Great Tang Broom Star: Chapter 851 boy, be brave

  Chapter 851 Boy, be brave

  A group of big men were complaining indignantly.

   "Your Majesty is merciful, but most of the prime ministers in the court are traitors, otherwise how could such things happen?"

   "Xu Xiang is not a traitor." A big man seems to be a fan of Xu Jingzong, "Xu quite offended countless powerful and powerful people for me to fight for water, and he forcibly demolished those rollers."

  Xu Jingzong glanced at his colleagues and coughed dryly.

   You are all traitors!

  The old men can't be angry, but they can't compete with him.

   "Then everyone else is."

   "A sycophant is in charge of the government, this Tang Dynasty! Yeah, it looks dangerous!"

  A group of prime ministers were full of ambition, thinking that they would surely be famous in history, but today they got a blow in the head in this small village.

   "Gold cups and silver cups are not as good as the reputation of the people!"

  Jia Pingan dropped this sentence, "Wulang, I will take you around the village. There are many interesting things in it."

"good!"

   Jia Pingan took the prince and left, and had no choice but to leave.

  Old Li Ji blushed, Xu Jingzong was proud and then angry at what happened to the people, Li Yifu was dumbfounded, Ren Yaxiang looked a little flustered, Master Xu Yu thought of his questioning Jia Ping'an, wished he could find a way to sneak in...

   Followed by more detailed inquiries.

   While Jia Pingan was wandering around the village with the prince, a dog came towards him.

   "Uncle, what is this?"

   "This is a dirt dog."

   "There was a dog in the palace, it's different!"

  Li Hong raised his head, "Uncle, last time I saw a lot of dogs in Daodefang Gu, and they were all scared away by Ah Fu."

   But the dogs here are wilder.

  A dog is approaching crookedly.

  Jia Pingan took Li Hong by the hand, and said, "When you see a dog coming, don't turn your head back, let alone run away... The dog takes advantage of others. This is not just about the owner being domineering. Once you become timid, it will rush up and bite you!"

   "Then...how about that?" Li Hong was a little flustered.

  Jia Pingan didn't draw his sword, but just led him forward.

   "Don't look down, look into its eyes."

  Li Hong took a deep breath, and stared into the dog's eyes.

  He stepped forward step by step, the palms of his hands were full of sweat.

  The dog looked at him blankly, and suddenly bared its teeth.

"Continue to go."

  Jia Ping'an's voice appeared from behind at some point.

uncle!

   Li Hong found that no one was holding his hand.

  He was flustered, but Jia Ping'an's encouragement came from behind him, "You are a big boy now, boy, you have to face the challenge bravely, Ollie!"

  Holding the handle of the knife with one hand behind him, squinting at the dog's movements.

  The guards who came behind looked at this scene, and felt that their bone marrow was frozen.

   "Mr. Jia, this is... is he going to let the prince die?"

  Front, Li Hong took another step forward.

  The dog whimpered suddenly and ran away with its tail between its legs.

   Li Hong stood there, his mind blank.

   After a long time, he recalled the scene just now.

  I forced a vicious dog away?

   So I can be so powerful? There was more splendor in Li Hong's eyes.

  In an instant, he felt that he had grown up.

   Jia Ping'an backed up quickly and stopped when he turned his head.

  Li Hong turned around, and Jia Pingan stood far behind him with arms folded, looking lonely.

"uncle!"

  Li Hong waved his hand and smiled brightly.

   Later, Jia Pingan took him to find a family.

   "Master, we are passing by here, hungry, here is some money, if it is convenient, can you make me some food?"

   This is an ordinary family, with a male master, a female master, and five children. The oldest of the children was fifteen or sixteen years old, and looked very strong.

  Except for the eldest, the other four children looked at them curiously, one of them was a girl.

  The man rubbed his hands, "There are rough food at home..."

   Jia Ping'an touched ten Wen coins and went up.

   "It's just some rough food, it's worth asking for money!"

  The male host is rejecting.

  The hostess also yelled at the side: "It's just some food, just eat it. People in Guanzhong, how can they have the nerve to collect money? Don't humiliate my family."

   But Jia Pingan refused and insisted on giving the money.

  Li Hong felt very strange, thinking that his uncle is so smart, why would he forcefully give money to others if they don’t want it? Look, uncle actually forced money into the hands of the boss of this family.

  After a lot of tossing, the male host blushed and said: "It's done... It's done..."

  His wife has already gone in and started cooking.

   "Please boil the pots and chopsticks in boiling water."

   Jia Ping'an made a request.

  He doesn't care, but the eldest nephew is still young and pampered, if some diseases are caused by eating unclean things...

  Auntie can kick his **** into four pieces.

   Li Hong, who was eating a meal, looked sad, seeing that his uncle was eating deliciously, and he could only suffer.

   Later, a group of old men came to find them. Seeing them eating at the farmhouse, they all nodded slightly, admiring Jia Ping'an's methods very much.

   "The prince knows the sufferings of the people, so he will naturally be a wise king in the future."

   "But this matter is wrong." Ren Yaxiang said in a deep voice: "The old man didn't point out this matter at the beginning, and he was negligent of his duty."

  Everyone started their return journey, and the prime ministers’ stomachs were growling, but no one wanted to find something to eat.

  In the palace, there are hundreds of riders who have come back quickly to report the trip.

   "Those common people say that not many people are willing to join the army...Without the rewards, it is better to farm at home. Some people say that such a Tang Dynasty may be dangerous."

   Li Zhi sat there blankly.

  Countless past events flashed in my mind.

"The first emperor attached great importance to the army, but the rewards for going out must be rich. During the expedition, some generals were injured, and the first emperor even sucked the pus from the wound for him... In this way, the rule of Zhenguan came into being. I... remember most of the first emperor's words, but forgot Those words he said to the army. I... so dangerous!"

  Holding the brush with both hands, he exerted great force.

Snapped!

  The brush barrel made of bamboo is not completely broken, and some parts are still bent together.

"This is the army. If I cancel the expedition reward, it will break the morale and loyalty of the army, but some are still connected. This is lingering... As time goes on, those places will be completely disconnected. At that time, The army will regard me as an enemy, and loyalty will become a joke!"

  Boom!

  The emperor suddenly pushed away the things on the case table, and the inkstone rolled down into the pile of memorials, dripping with ink.

   "Your Majesty!"

  Wu Mei came in and couldn't help being surprised when she saw this.

   "Why?"

  Li Zhi shook his head, "Wu Lang and the prime ministers went to investigate outside the city, and the news just came that what Jia Pingan said in the morning...was verified."

   "Are the common people unwilling to join the army?" Li Zhi told her about it.

Li Zhi nodded, "I don't think so, I didn't expect it! This is indeed true. Those people even said that the court except me is a traitor, and they are greedy for those rewards... But I know, they are speculating on me... If They feel that I canceled the reward, Mei Niang..."

  Wu Mei said in a deep voice: "If this is the case, the army will be separated from His Majesty! Without the army, Your Majesty... the Tang Dynasty is in danger!"

Li Zhi closed his eyes, "I'm afraid just thinking about it. No wonder Jia Ping'an roared at the court in the morning... It's ridiculous that the prime minister of the court didn't know it. ...The ones who should be punished are those prime ministers!"

  He is the emperor, can't be wrong!

   It is only the courtiers who are wrong!

  Wu Mei was afraid, but laughed, "Others will ignore these things if they know about them. Only Ping An is loyal... I think it's okay to be a minister."

  My little brother is so loyal, but you can't even part with a minister.

   Li Zhi said with a dark face: "He is now a minister, what will he do in a few years? Could he be a prime minister?"

"Isn't it possible?" Wu Mei said with a matter-of-fact face: "Aspiring people are not young, look at those people in the court, canceling rewards is the suggestion of the Ministry of Households, and those who wait for the corpses to eat vegetarian meals can also steal high positions. Shame on you!"

  Her eyes were cold and stern, "The prime minister didn't know how to make precise decisions when he didn't know to go down to visit? It's just a blind man feeling the elephant, and he is still complacent!"

   "Jia Pingan said in the morning that this is why not eat minced meat." Li Zhi smiled wryly and said, "Even I scolded me for this."

   "Good scolding!"

Wu Meilang said in a loud voice: "If the emperor is wrong, the courtiers should remonstrate. Does Your Majesty think that those who only know how to say good things and flatter His Majesty are loyal ministers? They are not loyal ministers, but sycophants, flattery! Such people, ministers and concubines If you can make the decision, you will definitely be kicked out of the court and never hired!"

   This shrew!

  Li Zhi pointed at her and nodded slightly, "I understand. Jia Ping'an is angry, and the anger comes from his heart. This is because he is worried that the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty will decline. Once they decline, those foreign enemies will swarm in..."

  The Baiqi was dumbfounded after listening to the emperor's review, Wang Zhongliang coughed dryly, "Is there anything else?"

   It's okay, what are you waiting for? Get out of here. Keep listening, be careful not to leave Chang'an in the future.

  The empress discovered that these words had been heard by outsiders.

  Two eyes fixed on Baiqi, his back was wet with sweat, and he said: "Your Majesty, Duke Jia let the crown prince ride his horse when he left the imperial city earlier!"

Wu Mei didn't wait for Li Zhi to speak, she flicked her sleeves and said: "Wulang is nine years old, why can't he ride a horse? I know the horse of Ping'an, it is a good horse rewarded by His Majesty. He has fought with Ping'an for many years, and he is the most humane. If Wulang rides, it means nothing happened."

"yes."

  Baiqi held back for a moment, "In that village, Junjun Jia took the prince for a walk and told him some things about the village."

   This is to let the prince understand the people's sentiments.

   Li Zhi thought it was good.

   "Later a dog came and came towards the crown prince. Duke Jia didn't make a move, but let the palace walk forward step by step, getting closer and closer to that dog..."

   Li Zhi felt cold and glanced at Wu Mei.

  Your brother did a good job!

  Wu Mei's heart also turned cold.

  Go back and hang him there to dry!

"and after?"

  Wang Zhongliang was also quite anxious.

   Baiqi said: "Mr. Jia was right behind the crown prince. Later, the prince stepped forward step by step and got very close to the dog. The dog turned around and ran away...Jun Gong also retreated..."

  Li Zhi felt relieved, "This Jia Ping'an, he is sharpening Goro's courage!"

  The dog said!

  Li Zhi himself did not dare to face a vicious dog alone, but Jia Ping’an’s stick dared to...

  Wu Mei gritted her teeth and said: "The concubine will deal with him naturally!"

   Strip it alive!

   Li Zhi really thinks so.

   That guy backed away suddenly, just to make the prince think that he was really driving the vicious dog back by himself.

   "Your Majesty, the princes are here, and Duke Jia is here."

   That guy is here... Li Zhi coughed dryly, "Meiniang stay here."

   Baiqi hurriedly resigned.

  When he went out, he met Jia Ping'an and looked at him with that apologetic look.

what does this mean?

  Jia Pingan clutched his stomach resolutely, "Ouch! Stomach hurts, please go, gentlemen, I'll find a latrine first."

   This guy ran away in a flash, and the prime ministers felt heavy at the moment, and didn't care about this.

  After entering, Ren Yaxiang was the first to plead guilty.

   "Your Majesty, my crimes cannot be pardoned."

  He raised his head, tears streaming down his face, "I ignored this matter at the beginning, if Duke Jia hadn't found out the harm, I would still be complacent, my crime is unforgivable!"

  Xu Jingzong said with a determined face: "Your Majesty, I am the chief culprit!"

  Li Ji sighed, "Your Majesty, as a warrior, the old minister did not stop him at the beginning. The old minister begged for severe punishment."

  Master Xu Yu was not the prime minister at the time, but he also pleaded guilty, "I shouldn't have questioned Duke Jia before, but should have gone down to investigate. Duke Jia said why I don't eat minced meat, and I...accept the crime!"

  Li Yifu was silent.

  What about Jia Pingan? Li Zhi looked at the crowd and suddenly laughed.

"I'm very happy when the ministers scramble to plead guilty. If the Tang Dynasty is to be strong, I won't talk about it. The important thing is that the prime ministers can take responsibility? Why take responsibility?" Li Zhi's brows became more comfortable, "If there is a mistake, just do it." Admit it, correct it if you make a mistake, this is responsibility. I also made a mistake in this matter..."

  This means exempt from punishment.

  Xu Jingzong took the liberty to say, "Your Majesty, I feel uneasy about the sudden exoneration. I am willing to pay 100,000 yuan as a fine!"

   Tut!

  Old Xu is so rich!

  Li Ji immediately followed up, "The veteran is the culprit, and he should be fined 200,000 yuan."

  Old Li's family followed Jia Ping'an to do some business, and they were not short of money.

   "I am willing to be fined 100,000 yuan!"

  Li Zhi nodded in satisfaction and said: "The monarch and his ministers are united, this is a prosperous age."

He looked at the memorial on the ground, and ordered: "Then the Ministry of War draws up the roster of officers and men who have not been rewarded in the past few years, as well as the roster of military merits. The soldiers should not be wronged, let alone chilled."

  Wu Mei praised: "It's not too late to make up for it!"

   Everyone agreed.

  Ren Yaxiang said: "I will arrange it when I go back. Even if the Ministry of War does not sleep, it must be checked as soon as possible."

  Li Zhi suddenly sneered and said: "I have remembered something. The Ministry of Households' suggestion at the beginning was sinister. Money and food were saved, but I and the soldiers also left their hearts!"

   This matter is indeed a big mistake, but the emperor's pot is also quite beautiful.

  Who will take the blame?

  Wu Mei looked at the prime ministers with bad eyes.

  Li Zhi glanced at the memorials again, "Many memorials came today, and many of them said that Lu Chengqing deserved this crime and should not have left Chang'an..."

   To be an official must be in Chang'an.

  I would rather be a small official in Chang'an than go to the following counties to be a long history.

  Li Zhi said lightly: "That's okay, let him go to Yongzhou to be a long history."

Well!

  The prime ministers lost their composure and looked up.

  Lu Chengqing used to work in Yongzhou Biejia, but later changed his name to Changshi. Is this to humiliate Lu Chengqing or what?

  The boss has become a prime minister, and suddenly he returned to the old place to hang out with everyone... Interesting?

  Everyone couldn't help but looked at the emperor in astonishment.

  The emperor looked calm, even relieved, "Lu Qing is very talented, I think he can do it."

  There is a bit of coldness in these words.

have to!

  Lu Chengqing was taking the blame for the emperor, and by the way, he was on the emperor's blacklist.

"Should!"

  Someone cheered loudly.

  Who is the mother who applauds loudly?

  This matter... Even if you think the emperor handled it well, you wouldn't say it in front of everyone, right? Aren't you afraid of Fan Yang Lu... No, aren't you afraid that Shandong gentry will make trouble for you?

  Everyone saw...

  Xu Jingzong was filled with righteous indignation.

   Then they dispersed.

  Wu Mei said faintly: "Just now when Your Majesty said that Lu Chengqing should be the governor of Yongzhou, most people didn't think so. Shandong gentry..."

   "Shandong gentry!"

   Li Zhi whispered.

   This is the emperor's most difficult opponent.

"Take it easy."

  Li Zhi looked at her, "Let's use ten, twenty, thirty years to weaken them step by step, and wait for the children and grandchildren to come up again..."

   "This is Yugong Yishan." Wu Mei smiled and said: "Wulang will definitely be able to follow His Majesty's arrangement in the future, and it will be hard for others to say."

   "It's not hard to say." Li Zhi was sober, "It's just that he didn't dare!"

  The gentry in Shandong are powerful, but if the emperor is weaker, he dare not take action to weaken them.

   "Goro's temperament..." Wu Mei frowned, "He is a filial child, but a filial child... the concubines are worried that he will not dare to face those nobles."

  Li Zhi nodded, "I will find a way."

  The husband and wife looked at each other, and they both felt the troubles and joys of being a parent.

   "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince seeks to see you."

   Li Zhi smiled and said, "Tell him to come in."

  The husband and wife looked at the gate of the palace.

  The autumn wind is very cool and the light is good.

  Li Hong walked in and looked at his back straight.

   Li Zhi suddenly went into a trance.

   "This child...he used to dare not look into my eyes, at most he just glanced at him, but today...he actually stared into my eyes."

  Wu Mei suddenly thought of something, but she still had to ask.

Li Hong came in, saluted and said, "Aye, Aniang, uncle took me to the village today, those people..." He looked at Li Zhi, "Those people are pitiful, they said they lost money by joining the army, Aye, Those people still said that if this continues, this Tang Dynasty will be in danger. I was flustered and wished I could find a way to solve this matter right away."

   Li Zhi's heart moved, and he asked with a smile: "How do Wu Lang think this matter should be resolved?"

  Li Hong thought for a while, "Aye, I thought the court made a mistake in this matter, and Aye was also wrong."

  My little ancestor! You actually said that His Majesty was wrong... Wang Zhongliang looked troubled.

  Li Zhi nodded noncommittally, encouraging him to continue.

   "I thought Aye was going to admit his mistake." Li Hong blushed a little, but he refused to avoid his gaze, "Admit your mistakes."

   Li Zhi looked at him and said expressionlessly: "I see."

  Wu Mei looked at him in surprise, "Your Majesty..."

   Li Zhi is considered cowardly by outsiders, but Wu Mei deeply knows that her husband is decisive. Look at the way he used Changsun Wuji to get rid of his opponent; look at the way he has planned for several years to take down Changsun Wuji and others in one fell swoop...Who dares to say that he is cowardly and incompetent?

  Back then, the elder Sun Wuji and others tried their best to encourage him to commit a crime against himself, but Li Zhi remained unmoved. What the prince said today was actually a taboo, but Li Zhi said he knew it.

   "I did make a big mistake in this matter." Li Zhi was still terrified when he thought of this matter, "Wu Lang is pure filial piety, but he also persists. I am very happy."

   Li Hong was praised and smiled very easily.

   At this moment, Li Zhi suddenly asked: "Why did Wulang dare to look into Aye's eyes today?"

  Li Hong subconsciously said: "Aye, today my uncle taught me not to run away from a vicious dog, not to run away, but to stare into its eyes and approach it step by step... to face the challenge bravely."

   Li Zhi was dumbfounded, and suddenly waved his hand.

  Li Hong resigned.

  He walked out of the hall, scratched his head and asked, "Is Aye unhappy?"

  Wang Zhongliang sent him out and said in a low voice, "Probably."

  Little ancestor, grow up.

  Wang Zhongliang said in a low voice: "Mr. Jia's move is a bit too much for Meng Lang."

  This person... seems a bit sinister! Li Hong frowned and looked at him, "What do you know? Uncle is thinking about his loneliness. You want to speak ill of uncle..."

  Wang Zhongliang felt a chill in his back, and his knees ached. He just wanted to explain...

"Ha ha ha ha!"

   Suddenly, the emperor laughed loudly.

  Li Hong turned around, smiling brightly, "Aye is happy."

  …

  Jia's house, Shen Qiu drifted over.

  Jia Pingan was holding his corpse in the study, feeling that the wind was not right, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the handsome Shen Qiu.

   "I said you didn't know how to say hello when you came in?"

  Shen Qiu stretched out his hand to press the messy hair, and said flatly: "Except for the imperial palace, we don't need to say hello wherever we go."

   "Ah Fu!"

  Jia Pingan yelled, Shen Qiu was startled, and retreated subconsciously. It was later discovered that Afu was not there.

  He was a little annoyed, and said coldly: "Where did you let Bao Dong and Lei Hong get a dog that doesn't bite people? Why?"

  …

   Ask for a monthly pass!

Good night!
