If it were someone else, even if Liu Bai left, he would have to find a few people to stay behind in order to prevent the opponent from making moves.

But the person opposite was Liu Zhenghui, who was notoriously smelly and tough.

He definitely can't do such things as hands and feet.

Therefore, when the five-day period expired, Li Er couldn't help being shocked when he brought his group of officials outside Jingyang County.

I saw that Liu Bai was wearing a neat moon-white gown, personable and handsome.

Li Daliang was dressed in a purple robe and held a wat board, showing the air of an important minister.

On the other hand, Liu Zhenghui is much more miserable.

At this moment, his hair was disheveled, his face was covered with dust, and his eyes were still covered with gum. If he didn't know anyone, he might think that he was just dug out of the pit.

From a long distance, you can smell the sour smell on his body.

Li Er had an expression of seeing a ghost, and asked with concern: "Liu Qing, what are you?"

Liu Zhenghui sniffled, as if he wanted to cry, but held back.

"The old minister and the old minister are fortunate to live up to their fate. In five days, they built an arrow tower that can be preserved for a hundred years!"

In the past few days, he really suffered a lot.

Especially in the last few days, after discovering that the arrow tower built by Liu Bai was abnormally strong, he was even more anxious.

In order to catch up with the work, he even went into battle himself and worked with the craftsmen.

A dignified veteran and important official has come to such an end.

If he loses to Liu Bai and Li Daliang again, he will probably commit suicide

"Your loyalty is commendable. After returning to Chang'an, I will definitely reward you!"

Li Er felt sorry for Liu Zhenghui.

He knew Liu Bai's abilities better than anyone else, so he knew long ago that for Liu Zhenghui, this was a gamble that he would lose.

Li Er would just laugh and watch when others offered [-] guan silver, but Liu Zhenghui, like Wei Zheng, had an old-fashioned personality and stuck to the rules.

He never collected money from his own family.

If he really paid the ten thousand pennies, he might even have to sell his ancestral house.

But at the same time, he didn't want to spoil the gamble. No matter from which point of view, this was something in his favor.

It's a big deal, just give Liu Zhenghui the money to make up for it in the future.

Liu Zhenghui was so grateful, he sniffled and bowed slowly.

"Old minister, thank you for your majesty's grace."

Li Er looked at Liu Bai again, unconsciously showing a three-point smile in his eyes.

This young man seemed to be holding a wisdom pearl at any time, as if nothing could escape his eyes.

"If the effect of cement is as he said, it is another great contribution."

Li Er sighed in his heart.

He felt more and more indebted to Liu Bai.

Up to now, Liu Bai has solved many big troubles for him.

But Liu Bai hadn't entered Chang'an after all, so he couldn't give rewards justifiably.

Li Er didn't say anything else, just patted Liu Bai on the shoulder.

As everyone knows, such a move, in the eyes of civil and military officials, changed the taste.

Li Er's attitude towards Liu Bai seemed to become closer.

It's not like the relationship between a monarch and his ministers at all, but more like a family member!

Liu Bai smiled lightly and didn't say much.

Li Er was about to turn around and retreat.

Suddenly, beside Liu Bai, besides Li Daliang, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a green official robe.

"You are"

Li Er frowned slightly.

According to the etiquette system of the Tang Dynasty, officials of the third rank and above are eligible to wear purple official robes, and officials of the fourth and fifth ranks wear scarlet official robes.

The person in front of him was wearing a green official robe, which showed that he was a junior official of the sixth or seventh rank.

You know, above his court, the lowest is a fifth rank official.

Where did a small official of the sixth or seventh rank come from?

It was the first time that he was so close to His Majesty, and Han Tong was shaking with excitement.

Seeing Li Er looking at him, he knelt on the ground without saying a word.

"Chen, Han Tong, magistrate of Jingyang County, pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

Li Er's face turned pale.

In recent days, the name of Jingyang County appeared in his memorials almost every day, and the name of the county magistrate Han Tong was also mentioned by chance.

"So you are Han Tong!"

Han Tong prostrated himself on the ground, swallowing his saliva nervously.

"It's Weichen!"

Li Daliang said in a timely manner: "Your Majesty, the construction of the arrow tower is for the sake of the city defense of Jingyang County. The county magistrate Han specially ordered people to cook and cook for us to build the arrow tower to provide convenience!

Li Er heard the words and nodded.

Looking at Han Tong's eyes, there is also a little more appreciation.

"No wonder Li Aiqing recommended you as a member of the Ministry of Industry, it seems that you are also a caring person."

He pondered for a while, and said again: "I have never been stingy with rewards. I have also heard about your affairs in Jingyang, so I will grant you the position of Doctor Chaosan as an encouragement!"

Han Tong was stunned for a moment, and then, an uncontrollable ecstasy surged from the bottom of his heart.

He was originally the county magistrate of Qipin, but he followed Li Daliang's footsteps and became a member of the Ministry of Industry from Liupin Wailang.

He was already very satisfied after being promoted by half a level.

As for Dr. Chao San, although he is a Wen San official, he is from the fifth rank!

You know, the fifth and sixth grades are a watershed.

Below the sixth rank, they can only be regarded as low-level officials, while above the fifth rank, they are middle-level officials.

The foot has entered the court!

After he had the position of essay official, he had the opportunity to become a middle-level official.

Another promotion is a sure thing!

You know, he is a Chaosan doctor, but His Majesty has sealed him with a golden speech, who will affect his future?

Han Tong was too excited.

It took only a few days to join Liu Bai's family, and he was promoted to a whole level. This is a step that ordinary officials may not be able to surpass in ten years!

So what is his future?

Han Tong didn't dare to think about it.

Now he is very fortunate that he chose to break up with Zhangsun Wuji.

If it weren't for this, I'm afraid he is still struggling in the county government office in Jingyang, with no hope of getting ahead.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I am willing to do my best for Tang Dynasty!"

Li Er nodded slightly and walked back.

He appointed Han Tong as Chaosan doctor, not necessarily without the intention of repaying Liu Bai.

Since it is impossible to reward Liu Bai, at least reward the people around him, so that Li Er can feel a little more at ease.

Li Er went to sit on the soft chair he had prepared long ago, and following his order, two hundred Jinwu guards stepped forward.

There are one hundred each, surrounded by two arrow towers.

They are armed with various weapons and are ready to fight.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened.

Win or lose, we will see the outcome soon.

Liu Zhenghui rubbed his hands back and forth, licking his lips vigorously, stretching his neck long.

"God bless, we must win!"

Chapter 130: Most importantly, the price is nearly a hundred times lower

The soldiers of the Jinwu Guard are all top picks from various armies!

It can be said that in the entire Tang Dynasty, apart from the Xuanjia Army led by Li Er, the Jinwu Guard was the most elite army.

Therefore, the equipment of the Jinwu Guard is also the most sophisticated.

The two hundred soldiers were all wearing golden armor, and those who dangled in the sun couldn't open their eyes. The Tang sword at the waist, the horse spear on the back, and the flail hanging on the belt all showed the horror of this army.

Li Er gave another order, and the two hundred soldiers drew out their Tang sabers in unison!

Kaka-

There was a tooth-piercing sound.

Liu Zhenghui's eyes were staring like two copper bells, and the beard on his chin was raised.

All the officials also stretched their necks to look around.

Everyone's hearts were raised in their throats.

Seeing their appearance, Liu Bai couldn't help shaking his head secretly.

“What a bunch of ignorant people”

Even if it is an arrow tower made of paper, how could it be destroyed by a few knives?

Sure enough, Tang Dao only left a shallow trace on the arrow tower.

Li Er, the notary, said with a smile, "This first game is evenly divided."

After speaking, he waved again.

The soldiers of the Jinwu Guard unanimously sheathed the Tang sabers, and pulled out the flails from the belts around their waists!

The so-called flail is a chain hammer, but the hammer head is full of ferocious spikes.

On the battlefield, once the flail goes down, no matter how strong a person is, he will be smashed into a pulp!

dong dong dong-

The flail hit the arrow tower like it hit the hearts of all the officials.

They may not care about the money they are pressing, but they cannot but care about face.

Liu Zhenghui's face suddenly turned pale.

Where he stood was the closest to the arrow tower.

At the moment when the flail fell, he suddenly discovered that there was a crack on the arrow tower he built!

He is proficient in architecture, so he knows what this means!

The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in an ant's nest. Since there are cracks on it, it means that the foundation has been damaged. It won't be long before the arrow tower will collapse!

His body swayed a few times, only to feel dizzy for a while.

"Is this old man really going to lose to a yellow-mouthed kid?"

Everyone knew that although the two parties in this bet were Li Daliang and Liu Zhenghui on the surface, in fact, Li Daliang was Liu Bai's mouth.

Liu Zhenghui looked at Liu Bai subconsciously, and when his eyes inadvertently swept across the concrete arrow tower, he was taken aback for a second.
