Tang's dining table

When Yun Chu first came to Chang'an, Chang'an was still dominated by rogue men and women.

The male thugs dozed, slept, farted, cursed, and beat people in the court hall.

The female thugs are no exception. They quarrel, curse, and are diligent in catching rapes. Sometimes they even go through the market in groups with their faces on.

Li Xiaogong died early and the children were still young. His wife, Murong, relied on her rogue skills to ensure that the reputation of the Prince Zhao Palace was preserved.

He is the most powerful person in the Chang'an Widow Gang.

In fact, by the time of Li Zhi, this group of female naughty women had restrained themselves a lot. I think back then, when Queen Wende was still there, they dared to ride topless and play on the polo field. The main thing was that they were tough.

Over the years, as the male gangsters gradually died, the female gangsters gradually became more restrained. Emperor Taizong could tolerate their lawlessness because polo itself was promoted by Emperor Taizong in order to cultivate the martial arts of men and women in the Tang Dynasty. Taizong The emperor was happy to see all the tough Tang people.

Li Zhi failed. He felt that such behavior was no different from that of a savage and was an insult to the Splendid Tang Dynasty.

Murong was already tall, and the way she held her horse was impressive. Seeing that she looked like a mad tiger, Yun Chu turned over from the railing and stepped on the Danqi with one foot. In an instant, the body flew to the bluestone lantern tower.

Murong pointed at Yun Chu across the corridor and cursed: "If you don't have the ability to kill the enemy, just use your own people to count. What kind of general are you?"

Yun Chu said: "You old shrew, you don't know the heart of a good person. I helped you keep the wealth of your Prince Zhao's palace for a lifetime, how can you repay kindness with enmity?"

"Fart, you killed my son, and you said it was for the good of my Duke Zhao's house. Come on, let your son come over, let the old woman kill him, and do it for the good of your Lantian County Prince's house."

Yun Chu said: "You actually want to trade your pigs and dogs for my Qilin'er, in a dream."

Murong struggled to throw the horse in his hand.

Yunchu caught it with one hand, looked up and down at the hemp rope in his hand, which had become fluffy because it had not been oiled for a long time, and sighed: "What a pity."

Just when Yun Chu looked at the horse in his hand, he was already surrounded by a hundred women on the bluestone lantern tower. Yun Chu looked down from above and saw a thicket of women's heads.

The most terrible thing is that all the women yelled at him, and a few tough ones even spat at him. Yun Chu waved his horse in annoyance. Instead of retreating, those women stretched their necks and leaned forward, claiming that Yun Chu If I didn't kill them today, they wouldn't be raised by humans.

Li Zhi took the telescope away from his eyes and said to Wu Mei: "It's too much. Disperse the people."

Wu Mei picked up the telescope and looked at it in fascination. When the emperor said this, she smiled and said: "The more you scold, the less hatred you will have."

Li Zhi said: "Disperse quickly, otherwise someone will be killed soon."

Wu Mei said: "He wouldn't dare to kill someone because of Yunchu's bearded heart and leopard's courage."

Li Zhi said angrily: "Yunchu doesn't dare. Later, Mr. Yu will bring An Ding and the others over. Let's see if they dare."

Wu Mei's eyelids twitched, and she hurriedly returned the telescope to Li Zhi and said, "It's too late."

Li Zhi took the telescope and looked in the direction of Wu Mei's finger. He saw two terrifying and ferocious centipedes appearing on the huge sundial at the entrance of the palace. These two centipedes were entangled on the sundial and decorated the entire sundial. furry.

Li Zhi could even see the black fangs at the front of the centipede opening and closing.

Immediately afterwards, two giant centipedes climbed down the dragon column of the sundial, crawling towards the crowds of people as quickly as the wind.

Li Zhi threw away the telescope and said to Wu Mei: "Send someone to tell An Ding that no one is allowed to die."

Yunchu also saw centipedes crawling on the ground, and his originally swollen head gradually became clear.

Watching a centipede climb up the railing along the Danqi, and then take advantage of the excitement of Murong's cursing, climb up Murong's legs, and finally turn into a furry scarf wrapped around Murong's neck, waiting for the head to follow When Murong's eyes were in one direction, he suddenly raised his head and faced Murong directly with his ferocious big head.

Murong's eyes turned white, and he was about to fall backwards with a grunt. Wen Wen, who was watching the excitement, was afraid that the old Qianpo would fall to death, so he kicked a woman, so that the fat woman lay right behind Murong. It became a meat pad.

The other centipede was also very busy, wandering around in the crowd, but wherever the centipede went, the women who were a little crazy at first became quiet. Many of them fainted, and most of them were scared to the point of peeing.

Yunchu couldn't help standing on the lamp tower and watching the ugly behavior of a group of women, so he tapped the horse on the ground. When the horse was bent downward by the pressure of his body, he pressed it harder again, and finally the horse was stretched straight. He jumped out of the crowd.

Yun Chu said to Yu Xiurong, Li Si and Yun Jin who were all dressed in polo attire: "Naha didn't come?"

Yu Xiurong said: "I was stopped by the prince, but I'll be here soon."

Yun Chu nodded, followed by Wen Wen and Di Renjie and left the imperial city.

Yu Xiurong looked at the large group of women frozen in place and said to Li Si and Yun Jin: "They are all bitches, don't let any of them go."

"The poisonous dragon has a lot of venom and can bite a few more people."

"Don't use poisonous dragons. Women should use women's things." Yun Jin turned over her hand and took out a two-inch-long quilt needle.

Wu Mei looked at the timid Nanny Chun and said, "Didn't I ask you to stop the Yu family?"

Aunt Chun said quickly: "Ms. Yu wants me to shut up, or else she'll beat me up too. Queen, let's just leave it alone."

Wu Mei looked at Aunt Chun coldly.

Aunt Chun quickly replied: "I found that among the women outside, except for the Princess of Zhao County, none of them were official wives with dignity. I caught a few and asked them, and found that the women there were not concubines. , that’s the grandma at home.”

When Wu Mei heard this, she looked at the emperor and said, "Who wants to harm Princess Zhaojun?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "It seems that this is what the people want."

Wu Mei smiled and said: "I thought he was a mature person, but I didn't expect that he turned out to be a straw bag."

Li Zhi nodded and said: "I originally thought I could win some more titles, but I didn't expect that only the Princess of Zhao County was fooled. I'm really surprised. How could such a great person like Li Xiaogong have such a wife and descendants?" ?”

Wu Mei said: "It seems that it's time for those elderly princes to clean up."

Li Zhi said: "Returning the title to its original form is the best policy."

Wu Mei said: "Yun Chu only said that the fiefdom was not good, why didn't he talk about the demotion of the title?"

Li Zhi said: "If you are not a noble of the Li family, the highest prince in the future will be a marquis, and it will not exceed the number on the Lingyan Pavilion list. He has taken advantage of the boss, so what else can he say?"

Wu Mei nodded and said: "Since Li Xiaogong's title has been taken away, can your Majesty..."

Li Zhi shook his head and said, "The Wu brothers are not worthy yet."

Wu Mei sighed and said: "The twenty-four titles will not increase or decrease. There will definitely be twenty-four forces in the future. Your Majesty is drinking poison to quench your thirst. Your Majesty must not forget the past events of the Eight Pillar Kingdom."

Li Zhi said: "No increase, no decrease, refers to the number twenty-four. The content inside can be changed at any time. The Tang Dynasty cannot just rely on the power of the Li family to gather the twenty-four nobles and live in Chang'an and Luoyang.

If the royal family lives in Chang'an, then Chang'an will be victorious; if the royal family lives in Luoyang, then Luoyang will be strong. "

Yun Chu and the others walked out of the imperial city, mounted their horses and went straight to the Wu brothers' mansion in Luoyang.

Seeing the ruins along the way, he said softly: "You have been demoted this time. Why do you seem to be in a good mood?"

Yun Chu said: "The emperor is still restricting the title of nobility. The title of nobility is probably the limit of titles in the Tang Dynasty. The titles above are basically empty titles, which are of no use. They have the same meaning as those of the Zhu Kingdom."

Di Renjie asked in confusion: "How did you know?"

Yun Chu said: "Yesterday, the emperor said that he plans to follow Taizong's old example of Lingyan Pavilion. There will only be twenty-four actual marquises in the world, and maybe there will be some kind of final elimination system."

Wen Wenwen said with a bitter face: "Only twenty-four?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "There are only twenty-four, neither increasing nor decreasing."

Di Renjie sighed and said, "The old events of the Eight Pillars Kingdom have reappeared."

Yun Chu said: "People can only understand what they can understand. Li Shi has tasted the benefits of the Eight Pillar Kingdom. The emperor felt that by splitting the Eight Pillar Kingdom into twenty-four marquises, power could be dispersed. Also because of the large number of people, Because of this, no matter who wants to combine vertical and horizontal, it will be a hundred times more difficult.

The best thing is that the Royal Family is the 25th family after the 24 Marquises. Because it is the most powerful, it has too many advantages that other families do not have.

So, he thought it was good to do this. "

Di Renjie was silent for a moment and said, "You didn't give me any advice last night?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "The method that others have worked hard to come up with... I can't easily veto it."

Wen Wen smiled slyly and said, "You are reluctant to veto it, right?"

When Yun Chu didn't answer, Di Renjie added, "You want to add the Wu brothers to the twenty-four marquises, right?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "No, I went to the Wu family's mansion this time just to ask the Wu brothers to help me design and build roads and bridges."

Soon, Yun Chu and the others arrived at Wu Chengsi's residence. When Wu Chengsi called Wu Sansi, the five of them chatted and laughed for a long time. Yun Chu and the others were drunk when they left.

Because he was drunk, Yunchu couldn't get out of Luoyang immediately, so he had to rest in a mansion near Baima Temple for a few days before returning to Chang'an.

When Yun Chu woke up, his mouth was extremely dry. When he saw Yu Xiurong's hands shaking while feeding him water, he asked, "What happened?"

Yu Xiurong suppressed the horror in his heart and said: "Your Majesty took away the title of King Zhao and demoted him to Duke Yan. At the same time, he removed the portrait of Li Xiaogong from Lingyan Pavilion."

Yun Chu nodded and said: "In the future, more people's portraits will be taken down one by one, and a new generation will replace the old ones, nothing more than that."

When Yu Xiurong heard what Yunchu said, she immediately lost her fear and buried her head in her husband's shoulder and whispered, "Is it possible for your husband's portrait to go up there?"
