Two groups of people were confronting each other. On one side was Xu Hexing leading the guards of Zuo Xiangfu, all of whom had straight bodies and solemn expressions; on the other side were Wang Geng, Feng Zhong, Ding Ba and others, all of whom were arrogant and looked fierce.
"I'm telling you, this is the palace city, don't mess around." Wang Geng shouted from time to time.
In the eyes of Xu Hexing, his behavior was just bluff and extremely disdainful.
Dingba huddled behind the carriage, very nervous.
He is just a young boy, and unlike those guards, he is afraid of a real fight.
It was almost dusk when I finally saw a group of officials coming out of the palace gate.
Today's imperial meeting ended as early as noon. The main person who participated in the internal affairs in the afternoon was Jiantai Yushi. If we look into the reason, it was a matter of party struggle, and the Yamen who were doing practical work naturally did not need to participate.
When this group of censors left the palace, some were dejected, while others were elated.
Ding Ba couldn't tell who was from his Alang family. He looked up for a while and saw Li Xia's upright figure. The white shirt still stood out among the blue and purple official robes.
Wearing a white shirt is because Li Xia is still Bai Ding.
Dingba hurriedly ran up and whispered: "Xiao Langjun, if someone wants to beat us, why don't you avoid it?"
Li Xia turned his head and glanced at Xu Hexing and others, and said: "Ignore him, let someone help the wounded..."
Over there, an official walked up to Xu Hexing and sighed.
"The plaque in Wende Hall will not be changed tomorrow."
If the plaque is not changed, it means that another court meeting will be held to announce important appointments...to dismiss the prime minister.
Xu Hexing still didn't want to believe it and stayed there blankly.
He originally wanted to guard the palace gate and wait until the left prime minister brought down the traitors, then he could see Li Xia die, but...
Seeing the running dogs of the Ding family helping Nie Zhongyou, Lin Zi, and Liu Jinsuo get into the carriage, Xu Hexing clenched his hands tightly and finally strode towards Li Xia.
He knew it was irrational, but he couldn't help it.
Wang Geng and Feng Zhong quickly stopped him.
"Li Xia!" Xu Hexing shouted.
"Huh?" Li Xia turned around.
"You killed Zhong Xiqing." Xu Hexing suppressed his anger and spat out these words one by one.
"Then what?"
Xu Hexing said: "If I had gone to hunt you down that night, you would have been dead, and I would not have allowed you to help the evildoer today."
Li Xia said: "The one who dies is you."
"Oh, I won't let you take advantage of this."
"When you were monitoring Cheng Yuanfeng in Yingri Garden, Zhong Xiqing ordered food from Fengle Building once and brought Sanxian noodles once. He liked the food near Fengle Bridge. And you don't care about this. It doesn't matter what you eat.
, just don’t add onions.”
Xu Hexing's face darkened.
Li Xia added: "I asked about this at Fengle Tower. Zhong Xiqing is a very nice person. All the guys there know him."
Xu Hexing said: "When did you..."
"On the day you sent people to Dengwick Lane, I also checked on you, and it wasn't until evening that I saw the sea arrest documents."
"you……"
Li Xia said: "If it were you who came to search for me, you wouldn't go home at night, because you're not like Zhong Xiqing, you would stay on guard all night. And I would dress up as a boy from Fengle Building and arrive with a food box.
In front of you, he said, 'Zhong Sanlang told me that Xu Si had not slept for two nights and asked me to bring food.' You were very sleepy and didn't care about this, so I stabbed you to death."
Xu Hexing's face became very ugly, and he said coldly: "You can't succeed, this is absolutely difficult to do."
"It is indeed difficult to do, but have you ever thought that the person you are hunting would dare to turn around and assassinate you?"
"You can't do it..."
"The key is, have you thought about this?"
Xu Hexing did not answer.
Li Xia said: "You are very similar to a person. He died in my hands."
"I, Xu Hexing, am not like anyone else."
"I killed Zhong Xiqing because he brought people to kill me and my teammates. I won't kill you because you can no longer threaten me."
When Li Xia said this, he realized that he had nothing more to say to Xu Hexing.
He just felt that he had killed too many people since his rebirth, so he advised the other party, "Don't come looking for death."
"That's it." Li Xia said, turning around and getting on the carriage.
Ding Ba gave Li Xia a flattering hand, then turned to look at Xu Hexing's livid face, showing the look of a villain who was triumphant.
"How amazing is it to be a protégé of the Prime Minister? In front of our young gentleman...hehe..."
"Still not driving?" Li Xia asked.
"Yes, yes, I will drive now."
"Let's go." Wang Geng and Feng Zhong were also arrogant and led others to follow.
Xu Hexing watched as they protected the carriage and passed by slowly.
When he thought of Zhong Xiqing, he felt the guilt in his heart forcing him to suffocate.
Back then we were determined to revitalize the country, but Zhong Xiqing died because of him...
Just thinking of this, Xu Hexing suddenly saw Uncle Xie Fang slowly walking out of the palace gate with unsteady steps.
Uncle Xie Fang has taken off his official hat, revealing his gray hair, and his dark purple official robe has also been taken off, leaving only a middle coat.
He is no longer the prime minister of the dynasty, he has become an ordinary old man.
"Prime Minister Zuo...Prime Minister Zuo...why is this?!"
In Xuande Hall, candles were lit.
Only the military minister was still preparing for a new round of discussions.
Jia Sidao turned his back to the ministers and handed a small cricket cage to Zhao Yun. The monarch and his ministers took the opportunity to say a few personal words.
"We can't be free today." Zhao Yun said, "It's important to decide on Commander Shu first."
He regretted a little. Discussions during the day were interesting, but he wasted a lot of time.
"Yes." Jia Sidao said in a low voice: "Since Uncle Fang has resigned, Yu Hui will never serve as the commander-in-chief of Shu again."
It is extremely troublesome to change the commander at the last moment, and the whole body will be affected by the slightest change. It cannot be discussed tonight, and there will be a big court meeting at midnight, which makes people even more irritated.
Since the southern crossing, there have always been voices criticizing the leader and the faction. When Zhao Yun took over the throne, he also had the ambition to regain the country, but what could he do if the huge burden came down? As a last resort, Zhao Kui gave up the main battle and
Xie Fang Shu who used Zhuhe.
Uncle Xie Fang left for less than an hour today, but he left a lot of mess behind. Zhao Yun already slightly missed his good qualities.
Uncle Xie Fang is honest and upright, and he is a wise prime minister. Unfortunately, he does not know the military affairs, and he has constant conflicts with Zhao Kui and Yu Jie. Of course Zhao Yun knows these, but if he really knows the military affairs, he is afraid that he will become a powerful prime minister again.
Hateful people who don't know how to fight, but want to be the prime minister. They want to be Qin Hui, but have no ability. If it were Qin Hui, the southwest war would not be like this... Such virtuous prime ministers, just get out.
Thinking of this, the little benefit Uncle Xie Fang had in his mind was wiped out.
Zhao Yun only felt that it was difficult for the emperor to do so.
There is no other way, let’s appoint a Shu commander first...
In Guanchao Villa, Han Chengxu lit candles in the hall, walked to the courtyard and waited eagerly.
After a while, I saw Li Xia coming back with everyone.
"Xiao Langjun is back."
"Let's help them in first."
When Li Xia entered the hall, he saw the expectant eyes of Gao Changshou, Gao Mingyue, and Han Qiaoer. He said, "We have cleared our grievances, don't worry. The rewards will come out in a few days."
"I know you can succeed in what you do." Gao Changshou said with a smile.
"Don't worry, there was a traffic jam on the way back, so I'm a little late."
Liu Jinsuo said: "Yes, it's too congested, and my brother was injured again, so he can only take the car."
"It's the evening rush hour." Li Xia whispered to himself.
He was slightly in a trance. He went back to more than 700 years ago, when there was a serious traffic jam on the streets of Hangzhou, but he found some familiar life atmosphere.
"Let's eat first."
"I didn't cook." Han Chengxu rubbed his clothes, looking a little embarrassed, "After all, this is..."
"It doesn't matter, I'll ask Ding Dagou to bring the food."
"Brother Li, aren't we going back?"
"After dinner..." Li Xia was halfway through his words. He looked down at Han Qiaoer's expectant eyes, then glanced at everyone, and suddenly said: "Then go back, let's go to Fengle Building to order some food."
"Okay! If you ask me, it's too uncomfortable to live here. I'd be happy to eat steamed buns outside!" Liu Jinsuo said loudly.
"Shut up." Lin Zi said, "Young Master has already said you want to eat at Fengle Tower."
"Hahaha, Lin Zi, you can finally speak. I thought you were mute."
"Why am I mute?"
"Ouch, I don't know who said, 'Isn't it just the face saint?' I didn't even dare to belch from the beginning to the end."
"you shut up!"
Liu Jinsuo said: "Shut up, just shut up, just like you did in the palace..."
As soon as the two people spoke, the atmosphere immediately became heated.
Even Nie Zhongyou had a smile on his face.
Everyone obviously didn't want to live in the Ding family's villa, so they immediately packed up their things and wanted to move out...
Personally, Li Xia actually likes it here better. Living in a mansion is definitely more comfortable than a small shabby house, and there are many servants to serve.
Ding Dagou said, "This Li Langjun likes luxury and is born to value human life."
It doesn't matter if you like luxury. In Li Xia's eyes, these are really not "luxury", just convenience.
But his companions couldn't stand being stared at by those people, and Li Xia was willing to accommodate them on this matter.
Ding Dagou looked at the moving scene and was at a loss.
"This, this, this... Mr. Li Xiaolang, Alang didn't... never tell you that you can leave."
Li Xia glanced at him and said, "Give me two hundred dollars and prepare an extra carriage."
"But this..."
"Xiang Ding knows where I live, so you can do it."
Ding Dagou was frightened by his momentum and had no choice but to do as he was told.
Fortunately, Li Xia also brought several guards and servants from the Ding family with him, so he would not lose anyone.
Ding Dagou watched the carriage leave Guanchao Villa and couldn't help but feel deeply.
"Who is this? I didn't stay for two days, but I already spent 500 yuan away..."
