Li Xiuyuan walked alone towards the outside of the imperial city.

At the end of the court meeting, there were not many ministers left in the palace, and there were only patrolling forbidden army soldiers and eunuchs hurrying by, and the whole palace was a little quiet and terrifying.

No wonder some would say that the palace was cold.

This oppressive and empty place does make people feel a chill.

"Since you have already torn your face, let's strike first, and use the connections of the six doors to sweep away all the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods in the capital in one fell swoop, especially the Shi Hu who killed the ghost devouring Lei Gong, you must find out, as for the ...... of this national teacher" Li Xiuyuan's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Trap him in the imperial city."

Among them, if he dared to take a step, he would immediately send Lei Gong to surround and kill him. ”

"Within a month, I'm going to take care of the capital. ”

He thought to himself.

Even if he was cheated by these civil officials, he got a crucial hand: he had the right to dispatch six doors.

This is a crucial hand.

So this battle has just begun, and the national teacher wants to use the power of the imperial court to balance himself, so he will draw his salary from the bottom of the kettle.

With this thought, Li Xiuyuan's pace quickened.

At this time, a eunuch on the side of the road in front of him led a team of palace maids, lowered his head, and passed by in a hurry.

Suddenly, one of the palace maids called out with some joy: "Childe~!"

"There is no noise in the imperial city, who is screaming?" the eunuch suddenly turned around and snorted, looking very stern.

Li Xiuyuan glanced at it and was slightly stunned, but saw that the palace maid was a little familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere, but she couldn't remember it for a while, she shouldn't be very familiar with it.

The palace maid was drunk by this, and immediately lowered her head again, and became a little frightened.

"It's you, right, you really don't understand the rules, have you forgotten what our family told you before? The eunuch immediately walked over, stretched out his hand and pinched the palace maid's arm, and twisted it vigorously, and the woman in pain hurriedly cried out in pain.

Li Xiuyuan saw the palace maid clearly, and then remembered that this palace maid was the woman in the sedan chair that she met on the way to Xiangguo Temple some time ago, and remembered that she had thrown a sachet to herself, but she cast a spell on herself and sent it back.

I didn't expect to meet in the palace today.

On the one hand, this woman still remembers herself.

"This father-in-law, I know this woman, she just made a little mistake, is she treating her so badly? It's better to give me a face and just give up, what do you think?" Li Xiuyuan said immediately.

The eunuch saw that Li Xiuyuan was wearing a red robe, obviously of a good grade, so he immediately nodded and bent down and said with a sneer: "My lord, the adult has orders and the little one dares to disobey so much, the villain is blind, and he doesn't know that this girl is an acquaintance of the adult, she should be beaten, she should be beaten." ”

After saying that, he slapped himself twice.

In my heart, I was secretly unlucky: I thought that this woman had no background and could be bullied at will, but I didn't expect that this would casually come out of an official who has been on the top of the five grades.

"Are these all palace maids in the palace?" asked Li Xiuyuan.

The eunuch sneered and said: "Back to the adults, it is a group of show girls selected this time, not palace maids, the little ones really want to take them to the harem." ”

"Really?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at the girl again: "As soon as you enter the palace, it is as deep as the sea, why did the girl come to the draft to enter the palace?"

"What her father wants, the little girl doesn't dare to shirk. The woman bowed her head slightly.

"It is indeed not good to disobey the orders of parents...... If the girl doesn't choose, leave the palace as much as possible. After speaking, Li Xiuyuan took out a few pearls from his arms and gave them to the eunuch: "Take care of one or two, don't let this girl suffer too many grievances, if you can do it, I won't meet me next time."

will do you a loss. ”

The eunuch looked at the round pearls in his hand and knew that this was a treasure pearl from the East China Sea, a rare thing, and he couldn't buy it for a few hundred taels of silver outside.

Immediately, the joy opened up, and the smile became more and more respectful: "The adult commanded, the little one should serve himself, and he will never let this girl be wronged, if the draft fails, the little one will definitely arrange for this girl to leave the palace." ”

He understood what this boy meant, don't let this girl choose.

"That's fine. Li Xiuyuan nodded.

The palace maid's beautiful eyes moved slightly, revealing a look of gratitude.

Li Xiuyuan smiled slightly, and then said, "Then you will take the first step in the next step, and the girl should be careful." ”

"Thank you, childe. The palace maid's cheeks were slightly red, and she was a little ashamed.

Li Xiuyuan smiled, and then turned to leave.

This girl was punished by the eunuch for calling herself, she can't ignore it, after all, she has a one-sided relationship, how can she go if she pretends not to know?

And it is very stupid to directly scold the eunuch, and when she turns around and leaves, who knows how this girl will be troubled, she can only buy it with money.

"Hehe, you are a girl, too, there is such an adult who chooses a show girl, it is better to go out of the palace and marry someone, tsk, the official who has been on the top of the five grades, he is still so young, and he will be an important minister of the court in the future. After Li Xiuyuan left, the eunuch said with a smile: "Don't say that I don't care."

According to you, I will send you out of the palace after going through the motions, don't waste this. ”

The woman's face turned even redder when she heard this, but she couldn't help but look back at the back of the departing son.

I don't know the name of this son......

When Li Xiuyuan left the palace, he saw that Wu Xiang and Han Meng were already waiting at the palace gate.

"Great young master. ”

"The owner. ”

The two men hurriedly saluted.

Li Xiuyuan said, "As you walk, you will go with me to the six doors first." ”

The two nodded.

Soon, the armor warrior who was waiting outside the palace brought a horse, turned on his horse in a few days, and walked in the direction of the six gates.

"Han Meng, you have now been given the name Han Shizhong by the official family, and you have also been named the chief soldier of Yangzhou, do you know the reason?" On the way, Li Xiu said from afar.

"The little ones don't know very well. Han Meng said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "It's to buy people's hearts and divide you and me, whether it's from changing your surname and giving your name, or you are named the general soldier of Yangzhou, you have the meaning of checking and balancing me, the official family wants to use the discord to make us fight, I am the history of Yangzhou Thorn, I can already govern the general army of Yangzhou, he named you the general soldier of Yangzhou, this seal."

There is no difference between being and not sealed, even if someone else becomes the chief soldier of Yangzhou, they also have to work for me. Of course, this is also expected by me, but this is a normal situation, and now I am left in the capital, if you go back to Yangzhou to be the chief soldier, you don't need to serve anyone, you can do it

During my absence, Yangzhou armaments were put in order. ”

"The master is weak and the servant is strong, it is easy to make people suspicious, and once the suspicion begins, it is when you and I fight each other, I am sure that once you return to Yangzhou, someone will contact you, persuade you to stand on your own, hold the military power of Yangzhou, and fall to the court. ”

After speaking, he squinted his eyes slightly: "The official family has made a good move." ”

"Since this emperor is so hateful?" Han Meng's eyes widened, looking a little shocked.

It seems that the random reward is given to change the surname and give the name, but there is such a big conspiracy hidden behind it.

"Don't worry, the eldest young master, although the small one has changed his name to Shizhong, but the loyal one is not the imperial court, not the official family, but the eldest young master, you, the little one has not forgotten who gave the little one a chance to live when the little one was poor, and now the big young master has taken the small one all the way, and now he has become a chief soldier, let

The small glory of the ancestors, such kindness, the small one will never be repaid. Han Meng immediately clenched his fists, his tone firm, and he did not mean to be shaken at all.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Listen to me slowly, I won't doubt your loyalty, you will immediately start to reorganize your armaments when you return to Yangzhou this time, make a posture of preparing for war at any time, and urge Xing Shan's side to see how his newly recruited army is trained, not too much, when I go back."

After training 50,000 Beijing soldiers and 20,000 cavalry, the war horses produced by the horse farm this year plus the last time Li Liangjin was destroyed should be about the same. ”

"50,000 foot soldiers, 20,000 cavalry, this number of men and horses is already the limit of my calculations, no matter how much, I can't afford to raise it, and it is also a burden on Yangzhou. ”

"After I go back, in addition to training, read more books, if you don't understand, go to Jinling City to ask Li Linfu, if I need to, I will recruit you into Beijing at any time, and when the time comes, after receiving my order, I will immediately send 20,000 cavalry to the north first, followed by 50,000 foot soldiers,"

"Young Master, is this a rebellion?"

Han Meng suppressed his voice and said, "If this is the case, it is not difficult to take the capital with our troops, I have seen the defense of the capital, five thousand elites can break the city, and the Great Song Kingdom lacks cavalry, our support will definitely dare to go to the capital first with the armies of other general troops." ”

"Who told you that you were going to rebel?" Li Xiuyuan said: "The Great Song Kingdom still has national fortune, and it is taboo to go against the sky, didn't Zhang Jiao's rebellion at the end of the Han Dynasty also suffer the curse of heaven and die violently? Don't think about these useless things, the change of dynasties has its own number of days, it doesn't mean that the rebellion can be successful, and I didn't think about it."

As the emperor, I asked you to mobilize the army because the fortunes of the Great Song Dynasty were in great decline, and I was afraid that there would be a catastrophe. ”

"The country has a catastrophe, and there will be swords, I am taking precautions, and I also need you to stay in the capital with such a foreign aid, give me a strong reputation, everything is waiting for my news, I have no news to come, don't move, otherwise you know the consequences." ”

"The little one understands. Han Meng nodded solemnly.

"When will the little one go back to Yangzhou? ”

Li Xiuyuan said: "After preparing today, I will set off tomorrow, go to Zhengqi Villa to transfer two hundred armor soldiers to escort, and then I will also let the eight kings go along, you are now the chief soldier, you are no longer what it used to be, and you can't be intercepted and killed on the road in a daze, although there are few things to intercept and kill the imperial court officials."

Now, but who knows if there will be such a few crazy people, after all, even I have been assassinated, so it's right to be careful. ”

"Thank you for your concern. Han Meng said gratefully.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said, "If you leave my side and use your brains more, it will be different to be an official, mainly cautious and steady, if you don't know how to do it, you won't do anything, after all, if you accidentally take a wrong step, it will not only affect you and me, but your family will be implicated.

You can also see a little bit of what is going on in the court today, the political struggle is terrible, and one wrong step is a catastrophe. ”

"That's all there is to it, you go back to the dart bureau to prepare, remember to bring back other people's rewards, and Wu Xiang and I will go to the six gates." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for Han Meng to leave.

"Don't worry, the little one will not disappoint the eldest young master. Han Meng's eyes couldn't help but burst into tears.

In this world, only the eldest young master treats himself so kindly.

Such a man deserves his allegiance for generations.

Li Xiuyuan smiled: "Do your best, Han Meng, no, Han Shizhong." ”

After speaking, he took Wu Xiang and walked towards the yamen of the six doors.

Han Shizhong stood here and watched Li Xiu move away before he wiped tears in his eyes, and then rode away: "Drive~!"

When Li Xiuyuan came to the door of the yamen of the six doors, he saw Cui Wei, who was already waiting here.

"I have seen Lord Li, and Lord Yan learned that Lord Li was coming, so he was specially ordered to wait. Cui Wei clasped his fists and saluted, respectfully.

"Lord Yan, is this Lord Yan in charge of the six doors?" Li Xiuyuan said: "I thought it was you, the chief arrester." ”

"The adults laughed, one province is a general arrest, and the humble position is just the general arrest in the capital. Cui Wei said.

Li Xiuyuan said, "I'm sorry, I'm not very clear about the position of the six doors, since Lord Yan knows that I'm coming, then let President Lao Cui lead the way." ”

"Yes. Adult, this side of the adult, please. Cui Wei said.

Li Xiuyuan turned over and dismounted, took Wu Xiang and a few accompanying armor soldiers and followed Cui Wei into the six gates.

This institution that does not exist in any history, but only exists in the place where it really exists.

Sure enough, this world is different from what I know about normal history.

It can be said that it is different, except for the things of gods and ghosts, there is not much difference, and the change of dynasty is still the same as I am familiar with.

I don't know, I don't understand.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head slightly.
