I just like the Prime Minister

Naturally, others can't care about the emperor who is ninety-five years old, let alone a Khitan who "meeted by chance".

However, Li Chengzuo managed quite a few people. After all, he was the emperor, and the whole of Dayu, which was called "Heaven and Chaoshang Kingdom" by the barbarians, belonged to him.

The imperial guards of the capital finally arrived late, and the seriously injured assassin finally realized that there was no longer any delay. Surrounded on all sides, he wittily raised thousands of dust like mist, blocking the vision of the shadow and the imperial guards. , After the dust settled, there was no one left.

The capital of Dayu Kingdom, under the emperor's feet, let these assassins come and go freely. The emperor was furious, and felt ashamed of the land left by his ancestors.

The commander of the imperial guards is called Han Rusong, he is the favorite student of the Marshal Pei who is now trapped in Liaodong, and his family background is the descendant of a famous general in this dynasty.He was brave and good at fighting. Before his death, the first emperor considered carefully, and after thinking twice, he chose this man to guard the imperial city for his prodigal son Li Chengzuo. He was absolutely loyal and loyal.

This Commander Han is good in everything, the only thing is that he is too straightforward. He never knows how to judge the situation and look at people's faces. After investigating those related links to the end, I finally bite the bullet and go to the emperor's eyes, and when I am scolded, I will give some "achievements" that make up for it, so as to reduce punishment.

However, this Commander Han likes to take a slanted sword.

Li Chengzuo stopped the four shadows who were going to chase after him, and under the escort of the four of them, he took Jiang Xizhu out of the "Drunken Flower Yin" that was bombarded by letter arrows, and bumped into it head-on. He didn't know if he was here to rescue him, or to catch up with Han Rusong who was being scolded.

Commander Han is eight feet long and has a hulking back, and his armor is even darker in the dark night, but he was covered with powder or flour by the assassin. Noodle cylinder.

As soon as Li Chengzuo saw the disgraced commander, he was immediately happy: "Oh, what a coincidence, Han Aiqing, I met the assassin during the night tour with the prime minister, and you also met?"

Han Rusong even went to look at the dirt on the emperor's body, and then he was flattered by Li Chengzuo's "polite", and hurriedly knelt down to express his feelings: "Your Majesty, unfortunately, I just saw your letter arrow. I came here specially to rescue you."

The four shadows wear black cloaks and black veils to cover their faces.Jiang Xizhu watched from the side, stunned to see the splendor from the faces of the four of them who didn't show much.

"... Aiqing is here to rescue you." Li Chengzuo snorted, "Then Aiqing came quickly enough."

From Li Chengzuo's tone, Jiang Xizhu heard the usual fault-finding, and was about to refute Commander Han. By the way, he hurriedly arranged for the imperial guards in the capital to block the nine gates to track down the assassin. He heard that the word "turn" might not exist in that brain circuit at all. Master Han spoke first.

Han Rusong said: "Going back to the emperor, ever since I saw the flames of the letter arrow soaring into the sky, I dare not delay for a moment."

Jiang Xizhu: "..."

At best, this Commander Han is called Chizixin, but at worst, he is probably lacking in heart.How did he live in the officialdom that was said to be in a dangerous situation with such a straightforward appearance?

The faction in the court is intricate and complicated. The Qi Wang Party, the eldest son of the former emperor, and the Fengcheng Hou Party are all at odds with each other on the surface, not to mention that the Queen Mother's mother's family is watching the fire from the other side.

The court hall is like a pool of muddy water at the moment, the surface is calm and the waves are turbulent underneath.

Who would have thought that such a "cleaning out of the mud without staining" could survive in such a mess.

Even Prime Minister Jiang, who is well aware of the intrigues of the government, now deeply suspects that he has wrongly blamed those people who usually hide their knives in their smiles.

According to his appointment by the late emperor, the late emperor and Li Chengzuo were really biological. Before he died, he was still thinking conscientiously about what kind of wonderful thing he should leave behind, so that he could save this worthless prodigal for himself. The son was furious.

Li Chengzuo was obviously also choked by Han Rusong, and finally realized that he was the one who was playing with this love affair, and he could only be the one who died of anger. He resolutely said: "Let me investigate! This is an assassin sent by the Khitan people, and I am afraid that your mentor is also involved!"

In fact, this sentence has already been said very seriously. The two words "involvement" are included in the involvement of cronies and entanglements.

However, Han Rusong's face was heavy but without fear, he changed from his confused and blue-headed appearance before, bowed deeply, and when he raised his head again, his eyes were firm, completely upright, loyal and courageous: "Your Majesty, I will definitely investigate this matter to the end. , Let those assassins come and go. If you are biased, come and see me, the emperor can rest assured."

Clank and iron bones, loud and clear.

People who don't understand others have unique intelligence, because they don't know more key points, so they only follow one rule.This principle must vary from person to person, but for Han Rusong, who is as thick as a tree trunk, this principle is loyalty to the emperor.

The heart of a child is innocent, and the wisdom is like a fool.Once determined, there is no second-guessing, and no one is in front of you. Once you violate the principle, you can only be an enemy.

Jiang Xizhu seemed to understand the intention of the first emperor to leave such a strange man to Li Chengzuo.

Li Chengzuo got such a guarantee, and lifted his eyelids that were clearly written with "I'm not happy".

Jiang Xizhu was afraid that he would say something inappropriate, and was trying to find an excuse to cover up the topic, and hurriedly sent the ancestor back to the heavily guarded palace to make peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, before he came out to smooth things over, Li Chengzuo obediently got off the donkey by himself.

"Okay." He still couldn't see any joy in his peach blossom eyes, but he was dumbfounded like a firecracker soaked in water. Others didn't seem to have the majesty of an emperor, and his tone sounded purely as if he was comforting himself. Go to get angry, "It's a mess here, go back to the palace, didn't you see that the prime minister was injured for escorting him! What are you doing! Xuan imperial doctor! Show me!"

Jiang Chengxiang, who was brought out to make an excuse, moved his eyes, but he didn't make a sound, and endured it in silence for a long time. After the officials at the bottom frantically arranged for the emperor to get on the chariot, he followed in with him calmly.

Jiang Xizhu is the emperor's companion, and he has been close to him since he was young. The emperor's partiality for the prime minister can be seen by the government and the public, and there are too many preferential treatment in various aspects.Therefore, no one thought it was wrong for Jiang Xizhu to follow up at this time, even Li Chengzuo took it for granted.

The chariot wobbled towards the palace.

"Come here and have a look." In the car, Li Chengzuo looked behind Jiang Xizhu's ear persistently. In fact, he had seen it many times, but he still felt nervous, for fear that something unpredictable would happen to the wound suddenly.

Fortunately, the wound was really just a superficial wound. Although Prime Minister Jiang was a scholar, he was still young. This small wound had scabbed over, and he no longer looked as eye-catching as before.

"It's okay." Li Chengzuo breathed a sigh of relief, "Junchi, what do you want to ask?"

Jiang Xi Zhuxin paused for a moment, closed his eyes, and after a moment of silence, he lowered his voice and said, "Did you already know about the strangeness of Liaodong?" The Khitan people had already taken the lead in the war, so they wouldn't also There is no need to send people to assassinate you for no reason, what is it that is forcing them to draw their wages? You have been stopping me from knowing about the Liaodong War, because of this?"

Li Chengzuo took Jiang Xizhu to lean back without a trace, adjusted a comfortable posture for him to rest, and raised his peach blossom eyes.

"There is a problem with the Khitan royal family." Li Chengzuo said, "It was reported earlier that their old woman who is in charge of the family may not be able to suppress it, causing the uncle and nephew to work independently... I originally thought that the two of them were After discussing who will win the world, whoever has the final say, now it seems that one person may have taken advantage of the other person's decision. The one was so stupid that he sold his family fortune, and the other was so frustrated that he could only seek compensation from heresy. "

"You really know." Jiang Xizhu said with a frown, "The emperor chose to leave the palace today, has it been arranged long ago?"

... Otherwise, with the emperor's temper, why would he carry a letter arrow for help with him.

Li Chengzuo paused: "Actually, there is no... But it is better to hit the sun than to choose the day. Who knows, it will be a coincidence."

It was really arranged.

Jiang Xizhu is so smart, he has already read the cause and effect in his heart after receiving the emperor's plausible answer - some details are too trivial, if it is not because he knows Li Chengzuo, he will not be able to discover it at all.

The imperial court left by the first emperor is undoubtedly a mess with gold and jade on the outside, and the inside is riddled with holes. It has been festering since the late emperor was lingering on the sick bed.Everyone knows this, so they can only see through without telling the truth, and maintain a superficial calm.

In the eyes of outsiders, Li Chengzuo has always been a prodigal son who can reincarnate. It stands to reason that he does not have the diligence and calmness of the late emperor, let alone any great talent. It is already a bit difficult for him to sit on the throne and maintain the superficial calm.

He, the emperor, did not do well. He fished for three days and posted on the net for two days. Even a foolish king was unprofessional.If it wasn't for tonight, Jiang Xizhu might never be able to see the clues.

"Letting foreign assassins into the capital is the Imperial Guard's dereliction of duty. Han Rusong cannot escape the blame. Why didn't the Emperor convict him?"

Li Chengzuo seemed to have expected that he would ask this question a long time ago, with a faint smile on his brows and eyes, like a kind and amiable benevolent king who knows everything.

But Jiang Xizhu didn't even give him a chance to explain, so he took it directly: "Because the emperor knows that Commander Han is a pure minister selected by the late emperor. If he comes to guard, you can do other things with peace of mind, so you can't change it."

Li Chengzuo: "..."

Why are you robbing me of my words? !

After Jiang Xizhu finished speaking, his expression was indifferent, but one hand silently grasped the hem of his clothes.

He has understood since he was a child that the distinction between monarch and minister is an insurmountable gap between him and Li Chengzuo in his life, so he is willing to bury those unspeakable thoughts in the abyss where the sun cannot be seen.

If those numerous and complicated connections will become Li Chengzuo's shackles, as one of the links of this shackles, he is willing to cut them off for him with his own hands.He can never marry a wife or have children all his life, and he is willing to follow the example of those loyal ministers who have been famous forever, and maintain this peaceful country for him without making a sound.

But he knew that he suddenly realized tonight that Li Chengzuo might not even need these.

How could his martial arts of breaking the strings with bare hands be practiced in a day?Does his calmness after encountering an accident mean that he is even a little stupid?As he said, he knows everything, grievances and grievances, thieves and ministers, I am afraid that he has a clear list in his heart.

He doesn't need anyone to maintain the whitewashed peace for him, and naturally he doesn't need him either.
