After dismounting at the Zhuque Gate outside the imperial city, Pei Ji entered the palace first. Li Shan accompanied Yuan Junzhang and walked slowly. Yuan Xiaozheng was not qualified to see him yet, so he waited outside the palace.
"The emperor's atmosphere is indeed myriad." Yuan Junzhang seemed a little nervous and only looked at it with the corner of his eye.
Li Shan casually recited: "A country with thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, a city with nine gates. If you don't see the emperor's residence, you will know that the emperor is respected."
Nowadays, Li Shan pays special attention to poetry. He remembers clearly that this poem was written by King Luo Bin. In history, this person and Li Shiji's grandson rebelled against martial arts. It is not known whether he was born or not.
"Don't you want to chant flowers today?"
Hearing the female voice, Yuan Junzhang was surprised. He turned around and saw a heroic girl in military uniform with a long sword slung across her body.
"What did the third sister say?" Li Shanqian laughed twice and thought about it. This matter has spread throughout the city. My father-in-law must not make blind assumptions.
"This is Lord Rui Guo." Bayi Chinese website
"This is Princess Pingyang, your Majesty's legitimate daughter. She currently resides in the Imperial Palace and is in charge of the imperial palace and oversees the Beiya imperial army."
Sure enough, it was this person. There was a slight trace of sweat on Yuan Junzhang's forehead. The year before last, he followed Jieli Khan and almost penetrated Hedong Road. He fought against Princess Pingyang in Taiyuan Mansion... Well, the latter was also hit by an arrow in that battle. He was seriously injured and almost died.
Princess Pingyang's face was deserted, "There is no news that day. If Huairen is trapped in Mayi, one day he will personally bring an army to wipe out Shuozhou!"
"Hey, it happened a long time ago. After the rain, the weather will be fine." Li Shan advised.
"You are still young, how could you know that people's hearts are evil!" Princess Pingyang scolded: "I asked you to stay in the court, why do you insist on going to Daizhou again?"
"Yongkang County Lord should be able to go north soon." Li Shan spread his hands and said, "Uncle will call my younger brother back to Beijing when the time comes."
Seeing what Princess Pingyang was about to say, Li Shan quickly asked: "Third sister, are you summoned by uncle?"
After all, Yuan Junzhang was still there, and Princess Pingyang couldn't say anything. She just nodded and said: "Father summoned her, in Liangyi Hall."
Referring to each other as brother and sister, and calling Emperor Tang as uncle, although he knew that Li Shan had the trust of His Majesty, but it could be done like this in the palace, Yuan Junzhang couldn't help but feel a little distracted, and Li Shan who was leading the way in front of him had already walked away before he realized .
After catching up a few steps, Yuan Junzhang watched as Li Shan picked up the hem of his official uniform and kicked someone to the ground with a fierce kick.
Damn it, isn't this a bit too arrogant? !
Yuan Junzhang took a look and saw that both of them were wearing Hu clothes. The person who was kicked to the ground was unknown, but the person who stopped Li Shan who was still trying to make up for it was clearly Ashina Simo. Well.
Yuan Junzhang's expression suddenly changed dramatically. He lowered his head and carefully identified the man who had just climbed up from the ground... There were several whip marks on his face that had not dissipated, and he vaguely looked like Yu Gushe, the only son of Jieli Khan.
"Huairen!"
There was a cry from behind, and the palace guards from the left and right of Chengtian Gate rushed over, led by Princess Pingyang, who had a face as cold as frost.
Li Shan didn't look back, and stared at Yu Gushe with a sneer, "Behead someone, kidnap my wife and concubines, and kill my relatives. You, a loser, don't have any hope in this life!"
Yugushe's face turned pale, and he stared at Li Shan, trying his best to suppress the hatred deep in his heart... He thought that Tujue had reached an agreement with Li Tang and that he would be able to go back soon. It didn't matter even if he said a few harsh words, but Unexpectedly, Li Shan kicked him swiftly.
After hearing Li Shan's words, Princess Pingyang secretly gritted her teeth and raised her right hand to make a gesture. Dozens of palace guards circled around from both sides. Although they did not raise their swords, they were vaguely surrounding her.
Li Shan took a few steps forward, pushed aside Ashina Simo who kept saluting and apologizing, and walked in front of Yu Gushe, "He led five thousand elites from the king's tent and was defeated without any resistance. A waste like you, Is there still a chance to go into battle?"
"The Ashina clan rose up at the right time, across the grassland, and controlled millions of people. I have met several people in the past few years, whether it is Ashina She'er, Ashina Momo, Ashina Jusheli, or You may have strategy or courage, but you, Ashina Yugushe, have brought disgrace to the entire clan!"
"Do you think you can go back so easily?"
"Stop dreaming!"
Ashina Simo had to raise his voice and said: "The Emperor of Tang promised, is it disrespectful to the Duke of Guantao County?"
"Your Majesty will release this official at the price of 30,000 men and women, 1,000 good horses, and 500 cattle." Li Shan chuckled and said, "Before that, Daizhou will naturally take over Yugushe!"
Yu Gushe's expression changed drastically and he unconsciously took a few steps back. For more than half a month, he had been whipped several times a day and often forgot to bring food and water. It was really hard to bear.
Li Shan turned around and raised his eyebrows at Ashina Simo, "You order the messenger to tell Jie Li that if there are any old, weak, sick or disabled men and women among the 30,000 men and women, and if there is a vacancy, use his son's fingers, toes and ears to replace them!"
Chen Shuda's figure appeared not far away. Princess Pingyang glanced at it without reminding him.
Ashina Simo frowned and said, "What the county magistrate said is wrong. The two countries have good relations..."
"Hahaha!" Li Shan laughed loudly, "The two countries are on good terms, the two countries are on good terms... Brother Mo Mo also blamed each other for this before he died last year. Brother Simo, don't you think it's funny?!"
"Occupy my land, kidnap my people, and seize my money. There will be generous rewards in the future. Li Huairen is not talented, but he also has the ambition to be a champion. The animals will not rest, and the married woman will have no color!"
Ashina Simo's face became extremely ugly. He was well versed in Chinese studies and could naturally understand these words.
Hou Huo Qubing, the former champion of the Han Dynasty, swept across Monan. The Xiongnu lamented about this, "Losing me in the Qilian Mountains will make my six animals unable to live; losing my Yanzhi Mountain will make my married woman colorless."
Li Shan raised his head and turned around, glancing at Yugu She, "Whatever you do, this will definitely not be the last meeting."
"But before you return it, you'd better be honest and don't ask for trouble!"
"In charge of Daizhou, people in the county say they have never seen such parents in their lives. They are so benevolent and righteous. How can you call yourself a champion?" Chen Shuda walked over and said loudly: "Huairen is too modest."
"Meet Mr. Jiang Guo." Li Shan bowed and introduced: "Mr. Yuan, this is my servant, Mr. Jiang Guo. He is talented and discerning, and is valued by His Majesty."
Since Yuan Junzhang intended to invite himself to the court, he naturally memorized the hero's genealogy. Knowing that this was Chen Shuda, the younger brother of Empress Chen, he quickly stepped forward to salute.
After a few words of greeting, Chen Shuda said with a smile: "Prime Minister Pei took the first step, but he didn't see Huairen for a long time. The palace people came to report that they had a private fight in the palace. Your Majesty ordered someone to come and take custody."
The palace guards over there had already sent Ashina Simo and Yu Gushe out. Li Shan glanced sideways and said disdainfully: "This officer said filthy words, thinking that I don't have the guts to take action here!"
"Don't be arrogant because of your favor." Chen Shuda frowned and reprimanded, "You are just causing trouble."
While talking, they arrived at the Liangyi Palace. Li Shan consciously stood behind Princess Pingyang... It was better for the third sister to explain in advance to save herself from being scolded by Li Yuan again.
Yuan Junzhang bowed and bowed, "I, Yuan Junzhang, pay my respects to Your Majesty."
"Mr. Yuan and I are old acquaintances. After calling each other several times, we finally meet again." Li Yuan smiled and personally took Yuan Junzhang's arms. "It's been a hard journey, but it doesn't hurt to sit still."
Yuan Junzhang declined repeatedly, claiming that he did not dare. His half-suspended heart finally dropped completely. He was so careless and the Emperor of Tang had such an attitude. As long as he didn't make any mistakes, just as Li Shanzhao said, he would enjoy wealth and have no worries for the rest of his life.
Li Shan glanced at it, but thought in his heart, I'm afraid it won't be easy for Yuan Junzhang to enjoy wealth and status. After all, his old army has nearly ten thousand people, and he has a choke point outside the Great Wall. Li Jiancheng wants to win over him, but Li Shimin will not win over him, but he will definitely not win over him. I don’t want the East Palace to win him over.
In fact, Li Shimin had already understood this idea through Ling Jing when he first returned to Beijing.
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road, whenever he encounters familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There was no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they were indifferent to everything.
To this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, there are also some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and he is expected to eventually become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possessing the memory of a previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppressing Division that were full of chills, the attic here seemed to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppressing Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, making him frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Demon-Suppressing Division.
