Chapter 178: Traveling and gathering potential(1/2)

The female disciple was so strong that Gu Qing couldn't beat her, so he decisively decided to change back to his obedient self and followed the female disciple to Li Twelve Niang's house.

Entering the front hall of the mansion, there were many familiar people in the hall. Li Twelve Niang sat in the main seat and stared at him coldly. Next to her were Li Guangbi and Chen Fufeng.

Gu Qing sighed secretly. He actually wanted to leave Chang'an quietly, but looking at the posture in front of him, it seemed that Li Twelve Niang and the others knew something.

"Aunt Li..." Gu Qing bowed obediently.

Li Twelve Niang said calmly: "I heard that you are going back to Qingcheng County?"

Gu Qing asked curiously: "I just came out of Prince Ji's Mansion, and Aunt Li knew it so quickly?"

Li Twelve Niang smiled: "Don't underestimate my ability to inquire about information. I also know that you went to Qingcheng County to escape death, but you went to die."

Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "My skills... are actually not weak. If I fight with my life, I can still make two thieves."

Li Twelve Niang laughed, stretched out a finger and said: "You are very arrogant. If you can beat my finger, I will believe you."

Gu Qing's face turned dark. It was so insulting and he felt hurt.

At this time, Gu Qing suddenly regretted not listening to Zhang Huaiyu's words. If he kept squatting, even if he didn't see any improvement in his physical skills, he could at least exercise his waist and kidneys. In short, there were advantages and no disadvantages.

The other party was an elder, so Gu Qing decided to endure this. The fact was that, in terms of skill, Gu Qing was indeed inferior to even one finger of Li Twelve Niang.

Turning his head to look at the sky, Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "Aunt Li, if nothing happens, my nephew would like to leave first and explain to aunt after I come back from Qingcheng County..."

Li Twelve Niang said leisurely: "If you leave, I'm afraid you won't be able to come back."

"After you left Prince Ji's Mansion, do you know how many troops Prince Ji sent to leave Chang'an? There were more than a hundred people in total, and they came out in batches. They should all be dead soldiers raised by the Prince's Mansion." Li Twelve Niang stared at him and said: "

The soldiers who can be supported by the palace are all very skilled. If a cavalry team of more than a hundred people assembles in formation and charges, they can smash the copper and iron walls. How can you stop them? Just you and Zhang Huaiyu?

"

Gu Qing sighed: "Of course I won't be so stupid as to confront them face to face. I'll try to escape with my life first."

Li Guangbi snorted coldly from the side: "You are stupid to go to Qingcheng County alone. Gu Qing, I always thought you were a calm, wise, courageous and strategic young man. Why are you acting like a fool this time? You are alone.

What’s the use of going back to Qingcheng County?”

Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "Who told me to have a friend who is holding me back? It's just that a friend who is holding me back is also a friend. Besides, Zhang Huaiyu is also in Qingcheng County. I'm worried that she will be wrong."

Li Twelve Niang shook her head and sighed: "You, you, you have caused trouble again. You are just a left guard chief, a mere sixth-rank official, but you dare to provoke the land that is most valued by the Tang Dynasty dignitaries. Last time you and I

When I mentioned this, I knew something was wrong."

"Your parents and I are determined to be chivalrous all our lives. When we travel around the world, we have seen and heard all kinds of injustices among the people. In the final analysis, most of them are caused by the land..." Li Twelve Niang said with a sad expression: "There are too many such things, and we have too many.

We are disheartened, and the powerful people who enclose the land are all powerful. We have no other choice but to master the killing skills. We can only choose to secretly collect evidence of the powerful people's illegal acts, and use force or evidence to threaten the powerful people to compromise, but we have never

We have had direct conflicts with powerful people, and we know the stakes."

"Land is the lifeblood of the powerful. Anyone who dares to touch them will take crazy revenge. Gu Qing, you and the Qingcheng County magistrate are too reckless this time. Now that the dead men of Prince Ji's Palace have left Chang'an, this matter will definitely not be rectified.

"

Gu Qing lowered his head and said: "Yes, I know that it is hard to do good. No matter whether it is good or evil, I have to deal with this matter in the end. I am going to Qingcheng County today. Whether I run for my life or risk my life, I want to take Song Gensheng and

Zhang Huaiyu found a way out."

Li Twelve Niang stared at him funny: "How do you three find a way out?"

Gu Qing smiled bitterly and said: "My nephew has no clue at this time. Let's get to Qingcheng County first."

Li Twelve Niang glared at him and said: "I have told you more than once that I am your only relative in the world. Such a big thing happened, but you didn't even say a word to your relatives, and you planned to be that lonely person."

A hero breaks into the dragon's den and the tiger's den alone? Do you think this is the time to show off as a hero and be a good man?"

"My nephew doesn't want to cause trouble for Aunt Li..."

Li Twelve Niang said: "I don't understand the affairs of the officialdom. I just want to ask you, it is impossible to solve this matter in the officialdom of the court, is it?"

Gu Qing thought for a while and said: "Yes, the court officials are all powerful officials. As Aunt Li said, the land is their lifeblood. They will definitely not help me, and will even add insult to injury. I can't ask the imperial concubine for help.

, the Yang family will only occupy more land in the Tang Dynasty now... In short, all the roads to the Chang'an court are cut off, so I have to return to Qingcheng County alone."

Li Twelve Niang stood up and said: "Our luggage has been packed. Since there is no way out of Chang'an, let's go to Qingcheng County together to see the skills of the prince's soldiers."

Gu Qing was stunned for a moment, then said anxiously: "Aunt Li must not take any risks..."

Li Twelve Niang's expression was calm, she glanced at him and said, "You can take risks, why can't I take risks? Not only do I want to go with you, but so do they."

As she spoke, Li Twelve Pointed to Chen Fufeng and the others.

Chen Fufeng and the others stood up and laughed and said: "Although your friend the county magistrate is a bit naive, he is still a good official who prays for the people. What we go around in the world is not just to let good people live a long life, but also to help

The bad guy will go to heaven early, the three of us will just go with you, life or death."

Li Guangbi stroked his beard and said with shame: "I can't go. I am General Zuolang and I am from the Li family in Liucheng. I..."

Li Twelve Niang glanced at him and said: "Okay, I understand your difficulties. There is no reason to force friends to communicate with each other."

Gu Qing still shook his head and said: "Aunt Li, I really can't go. You know, this trip will lead to a narrow escape from death..."

Li Twelve Niang sighed: "Don't say any more, I have made up my mind. Back then, your parents also left without saying a word and died in that fierce battle. I regard this as the most hated thing in my life. This time, I

Don’t want to miss it again.”

Li Guangbi looked at Gu Qing and said: "Although I cannot go to life or death with you, I will try my best to help you in Chang'an."

Gu Qing said cautiously: "Can you help me mobilize my troops? They can crush them all at once and everything will be solved."

Li Guangbi laughed: "Then you, me, and your friend the county magistrate are waiting to kill everyone? If the imperial soldiers and generals are transferred to this matter, the nature will be different, especially if the troops are transferred without seeing the official documents of the Ministry of War and without obtaining the tiger charm.

, which is tantamount to conspiracy and treason. No one can save us, so you’d better give up on this idea.”

Gu Qing said disappointedly: "Uncle Li, you should help my nephew to invite some Taoist priests to do some blessing rituals in Chang'an."

"You can have this."

Li Guangbi smiled and said: "Although I can't help you mobilize troops, I still have more than a dozen personal guards around me. They are all my disciples who came out of Liucheng with me. I ordered them to stand by outside the door. Please stop for a moment and you will join us.

Take them away, I have given the order, and they will not hesitate when it comes to desperate times."

As he was talking, a dark shadow quickly passed by in front of the hall. Zhang Huaijin rushed in like a cheerful little mouse. He was so surprised to see Gu Qing that he clasped his hands and subconsciously blurted out: "Second brother..."

Immediately reacting, Zhang Huaijin hurriedly changed his words: "No, Brother Gu..."

After saying this, Zhang Huaijin changed his arrogant demeanor and bowed his head and bowed to Gu Qing tenderly. The scene was very scary for a time.

Gu Qing sighed helplessly: "Third brother, can you be normal?"

Zhang Huaijin covered his mouth and chuckled artificially: "Brother Gu is joking. Huaijin has always been so gentle and generous, and his temperament is also quiet and pleasant. Ikea Yishi...ah!! Who? Who shot me with beans?"

Zhang Huaijin covered his forehead and cried out in pain, and his forehead was already a small red spot.

Li Twelve Niang sat at the head of the table and said calmly: "I played it. Gu Qing is right. Huaijin, can you be normal? If you keep acting like this, I will help you ask the doctor to take a look."

Zhang Huaijin pouted aggrievedly, ran to Li Twelve Niang, shook her arm and acted coquettishly: "Aunt Li, things are already normal. Recently, I have been staying at home, studying and doing embroidery."

Li Twelve Niang sneered: "Don't lie to me. You were clearly banned by your second ancestor, and you just got the chance to escape today, right? It's just the right time. Gu Qing and I are leaving Chang'an soon. You guys should say goodbye."

Zhang Huaijin was stunned, then looked at Gu Qing and said anxiously: "Farewell? Why are you leaving Chang'an? How long will you be away?"

Gu Qing smiled gently and said, "I'll be back after a few days. You can study and embroider at home and wait for me to come back."

The dead men of the palace were already on their way. Gu Qing was in a anxious mood and had no time to say anything to Zhang Huaijin. After a few perfunctory words, he hurriedly set off on the road with Li Twelfth Niang, Chen Fufeng, and a dozen of Li Guangbi's personal guards.

Zhang Huaijin reluctantly walked to the door. Until everyone disappeared, he squatted at the door and drew circles sadly.

Li Guangbi walked to her side, squatted down as well, and sighed: "I just said goodbye, you should have said a few more words..."

Zhang Huaijin suddenly looked up at him: "Why? What on earth did Brother Gu and Aunt Li do when they left Chang'an?"

Li Guangbi felt heavy and sighed.

…………

Zhang Jiuzhang, the minister of Honglu Temple.

Zhang Huaijin, who was furious, kicked open the door of Zhang Jiuzhang's study. Zhang Jiuzhang, who was practicing calligraphy in the study, was so frightened that his hands shook, and all the elegant and free-spirited calligraphy was suddenly destroyed.

Zhang Jiuzhang felt distressed and angry, and said angrily: "Zhang Huaijin, you are getting more and more outrageous! Do you want to force me to send you back to your hometown in Shaozhou to think about your mistakes behind closed doors?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Jiuzhang was stunned. Zhang Huaijin stood at the door and burst into tears. His beautiful and lovely face was full of tears. Zhang Jiuzhang's anger disappeared. He stepped forward and said distressedly: "What's wrong with Huaijin? Who bullied you?"

"

Zhang Huaijin sobbed: "Second Ancestor, something is wrong. Brother Gu, he, he..."

"What happened to him? Did he get into trouble?"

"He and Aunt Li have returned to Qingcheng County, Shuzhou. I heard that they are going to fight with others. Second Patriarch, please go and save him."

Zhang Jiuzhang felt anxious and asked hurriedly: "Li Twelfth Mother has gone too? Who are they fighting with? Who has Gu Qing provoked?"

Zhang Huaijin choked and choked up and recounted the details revealed by Li Guangbi. Zhang Jiuzhang's eyelids jumped after hearing this, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

"Second Ancestor, please report to His Majesty quickly and report those bad guys! They ganged up to bully Brother Gu..." Zhang Huaijin tugged on his sleeve and said.

Zhang Jiuzhang smiled bitterly and shook his head. How can such a thing be reported? Once it is reported, it will offend the powerful people in the dynasty, and the emperor may not take it seriously. The matter of the powerful occupying private land is just a window paper. Everyone knows it, and the emperor knows it.

The occupation of farmland is becoming more and more difficult to control, but he can't come up with an effective method, because it is not done by the powerful people of one family, but almost all the powerful people are involved in the occupation of farmland.

The law does not punish the public. Once someone is punished, the entire circle of powerful people will rebound violently, and the emperor will have to be afraid of three points.
