Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Chapter 330 makes a strong debut!

Li Longji slapped his palm on the table and laughed.

"Okay, with Guo Aiqing here, why should I worry about Fan Xin's child being immortal!"

"You two listen!"

"Immediately he was promoted to Li Linfu as the Minister of Rites. He was responsible for the affairs of Tongpingzhang, the third rank of the Ministry of Education, and was promoted to the central government."

"Guo Zhiyun, the envoy of Jiedu on the right, was granted the title of General Zuowuwei and the envoy of Hedong Defense!"

Li Linfu and Guo Zhiyun were overjoyed and immediately knelt on the ground to express their loyalty.

"I thank Your Majesty for your kindness, and I will repay you with my life for the rest of my life!"

To be honest, they thought there would be a reward for this victory, but they didn't expect it to be so heavy.

One is second only to Zuo Prime Minister Zhang Shuo, and the other is second only to General Tiance Fan Xin, which can be regarded as a real rise to the sky.

"Okay, you two are tired from the long journey. Let's go back and rest for the night. I will publicize your achievements in the court tomorrow."

"Let these people see that Fan Xin is not the only one in the Tang Dynasty who can fight!"

After watching the two people leave, Li Longji glanced at Gao Lishi, who was coming in a hurry.

"How's it going? Have Shangguan Wan'er and Princess Taiping recruited them?"

"Your Majesty, these two women would rather die than say a bad word about Fan Xin. The Minister of Dali Temple asked you if you want to use a wooden donkey and a firing pin?"

"No need. These two women are as strong-tempered as their husbands. They will be tortured in front of Yingtian Gate in three days. Counting the days, Fan Xin should arrive in Luoyang."

Gao Lishi hesitated after hearing this.

"Your Majesty, let's forget about Shangguan Wan'er. After all, she is guilty. But Princess Taiping is the daughter of the royal family. If she is killed like this, I am afraid it will cause a civil uprising."

"This is a trouble." Li Longji rubbed his temples and suddenly said: "Forget it, let Ma Yuan, the minister of Dali Temple, come up with an unfounded charge to fill it in, so that the world can be stopped."

"Old slave, let's do it now."

Separating from Gao Lishi, Li Longji stretched and walked to the harem.

At the corner, a young man wearing a four-clawed golden dragon suit stood at the intersection.

"Li Ying, didn't I ask you to stay in the East Palace to cultivate yourself? Who asked you to come out!"

Li Ying took out a piece of mourning cloth from her arms and tied it around her waist, saying indifferently.

"Father, my mother and concubine just died of illness, can't I even declare my condolence?"

"Your mother is dead?"

Li Longji was startled, recalling a pale and sick woman in his mind.

If I remember correctly, it seems that I haven't seen her in two years, and I didn't expect that she would die like this.

But Li Longji didn't feel much. There were too many women in the harem, so a few less concubines didn't mean anything.

On the contrary, Li Ying's attitude towards him is worthy of vigilance.

Once such a son becomes emperor, won't he liquidate himself?

At this thought, Li Longji's eyes changed when he looked at Li Ying, as if the person in front of him was not his son, but another traitor.

"Okay, I understand. You can go back and handle the funeral yourself."

Looking at her father's back, Li Ying clenched her palms hidden in her sleeves tightly...

……

Hui'an Palace, main hall.

Since Concubine Wu Hui gave birth to several children, her status has become higher and higher. Although she is not a queen, she has become the number one person in the harem.

On this day, the hall was entertaining Princess Xianyi who came to the palace to visit.

"Xianyi, you said you are getting married?" Concubine Wu Hui leaned on the recliner and asked in disbelief.

Princess Xianyi nodded with a blushing face.

"After returning to my mother, my son has fallen in love with Yang Hui. Please tell your father about holding a wedding banquet for us."

Concubine Wu Hui rolled her eyes and was about to scold her when a loud laugh came from the door.

"Okay, my father has agreed, and I will grant you a marriage in a few days."

"Thank you, Father." Princess Xianyi saluted happily and ran out of the hall.

After her daughter left, Concubine Wu Hui said angrily: "Your Majesty, that boy Yang Hui is smooth-talking and has no ability. Isn't it appropriate to marry him?"

Li Longji shook his head and sighed.

"I am not afraid that men are incompetent now, but I am afraid that they are too capable and cannot be controlled."

Concubine Wu Hui had lived in the palace for a long time and was no longer Wu Xia Ameng, so she naturally heard the hidden meaning.

"Your Majesty, are you going to take action against Fan Xin?"

"That's right, we must first make peace at home before we fight against the outside world. If we don't solve this serious problem, I will never have peace!" At this point, Li Longji glanced at her and said with a half-smile.

"Why, are you reluctant to let me kill Fan Xin?"

Hearing this, Concubine Wu Hui glanced at Li Longji with a charming look, stretched out her white and tender feet and rubbed his hand.

"I am your concubine, a woman who is both prosperous and destitute. How could she turn to outsiders?"

"Kill him. After getting rid of Fan Xin, we can take over his huge property."

Li Longji laughed loudly, bent down and picked up Concubine Wu Hui and walked into the curtain.

Soon intermittent sounds came from inside.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Prince Li Ying was dissatisfied with you, so I contacted many ministers in private..."

……

Three days passed by in a flash. In the morning, thousands of soldiers blocked the road leading to Yingtianmen from Dali Temple.

As the cell door opened, Ma Yuan led a group of officers and soldiers into the prison, covered his nose and said to Princess Taiping in the cell.

"Your Highness, Shangguan Wan'er, this is the decapitation rice cooked by the royal chef because of your husband's meritorious service."

"Hurry up and eat. After you finish eating, I can send you two on your way!"

After saying this, two jailers walked into the cell with a sumptuous meal and placed it respectfully on the ground.

Princess Taiping stood up from the straw and said coldly without even looking at it.

"If you want to kill, cut me into pieces quickly, and stop talking nonsense!"

"That's right, take away the pig food that even these dogs won't eat." Shangguan Wan'er echoed.

"Okay, since you two don't appreciate it, then you're welcome, Ma. Come on, take it away!"

After giving the order, several muscular female jailers stepped forward, held down the two men's arms, and walked out of the prison.

Along the way, the people of Luoyang who came after hearing the news crowded forward, shouting that they were wronged!

Frightened, Ma Yuan and Zhang Tao quickly sent more troops to maintain order, and then they went to Yingtianmen smoothly.

In front of Yingtian Gate.

At this time, the three armies were standing here, the imperial flag was flying, and hundreds of civil and military ministers were standing on both sides of the emperor, looking into the distance.

In order to shock the world and revive Longwei, Li Longji specifically allowed all princes, nobles and common people to come to watch the execution.

What he didn't expect was that these people would actually side with the Fan family.

This made the murderous intention in Li Longji's heart become even more intense.

"Your Majesty, the people are getting out of control. Should we send more Yulin Guards?" Zhang said with a worried look on his face.

"It's accurate, I don't believe that anyone dares to stop the imperial court from killing the traitor today!"

With the emperor's authorization, Zhang Shuo ordered Guo Zhiyun to transfer his personal guards to the execution ground to maintain order and prevent the common people from causing trouble.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sudden roar from the crowd. "Look! Shangguan Wan'er and Princess Taiping are being escorted over!"

Everyone lifted their spirits and looked up, only to see two women in prison uniforms and heavy shackles walking step by step towards Yingtianmen under the scorching sun.

In an instant, the entire Yingtianmen fell silent, leaving only the sound of iron chains rubbing on the ground.

Wow!

Wow!

In the complicated eyes of everyone, Princess Taiping Shangguan Wan'er walked to the steps in front of Yingtian Gate. The high steps made it impossible for them to step up.

"Let's go!" In order to show off in front of the emperor, Ma Yuan picked up a whip and whipped the two women.

Seeing this scene, the onlookers immediately gave up and crowded forward, shouting to take off their shackles!
Even Li Longji and others were frowning. They were about to die, so why beat them?

"Zhang said to convey my will, untie their shackles and let them come up."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Zhang said bowed and snorted coldly at Ma Yuan.

"Your Majesty has a decree to order you to remove their shackles."

"Hey, I obey!" Ma Yuan nodded and bowed in agreement, then winked at his subordinates, "Unlock their shackles!"

After the heavy shackles were removed, Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er looked at each other, the latter's beautiful eyes were red.

"Sister, it was my sister who harmed you. I will pay for it with my life in my next life... wuwu..."

Wiping away the tears from the corners of Shangguan Wan'er's eyes, Princess Taiping sighed.

"Sister, there is no need to blame yourself. If you want to incriminate yourself, there is no excuse. The court has wanted to take action against your husband for a long time. Without this matter, there would be other excuses."

"You have done a great job by not betraying your husband under torture."

"If there is a chance in the next life, my sister will definitely give you a betrothal gift for your husband! Let me marry you."

"elder sister!"

"younger sister!"

The two hugged each other for a while, and Princess Taiping smiled and patted Shangguan Wan'er's shoulder.

"Okay, let's go up. Even if we die, we can't lose the name of the Fan family."

Shangguan Wan'er nodded, and the two walked up the street towards Li Longji.

Their eyes met, and there was a faint murderous intent in the air.

Signaling the ministers to stop where they were, Li Longji stepped down from the banquet and came to the two men, speaking ferociously in a voice that could be heard by the three of them.

"I will give you two one last chance to reveal the person behind the scenes. I will let you go, otherwise, you will die!"

Princess Taiping looked at Li Longji calmly, with a smile on her lips.

Shangguan Wan'er also shook her head with pity on her face.

"What do you mean?" Li Longji was startled and frowned.

"Li Longji, I laugh at you for being pitiful and pathetic. As an emperor, you are so incompetent that you use two women to deal with your ministers."

"Look through the history books and you will be worse than Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty. At least he would not be so cowardly as to vent his anger on women!" Princess Taiping said with a smile.

After hearing these words, Li Longji's eyes gradually narrowed, and his face became gloomy.

"Okay, if you are so disrespectful, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

With a heavy flick of his sleeves and robe, Li Longji returned to the execution platform and said calmly to Zhang Shuo.

"These two people have committed extremely heinous crimes. They will be executed immediately at three quarters at noon!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

After a brief conversation, silence fell in front of the Yingtian Gate of Nuoda, and everyone raised their heads to look at the sun in the sky.

Finally, when the shadow of the flagpole came to the center, Zhang said he coughed.

"The time has come, let's carry out the execution!"

Boom boom boom!
Amidst the rapid beating of drums, two sturdy men walked up to the stage holding ghost-headed knives, knelt down on one knee and hugged each other with a fist.

"Two madams, the wrongdoers have their own owners and the debtors have their owners. This villain is just making a living and has nothing to say. I will send you on your way!"

"Stop talking nonsense and be executed!" Princess Taiping and Shangguan Wan'er both closed their eyes and waited for their heads to fall to the ground.

The two executioners looked at each other, each took a sip of liquor and sprayed it on the ghost head knife, then raised the butcher knife high and aimed it at their necks.

At the critical moment, a loud shout resounded over the execution ground.

"His Royal Highness King Yan is here!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole place shook with thunder, and everyone turned around and looked down the steps.

There, a woman in a red dress walked toward the execution ground holding a portrait of Fan Xin.

Behind him, dozens of people with their heads wrapped in white cloth carried a stone statue and followed.

Judging by his appearance, he is clearly Fan Qingtian who is receiving incense offerings!
"Bold Yin Zhu! How dare you break into the execution ground without authorization? Aren't you afraid of His Majesty's wrath?" Ma Yuan, the minister of Dali Temple, said in a stern tone.

The voice just now almost scared him to death, but when he found out it was a portrait, he suddenly felt confident.

Princess Yinzhu held the portrait high, glanced at him with phoenix eyes and said coldly.

"Fan Xin is here, do you dare to stop him?"

"I!"

Ma Yuan wanted to say something to stop him, but he didn't want his eyes to meet the portrait.

Fan Xin in the painting lowered his head, as if looking at him, and did not dare to say the next words anyway.

With a bitter smile, he made way to the altar.

All the way to the altar, Princess Yinzhu hurriedly looked at the injuries of the two people.

"Are you okay? I will take you out right now!"

"We're fine, but you shouldn't come here. You'll only get yourself involved." Li Yunniang shook her head and said bitterly.

Princess Yinzhu snorted.

"Don't be afraid. Fan Xin's portraits and statues are all here, plus tens of thousands of people. I don't believe that Li Longji dares to risk the world's disapproval!"

"Sister, you don't understand Li Longji very well. This trick works for others, but it doesn't work for him." Shangguan Wan'er sighed.

Sure enough, Li Longji's sneer sounded in the prison shed.

"Yinzhu, as Mrs. Gaoming, you actually helped a rebel to plead for mercy. I think you don't want to live anymore, right?"

"Do you really think that just a statue can make me have any scruples?"

"Come here, smash the statue for me. I don't want to see this man's face anymore."

Being suppressed by Fan Xin again and again, Li Longji's heart was already distorted and he couldn't care about anything else.

Soon, Yu Linwei rushed to the altar and raised his weapon to hit the statue. In a few strokes, Fan Xin's statue was smashed.

Just as Princess Taiping was about to scold her, the common people gave up and broke through the blockade with a bang and rushed towards the altar, rushing towards the Yulin Guards in groups.

The damn officers and soldiers dared to smash their Fan Qingtian. This is not a big deal. These guys must be killed.

Seeing that the scene was in chaos, Li Longji became furious and ordered the last Yulin Guards to rush in and control the situation.

Just as the entire altar was screaming in agony, hundreds of figures descended from the sky and attacked the officers and soldiers. With their swords raised and falling, a group of officers and soldiers fell down.

"Your Highnesses, I'm here to rescue you, follow us quickly!" Tiangang urged in a hurry as he split the officers and soldiers with his sword.

"Want to leave? It's not that easy!" Li Longji sneered: Zhang said, it's time to show our methods. "

"Remember, don't let anyone go!"
