Zhenguo General's Mansion.
Li Baiyi almost jumped out of the carriage. He rushed all the way to the back house. There was no light in the study, and he poked half of his head out furtively. There was no one in his room.
It seems that dad is not here.
"Shhhhhh!"
Lao Huang's shriveled face twitched and he pointed at the back of Li Baiyi.
"not good!"
Li Baiyi's scalp was numb and he was about to run away when a rope as thick as his arm came towards him and tied him up directly.
Tie the thief buckle!
When Li Xiao was still a soldier, he kidnapped the emperor like this. No, the emperor was not the emperor at that time, but a prince's vanguard officer who went 800 miles deep into the enemy's territory.
He would rather die than retreat. He was tied to Li Xiao's shoulders and carried the emperor. He was surrounded by enemy troops, entering and exiting seven times!
Also because of that time.
A battle! Become famous!
"Hi, Dad, are you back?"
Li Baiyi was trembling in his heart. He put on a smile, and his expression changed so quickly that no one could match it.
"snort!"
The person standing in front of Li Baiyi was none other than Li Xiao. He was tall and had a resolute face. Compared with Li Baiyi, who had a feminine face, except for his similar nose, the rest looked nothing like him.
"Dad, if you have something to say, it's easy to say it. The child's body is delicate. When the time comes, he will be tied up three times and two times. If the tie is broken, you will feel sorry for him."
Li Xiao was even more angry when he saw his son's glib look. It was because he indulged this boy so much that he dared to get into trouble repeatedly.
"You brat! Tell me! I sent you to study in the Imperial College, and you skipped classes for half a year and three months! Do you have to have me tie you up in the school before you are willing to be honest and obedient?!"
call!
Li Baiyi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he was talking about skipping classes. Mr. Zhu must have come to complain. He kept saying, "I am willing to learn and I will never skip classes again! Good dad, please let me go." !”
"snort!"
Li Xiao frowned and said doubtfully, "You came back so late today, and you were in a panic just now. Did you get into trouble again?"
"Uh...that...that...no..."
"If you don't tell the truth, just keep being chained to me!"
Li Xiao's eyelids were beating wildly, and he had an ominous premonition.
"Ahem!"
Li Baiyi said cautiously, "I slapped the youngest son of Tang En, the Minister of Rites, Tang Gongyue... five slaps... ten slaps, or more than ten slaps, I can't remember clearly..."
you!
Li Xiao's eyes widened in anger, "Tang En, the Minister of Rites, is the most sharp-tongued old scholar among those civil servants! I have been avoiding him recently, for fear that he will find an opportunity to say bad things about me!"
"You beat his son and slapped him more than a dozen times. Didn't you deliberately give him a leg up so that he could impeach me for committing crimes and taking credit for his own arrogance?"
spendthrift!
Li Xiaoqi's ears were almost filled with smoke. He and the emperor were brothers and sisters, and he was an old minister of Conglong who actually helped the emperor to sit on the throne!
He doesn't want to embarrass the emperor!
But those civilian officials have always wanted to seize power from their own hands. They keep saying that civilian officials should take control of the military. All generals should lead the troops when there is a war, and after the war, take back power to civilian officials.
What's more, civil servants have to set up a large number of supervisory troops to accompany them in battles.
You bunch of weak scholars know nothing about fighting? ? ?
"Um, Dad, and... I attacked Tang En's second son, Tang Muqi from the Beijing Patrol Camp, in the street, and even made him lose face in front of the brothel girls..."
"Capital patrol camp?"
Li Xiao felt something in his heart, and he breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, okay, if it's just a dispute of words, it's nothing. It's just that Tang Muqi is also Tang En's son, which is a bit troublesome... and in a brothel... …”
"etc!"
Li Xiao's face froze, "What did you say, a brothel? Did you go to a brothel?"
"……right."
Li Baiyi knew that he couldn't hide this matter, so he forced himself to apologize and said with a smile, "I am in a brothel, and I am in the same room with the oiran, I..."
Treason! Treason!
Li Xiao almost lost his breath. He was so heartbroken by the successive blows that he raised his hand and was about to hit him. When the time came, he couldn't bear it anymore and could only pace back and forth in the room angrily.
He hates that iron cannot become steel.
"You traitor! No matter how much of a bastard you are, you should know that you and Princess Ronghua are engaged, yet you still dare to hang out in a brothel? Did you know! Did you know!"
"Do you know what consequences this will have for our Zhenguo General's Mansion???"
Li Baiyi knew that his father still doted on him, and for this reason, he was not willing to beat him.
He also knew how serious the consequences of this incident were in his past life memory.
The General's Mansion has lost all face!
Princess Ronghua breaks off her engagement!
The emperor is furious!
The General's Mansion is in ruins!
Each of these things really happened in the previous life, but my current self is completely different, and this kind of thing will never happen again.
"Dad."
Li Baiyi said slowly, "To catch a thief, you need to get the stolen goods, and to catch an adulterer, you need to be in bed. I, the Tang brothers, have not found any evidence."
"Besides, this matter was originally done by the Tang brothers to plot against me!"
Bureau? ? ?
The corners of Li Xiao's eyes twitched, and the movements in his hands stopped. "Are you sure you didn't leave any evidence?"
Men, do things!
The key is, as long as no one takes advantage of it, it's fine.
"Yeah!"
Li Xiaohan said in a loud voice, "In other words, Tang En wants to use this matter to crucify us two on the pillar of shame! Want to bring down our Li family?"
"Ha! I haven't killed anyone in a while. Cats and dogs dare to climb on the head of the general's mansion and urinate!"
Li Baiyi also looked cold.
There was a pause.
Li Xiao looked at Li Baiyi and sighed, this brat has grown up, and I am worthy of his mother!
If someone catches him in a brothel and gets irrefutable evidence, it will definitely be difficult for him to stand up in the General's Palace. Even if he defends his stupid son to the death, he will probably be charged with deceiving the emperor.
Until then……
Tang En, Tang En, you are so poisonous, are you trying to kill me? Good, good, good!
Li Baiyi looked at Li Xiao. He could feel that his father's murderous intention could no longer be suppressed. "Dad, do you plan to strike first?"
Li Xiao snapped his fingers: "Smart!"
The man surnamed Tang just wanted to trouble him every day, but he still dared to plot against his son. How could he have gone through with this?
no way!
Li Baiyi wailed: "I know, you must be kidnapping me into the palace, I don't want to go!"
Concubine Xi in this palace grew up holding Li Baiyi in her arms. If she knew that he was naughty, she would definitely not be able to spare him.
Li Xiao showed the same smile as Li Baiyi and grinned, "You kid, you can't run away!"
"Are you my biological father? Are you so cruel?"
…
It's late at night.
But in the Hall of Nourishing Heart, the lights are brightly lit.
Emperor Xuanfeng of Huai'an held his eyebrows with one hand, his eyes full of tiredness, and the tea cup in his hand shook slightly.
In the main hall, more than a dozen civil servants were arguing endlessly.
The Beiyuan delegation will arrive in the capital soon.
They want to get married!
The prince of Beiyuan wants to marry Princess Ronghua!
Moreover, there will be a literary competition with the Dakun Dynasty to see who is the true disciple of the saint between the two countries.
Five years ago, the Beiyuan Kingdom raided the Dakun border fortress and was defeated by the general Li Xiao. They broke through three cities and concluded a peace treaty for ten years.
But the Beiyuan thief was determined to overpower Dakun.
If you can't do it with force, then use literature!
Therefore, this literary struggle is related to the face of the Dakun Dynasty.
"Your Majesty! You have to make the decision for me!"
At this moment, outside the Yangxin Hall, Tang En, the Minister of Rites, knelt on the ground and crawled into the hall.
In full view.
Everyone was stunned. What does this mean?
Tang En was wrapped in white cloth and cried bitterly, "Chen! Chen's son Tang Gongyue is dead!!!"
