Chapter 373: Who is the final winner 3 This made Kong Sheng realize that he had to strengthen his security work.
The so-called open guns are easy to dodge and dark arrows are difficult to prevent, and this kind of elusive Jianghu people will definitely capsize in the gutter if they are not careful.
Kong Sheng looked at Mu Changfeng.
Mu Changfeng nodded knowingly, he had already suggested to Kong Sheng that he should recruit some strange people from the rivers and lakes to be used by the Hou Mansion, and be on duty in shifts to protect Kong Sheng's travel, and what he guarded against was the means of the people of the rivers and lakes.
With Mu Changfeng's fame and his extensive travels, coupled with Kong Sheng's fame, it is not a problem for the Marquis of Chang'an to raise a few Jianghu people.
It turned out that Kong Sheng didn't take it too seriously, but now it seems that this is already a top priority.
Mu Changfeng immediately went down to make arrangements.
Kong Sheng took a deep breath and walked to the inner courtyard.
In front of the flower hall in the inner courtyard, Sima Chengzhen, who was like a fairy, stood in the wind with a smile, and beside him was the Taoist boy Atai with an excited face.
Kong Sheng's eyes flashed with a rare excitement, in this life, there are definitely not many people and things that can make him excited, Sima Chengzhen and Atai are one of them.
Sima Chengzhen can be called the key figure who changed the fate of his life.
If it weren't for a chance encounter with Sima Chengzhen in Jiangning City, he had to teach the Taoist Shangqing traditional inner family exercises, and repeatedly recommended it in front of Guo Ziyi, and through Guo Ziyi's hands, where would there be Kong Sheng's marquis today Alone, no matter how capable you are, it is useless if you don't have a chance.
Gold is buried in the earth, and it will always be dirt.
For Sima Chengzhen, Kong Sheng has always had a very sincere feeling of gratitude.
Kong Sheng stepped forward a few steps and bowed to the ground: "Kong Sheng greets his teacher" Sima Chengzhen smiled slightly, motioned to Atai to help Kong Sheng up, and said: "How can you be poor and poor, dare to let Chang'an, who is famous in Chang'an, pay a great salute to worship."
Kong Sheng said in a condensed voice: "The grace of the teacher's teaching and recommendation, Kong Sheng will remember it all his life.
A teacher for one day, a father for life, the master is here, Kong Sheng dares not to bow and worship" Sima Chengzhen stroked his beard and laughed: "Kong Sheng, you idiot and poor Dao really didn't misunderstand you, with your title today, you can not forget your original intention, it is precious."
The teacher has been in your Chang'an Hou Mansion for a few days, and it is also a destined fate for our master and apprentice to meet in Chang'an. ” Atai also grabbed Kong Sheng's arm with a smile, and said eagerly: "Senior Brother Kong, you have not been aggrieved in the prison of Dali Temple, I haven't seen you for many days, Senior Brother has always been good, Atai heard that you are very proud of Henan, and now you have come to Chang'an to be a carefree Chang'an, so I dragged the master to Chang'an to see you."
Kong Sheng laughed and hugged Ah Tai tightly.
When the three of them met, they exchanged pleasantries for a few minutes, and Sima Chengzhen mentioned Kong Sheng's self-brewed wine.
In the past two days, Sima Chengzhen has drunk such spirits in the Chang'an Hou Mansion, and he has already eaten the marrow.
Kong Sheng laughed and instructed Wu Xianwu to set up a banquet, and he wanted to get drunk with Sima Chengzhen and Atai.
But as soon as the banquet was served, Li Fuguo arrived.
Kong Sheng had to leave Sima Chengzhen's master and apprentice and go out of the hall to greet Li Fuguo.
Sima Chengzhen was not interested in eunuchs in the palace like Li Fuguo, so he naturally avoided it.
Li Fuguo smiled and said with concern: "Hearing that Chang'an Hou was assassinated, the miscellaneous family was very shocked, and hurried over, seeing that Chang'an Hou was safe and sound, the miscellaneous family was relieved." ” Kong Sheng smiled slightly and hugged his fists and said, "There is a concern of General Manager Lao Li" Li Fuguo was ordered by the emperor, and he did not dare to slack off, let alone delay, because the emperor was still waiting for Kong Sheng in the palace.
Outside the Lin De Palace, there were many courtiers led by Li Jiao, the king of Chu, waiting for the emperor to summon them.
"Chang'an, Your Majesty's dictation, pass you on to the palace as soon as possible" Kong Sheng was surprised: "The minister obeys the order of Chief Manager Li, His Majesty suddenly summoned me to the palace, is there anything wrong?"
Li Fuguo looked at Kong Sheng with burning eyes and said: "Chang'an Hou, the military report of Xiangzhou's defeat today has reached the palace, and Your Majesty is furious.
His Royal Highness the King of Chu led his ministers to ask His Majesty to summon him outside the Lin De Palace, but His Majesty closed the door and just ordered the miscellaneous family to come out of the palace to pass you into the palace. ” Kong Sheng was silent for a moment, and nodded slowly: "Please wait a while, Manager Li will change his clothes, and then he will enter the palace with the manager to see the driver."
Kong Sheng hurriedly changed into the official court clothes from Sanpin Chang'an, with neat crowns and belts, and did not bring a car, so he boarded Li Fuguo's carriage, and the two of them entered the palace in a car together.
Sima Chengzhen's master and apprentice continued to drink.
Ah Tai was a little uneasy, and said: "Master, the emperor suddenly summoned Senior Brother Kong into the palace, so he has to make things difficult for him."
Sima Chengzhen chuckled: "You little guy is really boring, drinking your wine is, taking care of so many idle things Kong Sheng is a courtier of the court, Chang'an waits, the emperor summoned him to the palace to discuss matters, isn't it a very normal situation, and now that Xiangzhou is defeated, it shakes the world, and the poor Dao estimates that the emperor is going to let Kong Sheng put on armor and go on the expedition." ” Speaking of which, Kong Sheng's performance was also unexpected by Poor Dao.
On that day, Poor Dao recommended him to Guo Ziyi as an official, but it was just to help him run a way out, and he originally thought that it would be common for him to get an official and a half-job in the future with his talent and learning.
Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a peerless genius who led the army to fight, in just one year, he turned the tide in Henan, invincible and invincible, and his ability to arrange the army was no less than Guo Ziyi, a famous general in the world, which impressed the poor road. ” Sima Chengzhen patted Atai's shoulder: "Drinking Kong Sheng's wine, it is really a golden dew, and some of it makes the poor Dao unhappy." ” Atai muttered: "What is this official to fight for, there will be no good end in the future."
Ah Tai saw that Senior Brother Kong was not a person who was greedy for wealth and nobility, so it was better to let him follow us into the mountains to cultivate, with a clear breeze and a bright moon, wouldn't it be happy?"
Sima Chengzhen chuckled: "Atai, Kong Sheng is not a person in my Tao after all, he is destined to be a marquis and worship the prime minister, okay, drink your wine, don't worry about these idle things, so you mess up your mood, and the gains outweigh the losses."
Sima Chengzhen stopped drinking, Atai's heart was awe-inspiring, and he hung his head silently.
Before entering the imperial city, Li Fuguo's carriage passed by a large and deep mansion, and judging by the scale regulation, it was obviously the home of dignitaries.
It's just that the door of this mansion is closed, the mansion is mourning, the white silk is hanging at the door, and there is a faint mourning sound from the inner mansion.
Kong Sheng moved slightly: "Whose mansion is this, why is it mourning?"
Li Fuguo smiled disapprerovitly: "This is the mansion of Li Siye, the envoy of the Duke of Yu Guo and the Beiting Festival, Li Siye was defeated and died, and the body is still on the way back to Chang'an, and it is reasonable for the family to treat the funeral." ” Kong Sheng sighed, "Li Siye is in a high position of the national prince, and he is a famous general in the world, Li Fu is mourning, why don't you see anyone to mourn?"
The corners of Li Fuguo's mouth twitched, and he said in his heart, are you pretending to be confused or asking knowingly "Chang'an waited, Xiangzhou was defeated, although Li Siye was killed in battle, but the court has not yet reached a conclusion on this, and naturally no one dares to come to mourn.
This Li Siye was like a city when he was alive, but after he died, he was so deserted, which shows that the world is cold and the people are cold and warm and cold, which is not enough for outsiders.

Li Fuguo sighed slightly.
Kong Sheng was silent for a moment, and suddenly raised his voice: "Stop, I want to go over the house to pay homage to General Li."
Li Fuguo was taken aback, frowned, and said: "Chang'an Hou, without His Majesty's edict, it is a little inappropriate for you to worship Li Siye without authorization."
If the court treats him as a guilty minister and takes away the lord, won't you get into trouble again because of it?"
"Manager Li, Li Siye is loyal to the country, he has been fighting horses all his life, and now he is dead, and the disaster is not enough for the deceased, what else can Kong Sheng have enough trouble, and it is not bad for this section.
Moreover, Kong Sheng has admired Li Siye's name for a long time, and since he met the funeral of Li Mansion, he can't miss it.
Chief, you enter the palace first to reply to Your Majesty, Kong Mou finished worshipping General Li, and then came" While speaking, Kong Sheng jumped out of the carriage.
Li Fuguo couldn't stop him, so he had to frown and watch him come forward and knock on the door, hesitate a little, or order his entourage to leave for the palace immediately, and not stay too much in front of Li Siye's mansion, so as not to get into trouble.
As for Kong Sheng, Li Fuguo felt that he had said everything he should have said, but he insisted on not listening, it was Kong Sheng's own business, so why should he meddle with it If there is no defeat and death, Li Siye is definitely one of the few heroes and magnates in Chang'an City.
But who knew that disaster fell from the sky, Xiangzhou was defeated like a mountain, Li Siye himself died in the war, and the bad news spread to the Li Mansion, and the whole mansion was grief-stricken.
It's just that at the time of the funeral, none of the civil and military ministers of Mancheng came to the door to offer condolences, including Li Siye's former subordinates and even close friends.
Faced with the possible wrath of the Son of Heaven, and in the face of the reality that the Duke of Qiuguo lost power after Li Siye's death, the original court and city instantly became uncared for.
Li Siye's wife and children were sad and angry, but they were helpless.
In fact, it is not only Li Siye's situation, but also if this matter is spread to other powerful people.
The defeated general, even if he dies on the battlefield, is not honorable.
If the emperor refuses to admit his merits, not only will he not be posthumously sealed afterwards, but he will also be held responsible.
Not to mention that Kong Sheng entered Li Siye's mansion to pay condolences and worship, Zhao Wang Li went to Dali Temple with great fanfare, but he heard that Kong Sheng had returned home, and he was slightly disappointed.
Li wanted to go to the Chang'an Marquis Mansion to see Kong Sheng, but suddenly heard that Li Jiao, the king of Chu, had gathered the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, entered the palace to face the saint, and wanted to jointly write a letter to impeach Guo Ziyi, Li Guangbi and other generals for the responsibility of defeating the army, and his heart was shocked.
After a slight groan, Li ordered the escort to immediately turn around and divert from the Yamen of Dali Temple to the imperial city.
He had a strong premonition that at this juncture, Kong Sheng would definitely be summoned to the palace by the emperor.
And the Li family really didn't dare to imagine that once Li Jiao succeeded, the responsibility for the defeat of Xiangzhou would fall on Guo Ziyi and others, and once Guo Ziyi and Li Guangbi were punished for this, the power of the soldiers and horses in the Tang Dynasty would completely and completely fall into the control of the King of Chu, and no one would form a check and balance on him.
And in time, Li Jiao planted his own manpower in the army, not to mention that an ordinary prince like Li was the emperor himself, and he had to maintain a corresponding fear of the king of Chu. oshow7 t1706231537:
