Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

"I dare!"

The silver light suddenly appeared and passed by in a flash.

After the sound fell, the knife fell in his hand, Hou Junji's body was separated, a big head disappeared, and he started rolling on the ground.

His head flew forward and landed in front of Li Jing's horse. Hou Junji's expression was grim, and he didn't know how he lost his life until he died.

After Li Jing glanced at Hou Junji's head on the ground, he slowly raised his eyes to look at the position where he rode his horse just now. The headless corpse had already fallen from the horse.

And the person who suddenly cut off Hou Junji's head was his left lieutenant Xu Xiangbiao.

Holding the steel knife in both hands, Xu Xiangbiao looked at the headless corpse on the ground with a look of fear on his face. His body trembled and he murmured tremblingly: "I dare to kill you, you traitor. I dare to kill you, I dare to kill you ..."

puff~

Right lieutenant Zheng Baozhong suddenly jumped off his horse, knelt on the ground and cupped his hands at Li Jingyao: "Old man, we have been deceived by Lu Guogong so that we don't know loyalty, treachery, good and evil, and please show me a clear way. "

As soon as Zheng Baozhong made his statement, the other six lieutenants fell off their horses and knelt down one after another, shouting in their mouths: "I will swear allegiance to the Emperor of Tang Dynasty to the death, and may Duke Wei be punished lightly!"

"Those who know the times are Junjie!"

Li Jing threw the horse in his hand and threw it to Helan Qiaoshan beside him, and then slowly rode up to the crowd, nodded and praised: "Xu Xiangbiao, Zheng Baozhong, you two should have been with me during the Luoyang battle. Have you worked hard under the account? If the old man remembers correctly, the two of you were just little Captain Zhiguo at that time, right?"

At this time Xu Xiangbiao calmed down from his fear, turned over and fell off the horse and knelt in front of Li Jing, choked up and said, "Does the old man still remember his subordinates?"

Zheng Baozhong also said excitedly: "Old Commander, I have been following Duke Lu all these years. Soldiers regard obedience as their bounden duty. Alas...Old Commander, the subordinates have realized their mistake!"

"That's all, I think the two of you didn't make a big mistake, the reason is forgivable. And the six of you—"

Li Jing waved his hands and said: "Get up, everyone, if you can turn against each other at a critical moment, it's just a way to pay off your merits."

shuh~

The eight people present got up from the ground at the same time, clasped their hands together and said in unison: "Thank you, Duke Wei!"

Li Jing smiled, beckoned Helan Qiaoshan over, and ordered: "General He Lan, you will also be in charge of the right Jinwuwei general for the time being. At this very opportunity, you will command the left and right Jinwuwei guards stationed in Chang'an Outside the city, the imperial capital is in danger. Do you understand?"

He Lanqiaoshan's face was filled with joy, and he thought in his heart that he was lucky, it seemed that this move was right.

Immediately, he clasped his hands and said loudly: "The last general takes orders!"

Li Jing hummed, and then confessed to Xu Xiangbiao and the others: "From now on, you will obey the orders of General He Lan for the time being, and you must not disobey the orders, do you understand?"

"Here!"

After the catastrophe, everyone escaped the fate of being implicated by Hou Junji for the rest of their lives, so they naturally obeyed in every possible way.

After Li Jing finished his explanation, he took Ma Li from Helan Qiaoshan, and then slowly walked up to Hou Junji's head, sighing with some regret: "You are to blame for everything, no one else! Hou Junji, if your heart is not right, what can you do if you are talented?"

Afterwards, he leaned over and picked up Hou Junji's head from the ground, got on his horse and galloped back towards the east gate of Chang'an, entering the city.

After a short time, he entered the city, but Li Jing didn't stop, but went straight to Zhuque Gate, and went to the palace.

After about half a cup of tea, Li Jing entered the palace and went straight to the Qinzheng Hall.

At this time, the court has not yet dispersed, and Guo Ye is confronting the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, who is above the Dragon Court.

Before Li Jingren entered, he swung his right hand violently, threw Hou Junji's head into the hall, and shouted: "Hou Junji has already subdued the law, Guo Ye, how long are you going to hang around?"

The head suddenly fell into the court hall, and a group of timid civil servants were frightened into an uproar.

After seeing Li Yuan on the Dragon Court, his face was even more ashamed, and then he closed his eyes and sighed in his heart, the situation was over, the last chance was cut off, and the drama had come to an end.

Guo Ye heard Li Jing's call, and knew that the outside of the city had been taken care of by Li Jing.

Secretly envious in my heart, damn it, it's really the shadow of a famous tree, Li Jing alone took care of tens of thousands of soldiers outside the city without bloodshed, his personal charm has been brought to the extreme.When will we be able to mention the word Guo Ye, and we will be able to respond to everyone, oh no, everyone will respond to it?

Immediately, Guo Ye rushed to the hundreds of soldiers in the palace and shouted: "All officers and men listen to the order and take the Supreme Emperor back to Yequan Palace for the time being, and keep him under strict supervision. He will be released after we welcome Shengjia back to Chang'an."

"Embrace the prince Chengqian back to the Prince's Mansion, and take care of all the people in the Prince's Mansion, and wait for His Majesty to send them out in person."

After escorting Li Yuan and Li Chengqian down, Guo Ye glanced at King Lu and the others who were knocked to the ground, and continued to shout: "King Lu, King Jing..."

"Boy Guo, wait a minute!"

Li Jing walked up to Guo Ye, interrupted his treatment of King Lu and the three, and whispered in his ear: "Did you forget the emperor's oral order? He regards you as a sharp knife in his hand. You can't play tricks at this time."

Guo Ye frowned, suddenly vigilant in his heart, and thought to himself, Li Jing is right, if he doesn't use the knife for His Majesty Li Er, it will be difficult to make a deal, otherwise it will not be good if he sells favors in the end.

Immediately, he hurriedly changed his words: "Lu Wang Li Yuanqing, Jing Wang Li Yuanxiang, and Dao Xiao Wang Li Yuanfang conspired to rebel, and they should be punished for their crimes. Come, take them to the Meridian Gate, and behead them for public display, so as to reduce the impact!"

"Hey~!"

The soldiers leading the guards were all rough men, so they dragged the three of them out of the hall and towards the Meridian Gate regardless of the three of them crying and shouting.

Guo Ye rushed to Wei Zheng and Wei Ting and said with a smile, "The Minister of the Ministry of Labor and Punishments and the Adviser Doctor are both involved, so go to the Meridian Gate to be executed in person!"

Naturally, Guo Ye was not aimless, and he didn't hold back his fart. He couldn't let himself be cursed and blamed alone.

Wei Zheng and Wei Ting were taken aback for a moment, obviously feeling that Guo Ye was overreaching.In terms of rank, Guo Ye has absolutely no right to command and move the two of them to do things.

Upon seeing this, Li Jing immediately added: "The emperor ordered me before leaving. I ordered the old man, Guo Ye, the Duke of Pingyang County, and Kong Yingda, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, to temporarily act as government officials. After he returns to Beijing, he will come to the court to handle government affairs in person. "

As he spoke, Li Jing took out the secret decree from His Majesty Li Er, walked up to Wei Zheng and the two, and handed it over.

After Wei Zheng and Wei Ting took it over and looked at it, they clapped their hands and replied one by one: "I'm waiting for orders!"

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the court hall happily.

At this time, everyone in the court heard Li Jing's words, saw the performance of Wei Zheng and the two men, and knew a trend in their hearts, that is, among the ministers acting as the interim government, both Kong Yingda and Guo Ye came from the Qingliu School of Shilin.

Obviously, after Shengjia returned to Beijing, the spring of Shilin Qingliu Department will come!

All of a sudden, as a member of the Qingliu Department of Shilin, their faces are all radiant and full of spring.

Kong Yingda walked slowly between Guo Ye and Li Jing, pointed at Changsun Wuji, who was captured by the soldiers, and a group of officials from the Tiance Mansion behind him who just voted to surrender to the Supreme Emperor, and asked the two: "My lords, How to deal with this eldest grandson Wuji and those second ministers?"

Speaking of this, he deliberately lowered his voice, and muttered softly: "In terms of crimes, the eldest grandson Wuji should be punished, and the vassal ministers should also be executed. But they can't be killed, otherwise, the officialdom will be in turmoil!"

Li Jing frowned upon hearing this, and fell into deep thought.

As for Guo Ye, his eyes kept rolling, as if thinking of something.

Chapter 1024

There is something in Kong Yingda's words, but Guo Ye is a person who knows the smell of a fart when he hears it. It seems that he has understood Kong Yingda's implication.

He glanced at Li Jing, and found that the old man was still standing still, still looking down in thought, as if he was still wondering what Kong Yingda meant by what he said.
