Datang Longya

Chapter 912 On the road of no return

Baiqisi has gradually developed since Li Shimin ascended the throne, and now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it has penetrated into every part of the Tang Dynasty.Such a huge organization is about to disintegrate now because of the traitors inside.

Zhang Wen sighed and said: "To be honest, I have been in Baiqisi for so many years. Although I have enough fun at home, I really don't know what I will do in the future. Do I want to open a martial arts gym in Chang'an and not teach boxing? Only teach archery?"

Hearing something in Zhang Wen's words, the corner of Leng Feng's mouth twitched and said: "If you want to come to the martial arts academy, just say it, what are you doing all those detours, your salary is indispensable. Although archery will soon become insignificant, it is still very useful for exercise. Not to mention, in an environment where gunpowder weapons are not used, archery may not be completely useless."

The reason why Leng Feng admired Zhang Wen was because of his archery skills. He had speculated at the beginning that within the shooting range of the feather arrow, he was only [-]% sure that he could deal with Zhang Wen with a firearm.

In modern warfare, bows and crossbows are equally useful. Who said that archery must be eliminated by gunpowder weapons?
Zhang Wen smiled and said: "Then it's settled, after I settle down at home, I will go to the martial arts academy to have a meal in a few days."

Patting Leng Rui on the head, Zhang Wen cupped his hands to Leng Feng, and left the palace gate like a walk.

He got away perfectly, but Baiqisi's mess can't be solved within a few years.

Leng Feng asked the driver to go back to Tianxialou to wait, and brought Leng Rui into the palace.

As usual, there was no need to wait at all, the guards at the palace gate let Leng Feng into the palace.

It was already afternoon at this time, and Li Shimin should have finished court and even finished his meal.

Lead Leng Rui all the way to Li Shimin's imperial study.

When you get here, you need eunuchs to go in and report.

After a while, Li Shimin didn't let Leng Feng in, but he walked out by himself.

"You came at the right time. I was so upset and irritable after reviewing the memorial, I was just about to go out for a walk."

Walking with Li Shimin, Leng Feng couldn't help asking: "Is it because I haven't done my job for a while, have you become unfamiliar?"

Li Shimin smiled wryly and said: "It's really unfamiliar. Being an emperor is really not as comfortable as being a mountain farmer. I checked the memorials some time ago and found that Chengqian is very mature in handling political affairs. Maybe, I really have reached the age of retirement. "

Leng Feng nodded, but did not complain about Li Shimin's words.

Now that Li Chengqian is thirty, Li Shimin still treats him like a child. The 30-year-old prince is already a little pitiful.

While walking, Leng Feng's stomach suddenly groaned.

Li Shimin asked in surprise, "You didn't eat?"

Leng Feng shook his head: "When I got up, I wasn't hungry, so I didn't eat."

Li Shimin turned his head and glanced at the new eunuch following behind him: "Wu Yan, go get some snacks for Duke Hu and this child."

"Wuyan? Could it be the name you gave me!"

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Yes, I often think of Wuming these days. This slave has been with me for many years and is loyal. After I came back, I wanted to reward his family, but I couldn't find it. I have many guards. I didn't expect it to be urgent. It was he who saved me at the critical moment."

"If you can make people die for you, you can be considered a successful emperor."

It could be seen that Li Shimin was a little sad, Leng Feng could only comfort him with these words.

However, Li Shimin didn't think that Leng Feng was flattering him. After more than [-] years of contact, he was used to Leng Feng's outspoken words.

The three of them went into a small pavilion and sat down, looking at the fish swimming in the pond, Li Shimin said: "You didn't come to court this morning, so I don't know what happened. Hundreds of officials jointly signed a petition to arrest Li Zhi, and thoroughly investigate who it is." He was rescued. Judging by their appearance, if Li Zhi is caught, they will be torn to pieces! No emperor is so angry, but they are all filled with righteous indignation."

Leng Feng said helplessly: "Isn't this normal? For treason, even an official has to show his hatred. How about it? You issued a hunting order?"

Li Shimin nodded: "Yes, but Cheng Qian said that the place he was looking for was on the border between Tubo and Tang Dynasty. Few people go there, so Li Zhi will not be found."

After finishing speaking, Li Shimin thought of one thing: "By the way, many people were arrested in Li Zhi's mansion. The sentence of the Ministry of Punishment was to be executed, but there was one person who was saved by Chengqian, who said he wanted you to see him before he dealt with it." .”

"who?"

Hearing this, Leng Feng was also very puzzled, who needs him to meet before dealing with it?

"The official of Prince Jin's mansion, Zhang Jianzhi."

Hearing this name, Leng Feng couldn't help rubbing his temples.

After three years, he had kind of forgotten about this guy.

Li Zhi's rebellion, if he didn't have a part in this guy, even he wouldn't believe it.

For those who are unwilling to accept the status quo and always want to take off, rebellion is their first choice.It's just that he didn't expect that Zhang Jianzhi would suffer the consequences so soon.

Speaking of which, this guy still has the name of a graduate of the Academy of Arts.Although he didn't have a diploma, what he had studied in the liberal arts college was a certainty.

If he is involved too much in this incident, it will have a little impact on the reputation of the Academy of Arts.

Wu Yan brought a few plates of snacks and two jugs of juice.It seems that the emperor's new personal eunuch has done a lot of homework and knows that Leng Feng doesn't like drinking.

After drinking a glass of juice and eating two snacks, Leng Feng couldn't help but said: "I wanted to spend a meal with you, but it seems that I can't eat it. I'm going to the prison of the Ministry of Justice to see this kid."

Li Shimin nodded: "Go, if you don't want to go to the court to see the ugly behavior of the officials these few days, then don't come, I will grant you a few days of vacation."

Leng Feng remembered the gifts that were not unloaded from the carriage, after thinking about it, he decided not to play with Li Shimin, and took Leng Rui out of the palace directly.

As soon as he left the palace gate, he saw Li Chengqian.

Greeting his master, Li Chengqian said gratefully, "Master, please forgive me for Li Zhi's matter."

Leng Feng waved his hand: "Let's not talk about Li Zhi's matter first, what crime is Zhang Jianzhi charged with?"

Li Chengqian said with a wry smile: "The Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple are interrogating together. There is no need for intimidation. He just said everything. Instigating a prince to rebel and making a plan himself, these two things are enough for him to be executed."

Handing Leng Rui to Li Chengqian, Leng Feng sighed: "Unexpectedly, this kid is on the road of no return. Forget it, I'd better go to the prison to see him. You send Leng Rui back, and call him by the way." Li Tai and Li Ke come to the house for dinner at night, and haven't talked with you three brothers for a while."

After Li Shimin came back, Li Chengqian felt much more relaxed, and finally had time to do his own things.

Li Chengqian nodded, and led Leng Rui away first.

With a helpless mood, Leng Feng rode to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice to meet Zhang Jianzhi.
