Chapter 254: Sealing

The cold wind and snowflakes were flying. In the middle of the yard before the mourning hall, there were civil servants and military generals kneeling all over the ground. The one at the bottom was naturally Li Anguo, the governor of Chengde, and Li Ze was half a step behind him.

In the wind and snow, the person who read the order loudly was the imperial envoy of the Emperor of Chang'an and the left servant Wang Duo.

With a high-ranking official like Zuo Pushe as the imperial envoy, the court naturally gave Li Anguo and Li Ze a great face, and also reflected the court's emphasis on the father and son today.

Lulong Jieduan Zhang Zhongwu raised the flag to rebel. His men were strong and powerful. First, he wiped out tens of thousands of elite soldiers in one battle, and then defeated Gao Pian, the Hedong Jieduan who was leaning on the court as a pillar, and even threw the Yanmen Pass of Daizhou to the other side.

This result made other governors in the world feel ready to move. As the world sees it, the chaos will arise again. When the Chang'an court is in a terrifying state, Chengde, after the great defeat, becomes strong again.

First, Li Ze used the troops of a state to sweep away all the soldiers and horses of Zhang Zhongwu's minions and the governor of Henghai.

Then Chengde launched another army and counterattacked Zhang Zhongwu's other minion, Zhenwu Wangfeng. It was these battles that made the precarious Tang Dynasty world barely stabilize again.

For the Chang'an court, Li Anguo and his son naturally made great contributions.

When will we not win over at this time?

What's more, Li Che, the son of Li Anguo, died at the hands of Lu Long, and the two sides formed an indissoluble grudge, so the court was even more optimistic.

I'm afraid Zhu Shou is the most aggrieved one here. By the way, he really doesn't think he is Zhang Zhongwu's minion. He just wants to take advantage of the chaos in the world and get a share of Chengde.

But now he has become a dead person. No matter what the court has convicted him of, a person lying under the ground can never get up from the coffin and scream.

Zhu Shou also became the first Jiedushi to be killed in this era of drastic changes in the world.

Of course, when Wang Duo set out from Chang'an, Cheng De was still fighting with Zhenwu, and he didn't know that Wang Feng was also killed by Cheng De people.

Cao Xin vowed to kill the nine clans of Wang Feng on the top of the city of Shenzhou to avenge his nephew Wang Mingren. After Wang Feng was defeated by the Yishui River and was chopped off by Wang Wenshu, Cheng De's army also took advantage of the victory to capture Yizhou, Dingzhou.

Although Wang Wenshu did not kill Wang Feng's ninth clan, the three clans still killed him.

Wang Duo naturally would not be a pity for Wang Feng, but was very happy in his heart. Naturally, everyone could punish such a traitor.

However, this also brought a problem, because when he came out, Dingzhou and Yizhou were still in the hands of Wang Feng! No one expected that Dingzhou and Yizhou would change hands so soon, so the court did not mention the stay or departure of these two states at all.

However, this issue obviously doesn't need to be considered now. That is a headache for the emperor and the three senior officials of the Secretary of the Central Secretariat. What he has to do now is to complete the work at hand and then have a good talk with Li Anguo and Li Ze.

I was happy in my heart, and this imperial edict was even more vivid.

This made Li Ze, who was kneeling down, couldn't help but complain secretly, and cursed in his heart. He didn't know that the eulogy written by the bookworm was extremely gorgeous. The full article was also accompanied by Wang Duo's hard reading, which really infected many people at the scene.

It's really cold outside.

Although he was wearing enough clothes under the mourning clothes, he still couldn't resist the invasion of the cold wind, and the silk clothes on his body could not keep the snow water out. Li Ze had already felt the melted water of the snow and began to slowly invade his body. He felt his knees sore and trembled. His father, Li Anguo, who had been sick for a long time, could not hold on.

He looked up at the kneeling father in front of him, and indeed his father's body was trembling slightly.

Perhaps Wang Duo finally discovered the problem, and then accelerated the reading rhythm. With his voice, this huge masterpiece finally came to an end.

"Ship Li, please accept the order!" Wang Duo handed the imperial edict to Li Anguo's raised hands. With Li Anguo's thanks, Li Ze thought everything was over, but Wang Duo turned around and took out the second imperial edict.

Li Ze couldn't help but complain.

Fortunately, the second decree was much shorter, and it was nothing more than the loyalty of the governor of Jiede, Li Anguo, who was loyal to the country, fought for the country, defeated the enemy, and showed his prestige. Therefore, he was granted the title of Jiede, Li Anguo, who was appointed as the Minister of the Shangshu and rewarded him.

This is a reward that is too empty to be more empty. At the end of the Tang Dynasty, positions such as Shangshu Ling had become an honorary position. For example, Gao Pian also also served Shangshu Ling. In addition to being able to receive an extra salary openly, Mao did not use it.

After Li Anguo received another imperial edict, he stood aside with the help of You Yong and Minrou. His face was pale and he was almost unsteady. He was entirely dependent on the two generals holding him quietly, one on the left and the other on the right.

But it was not over yet, because Wang Duo took out the third imperial edict.

This one is for Li Ze.

Li Zeping was awarded the title of the governor of Henghai, Zhu Shou, for his contribution to destroying the rebels, and for his contribution to the title of the governor of Henghai, and for the commander of the Qianniu Guard.

This position is much more affordable than Li Anguo's Secretariat, because General Qianniu Guard is a serious third-rank military general. With this position, Li Ze can open another mansion to the General Qianniu Guard Mansion outside the Jiedu Town.

The soldiers and horses of the Jiedushi in each town are the local soldiers and are supported by the local government, but the soldiers and horses of the Qianniu Guard General's Mansion are the regular army of the court, and they want the court to get silver.

Regardless of whether the court can take it out or not, at least Li Ze can reach out to the court with a legitimate and clear manner. The court will either give money or give policies to him to get the money himself.

And this is also the reason why Li Ze always wanted.

With such a status, many things can be done openly without worrying about the bad comments of the world.

Now Li Ze is naturally no longer the small rural landlord who wanted to live a life of secret life and enjoy his life. He has set his ambitions and cannot let his reputation have any flaws. If a piece of white paper is splashed with black ink, even if you try your best to dye it white, the stains from the past will not be completely erased.

"Thank you, Lord!" Li Ze was willing to shout. As long as he gave him good things, he would be very happy.

When dealing with Li Ze, Wang Duo was much more intimate. After handing over the imperial edict, he personally helped Li Ze up from the ground with both hands. His two smiling eyes stared at Li Ze, and he kept praising the young talent. The words of praise were pouring out from his two thick lips like flowing water. He cited the scriptures and said it well. Li Ze, who was originally very thick-skinned, blushed. Li Ze could not learn this skill that was not the same for a long time.

Wang Duo looked at Li Ze, and Li Ze was also taking the opportunity to pay attention to Wang Duo, but his understanding of Wang Duo was much more than Wang Duo knew about him. At this moment, his focus was Wang Duo's face that was well maintained.

This person is about the same age as his father, but he seems to be in his thirties. No wonder Gongsun Changming said that this person is well-known for his own reputation. If he becomes familiar with him in the future, he might as well learn the methods of health preservation with him. This is much better than other things that are stupid.

After finally waiting for Wang Feng's lips to close, Li Ze said softly: "Wang Pushe is accused of praise, but my father is in a bad state and it is really not easy to stay in the wind and snow. Why would you ask Pushe to move into the hall so that Li Ze can finish the friendship of the landlord?"

"General Li is filial to him, it's Wang Menglang." Wang Duo turned his head and looked at Li Anguo who was pretending to be smiling, and said in a row.

"Pushe is also in charge of official duties." Li Ze said with a smile: "My father has prepared a banquet and ask Pushe to admire his face."

"Please, please." Wang Duo nodded repeatedly and looked at Li Anguodao again: "Li Shuai is ill, so why not go to rest. Li Shuai is the pillar stone of my Tang Dynasty border, so I must not make any mistakes."

Li Zehan nodded with a smile: "Whether, Ze originally had this idea, but he was afraid that Pushe would feel rude, so he would not be able to speak out. Pushe really could understand the feelings."

"Where are there!"

Now, with the support of You Yong and Minrou, Li Anguo also came to Wang Duo and sued Wang Duo. Then he left with a staggering pace and went to the back hall to rest. Today's trouble will probably worsen his condition.

Looking at Li Anguo's back, Wang Duo's face, which was full of smiles, showed a look of worry in his squinting eyes.

When the Chengde Jiedushi was holding a banquet to entertain the imperial envoy from the Chang'an court, it was still in the Xiangfei Pavilion in Zhuxuan, and Gongsun Changming also welcomed an envoy from Lu Long.

Today, Chengde's civil and military officials are all welcoming Wang Duo, only Gongsun Changming, the idle cloud and wild crane, has time to entertain Lu Long's envoy. Of course, although Gongsun Changming is only a white man, his status cannot be doubted, and his identity will not make Lu Long people disgusted.

No matter what, Gongsun Changming was their comrade-in-arms who had fought side by side for many years.

"Who am I? It turns out it's Zhongwen? It seems that Zhang Shuai really doesn't value this meeting very much." Looking at the messenger Lu Long appeared in front of him, Gongsun Changming was also a little surprised. The one who came was Zhang Zhongwu's brother, Zhang Zhongwen.

"Mr. Gongsun!" Zhang Zhongwen, who had been trekking through the wind and snow, looked at Gongsun Changming at the entrance of Xiangfei Pavilion and sighed: "I really didn't expect to meet again, but it was in such an occasion. To be honest, Lu Long really doesn't want to be enemies with his husband."

"The way is different, don't make plans for each other." Gongsun Changming said: "Zhongwen, there is no need to say that. It's strong wind outside, come in and warm it up. You are not Zhang Zhongwu. You have a savage body, don't freeze it."

Zhang Zhongwen smiled bitterly and shook his head, and walked into the Xiangfei Pavilion.

"It's not that Chengde is negligent, but that the imperial envoys have also entered Zhending City today. At this moment, they are welcoming the angels, and I am the only one to entertain you." Gongsun Changming explained.
