Chapter 144 Upgrade
There is no free lunch in the world. This is true in ancient and modern times. If you eat their food, you will naturally have to give an explanation to everyone.
Coincidentally, General Qian An, the lieutenant of Youyi Prefecture, led a team passing by. When he saw people gathering around here, he took them forward to check.
Seeing the two brothers Li Kuan and Li Ke, they were about to turn around when they were stopped by the King of Chu. I felt bitter in my heart, so I could only step forward in despair and bow down to listen to the instructions!
"Do you recognize me?"
No matter how stupid Qian An is, he knows that this is called a private interview. He doesn't dare to reveal his identity, so he can only agree verbally.
As long as you recognize them, things will be easier to deal with later. Li Kuan told the merchants in the market that as the official of the imperial court and their former parents, he would not sit idly by and ignore what happened to you.
He has just come back from the front line and has not washed away his military career. After a little preparation, he will go to the palace to see the saint. He will write down the things here in the memorial and present them to the saint in person to impeach the officials who oppress good people and do evil and harm the people.
Official.
Before the saint issued an edict, the daily affairs here were entrusted to General Qian An to maintain them. All vendors and people selling farm crops did not have to pay a penny in addition to normal taxes and fees.
If someone makes trouble again, or comes to ask for food under other pretexts, Youyi Mansion can't handle it and dare not take care of it. They can go to the Baiqiwei Yamen Office, and someone will naturally handle it and seek justice for them.<
/p>
"General Qian, is it okay?"
Qian An's heart is as painful as Huang Lian's. The two kings of Chu and Wei have to fight against each other, and he has to be caught in the middle. What can he say? He can only blame him for his bad fate, should he die or not?
I became the lieutenant general.
Besides, the Qian family is the retainer of the Li family. His father Qian Jiulong began to follow the late emperor to him. The six father and son of the Qian family served in the imperial army one after another. The princes are their young masters, so he naturally wants to listen to Li Kuan's words.
.
"Okay, General Qian, you still have room for promotion!" After patting Qian An, Li Kuan took Li Ke and left.
But after leaving Shifang, Li Kuan did not return to Baiqiwei. Instead, he took the two of them straight to the Palace of Wei Prince in Yankangfang.
Seeing Li Kuan start to roll up his sleeves, Wan Xuandao was confused and held his arm and refused to let go: "Your Highness, Qian Fan, don't be impulsive!"
Li Ke also gave good advice, saying that the Prince of Wei's Mansion was not that intrusive. The guards were all elites selected from the Imperial Guards. They had experienced hundreds of battles and had nothing to say about their good deeds.
Li Tai is missing in the nest, and just the three of them can't handle these guards alone, let alone beat Li Tai. It would be good if the three of them don't get beaten.
Li Ke thought that he should go back to wash up and sleep first, and then go to the palace with the memorial tomorrow morning to impeach him. If his father was indifferent and favored the third child, Li Ke would accompany him to beat the fourth child.
"Yes, yes! King Wu is right, your highness should just follow the good deeds!"
"That's right, I warned him before he left. If he continues to seek fame and reputation and does bad things to the people, I will whip him!"
After speaking, Li Kuan ignored the two men's dissuasion and walked towards the gate of Prince Wei's Mansion. The two guards guarding the door stretched out their hands to stop him, but Li Kuan really showed his respect and gave each of them a slap in the face.
The two guards were guarding the door of Prince Wei's Mansion. When did they get this angry? Before the sword was unsheathed, they saw the royal seal in Li Kuan's hand. They were so frightened that they almost lost their souls and knelt down in panic.
Come down and kowtow to apologize.
But Li Kuan ignored the two of them, lifted up his skirt and walked straight in.
Overbearing, too overbearing! Li Kuan was slapping the guard in the face. He was clearly slapping Li Tai in the face. But it’s not surprising that Li Kuan came just to beat the fourth child. Li Kuan also looked at each other helplessly and stood firm.
The scalp followed.
When the three of them entered the middle courtyard, Li Tai was having a barbecue in the courtyard. When he saw Li Kuan approaching fiercely, the meat in his hand fell directly to the ground, and he stuttered and asked: "You, what are you going to do!"
This is nonsense! Isn’t it obvious what you are doing?
Li Tai is the darling of the saint, and even if he does something wrong, he still teaches him. But Li Kuan is not a spoiled parent, and his way of dealing with this kind of thing is very simple, just punch to the flesh.
In this way, the mighty Li Tai was reduced to a fool, crying and calling for the guards to come to his rescue.
"Yes, that's right! Just draw your sword and chop it on my head. Only one sword strike can save your King Wei!"
"Do you know what the crime of drawing a sword on the prince is? It is regarded as conspiracy and the nine tribes are to be killed."
The matter is obvious. If the guards don't interfere, the two kings will just fight each other as brothers. But if they get involved, the nature will change.
When gods fight, they can pass the test in front of saints, but when it comes to holding people accountable, it's better to take it out on these little soldiers.
Seeing these guards still standing there in a daze, Li Kuan shouted angrily: "What are you doing here, get out of here!"
Who is the King of Chu? He is a famous general in the entire army. Even if they risk their lives, can they survive these two attacks? They can still choose between losing their jobs and losing their lives.
The guards who were granted amnesty also took advantage of King Chu's words to get off their donkeys, put away their swords, and ran away in despair. Li Tai who was beaten was dumbfounded!
After the scene was cleared, Li Kuan pinched the fat man's collar and said with a frosty face: "Li Tai, I warned you, remember?"
"You are ambitious, and I don't object to it. If you want to sit in that chair, you can kill or rob it. But you should never, never go to those poor people to earn political achievements."
"You pretend to be a man of five or six in a day, repair books, pay homage to officials, and dress yourself up as a sage. Have you asked the people who have been deprived of their livelihood by you, whether they are convinced?"
Li Kuan turned around and hugged Li Ke, who was watching the excitement. He shook his head and sighed: "Fourth brother, you are going too far. Do you know how the common people scolded the imperial court? You!"
Bah, bah! After spitting out two molars, Li Tai collapsed on the ground, pushed away Princess Yan who came to support him, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and sneered back: "Second brother, yes, I did it all.
. But so what?"
It's just a face-saving job, just to look good and flatter the emperor. What's wrong? Is it as serious as Li Kuan said?
On the other hand, he doesn’t stick to trivial matters when it comes to big things, as long as his political ambitions can be realized, he can make amends no matter how hard he wants, he will never come back!
Today, Li Ke is also here, and he has broken his skin again. Li Tai feels that there is no need to pretend. They are all princes, who is not eyeing that position? Third child, doesn’t he want to?
"I'm also telling you, second brother, among all the brothers, you are the only fool!"
"You say I am ambitious, ask the third child, does he not want to?"
"If you want to save your life, get away. If it ruins my future, don't blame me for not looking after my mother!"
Okay! Okay! Li Tai's words successfully made Li Kuan laugh. That's right, Li Chengqian is lame, and the fat man no longer needs to cover up his ambition.
Li Kuan nodded his head and replied coldly: "Fourth, in my eyes, you will always be a bedwetter."
"If you have the skills, just come over here. Second brother is waiting." After speaking, Li Kuan snorted heavily, turned around and left.
Chapter completed!
