When Li Xiuyuan entered the yamen, he saw official documents scattered on the ground, and the table next to him was kicked to the ground.

And next to the main seat sat an elderly civil official, who was now leaning back in his chair and snoring.

The civil official didn't seem to hear the movement outside Shicai.

"Knock knock~!"

Li Xiuyuan walked over and knocked on the table and said, "Don't sleep, wake up." ”

"Huh?"

The old civil official was woken up, and opened his eyes a little dazedly, but when he saw this strange young man, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed and said: "What is the noise, don't you see that this official is taking a lunch break? Where are you on an errand, didn't this official give orders, as long as it is not the chief soldier, no one is allowed to come."

Disturb the officer,"

"Get out of here, it's good for you to disturb the official again. ”

This old civil official looked like a high-spirited bureaucrat, glared at Li Xiuyuan and shouted angrily.

Li Xiuyuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with this old civil official, so he reached out and grabbed it, and directly lifted his whole person from his seat with the placket of his clothes.

"I'm the guerrilla general Li Xiuyuan, it doesn't matter if you don't know me, I ask you to answer, don't put your posture as a civil official in front of me, I'm not in a good mood today, if you are stubborn, I will immediately throw you out of the yamen. ”

The old civil official's feet were off the ground, and his body was raised by Li Xiuyuan with one arm, his face suddenly changed greatly, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.

"You, don't come nonsense, Ben, this official is an official of the imperial court, you are only, just a guerrilla general, dare to do this, dare to do this?"

"Noise. ”

Li Xiuyuan threw it casually and threw it in the lobby, and the old civil official who fell was about to crack his hip bone.

"Who said that guerrilla generals should be afraid of you officials? If you dare to make trouble in Jinling City, it will be difficult for me to arrest you if you want to tie your hands. Li Xiuyuan stared at him and said, "Look at you, you shouldn't be the chief soldier, where did the three chief soldiers go?"

"Oops~!"

The old civil official shouted in pain: "You, you dare to commit a crime, but you are just a guerrilla general, on the contrary, on the contrary, on the contrary, this official wants to go to the court, and ask you for the crime, come to someone, come to someone." ”

However, the people who came in response were not those soldiers, but the Li family army under Li Xiuyuan.

I can't even see the situation clearly, I only know that I rely on my official authority and play tricks wantonly, and I know that you won't be a good thing if you look at your posture, or I don't bother to talk nonsense with you, and I see this person thrown out of the yamen and imprisoned.

The offences are...... He led his troops to break into the yamen and tried to kill the guerrilla general. Li Xiuyuan looked at him.

The old civil official's eyes widened when he heard this, and he pointed at him and trembled: "You, you are framed, when did this official lead his troops to break into the yamen privately? Obviously, you deceived me, why did it become that I wanted to kill you?"

"Don't you also accuse me of the following crimes? Why can't I convict you of a crime as well? As for whose crime is true, it is up to each person to decide on his ability. ”

Li Xiuyuan said lightly, and then waved his hand.

Immediately, Li Jiajun under his command dragged the old civil official out of the yamen.

"Li Xiuyuan, you are guilty of the following crimes, there is no king's law, you dare to take this official to prison, you will definitely regret it in the future, just a guerrilla general, you are finished. ”

The old civil servant screamed and struggled.

"Then you just wait and see, see if I finish first, or you finish first, you don't need to call, I understand a little bit about the battle in the officialdom, although there is no blood in killing, but it is also a battle of life and death. ”

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "So please rest assured, I will not show mercy to my subordinates, and I will never dismiss you if I can cut off your head." ”

He doesn't have the time and energy to intrigue with these mediocre officials now, and he will deceive him, which would be too embarrassing.

He's going to have to deal with these flies and dogs in his own way.

Ignoring his struggles, Li Jiajun beside him had already grabbed him and walked in the direction of the prison.

Looking at the mess on the ground and being trampled on in a mess, Li Xiuyuan's face was gloomy.

If these general soldiers really came to assist in defending the city and governing Jinling City, he could tolerate these general soldiers, but he couldn't see the slightest bit of this kind of move for the country and the people.

What is this?

Show off your official authority?

Still did not take this guerrilla general in their eyes, Jinling City has become their bag, and even the yamen has sent soldiers and civilian officials to occupy it.

It's like three leper dogs, peeing everywhere.

"Young Master, the matter has been completed, and all the people outside have unloaded their weapons and taken custody. At this time, the guard Mao Wu walked in and hugged his fists.

Li Xiuyuan put the dirty official documents he picked up on the ground on the table, and then said: "Go, inquire which three general soldiers have come to Jinling City, and where they are now, Jinling City is so big, it is impossible to find it, by the way, I will send an order to Han Meng, so that Li Jiajun is ready, at any time."

Prepare for battle. ”

"Yes, young master. Mao Wu answered, held the waist knife and left.

Li Xiuyuan did not linger any longer in the yamen, he turned around and left, and went to the cell.

Walking down the steps, the dimly lit dungeon guarded by few jailers, he made his way to the last cell.

In this cell.

A middle-aged man with gray hair and beard was sitting in front of a desk at the moment, lighting an oil lamp, writing hard and writing a piece of music.

"The old man can't do it, there is no loyal person in the whole court, there is no loyal and patriotic person, the old man wants to join the three general soldiers, lead the troops into Jinling City, rob the granary, occupy the official office, and injure people. ”

Soon, Fu Tianqiu finished writing a piece of music, and he looked left and right: "Qingfeng Yuechi, you go out with the chapter, let Xiaoliu send someone to the capital, the old man still has a few good friends in the capital, they will definitely help the old man play the court." ’

There are two young and beautiful women sitting next to them, one is beautiful with a bit of heroism, and the other is delicate and immature, with bright eyes and quite cute.

These two women are none other than Fu Qingfeng and Fu Yuechi.

"Yes, father, daughter understands. Fu Qingfeng nodded.

"Master Fu, don't waste time writing a recital, your recital can't reach the emperor's case, and Lord Fu should know better than me about the fight between officials. Li Xiuyuan strode over and said.

Fu Tian raised his head and looked at Li Xiuyuan with hatred: "The old man has his own way of doing things, it is enough for you to take care of Qingfeng Yuechi for the old man." ”

"Master Fu, your temper hasn't changed at all, which makes people unhappy. Li Xiu said from afar.

Fu Tianqiu said: "The old man also doesn't like people like you who act recklessly, I heard that you killed Lord Yang, several other generals, and Deputy General Jiang in the city? You are just a guerrilla general, how dare you take such an opportunity to kill civil and military officials? And one of them is also an envoy of the imperial court,

。 ”

After speaking, he was a little angry and said.

"The ancients said, the Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people, although I know that this is just a beautiful empty word, a lie, but I think it is not inappropriate to kill the people who should be killed, they don't die, so who will be responsible for the death of a few people outside the city and thousands of soldiers?" Li Xiuyuan said.

"Even if you want to kill, you have to wait for the court to order, they sacrifice the city and surrender This is a capital crime, why should you be in a hurry. ”

Fu Tianqiu hated him and said, "You have finally solved the crisis in Jinling City, and now the rebel Li Liangjin, the king of Jiushan, has not been eliminated, and the imperial court is at the time of employing people, do you think you can still be a guerrilla general for this killing?"

"Naturally, it should go on. ”

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly: "As long as there are a few fewer people like Master Fu in the court." ”

"Sometimes there are benefits to court corruption, at least there is a chance to be flexible in some things, Master Fu, what do you say?"

Fu Tianqiu's eyes widened and said, "Didn't you buy off a certain court official?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "Master Fu still doesn't seem to understand me, but it doesn't matter, Master Fu just needs to watch it in prison, whether my approach Master Fu can understand or not, the final result will be seen by the world, as long as they think it is a good result."

There is no need to insist too much on the twists and turns of the process. ”

"The juniors came here to visit the safety of Master Fu, to see if Master Fu was persecuted by the three general soldiers, and now that they see that Master Fu is fine, and the two girls in Qingfeng Yuechi are also fine, the juniors are relieved. ”

"Li Gongzi, you don't know your father's temper, please forgive Li Gongzi more and understand my father, he has no other meaning, that is, he is loyal to the king and the country. Fu Qingfeng came over at this moment, and gave a salute with a little shyness and apology.

Fu Yuechi next to him also puffed up his face and said: "That's it, brother-in-law, you should be generous, don't be like your father, by the way, brother-in-law, then should you send this piece or not?"

"It's a waste of time to send it over, throw it in the brazier and burn it to keep warm. ”

Fu Tianqiu glared and said, "You dare, the old man's chapter must be presented to His Majesty, and it must not be burned by you." ”

"If you send it to the capital, you will be burned in the fire in the end, and you will not be able to pass it in Zhongshu Province. ”

Li Xiuyuan said: "As a prisoner, you want to participate in the three general soldiers who hold military power? It is impossible for Master Fu or the squire of the military department to do it." ”

"Eat the king's luck, bear the king's worries......"

"Okay, okay, Master Fu's patriotism is very clear in the hearts of the juniors, so I won't bother Master Fu, the juniors still have some trivial matters to deal with, so I will leave first, Qingfeng, you are here to take care of Master Fu, if there is anything for Xiaoliu to find me." Li Xiu said from afar.

Fu Qingfeng nodded and responded: "Yes, I will take care of Father here, and please don't worry about Li Gongzi." ”

Fu Tianqiu watched Li Xiu walk away, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This old man Li Xiuyuan finally understands something, he is the Mengde of the Han Dynasty, the capable minister who governs the world, and the hero of the troubled times, he can pull up a cavalry of nearly 10,000 people in just one month, and they are all well-trained and well-equipped, in one fell swoop."

defeated more than 100,000 rebels, if it weren't for this, Li Xiuyuan had already prepared to kill the old man, and he wouldn't believe it. ”

"Father, isn't this a good thing? brother-in-law, after his ability is so great, we won't be bullied by those corrupt officials. Fu Yuechi said.

Fu Tianqiu blew his beard and glared: "Ridiculous, where is this a good thing, a cavalry, need horses, ordnance, sergeants, silver taels, all of them are indispensable, Li Xiuyuan can prepare neatly for a month, it can be seen that his Li family has long been preparing in secret, my Great Song Kingdom is short of horses, and the southern land is better, so I want to have it."

Nearly 10,000 cavalry, and the horses alone will take at least ten years to prepare, don't you know what that means?"

Speaking of this, he stomped his feet and sighed: "If you calculate like this, Li Xiuyuan was less than ten years old, no, he was practicing horse politics at about five years old, so that he could raise tens of thousands of healthy horses, and the five-year-old boy was planning to plan for the country.

"Father, you are too worried, Li Gongzi has been in business for generations, three generations of huge wealth, and Ma Gui in the south, it is not impossible for Li Gongzi's ancestors to have this move. Fu Qingfeng said: "Li Gongzi has a good character, why did he become a demon in his father's mouth?"

"The surname Li can't be underestimated, there is Li Liangjin, the king of Jiushan, in the front, and Li Xiuyuan, a guerrilla general, Wen Ruo, do you remember the hexagram of the Tang Dynasty's Qishu Tui back map?" Fu Tianqiu looked at the cell next to him.

There was also a middle-aged scribe in the cell next to him who was handling government affairs, and he said with a smile: "There is a hanging, but it is better not to believe in such books." ”

"If you don't believe it, you can't believe it, I'm afraid that the hexagram should be between Li Xiuyuan and Li Liangjin, and the Great Song Dynasty is worried about domestic and foreign troubles, and you don't know it. Fu Tianqiu sighed.

Duan Wenruo said: "But it's really because of this that this world needs General Li, a hero in troubled times, isn't it?"

"What if he is Cao Mengde?" Fu Tianqiu said.

Duan Wenruo replied: "Cao Mengde didn't usurp the Han until he died, didn't he? The traitor is like loyalty, the loyalty is like a traitor, General Li has his own way, the adults should go with the flow, since they are married, the adults should help the village more, mention General Li, after all, General Li is still young, and his temperament is not calm enough, if

Adults can put down their bodies and teach well, and maybe there will be a turnaround. ”

When Fu Tianqiu heard this, he fell into thought.

When Li Xiuyuan left the cell, Mao Wu and Xing Shan under his command walked over with more than a dozen Li family soldiers.

"How's the news of the three chief soldiers?"

Mao Wudao: "Back to the eldest young master, the three chief soldiers have already found out, one is from Yangzhou, one is from Jiangxi, and one is from Hunan. ”

"Where are the three of them now?" Li Xiuyuan nodded and asked again.

Mao Wudao: "Drinking in a green building on the Qinhuai River. ”

Drinking in Qinglou?

Li Xiuyuan's face sank: "As a chief soldier, you just came to Jinling City and went to the Qinhuai River to drink?"

"Yes, yes, that's what the little ones got in. "Mao Wudao.

"Sure enough, there is a faint official's faction, go, follow me to the Qinhuai River, and meet these three chief soldiers for a while. Li Xiuyuan signaled, and immediately led the people to stride towards the Qinhuai River.
