Seeing the crazy adoring expressions of the crowd near the Meridian Gate, Li Nuo felt like crying...

His brainwashing of everyone was undoubtedly successful, but it was precisely this that made it difficult for him to ride a tiger!

He couldn't help but secretly curse, Lao Du, Lao Du, if you don't come, I will die on the spot!

Take a deep breath and use your remaining literary power to complete a small part of this poem, just to delay it for a while longer...

"Below are the rivers and mountains, and above are the sun and stars..."

Between heaven and earth, mountains and rivers tremble, and the sun and stars are dazzling, as if they have come to life, echoing Li Nuo from a distance.

When righteousness sinks, it manifests itself as mountains, rivers, and rivers.

What do mountains and rivers represent?

In a narrow sense, it means the great country of Wanli!

Therefore, the Central Plains Dynasty was a dynasty full of awe-inspiring righteousness!

As long as your heart is upright, all evil spirits will have nowhere to hide.

When righteousness rises, it manifests itself as the sun, moon and stars. They are impartial and upright. The rich can enjoy sunbathing, and the poor can enjoy the bright moon at night.

Therefore, there is a saying about Qingtian!

The blue sky represents justice and order!

An official with a clean sleeves and an official who loves the people like a son is called the "Grand Master Qingtian"!

As soon as these two lines of poetry came out, everyone took a breath.

They suddenly felt their blood boiling, their faces turned red, and they wanted to shout loudly to vent their emotions.

The literary energy in Li Nuo's body continued to overflow, turning into golden characters floating between heaven and earth.

He took a deep breath and continued to read: "What people call Haoran is so vast that it fills the sky!"

This Qi is called Haoran Zhengqi in the human world, and it fills the world between heaven and earth!

Under the blue sky and above the loess, if there is such a majestic and righteous spirit, why worry about how difficult people's lives are?

The people of the Central Plains are a group of hard-working people. They are not afraid of hard work. They are only afraid of a group of people who are domineering over them and constantly exploiting them.

"That's it, that's it..."

"It turns out that this is the awe-inspiring righteousness... Listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. Li Zian is worthy of being my teacher!"

Many Confucian scholars who are in the Wen Dao [Sixth Grade Haoran Righteous Realm] can be said to have experienced an epiphany and suddenly became enlightened.

They all bowed to Li Nuo!

A teacher is someone who teaches, teaches, and resolves doubts.

Li Nuo wrote "Song of Righteousness" to resolve their doubts and deserves their respect!

call……

At this time, the literary energy in Li Nuo's body was completely empty.

In just a short period of time, all the Wen Qi in his body was drained out, even the Wen Qi in his bones and blood vessels was used up.

Fortunately, although his literary spirit has dissipated, under the illumination of Wenquxing, his literary world is constantly expanding.

Although he is still at the "peak level of fourth-grade true artistic conception", his literary capacity is no less than that of a third-grade scholar of literature and art.

As long as he fulfills his "promises", he can be promoted to a third-grade scholar immediately.

He has established his heart for heaven and earth, and established his destiny for the people. He has already accomplished both of these things.

The next steps are to carry on the unique learning for the saints and to create peace for all generations, which is naturally a bit difficult.

Especially the latter.

If we want peace in the world, we must educate all races with Confucianism. How difficult this is!

Back to business.

Watching the scene, both the scholar-bureaucrats and ordinary people were all intoxicated, as if they were bathing in the spring breeze.

This awe-inspiring righteousness that is spreading in the sky and floating on the ground is eliminating the resentment in their hearts, eliminating their dissatisfaction with the world, and inspiring them to work hard and yearn for beauty.

Xu Yunting, who acted as an executioner for the first time, collapsed on the ground and cried bitterly.

He is repenting.

He confessed that he was worse than a beast in avenging his private revenge!

In this life, he is willing to put down his butcher knife and be a good person, as long as Li Zian is willing to give him a chance to start a new life.

Chen Lin's head hurt so much that she wanted to hit the wall.

The golden light of national destiny on Li Zian's body almost blinded his eyes.

He was extremely scared.

Li Zian is not a prince, let alone a prince, but with such a degree of national destiny, he will sooner or later come into conflict with the emperor of the day.

Will there really be a change of dynasty?

fear……

He must not leak this secret, otherwise he will be killed.

He felt the pain in his throat like a knife cutting him. He also wanted to kneel down and repent, but he was too weak to move.

[By the way, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, change the source app, .huanyuanapp install the latest version. 】

He knew that there were cracks in his literary heart. Who called him the chief judge? The backlash he suffered was naturally the most serious.

Dou Zheng, the chief minister, had an extremely complicated expression in his cloudy eyes.

He understood that Li Zian's situation was already established and he could no longer control it at will.

That’s all…

This guy is very human!

He is already quite old, and he doesn’t know when he will step into the coffin, so why should he be at odds with this kid?

Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings...

If his children and grandchildren cannot hold on to the wealth he has built for the Dou family, then the Dou family... just disappear with the wind.

Qingfeng Tower.

Du Yan, who was leaning on the window sill, regained his composure, stroked his mustache, and laughed proudly: "Haha, Li Zian really has a way of showing himself to be a saint. I didn't expect that even the Confucian Saint Crown was alarmed. I think Confucianism

He is a bachelor, who dares to make things difficult for him?"

His Highness Qingyang's eyes widened slightly, and his red lips raised a beautiful arc: "Master Du, now it's your turn to come on stage and finish the show."

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot, the princess is waiting, I have to go."

Du Yan laughed and walked out of Qingfeng Tower, striding toward the Meridian Gate.

His arrival can be regarded as resolving the awkward situation.

Then I saw him cupping his hands in front of everyone and saying loudly: "Comrades, please listen to me..."

"Who is this old man with a goatee and such a loud tone?"

"You guys, please be respectful, this is Lord Du, the Minister of Rites, the great scholar who guards Chang'an City!"

"He's a bachelor from Du University! Isn't he in Chang'an? Why did he come to Luoyang?"

"I heard that Mr. Du and Li Zian have been friends for many years."

"Hey, do you still remember that Li Zian's song "The Spring Breeze" made Master Du burst into tears... Since then, Master Du has never written peach blossom poems again! It's a pity that the Peach Blossom Master is here.

The last word..."

This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Hey, Lao Du is not kind. How amazing is the song "Spring Breeze", but he didn't share it. I'm so angry.

I am too!"

Everyone on the field started whispering.

The corners of Du Yan's mouth twitched slightly.

Damn it!

The building is crooked!

He immediately said: "Everyone, I just got something, which is enough to prove that Sun Bingda and his like colluded with the barbarians and betrayed the interests of the court. Li Zian killed them during the war. It was an act to build up the morale of the army. It is not guilty!"

"

Du Yan then unfolded the letter and showed it to several chief judges on the court to read one by one.

After King Zhao Cheng and his party saw it, their expressions changed drastically!

This is no small matter!

Those who recommended Sun Bingda to be the peace envoy were afraid that they would also be implicated.

After Dou Zheng read it, he couldn't believe it at all.

How can this be?

How could his eldest grandson, such an honest and honest person, do such a treasonous thing?

It was for the future of the Dou family that he made Dou Qingshan the peace envoy. He wanted to brush off his merits and promote him in the future, but he didn't know how he could commit such a serious crime...

But this letter was indeed written by Yan Tieye, the commander of the Barbarian Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, to Sun Bingda and the others. Unless there is a Tianji master who blocks the Tianji, the aura on it cannot be fake at all!

The content of the letter is quite simple, that is, after the barbarian tribe and the human tribe negotiate a peace, the barbarian tribe will give their three envoys an additional 20% kickback!

A rough calculation shows that there are two to three million taels.

so……

The three of them, Sun Bingda, are really colluding with the barbarians to harm the public and private interests!

Of course, Dou Zheng also thought that this was just a one-sided letter and whether the barbarians deliberately framed them.

But thinking about it carefully, this is completely impossible.

Before Sun Bingda and the other three became peace envoys, who among the barbarians would know these petty officials?

If we really want to frame him, wouldn't it be better to frame the cabinet bachelor?

Therefore, as soon as this evidence came out, it caused an uproar and also caused people to turn from their previous sympathy for Sun Bingda into deep contempt.

Damn it!

Dog official, corrupt official!

Deserve to be killed!

And Li Zian has become the real Qingtian Master in the eyes of everyone!

"Master Dou, your eldest grandson, hey... if he dies, then he will die. Where the Dou family goes, it all depends on you."

Du Yan gave a kind reminder.

The implication is that you, an old man who has never died, beg your bones and return to your hometown. This way you can be good to me and everyone, so as not to break your face and make it difficult to be a good person.

Dou Zheng's old bones trembled slightly, and he was obviously ten years older.

They are all old foxes who have been in court for a long time, so he naturally understands what Du Yan means.

His position as first assistant can no longer be maintained.

As Li Zian said before, cultivate one's morality, harmonize one's family, govern the country and bring peace to the world.

If he cannot even educate his own children and grandchildren well, how can he educate the world?

Whatever.

Beg for the bones and go back to your hometown to live a long life as a rich man.

He stood up slowly, turned around unsteadily and left. The lonely and hunched figure formed a sharp contrast with Li Nuo's tall and straight body under the bright sun.

Li Nuo was filled with tears when he saw Du Yan finally showing up.

Not easy!

If Lao Du doesn't come, he will really die.

After being untied, Li Nuo gritted his teeth and said, "Master Du, you came at the right time!"

Du Yan didn't hear the irony, he said cheerfully: "I just happened to see you showing off in front of others, it's not a waste of time for me to go..."

After saying that, Du Yan walked up to Chen Lin and said, "Mr. Chen, I would like you to present this evidence of crime to His Majesty for reading. Zian, I will take it away first. By the way, in three days there will be a big reward based on merit."

If there is a meeting in court, I will go to court."

The warning in the words is very strong. It means that you, you bastard, should be at peace with me these days. Don't cause trouble and embarrass the ministers who have made meritorious deeds in the court meeting, otherwise I will not be polite!

Chen Lin took the letter and found that he had lost his mind for a long time and how could he dare to cause trouble.

He swore that he would treat everything about Li Zian as if he hadn't seen it in the future.

Anyone who likes to squirt will be blind anyway.

Li Nuo and Du Yan strode away.

This mess was naturally left to Chen Lin to clean up.

Who calls him the presiding judge!

Chen Lin put away the letter and took a quick look. Yu Qian, Lu Wangda, and King Zhao Cheng had already left.

On the field, those Confucian students who were still lingering looked at him with eyes full of disgust.

Yes, he almost killed the future star of their Confucian sect.

After leaving the Meridian Gate, Li Nuo said goodbye to Du Yan, but he did not go to Qingfeng Tower to stay.

Luoyang City is close to the bank of the Yangtze River. Where there is water, there are canals.

Therefore, Caobang also purchased several properties in Luoyang.

With the support of Da Hei Niu and others, Li Nuo entered a quiet courtyard. Lu Yihong immediately stepped forward and saluted: "Master, quickly step over the brazier to get rid of bad luck."

Li Nuo also strode over the brazier and asked with a smile: "Why are you here? Has the business been established?"

Lu Yihong replied: "Sir, we have joined forces with the four major escort bureaus in the south of the Yangtze River to form the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce. We specialize in traveling on the Ancient Tea Horse Road and manage the sixteen countries in the Western Regions. We have already made our first trip and everything is going well."

Li Nuo smiled and asked, "Didn't you encounter any robbers?"

"Haha, what we are flying is the jade unicorn flag of the leader of the martial arts alliance. What blind horse bandit dares to rob the road?"

Lu Yihong smiled confidently.

"The Ancient Tea Horse Road is related to the future layout. Don't let down your guard. You must maintain it. Not only our business, but also other small caravans must be protected."

Li Nuo reminded.

"Don't worry, sir. We have recruited about five thousand heroes from the Jiangnan Escort Bureau. The weakest ones have [ninth-grade physical bodies], and the strongest ones have three great masters. They have become our enshrinements. As long as the consignment value is fifty

Caravans with more than 10,000 taels of goods are personally led by the Grand Master."

Lu Yihong said methodically.

"Well, but we can't take it lightly. Everything must be safe."

Li Nuo nodded.

As for the Grand Master's loyalty, he was not careful.

He is the leader of the martial arts alliance, and the number one person in the third level of martial arts in the world after Yang Wudi! Who dares to make a mistake? Do you still want to hang out in the world?

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But with Lu Yihong, he was indeed much more relaxed.

Of course, this is also a test, a test for Xi Chu.

After all, if you want to follow the Ancient Tea Horse Road, you have to deal with Meiguan, and Ren Tianxing, who occupies the entire Lingnan area, does not stop him, let alone make things difficult.

"Okay, you go down and do your work. I also need to take a rest. I guess I have to go to court later, and that's when the blood will be drawn."

Li Nuo sent Lu Yihong away.

He entered the back room, calmed down, and carefully considered the next path.

In the past few days, it can be regarded as a wave of strong presence in public.

He defended Chang'an, drove away the barbarians, and made rapid progress in the arts... It can be said that he is now not only the patron saint in the hearts of the people, but also the god in the hearts of Confucian students.

In this way, as long as he does not act out of line, the court will not make things difficult for him anymore.

At least I won't embarrass him head-on.

Otherwise, you are going against the entire Confucianism and Taoism.

Those who can serve as officials in the imperial court are basically Confucian scholars, and they will not make fun of their own literary minds.

No words for a day.

Li Nuo stayed behind closed doors and refused visits from a group of court officials.

This is not to show off, but to avoid suspicion...

Three days later.

Great court meeting.

Li Nuo also received an oral order from the emperor to go to court.

But this made him a little embarrassed.

What identity should I use?

After much thought, he decided to wear the blue official uniform.

The official title of Lingnan Inspector has not been taken back by the emperor yet.

then.

When it was only Yin Shi, Li Nuo went to the Meridian Gate.

At a glance, all of them are old men in scarlet robes and purple robes. Only he is a green robe below the fourth rank official, and he is a bit too young and looks out of place.

And his appearance immediately silenced the entire audience.

The thoughts of all the elders were extremely complicated at this time.

In terms of Taoist attainments, Li Zian is already above them.

There is a famous saying in literature and Taoism, which is "the master is the teacher".

This embarrassed them.

Their official positions were higher than Li Nuo's, but their literary skills were far inferior to that of Li Nuo. So...how should they be called Li Nuo?

So, they had no choice but to turn their heads away and pretend not to see it.

Li Nuo couldn't help but feel funny, but he didn't point it out.

He still has some emotional intelligence.

Finally it was time to go to court.

The Meridian Gate opened wide, and all the ministers lined up to enter.

In the Taichu Palace.

Emperor Jingtai sat high on the dragon chair with an expressionless face.

"When there is something to do, we will start to act, but when there is nothing to do, we will retreat."

With a long sound from the Xiaohuang Gate, the great court meeting began.

"Your Majesty, Du Yan, I have something to report!"

Du Yan looked majestic today and was the first to appear.

"Du Aiqing, how is Chang'an?"

Emperor Jingtai smiled.

He was still very satisfied with Du Yan. After all, he had defended Chang'an, which could be regarded as a fig leaf for the imperial court to give to the world.

Yes.

In the eyes of Emperor Jingtai, Du Yan was the biggest contributor!

Du Yan said angrily: "Your Majesty, the people of Chang'an are united as one and are rebuilding their homes. Everything is fine. However, Your Majesty, in the battle of Chang'an, more than 35,000 soldiers died for the country, and more than 200,000 people were left homeless.

, please ask the imperial court to make the decision."

Emperor Jingtai said: "All pensions are discussed by the Ministry of War, and meritorious service will be rewarded. Where is the Minister of War?"

Zhang Qiushi stepped forward and said, "I'm here."

Emperor Jingtai asked: "Has the Ministry of War drawn up the results in the past few days?"

Zhang Qiushi handed over a memorial and said: "Back to Your Majesty, all pensions have been arranged. However, there are still three military merit calculations that require Your Majesty's nod."

"As I said, we will implement this matter today."

Emperor Jingtai said.

Zhang Qiushi said seriously: "The first person is naturally Master Du Yan. As the guard general of Chang'an, he made good arrangements. He faced the danger with only 50,000 remnant soldiers against the 600,000 barbarian army... This is a first-class achievement. According to military merit

Mr. Du wants to raise the plan by two more levels."

Emperor Jingtai thought for a moment: "Du Aiqing is already the Minister of Rites and a bachelor of the cabinet. In this way, Du Aiqing is promoted to the crown prince and tutor..."

The Crown Prince and Tutor, from the first rank!

Although it is just a false position, it is extremely prestigious! Moreover, once the prince reaches adulthood and ascends to the throne of emperor, the prince and tutor will be the chief minister of the current cabinet!

Of course, this matter has not been settled yet.

Emperor Jingtai was only in his early twenties. As for the prince... Queen Wang was pregnant with a dragon seed, but she didn't know whether it was a prince or a princess.

Even so, everyone is envious of him.

The identity of the Crown Prince and Tutor is so illustrious!

"Wei Chen, thank you, Your Majesty."

Du Yan accepted the reward generously, with a proud and arrogant look on his face, and his smile almost overflowed from his wrinkles.

When the ministers saw this, they could only curl their lips. They were sad. If I had known, I would have stayed to defend the city.

Why.

I seek wealth in danger, but the ancients will not deceive me!

Zhang Qiushi continued: "The second person is Princess Qingyang. She killed Akle in the Ancestral Temple. This is a first-class achievement."

Emperor Jingtai frowned and said: "Qingyang has been honored as the eldest princess, and her title has reached the top, so let's give her a fief. I wonder if Zhang Aiqing has a choice in her heart."

As a tool man, Zhang Qiushi said seriously: "This matter will naturally be decided by His Majesty's eloquent words. However, as a minister, I am willing to share your Majesty's worries, so I have several suggestions. One is the land of Fengyang..."

Fengyang is the ancestral land where the Li family really started the army. Of course, it cannot be sealed off at will.

Emperor Jingtai interrupted directly: "Is there anything else?"

Zhang Qiushi: "And Yuzhou..."

Yuzhou was originally the fiefdom of King Wu, but unfortunately there is no longer the lineage of King Wu.

And this was also a taboo of Emperor Jingtai.

After all, Lao Wu was with him, but unfortunately, Li Zian almost discovered the flaw at the last moment, so he could only let Ying Yi handle it.

Emperor Jingtai said: "Qingyang is my imperial sister, and I don't want her to go far away to the south of the Yangtze River. Let's find a place closer..."

"The closer one...then the only one is Chang'an."

Zhang Qiushi felt a little horrified.

Because these words were secretly conveyed to him by Princess Qingyang.

The emperor rejected two fiefdoms in succession, and the remaining Chang'an will definitely agree!

"Chang'an..."

Emperor Jingtai fell into deep thought.

Chang'an and Luoyang are only separated by a river, and it is still unclear what is going on at Emperor Wu's City, so Chang'an has become a useless place.

It would be a good idea to leave it to Qingyang.

Emperor Jingtai made a decision: "Okay, then change the title of Qingyang to Princess Chang'an, increase the number of households to 2,000, and guard Chang'an... 50,000!"

In this way, Qingyang really has real power!

And she can raise 50,000 elite soldiers openly.

Of course, with only 50,000 troops, it did not pose much of a threat in the eyes of Emperor Jingtai.

But Emperor Jingtai didn't understand one thing.

This is just the beginning of being tainted by military power!

Once the military power is divided, some things will no longer be under his control...
