Tang's dining table

One hundred and eighty-nine people died overnight. Among these one hundred and eighty-nine people, if the Tubo people died, they died. It was no big deal. The problem was that among the remaining one hundred and two people, there were old people. There are women and children...

When Yun Chu came out of Hua's house yawning in the morning, he felt a little tired. What Wen Wen said was not wrong at all. He had raised a poisonous dragon.

Yunchu always felt that before tribesmen killed other tribesmen, they should have some compassion. Although doing so might breed tigers, but when everyone did this, it would be fair to everyone in the tribe. of.

The annihilation of a clan is a very terrible thing. In Yun Chu's understanding, unless the survival of this group of people endangers the safety of the entire clan, such a cruel punishment can be carried out. Otherwise, the matter should be judged based on the facts.

Killing the whole family at every turn is not a sign of authority, but of absolute cowardice. The domineering spirit can be unleashed outside the vast territory of the Tang Dynasty. In the country, it should be common sense that the guilty should be punished.

Liu Fei slept very well last night, so she looked very energetic when she woke up in the morning. When she left Hua's house, she even asked the old madam for two bottles of anti-virus medicine mixed with hundred-flower nectar, and now she looked very proud of her in her arms.

The banquets in the Tang Dynasty usually lasted all night long. Although in the end the men rolled into a ball with the singers and dancers, it was not a mess.

The main reason is that Yun Chu refused to cause chaos, and Zhong Kui also refused to cause chaos. The remaining four Tang native prostitutes would not be able to cause chaos.

The reason why Yun Chu refused to mess up was very simple. It was because Liu Fei, who always snored loudly, slept extremely quietly that night. He didn't snore or even fart.

Of course Yun Chu refused to admit this. When he returned home, he attributed all this to his unyielding love for his wife.

In fact, at last night's banquet, there was a dancing girl from Zhao. Her appearance, figure, and conversation were all in his taste.

Yu Xiurong greeted the man who had returned from the banquet at the door early. He glanced at Liu Fei first, then with a smile on his face, he supported Yun Chu's arm and walked into the house.

When passing by the middle hall, he saw Li Hong eating breakfast. Yun Chu stopped and raised his fingers at Li Hong.

Li Hong smiled brilliantly, then took two sticks from the weapon rack in the middle hall and threw one to Yun Chu. He took one for himself, and then held the stick and circled around Yun Chu.

Yun Chu held a baseball bat in his hand and said, "The killing last night was a bit excessive."

Li Hong nodded and said: "The death of Lin Yushu's family was not what I wanted. I also felt uncomfortable knowing that sixteen old, weak, women and children died in the raid last night."

Yun Chu looked at the stick in Li Hong's hand and said, "So, are you going to take this matter on your own?"

Li Hong stood up straight and said, "I gave the order. They were just the executors. If there was any deviation, it was my fault."

After saying that, Li Hong rushed towards Yun Chu with a stick, and the stick hit his head with a whistling sound.

Yunchu swung the stick to knock away Li Hong's weapon, and then the stick in his hand hit Li Hong's abdomen.

"You must make good use of the power in your hands, and you must be able to retract and release it freely. They are just weapons in your hands. The weapons must be held in your hands. With one strike, no matter how hard you cut, how hard you use, you must It is done according to your wishes.

If you can't keep the knife away, try not to chop with all your strength. Otherwise, it will be easy to chop with the knife, but it will be difficult to control the consequences of the chop.

Anyone who does things that harm you in the name of your own good must be eliminated as soon as possible. "

Li Hong tried his best to jump back, trying to avoid Yun Chu's stick. Unexpectedly, just when he felt that he had reached a safe distance, Yun Chu stepped forward, causing the stick to hit him hard. on the belly.

Li Hong took two steps back, stood firm and said, "Lu Zhou is a good subordinate."

Yun Chu stepped forward again, picked up the stick and hit Li Hong on the waist, and continued, "This is what I mean when the weapon has its own ideas. It's better to kill this kind of person."

Li Hong waved the stick with both hands and swung away Yunchu's weapon, taking the opportunity to say: "I think what he said when he came back made sense. Those women and children knew that it was the palace guards of the East Palace who wanted to kill them."

“If it makes sense, it must be said before the order is issued. Once the order is issued, it cannot be changed.

Otherwise, your fatwas will become like toilet paper in the years to come. Anyone can change them, and anyone can control the intensity of the fatwas. This is a taboo for those in power. "

"What if my reputation gets bad?"

"Do you think your reputation will be good now? What's the big deal for the dignified Prince of the Tang Dynasty to kill someone who is not good for him?

Killing someone openly is a way of establishing authority, but killing an entire family secretly is terrifying!

You are the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty. The most important thing is to make people fear you, not to make them feel horrible.

People who are afraid will be careful when facing you, and people who fear you will only stay away from you. You are the prince of the Tang Dynasty, and you will become the center of power of the Tang Dynasty in the future. Everyone should surround you and make suggestions for you. Use it for you, not for everyone to stay away from you. "

"Clang, clang, clang." Yunchu held up the baseball bat and struck it down three times with all his strength. Li Hong used all his strength to block three times. After three times, his jaws were cracked. He then threw away the baseball bat, raised his butt and said, "How many hits?" Just do it, don't beat me until I can't see anyone."

Yun Chu stopped the stick that was about to fall and said, "Do you understand what I'm telling you?"

Li Hong held his hand in vain, letting blood fall from the edge of his palm. He looked at Yun Chu and said, "I won't be able to use ghost tricks in the future?"

Yun Chu said angrily: "After studying with me for so long, why don't you understand that you, Li Hong, are the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty and the third person in the power center of the Tang Dynasty? You are the king, and the king must act with integrity, right and wrong. , are all like this.

As for the evil tricks, they can only come from the hands and mouths of villains like Xu Jingzong. "

Seeing that Yun Chu seemed to have stopped beating him, Li Hong quickly shouted to Li Si, who was so frightened that his face turned pale: "You are a dead person, didn't you see that I was bleeding?"

Li Si replied with a groan, then stumbled over to find ointment and linen for Li Hong to wrap his wounds.

Yun Chu threw the stick back to the weapon rack and kicked it casually, causing Li Hong's baseball bat to return to the weapon rack.

The master and apprentice sat on the bluestone steps, watching the rising sun in silence.

After a long time, Li Hong said, "Did my behavior last night disappoint the master?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "One thing, I originally vacated the place for you to let you get rid of Xu Jingye's men in Chang'an and scare him, and also to let you interact with the Tubo people and see what the enemy has to offer. What is the real strength?

Originally, I thought you would take Lin Yushu as your own, but unexpectedly, you killed the whole family.

The reason why Li Xian has been reluctant to join the vassal is that he has some thoughts about your position as prince. By subduing Lin Yushu, Li Xian can be afraid of you in his heart. If you kill people now, you will accept people from Prince Li Xianlu's palace in the future. , the difficulty more than doubled.

What's worse is that you let your father and mother suddenly discover that you are a cruel and ruthless person. This is your biggest loss. "

Li Hong let Li Si help him heal the wound on the tiger's mouth, then covered his face with his hands wrapped like bear paws and said, "Master, am I terrible?"

Yun Chu grabbed two buns from the plate brought by Yu Xiurong, stuffed one into his mouth, and handed the other to Li Hong, saying: "Take your time, no one can get things done right from the beginning. The problem is not early enough." A little bit of it being revealed is not necessarily a bad thing.”

Li Hong took a bite of the bun and said, "I'll deal with Lu Zhou when I get back."

Yun Chu stuffed the remaining half of the bun into his mouth and said, "Ask Xu Jingzong first, he will help you handle this matter."

Li Hong then stuffed half of the bun into his mouth and said, "Master has already pointed out the disciple's mistake, why do you still need to ask Xu Jingzong for advice?"

Yun Chu said: "If you listen to one side, you will be dark, and if you listen to both, you will be enlightened. This is the cultivation that an emperor must have. Furthermore, Xu Jingzong has done countless dirty work for your Li family. He is the most experienced in this kind of matter. He can help you handle it." Luo Zhou, a person who makes decisions without permission, will not let the people in the East Palace think you are ruthless."

Yun Chu took out two more steamed buns from the plate, gave one to Li Hong again and said, "When you go back, you will follow His Majesty to observe the government. Remember, if you really can't stand it in the court, just give it a lot." If your Majesty has already made a decision, you must keep silent. You must not think that you are capable and try to overturn your Majesty's decision. This is the stupidest way to watch politics.

Observing government means only watching and listening, recording more and talking less. You should let the courtiers feel your presence and fully understand you. "

Li Hong finished the buns in two mouthfuls and said painfully: "You have also seen the people standing there, who is not a hero in the world, and who is not a smart person like ice and snow. If you want to fulfill the master's expectations in front of them, this , it’s just too difficult.”

Yunchu laughed and patted Li Hong on the shoulder and said: "You are the prince, and the prince's aura is inherently oppressive to them. As long as you don't expose your butt when it's time to show your face, you can actually fulfill my request." It’s not difficult.”

Li Hong nodded, stood up, grabbed two buns from the plate in Yu Xiurong's hand, gnawed them, and left the Yun family mansion.

Li Si held Yun Chu's arm and said, "Master, did the prince brother do something wrong?"

Yun Chu sighed and said, "Yes, I did something wrong. I just hope he can accept what I said."

Li Si shook Yun Chu's arm and said, "He was just confused for a moment. Once the master helps him think things through, he will become smarter and not as stupid as before."

Yun Chu smiled and patted Li Si's head. He felt very sleepy, so he went back to the back house to catch up on his sleep.

Under the deliberate handling of the palace guards, the death of 189 people in Chang'an City did not cause any waves in the city.

Chang'an City is too big, and the lack of so many people will not hinder the operation of the city.

Just two days later, there were rumors that there was a guard named Lu Zhou in the East Palace. He had just been promoted to captain by His Royal Highness. However, he lost his temper at the banquet prepared by Xu Jingzong for them. He took advantage of the time of changing clothes and took away one of his concubines. It's a disaster.

In a rage, Xu Jingzong pursued him with a horse spear, causing the drunken Lu Zhou to fall from the high bridge between Xu's pavilions and die.
