Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2421 The Emperor's Fury

Hearing the words, the guards of Zuo Tun all took a step back, and dared not act rashly.

At the same time, everyone was suspicious in their hearts. Under any circumstances, it is a felony to hold an officer hostage. Gao Kan dared to hold Chai Zhewei in full view, and even put a knife on Chai Zhewei's neck. If it's light, it's above, but if it's serious, it's bad intentions. If it wasn't for some great event, how could it be like this?
The left and right guards are the reserve army of the "Hundred Cavalry", and all of them are honored descendants. They may not have much ability, but they are naturally sensitive to politics.

No one is a fool, there must be a reason for Gao Kan to risk the disgrace of the world, who dares to get involved?
Only those members of the Qiu family panicked. First, they were unexpectedly blocked by the guards of the Right Guard, and then they pretended to be the Guards of the Left Guard and were dismantled, and then even Chai Zhewei was kidnapped...

Surrounded by soldiers from the Left and Right Tunwei, not only the Right Tunwei will not let them go, but the Left Tunwei will absolutely not allow them to leave.

Chai Zhewei is a character after all, knowing that he has fallen into Gao Kan's pit, he said to him: "General Gao, I don't know the inside story, so it is my fault that I delayed your investigation. But you hold the officer hostage like this, the military law will not tolerate it." How about if you have the right to let me go, I don't care about this matter, and let you and others enter this house to search?"

He had to compromise.

This Gao Kan was loyal to Fang Jun and obeyed his orders. He didn't care about his future and wealth at all, and he wanted to search for the assassin wholeheartedly. If he stopped him to the end, he might really dare to kill himself.

For a heroic general in the army, and finally the commander, what is his own life worth compared to capturing the assassin who assassinated his own commander?
What's more, Chai Zhewei has clearly discovered many inadequacies...

Gao Kan also hesitated.

Chai Zhewei's status is different after all, if he is held hostage by him, the consequences will be very serious.

No one can care about his own life and future. If he is sure that Chai Zhewei is the mastermind of Fang Jun's assassination, he will definitely cut off his head without saying a word, but right now he can't prove this...

After thinking for a while, he resolutely withdrew his knife, let go of Chai Zhewei, and said loudly: "The general has a military order, and he has no choice but to offend Duke Qiao. Care about it, wait until after the event, let it be dealt with!”

Chai Zhewei touched his neck, the cool feeling of the sharp blade just now made him almost think that his life was in danger, but now he came to his senses, he felt that being held hostage in front of his subordinates like this was really embarrassing, Naturally, the lingering anger is hard to dispel.

But looking at Gao Kan's attitude, he knew that if he insisted on dealing with Gao Kan, this tycoon would definitely struggle desperately.

Things are getting out of hand...

The smartest thing to do is to endure.

Chai Zhewei is not a reckless man, so it is no problem to be able to bend and stretch. He immediately said seriously: "Today's matter, I will never finish with you! But because of your military order, I don't care about it for the time being! But after today, I will never let you go." You! I will leave this to you, and I will not intervene!"

After saying that, he turned around and said to the Zuotun guards under his command: "Withdraw!"

Hundreds of people huffed and evacuated in a blink of an eye.

Gao Kan breathed a sigh of relief, now is not the time to worry about how to be good, he glared at the generals of the Qiu family, and waved his hand: "Take them all!"

"Here!"

The guards of the right village rushed forward, punching and kicking. The general of the Qiu family also realized that something was wrong. I am afraid that this time it would be a serious matter. He dared not resist, so he squatted on the ground obediently. General, we are only in charge of guarding this mansion, and we are on duty today, so we have no idea what happened, can we send a letter to the Patriarch?"

Gao Kan wiped his face, the blood on his face stung for a while, and snorted coldly: "Whether it is involved or not, I don't care if I say it, let alone if you say it, it doesn't matter if Dali Temple has to say it." !"

Everyone in the Qiu family was dumbfounded.

Previously, Gao Kan and Chai Zhewei vaguely heard about the assassination of the general, so they probably suspected us?

That's a bad luck for eight lifetimes...

Gao Kan ordered his subordinates to drive all these people into the Bieyuan together with the Youtun guards who came to support them, and chose a place in the corner to guard them, and then ordered people to surround the Bieyuan and lead the team himself Start a careful search inside and out.

*****
Ziyun Building is the commanding height of Furong Garden, and it is also the most magnificent building. When His Majesty Li Er succeeded to the throne, he intended to build a building in Furong Garden as a place to rest in his spare time, but it was first given by Jieli Khan. He went to Guanzhong to drink horses and Weishui and looted for a while. After that, he fought domestically and abroad for years, and the imperial treasury was always empty, so this wish was shelved.

Until Fang Jun formed the Royal Navy and discovered a large number of gold and silver mines in the country of Japan, and the gold and silver were transported back to Chang'an one by one, and the internal funds were so rich that His Majesty Li Er's wish that was about to be extinguished was naturally brought up again. Immediately ordered the Ministry of Industry and the Shaofu to gather manpower and work overtime to build Ziyun Tower.

In just half a year, a magnificent, exquisite and luxurious building rose from the ground, adjacent to Wei Wang Li Tai's other garden.

……

His Majesty Li Er was dressed in a red-yellow robe, and stood with his hands behind his back on Ziyun Tower. When he climbed up and looked north, he could have a panoramic view of a section of the winding Qujiang River and the misty Qujiang Pond. The water is mighty, the poolside is shaded by green willows and towering old trees, and exquisite and elegant buildings and pavilions are scattered among them, just like a fairyland on earth.

The ministers of civil and military affairs lined up on the left and right, overlooking the happy tourists rubbing shoulders in the garden, all of them smiling. If it weren't for the glorious and prosperous age, how could such a wonderful scene of the monarch and the people enjoy together?

Especially the envoys from various countries in this Ziyun Tower, witnessing such a grand occasion, were all dumbfounded and shocked.

Since ancient times, the primary criterion for measuring national strength has been the population.

Population is the foundation of everything. Only people can cultivate more land, pay more taxes, and recruit more soldiers!
Chang'an City, with a population of one million, is already the most powerful city in the world. I don't know how many small countries have the power of the whole country, but there is no such a large population. Today, the four gates of Chang'an City are open, and the people of Guanzhong come here one after another, helping the old and the young. The crowd is simply tingling!
How can such a great Tang be defeated?
Such a great Tang Dynasty is just looking down on the world and looking down on everyone!
His Majesty Li Er looked at the shock on the faces of the envoys from all over the world, and he was full of ambition, but when he saw Princess Silla standing in a corner with a graceful appearance, his brows were slightly frowned...

For Fang Jun, he naturally relied heavily on his favor, and Ai Wu and Wu Xia had a very good impression of Princess Silla.Although this woman was born in the royal family of Silla, she was not spoiled or pretentious, but heroic and graceful.

He admired this kind of woman, just like the third lady back then, who never gave way to a man.

It's just that because of the quarrel between Fang Jun and Changsun Wuji before, I was afraid that Fang Jun would show up at such a grand meeting today, aspiring to Changsun Wuji, so I ordered him to personally lead troops to defend Furong Garden and not come to Ziyun Lou, naturally he would not collide with Changsun Wuji and cause trouble.

It's just that in this way, it is inevitable that Princess Silla will be left out in the cold...

After all, they are subordinate ministers. Silla is still included in the territory of the Tang Dynasty and ruled by Li Ke, the king of Wu. The queen and princess of Silla have left their homes, and it is inevitable that they will feel dependent on others. It is not easy to live in Chang'an for a long time.

People throw away their homes and businesses to surrender to the Tang Dynasty, after all, they can no longer be squeezed out and trembling, right?

After thinking for a while, he wanted to call Princess Silla to his side, say a few words of relief, and show everyone that he valued and protected his subordinates, but at this moment, Wang De, the chief servant, ran downstairs Come up, rushing to his side, unexpectedly did not salute, but leaned forward and lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, Fang Shaobao was assassinated just now and was seriously injured!"

"Um?!"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes widened in an instant, a wave of anger surged up, and he subconsciously glared at Changsun Wuji beside him.

Changsun Wuji was chatting and laughing with Linghu Defen, who lived in seclusion in the mansion and had never shown up before, suddenly he felt cold all over his body, a gust of cold air rose from his tailbone, his hairs all stood on end, he turned around in astonishment, and bumped into His Majesty Li Er's burning gaze.

Changsun Wuji's heart trembled, he hurried forward, bowed and asked in a low voice: "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

His Majesty Li Er's eyes flickered, he stared closely at Changsun Wuji's round face, and said slowly: "Just now Fang Jun was assassinated, what does Zhao Guogong think?"

Changsun Wuji was stunned for a moment, then his face changed drastically, and he said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty has learned from you, the old minister knows nothing!"

"Know nothing?"

His Majesty Li Er sneered, raised his eyes, looked around, gritted his back molars and said, "It's best that everyone knows nothing, it's best to pray to God and worship Buddha to protect Fang Jun from death, otherwise... don't blame me Let's kill!"
