Every time I wake up, I take the blame for the villain

He stood in the crowd and looked at the portrait of Li Chengen, feeling a little surprised.

After Li Chengengui became the general of Tiance and the founding hero of the country, he was deeply trusted by Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty at all times.

Historical records show that during the Anshi Rebellion, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty never thought of abandoning him. During times of war and chaos, Li Chengen was even asked to stay by his side to prevent him from encountering any unexpected events.

Such deep friendship led Li Longji to order his death.

Tiance had fought against the Evil Man Valley before and suffered many casualties. He had never seen what Li Longji wanted to do to Li Chengen. Now that they had succeeded in encircling Guangming Temple, why did such a change happen at this time?

Jiang Chen was also puzzled.

It would be nonsense to say that Li Chengen had contact with the Valley of Evil People. They were still at odds with each other in the Daguangming Temple. Even though Xiao Sha later went to the Tiance dungeon alone, only a few people who were involved in the incident at the Guangming Temple knew about it. Li Chengen's rule is very strict, and the Tiance Mansion is quite prestigious, but the news will be leaked?

Jiang Chen looked at the notice, and clasped two buttons with his crossed fingers hidden under his wide sleeves, his expression calm and unruffled. But he didn't realize that it was because of his impromptu decision that he deceived Li Chengen and Xie Yuan.

When he turned around, a faint smile suddenly appeared on his lips.

Maybe, another child has to go into the valley.

Jiang Chen was not the only one who was surprised. The government and the public were shocked when the news came out that Li Chengen was captured and executed later in the autumn.

Especially Tiance Mansion.

The general of the auxiliary country. How could he betray the dynasty?

The Valley of the Wicked and Tiance are mortal enemies. How could the general collude with the Valley of the Wicked?

On the first day after the news came out, the people in Tiance Mansion were furious and rushed to Daming Palace one after another to plead for mercy.

Until Li Longji said something, you and other generals are arrogant here. Could it be that they want to force the palace to rebel? !

After saying this, the generals who entered turned pale and had to withdraw.

Also in the early morning court, Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling, Minister Han Xiu, General Li Shiji and others jointly submitted a letter asking the Holy One to withdraw his order. They tried their best to say that Li Chengen was loyal to the Tang Dynasty and was definitely not a person who betrayed the light and turned against the dark.

Zhang Jiuling said, "Your Majesty, General Li has been in charge of Tiance for nearly ten years, and he has never made any mistakes abroad. The last time he failed was only because of the many mechanisms in the Valley of Evil. The annihilation of Daguangming Temple a few days ago has already made up for it. The general is The country is for the people, and they are loyal to the Tang Dynasty. General Tiance has always advanced and retreated with the Tang Dynasty, especially the general. How could such an upright person do anything to collude with the evil man Valley?" He looked at Li Linfu coldly. , raised his voice and said in a deep voice, "This is clearly someone's malicious frame-up based on groundless lies!"

Li Linfu was wearing a beige official robe, court boots, and a gauze hat on his head. He was in high spirits. It seemed that the spring breeze had made his horse hoofy in the past few days. He glanced at Xia Ziqian from the corner of his eyes and knew better. He immediately stood up and refuted, " What does Prime Minister Zhang mean by this? That is irrefutable evidence that Li Chengen collaborated with the enemy and committed treason.”

Zhang Jiuling's face darkened as she thought of the young general Li Linfu had captured from Tiance who insisted that Li Chengen had brought people from the Valley of Evil into Tiance Mansion. This guy was obviously instigated by someone and framed Li Chengen through coercion and inducement!

Your Majesty has always had great trust in the generals, why can't he even listen to their words at this time!

He didn't want to get involved with Li Linfu, so he turned around and said to Li Longji, "Your Majesty, General Li is the mainstay of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty cannot lose the general! Your Majesty is wise, please don't listen to the slander. At least, you should give The general's excuse cannot be so arbitrary, and he should be sentenced to death before he has seen the general himself. Your Majesty, please take back what I said from the bottom of my heart..."

Li Shiji also came out and spoke sincerely, "Your Majesty, what the Prime Minister said is exactly what I mean. Li Cheng'en has been mastering the strategy for nearly ten years. He is cautious in his words and deeds. He is at the forefront in wars and dedicates himself to the Tang Dynasty all the time. After his death, he only used Tiance repeatedly to solve the hidden worries of the Tang Dynasty. Your Majesty, Li Chengen is very loyal, please take back his life!"

When Zhang Jiuling and Li Shiji spoke out, Pei Yaoqing and other officials who wanted to protect Li Chengen all stood up and said in unison, "Your Majesty, please take back your life..."

However, Li Longji seemed to have steeled his mind after eating a weight, and had no intention of taking back his will. He listened to all Zhang Jiuling and Li Shiji's words in one ear and out the other.

When Gao Lishi announced in a loud voice that nothing happened and he left the court, and when Li Longji left the dragon throne, the courtiers in the hall became even more confused.

In my ears, "I never thought that as a great general, Li Chengen would also rebel!"

"When did Li Chengen come to the Valley of the Wicked?"

"You still have to ask! It must have been the encirclement and suppression two years ago. It was a cover for contact with the Valley of the Evil..."

"Yes, otherwise how could Tiance's 30,000 soldiers not be able to eliminate a mere group of bandits..."

Zhang Jiuling had a headache and felt angry again.

Everyone doubts the loyalty of the general. If even someone in the Tiance Army, the defense line of the Tang Dynasty, rebels, there are still people in the world who will protect the country of the Tang Dynasty...

He glanced across the hall, and everyone in the court unconsciously lowered their voices. In the end, there was total silence... everyone froze their hands and feet and retreated...

Zhang Jiuling turned to glare at Li Linfu, barely maintaining his usual demeanor.

Li Linfu touched his face, as if he didn't feel his anger, and said with a smile, "Why should Prime Minister Zhang treat me like this? What I said is the truth, isn't it?"

Zhang Jiuling's face was livid, he snorted coldly and walked away.

It's really too arrogant!

In the 21st year of Kaiyuan last year, Li Linfu was promoted to Huangmen Shilang, and Pei Yaoqing, the former Huangmen Shilang, was promoted to Huangmen Supervisor Left Prime Minister.

Speaking of Pei Yaoqing, he is also a great talent. In the past, Zhang Jiuling had not yet been promoted to the right prime minister, and when he was working as a plotter with the former prime minister Zhang Shui, the two people had already interacted with each other.

Both of them are honest and talented people, and they appreciate each other very much. Since Zhang Jiuling became the Prime Minister on the right and Pei Yaoqing became the Prime Minister on the Left, the two have been interacting more closely. They are in the same dynasty and have a tacit understanding with each other.

Li Linfu has been promoted repeatedly in the past year, and even became the Huangmen Supervisor, ousting Pei Yaoqing, the former Huangmen Provincial Attendant.

Pei Yaoqing and Zhang Jiuling had always been on good terms, but Li Linfu felt unsure about what he did this time. After being promoted, he always believed that Zhang Jiuling, the right prime minister, would give him little shoes, so he always clashed with Zhang Jiuling.

Little did he know that Zhang Jiuling had no intention of arguing with him. He always believed that if His Majesty transferred Pei Huanzhi to support Li Linfu, it could only mean that Huanzhi's ability was not enough. As long as it was all for the Tang Dynasty, the position of prime minister would only be occupied by the capable. If Li Linfu could rule the country and bring peace to the world by himself, then why not squeeze out Huanzhi, even if it was Zhang Jiuling who was squeezed out.

It's a pity that Li Linfu, who squeezed out Pei Huanzhi, is always clever and has no great talent. He only knows how to figure out the holy will and flatter others...

The talented Pei Huanzhi was pulled down, but he was replaced by a bottle of flattery, jealousy and jealousy. Zhang Jiuling has always been an upright person, and he can't tolerate any sand in his eyes. He even speaks out about the emperor's mistakes and is fair and upright. How could such a person treat Li Linfu favorably?

What's more, there is one thing about Li Linfu that makes Zhang Jiuling very angry. He is too afraid of talented people. As it happens, Zhang Jiuling appoints people based on their talents.

The two people's thoughts were extremely inconsistent, causing each other to despise the other.

Zhang Jiuling thought that Li Linfu was treacherous, cunning, flattering, jealous of talents, while Li Linfu thought that Zhang Jiuling had a stubborn head and was pretending to be aloof.

The last time Zhang Jiuling made a speech, he severely criticized Li Linfu's cleverness, and sharply raised Li Linfu's biggest problem, which was jealousy of talents and talents. He said that there were many talented people in the government and the public, and he wanted to recommend them to His Majesty, but was repeatedly blocked by Li Linfu.

"Your Majesty, Lin Fu has no talent or virtue, he is jealous of talents, he is also good at smooth talk, and he talks sweetly and has a sword! Your Majesty promoted this man to the position of prime minister... it is... it is really biased!"

He repeatedly warned, "The Prime Minister is concerned about the security of the country. Your Majesty is Prime Minister Lin Fu. I am afraid that in the future, I will be worried about the temple."

That day, it was the first time that Li Longji saw Zhang Jiuling, who was the most etiquette among the ministers, criticizing someone without any grace, and even did the disrespectful thing of just naming someone without his last name. He stayed there for a long time. When Zhang Jiuling finished his long speech, he said awkwardly, "I have remembered what Aiqing said."

As a result, not even two days later, His Majesty also gave many royal gifts to Li Linfu, who had been confined and thought about his past.

Zhang Jiuling was speechless when he heard the news.

Li Linfu naturally knew that the culprit who "caused" him to be grounded for three days was Zhang Jiuling...

Naturally, these two people were even more disgusted with each other.

The left and right sides could not share the same goal, which caused the court to be divided into two factions.

One is the right faction headed by Right Prime Minister Zhang Jiuling and Minister Pei Yaoqing, and the other is the left faction represented by Left Prime Minister Li Linfu and Jingzhao Palace Protector Cao Yuanmao.

As for Xia Ziqian, who is currently the most favored by Li Longji, he was originally a member of Zhang Jiuling's sect. Zhang Jiuling admired his literary talent very much and even intended to betroth his daughter Zhang Shiwanyu to this person, but he didn't know what went wrong. . Xia Ziqian suddenly changed from normal and stopped contacting Zhang Jiuling.

I heard that Zhang Jiuling hosted a banquet for Taifu Xia Ziqian that day, and Jiu Linggong praised Xia Ziqian. When Xia Taifu saw the fifteen-year-old girl for the first time, she was like a pure jade, and he became inspired by poetry. He chanted to a pot of narcissus beside him, "...It blooms by borrowing water, but it sinks into bones and jade into flesh. The dark fragrance has already weighed down the tea leaves, which are no better than the cold plum blossoms."

It seemed like he was just talking, but everyone here was sharp-minded and knew that he was praising this beautiful lady. Xia Ziqian was quite yearning for this marriage.

Pei Ran, Zhang Jiuling's literary talent, listened to him finish reciting, and suddenly felt that this person was really all-rounder, and praised, "It seems that Xia Changshi is not very old and has a lot of experience. It is really touching. A hero really comes from a young age."

Xia Ziqian was stunned for a moment, still not understanding what Zhang Jiuling's sudden praise of rich experience was referring to.

Zhang Jiuling smiled and said, "If you have not been a general, how can you write about the magnificence of the frontier? If you have not experienced the world, how can you be so sensible? If you have not experienced the suffering of the world, how can you regard the suffering of the people as if it were your own body? The talent of always serving, the emotion , which makes Zhang admire..."

Xia Ziqian's face became unnatural, and he forced a smile and replied, "What a compliment! The prime minister is so complimentary..."

There were a lot of things going on that day, and the wine lady didn't check, and fake wine was mixed in. Jiu Linggong was embarrassed and criticized the restaurant for deceiving others by talking about Han Feizi's allusions to the Spring and Autumn Period.

After Xia Ziqian left the banquet and returned home, he never set foot in Zhang Mansion again.

Zhang Jiuling was puzzled by this.

Unconsciously, he discovered that Xia Ziqian never came closer to him.

One day he even wanted to ask why, but Xia Ziqian avoided him...

As time went by, the relationship between the two of them became inexplicable.

…

The court was already in such confusion for Li Chengen, let alone himself.

On a remote path in the deep forest.

Xie Yuan held the horse with a solemn expression.

The same is true for Li Chengen.

The two walked for a while, and Li Chengen suddenly stopped.

Xie Yuan turned his head, a little confused.

Li Chengen suddenly raised his head and said solemnly, "No! You can't just walk away like this!"

Xie Yuan: ? ? ?

Li Chengen said, "How can a general of Tiance escape like this! Your Majesty was clearly deceived by the traitors, so he easily convicted me of a crime. I will go back and explain it to Your Majesty!"

Xie Yuan loosened his horse's stiffness, grabbed him, and analyzed calmly, "Brother Li, do you think you can still see His Majesty under someone's secret manipulation? I'm afraid that you are a sheep in the tiger's mouth. Before you enter the capital, you will be taken away by the villain and thrown into prison to be executed!"

Li Chengen said angrily, "Even if I die, Li Chengen can never live with such a stigma!"

Xie Yuan sighed, "How can death solve the problem!"

He said soberly, "If Brother Li Being executed in this way, wouldn't it be exactly what those filthy villains want? By then, you won't be around anymore, so they can make up whatever they want! Your death will not only fail to prove your innocence, but may make the enemy more arrogant and unscrupulously discredit Brother Li's name. Now even Brother Li has been framed, you can imagine what the court has become! Your Majesty must have been surrounded by treacherous villains and can't stand the unpleasant truth. "

Li Chengen is good at scheming and understands the situation in the court. Of course, he knows the dangerous situation he is facing now. What he said just now was just a momentary anger. He has been forced into a desperate situation and has no choice, so he said such a bullshit method.

He thought of Jiang Chen, and his heart was depressed. If this man hadn't suddenly suggested handing Xiao Sha over to Tiance Mansion and was too lazy to take Xiao Sha to the Evil Valley, would he, Li Chengen, have been so unlucky? I thought the other party was cooperating with the government and wanted to abide by the law for once, but he really made a big mess when he came in.

Li Chengen suddenly took a breath of cold air, and a light flashed in his mind. Could it be that he did it on purpose?

He punched a tree as thick as his arm beside him, and the tree fell down with a click.

Xie Yuan:?

"Brother Li..."

Li Chengen said hatefully, "Could it be that Wang Yifeng did this on purpose?"

Xie Yuan: "..."

"In Xie's opinion, he is not such a person."

Li Chengen was stunned when he saw him say this, and looked at him with suspicion, "Are you the same as Qin Yiyan?"

Xie Yuan: "?"

Li Chengen was heartbroken when he thought of Qin Yiyan. At this moment, he still recalled, "After returning from the Valley of Evil two years ago, he admired Wang Yifeng to the extreme and praised him very much. He also threatened that if he was not born as Tiance and his position was not determined, he would follow Wang Yifeng."

"But now..." He has become such a monster...

Painless and insensitive.

I don't know, how is Chang'an now?

Is His Majesty safe?

Even so, he can only go to the Valley of Evil to find Wang Yifeng. Wang Yifeng knows so much about this monster, he has to ask the whole story first. Qin Yiyan finally rushed to Tiance Mansion to ask him to find Wang Yifeng, and mentioned Xia Ziqian and Li Linfu, which must have a purpose.

Li Chengen had no choice but to try his best.

The author has something to say: Li Ju (crying violently): What can I do... I am helpless too...
