39 The road to the top
"Second brother, how do you know?"
"inevitable."
"Old man Jun is just an ordinary member of the Jun family?"
"Why can you guess?"
"The Jun family is a first-class family with more than 100,000 tribes. Only real direct descendants and some people with good qualifications will be trained and valued. Although Li Xiang's repeated suppression, the Jun family began to decline, but they should not be underestimated. If it is a direct descendant, how could Xingguo County and Da'an Prefecture be allowed to make random judgments and let the real murderer go? Sister-in-law, let's continue."
Let Liu Xiu guess.
Although the He family was a family of officials, it was just a small family of officials. He's father was also exiled to serve as an official and had limited abilities, so He Si's wife had to take out her marriage letter.
The Da'an Mansion began a review, and someone from the Xu family came again, saying that it was not enough. Mrs. He had to hand over the clinic on behalf of Li Ping's three brothers, so that the Da'an Mansion could truly change the verdict. Of course, at this time, Mrs. He knew that it must be related to the young lady of the Xu family, but she was a woman and could not think of a good idea, so she made a contract with the Xu family. The Da'an Mansion changed the verdict and she handed over the verdict.
By the end of April, Da'an Prefecture re-sented the sentence, from a death sentence to a five-year mine. The place where the sentence was served was not too far from Da'an City, and Liu Xiu escaped from a mine in Jiaoshan Prefecture in Da'an Mountain.
Mrs. He Si handed over to the clinic.
That clinic is not located in the south city, but in the bustling north city. Just a house is worth a lot of money.
At the end of June, news of the Xu family's marriage was reported. The young lady of the Xu family married Li Zai, the son of Li Hua, the Congmu official of Xingguo County. It is said that Li Hua is the nephew of Li Huaizhong. In early July, when the Fu Yi army was waiting for the return of Xianyu Zhongshu's army in Yamin Mansion, a riot occurred in the mine in Jiaoshan Mansion. Who killed the pit and took away the key of the ban Yuanhuan, and hundreds of prisoners escaped from the mine.
Until now, only half of the people have been captured, and the whereabouts of the rest, including Zhuang Wenqing, are unknown.
"Sister-in-law, as long as the third brother escapes, with his wisdom, he will be safe."
But Liu Xiu vaguely felt that the death of the prison might be related to Zhuang Wenqing, and there were other inside stories.
It's too late today.
"I'll go to the college to ask tomorrow."
Duke Hou died, so he didn't want to rely on someone to help him when he was busy, but for a small busy period, someone was willing to extend his hand.
"Where are those doctors?"
"Only four people stayed, and a few of your 'students' left with the others." This is no problem. These doctors signed a contract with Liu Xiu, not the property of the clinic.
"Tomorrow, let Brother Zhuang invite someone to open a middle door in the East House, and then let Brother Qing invite them back. Let's open a clinic here."
Duke Hou divided the house into three parts, the middle house belonged to Li Ping, the east house belonged to Liu Xiu, and the west house belonged to Zhuang Wenqing. In fact, it doesn’t matter. The house is so big that only Zhong Bo’s family members are more than enough to stay in the middle house.
He Siniang took Li Zhuang and Li Qing’s wife to clean up the room for Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu washed up and Bo Zhong said, "It's still the same."
It must be not the original appearance, but just came back with dust and looked older, not old, but longevity.
After dinner, Liu Xiu went to the room to practice.
"Really overbearing."
After practicing, he actually drove the Yuanju Pan to automatically speed up. Of course, practicing at this speed is definitely a good thing. Not only is he more confident in breaking through the Qihai Realm, but his vital energy is also thicker, but he can't stand it.
The next day, Liu Xiu went to Nanshan College.
After Duke Hou passed away, Tang State appointed a Dean Lu, who had a strong temper, which led to Li Huaizhong suppressing Nanshan College. Then President Lu was transferred to Linhai Road to serve, and changed to a Dean Kong with a gentle temper. Liu Zhao appealed for Nanshan College, and Nanshan College took a breath.
A gentle temper may not be a bad thing, but Liu Xiu didn't know much about Dean Kong. He was looking for the elder Vice President Fang. When Duke Hou was there, the two had a good relationship. Li Ping had friends and Liu Xiu also had some friends. Elder Fang's grandson had a considerable relationship with Liu Xiu, but Li Ping said that his grandson had been released as an official and was not in the capital.
Vice President Fang was watering the flowers. When Duke Hou was there, Liu Xiu called Grandpa Fang. However, Duke Hou died. Now Liu Xiu is older, so he is suspected of clinging to him.
"Director Fang."
Elder Fang looked up at Liu Xiu: "Better than I thought."
When they reach their status, as long as they want to inquire, ordinary news will definitely be heard. But if Liu Xiu had not been convinced of the two longevity soups, the situation is really bad now.
"Because of you, the court has been surging these days."
"Director Fang, can you tell me?"
It is not something that needs to be concealed. Elder Fang talked about some situations while watering the flowers.
Officials from Suoshan County reported the situation to Lushui Prefecture. Lushui Prefecture officials knew that there must be ghosts behind them, but they did not want to be the scapegoat. After several important officials discussed it, they sent Wuyi officers and soldiers to enter Danan Mountain.
Danan Mountain has become a place to contain dirt. It is not that these people are very powerful, but that the cost of clearing out is too high, so it is helpless.
After Wuyi's army check, he caught some evil men hiding in Danan Mountain and obtained more information. Not only did he prove that the seven ghosts of Nanshan were involved, but the four gentlemen of Nanshan also participated in the assassination. Then he found the hunter Niu Er and said that he saw several groups of people running towards the direction of the Jiehui Valley.
Following the clues, Wuyi's soldiers came to Zhihui Valley, but no one dared to go in. After staying for several days, the black-faced ghosts, the curly ghost, the monkey-faced ghost and another evil cultivator came out in a panic. The four of them were very smart, so they chose to break through in the early morning, so the curly ghost escaped. The black-faced ghost and the monkey-faced ghost died in battle, and only another evil cultivator named Qin was captured alive.
After interrogation, some information was obtained. More than 100 gangsters participated in the assassination and hunting. Some died outside, including the four evil spirits on the mountain road, the crazy operator, and the three groups of people who intercepted Liu Xiu. Some died in the Jiehui Valley, but Liu Xiu and several young men who had inexplicably joined seemed to have disappeared into the Death Underworld.
Moreover, this evil cultivator named Qin also told me that the Seven Ghosts of Nanshan and the Four Gentlemen of Nanshan seemed to be controlled by a very powerful middle-aged man, and the assassination was instructed by the middle-aged man.
Then there is no need to stay there. Wuyi's troops retreated and reported the situation to the court with a fast horse.
The court immediately became an uproar.
Li Huaizhong is not simple. He said that he was a royal family of the Tang Dynasty, and he was still the uncle of Emperor Tang, so don’t take it seriously.
The ancestors of the Tang Dynasty royal family were the lords of the Western Liang Kingdom during the Di people's great invasion. Later, the country was destroyed, but many descendants were left behind, and they became prominent nobles in various countries and dynasties, and were also prominent relatives of the previous dynasty. If so, the common ancestor of Li Huaizhong and the Tang Dynasty royal family was an important minister of the previous dynasty. How many generations did this be separated?
Of course, Li Huaizhong became more developed. To put it this way, one was to put gold on his face, and the other was to be loyal and close to the Tang royal family, and no one dared to refute it.
In the real situation, Li Huaizhong cannot be regarded as a child of the royal family, and his father was only a seventh-rank local official. Because he was clever and his father's operation, Li Huaizhong quickly entered the officialdom with his family in his youth.
His father's situation was average, and a big man appeared in the matriarchy. His uncle Jiang Liang had the merit of following the dragon and was a friend of the Emperor Tang before he became famous. Therefore, he was granted the title of Duke of Jing. Because Li Huaizhong was good at dancing, Jiang Liang liked this nephew very much. With Jiang Liang's recommendation, Li Huaizhong was promoted to the crown prince Zhongyun and was already a fifth-rank official.
Soon, something happened to Jiang Liang.
After Wu Xianfei entered the palace, Empress Ye was favored, and Empress Ye was slightly unfair, which led to Emperor Tang wanting to depose the queen and asked Jiang Liang for several credible ministers. Jiang Liang was dissatisfied and wanted to leak things.
The Tang Dynasty at that time was not the current Tang Dynasty. There were many people of lofty ideals who joined in opposing the matter.
Everyone has the same thoughts as Jiang Liang. Before you became successful, the situation was also very difficult. Fortunately, Queen Ye and his family helped each other many times, and the two palace coups were extremely dangerous. Queen Ye had conspiracy. If you can be an emperor, Queen Ye also made great contributions, and it was a great contribution!
You are the emperor and should be an example for the world. You cannot make such ungrateful actions. You can't just like it, but you can't let it go.
The view of Queen Ye Liu Xiu is that ethics are OK and complaining is normal. First, it is unwilling to lose favor. Second, the roles such as Concubine Wu Xian and Concubine Liu are favored. Is it really good for the country? However, they are slightly lacking in wisdom and are not vicious enough. If you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. Especially when you encounter a selfish and lustful king like Emperor Tang, you must have high wisdom and strong skills to be a stable queen. There are not many children who have children who can have a good ending.
If you can't do two things, whether there is an "evil sacrifice" case, the end is inevitable, and even if you have a son, you can't do it.
Emperor Tang was okay at that time, but his strong personality was so strong that Empress Ye complained, which made him a little angry. Several close friends would give up this idea when they persuaded him. As a result, Emperor Tang couldn't hold back his face. He issued an order to arrest Jiang Liang, beat him to death. He ignored the opposition of his ministers and demoted Shannan Road. As a result, Jiang Liang was injured and died of illness on the way. The news came back, and Emperor Tang was very regretful. He issued an order to return the coffin and buried him with a generous burial. He also sent an envoy to give Jiang Liang's family a generous tribute.
That was what happened later. At the beginning, under the agitation of Emperor Tang, not only Jiang Liang, but also Jiang Liang's younger brother, and Jiang Liang's pro-party, were on the verge of death or executed.
Li Huaizhong was promoted by Jiang Liang. Seeing that the situation was not good, he defected to Prime Minister Yuan Kun. With his cleverness, he escaped the disaster. Then Li Huaizhong entrusted Yuan Kun's son to plead with him and wanted to be the doctor of the Ministry of Justice. The prince Zhongyun is of the same rank as the doctor of the Ministry of Justice, but the former is just a idle position, while the latter is an important position with real power.
Yuan Kun refused and said, "You are not Qingliu."
What is Qingliu? It refers to those who have studied at Nanshan College, obtained high grade credits, and have passed the test of time in their career, have both talent and virtue, and are extremely loyal to the Tang Dynasty, which can be called Qingliu.
Li Huaizhong came up with the shadow of the door and all the way. Is it a clear stream? It’s so turbid that it can’t be turbid anymore.
I am not Qingliu. Well, under the operation of Li Huaizhong, I fell down and came to Nanshan College to serve as a member of the college. His power was equivalent to that of the dean's staff. At his suggestion, Duke Hou launched a series of benign reforms, but he had to admit Li Huaizhong's wisdom. Once he put his wisdom in doing practical things, it was rare for anyone to match it.
Duke Hou praised him very much back then, which was also the most regrettable thing that Duke Hou had before his death.
Let’s say that Li Huaizhong is capable, which attracted the attention of the powerful minister Yu Wenhua. With the recommendation of Yu Wenhua, he was promoted to the Chief Censor of the Censor. Then, with Xiao Xian of the Xiao family, the three of them joined forces to impeach Zhang Yan, the prime minister. Zhang Yan was not simple, but both sides suffered a defeat.
But at this time, Li Huaizhong once again showed an amazing sense of political smell. He participated in the first half, and he decisively withdrew in the second half, but was spared. Then he continued to look for his "comrades-in-arms", searched for him, and focused his attention on Concubine Wu... Finally, he became the prime minister. With his scheming, wisdom, wrists, and amazing sense of political smell, once he got to power, who could kick him down?
If only the four evil forces in Shishan participated in the assassination, there would be too many possibilities, and maybe even the Yongluo King in Mengnan could do it.
However, the famous criminals such as the Crazy Boy, the Seven Ghosts of Nanshan, and the Four Gentlemen of Nanshan participated and controlled them one after another, and only two people could do it, Liu Zhao and Li Huaizhong.
Liu Xiu solved two major problems for Liu Zhao. Liu Zhao could not harm Liu Xiu, so only Li Huaizhong.
And as Li Huaizhong took control of real power, his party members spread all over the world, gradually revealing his cruel nature of revenge, so he is called a sweet-mouthed sword. If it weren't for the appearance of Liu Xiu, either Xianyu Zhongshu would have been missing or there would be more than 100,000 troops or the Shuijiang Mansion was in chaos, and Li Huaizhong would have taken the opportunity to take down Liu Zhao, which means that Li Huaizhong had the greatest motive for committing the crime.
But there are many people who object, and the reasons are also very good.
In the Battle of Wangyun City, except for the original Wu Yi army, the rest were Liu Zhao's confidants again. Not to mention General Io, such as General Jin and General Kulan. Why? They asked them to make a contribution and take the lead step by step.
After the Battle of Wangyun City, Liu Xiu knew himself and did not flatter Liu Zhao or take a stand. That's it. Liu Zhao did not erase Liu Xiu's contribution, and Liu Xiu was able to be awarded the title of Marquis of Pingnan County. Shao Zhongen was also Liu Zhao's person. In fact, Shao Zhongen could not be considered Liu Zhao's person, but Liu Guifei's person. But everyone dared not say what happened later. After all, Liu Guifei was more favored than Wu Xianfei back then. This is not right in itself.
Last year, Liu Zhao was trapped in financial resources and military forces, and recruited evil bandits and criminals to join the army. It was nothing wrong, especially these evil bandits were hidden in the deep mountains and forests, and it was difficult to eliminate them. If they were organized, it would not be mentioned to increase the combat effectiveness of the Southern Expedition Army, which would also be of great help to public security in various places.
During this recruitment process, Liu Zhao had the opportunity to learn about the evil cultivators in various places. He might control some evil cultivators and use them for his own use.
Although Liu Xiu had low cultivation, he was very wise, so the Duke of Hou Guo said that Liu Xiu was the most beautiful. His Majesty also said that he was a good young man. However, no one had a clear understanding of this, including Li Huaizhong.
It was only the frontline that some people knew how difficult Liu Xiu was, and the facts proved that it was very difficult. So many people participated in the assassination, and there were many evil cultivators at the Martial King level, and they actually dragged only four people back. Only Liu Zhao would attach so much importance to it. If Li Huaizhong sent three crazy runners, they would have reached the top.
