In the following days, the capital of Jinling was in chaos.

On the banks of the Qinhuai River, various anecdotes of the palace and folk stories quickly spread among the colorful lotus of the waiters.

First, a bizarre disappearance case caused panic. It was said that there was a pair of charming Yangzhou sisters in Qingxifang. The sister was gentle and charming, quiet and gentle, and her face was like a peach blossom, with delicate curves, one was gentle and the other was lively. The sisters were all familiar with both pianos, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they were famous for their time. Among the regular guests of the sisters, in addition to the powerful and powerful in the court, the eldest son of the emperor, King Yan, the emperor, was the most eye-catching.

Month ago, the two girls were suddenly taken away by a wealthy Runzhou businessman who was rich and generous, and then they lost their traces. Until recently, someone reported to the official that a broken female corpse was found near Zhongshan. Her body had been eaten by a wild dog and dragged to the Qingxi outside the mountain. She died cruelly. Fortunately, her face was vaguely visible. After some investigation, the official finally confirmed that it was the sister among the Yangzhou sisters.

The famous prostitutes who bought them for a large price should have enjoyed the wealth of their owners, but they unexpectedly died in the mountains. The people have always been interested in this anecdote, and there are many different opinions for a while. Some good speculators even occupied the stage in the restaurant and started talking about books, making a few big money by gimmicks. After that, even more outrageous speculation also appeared in the rumors in the market, which was that the wealthy businessman in Runzhou was actually transformed by the impermanence of life.

Of course, in addition to the illusory theory of ghosts and gods, people generally believe that another statement that comes from unknown places is that the wealthy businessman in Runzhou was actually entrusted by the King of Yan who guarded Runzhou. On the way back to Runzhou, he coveted his beauty and raped and killed two daughters. The wealthy businessman also fled, and the King of Yan was also furious...

The prince's famous prostitute had a romantic affair, and some people were even more involved in life. Even if it was tortuous and bizarre, it still became a topic of conversation for the people after dinner. In the end, this matter was actually spread to the palace, which made Li Jing furious. He ordered Jinling Yin to investigate the case thoroughly, and must find out the source of the rumors, prohibit the people from talking, and ordered Zongzheng Temple to go to Runzhou to criticize the King of Yan. In this way, the people agreed with it, and the rumors continued to stop, but became more and more intense...

It was not until later that the limelight of this case was overshadowed by another major palace incident.

It is said that Li Congjia, the sixth prince who was hiding in Zhongshan and worshipped Buddha quietly, suddenly fell seriously ill. When Liu Shaojian in the palace was ordered to visit him, he found that the prince foamed at the mouth, his hands and feet trembled, and then fell asleep for several days. The emperor and the queen quickly sent several imperial doctors to come, but they could not find out the cause of the disease and were helpless.

Then a scholar from the Hanlin Academy reported that after a recent observation of the celestial phenomena, the evil star of the White Tiger rose from the east, and the evil spirit made the Ziwei Emperor Star dark for a while. Zhongshan was just east of Jinling. The sixth prince was loyal to the king and father. He chanted Buddha's name here for three years and prayed for blessings. He just blocked the evil spirit for the emperor, so he got this serious illness. Now the Ziwei Emperor Star has been relieved, and if he wants to save the prince, he must first let him leave the dangerous place.

The so-called father-son love is deep, Emperor Li Jing believes in this and hurriedly orders the sixth prince to be sent back to the palace to recuperate, and the queen will take care of it personally. A few days later, the sixth prince, under the protection of the "emperor's aura", finally recovered from a serious illness. But the first thing he did when he woke up was to insist on going back to Zhongshan and continue to pray for the emperor and empress.

He was previously worried by the rumors that the King of Yan was addicted to wine and sex. Now that he saw the Sixth Prince so sincere and filial, Emperor Li Jing was extremely moved. He "forced" the Sixth Prince to return to secular life in the name of the emperor. After building an altar in Qingliang Temple and appealing to the Buddha, he issued an order directly. The Sixth Prince Li Congjiajin was appointed as the Minister of the Zheng King, and was appointed as the General of the Left Guard, and participated in political affairs from now on.

This incident instantly caused an uproar in the court. Feng Chen's party was rarely calm, but Sun Sheng, Han Xizai and others always held objections. In particular, Zhong Mo, the Minister of Rites, submitted repeated memorials and advice on the grounds that Zheng King Li Congjia was accustomed to Buddhism, was young and cowardly, and could not participate in politics, which eventually made Emperor Li Jing furious and exiled him to Raozhou. Since then, the advice of Zheng King in the court has gradually subsided.

......

When a piece of news spread to Chu with the wind, it was already mid-March.

When Liu Shaojian and his party arrived in Langzhou, Privy Councilor Chen Jue had already led the army north, and was expected to be in the territory of Zhou. Li Yuan, who was ordered to station here, dared not be negligent. After hearing the news, he immediately ordered the city gate to open and select strong soldiers out of the city to line up to greet him.

In the warm spring day, Liu Jiangsheng and Luo Erhu each led a row of infantry standing on both sides of the city gate. The new iron helmets and armor of the Guards were dazzling in the sunshine. The bodies of the children with tiger backs and bears bulged with full muscle lines, and the red tassels of the long spear in their hands flowed like blood in the breeze. The scene here seemed like a perfect combination of iron and blood.

As soon as Liu Shaojian and others got off the carriage, they were infected by the Tang army's momentum here.

"Swish"! As Liu Jiangsheng quickly pulled out his sword from his waist and raised it high in the air, the soldiers on both sides tacitly raised their weapons, and then turned to the middle of the road. With another order, the soldiers chopped off one step, straightened their waists, lowered their heads and stood still without moving!

Not long after, Li Yuan was still wearing the golden armor of Qilin, and led his personal soldiers out majesticly, and took the initiative to greet Liu Shaojian respectfully and said: "Li Yuan, the Duke of Yu of the Guardian, is ordered to welcome the angel!"

Liu Shaojian was already full of spring breeze at this time, and the officials following him were immersed in the military appearance of the Tang Dynasty, and they praised Li Yuan's talent for commanding the army. Today's situation also shows his loyalty to His Majesty. However, Liu Shaojian confidently believed that everyone could get such a standard of courtesy. Li Yuan is our own family! Liu Shaojian thought so.

"Mr. Li Yu, I haven't seen each other for many days!" Liu Shaojian held Li Yuan's hands affectionately.

Li Yuan naturally smiled and said cheerfully: "I will personally lead the way for Young Master Liu. Angels, please come to the city!"

So everyone was surrounded by the guards of the Holy Army, and the people of Langzhou "spontaneously" welcomed each other, and entered Langzhou Prefecture City with a full pomp.

Liu Shaojian and others were taken to the Langzhou government office. After Jinling came to sit first, Li Yuan led the generals to sit down one after another.

Li Yuan took the initiative to speak first: "This place is simple, and Young Master Liu laughed! Langzhou has been in war, and the rest of the city will not be repaired until the restoration is completed. Recently, our brothers also live in the military camp. In desperation, they can only use this place to welcome you! Please forgive me for your rudeness!"

Seeing Li Yuan so humble, everyone bowed back to his greetings. Liu Shaojian followed what Li Yuan said and looked around, and found that although this place was not as exquisite as the official offices in Jinling, the decoration was gorgeous, and although it was simple and simple, it had a unique flavor.

So he smiled disapprovingly and said in a soft voice: "Mr. Li Yu is too polite! We are here to pass the order, but we are not here to travel around the mountains and rivers! Mr. Li Yu is so polite to me, how dare he dislike the place for being simple? Let's see, this place is very good!" Everyone hurriedly agreed happily.

Immediately, Liu Shaojian stood up and stood in the center of the lobby, reading the imperial edict loudly.

The decree is concise and concise, almost all related personnel appointments.

Li Yuan's name was first mentioned. He finally got what he wanted and was able to open the Jin Dynasty. As the previous emperor said in Jinling, he was appointed as the General of the Right Qianniu Guard, promoted to the General of the Wei Shengtong Army, and was appointed as the governor of Wuping and appointed as the Chief of the Chief of the Military Commander of the Langzhou. The only change was that the sentence "specialized in the guards of Fudongxi" was changed to "specialized in the guards of Fudongxi and guards all matters of the guards of the Shengtun camp."

Li Yuan knew very well about the emperor's intention. The Emperor's Holy Commander was not granted for nothing. Not to mention that half of the left wing troops were taken away by Chen Jue, but more importantly, the right wing troops were still under the control of Li Jinquan, the former Emperor's Holy Commander, and was stationed in Shouzhou at this time. Almost all the right wing troops were Li Jinquan's old subordinates brought from the North. The military power was Li Jinquan's amulet in the Southern Tang Dynasty. How could he easily give in? If he was too forced too hard, he would probably cause chaos. Therefore, if Li Yuan wanted to accept the right wing military power, he would be very difficult, so he would express his conspiracy.

In the imperial edict, there were many praises for the Western Expedition army. From the commander Chen Jue and the two deputy generals to the generals below, they all received rewards. Li Yuan's generals in the hall were all excited.

Finally, there were two meaningful appointments. The former Wuping Jiedushi Bian Hao was moved to Guiguan Jingmin, specializing in the south to the expedition and suppression. Li Jianqi made great contributions in Jiashan and was promoted to Wu'an Jiedushi and guarded Tanzhou. The former Wu'an Jiedushi Ma Xichong naturally stepped down and moved to Yongtai Jiedushi, and moved to Yangzhou to lead Shuzhou.

Li Yuan's face was red, and he felt that when his heart was beating faster, a vigorous force was filling his body. After breathing for a while, his eyes were bright and he gradually became calm.
