If Li Longji has any banned words in his mind now, it is nothing more than the word "break". The banned martial arts performance is the suggestion of the Taishi Supervisor, in order to eliminate the ominous signs of the fracture of the dragon flag.

As a result, not long after the martial arts performance, the weapons of the Left Guard soldiers broke one after another.

This ominous sign was a big deal, which was even worse. Li Longji's originally anxious mood was just like adding fuel to the fire, and his mentality instantly broke.

Long Yan was furious, and the thunder changed color.

If it is normal for the left guard soldiers to break a group of weapons, Li Longji would only express his dissatisfaction at most and then issue an order to investigate thoroughly.

However, when the weapons of the Left Guard soldier were broken today, Li Longji was very angry because today's different. The purpose of today's martial arts was very fantastic and belonged to metaphysics. Metaphysics is the most taboo to cause trouble. As a result, Li Longji was troubled by the beginning of the martial arts performance.

"Take the broken weapons and I'll take a look for them myself." Li Longji said with a gloomy face.

The weapons were soon presented by eunuchs and arranged in a row in a mess in front of Li Longji. Li Longji bent down and picked up a long halberd and looked carefully. The long halberd was newly built, with the handle made of wooden, the tip of the halberd was made of iron, and the broken part was the tip of the halberd.

Li Longji stared at the broken part of the halberd tip, rubbed the broken surface with his fingers. The hand felt rough, and there were many irregular particles and small holes on the new broken surface.

Li Longji took a look and realized that although he had been the Emperor Taiping for forty years, he had relied on the palace to become a leader and had personally taken charge of military power for many years. He was not aware of military affairs. He could tell at a glance what the problem was.

"Who bought pig iron? This kind of pig iron is not enough to make agricultural tools. He dares to use it to make weapons. Who is doing this?" Li Longji said furiously.

The ministers looked at each other and dared not speak.

Guo Ziyi walked over with a flag in his hand, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, it is the official in the left guard who is not in charge. Please punish him."

Li Longji is quite respectful to Guo Ziyi, after all, he is a famous general in the world. So Li Longji smiled at him and said, "General Guo does not need to blame himself. This matter will be investigated clearly. If the purchase is not handled by General Guo, it will have nothing to do with you."

With his eyes fiercely looking around the ministers, Li Longji said evilly: "Corruption is so corrupt that you are so brave that you are too brave. If you don't find out this matter, how can I sleep peacefully?"

"This matter should be handled strictly. No matter who is involved, you cannot let it go! Gao Lishi!"

Gao Lishi beside him stood up and bowed: "I'm here."

"This matter is left to you. The Ministry of Justice, Dali Temple, and the Censorate Department must be investigated for me. All the weapons and uniforms of the guards in the north and south yamen will be investigated first, and the officials of the left guards will be investigated first!"

The ministers were upset, but they dared not speak out.

The three judicial departments jointly handled a case, which has not happened for many years. Li Longji nailed the case to death with just one word, and there was no room for improvement.

In the crowd, Ji Wen, the doctor of the Ministry of Revenue, had no expression on his face and sweated like rain. He knew that his doomsday was coming.

Gao Lishi lowered his head and smiled bitterly. Although he didn't know which god's mastermind was, he could reach into the left guard of the Forbidden Palace to show that he was powerful. If this case continues, he doesn't know what kind of big shots will be found in the end. Those who have the energy to do this in the court can count it with a slap, but there are only a few people.

Who told me that this man was blind? Even the left guard dared to reach out and tamper with weapons. He was so bold that he was arrogant.

The dragon flag broke yesterday, and the weapons broke today. You can imagine how angry Li Longji was. What's more, the responsibility of the Left Guard is to protect the ban. The emperor's safety depends on the protection of elite soldiers such as the Left Guard Jinwu Guard. These people are so corrupt that they are not as good as fire sticks to equip the soldiers with things that are worse than fire sticks. This touched Li Longji's reverse scales.

Li Longji loved Yang Guifei so deeply. Yang Guifei's sister was unwilling to dismount in the Forbidden Palace and whipped the guards a few more whips. Li Longji was furious and drove Yang Guifei back to his parents' home. What is the crime of now giving the soldiers of the left guard a weapon made of inferior pig iron?

Gao Lishi was guessing Li Longji's thoughts and speculated from the degree of Li Longji's anger to what extent this case should be done to relieve Li Longji.

The martial arts performance in the forbidden area has basically failed.

Li Longji's anger was not gone, and his heart became more and more frightened. Two ominous signs appeared in two days. I don't know what kind of disasters would be waiting for him. Thinking that today's martial arts performance was destroyed by a group of corrupt officials, Li Longji felt very angry.

"It's all gone, it's said that the Taishi Supervisor came to Hua'e Building."

…………

The storm in Chang'an City suddenly began.

Li Longji was determined to deal with this corruption case strictly. From the fact that he appointed Gao Lishi, whom he trusted the most, to investigate and handle it himself, he could see how firm his determination was.

The officials of the guards in Chang'an City were in panic. It was obviously just a matter of the left guard, but the guards were going to be investigated strictly, which was a problem.

Although the guards have not been involved in this corruption case, as today's peace has been in peace for a long time, whether it is civil officials or military generals, who has not done many shameful things at work? If Gao Lishi continues to investigate and pull out the radish and bring out the mud, many shameful things will be exposed.

So after Li Longji issued the order, the officials of the Chang'an guards were calm on the surface, but in fact they were in chaos. Many officials were silently filling holes or busy extinguishing evidence. In the past few days, several murders and murders occurred in Chang'an City.

Gu Qing quietly set up this game, originally only targeting Li Linfu, but unexpectedly, he pried all the guards in Chang'an City, which was a stir.

The Zuowei corruption case is not difficult to investigate. The difficulty is whether Li Longji is willing to investigate and who will send someone to investigate. The evidence is easy to find, and even the envoy behind the scenes is easy to find. The difficulty is whether he dares to touch the person behind the scenes.

Li Longji sent Gao Lishi, an old eunuch who was only loyal to Li Longji.

On the third day of Gao Lishi's entry into the Left Guard, a total of more than ten officials were taken to Dali Temple. Even Gu Qing was questioned by Gao Lishi in person. Fortunately, Gu Qing had never been involved in this case, and why did the chief officials not sign the sign in the necessary process of the list? Gu Qing also explained that because he saw that the list was not right, he did not dare to take responsibility rashly, so he refused to sign the sign, so the corrupt officials walked around the process.

On the fifth day, three officials from the Ministry of Revenue were ordered to be taken down by Gao Lishi, including Ji Wen, a doctor of the Ministry of Revenue.

Ji Wen is a cruel official, but he is obviously not a good man. Before he was tortured in the prison, he cried and cried, and finally confessed to Li Linfu.

Gao Lishi was frightened and dared not investigate anymore because he knew that the next thing had nothing to do with the corruption case and had risen to a political level. Whether Li Longji killed Li Linfu or released it depends entirely on how Li Longji weighed.

So Gao Lishi handed Ji Wen's confession to Li Longji. After Li Longji carefully looked at the confession, he suddenly sneered twice and told Gao Lishi that all the officials involved in the case were punished according to the law. Among them, three officials from the Ministry of Revenue, including Ji Wen, were beheaded in the street.

Then Li Longji also asked about Li Linfu's condition. After learning that Li Linfu's condition was getting worse, Li Longji ordered Gao Lishi to send all the files and confessions involved in the case to Li Linfu's mansion. According to the rules, the death penalty for officials involved in the Tang Dynasty must be discussed by the three provinces before being arrested. Li Linfu is the right prime minister, and this matter happened to be within his power.

Li Longji's ruthless thoughts are evident when he handed over all the lists and confessions involved to the envoy behind the case for review.

Gao Lishi personally sent the confession and list to Li Linfu's mansion. Even though Li Linfu was lying on the sickbed and dying, Gao Lishi patiently waited for him to wake up and then showed him the confession. Li Longji finally left some kindness with the monarch and minister, and Ji Wen's confession was not shown to Li Linfu.

After seeing the confession, Li Linfu was speechless. He didn't say a word for a long time. As he looked, he fell asleep in front of Gao Lishi.

The next morning, Li Linfu handed a memorial to Li Longji, begging for bones and asking for retirement.

Li Longji's instructions were not allowed. Li Xiangming could still serve the people for a few more years.

Li Linfu submitted another memorial and asked to retire again. Li Longji was still not allowed. His instructions were full of enthusiasm and affectionately tried to keep them. The king and his ministers remained unquestioned throughout their lives. You know that I don’t just like you...

After the monarch and ministers repeatedly competed with their acting skills several times, Li Linfu finally submitted a memorial. He was old and had a heavy illness and could not bear the labor. Since he was not allowed to resign from the minister, please reduce his workload. I requested to hand over the power of the Censorate and only the power of the Ministry of Personnel.

This time Li Long is benchmarked.

…………

Zhang Jiuzhang Mansion.

These days, Chang'an City has been surging, but it has nothing to do with Zhang Jiuzhang. Honglu Temple belongs to the Qingshui Yamen, so it is difficult to have any oil and water. Zhang Jiuzhang is also clean as an official. Those who have a clear conscience are not afraid of storms and waves.

However, Zhang Jiuzhang saw the various officialdoms in Chang'an City these days. After hearing that Li Linfu had to hand over the power of the Censorate, Zhang Jiuzhang was happy and invited his old friend Li Guangbi to have a drink.

On the night when he came back from Li Guangbi's mansion, Zhang Jiuzhang blushed and staggered, but he was in a good mood and hummed an unknown song while walking.

It was late at night, and Zhang Jiuzhang, who had just returned home, was walking in the yard. Suddenly, a figure rushed out from the slant, scaring Zhang Jiuzhang to death, and he woke up three points in his drunkenness.

"Second Patriarch, you ran around again and came back in the middle of the night. Look at you, you are drunk, what kind of decent things you have become!" Zhang Huaijin stood in front of Zhang Jiuzhang, and gave a lesson with a proud look on his waist.

Zhang Jiuzhang couldn't help but be furious, and raised his palm and wanted to suck her.

Zhang Huaijin giggled and quickly flicked away: "Every time you say that, why can't they say you?"

Zhang Jiuzhang was in a good mood tonight, and Li Linfu's prime minister was cut off half again. Zhang Jiuzhang felt happy after thinking about it. He was in a good mood, so he was too lazy to be angry with a little girl.

Most of the upright court officials had no good impression of Li Linfu. Li Linfu was not only corrupt, but also made many directional mistakes in handling the court affairs, such as selecting a large number of Hu generals to guard the border, handing over the borders of the Tang Dynasty to those who are not my race, etc.

However, Li Linfu's thoughts were mostly focused on fighting with the Eastern Palace. Once the court had a party struggle, it was often overstated. In order to compete for the power of the court, Li Linfu put a large number of court officials who cursed him in an unsuitable position. In recent years, it has been gradually seen that the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty were getting worse and worse, and these were directly related to Li Linfu.

Therefore, Li Linfu was deposed, and the upright ministers in the court were secretly happy and applauded.

Zhang Jiuzhang is one of them.

The courtyard was pitch black late at night, and only Zhang Huaijin's clear and shiny eyes were vaguely seen.

Zhang Jiuzhang rubbed her head docilely and said with a smile: "I haven't been asleep so late, and I have to get up early tomorrow. Have you remembered all the lessons taught by Master?"

Zhang Huaijin was a little stunned. Unexpectedly, the second ancestor was not angry and laughed so gently. Are you confused when you drink?

"Second ancestors have encountered something happy, right?" Zhang Huaijin asked tentatively.

When Zhang Jiuzhang mentioned this, he laughed and said, "Let's go to the front hall, I will tell you slowly. It's so satisfying. It's so good!"

Zhang Huaijin was confused when she heard this, but it was rare that the Second Patriarch Weng was happy. She couldn't sleep, so she simply chatted with the Second Patriarch Weng.

He helped Zhang Jiuzhang into the front hall. Before Zhang Jiuzhang was drunk, he ordered his servants to get the wine again. Then he waved all the servants in the front hall, leaving only the grandparents and grandchildren sitting opposite each other.

Zhang Huaijin filled Zhang Jiuzhang with a wink. Zhang Jiuzhang tilted his neck and drank it clean, exhaled a long breath, and laughed twice again.

"Why is the second ancestor so happy? Tell me quickly." Zhang Huaijin shook his arm and acted coquettishly.

Zhang Jiuzhang stroked the broken wine stains on his beard and laughed in a low voice: "Li Linfu was stripped of his prime minister's power. Today he handed over the power of the Censorate to His Majesty. The power of supervision in the court will change hands in the future. Perhaps the court will be a little clearer, which is a good thing, a great thing."

Zhang Huaijin was not interested in the affairs of the government and yawned unhappily, saying, "That's it? Is it worth being so happy? Why did Li Xiang hand over the power?"

Zhang Jiuzhang smiled and said, "Because, Li Linfu was trapped and hit. Haha, the prime minister of the dynasty was plotted by a boy, and he was a boy of a sixth rank official. It's so satisfying, it's a big deal!"

After saying that, Zhang Jiuzhang drank another cup of pain.

Zhang Huaijin blinked innocently, and it sounded very interesting. There were wine and stories here, so I had to continue listening.

After filling Zhang Jiuzhang with wine again, Zhang Huaijin said expectantly: "Second Zuweng, please tell me in detail."

Zhang Jiuzhang said slowly: "I just came back from Li Guangbi's mansion and heard about some things. Haha, the Zuo Guard was in a mess recently and dug up a huge corruption case. Have you heard of this?"

Zhang Huaijin blinked: "It seems that I have heard some of them, but I didn't listen anymore if I was not interested."

Zhang Jiuzhang shook his head: "You are too wild and too erratic. You are unwilling to calm down and listen more to everything. You may miss a lot of excitement in life. Compared to Gu Qing, you are much worse than Gu Qing."

Zhang Huaijin said dissatisfiedly: "Why are Haohao comparing with him? Of course my second brother is powerful, but he is just a little better than me."

It seemed that in order to prove his words, Zhang Huaijin added: "His writing is ugly than mine!"

When Zhang Jiuzhang heard the names "second brother and third brother" and felt a headache and shook his dizzy head. Zhang Jiuzhang decided not to care about the names tonight, so as not to destroy his good mood.

With a cold snorted, Zhang Jiuzhang looked at her with contempt and said, "It's so a little bit amazing? Do you know that in the Zuowei corruption case, who was the person who secretly made a plan for Li Linfu and quietly made a plan?"
