Chapter 4 King of Pingbei

Seeing Li Chengqian's unparalleled domineering appearance, everyone in the audience disagreed.

They all look like clowns waiting for Li Chengqian to be defeated. Who is Jiang Ran?

In terms of power, he is the head of the Jiang family, one of the three major families in Shengjing City. He is also the Minister of War in the Tang Dynasty. He has cronies all over the Tang Dynasty and is extremely powerful.

In terms of strength, he is clearly ranked among the top five in the Tang Dynasty. He is a master of the first level of Tongmai. How can a little-known person kill him?

But everyone didn't know that Jiang Ran was in a very bad situation at this time. When he looked at the strong man staring at him, he felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious beast.

His intuition told him that the little man named Zhou Cang in front of him was definitely a master, much better than him.

It's just that he couldn't express all this with his mouth. He was suppressed by Zhou Cang's momentum. He couldn't even blink his eyes and still wanted to speak, ha!

Jiang Ran felt extremely regretful at this moment. Why did he talk so meanly just now? He didn't expect that his quick success would bring about such a disaster for him. But now he can only wait for the judgment of fate and can't do anything.

Zhou Cang didn't care what Jiang Ran thought. When he raised the knife, Jiang Ran's head fell off.

"Your Majesty, the traitor Jiang Ran has been killed on the spot!"

Zhou Cang picked up Jiang Ran's head and walked forward to return his life to Li Chengqian.

All the ministers looked at each other in disbelief.

"Okay, Yuan Fu did a good job. Come and hang Jiang Ran's head at the palace gate as a warning to others!"

"No." A soldier behind Zhou Cang took Jiang Ran's head from Zhou Cang's hand and came out of the palace to execute the order.

This person was one of the thousand Blood Guards of the Tang Dynasty.

"What a shame, you haven't come to see my king yet? Do you want to end up like Jiang Ran, the traitor?"

"We pay our respects to the king."

Zhou Cang snorted coldly, which frightened the officials so much that their faces turned pale, and they all knelt down and shouted involuntarily.

Jiang Ran's end is imminent. At the same time, when everyone present discusses their level of strength, no one is Jiang Ran's opponent. Even Jiang Ran has failed. Who among them dares to explode?

Each of them had their foreheads pressed against the ground, fearing that Li Chengqian would be unhappy and chop them on the spot.

Little did he know that Li Chengqian was secretly slandering these cowards at this moment. Li Chengqian originally expected them to cause a big riot so that Li Chengqian could have an excuse to go on a killing spree, but now...

For a moment, Li Chengqian had many thoughts in his mind. However, was there really nothing Li Chengqian could do?

"My dear ministers, our Tang Dynasty is now surrounded by enemies on all sides, and I want to ask all the aristocratic families to send all their adult men into the army, so that they can go to the front lines to support various important passes.

In addition, our country, the Tang Dynasty, has been fighting for many years, and the national treasury has been completely empty. I want to borrow 90% of the wealth of various aristocratic families to fill the national treasury to support the war ahead. What do you think?"

"No, you must not do it. Your Majesty will cause chaos in the world!"

"Yes, yes, please, Your Majesty, take back your life as soon as possible."...

Li Chengqian's two clauses have seriously infringed on the interests of various families. Everyone in the court immediately changed their colors and were no longer docile. If they weren't worried about Zhou Cang's power, someone might have used force to force Li Chengqian to surrender.

After all, how many of the people in this court are not from aristocratic families? Li Chengqian's disturbing the interests of aristocratic families is tantamount to declaring war on them.

"Okay, don't you all agree with my suggestion?" Li Chengqian asked expressionlessly.

Soon, everyone, led by Prime Minister Situ Moyu, stood in a pile to show their attitude and silently protested against Li Chengqian.

As for Zhou Cang's threat, they had already forgotten it. They didn't believe it. Li Chengqian dared to risk the disapproval of the world and kill them all here.

What surprised Li Chengqian was that there were actually three people standing silently behind Zhou Cang, showing their support for Li Chengqian.

In my mind, these three people are Wang Xi, the Minister of Rites, Situ Feixing, the capital of Shengjing, and Wang Long, the general of the Xiaowei.

Wang Xi and Wang Long both came from poor families and were not allowed to participate in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty. It was not surprising that Li Chengqian made such a choice.

But this Situ Feixing is interesting. He is the second master of the Situ family, one of the three major families in Shengjing City, and the younger brother of the current Prime Minister Situ Moyu.

Is there something dirty in this? Li Chengqian looked at Situ Moyu with amusement in his eyes.

"You bastard, second brother, come here quickly." Situ Moyu also realized something was wrong in time and shouted immediately.

"Huh, Situ Moyu, I'm not your servant. If you want to order me, you can't!" Situ Feixing replied with disgust and no fear.

"You, hum!" Situ Moyu also knew that it was useless to talk more at this time, so in order to avoid further embarrassment, he simply kept silent.

"Haha, Cheng Qian, what's wrong with you? How can you be so tit-for-tat with your lords? Come on, I have the final say. Come down quickly and apologize to your lords, and this matter will be over."

At this time, an inappropriate sound came from outside the hall.

"King Pingbei, who gave you the courage to ask me to apologize!" Li Chengqian's eyes were slightly narrowed and his tone was tepid.

Li Xiao, King of Pingbei, is the half-brother of the original owner's father, Li Mo. Li Chengqian had doubts about him before, but now that he appears in such a grand manner, he is afraid that he will be exposed.

But there was one thing that Li Chengqian couldn't figure out. This Li Xiao used to be an out-and-out trash. His realm was only at the level of Yun Qi. He usually indulged in debauchery and drunkenness. He was also a famous softie with a timid personality. Behind his back

Who is it?

"Cheng Qian, what you said is presumptuous. I am your biological uncle. Do you have any sense of superiority or inferiority?" Li Xiao walked up to the crowd, pointed at Li Cheng Qian, and scolded loudly.

The doubts in Li Chengqian's heart are getting heavier. Something is wrong, very wrong! Today's Li Xiao seems to be a different person, advancing and retreating in a measured and well-reasoned manner. How can this be the behavior of a useless prince?

Could it be that this Uncle Wang has been pretending before?

If it is true, it would be terrible. You must know that Li Xiao has been a famous good-for-nothing prince since he was a boy. This appearance is definitely more than fifty years old.

"King Pingbei, you are my uncle, and I should respect you in private. However, now in the court, I am the king and you are the minister. Are you not treating me like this?

In your eyes?"

At the same time, Zhou Cang cooperated very well and exuded a strong momentum to press towards Li Xiao.

Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened. Li Xiao suddenly felt a strong wind around him, and his momentum was astonishing. It was no worse than Zhou Cang.

"Tongmai Ninth Level!" Li Chengqian couldn't help but feel shocked. Although Zhou Cang was only at Tongmai Level 5, his real strength was comparable to Tongmai Ninth Level. However, Li Xiao was evenly matched with Zhou Cang. It was obvious that he had reached Tongmai Level.

The realm of the ninth level of pulse.

It seems that this uncle Li Xiao's plan is not trivial. Li Chengqian took a deep look at Li Xiao.

"From what I can tell, the outside world has many misunderstandings about Uncle Wang!" Li Chengqian said to Li Xiao meaningfully.

"Haha, how can outsiders know my king's ambitions? My dear Chengqian, get off the throne for me! In terms of resourcefulness and strength, I am a thousand times better than you! What qualifications do you have to dominate the Tang Dynasty?

"

Suddenly, Li Xiao took off all disguises and pointed at Li Chengqian, sometimes laughing and sometimes getting angry. He had no scruples and looked like he was sure of victory.
