18. The head falls into the pool

The emperor shook Pei Yanling's eyes and asked what "suspected and slandered words" it was.

Pei Yanling said: "There is a famous son who slandered the high school lord and now commanded more than 100,000 troops and checked and balanced half of the world. He has been using troops in Caizhou for a year and has not yet captured Runan City. It is not that he cannot, but that he is unwilling to do so. He seems to be suspected of playing bandits, and there are even more unbearable..."

"Oh? How did Mr. Pei hear it, and who did you hear it?" the emperor asked this coldly.

Pei Yanling felt a little nervous. Of course, he had prepared for it, so he hurriedly said that these were all unreasonable false rumors. I hated this (I spread the slander, but I didn't admit it was what I said, it was called a substitute attack). He once asked Jingzhao Yin to arrest these unknown people who were causing trouble, but it was really hard to find. Only... After saying that, Pei Yanling took out a volume of manuscripts from his sleeve and said that the rumors were all written.

The emperor took the manuscript and read it. The title was "Gao Tang Yunmeng". After reading it, it did not talk about the romantic affairs between the King of Chu and the goddess. Instead, it was a perplexing story. It said that Gao Yue was in power and took advantage of the opportunity to remove the vassal states, but was actually usurping the Tang family's territory. Sooner or later, Gao and Tang would be united without distinguishing you and me.

The emperor was furious and looked at the fonts in the book again. They were all carved and printed, and they couldn't tell who it was.

"This is the most widely circulated evil book recently. I don't know who wrote it, but it is printed in Diaozi, and I wantonly criticize Your Majesty and Zhonglang. There are more than a thousand people who have read it in Chang'an City!" Pei Yanling was heartbroken.

"It's all nonsense." The emperor thought about it, calmed down, threw the manuscript aside, and said coldly that the court is now determined to suppress the Huaixi thief party. There are always people inside and outside Chang'an who want to maintain the situation of strong branches and weak trunks. They always feel that the king and the law are not in control of their heads. Unfortunately, they all think things are simple. Then the emperor poked his fingers heavily, with a very stern tone, "That's the past, and it's just these people who write monster books and scriptures. The City Supervisor and Jingzhao Yin also have ways to dig them out of the cellar and punish them!"

"Yes, yes, what the Holy Lord said is extremely true." Pei Yanling caught the wind direction and shrank back wisely.

At this time, several middle-aged officials came and whispered to the emperor.

The emperor asked Pei Yanling to go back and pay the remaining money and silk of the Duzhisi to the front line, and then left.

"What, this is actually happening..." The emperor was shocked when he saw Gao Yue's secret letter delivered by Lingxu in the small temple in the East Hall of the Golden Palace.

Then he paced back and forth for a while, gritting his teeth, "Wu Shaoyang is really trapped in beasts, and his destruction is imminent, and he doesn't seize any opportunity to turn over. So if you really want Wu Shaoyang to survive, it would be like to let the tiger return to the mountain. In addition, Tian Xu, Li Shigu, and Li Wanrong are not good people after all. I can see them clearly. If these fang slaves are not removed, the country will not be the country."

"Master, I heard that the official in Xuanwu Town has passed Tongguan. What should I do if I do it?" Lingxu said.

The emperor thought about it and said that I had discussed with Lu Jiu tonight.

At night, Lu Zhi, who was writing in the Golden Palace and Li Jifu, a scholar in the direct, heard the information and his expression changed.

Since the court fought against Huaixi, some vassal states impeached and removed prime ministers, hired mountain sheds to assassinate prime ministers, and used flowers and wood to make a mistake. They made a comeback. The rabbit died and the fox was sad about Li Dai Taoist, and even mule soldiers attacked the Dongdu. The official army and the Cai thief changed internal conflicts... One move after another, you went back and forth, and all the masters gathered, intentionally or unintentionally, and the conspiracy and conspiracy were all splendid... Even people like Lu Zhi and Li Jifu were amazed and felt that it would be worth experiencing this battle.

Wu Shaoyang can even play with dead people, which is considered to be a rare and modern person.

In fact, even the emperor was excited.

It is more exciting than eating frosted ice cheese in the hot summer.

"Although the Cai thief was treacherous and repeated, that's it." Lu Zhi took the lead in setting the tone. He felt that the more fierce the Cai thief was, the more miserable the deaths. The court could suppress the whole thing with an unchanging policy.

What about Li Jifu? From a private perspective, he hoped that Gao Yue would be over, but from a righteous perspective, Gao Yue strongly advocated the reduction of the vassal states, which was so consistent with his own ideas.

After all, Li Jifu is a politician and will not override personal grudges at the national level at the critical moment. He offered advice to the emperor: "When Wu Shaocheng died, his head is worthless. Xuanwu, Wei Bo, and Ziqing want to raise prices and interfere with the war in Ping Cai, and the court must suppress it."

"Hongxian said very well, but how can he suppress it?" the emperor asked.

"Originally, Li Wanrong's trip was to hold Wu Shaocheng's head when he came to Beijing to report, but since His Majesty already knew this idea, it would be easy to deal with Wu Shaocheng's head before entering Beijing!"

"Oh." The emperor immediately understood.

In the Pude Post Office in Huazhou, there were lightning and thunder outside. The Shenwei soldiers in black clothes and the bad people in Tonghua Prefectures were no less than 200,000. They shouted, "There are bandits in the mountain shed in Guozhou who are committing evil here, killing people and robbing people, and killing family members in the village. The envoy has documented to check all the post stations, ferries and passes!" The post stations were surrounded.

The Xuanwu officials who had just moved into Pude Post were shocked. They heard that the door of the post hall was smashed and shaking, and the window was pushed open. The wind and rain were whistling in. They held up the candles and opened the gift box, which was full of heads.

In trouble.

How could you happen to encounter this?

Now with so many heads, you say it is Wu Shaocheng's, who is willing to believe it?

The official in charge immediately became anxious and picked up Wu Shaocheng's head.

"What are you going to do?" exclaimed several other officials.

"What else do you want to throw them away, otherwise you will be regarded as bandits."

"We are all officials in Xuanwu Town. Who dares to see us as bandits?"

Before he finished speaking, the gate of the post station was pushed open with a loud bang. A group of postmen hurriedly raised fire to greet him, and only heard the leader of the bad guy shouting to search the place.

The official who was holding the head could not stand it. He ran away and threw Wu Shaocheng's head into the pond on the other side of the garden. "Twist it quickly, otherwise we will all be imprisoned!"

"Are you crazy?" The other officials immediately started to fight.

The luggage and box were flipped to the ground, and the remaining dozen heads, all fell into the mud and rolled around in the mud.

The bad people, postmen and Shenwei soldiers who were surrounding him with torches were all stunned when they saw this scene.

"We are officials from Xuanwu Town, and these heads are Cai's thieves..."

Hula, dozens of bad people and soldiers rushed up and tied the group tightly with ropes.

Soon, they pinched their noses, followed the instructions, and used a hook to rake from the stinking pond to squeeze out Wu Shaocheng's head, who was beyond recognition.

"Whose head is this?"

"It's Wu Shaocheng, the leader of Cai Thief."
