Chapter 6 The Death of Liang Si

The conversation between Li Jue and Mu Xi lasted for an hour, and no one knew exactly what they said. They only knew that Li Jue left Chang'an with Xie Zhui, Liang Si and some supplies on the second day after the emperor issued the order.

Chang'an is very far away from Yanyang, the disaster-stricken place.It will take one month to take the official path, so in order to get relief for the common people as soon as possible, Li Jue and others chose to take a small path.

At the same time, the emperor's imperial decree was sent to Yanyang quickly, hoping that the local officials could find a way to appease the victims and avoid riots.

On the trail to Yanyang, there lived a group of vicious bandits.The imperial court sent people to encircle and suppress it several times, but for some reason, they all ended in failure.

This group of bandits is strange to say, they only rob rich people passing by, and never touch a single finger of ordinary people.

Because most of them robbed unscrupulous rich businessmen in Chang'an and officials who searched for the people's fat and anointing, they actually gained support from the people, and the imperial court couldn't force them to suppress them. If they were not careful, they would anger the public opinion. .

Before Li Jue and others entered the alley, Liang Si tried to persuade Li Jue, but Li Jue made up his mind, but Liang Si couldn't.

Stopping and walking along the way, Liang Si felt more and more uneasy as he saw that he was getting closer and closer to the territory of the bandits, thinking that something would happen.

In the disaster relief team this time, the Three Princes' Party failed to insert people in. Except for Liang Si, the rest were all members of the prince. No wonder Mr. Liang was nervous.

In the court hall, Liang Si had many grievances with the prince and others, and this time he was specially asked by the prince to come, so he would be worried that the prince would kill him, if he died here, it would be more harm than good!

Liang Si's conflicted mood didn't affect others. Li Jue felt extremely funny when he saw Liang Si's furrowed brows and the faint trace of nervousness.

"Master Liang, do you think these bandits will rob us? We are members of the imperial court, and we are just in line with their appetite!"

Hearing this, Liang Si couldn't help wiping the beads of sweat from his head, and stammered, "Mother...Prince, what they robbed are corrupt...corrupt officials, we...we are giving relief food, it should be It won't rob us."

Li Jue laughed, and looked at Liang Si meaningfully, inexplicably strange: "Master Liang, this is not necessarily true! We are honest officials, but you..."

What he said made Liang Si's scalp tingle, and his heart became even more frightened. He secretly hated Li Jue for insisting on taking the side road, so that nothing would happen if he arrived a few days late, but he didn't dare to offend Li Jue in the slightest: "His Royal Highness, You are dedicated to serving the people, and those gangsters will not harm you, so you don't have to worry about the little ones."

This flattery was just right, but how can Li Jue be the kind of person who loves to listen to good words, he smiled lightly, and blocked Liang Si's compliments: "Then let's just wait and see... speed up !"

The sudden roar frightened Liang Si very much, countless vicious thoughts flashed in his mind, wishing that Li Jue would be killed by the robbers, that would be the end of it all.

Liang Si, who couldn't react quickly, ate a mouthful of ashes at the rapid movement of the team, but he couldn't take advantage of it to find trouble, he was really aggrieved.

In the disaster relief team, only Liang Si and Xie Zhui were civil officials, and the rest were military generals.

When passing by a hillside, Chu Xie and Liang both heard some movement, but no one said anything.Seeing that he was about to pass through the bandits' territory, Liang Si couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Li Jue's words still rang in his ears, and he couldn't help feeling timid.

Now that he is about to leave the bandit's territory, Liang Si will naturally relax a lot.

However, at the moment when he suddenly saw the bandit, the big stone in his heart came up again.

The leader is full of beards, and he is tall and strong, even more so than the generals in the army. However, if he falls into a bandit, he must be a fierce general of the later Tang Dynasty!

"Hahaha, after waiting for so long, a deal is finally delivered to your door! Hurry up and leave the things behind!" The bandit leader said frantically, the knife in his hand was shining under the sunlight, intentionally or unintentionally, from Liang Si. flashed across his face.

"Su Wen Er and other bandits have always only robbed corrupt officials, and now the relief food from the court...you may not be able to move it!" Li Jue still looked like he was not afraid of the sky falling, but his gentle voice made Liang The adult trembled.

"Hmph, what a joke! Who doesn't know that there is one of you who is greedy and has collected so much people's fat and people's anointing, that this disaster relief food may be a bit tricky!"

Hearing this, Xie Zhui, who has always been upright, couldn't take it anymore. How could the prince suffer such slander for nothing! "Stop talking nonsense! This is the disaster relief food approved by the Holy Majesty, how can you and other villains frame it like this!"

The bandit leader seemed to have heard a big joke, and sneered, "You sound good! You corrupt officials never want to let others live, so why bother to say something sanctimonious? Brothers, give it to me!"

There was no room for Li Jue and others to negotiate, the bandits rushed forward, blood spattered wherever they passed.

For some reason, the group of people who were said to be bandits had a faint sense of discipline when they fought, not at all like the bandits known for their "boldness".

Although the guards are strong, the bandits seem to be even stronger!

In the process of fighting with the guards, the robbers seemed to be in no man's land, without any hindrance.Seeing that the situation was not good, Liang Si left Li Jue and ran away!

Regarding Liang Si's behavior, Li Jue smiled instead of anger during the battle. After Liang Si escaped from sight, Li Jue waved his hand: "Stop!"

With this order, both the guards and the bandits stopped. What's more, the fallen guards and bandits stood up!

The bandit leader bowed respectfully to Li Jue, and said, "The wolf has buried several people, just wait for Liang Si to throw himself into the trap!"

Li Jue looked at the wolf with a smile, and a look of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Among all the people, only Xie Zhui was in a cloud of fog and didn't know what to say.Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but wonder: "Your Highness, this is..."

Li Jue smiled heartily and said, "Master Xie can't see it? This is just a strategy to deal with Liang Si!"

Xie Zhui looked at Li Jue in surprise, and then glanced at the "bandit" a few times, but he still couldn't digest it.He couldn't figure out how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince could be associated with the "Bandit".

Without continuing to answer Xie Zhui's doubts, Li Jue only took a deep look at Xie Zhui and said, "There are some things that Mr. Xie should not know."

Having been an official for many years, although Xie Zhui said that he acted straightforwardly and did not turn around, he still understood the basic principles, so he stopped talking immediately, as if he hadn't seen anything about today's events.

And Xie Zhui's acquaintance is also what Li Jue wants. For Xie Zhui, the person who follows him, Li Jue can't trust him like he trusts Mu Xi.

After all, people's hearts are separated by belly.

Li Jue and the others waited in place for a long time before they saw a group of people dressed as bandits rushing over, carrying something in their hands.

The figure gradually approached Li Jue, and the person on the horse immediately got off his horse and knelt down towards Li Jue.

"Subordinates, I have seen the prince!"

Li Jue smiled lightly, he was indescribably satisfied with his subordinates: "Get up."

"Thank you prince!"

Among them, the person carrying the bag took a step forward and said to Li Jue, "The crown prince, Liang Si is dead, and here is the head, please check it with the prince!" Then he opened the bag and threw it on the ground.

The smell of blood came out in an instant, and Liang Si didn't understand how he died like this until his death, and he couldn't believe that Li Jue would attack him not long after he set off.

A face full of disbelief.

After watching such a bloody scene, Xie Zhui couldn't bear it, but he had to endure it. He couldn't be looked down upon by a group of subordinates, right? "Your Highness, Liang Si is dead, what should I do next?"

"I have my own arrangements for the rest of the matter, we just have to hurry on."

A look of hesitation flashed across Xie Zhui's face, thinking of what Li Jue had said to him, it was not good to ask again, so he had to answer yes.

"go!"

After a word of walking, everyone continued on their way, and there was no abnormality in their expressions.

After Li Jue left, Canglang also led the "bandits" away.At the same time, a figure was rushing to the prime minister's mansion.

The prime minister at this time must not know that his loyal lackey will die because of this.After all the calculations, he was short of chess after all.

The prime minister was drinking tea leisurely, and the plan for the crown prince had been arranged, so he was relieved now.Since Li Jue took over the disaster relief, he let Li Jue go and never return.

Suddenly, a servant hurriedly pushed open the door, and before the Prime Minister got angry, the servant's words left him no time to pursue his crime of rudeness. "The crown prince was attacked, Master Liang died!"

The attack on the crown prince is great news. Of course, it depends on the result, right?If the prince is safe and sound, then there is nothing to be happy about.

"Tell me slowly."

"On the path to Yanyang, the crown prince ran into a robber who had been rampant for a long time. The two parties couldn't reach a conclusion, and they fought violently. The crown prince was injured, Xie Zhui fell into a coma, and Mr. Liang died!"

The prime minister was a little suspicious, but this person was a spy he had trained for many years, and he would never lie.In this way, it is an indisputable fact that the prince was injured!

Thinking of this, the prime minister hurriedly asked, "What about the food?"

"The bandits lost to the guards. Although the prince suffered heavy losses, the food was saved. The prince and the remaining guards are escorting him to Yanyang."

Keep it?This disappointed the prime minister. If the food was robbed, he would be accused of ineffective escort for the crown prince!If you are fabricating some facts, you can cheat the prince severely on the charge of colluding with bandits and hijacking relief food, which will make the emperor even more disappointed in him.

The prime minister couldn't help but sighed that God was unfair, so the prince escaped.

However, it is not a waste of money to hurt the prince.The gang of bandits came just in time.

The prime minister waved his hand, motioning the servant to back down.After a long while, he said to the dark place: "The prince has been injured, and Xie Zhui has also fallen into a coma. This is our great opportunity. Inform the third prince that our plan can be implemented. In addition, Liang Si's trash is dead. Among the descendants, find someone who is easy to control to take over Liang Si's seat."

"Yes."

After arranging everything, the prime minister was worried that Mu Xi would make trouble, so he called the maid and said, "Go and invite me here."

"Yes."

The show is about to begin.
