Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

Liu Bai stared, and said: "Then you go and kill Hou Shi!"

Li Chengqian shrank his neck subconsciously, and said bitterly: "I am also a prince after all, if it gets out, I will lose all face."

"You little brat, what face do you want?"

The next day, the Tai Chi Hall of the Imperial Palace!

Today was not the day to go to court, but due to the incident of Hou Junji, all the officials had to wait outside the Tai Chi Hall early in the morning.

What is right and what is wrong must go through court discussion before a final decision can be made.

Han Tong, the new member of the Ministry of Industry, was originally not qualified to go to court, but according to Hou Hu's pleadings, Han Tong was the second 'murderer', so naturally he had to confront him in court.

Yu Shinan walked in front, and Han Tong followed him in a small step, looking very respectful.

But Yu Shinan wished he could kick this guy to death!

He regretted a little, and agreed to Liu Bai to teach in the academy.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have received such a big trouble!

"When your Majesty asks later, you will kill this matter, it has nothing to do with you!"

Han Tong nodded repeatedly, and said, "Lord Yu, don't worry, Hou Junji is now in a secret prison, even the officials in Jingyang County don't know where he is!"

Yu Shinan sighed, and said: "It's a day to hide it. Your Majesty will know sooner or later. All we can do is delay and give Liu Bai time to figure out a solution."

Until now, he still doesn't know why Liu Bai attacked Hou Junji.

I asked Han Tong several times, but Han Tong said he didn't know.

It's a pity that I am also a person who is kept in the dark, but I still have to protect Han Tong.

What is this called?

He said bitterly: "When Liu Bai dealt with the Cui family back then, his methods were so clever, but how did he become so simple and rude when he came to Hou Junji? He is really crazy!"

Han Tong said with a smile: "I'm a humble official, and I don't know what Mr. Liu is planning."

Yu Shinan glared at him.

Liar!

If you don't know, you will easily beat the Duke?

He still wanted to complain a few words, but the eunuch in front of the main hall suddenly announced loudly: "All officials see you!"

Yu Shinan had no choice but to shut up, and walked into the hall with his head down.

"See Your Majesty!"

All the officials saluted, each with different expressions.

They are all the best among the best of the best, of course they are clear that the matter has nothing to do with their own high-spirited truth.

Hou Junji is proud of his talents, so he was not favored by others.

Even if he was unlucky this time, no one would come forward to help him.

Li Er waved his hand and said, "Everyone is in peace!"

He didn't say anything else, and directly asked Huai En to bring Hou Junji's third son, Hou Hu, into the hall.

Same as last time, Hou Hu cried for a while, and then kowtowed his head with a 'bang bang' sound.

"I beg Your Majesty to uphold justice!"

Li Er said with a blank face: "Where is Han Tong, a member of the Ministry of Industry?"

Standing in the rank of civil servants, Han Tong, the last one, trotted to the center of the hall.

"Wei Chen, Han Tong, a member of the Ministry of Industry, see Your Majesty!"

Without waiting for him to kneel, Li Er said directly: "You have heard what Hou Hu said, it's time to give an explanation to Zhen and all the lovers!"

Han Tong had been prepared for a long time, he chuckled and said, "Your Majesty Qi Zuo, what Hou Hu said is true or false!"

Li Eryi raised his eyebrows, "What's the meaning of this?"

Han Tong said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, General Hou went to Liujiazhuangzi to pay a visit to Mr. Liu Bailiu, but suddenly lost his mind on the way and injured his eldest son Hou Ying and his personal guard Hou Wu. I am worried about the safety of General Hou, so I have no choice but to subdue him!"

Hou Hu jumped up, pointed at Han Tong angrily, and said, "You're lying!"

Han Tong ignored him, and said to himself: "I did order the servants to take care of General Hou, but later, General Hou left on his own. As for the detention, it is purely nonsense!"

Chapter 143: The collective is acting, Li Er is Li Er after all

Han Tong looked sincere and spoke loudly.

Civil and military officials all felt that what he said was reasonable.

No matter how capable Liu Bai is, his official position is only a fifth-rank court official, and he is still a casual official, so how could he offend a duke for no reason?

Wailang, a member of the sixth grade in Han Tong District, is even less courageous.

Looking at Hou Hu's appearance, it is clear that he is wronging a good person!

If Hou Junji was really imprisoned in Jingyang County Prison, would he still appear here?

He had already brought someone into the Jingyang County Prison and rescued Hou Junji!

As for Hou Jun's gains and losses at the rally, he was insane

It's not impossible!

If it were someone else, Li Er would have gone crazy for two years

Only Fang Xuanling and the others, who knew some inside information, were full of black lines.

In the future, you must stay away from Han Tong. This guy's lies can come out as soon as you open your mouth, and you don't need to draft them.

But he spoke very sincerely, without any flaws.

Li Er took a deep look at Han Tong, and said, "What Han Qing said makes sense, come here!"

The two Jinwu guards stepped into the hall together.

"Jin Wuwei, together with the Imperial City Secretary, quickly dispatched people to search for Hou Junji's whereabouts within a hundred li radius!"

"Here!"

The atmosphere suddenly became very good and harmonious.

It seems that this storm is over.

Hou Hu stood there blankly, and waited for the two Jinwu guards to leave before he said in surprise: "My father is locked in the prison in Jingyang County, why send someone to look for it?!"

Han Tong's complexion changed, and he scolded: "Bold! How dare you disobey His Majesty's will?!"

The officials also looked at Hou Hu with unfriendly expressions.

Hou Hu shrank his neck in fright, and quickly knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty doesn't mean that, please forgive me!"

Li Er waved his hand and said: "I understand your Hou family's difficulties, if I know Hou Qing's whereabouts, I will send someone to tell you as soon as possible!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"Your Majesty is sympathetic to the ministers, and the ministers are so grateful!"

""

Hundreds of civil and military officials defended him repeatedly, and there was no one who spoke for Hou Junji.

Over the years, Hou Jun has set his sights higher than the top and offended many people. It is very kind of the ministers not to add insult to injury.

Hou Hu knelt on the ground with his head down, his body trembling non-stop.

Half scared, half angry.

Is this the end?

They never expected that not only were Han Tong and Liu Bai not punished, but no one cared about their father's life or death!

It's clearly in the prison in Jingyang County, and you still have to send someone to look for it?

I am afraid that after searching for 100 years, there is no trace of it!

But he didn't dare to speak any more, just like what Han Tong said, wouldn't it be disobedient to His Majesty to continue arguing?

Just as Wynn announced his retirement, all civil and military officials ran away, faster than rabbits.

Hou Hu, who was just about to ask someone to intercede, raised his head and suddenly found that the hall was empty in such a short period of time!

Only Wynn, standing by the dragon chair, looked at him expressionlessly.

Hou Hu hurriedly showed a flattering expression.

"Eunuch Wynn"

Wynn took out an imperial edict from his cuff.

"His Majesty said"

Hou Hu, whose knee was barely off the ground, quickly knelt down again.

"Lu Guogong, the third son of Hou Junji, the general of the right guard, Hou Hu, who understands filial piety and understands the general situation, I specially appointed Hou Hu as the deputy lieutenant of Zhaowu, and he was appointed as the son of Boyang County!"

After finishing speaking, Wynn walked down, handed over the imperial decree to the dumbfounded Hou Hu, and walked out in a stroll.

Hou Hu held the imperial decree in both hands, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.

It would definitely be a great joy to be conferred the title of Viscount by His Majesty at any other time.

But being conferred at the stall where Hou Junji disappeared, no matter how you look at it, it seems to be comforting

Could it be that even His Majesty thinks that his father is dead?

"impossible, impossible"

Hou Hu murmured.

No one knew what Li Er was planning.

It is really intriguing to confer Hou Hu a knighthood at this time.

For two days in a row, there was no news from the deep palace.

Those who went to look for Hou Junji's Jinwu Guard and Huangcheng Division did not get any clues.

But in the past two days, the gangs in Chang'an City and even some surrounding counties were wiped out by these people!

When the heads of several gang leaders were hung on the gate of Chang'an, Hou Hu panicked completely.

He knew all of these people!

As Hou Junji is the big backer of these gangs, these people naturally come and go to Hou's house from time to time.

There are a few of them who even have a good relationship with Hou Hu!

Even the most stupid person can understand what's going on!

It's not that Li Er can't see that Hou Junji is making small moves in private, but because Hou Junji has credited him, Li Er has been tolerating it.

He wants to tell the world that he is not a heartless and ungrateful emperor. On the contrary, as long as his bottom line is not touched, meritorious officials will not be punished for no reason.

And Hou Junji's 'disappearance' incident is tantamount to giving Li Er a chance to eradicate Hou Junji's henchmen!

Finding Hou Junji is a lie, but eradicating the gang is the truth!

It was only when Hou Hu saw the heads on the city gate that he realized that the Hou family had fallen into a desperate situation!

And Liu Bai, who got the news almost at the same time, was also slightly taken aback.

"Li Er, it is Li Er after all"

Sitting under the wintersweet tree in the yard, drinking tea, Liu Bai couldn't help admiring secretly.

Li Er's various actions showed that he was not ignorant of Hou Junji's ambiguity, but because of the public opinion of the people in the world, he endured it until now.

Maybe, he has long been thinking about how to kill Hou Junji.

Liu Bai shook the teacup lightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Now that Li Er had the same plan, things became much easier.
