The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 270 Sending Pei Ji to Liangzhou

Chapter 270 Sending Pei Ji to Liangzhou

While the people were discussing, a group of guards set off from the palace.

All were wearing heavy armor, holding heavy iron spears, and even the horses were covered with pitch-black armor.

A murderous air emanated from them.

After seeing such elite soldiers, the people along the street were all frightened into cardiac arrest.

Everyone stared blankly at the group of soldiers.

It wasn't until the soldiers of the Xuanjia Army in heavy armor walked away that these soldiers just recovered.

"Sigh~~"

The common people couldn't help but gasped, discussing and saying: "Who is that person on the carriage!? You want the imperial guards to protect you!?"

"In my opinion, it must be a high-ranking minister in the court!"

"Maybe it's a certain prince or princess."

However, the common people could never guess that the carriage was empty at all.

In fact, this team is to escort Pei Ji and return home when he is old.

However, Changsun Wuji was afraid that it would be difficult for him to complete this arduous task, so he asked the team to set off early, deliberately attracting the attention of the Supreme Emperor.

In this way, even if there are killers on the road, some of them will hardly hurt Pei Ji's life.

As early as three days ago, Changsun Wuji had already sent people to transfer Pei Ji's family to the vicinity of Liangzhou.

In this way, even after Pei Ji retired and returned home, his family was threatened with life, he could still go to Liangzhou for help.

And now Pei Ji's house has been confiscated by the Holy Majesty, and all the money in the family has been confiscated... So now he is no different from a refugee...

After the Xuanjia Army led the team out of Chang'an City completely.

Only then did Changsun Wuji speak slowly, "Get ready to go!"

After the words fell, he was very reluctant to glance at the direction of Chang'an City.

After all, he didn't know whether anyone in Chang'an would compete with him for the position of prime minister after he left.

After all, those who seem harmless are often the most threatening.

After turning his head, Changsun Wuji smiled evilly, thinking in his heart: "I have repeatedly opposed the old man! This time the old man will send Pei Ji to Liangzhou!"

"From now on, if Pei Ji suddenly dies suddenly, it will no longer have anything to do with me!"

When thinking of this, Changsun Wuji seemed to be in a much happier mood.

At the same time, the messenger who was in charge of delivering the imperial decree had traveled for two days.

Finally arrived at the school of scholars of Shandong gentry.

After the local magistrate received the imperial edict, although he was very angry, he still summoned all the senior teachers from all the colleges.

"Now the Holy Majesty has issued a decree! All the scholars of the Shandong gentry are required to enter Chang'an City and temporarily live in the Imperial College. At that time, the Holy Majesty will set up a dinner to entertain you masters!"

After hearing the news of the imperial decree.

The gray-haired masters present all had smiles on their faces.

"Hahaha! The Holy Majesty ordered me to wait! It must be because of my talent!"

"Yes, yes! Maybe this opportunity can be appreciated by the Holy One! My disciples also have the opportunity to become officials in the court!"

"I'm already in my dying years, with yellow sand covering my eyes, I've already lost my life for a few years!"

"If you can see your disciples enter the court as officials in your lifetime, it will not be in vain!"

"Our gray hair is not the first, but all of our talents and learning can be regarded as being passed on to our disciples! If we can really enter the court and become an official in the future, we will definitely be able to carry forward our talents and learning!"

A group of old men were flushed with saliva, and everyone had a smile on their face.

However, after all, some people said inappropriately: "Hmph, in my opinion, this must be a conspiracy by the royal family!"

"Yes, that's right! From my point of view, he wants to gather us all in Chang'an City, so as to catch us all!"

"The royal family must want to use us to break the monopoly of the aristocratic family and work hard for the royal family!"

"Hmph, what a good idea! We are all disciples of Confucius, how can we work for that stupid king who killed his brother and forced his father!?"

"I want to go with you, I will definitely not go! Even if I violate the imperial decree, I will not hesitate!"

"That's right, I'm not going either! At worst, I'll just die!"

The magistrate here is also from the Shandong gentry, after hearing the words of these old men, he suddenly wanted to cry without tears.

If not all the scholars among the Shandong gentry were sent to Chang'an City.

I'm afraid no one in his family will be spared.

so.He could only plead with the group of old masters who didn't want to go: "If you don't go, masters! Wouldn't my Shandong gentry be destroyed!?"

"What's more, all the apprentices under the sect are extremely talented. If they die because of this, wouldn't it be a pity!"

"Hmph! So what if I get killed!?"

"That's right! Even if you die, you will definitely not work for that faint king!"

"I'm not waiting for those spineless people who say they don't go or don't go!"

"That stupid gentleman has such a good character, how can he deserve to let us go to the banquet!?"

Seeing this situation, the eunuch kept winking at other old masters who wanted to go to Chang'an City.

However, these people ignored the prefect directly, and had no intention of helping him at all.

Seeing this situation, the old eunuch who was in charge of announcing the imperial decree became even more ugly.

He directly squeezed his shrill voice, and said to the group of old masters in front of him: "You guys are so brave!"

"The sage issued a decree to let you enter the palace, and even set up a banquet to entertain you! Respect you are scholars, and respect you are the disciples of Confucius!"

"A group of stubborn people dare to disrespect the Holy Majesty! Don't be shameless!"

"Hmph! You eunuch, hurry back and tell that stupid king! I won't even set foot in Chang'an City!"

"That's right, hurry back and tell that stupid king that he is not worthy to be the emperor!"

"What a guts~~"

The old eunuch was angry, and his angry voice was even raised a bit.

He raised his orchid finger, pointed at the old masters in front of him and shouted sharply: "Come on! Bind up these stubborn old masters!"

"If it wasn't for the King of Beiliang's insistence on requesting His Majesty to reward the King of Beiliang for your stubbornness!"

"Do you still think that you are really a sweet potato!? It's just a group of old stubborn people who can't be educated!"

"Take them all away!"

A group of guards behind them immediately surrounded them and directly tied up these old masters with ropes.

When the eunuch saw that the old eunuch was tied up, his face turned pale from fright, and he begged the old eunuch for mercy, "Master is old! I can't stand this torture!"

"I also hope that the father-in-law can let the teacher go!"

"Bah! You villain, don't plead with this eunuch, even if this old man dies on the road! He will definitely not set foot in Chang'an City!"

"That's right! If the teacher dies, you, a villain, must take off this official uniform! Otherwise, even if the teacher becomes a ghost, you will never recognize you as a villain!"

However, the old eunuch seemed to have been prepared, and stretched out his orchid finger to cover his mouth.

Then there was a burst of tooth-piercing laughter: "Hey hey hey! Hey hey hey! Ouch~~ You stubborn old men are really just like what the King of Beiliang said!"

After saying this, the old eunuch took out a pure white porcelain bottle from his sleeve.
