment, and it is also stronger than ordinary magicians in the same realm, and ordinary monks of the fourth layer of Qi training, if they do not retreat, under this palm, they will definitely be seriously injured!
Zhang Xingjian wanted this effect, and the corners of his mouth outlined a sneer.
His palm didn't fall quickly, in order to give Li Ye a chance to react and let Li Ye retreat.
In this way, Li Ye is not injured, and Zhang Xingjian will not fall into the hands of others.
On the other hand, as long as Li Ye retreats, it is tantamount to admitting defeat, so today's matter will have no face to continue to entangle.
Zhang Xingjian is very confident in his own strength, he firmly believes that Li Ye will retreat, under the palm of his full force, few monks in the same realm dare to confront it head-on.
Wang Li's face also changed drastically, and he secretly shouted badly, he didn't expect that Zhang Xingjian would actually make a move when he said it, and he showed no mercy! At this moment, he only hoped that Li Ye would quickly retreat!
When Zhang Xingjian's palm fell, Li Ye disappeared in place.
Wang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Li Ye was not hit after all, otherwise he would have been seriously injured, but at the same time he felt disappointed and lost, because after Li Ye was so suppressed by Zhang Xingjian, his prestige would be ruined, and his situation in Chang'an Mansion would be difficult in the future, and he would not have any benefits if he followed Li Ye, and he no longer had any hope for Li Ye in his heart.
The aura giant palm fell suddenly, the bluestone plate pieces shattered, and the smoke and dust flew everywhere, causing bursts of exclamations, Zhang Xingjian was extremely satisfied with this scene, he knew that Li Ye would retreat, and his shot caused exclamations, which also showed the recognition of others for him, the strength of this world is supreme, and his prestige in Chang'an Mansion has risen to a new level.
Zhang Xingjian looked at Li Ye.
His face suddenly turned pale.
There is no Li Ye on the left and right!
Where is Li Ye?
Is it possible that he just ran away? Yes, instead of staying here and embarrassing, it is better to leave early.
Zhang Xingjian was thinking like this, and his eyes widened suddenly.
Because he keenly caught that a figure had arrived in front of him.
Without waiting for Zhang Xingjian to react, and without even giving him time to think, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his lower abdomen!
That's the pain of being bombarded with fists!
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Xingjian felt that his body became lighter, and he flew directly!
Then he saw clearly, Li Ye was standing in the position he was standing, unharmed!
How is this possible?
How could he be so fast!
While dodging his own palm, he also launched a counterattack against himself?!
How dare he make a move on himself?!
With a bang, Zhang Xingjian felt that his back hit something, and then he was stuck!
He looked left and right, and immediately reacted, he was hung on the eaves!
He stared at Li Ye angrily, but saw that Li Ye just said two words contemptuously: "Idiot." β
Zhang Xingjian finally reacted, just now, everyone's voices exclaimed, not for the huge power of his palm.
But when he realized that Li Ye arrived in front of him at an incredible speed, he punched him when he sent it out!
