Chapter 401

Wu Sansi looked at it, and it was impossible to go on like this. There was no other way, so he had to retreat to Tianjin Bridge under the protection of the soldiers' shields.Only then did he escape.

Li Xian also looked back to see this scene, but now that he was on fire, he thought Wu Sansi deserved it, so he didn't care.When he came in front of Li Hong and Muzili, before he could speak, Muzili knelt down in front of him and wept like rain, crying and saying: "Your Majesty, my Erlang went through life and death for your country, for the country, and for the people. Moreover, they don’t seek fame or gain, so what kind of provocation is this? The slaves feel panicked.”

Last night, she let Wang Hua plot to seize the Tang Dynasty, and now it is Li Xian's country again.But the use of the first few words is of great benefit. The country of Datang is yours alone. Who would not be happy to hear it?But in other words, Wang Hua was born and died for you.Even if you raise a dog, and when you see the owner wagging its tail, the owner will reward you with a bone.Besides, Wang Hua has done so many things.

After finishing speaking, the two of them fell on the ground and cried loudly. The cry was so miserable that it made people want to cry.

Li Xian was very embarrassed. He already felt that he owed Wang Hua a little, but now his apology was even heavier.Fortunately, Wu Sansi escaped back, otherwise Li Xian might tell Wu Sansi, you should clean up this mess.

But this situation has to be sorted out, he coughed and said: "You two young ladies, please get up first, I will definitely give justice to each champion in this matter."

Ever since Wang Hua became a Bachelor of Zhaowenguan, they all called Wang Hua as Wang Xueshi, that is, Li Xian himself. Sometimes he called Wang Qing, sometimes he called Wang Xueshi, or when he was angry, he called Wang Huade. This was the first time he called him the Champion .I used this honorific title to warm the hearts of the two of them.

But Li Hong raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty, do you mean to find out the minister behind the scenes?"

The minister behind the scenes?He pointed it out directly, but Li Xian didn't dare to make a sound.The person behind the scenes is Wu Sansi, if it is found out, how to deal with it, drag him to Tianjin and kill him?He scolded Wu Sansi again in his heart.

Poor Wu Sansi fled back to the palace, his ears were still hot.

But at least put on a show, so Li Xian shouted to Luoyang officials: "If you don't go down, search for the murderer immediately. Even if the capital is turned upside down, these murderers must be found."

The relevant officials in Luoyang kept slandering in their stomachs and turned the capital over?does it worth?In fact, if you want to find the murderer, if you go to Wu Sansi's mansion, you may catch all ten murderers immediately, but who has the courage to go to his mansion to search?
The most frustrating thing is that if it were someone else, this case would be easy to handle, just find ten scapegoats to come out, just take the blame and fool them.But this time Wang Hua solved two major cases of ghosts and gods in Bianzhou, Huazhou, and they didn't have the guts to fool them.This is how to do?They went down one by one with sad faces.

Seeing Li Xian's posture, Li Hong and Mu Zili obviously couldn't think about it, so they fell on the ground and just cried, unable to get up.

Li Xian is also anxious, if this matter is done today, the common people can still say that he is a loyal king, if he can't handle it well, they may call him a foolish king.So he said: "Two little ladies, I heard from Bao'er that there are two little ladies in the crown prince, Zhiguanxiongmen, and I have always admired them for a long time. You should understand that I also have my difficulties."

Even Zhiguan Xiongnan came out, and the minister behind him was taken aback when he heard it, and then wanted to laugh.

But Li Hong and Mu Zili are so easy to fool, and they won't make such a big party.So still crying.

Li Xian took a few steps, then said to them in a low voice: "I said, you two young ladies, it's okay. No, I will reward you as five-rank wives, so it's okay."

Madam Gaoming was called madam after the wives of princes and ministers after the Han Dynasty. In Tang, Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, the mothers or wives of high officials were also named Madam Gaoming.Especially the Ming and Qing Dynasties are more detailed.But first of all, it must be the mother, or the main wife, and the minister is also very high-level.Most of them are first-rank veterans with empty posts, and to show their tenderness, they named their wives as first-rank imperial wives.Receive salary but no real power.Either there is one person who has this privilege, and that is the emperor himself. In addition to the queen, there are four wives, the noble concubine, the concubine Shu, the concubine De, and the concubine Xian.The queen is the Tianzi title, and the four wives are the first-rank official titles.

I have never heard of a fifth-rank wife, and Li Hong and Mu Zili are concubines. According to the laws of the Tang Dynasty, any official is allowed to marry a concubine as his wife, otherwise he will violate the law.So even weirder.

But Li Xian's mind went blank, he just wanted to calm down the matter.And I also heard about these two little girls. After Li Baoer came back from Bianzhou, the two of them lived together as husband and wife for more than two months, and Li Baoer was in a happy mood.Therefore, he often said good things about Wang Hua in Li Xian's ears.By the way, I mentioned these two little girls.

But Li Xian wondered why Wang Hua didn't let them be concubines. Li Gu'er knew part of it and said it.Li Xian gave them an imperial order now as compensation, and with this title in the future, they will also have status in the Wang family.And he also thought, what should I do if Wang Hua doesn't accept the reward now?Reward his family.Then, on a whim in my mind, I came up with this oral instruction.

When Song Jing heard this, wasn't it nonsense?Just as he was about to go out to speak out, he was grabbed by Old Wei.Old Wei winked at him severely.Song Jing would also agree, today's situation is a bit difficult to deal with, it is impossible for the emperor to think twice about being a martial artist, but this incident has become a big one, and the common people have great public grievances.Li Xian issued this unruly imperial decree, which somewhat blocked the mouths of the people.What else?Force Li Xian to execute Wu Sansi?Don't say that there is no evidence, even if there is evidence, Li Xian will not do this.So keep going?
Li Hong and Mu Zili are both smart people, and they accept them when they know they are good, and they can't really push the emperor into a hurry.In fact, this matter is making a fuss, and I can only make a statement, otherwise everyone would think that the members of the Wang family are really easy to bully.

So the two put away their drums, put on their hammers, and brought a large group of monarchs and ministers to the Wang family.

Someone in the crowd booed.After making such a big battle, the emperor betrayed his "husband" with an imperial decree.

But they didn't think about it, what can they do to call Li Hong and Mu Zili?
It was the first time Li Xian visited Wang Hua when he came to Wang's house.Whether the emperor likes a minister does not necessarily depend on how high his status is, but mainly depends on how many times he privately visits the minister's home.For example, Zhao Gou likes to run to Qin Hui's house.Later, Qin Hui killed Yue Fei and took power, which made Zhao Gou feel jealous and regretful, and the number of runs almost disappeared.Another example is that Li Xian liked to run to Wu Sansi's house some time ago, but after the Huazhou big case, Li Xian became angry, and he never went there once for almost two months.

Therefore, it would be a great honor for Li Xian to bring this large group of civil and military officials to the Wang family in normal times.But now, although Wang Yi and his wife are a little afraid, they are the emperor after all, but there is a look of concern on their faces, and there is no joy at all.

Li Xian was not angry either. His son had just returned to Luoyang and encountered such an incident. Whoever would be a parent would not be happy. He asked, "Where is the champion?"

Wang Yi replied carefully, "It's healing."

He brought Li Xian to Wang's painting room, but no one went in after seeing it.
Last night, Wang Hua was shot by six arrows, mainly by four arrows on his legs and two on his buttocks.Seek medical attention immediately after returning home.But the two arrows on the left leg were shot too deep, the doctor did not dare to pull them out in the middle of the night, so he had to saw off the arrow posts and save them for disposal in the morning.It is currently being processed.

This is a military bow and crossbow, and the arrows are also standard military arrow clusters. Not only are they steel arrowheads, the arrows also have back whiskers to increase the lethality.Both arrows hit the bone.In the end, the doctor was so anxious that it was Wang Hua's suggestion to cut the meat and pull out the arrow.

One arrow has been dialed out and the second is now being processed.Once again, the leg was cut open on the bed sheet, and a large piece of the sheet was red with blood.But it was different from the usual treatment method. At Wang Hua's suggestion, after the dagger was burned red on the fire, it was used as a scalpel.This is for simple disinfection.But when the red-hot dagger touched Wang Hua's leg, it also made the leg smell of burnt meat.Coupled with the blood and blood, Li Xian and some ministers stretched out their heads, then retracted them.

The situation was too cruel to watch.

In fact, there are still a few smart ministers who suspect that Wang Hua wrote and directed it himself, because Wang Hua sang this bitter trick, which not only hit Wu Sansi, but also solved his current big problem, at least delayed.Now that he is like this, who will force him to get married?

But seeing this situation, one by one dismissed this idea.

Wang Hua is not feeling well either, and now there is no anesthetic, not even Mafeisan, all relying on physical strength.So I learned from Guan Gong and read a copy of "Spring and Autumn" in my hand, trying to distract myself.But after the knife was removed, it had no effect at all.The pain made his face contort, and beads of sweat the size of soybeans emerged from his head.

Sanfeng and Li Xuejun kept wiping his sweat with handkerchiefs, but they came out after wiping the front.

When the doctor saw the second arrow, he flicked it vigorously, and finally it came out too.Wang Hua also lost control, yelled, and passed out from the pain.

Li Xian didn't know what happened, he stretched his head to look again, and saw a big pool of blood flowing out of the bed, he held back his nausea and asked, "What's wrong with the Champion?"

The doctor also had profuse sweat on his head. He wiped the sweat away with his sleeves, and when he looked up, he saw Li Xian. He hurriedly fell down, and then replied: "Your Majesty mainly passed out from the pain. It's nothing serious. I'll wake up in a while. But Master Hou is seriously injured and needs to be recuperated in the past few months."

Li Xian said, "Thank you, doctor."

Then he ordered the accompanying eunuch to reward him with ten taels of gold.

Only then did she sit down and wait for Wang Hua to wake up.

The Wang family is now rich, so the house they bought is also very large, and the living room is very spacious.But the early courts were all important ministers, but how many important ministers does a Tang Dynasty have?Because of Li Xian's greeting, almost all the more than 100 ministers came over.Therefore, only dozens of veteran ministers and real important ministers had seats to sit down, while the rest of the ministers stood aside.Even so, the living room was still packed.

Li Xian kept on talking, he and Wang Yi talked about the family affairs, and the victim's parents warmed his heart.

The main thing is to talk about Wang Hua, especially where Wang Hua learned his skills.

But after a while also came the interest.Knowing the origin of Wang's painting skills, the Wang family used to be a small noble family, and several people from their ancestors were small officials, so there are many books in the family.Wang Hua liked to read books since he was a child, and he got his knowledge from these books.I also learned that when Wang was the poorest painter, he once used branches to write and draw on the sandy ground, and taught the three phoenixes, the three phoenixes and the four phoenixes, to write with branches.All the sisters' knowledge was taught by Wang Hua alone.

Just one thing, how did Wang Hua recognize these characters?
Asked Wang Yi, Wang Yi just shook his head in confusion.At that time, he was thinking about how to take revenge and regain his poor family property, so he was interested in educating his children.

They called Sanfeng again, but Sanfeng didn't know about it, but Wang Hua often told them stories when they were young.Speaking of this, she couldn't stop crying, the second brother was too kind to her.

In order to make her happy, Li Xian handed over a handkerchief to wipe away her tears and asked her what story she told.

Sanfeng stammered and told some stories that Wang Hua once told.It is mainly the story content of "Arabian Tales", "Andersen's Fairy Tales" and "Grimm's Fairy Tales".Sanfeng told the story of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves.

But now the culture is very barren, Li Xian can listen to it with gusto.

But the doctor came out of the room again and said that Wang Hua had woken up.

Li Xian then got up from the chair and came to the room.

Li Xuejun and Li Hong were about to set up Wang Hua and asked Mu Zili to change the bed sheet.But before he got up, the wound was affected, Wang Hua grinned in pain, and almost cried out.The three women had no choice but to help him down again.

Seeing Li Xian coming in, Wang Hua said, "Your Majesty, pardoning ministers cannot perform the ceremony of seeing you."

"Wang Qing, it's okay, I'm very happy to see that your life is not in danger."

Wang Hua didn't say a word.

Li Xian also knew that he had resentment, so he said: "But there is one thing I don't understand, and I want to ask Wang Qing for advice."

"Your Majesty, kill the humble minister."

"No, I just want to ask you a question, am I a faint king? Am I a tyrant?"

Li Xian is not a stupid king, like Emperor Gaozong of Song Dynasty, Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty, and Emperor Xizong of Ming Dynasty are considered stupid kings, nor is he a tyrant, like King Zhou of Shang, Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty, and Emperor Qin Shihuang are considered tyrants.He can only be regarded as a mediocre gentleman, and he is of the same type as Song Zhenzong.

So Wang Hua replied calmly: "No, Your Majesty."

Li Xian stared at him. He didn't know what Wang Hua was thinking. He was very satisfied to see that Wang Hua's eyes were not fake.He also said: "Just now your two concubines complained in the south of Tianjin Bridge, saying that I treated you badly. But I have suffered even more. I issued two edicts to let you enter the court, but you refused. Let What should I do? And I don’t understand, I’m not a fool or a tyrant, why Wang Qing doesn’t want to assist me?”

Reuse twice?

The first time was that Li Xian was eager to stabilize the court, so he rewarded him generously.But apart from the benefit of being a Wen County Duke, the Minister of Rites is really a weird appointment.

The six ministries of the imperial court and the Ministry of War are in charge of the selection and decree of the military and guards of the world, and they are capable of acting.The Ministry of Punishment is in charge of criminal law and government orders, and it also has some advanced theories.The Ministry of Industry is in charge of all the workers in the world, and he is more capable of taking charge.The Ministry of Finance is in charge of the households and well fields in the world, and he can also be in charge.That is, the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the selection and assessment of officials from all over the world, and I can barely do it myself.But the Ministry of Rites?For myself, isn't it that the pot is not opened and the pot is lifted?

The six departments of the imperial court can't do it, but so can Jiuqing.At least the Taifu Temple in Jiuqing, which handles wealth, Sinong Temple, which handles warehouses, Dali Temple, which handles prisons, and Weiwei Temple, which handles cultural relics, can all hold important positions in it.As for the Shaofu Supervisor who is in charge of all kinds of craftsmanship, the Military Weapons Supervisor who is in charge of armor and crossbows, the Jiangzuo Supervisor who is in charge of construction, the Dushui Supervisor who is in charge of Chuanze, and the Guozijian who is in charge of education, among the five prisons, he can hold important positions in it.If it really doesn't work, let yourself take up an important position in the province as the secretary in charge of the national library, or some positions in the Yushitai with low positions and high power.

But it happened to be the Minister of Rites.

Do yourself a favor?
Yesterday's appointment dropped from the third rank to the fourth rank, and it was even weirder.Originally, Shang Shusheng became a chicken threat, and let himself be a deputy.

If you don't even confide in me, how can I help you willingly?

Emperor, that is to scare the common people, not to mention Mu Zili, there are several people who covet your position now.

But he couldn't say, and turned to Li Hong and Mu Zili, and asked, "What did you do this morning?"

Li Xian waved his hand and said, "Wang Qing, don't blame them. I would like to thank them for reminding me. But Wang Qing, today I asked you if you would like to assist me? And I will immediately order that Wu Sir, I will give you an explanation."

"Your Majesty, absolutely not." Wang Hua held back the pain, sat up, and dissuaded.

"Why?" Li Xian was stunned. Now that Wang Hua and Wu Sansi were incompatible, he should be happy to hear that he made this imperial decree. Why did he object?

"This assassination case was not done by King Dejing."

"Who did that?" Li Xian asked with wide eyes.

"I don't know either. But last night when King Dejing visited my home, I once said frankly to him that the public should be public and the private should be private. As long as you don't abuse the people and don't betray the country, you can only have political opinions. There is no great enmity between life and death. There are no enemies, no friends, and everything is for the strength of the court. Not only with him, but also with King Pingyang and I. I don’t think there is any grievance between individuals. Although King Dejing There is no clear statement, but I think that even if King Dejing is dissatisfied with the minister, he should listen to the minister and explain it. So it is impossible to send an assassin to attack the minister last night."

Makes sense.

But Li Hong was dumbfounded when he heard it. It turned out that Wang Hua wanted to bring down Wu Sansi.Right now is a great opportunity, but Wang Hua is speaking for Wu Sansi.

Could it be that Erlang is so painful and stupid?
Li Xian also didn't react, and asked after a while, "Wang Qing, are you sure that the assassin last night has nothing to do with Wu Qing?"

Wang Hua grinned again. It was painful. The wound had two big openings. Although he was talking now, the wound was still in severe pain.He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, I have said that public affairs should be public and private affairs should be private. Although I think that what King Dejing is doing now is because of His Majesty's favor, there are many things that are not done well, and even get carried away. But last night's assassination The case certainly has nothing to do with him."

It definitely doesn't matter if Wang Hua comes again.Li Hong almost jumped up in anger.
