"Your Highness, Jia Xu brought it here."

After waiting in the Prince's Mansion for three days, Luo Song returned to Fan Yang with his men, beside him was a middle-aged scribe who was bound all over and gagged.

"What's going on? Why do you neglect Mr. Jia so much?"

Li Wenhao untied Jia Xu himself, took off the rag from his mouth, and asked with a reproachful face.

In fact, he was asking the question knowingly. If Jia Xu hadn't been blocked, Li Wenhao's reputation would have been ruined by Jia Xu on the road from Taiyuan to Fanyang.

"I will be convicted at the end!"

"Go down, each of you will receive twenty army sticks!"

Li Wenhao blinked, Luo Song nodded, everything was in his eyes.

After a while, Luo Song's wailing and the sound of Dabanzi beating people came out, but if Jia Xu was beside him, he might be pissed off.

Luo Song was holding tea in one hand and knocking melon seeds in the other. A piece of pork was placed on the stool in front of him, and two soldiers were beating the piece of pork vigorously.

"Beat for a while, break up the meat, and eat stuffing at night"

……

In the main hall of the Prince's Mansion, Li Wenhao untied Jia Xu, helped him to his seat, and handed him tea.

"Mr. Jia is a great talent. Master Ziyang has already mentioned it in this palace. I wonder if Mr. Jia is willing to serve in the East Palace?"

"what?"

Jia Xu was taken aback, this Li Wenhao didn't follow the routine.

Shouldn't he ask a few tricky questions in advance, then show off the knowledgeable demeanor of His Royal Highness, and finally open his mouth to solicit?

How come to Li Wenhao, all these procedures are free?

"I ask you, are you willing to serve in the East Palace and assist me?"

"Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is surrounded by foreign enemies and constant internal enemies, and there is a shortage of capable people like you."

Li Wenhao deliberately put the word capable person very seriously, and Jia Xu could hear it himself. Li Wenhao liked him for nothing but his viciousness who didn't care about other people's life or death, and he was also not bad for being vicious to the enemy and to his own people.

If Jia Xu is allowed to govern the country, he may not be able to really rule anything, but if Jia Xu is allowed to fight against these aristocratic families and play tricks, he may fall into Jia Xu's arms, which is why he can't wait to recruit Jia Xu.

"Your Highness..."

Li Wenhao interrupted Jia Xu with a wave of his hand, "Mr. Jia, needless to say, there are not many choices in front of you now, since I asked my subordinates to bring your whole family here, you can understand what I mean. "

"You don't have to worry about who I am, Li Wenhao. Naturally, I won't do things like crossing rivers and demolishing bridges. You and I are also smart people. It's nonsense to give you a gold medal to avoid death. That thing is a reminder."

"Just one word, follow me wholeheartedly. I can guarantee that as long as you don't betray or violate the law in the future, then your Jia family will live the same life as the dynasty."

"Mr. Jia, think about it!"

Li Wenhao walked back to his seat and waited for Jia Xu's next words. He believed that Jia Xu's brain could hear the meaning of his words.

If it cannot be owned by me, then the safest way is to kill it.

It's not that Li Wenhao is cruel, in order to prevent Jia Xu from being recruited by the family in the future, he can only do this.

"Chen, Jia Xu, pay homage to the prince!"

After being silent for half a cup of tea, Jia Xu tidied up her clothes and walked in front of Li Wenhao, kneeling down solemnly.

"Okay, I will appoint you as the counselor of the East Palace, and I will follow you around in the future."

Li Wenhao helped Jia Xu himself, and ordered someone to clean up the yard next to the Prince's Mansion to appease Jia Xu's family.

Jia Xu's family is not many, even very few, a standard family of three, Jia Xu, the eldest wife, and the concubine. According to him, he has a son who is currently studying in Jiangnan.

"Wenhe, since I entered my East Palace, I won't be polite to you anymore. Now all the aristocratic families in the world regard me as a thorn in the flesh, and vice versa. One of the aristocratic family and I must disappear completely. Now that you are here, how do we deal with this?" Shijia, it depends on you."

"Your Highness, I don't know this method..."

Glancing at Jia Xu, Li Wenhao nodded. This poisonous man really lived up to his reputation. If Jia Xu didn't ask, Li Wenhao would be worried. If he asked, Li Wenhao would feel relieved.

"Wenhe, you have to make sacrifices in everything you do, as long as the sacrifice is worth it!"

"You take a good rest, and come back to Chang'an with me in three days, then we will have a good fight with those aristocratic families!"

Patting Jia Xu on the shoulder, Li Wenhao turned and left. When the bowed Jia Xu raised his head, his face was full of smiles, without the slightest resentment of being pulled over by force.

He has learned literary and martial arts and sold them to the emperor's family. Is Jia Xu not knowledgeable, or is he not knowledgeable enough?

It's just that there is no way out.

At the beginning, he followed his big brother Zhai Rang, but later he found that Zhai Rang was not the master, especially when he repeatedly persuaded Zhai Rang to kill Li Mi, Zhai Rang was hesitant, and finally Li Mi turned back and lost Wagang. Been dead for years.

It's just that he saw Zhai Rang's point. When he left Zhai Rang, he didn't miss him at all.

As for voting for the Tang Dynasty, it's not that he hadn't thought about it, but the situation of Datang seizing the heir is so severe that he can't tell the outcome.

He didn't want to be the minister of the dragon, because throughout history, few ministers of the dragon who seized the throne had a good end, so he couldn't gamble with his life.

But joining Li Wenhao now is different. Anyone who is not a fool can see that Li Wenhao's position as the crown prince is unshakable, not only because of Li Shimin's trust, but because of the strength of Li Wenhao's subordinates.

If Li Shimin wants to abolish the prince, he must consider these elites under Li Wenhao's command.

A scheming person like Jia Xu is very dirty. He doesn't believe in trust or family affection. What he believes in most is strength, and Li Wenhao has this strength.

In the middle of the night, when Li Wenhao was fast asleep, there was a hasty knock on the door outside.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, Lu Wenzhao has an urgent matter to see you."

Li Wenhao opened the door with a heavy breath of getting up, "Damn, don't you know I'm still growing?"

Uh!
long body...

"Your Highness, this is the news that my subordinates found in Zhuo County."

"Nanliang Xiao, how dare they..."

Li Wenhao angrily threw the memorial in his hand out.

"Let Jia Xu, Zhang Juzheng, Luo Song, Li Cunxiao come to the meeting hall"

Li Wenhao turned around and went into the room to get dressed, hung Tai'a sword on his waist, and walked into the meeting hall with a long gun.

"Lu Wenzhao, tell me!"

"Here!"

"My lords, according to the news from my subordinates, not only did the Nanliang Xiao family not curb their style, but they even intensified it. Relying on their family's great fortune, they wantonly kidnapped children and women in Yanliao, Hebei, and other places, or sold them to brothels. or train as a slave"

"Not only that, but my subordinates also found out that they actually traded human skins and resold people. It is rumored that there were five thousand dead men they raised in Nanlanling Mausoleum. Even the county guards were ignored by them. Nanlanling Mausoleum is the territory of their Xiao family."

"My subordinates just stopped one of their cargo ships in Zhuo County. According to the exact information, there are at least 1000 women and children they abducted on board."

"Okay, stop talking about this, let me ask you a question, kill or not?"

Li Wenhao shouted angrily.
