At noon, the emperor and his ministers went to Xuanwu Gate to read out the imperial edict, hold a military parade, and reward the three armies.
Qian Zhen, Song Yuanshan, and some generals in Wuzhou each received rewards.
As for Liu Xia's personal entourage, although the emperor did not increase their official positions, everyone rewarded them for their merits.
Among them, Qian Zhen's reward was the most generous. Although the emperor did not give him another official position, he rewarded him with the third rank of Captain Shangqingche.
This is one of the military honors, and has the same meaning as the title.[
After the military parade ended, everyone discovered that there was no reward from Liu Xia. Everyone did not know what this meant, and they were all puzzled.
However, Liu Xia obviously didn't take these things to heart. He looked very worried the whole day.
When everyone returned to the camp, Liu Xia summoned his confidants and gathered them all together.
Zhang Zong, Liu Liansheng, Tong Dawei, Song Hanxing, Yuan Binglong, Qian Zhen and others gathered together.
"Your Majesty, why have you summoned us now?"
Zhang Zong and others were all beaming with joy. After all, everyone had received a reward this time.
"Everyone, this morning, the princelings launched a brutal attack on my life. They tried to erase my achievements and put me to death. Fortunately, the emperor did not deal with this matter today."
Liu Xia smiled.
After hearing this, everyone was shocked.
No wonder there is no reward from Liu Xia today.
It turns out something went wrong here.
"It doesn't make sense."
Immediately, Qian said angrily.
"Calm down, Mr. Qian, calm down. The princelings have never interacted with us, so why would they suddenly attack us?"
Zhang Zong quickly held down Qian Zhen and turned around to ask.
"You will know this later. However, this is not the point. As the saying goes, raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while. Now that the king is in trouble, are you willing to give me this bad breath?"
Liu Xia smiled lightly.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. When they slander Your Majesty, they are slandering us. Whatever your instructions are, just say, go up the mountain of knives or go down into the sea of fire. We don't have any objection."
Immediately, Song Hanxing and others expressed their stance one after another.[
"Hey, it doesn't have to be as serious as going up the mountain of knives or falling into the sea of fire. Come together and we'll tell you."
Immediately, Liu Xia whispered in everyone's ears.
When Liu Xia finished speaking, everyone was stunned and stood there in a daze.
"This matter is settled, we will take action tonight."
Liu Xia smiled.
"Your Majesty, there is something wrong with this."
Liu Liansheng licked his lips and said.
"What's wrong? Are you going to let me just sit there and wait for death? That's it. You can take all the experts here and go to Longdu in disguise. Tonight, give them a counterattack."
Liu Xia said.
Everyone saw that Liu Xia was determined, so they had no choice but to carry out the plan. At that moment, they all went about their business.
At night, there was a violent storm and snow in Longdu.
Under such bad weather, even the bustling Longdu became quiet early.
Qian Zhen took several of his subordinates and hid outside the mansion of Liu Jiande, the Minister of Household Affairs.
There was a curfew in the imperial city at the moment, and apart from the patrolling guards, there was not even a ghost on the road.
"Boss, isn't this too cruel? Killing people can only be done with a nod of the head."
One of Qian Zhen's subordinates curled his lips and said.
They were all born bandits, and they were engaged in the business of killing people and selling goods. However, what happened tonight, even they who were born in the underworld, felt that it was a bit too sinister.
"Don't talk nonsense. Your Majesty is our benefactor. As a human being, you must repay your kindness. Although this method is a bit despicable, we must repay your kindness to Your Majesty."
At this time, Qian Zhen covered his face and said with a pair of guilty eyes.
All the bandits sighed softly.
Immediately, Qian Zhen and others turned over and entered Liu Jiande's mansion.[
Although there is a nursing home in the mansion, it is not a problem for these bandits.
They quietly came to Liu Jiande's bedroom, lifted up the tiles in the bedroom, opened the bamboo tube, and blew hard, and a stream of dark green liquid fell to the ground, and then evaporated quickly.
Then, Qian Zhen quickly turned over, opened the door, and gave Liu Jiande a slap in the face, but Liu Jiande and his wife were sleeping soundly.
Apparently it was the venom that played a role.
Without saying a word, Qian Zhen loaded Liu Jiande into a huge sack and quickly left the room.
When they just climbed up the eaves, they saw Dabao also carrying a sack and running from the direction of Fang Qiu's house.
The two groups had a tacit understanding, and although they passed by each other, there was no intersection.
At this time, Qian Zhen quickly carried Liu Jiande towards Fang Qiu's house.
When they arrived at Fang Qiu's house, they found that the guards had been stationed.
They entered Fang Qiu's daughter's room recklessly and threw Liu Jiande onto Fang Qiu's daughter's bed.
At this moment, Qian Zhen took out an aphrodisiac and gave it to Liu Jiande to take.
"Hey, boss. This is really cruel."
"Your Majesty is worthy of being a prince. It is true that evil people need to be punished by evil people."
"Stop talking nonsense, let's go. Go to the next house. We are busy enough tonight."
At that moment, Qian Zhen and others left here.
Wait until dawn just breaks, and in half an hour it will be morning.
Liu Jiande was in a trance, feeling that his throat was extremely thirsty.
But I don’t know why, but I feel surprisingly sleepy today.
Over the years as an official in Longdu, he has developed a fixed biological clock, so he will wake up at this time, but today he feels unable to open his eyes.
He moved his hand slightly and touched a fiery body. The skin was so delicate that it felt like warm jade.
Liu Jiande was in a trance, thinking he was still dreaming.
Because last night he dreamed of having an affair with a beautiful woman.
People over fifty have not had such a sweet dream for a long time.
His wife is seven years older than him. Although there are many wives and concubines at home, he has long passed the age of strong desires.
But last night, he seemed to be back to his boyhood again.
At this moment, Liu Jiande was stroking the delicate shoulders of the woman next to him, thinking to himself how his wife's skin had become so good.
So Liu Jiande opened his eyes, but for a moment he was stunned.
At this moment, lying on the bed with him was a strange woman.
She was only twenty years old and good-looking. She was curled up in his arms like a kitten.
Liu Jiande's mind was racing rapidly. Looking carefully, Liu Jiande sat up in an instant.
"Lian'er?"
Liu Jiande collapsed instantly. This is Fang Shangshu’s daughter!
At this time, Lian'er also slowly opened her eyes.
Immediately, Lian'er was also stunned.
Looking at the strange man in front of me, I thought it was a dream.
I hurriedly rubbed my eyes and realized that this was not a dream.
So, she subconsciously looked at herself and found that she was naked.
"ah!!!!!!"
A sharp cry suddenly pierced the quiet morning in Longdu.
Liu Jiande was dumbfounded. He hurriedly covered Lian'er's mouth and said, "Don't scream, auntie. What's going on?"
He didn't even understand it in his own mind.
If others knew about this, how could he explain it?
What a famous name for a lifetime!
Suddenly, Liu Jiande broke out in a cold sweat.
However, Lian'er didn't seem to cooperate with him. She kicked him off the bed and started crying heartbrokenly.
The guards who heard the cry rushed in immediately.
Seeing this scene in front of them, they were all dumbfounded.
At the moment, the Fang family's mansion was in a commotion, and the chickens and dogs were restless.
At the same time, the Liu family's mansion was also in chaos.
Because, when Fang Qiu opened his eyes, he found that he was sleeping on the same bed as Liu Jiande's wife and daughter-in-law.
At the same time, there was Liu Jiande's son on the bed.
And Fang Qiu's chrysanthemum suddenly felt a burning pain.
Only then did he realize that Liu Jiande's son was hugging him tightly.
In an instant, Fang Qiu collapsed.
The crash was a mess.
At this moment, Liu Xia was sitting in a carriage, walking slowly on the official road leading to the imperial city.
Outside the car, heavy snow was still falling, dry and cold air poured into the car, and the mottled walls in the imperial city were covered with ice.
Dabao is currently reporting on his achievements with great joy.
Before Liu Xia finished listening, he couldn't help but ask: "You mean, you threw Liu Jiande's son on Fang Qiu's bed?"
"Amitabha, it's a sin. Even a poor monk doesn't think about it, so I gave him a few more aphrodisiacs. I guess Mr. Fang enjoyed it last night."
After Dabao finished speaking, Liu Xia and Dabao burst out laughing.
Unknowingly, Liu Xia arrived outside the main entrance of the palace.
At this moment, many officials who came to attend the morning court arrived.
According to the rules of the morning court, these officials had to wait here half an hour in advance. Today, the time has arrived, but unfortunately the carriage is only half the size of yesterday.
After getting off the bus, Liu Xia chatted with acquaintances such as Mr. Xue Ge.
After waiting for a while, Liu Xia looked around and said, "It's strange, why hasn't Liu Shang arrived yet?"
Everyone suddenly became curious.
When Xue Ge heard what Liu Xia said, Liu Xia didn't say anything about the two people's participation in the performance yesterday, but today Liu Xia asked why.
There's probably something fishy here.
However, Xue Ge was always a sensible person and immediately said with a smile: "Everyone, it's still early, why don't we go to their mansion and call them. Otherwise, we won't delay the court."
Liu Xia secretly raised her middle finger towards Mr. Xue Ge.
Xue Ge was not good at all, but he was curious about how Liu Xia fought back.
So, Mr. Xue Ge took several officials and headed towards Liu Shang's home.
As soon as they arrived outside the mansion, they heard that there was chaos inside the mansion.
Without waiting for anyone to notify him, Mr. Xue Ge rushed in.
As a result, it was an eye-opener.
At Fang Shangshu's home, Liu Jiande was naked and surrounded by Fang's guards.
And the daughter of the Fang family is seeking death and survival, and the entire Fang family is in chaos.
Of course, the situation in the Fang Mansion is better, but the Liu Mansion is more lively.
Liu Jiande's wife and son were chasing Fang Qiu with a sword. When they saw Mr. Xue Ge coming in, Fang Qiu hugged Mr. Xue Ge's thigh.
A combination of snot and tears is a miserable experience.
Even though Mr. Xue Ge had been the military minister for half his life, he was a little dumbfounded when he saw the situation in front of him.
I couldn't help cursing Liu Xia in my heart, damn, you were too cruel.
