Datang: Let you supervise the country and become an emperor through the ages

Chapter 76
The Dongying envoy to Tang thought that now is the past, and anyone in Chang'an can be arrogant.

So even after seeing so many soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, none of the envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty showed panic.

"Derenhao Palace, your good days are over!" As soon as Ma Zhou walked to the door, he heard someone talking nonsense inside, and he immediately knew who was shouting.

Derenhaogong knew Ma Zhou. He had seen Ma Zhou's ferocious appearance at Honglu Temple before. When he saw Ma Zhou now, he was suddenly startled and sobered up instantly.

"Ma Zhou, what are you trying to do?" Palace De Renhao already realized that something was wrong, but still pretended to be calm and shouted: "Did you hear that we missed your emperor and handed over your crimes, so you came here to kill people? ?”

Ma Zhou couldn't help shaking his head and sneered when he heard De Renhaogong's imaginary words, and seeing their stupid expressions.

"Only by you, are you worthy? I am the chief history of Honglu Temple. I was granted the title by His Majesty's imperial decree. Just based on your complaint, I want to dismiss this official. Let's make your spring and autumn dream come true."

"I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you. This time, I came to arrest you and others by order of His Majesty."

"You gang of envoys to the Tang Dynasty have acted recklessly on our land of the Tang Dynasty, and all kinds of crimes have piled up like a mountain. Everyone here will not escape today!"

"Come here, tie up all these guys, whoever dares to resist will be killed on the spot!"

With a wave of Ma Zhou's hand, the Tang soldiers and yamen servants, who could not hold back for a long time, came forward with shouts.

Dongying sent Tang envoys until now, thinking that they were just scaring them. Seeing the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty coming forward, they clamored to resist one by one, but they were thrown to the ground by three blows.

Seeing that something was wrong, Deren Haogong knew that Datang was here for real this time, and that he really wanted to investigate their past crimes, so he suddenly panicked.

"What does Your Majesty the Tang Dynasty want? We are envoys from Japan. According to the usual practice, even if we are guilty, we should not be judged by your Tang Dynasty, but should we be sent back to our country?"

"Are you still dreaming?" Ma Zhou sneered, and from De Renhaogong's tone of voice, he already knew that the other party was cowardly.

"What happened to you in Chang'an City, you don't know in your own mind, you still want to send you back to the country, go down and ask Lord Yan if he agrees!"

Hearing Ma Zhou's utter words, De Renhao Palace and the envoys sent to Tang Dynasty knew that they were in serious trouble.

"Emperor Tang, aren't you afraid of revenge from our Emperor Dongying? You can't do this to us, we protest!"

These envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty have already learned the latest knowledge in all aspects of the Tang Dynasty in Chang'an City.

This knowledge is of great use to Dongpu, and it has not been passed back to China. They must not be judged by Datang, otherwise they will never go back.

"Dongying, a small place, if you don't accept Wang Hua, then just destroy it!" Ma Zhou sneered, "You dare to speak nonsense, come on, I want to chop him up!"

When the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty heard the words, they rushed forward, adding swords and soldiers, and instantly chopped Derenhao Palace into meat paste.

Not long after, all the members of the Dongpu Mission, except those who were killed, were all tied up and held their heads down, and fell to their knees on the ground.

Ma Zhou didn't check the roster, and directly issued orders, "All those who are still alive will be imprisoned in death row and wait to be punished. Immediately, the entire Chang'an City will be searched. All Dongying envoys sent to the Tang Dynasty will be arrested in the prison of Honglu Temple. Anyone who encounters resistance will be killed." Forgiveness, confiscated property!"

"Yes, my lord!" The yamen servants immediately acted upon receiving Ma Zhou's order, and the Tang envoys in Chang'an City suddenly fell into despair.

On the second day, the news that all the Dongying envoys to Tang had been arrested spread throughout Chang'an City.

The people in Chang'an were all shocked. After the shock, they cheered happily.

"Well done, as it should be, Your Majesty is mighty, the Crown Prince is mighty, Honglu Temple is mighty!"

"Those bastards should have died a long time ago, and all those who were caught should be killed!"

"Whoever says it's not, let those bastards come in, it's like luring wolves into the house, the court didn't act until now, alas, what a crime!"

"Don't talk about the past, it's not too late to kill those bastards now, walk around, I didn't see the beheading last time, so I must not miss it this time!"

The common people applauded one-sidedly. It can be seen that Dongying sent Tang envoys to Chang'an City, just like rats crossing the street. No one would welcome them.

In the palace, Li Shimin held a grand triumphant ceremony for British Prince Li Ji.

When it came to the court, all the civil and military officials were discussing, but it was not about the triumph of the Northland, but about the arrest of Dongying's envoy to the Tang Dynasty.

"Hey, have you heard that? Last night, the entire Chang'an city went crazy. The guards of the East Palace, the servants of the Honglu Temple and the Jingzhao Mansion even dispatched the frontier army who had just returned from the Northland, and arrested a few of them. People of the night!"

"I heard that the Ministry of War and Honglu Temple actually acted together. This is really the first time in history!"

"The crown prince is still very powerful. With Tiance Mansion and Honglu Temple in his hands, he can even mobilize Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of War. That's amazing!"

"However, I heard that the Changshi from Honglu Temple is the one who does things. It's really amazing. From Master Bo to Changshi, he has been promoted more than ten levels in a row!"

"Otherwise, it is said that there is a future to follow the prince, and he has the right to start a mansion, as long as he likes it, can he not?"

"Look, look, isn't that the chief history of Honglu Temple, what's his name, yes, Ma Zhou!"

When Ma Zhou walked slowly into the hall, almost all civil and military officials cast their eyes on him.

This was Ma Zhou's first time to participate in the morning court, and he was surprised by everything he saw. When he noticed the gazes directed at him, he subconsciously nodded in return.

When Jing Zhaoyin Lu Tingfang saw Ma Zhou, he immediately leaned over to get close to him, "Old Ma, you can do this. If we don't see each other for a few days, you will soon become my superior!"

Hearing this, Ma Zhou had a subtle smile on his face. Of course he knew that this was not a polite word. Now he is also a fourth-rank official and the second child of Honglu Temple. Although Lu Tingfang is the boss of Jingzhao Mansion, they are already on the same level in terms of rank. .

"Old Ma, from now on, you have to give me a few words of kindness in front of the prince. How can I say that I didn't treat you badly in Jingzhao Mansion, didn't I..."

Ma Zhou also understood the tricks in the officialdom. After all, it was impossible for everyone to carry the bridal sedan chair by himself.

"Master Lu was just joking, if there is something useful in the future, just open your mouth!"

"Don't call Master Lu, I'll call you Brother Lu if I'm older than you, and call Master Lu to worry about you..."

Just as he and Lu Ting were making a fuss, Li Fu walked over with a yawn, looking at Ma Zhou's cautious appearance, but Li Fu couldn't see it, so he dragged Ma Zhou to him.

Ma Zhou was taken aback, seeing that it was the prince, he could only apologize and smiled at Lu Tingfang.

Lu Tingfang shrank his neck, gave Ma Yiyi a hand, smiled flatteringly at Li Fu, and ran away.
