Bring Hokage to Datang

Wannian County Government!

When Li Chengming arrived, the entire county government office had been surrounded by the soldiers brought by Xue Wanche. The surrounding lights were brightly lit, making the surrounding area look like daylight. net

Outside the county government office, there were several government officials wearing government uniforms, all kneeling on the ground with their hands tied behind their backs.

Li Chengming came riding a horse with Luo Ning. There was nothing he could do. He was still just a child and was not tall enough to ride a horse, so he had to ride with others.

However, to be honest, Li Chengming felt that the horse was really uncomfortable to ride. As the horse ran, his legs were probably turning red against the saddle. It was worse than the experience of riding a pig and a hyena. If it weren't for nothing, he Would rather walk.

After seeing the county government, Li Chengming pressed his hand directly and jumped off the horse neatly.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Wang Wen, a humble official!" Seeing Li Chengming being escorted by guards, a middle-aged man with a scar on his left face hurriedly came over to pay homage.

Li Chengming glanced at the middle-aged man and remembered that he was one of the men that Xue Wanche had led to escape into Nanshan, and he could also be regarded as Xue Wanche's confidant.

"Get up!" Li Chengming said lightly, then looked at the county government office and said, "How is the situation inside now?"

"Back to Your Highness, General Xue has led people to control the Wannian County magistrate in the county government, and also sent people to arrest the Wannian County magistrate, county lieutenant and others. I think there will be news soon. Yes." Wang Wenxian immediately replied respectfully.

Hearing Wang Wenxian's answer, Li Chengming nodded slightly, and then said, "You continue to guard here, I will go in and take a look!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Li Chengming ignored these people and walked into the county office of Wannian County under the escort of Luo Ning and others. 35xs

Walking in from the gate of the county government office, there is an open courtyard inside, with two rows of wing rooms on the left and right, and a courtyard paved with bluestones in the middle. In the middle of the courtyard is a stone tablet about one foot high. There are three big characters written on the front - Gong Sheng Ming!

After crossing the stone monument and looking back, we can see three big characters after the stone monument - Lian Shengwei!

Then, after walking through the courtyard, you can see a large hall in front, with a gilt-gold plaque hanging in the center, and three characters written on it - Qinmin Hall!

Of course, this Qinmin Hall is not a charity hall. This is the lobby of the county government. Well, this is where you usually see the officials interrogating cases on TV. In the middle of the lobby, there will be some "mirror hanging high", Plaques like "Self-denial and devotion to public service".

However, at this time, the place was already occupied by soldiers wearing armor. The blazing torches illuminated the entire county government hall. A middle-aged man in white trousers fell down with his hands tied behind his back. On the ground, there was a big man wearing armor standing next to him. Who could it be if it wasn't Xue Wanche?

One of the guards saw Li Chengming coming in, and quickly walked over to report to Xue Wanche. Then Xue Wanche ignored the middle-aged man who fell on the ground, hurriedly walked out of the lobby, clasped his fists and bowed, "See your highness!"

"Excuse me, Xue Wanche, what's going on here?" Li Chengming waved his hand and asked calmly. net

"Back to Your Highness, the general has taken control of the entire county government of Wannian County and captured the county magistrate Li Hongdao. He is the elder brother of You Governor Shi Li Xuandao and the nephew of Fang Xuanling. At the same time, the general also sent people We went to arrest the county magistrate and county lieutenant of Wannian County. I think there will be news soon." Xue Wanche bowed.

"Oh?! Fang Xuanling's nephew?" After hearing Xue Wanche's words, Li Chengming became a little interested.

Who is Fang Xuanling? He was the prime minister who left his name in the Zhenguan period. Zhongfang Mou, known as "Fang Mou Duo", was one of Li Shimin's staff. It is said that there was no Fang Xuanling in the Xuanwu Gate incident. Li Chengming didn’t believe in the plan.

"Let's go in with me and take a look!" Li Chengming raised the corner of his mouth, then took the lead and walked into the lobby.

The middle-aged man with disheveled hair, wearing only a white undershirt, who had obviously been taken out of bed, couldn't help but feel a look of surprise on his face when he saw Li Chengming walking in first, especially when he saw Xue Wanche and the guards behind him.

"Are you Li Hongdao, Fang Xuanling's nephew?" Li Chengming walked directly in front of Li Hongdao and looked at the middle-aged man with disheveled hair and a messy appearance. No, perhaps it is more accurate to say that he is a young man, but this man has three left A wisp of beard makes him look older.

The ancients valued a hairless mouth and poor performance. It is precisely because of this that many people began to keep beards from their youth.

In Li Chengming's opinion, Li Hongdao in front of him was only around or years old.

Looking at Li Chengming in front of him, Li Hongdao was full of surprise, because Li Chengming looked too young, but he had an awe-inspiring and majestic aura, especially when he saw Xue Wanche being respectful in front of him, Li Hongdao Guessing that this person must have an extraordinary identity, he suppressed the panic in his heart and said, "I am Li Hongdao, the magistrate of Wannian County. Who are you? It can be seen that leading troops to break into the government office without permission is a crime of conspiracy. !"

"You are so arrogant, Li Hongdao. How dare you be so arrogant when you are about to die?" Your Highness, why don’t you quickly bow your head and plead guilty?”

"Prince of Runan County?!" Zhang Hongdao couldn't help but shrink his pupils after hearing Xue Wanche's words.

Wannian County is less than a hundred miles away from Chang'an. Chang'an's city gates have been suddenly closed since yesterday. As the magistrate of Wannian County, how could Li Hongdao not know about it.

Moreover, as Fang Xuanling's nephew, Li Hongdao actually knew more than others, because he once followed Fang Xuanling to visit the King of Qin Li Shimin, and he was regarded as Li Shimin's subordinate. He held the position of Wannian County Magistrate. It was King Qin who asked for it for him.

A few days ago, he had received a secret message from Fang Xuanling, saying that King Qin would launch a palace coup and asked him to be prepared in the county. If anything unexpected happened, he would be needed to help King Qin escape from Chang'an.

After knowing that the city gate of Chang'an was closed, Li Hongdao knew that something big had happened in Chang'an City, and it was possible that King Qin's real palace had changed.

Unfortunately, since the city gates of Chang'an were closed yesterday and no one was allowed in or out, he has not been able to find out any information about Chang'an, nor does he know what the current situation is in Chang'an.

When he met Xue Wanche, Li Hongdao was still panicking, thinking that the King of Qin had failed, that his support for the King of Qin had been exposed, and that Xue Wanche was here to arrest him.

However, after meeting Li Chengming, Li Hongdao suddenly felt hope and ecstasy in his heart.

Could it be that King Qin really succeeded in his palace transformation?

Otherwise, if King Qin is defeated and he is exposed, the court does not need to send Xue Wanche to arrest him at all. He only needs to casually issue orders and two more soldiers. As a scholar, he does not dare to resist.

What's more, as the son of the crown prince, how could the king of Runan County condescend to a mere county magistrate and come in the middle of the night just to arrest him?

There are various signs that King Qin may have succeeded in his palace transformation!

Li Chengming, who was standing aside, had been observing Li Hongdao when he saw him. After hearing Xue Wanche's introduction to him, Li Hongdao was first surprised, and then his face showed a look of ecstasy involuntarily, and the corners of his mouth raised. , suddenly sneered and said, "It seems that you have indeed participated in Li Shimin's rebellion!"
