Chapter 188 Reaction of the Parties
The saint heard the words, looked at Zhang Xiaojing, nodded and said:
"I know! Zhang Xiaojing, recruited soldiers in the 13th year of the old calendar, served as a soldier of the Eighth Regiment of the Anxi Iron Army for ten years, returned to Chang'an in the 23rd year, and served as a bad commander for nine years. In Chang'an, he was known as... five Yamas!"

Liu Meng nodded when he heard the words, and said:
"So, saint, do you know why he was sent to death row?"

When the sage heard the words, there was regret in his eyes, and he said angrily:
"He killed dozens of people in the street, killed Shangguan, and even threatened my Yongwang, of course..."

Hearing this, Liu Meng knew that the old man was just a blinded ignorant person, so he interrupted him with a wave of his hand and said:

"This is the saint you believe! Let me ask, a soldier who has fought for the Tang Dynasty for ten years and never retreated; a bad commander who has devoted himself to handling cases in Chang'an City and maintaining Chang'an's long-term peace and order. Why does he want to kill people in the street?"

Sure enough, when the sage heard the words, he also showed a puzzled look on his face. Before he could ask, Liu Meng said:

"Wen Wuji returned to Chang'an, opened a spice shop, and lived a peaceful life for a few years! But, does the sage know? Your son and Lin Jiulang took advantage of the sage's decree to build an embassy for personal gain, and forcibly demolished his shop. .Old Wen went to reason with them, but was killed by your son's subordinates, the Xionghuo Gang."

Speaking of this, Liu Meng seemed to be too excited, and said in a slightly relieved tone:
"When Zhang Xiaojing came back from work, he saw Lao Wen died in front of him. The Xionghuo gang even came to bully Wen Wuji's daughter and forced her to hand over the house title deed. Zhang Xiaojing was so angry that he shot and killed dozens of Xionghuo gang members in the street. His superior But they colluded with King Yong, ignored Zhang Xiaojing's lawsuit, and wanted to expel Zhang Xiaojing from Chang'an."

Having said that, Liu Meng took a deep breath and continued:
"What Zhang Xiaojing could do, he had to kill Shangguan. He knew that his crime was unforgivable, and he could have escaped from Chang'an, but he was willing to go to death row. It was he who was worried that after the incident, King Yong would take advantage of his absence and kill Wen Ran. , I had no choice but to find King Yong and ask him to swear by his deceased mother that he would not trouble Wen Ran."

"But he agreed to King Yong's request, surrendered himself, and went to death row. This...is the whole story! Saint, do you want to see the heroes who guard the Great Tang shed blood and tears?"

After saying this, Liu Meng let out a long breath and fell silent.

In the carriage, there was a moment of silence, the sage lowered his head and was thinking about something.

Xiao Gui tilted his head, looking at the dark Chang'an street through the window of the carriage.

Yu Chang stared blankly at Zhang Xiaojing, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes.

Zhang Xiaojing's face was gloomy and numb, without a trace of regret.

At the same time, the right-hand party members were negotiating in the mansion.

Lin Jiulang sat at the head, and he had long since lost the frightened look he had when he was in Huae Tower.

Eyelids drooping slightly, the old god was watching the ministers below.

A minister looked at Lin Jiulang and said righteously:

"Congratulations to Prime Minister Right, the opportunity to take charge of the entire Tang Dynasty has come!"

Hearing this, Lin Jiulang suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the speaker, but he didn't stop him, motioning him to continue.

The minister continued:
"Master You Xiang, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! You Xiang is Datang Gu, stand up to clean up the mess, stabilize the overall situation, and take charge of Datang!"

After finishing speaking, the minister peeked at Lin Jiulang, and seeing that Lin Jiulang's expression hadn't changed much, he continued:

"If the sage comes back, the prince will still be trusted by the sage. My lord, we have to take this opportunity to do something! For example, take this opportunity to depose the prince and make King Yong the prince again!..."

Having said that, he paused and looked at the ministers behind him.

All the ministers understood instantly, and immediately clapped their hands together and said:

"My lord, take this opportunity to dethrone the crown prince, and appoint King Yong as the crown prince!"

Hearing this, Lin Jiulang stretched out his hand to stroke his beard in satisfaction, and agreed.

Tell everyone to go out to do their own business.

But he left behind his own steward, and ordered him to have people follow the crown prince Wei to wait for the opportunity to assassinate the saint, so as to realize the fact that the crown prince killed the king.

On the other side, the prince's subordinates persuaded Li Yu to take the opportunity to ascend the throne and inherit the Datong.

Li Yu suddenly remembered what Liu Meng said yesterday in the Jinglong Temple.

After a moment of hesitation, he forcibly suppressed the desire in his heart.

At this moment, outside the carriage, there was an announcement:

"Li Bi, Prime Minister of Jing'an Division, He Supervisor and Elder He will meet you!"

Hearing the sound, Li Yu was overjoyed immediately, and hastily raised the curtain of the carriage door, and welcomed Li Bi and He Lao into the carriage.

As soon as Li Bi got into the carriage, he said eagerly:
"His Royal Highness, don't do stupid things, and actively rescue the saints is the business!"

He Lao looked at Li Yu to see how Li Yu made a decision.

Hearing this, Li Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then said:

"Guzheng has this intention, Li Bi, please lead Donggong Wei to rescue the father as soon as possible!"

Hearing Li Yu's words, Li Bi secretly let out a sigh of relief, and took the order to leave.

Elder He also smiled, and gave Li Yu an appreciative glance.

In Yongwang's mansion, Yongwang received the ministers sent by Lin Jiulang, and heard that the right prime minister intended to support his ascension to the throne.

King Yong, who had no city mansion, was overjoyed immediately, and hurried out to find the general.If you want to come to the military power, you can prepare for your own ascension.

It's a pity, but he didn't know that the general was a loyal saint, and he was destined to return disappointed during this trip.

In the carriage of Liu Meng's people, after a while, the saint said:
"What you said is just a one-sided statement, which is not to be believed, but I will have people investigate this matter strictly in the future. If it is true, I will decree to pardon Zhang Xiaojing's capital crime!"

Liu Meng heard the words, but he didn't take it seriously, he knew that even if the sage found out the truth, King Yong would not suffer any loss.

The most, the most, is to kill everyone in the Xionghuo Gang and ground Yongwang.

After a while, Liu Meng said again:
"Saint, guess what your son, the minister, will do after you disappear?"

These words immediately aroused the interest of several people, and the sage said after thinking for a moment:
"My son will naturally try his best to find my whereabouts. The ministers should appease the officials and rescue me."

Hearing this, Liu Meng smiled disdainfully and said:

"Oh, saint! I have a different opinion than you, I guess:
The one who is most active in rescuing you is Guo Lishi; Prince Li Yu will cooperate with Guo Lishi to rescue you after some ideological struggle!As for your other son, King Yong, he will take the opportunity to be bewitched and fight for power; as for the person who bewitched him, it is Lin Jiulang who you entrusted with a heavy responsibility!As for Lin Jiulang, he would make people pretend to be the prince's subordinates, and when he saw the saint, he would shout, "Be loyal to the prince!" 'Assassination on you!Saint, do you believe it? "
