Following.

The capital meets once every five days.

On this day, Li Xiuyuan had already gotten up before dawn.

Previously, the national teacher sent him a holy decree, asking him to participate in the court meeting of the imperial court today, which was not only to report on his work, but also to deal with some matters of the aftermath of the King of Nine Mountains.

And yesterday, Li Xiuyuan had already asked Han Meng to prepare everything.

If it goes well, he will be able to leave the capital in a few days, return to Yangzhou, and continue the great things he has not completed.

If it doesn't go well...... Li Xiuyuan was only afraid that he felt that he couldn't leave the capital so easily, at least he didn't think that the national teacher would allow him to leave so easily.

"To be honest, I really can't get used to wearing this official uniform, it is bright and fat, there is a feeling of bloat, it looks dull, and it is a little less capable. Li Xiuyuan looked at himself in the mirror and couldn't help but say secretly in his heart.

The official uniforms of the Great Song Kingdom were of different grades, and the colors of the official uniforms were also different.

Li Xiuyuan's official uniform is vermilion, while the third rank is purple.

Therefore, there is also a saying about Zhu Zigui of the Manchu Dynasty.

In addition, the civil official is a fish bag, and the military attache is a jade sword.

He is now considered a military attaché, so when the imperial court rewarded him before, he gave him a jade sword.

The jade sword is just a sword that is more decorated than useful, and the body of the sword is made of copper and iron, which is thin and brittle, and if you use such a sword to kill people, it is better to use a wooden stick to beat people.

This is a taboo in the imperial court, for fear that the military attache will draw a sword in the court if he disagrees, so the jade sword is useless, and the jade sword on the waist of some civil officials has not even been pulled out in his life, but it is immediately broken into several pieces after being pulled out in a hurry.

"Young Master, everything is ready, and you can leave at any time. ”

Suddenly, Han Meng's voice sounded outside the door.

Li Xiuyuan tidied up the clothes that he was not used to, and then walked out of the door.

Outside the door, Han Meng, Wu Xiang, and some other armor soldiers were already ready, they were wearing armor, hanging treasure swords on their waists, and they were full of energy.

Last time he was seriously ill, Li Xiuyuan didn't spend less money to recuperate for them.

"Are all those documents and things in the booklet ready?" Li Xiuyuan said: "There is also a list of rewards, a list of dismissals and executions, and so on?"

"Back to the eldest young master, everything is ready. Han Meng said.

"It's hard work, this time I went to the court to report on my work....... You watch out. Li Xiuyuan groaned for a moment, and said suddenly.

Han Meng was surprised and said, "What does the eldest young master mean by this?"

"I don't know, I only know that if the court doesn't worry about me, it will definitely attack you, I can't determine whether it's good or bad, in short, be cautious. Li Xiuyuan said: "I have made a deal with the national teacher, and the hundred officials above the court will not do anything to me, but if you go to the court with me to be rewarded."

Not necessarily. ”

"The little one understands. Han Meng nodded solemnly.

"Wu Xiang, I won't worry, he is just a reckless man in the eyes of those civil officials, and he can't become a climate. Li Xiuyuan looked at Wu Xiangdao on the side again.

Wu Xiang just smiled and scratched his head, but did not speak.

"Is there a notice from Zuo Qianhu's side, all the prisoners have been pressed into the prison by him, Fu Tianqiu should have stayed in the prison, this court meeting should have a result." Li Xiu said from afar.

"I've asked Sha Jin to send someone to inform. ”

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "Very good, let's go." ”

Soon.

The group rode horses and drove along the street in the direction of the Imperial City.

Along the way, there was a smell of burnt smoke everywhere.

The streets on the left and right sides are not full of flowers in the past, all of them have been burned down into ruins, and now the people of the capital are in the process of rebuilding with sad faces.

A fire, I don't know how many families were burned.

Li Xiuyuan didn't look at it, but sighed slightly in his heart.

Although he begged for a heavy rain to save countless people, he was not happy, nor was he complacent because of his meager achievements.

Because he doesn't need to ask for credit from anyone, what he wants to do is to change the way of the world.

Out of the south of the city.

On the official road close to the imperial city, there were cars and horses one after another.

Most of those are the ministers of the court who are also pinching the time to go to the court, there are six servants, there are also the lords of Zhongshu Province, as well as the Taiwei and Taishi...... Some military attachés in Kyochu.

On weekdays, they are all familiar with each other, and when they see whose sedan chair appears, they know which adult is sitting in it.

And today.

Li Xiuyuan rode a horse and led the armor to the court, which immediately attracted the attention of many adults.

They lifted the corners of the curtain of the carriage and followed the sound of horses' hooves.

When he saw the appearance of Li Xiuyuan, a stranger, he couldn't help frowning.

Looking at his vermilion official uniform, you can guess that this is also a person with a high rank, and looking at his appearance, he is young, which makes people very curious.

Above the imperial court, when did there be such a young official who had already reached the top of the five grades?

However, not everyone doesn't recognize Li Xiuyuan.

Lord Yang of Zhongshu Province knew that this person was Li Xiuyuan, who had pacified Li Liangjin, the king of Jiushan, and was also the great enemy of this person who beheaded his son for the crime of sacrificing the city.

Even though the enemy was in front of him, his old face was as usual.

Years of hard work to nourish qi have not fallen in the end.

Lord Yang's palanquin stopped in front of the imperial city of the capital, he walked down and gave a few orders to the forbidden army guarding the city, and then entered the imperial city with his sleeves fluttering.

"Who is that person? This is the first time I have seen this person at this court. ”

"It must be an official who reports on his work. ”

"Debriefing? There is no palace examination this year, and this person's official uniform has already been put on, which means that the imperial court has rewarded the official position before, and this matter will definitely go through Zhongshu Province, what about Lord Yang? ”

"A few adults don't need to guess, this person is that Li Xiuyuan, and now he is a thorn in history. ”

Several officials at the gate of the imperial city discussed it, but when they asked about Li Xiuyuan's identity, they were shocked in their hearts, and they didn't say anything more, but they had already begun to pay attention.

One identity says it all.

The officials who are all crawling above the court, where can they not count in their hearts?

Li Xiuyuan also felt the eyes of those officials looking at him, how to say it...... It's like a group of friends in the countryside playing with mud, and suddenly a child from another village says they want to play together, and then a group of friends show the kind of demeanor that isolates him and doesn't play with him.

"I have long known that an official like me, who suddenly rises to prominence on the basis of a military exploit, will definitely be hostile and isolated. ”

He shook his head and smiled in his heart, but he didn't think so.

This has been the case throughout the ages.

Not based on ability, but by seniority, birth scores.

Unless someone from above is promoted, no matter how great the merit is, it will be pressed down to death, and it will be called beautiful and honed.

Fart.

It's nothing more than a group of old officials who are jealous of others and use high-sounding excuses to suppress others.

"The atmosphere of the Imperial City is indeed somewhat unusual. ”

Li Xiuyuan squinted his eyes slightly, the essence in his eyes flashed, and he saw a purple gold aura shrouded in the imperial city, which was indescribably precious.

This is the luck of a country.
