Chapter 364

The sergeant said at once:

"It's Yan Zhongcheng and Secretary Li from Yushitai's Yushitai supervisor."

Now Du Hongjian only felt a chill in his body.

Yushi Zhongcheng is the person in charge of Yushitai. Although he is not the prime minister, his role of supervising officials makes the position of Yushi Zhongcheng very important, and his authority is second only to the prime ministers.

Although secretary supervisor is not an important position, Li Mi has been the emperor's close minister since Lingwu ascended the throne.

If it wasn't for Li Mi's self-effacing, he would have already made Xuan Ma's obeisance to the prime minister.

The arrival of these two dignitaries in Lingwu represented the imperial court's distrust of Lingwu Longke.

No wonder all the memorials I played to play auspiciousness have disappeared!
Du Hongjian passed the Jinshi degree and practiced in the border town for many years.

He is a person who is about to enter the picture. After thinking a little bit, he finally got rid of the blind spot in his thinking.

The excavation during this period of time made him believe in the matter of the dragon bones, and he really reported the auspiciousness to the court.

But if Du Hongjian was an official of Fengxiang Mansion, or even the emperor on the throne, he might be skeptical of this auspiciousness, right?

If Zhang Tianlun hadn't dug out the leader from the beginning, Du Hongjian would not have supported him so much.

I am afraid that I have fallen into the battle in the court.

After understanding this point, Du Hongjian felt an indescribable sense of relief.

Du Hongjian instantly understood this truth.

Although Du Hongjian was a Jinshi selected by Wenwen Huaxuan in his early years, after many years in the border town, he was no longer that frail scholar.

Since someone in the court had already made a move, Du Hongjian naturally couldn't sit still.

He snorted coldly and said:
"These two imperial envoys are not kind!"

After thinking about this, Du Hongjian calmed down instead.

This auspiciousness is real, not only Du Hongjian saw it alone, but also the thousands of people who were digging at the scene watched the dragon skeleton dig out bit by bit.

Since the dragon bones are real, what is there to be afraid of?
No matter what kind of struggle you are involved in, as long as the dragon bone is real, you can break ten meetings with one force!

Soldiers come to block the water and cover it with soil!
Seeing the change in Du Hongjian's expression, the dental soldier hastily complained and asked:
"After staying, how will we receive the imperial envoy?"

"Reception? The imperial envoy is here with official business from the court, and I just need to cooperate."

"Then return to the Jiedu Ambassador's mansion now after staying?"

But Du Hongjian said: "Why do you want to go back to the Jiedu Mission's Mansion? I stayed to supervise the excavation of the dragon skeleton. I can't get away. Please ask the officials of the Jiedu Mission's Mansion to welcome the imperial envoy!"

The dental soldier was taken aback when he heard it.

Now is not the time when the feudal towns were separated in the late Tang Dynasty. The current Jiedu envoys are all appointed by the imperial court, and the court has a great influence on the Jiedu envoy's mansion.

Censor Zhongcheng was a senior member of the imperial court who was second only to the prime minister, yet Du Hongjian didn't even greet him in person?

"Why are you standing there, why don't you hurry up and convey the order from Ben Liu!"

The dental soldier then resigned.

After the dental soldiers left, Du Hongjian immediately said:
"Come on, keep an eye on everyone at the excavation site."

The dental soldiers started to move immediately, and the whole excavation site was in a slight commotion, but it soon calmed down again.

Du Hongjian's prestige in the Shuofang army was second only to Guo Ziyi, and he treated his soldiers generously on weekdays. After entering the Shuofang territory, Yan Zhenqing and Li Mi also saw a different scene.

Although this is a border pass, the order is in good order. Although all the males have been transferred to the expedition, it is much better than the Guanzhong prefectures that pass along the way.

Yan Zhenqing had never been to Lingwu, so she was surprised by the sight of Lingwu.

Li Mi helped the emperor to ascend the throne in Lingwu, and he also stayed in Lingwu for a few months, but he was not as surprised as Yan Zhenqing.

Yan Zhenqing couldn't help asking: "Why is Shuofang such a border area more stable than Guanzhong?"

Li Mi said: "Zhongcheng has never been to Lingwu, so naturally he doesn't know the scene of the town here."

"Lingwu soldiers are known to be brave and good at fighting. Almost every household in Lingwu has people who join the army."

"Northern martial arts, if you encounter injustice from the government or oppression by a powerful force, the soldiers will keep watch in the village, and if there is a mutiny, it will not end well."

"That's why the local government doesn't dare to oppress too much, and the powerful landlords don't dare to seize the people's land at will. On the contrary, Lingwu's officials are clearer than those in Guanzhong."

Li Mi said that at this time, there was no complacent expression on his face.

Although Lingwu is clearer than the officials in Guanzhong, the army chiefs oppress the people, and the folk customs are tough and brave. These are all problems of the Shuofang army town.

Beneath the appearance of Lingwu order is a more cruel and bloodthirsty chaos.

This seems stable, but under the delicate balance of violence, it is an extremely fragile balance.

Moreover, in order to allow Shuofang soldiers to fight, the imperial court has already exempted Shuozhou from renting for many years.

However, fighting with a large army requires the consumption of military funds, and the money will naturally be sent to other places.

Guanzhong and Jianghuai, the two places most exploited by the Tang court, are naturally empty.

Li Mi thought of Shuofang Jun's unruly appearance when he first arrived in Lingwu.

Later, relying on rewards, the imperial court gradually took control of the Shuofang army.

It was Guo Ziyi's lofty personal prestige that he overwhelmed these brave soldiers.

Putting away his messy thoughts, Li Mi caught up with Yan Zhenqing.

When Yan Zhenqing and his party entered Lingwu City, the officials of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion who had already received the news stood at the gate of the city to welcome them.

Li Mi looked around, but he didn't see Du Hongjian's figure left behind by the Jiedu envoy.

After staying in Lingwu for a while, Li Mi saw a familiar Jiedu envoy joining the army and asked, "Where are you staying?"

The soldier immediately said: "Go back to the secretary's prison and stay in the town outside Lingwu City."

Li Mi frowned and said, "What are you doing in the town after you stay?"

"After I stayed, I personally supervised the excavation of the dragon bones, and now I am still sitting in the town."

Li Mi was also a little surprised.

Before coming, Li Bi thought about countless possibilities.

After much deliberation, Li Mi finally speculated that the auspicious report this time should be due to Du Hongjian being confused for a while, and lied about the auspiciousness in order to boost the morale of the army.

It's just that the matter involved a complicated fight in the court, and this matter was brought up again.

Li Mi thought for a long time, and for the stability of the court situation, he could only help Du Hongjian to cover up this matter as much as possible.

Especially in such a big battle, it's best to delay until the end of the war, and then find a way to deal with Du Hongjian.

Originally, Li Mi believed in his speculation, but when he heard that Du Hongjian was at the excavation site, he was puzzled again.

The itinerary along the way was arranged by Li Mi. Yesterday, he purposely stayed at the post house instead of going directly to Lingwu City, just to give Du Hongjian time to deal with it.

If Du Hongjian really forged the dragon skeleton, then he should destroy the evidence as much as possible, and drag it down with the imperial envoys in his line.

Li Mi had already made up his mind to help Du Hongjian like this, and with his cooperation, Lingwu was once again Shuofang's territory.

No matter how upright Yan Zhenqing is, she will definitely not be able to find out the truth about Xiangrui so quickly.

Li Mi's solution was to procrastinate, but what happened to Du Hongjian?

Doesn't he know the reason for procrastination?

Hearing that Du Hongjian was present, Yan Zhenqing smiled on his staid and serious face.

He directly said to the Shuofang army's enlisted troops: "Then we won't go into the city anymore, we will go directly to see Du Liuhou!"

Li Mi secretly yelled that it was not good, if he really met Du Hongjian, there would really be no room for maneuver.

Li Mi was about to persuade her again, Yan Zhenqing had already mounted the horse again.

Li Mi secretly thought it was bad, he had already forgotten that Yan Zhenqing was a fierce man who could organize rebels behind enemy lines and fight against the rebels.

It's not the censors in the court who can only spit.

But seeing that Yan Zhenqing had already rode away, Li Mi quickly got on the horse and said:
"Zhong Cheng! Wait for me!"

Yan Zhenqing raced all the way, and finally came to the town where the dragon bones were excavated.

As the censor Zhongcheng, Yan Zhenqing had the duty to picket the officials. He was upright by nature, and what he hated most were those who flattered and flattered him.

In Yan Zhenqing's view, it was the flattering courtiers who came to this point in Tang Dynasty.

From Li Linfu to Yang Guozhong, the two generations of traitors tolerated and indulged the careerist An Lushan.

Officials at all levels dare not tell the truth. This is the chief culprit of the world's downfall.

So since he served as Yushi Zhongcheng, he has been upright and upright. He has participated in many ministers along the way, leaving a reputation of Yan Tiegu in the court.

The town where the dinosaurs were excavated was not far from Lingwu City. When Yan Zhenqing saw the bustling town, he felt even more dissatisfied.

After seeing the soldiers wearing the uniforms of Shuofang Army sergeants, Yan Zhenqing's dissatisfaction reached the extreme.

In order to flatter the emperor, Du Hongjian, the Shuofang army, actually mobilized so many manpower to forge auspicious omens!
This kind of treacherous villain actually holds such an important post in Shuofang's army, Yan Zhenqing has already made up his mind, when he returns to Lingwu, he must vigorously participate in Du Hongjian's performance!
Li Mi rode a horse and caught up with Yan Zhenqing out of breath.

Li Mi was also stunned when he saw the bustling town.

What the hell is Du Hongjian doing to make the battle so big?
Yan Zhenqing was wearing a red and purple official robe, which immediately attracted the attention of Du Hongjian's soldiers.

After a while, Du Hongjian came out of the town in official robes.

"Welcome Yan Zhongcheng, secretary supervisor."

Du Hongjian was also an important court official with the title of Minister of War, so he just bowed his hands and saluted.

Yan Zhenqing dismounted and said: "Ministry Du Bing, I follow the order of the sage to come to Lingwu to investigate the auspiciousness of the dragon bones."

Li Mi never expected that things would develop to this point.

Yan Zhenqing didn't even enter Lingwu City, so he directly confronted King Du Hongjian!

Du Hongjian stood where he was and said, "Please ask for the saint's will."

Yan Zhenqing sneered, and took out the imperial decree from his sleeve.

After the edict was read out, Yan Zhenqing directly helped Du Hongjian up and said:
"Ministry Du, do you know where this Dragon Skeleton Xiangrui is?"

Du Hongjian pointed to the town behind him and said:
"The dragon skeleton is in the town, I'll take the two angels to see it."

 Mid-Autumn Festival!
  I wish you all a family reunion!
