Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 310
The county head of Jinxiang and Cui Jie are best friends because of her father, King Teng.

In the history of the early Tang Dynasty, King Teng was considered a celebrity. His name was neither in the court nor in his talent, but in him he was simply an alternative in the royal family.

During the funeral of Emperor Taizong, he held banquets, danced and played prostitutes, and finally King Teng was ignored by Li Zhi, and his troubled life began from then on.

After Li Zhi ascended the throne, he demoted the emperor again and again. At first, he was demoted from Tengzhou, Shandong to Suzhou to serve as the governor, and then he was demoted to Hongzhou, which is later known as Nanchang.

If history does not change, he will be demoted to Chuzhou, Langzhong, Longzhou...

King Teng's life was either being demoted or on the way to being demoted. The amazing thing is that no matter how many times he was demoted, he was always optimistic. Moreover, King Teng had a cheerful personality and liked to play pranks. It is said that he likes to squat on the side of the street Strange passers-by throw pebbles...

He has not been beaten to death at this age, thanks to his good reincarnation, otherwise, with such a cheap hand, the county master of Jinxiang would probably be just a puddle of white turbid liquid, buried in the tomb with King Teng.

He has been demoted many times. It can be said that King Teng has spent his whole life on the road. I don’t know which time he passed Qingzhou on the way to be demoted many years ago. One is the son of Gaozu and the other is a thousand-year-old family. Naturally, the two sides need to get to know each other. .

In this way, Cui Jie and the county magistrate of Jinxiang met and became close friends in her boudoir.

"Are you really girlfriends with Cui Jie?" Li Qinzai asked in surprise.

The county magistrate of Jinxiang said coldly: "I have known Jie'er for ten years, what do you think?"

Li Qinzai smacked his lips. It turns out that his mother-in-law's connections are quite wild. Thinking about it, it's true. It's impossible for a lady of the family to stay at home and embroider all day. The people she knew since she was a child all have connections.

In the final analysis, the family background of a lady is different from that of ordinary people, and she is destined to have a different circle. She was born in Rome, so it is normal to know a girlfriend of the county lord.

"Are you two years younger than Jie'er?" Li Qinzai looked her up and down.

"Yes."

Li Qinzai smiled: "So it's my family, so it's easy to handle..."

A look of astonishment flashed across the beautiful eyes of the county magistrate of Jinxiang. She didn't understand why Li Qinzai's expression and eyes suddenly changed.

Slowly approaching the county master of Jinxiang two steps, the distance between the two of them is already very close.

"Hey, call me brother-in-law..." Li Qinzai said earnestly and kindly.

The county magistrate of Jinxiang was stunned: "Why?"

"I'm your girlfriend's husband-in-law, shouldn't I be called brother-in-law? Hurry up, brother-in-law will give you a red envelope."

The county magistrate of Jinxiang came back to his senses, and then became furious: "You are dreaming!"

"It faded, the feelings faded..." Li Qinzai sighed in disappointment.

Theoretically, half of this sister-in-law's butt belonged to him, but in the end she didn't even want to change her name.

Therefore, the two women should be plastic sisters, otherwise they would not be so impolite.

"Jie'er is Jie'er, you are you, Governor Li, please respect yourself." Jinxiang County Main Board said with a pretty face.

Li Qinzai's interest also gradually declined. He was alone in a foreign land. He thought he had met a sister-in-law halfway, but others did not recognize this brother-in-law. Li Qinzai naturally did not have the hobby of sticking a hot face to a cold ass...

If it is literally, I don't mind posting it, the key is that people may not want to.

"Okay, Your Highness, let's be straightforward, what are you doing here?" Li Qinzai said lazily.

The county magistrate of Jinxiang said coldly: "There is no food in Bingzhou, and there is chaos in the city. I want to ask Governor Li how to deal with it."

Li Qinzai narrowed his eyes and said, "I have my own plans, so don't bother the magistrate."

The county magistrate of Jinxiang said angrily: "I'm also a clan member, why can't I bother? You know that the news of Bingzhou has already reached Chang'an. At this time, there are many officials in the Chang'an court who are writing to impeach you..."

"Participate in impeachment, can I save a piece of meat? I don't even have the shame to be an official." Li Qinzai said nonchalantly.

The county magistrate of Jinxiang gradually revealed an angry expression, "What about the people in Bingzhou City? You are the parents of a city. Do you want to watch the people starve to death?"

Li Qinzai stared into her eyes, and said abruptly, "The grain merchants in the city are driving up grain prices. May I ask His Highness King Teng to participate in this matter?"

The county magistrate of Jinxiang said coldly: "My father never let me know about it, I don't know."

"If King Teng is involved in this matter, how are you qualified to teach me? If King Teng is not involved, heh, it is a taboo for the vassal king to ask about politics, and the county magistrate to pre-empt matters. The county magistrate, please think twice."

The county magistrate of Jinxiang became angry and opened his mouth, but found that he was speechless.

She took the initiative to go to the governor's mansion because she cared about the people's livelihood in Bingzhou and had no other purpose. It was taboo for the royal clan to ask about politics, but if the purpose was pure, it could also be interpreted as a responsibility.

After all, the world belongs to the Li family.

"Forget it, pretend I haven't been here. Inspector Li, and nearly a million people in Bingzhou City and the four counties under its jurisdiction, their lives depend on you. I hope you are careful, otherwise I will not only be the spokesperson of Chang'an, but I will also persuade my father to go to the court." Shushen impeaches you."

After finishing speaking, the county magistrate of Jinxiang left in a huff.

Li Qinzai watched her leave with a smile, his eyes gradually sank.

In the city of Bingzhou, he couldn't believe anyone, anyone could be his enemy, including this pure and beautiful county lord.

Standing alone in the courtyard for a long time, Li Qinzai suddenly said: "Si, call the magistrates of the four counties under the jurisdiction of Bing Prefecture to see him."

…………

Jinyang Palace.

This palace is located in the city of Bingzhou. It was the emperor's palace during the Sui Dynasty. When Li Yuan was in charge of Taiyuan, the Sui Dynasty was in chaos. Li Shimin urged his father to live in the palace, but Li Yuan sternly refused.

Li Shimin's cheating father simply got his father drunk and sent him to the palace, and even colluded with Pei Ji, the deputy supervisor of the palace, to arrange for Li Yuan to sleep with several beautiful palace ladies.

After sobering up, Li Yuan was full of despair, Li Shimin took the opportunity to turn on the fire, saying that anyway, you are staying in the palace and the maid is asleep, and it is unforgivable to do such a rebellious thing, so why not just turn it against him.

So Li Yuan had no choice but to raise troops against the Sui Dynasty.

This Jinyang Palace is a milestone for Datang.

The original intention of the founding of the Tang Dynasty was because the great ancestor Li Yuan didn't control his belt, who would believe it?
Today's Jinyang Palace has truly belonged to the Li Tang royal family and has become the residence of the Li family.

The palace is still heavily guarded, and its owners are Li Zhi and Empress Wu. Of course, the emperor and Empress Wu rarely visit Bingzhou, and this palace has almost become a decoration.

However, the palace did not refuse the temporary residence of the royal clan. For example, Li Yuanying, the king of Teng, was eligible to live in the palace when he passed through Bingzhou.

Li Yuanying and the father and daughter of Jinxiang County have lived in the palace for more than a month. During this more than a month, Li Yuanying held banquets and dances with officials and literati in Bingzhou City all day long, chatting about poetry and poetry to philosophy of life.

Li Yuanying is a very special character. If he wants to generalize, he can only be said to be a dandy in the royal family. He is not interested in fame and wealth, but only likes to be lively, likes banquets, cockfights, dogfights, poetry, art and painting. He has a wide range of hobbies. But they are all unprofessional hobbies.

When the county lord of Jinxiang rushed back to the palace, in the side hall of the palace, Li Yuanying was fighting crickets with a group of literati, and everyone surrounded a cricket pot with rat whiskers, cheering hoarsely, and the crickets in the bucket became popular The eyes of the onlookers were also red.

When the county lord of Jinxiang stepped into the side hall, what he saw was such a smoky scene.

Frowning in disgust, Jin Xiang turned around without saying a word, but the sharp-eyed Li Yuanying spotted her and hurriedly called her name loudly: "Rui'er!"

Jin Xiang stopped and looked at him indifferently.

Li Yuanying rubbed his hands and stepped forward, laughing.

Li Rui, the head of Jinxiang County, is Li Yuanying's third daughter. Because she was beautiful and well-behaved since she was a child, she was deeply loved by Li Yuanying.

"What's wrong with Rui'er? You're so angry, who made this king's good daughter angry?"

Li Rui said coldly: "It's all right, father is well, and my daughter will not disturb father."

Li Yuanying grabbed her sleeve and said: "Don't hurry, tell Weifu, anyone who dares to make you angry is my enemy, I will kill him."

Li Rui frowned: "Father is an aristocrat of the heavenly family, how can he speak so vulgarly? Also, the palace is a forbidden place for the royal family, father, you summoned these..."

Looking at the messy so-called literati and celebrities in the side hall, Li Rui couldn't help but sighed helplessly, and didn't even bother to talk.

Who told her to have an unscrupulous father?

Glancing coldly at the smoky side hall, Jin Xiang turned his head and walked out.

Li Yuanying looked at her back, narrowed his eyes, and suddenly turned around and shouted: "My daughter is going out today, who will accompany her?"

Several maids outside the hall walked over tremblingly, and saluted Li Yuanying.

Li Yuanying's tone became colder, and he said, "Tell me, who is mad at this king's daughter?"
