Back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty to be the emperor

Chapter 186 The Imperial Commissioner Arrives
The West Flower Hall of the Governor's Mansion in Lanzhou was full of people, but none of them spoke or moved like clay sculptures and wood carvings. The hall was filled with silence and dullness. Lin Mingdu, the governor of Lanzhou, actually sat in the last seat with aggrieved, not only that, but also had a look of fear and fear on his face, not to mention opening his mouth, he didn't even dare to take a breath, like that She was just like a little daughter-in-law who didn't dare to speak out after being wronged so much.

Aggrieved?It's just unavoidable, don't look at Lin Mingdu is the governor of Zhongzhou, a majestic local official of the fourth rank, in the past in this Lanzhou city, he was the undisputed master, and he can be impressive, but it's a pity that he is not the same as everyone in the hall. In comparison, the difference is not at 01:30. To be honest, if it wasn’t for Lin Mingdu’s identity as the master, let alone sit down, he wouldn’t be able to get in even through this hall door. Look, left No. 1 on the front, the sturdy old man with gray beard is Qibi Heli, the chief commander of the Wuhai Road Marching Army, and his official worship is General Zuowei; No. 1 on the right, the tall and burly old man with white hair is the Dongzhou Road Marching Army The chief officer, Gao Xun, paid homage to General Wei, the guard of the left guard; the second person on the left, the middle-aged general who was as strong as a bear, was Li Jinxing, the chief officer of the Yanshan Road Army, and he paid homage to General Wei, the leader of the right army, besides these three famous In addition to the great generals, there are more than a dozen other generals such as Xu Yuanmao, Liu Zheng, etc., just grab one here, no matter in family background, official rank or official position, they are far higher than Lin Mingdu. Sitting down here is considered to be a good face to his master. As for the right to speak, it is naturally hopeless. Apart from sitting still, Lin Mingdu really didn't dare to complain.

I don't dare to complain, but the resentment is not old or young - the people in this hall are all extremely noble people. If it was the past, Lin Mingdu wished to get closer to him, and he didn't expect those people to be able to pay him back. It would be good to put on something similar, if these generals came to Lanzhou city separately, Lin Mingdu would welcome them very much, but if all these guys came, it would be no fun, and what's even more not fun is These gang of killers are not here to be guests at all, but to fight against each other. Fortunately, they are not fighting against Lin Mingdu, but against each other. If not, even Lin Mingdu has a few lives. Even so, Lin Mingdu felt as uncomfortable as an ant on a hot pot, because he couldn't afford to offend any of these gang leaders.

"Let's talk about it, after all, we have to come up with a charter for this matter."

Among the generals, Qibi Heli was the oldest, the most qualified, and the least patient. Seeing that it was not an option to sit down like this, he lifted his long eyebrows and spoke first.

"Brother Qibi, what can I say? A certain family has no opinion, but I don't know if General Gao has any opinions?"

As soon as Qibi Heli finished speaking, Li Jinxing shook his head and answered with a smile. That simple and honest smile gave the appearance that he had no intentions, but the generals in the field were not so easy to fool. Knowing that this guy who was born in Mohe is not only superb in martial arts, but also has a delicate mind. He has never been someone to be provoked, and his only job is to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, so no one will take his words seriously.

"General Li has already said so, how dare Gao have any objections, since it was brother Qibi's suggestion, why not let brother Qibi write this chapter, and Gao agrees with both hands." Li Jin Xing pretended to be stupid, and Gao Yan was unambiguous, and kicked the ball back to Qibi Heli's feet as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Hmph, if you want to read the book, you can read it together. The old man has no place to be a villain for nothing?"

Hearing Gao and Li playing Tai Chi together, Qibi Heli's old face immediately darkened. He snorted coldly and retorted unceremoniously. Seeing this, the two generals were not in a hurry, their respective elders sat on the ground without moving, the three generals stopped talking, and the rest of the generals did not dare to speak, and the West Flower Hall fell into a dead silence again. .

"Generals, it's almost noon, can you allow the officials to order people to serve some wine and food, and we can discuss it after we use it?"

There was no end to the silence of the generals. Seeing that it was almost noon, as the master, Lin Mingdu couldn't sit still, so he stood up and asked tentatively One sentence.

It was fine if Lin Mingdu didn't stand up. When he stood up, the eyes of the three generals lit up. After exchanging glances quickly, Qibi He Li spoke first: "Casic Lin has a heart, There is no rush for food and drink, but this general has something that Governor Lin needs to do urgently, so I wonder if Governor Lin would dare to do it?"

"Ah, this..."

Lin Mingdu really didn't expect that he wanted to entertain guests with good intentions, but he would actually get into trouble because of it. He was shot while lying down. Did he intend to refuse? However, Qibi Heli, who lives in Wuhai Road as the chief officer of the march, is exactly He, Lin Mingdu, should be in charge of his boss. It is obviously irrational to refuse the boss's order face to face. The problem is that the consequences of executing this order are serious but not something that Lin Mingdu can afford-the generals are actually not subordinate to each other. , the reason why they gathered here was nothing more than to welcome the soon-to-arriving imperial envoy Li Xian, but the meeting ceremony prepared for Li Xian was a bit special, that was to invite the prince to go back home, as for the method? , these guys have discussed it well, that is, they objected to Li Xian being in command of the expedition. The superficial reason was that he was concerned about Li Xian's safety, but in fact it was because of the outdated rules of ranking seniority in the army. Lin Mingdu Although I didn't intend to join the army, but after listening to it for a long time, I also figured out what's going on inside. I planned to stay out of it, but unexpectedly I ran into the muzzle because of a kind question, and I wanted to die. have it all.

"What? Governor Lin wants to disobey orders, huh?"

Before Lin Mingdu came back to his senses, Qibi Heli's expression darkened, and he showed the majesty of his superior, and unceremoniously put a big hat on him.

"Official, official..."

Being so forced by Qibi Heli, poor Lin Mingdu's legs and feet were a little weak, and the sweat on his forehead was densely packed, and his lips moved for a long time, but he didn't say why—disobedience is a crime, resistance The decree is a felony, no matter what, Lin Mingdu is not willing to accept it.

"Inspector Lin doesn't need to worry too much, but if Inspector Lin is willing to come forward, we can all support him, and nothing will happen." Since Qibi Heli has become a villain, Li Jinxing is naturally happy to come forward and be a good person, not waiting for Lin Mingdu When he refused, Li Jinxing already laughed and said with a smile.

"General Li's words are justified, and Gao will never dare to be a descendant. He should be Lin's backing, what do you think?"

As soon as Li Jinxing finished speaking, General Gao added a sentence unwilling to be lonely, and continued to force Lin Mingdu to death.

"That's right, governor Lin, don't worry, I will fully support you!"

"Yes, that's the reason. Governor Lin boldly goes ahead. I'm happy to see it succeed!"

"That's right, with Governor Lin taking the lead, this matter is settled!"

Now that the three generals agreed, the rest of the generals were happy to contribute to the flames, and generally they all had the idea of ​​"dead friends will not die poor ones".

"Report, His Royal Highness Zhou Wang has entered the city and is rushing to the governor's mansion, please tell the generals!"

With a slap of sticks by the crowd, poor Lin Mingdu was immediately forced to the corner, unable to cry, and was sweating profusely thinking about how to resign, when he saw a school captain rushing in from outside the hall , ignoring the disordered breathing, one knee on the ground, reporting the report in a hurried tone.

"What, how did it arrive so quickly? Didn't yesterday's news not cross the Yellow River?"

"Damn, it came so fast."

"Hey, it's a blessing or a curse. If it's a disaster, you can't avoid it. If you stretch out your head, it's also a knife if you shrink your head. It's better to meet him first."

The generals obviously didn't expect Li Xian to come so soon, they were stunned for a moment, and then they all started talking nonsense, no one was in the mood to force Lin Mingdu who was about to collapse.

"Brother Qibi, this is my brother's territory. I'd better ask my brother to make up his mind on how to proceed. Li has no other words." Li Jinxing rolled his eyes, laughed suddenly, and put on a tall hat. He casually gave it to Qibi Heli.

"General Li's words are justified, and Mr. Gao is the only one who follows Qibi brother's lead, so I will give the order." Li Jinxing is shrewd, Gao Yan is not stupid, and he also forced Qibi He Li with a smile.

"Hmph, accept the order!"

Although Qibi Heli is a little impatient, but after all, he is a person who has spent his whole life in the court, so he is not easy to get along with, and he knows that Li and the second-year senior general talk about it, but they want him to Qibi Heli It's all about going to the front line, there was a burst of anger immediately, but it wasn't the moment when the mouth was angry, it could only be a heavy snort, and stood up abruptly, regardless of the expressions of Li and Gao, they just looked after themselves. Then he strode out of the gate of the mansion, and when the generals saw this, they dared not neglect, and followed behind each other talking wildly.

Li Xian arrived very quickly. A group of generals had just walked out of the gate of the governor's mansion. Before they had time to line up, they heard the sound of rumbling horseshoes, and a fiery red battle flag was raised from the corner of the street. He saw Li Xian rushing forward like a whirlwind on a white horse that was extremely handsome.

"The last general is waiting to welcome His Royal Highness King Zhou!"

Although Qibi Heli and others have fought in all directions all the year round, they have seen Li Xian's majesty when they were in the court. Xian reined in his horses, all the generals, led by the three generals, each bowed to greet him.

Ok?This smell seems a bit wrong, what do these old boys want to do?Li Xian's political sense has always been very keen, and he only glanced at the generals, and he had vaguely sensed something inauspicious. When his heart moved, a gleam flashed in his eyes... …
