In the first year of Linde (664 AD), the eighth day of the seventh month of autumn, at four o'clock.

On the first day of the seventh month, Li Zhi issued an edict. In the first month of the third year of Linde, there was a major event in Daizong. Daizong was Mount Tai, and all officials knew it well. The only major event related to it was Taishan Fengshan: the earth was built on the mountain to worship the heavens and repay the achievements of the heavens, so it was called Feng. The small mountain at the foot of the mountain was removed and the achievements of the earth were rewarded, so it was called Zen.

To date, there were three emperors in the feudal society, namely Fengshan, the First Emperor Ying Zheng, the Han Wu Emperor Liu Che, and the Han Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu. Their civil and military achievements were outstanding, and Fengshan was well deserved. Emperor Li Jiu's Fengshan was probably the only one in the Tang Dynasty, and it was only Wu Kang who thought it was reasonable.

On the eighth day of the eighth month, the summer vacation ended, and the Holy Lord left Wannian Palace. The team was so powerful that he headed towards Chang'an City and arrived in Wannian County three days later. When Li Jiujue became king, he had a mansion in this county. He happened to pass by on his way back, so he was lucky to remember the old one.

When the emperor goes out for a trip, he will pay benefits, and this time is no exception. All prisoners in this county will be reduced by one level, and their sentence will be demoted to hanging, and hanging will be demoted to remand, and so on. On August 14th, he returned to the imperial city and moved directly into Penglai Palace, and everything returned to normal.

On the fifteenth day of August, Wu Kang came to Yulin Camp to join the office with his official documents. Outside Xuanwu Gate in the North City, there were dense barracks on both sides, which were the camps of the Yulin Army. Each of the Yulin Army had a thousand people on each side, responsible for the safety of the palace. Because it was stationed at the North Gate, it was called the North Gate Imperial Guard or the North Ya Imperial Guard.

The General Zuo Yulin, who was a general of Wukang, was a position of Wukang, and he had to perform his duties. He quickly handled the job and immediately started working after a simple meeting. The work progressed smoothly. The two soldiers on the left and right Yulin, from the Captain Lang to the ordinary soldiers, all obeyed the command.

If we find out the reason, his military career has become the greatest helper. The shadow of the famous tree and the imperial guards know him. He fought in the east and west, fought in the north for seven years. He was able to plan and charge and make countless military achievements.

In the past, Xuzhou was talking about martial arts, and the strongest lieutenant of the Imperial Army was easily killed. The soldiers worshiped the strong, and in their eyes, the instructor was a god. Wu Kang thought it was not enough, so he decided to give him a warning. Only by being completely shocked can he be obedient.

On the Xuanwu Gate School, the guards of the two armies gathered and General Yulin arrived at Qi. Two left Yulin generals: Qi Bi Heli, the general of the right Guard, Zhang Tingshi, the general of the left Guard. Two right Yulin generals: Duke Xue, Ashinazhong, and Li Mengchang, the general of the right Wuwei.

The selection criteria for the imperial guards are: first of all, the shooting skills are superb, and the shooting skills are outside fifty steps, three arrows hit the bull's eye, and three arrows hit the target. Secondly, the power is extremely strong, and it is required to carry five hu of grain, weigh about 500 kilograms, and walk thirty steps.

Wu Kang performed on the spot, shooting the target with a hundred steps, holding three stones strong bows, and all ten arrows were hit by the red heart. Then he performed riding and shooting, and it was a distance of 10 steps, and all ten arrows hit the target, and all of them were hit by the red heart. Let’s take a look, this is a hundred steps through the willows, you can’t compare to it.

Then he demonstrated the weight carrying, carried 600 kilograms of corn, and walked fifty-five steps. He said harshly on the spot: If any guards at the scene are unsatisfied, they will leave the line to challenge. No matter whether the archery method is loaded, as long as they are stronger than me, I will resign as an instructor and never enter the Northern Yaman for the rest of my life.

The so-called show-off is to easily crush you in the field you are good at. The show is very successful, the show is effective, and the scene is silent. Although the four generals of Yulin, although they each have their own ulterior motives, all recognize their strength.

Wu Kang was justified and took over the training of the Imperial Guard and became the instructor of the Imperial Guard. These burly men have never been to the battlefield and are all weak-footed women. But then again, they are guards of honor and are used to serve Li Jiu as the guest of honor, and they don’t need to go to the battlefield.

As a physical education teacher, I am good at formalism, so the purpose of training is enough to have a good formation. If you do your old job, you will take physical education classes and follow the military training in later generations. Standing on the military posture and turning left and right, shouting slogans and walking in step. As long as you are pleasing to the eye, you can complete the task.

For various training events, first tell the key points, and then practice them. Take the standing military posture as an example. In front of two thousand soldiers, under the scorching sun, Wu Kang was as tall as a pine tree, for two hours, his body was still moving. It was so simple and rough, like a wooden man, shocking everyone.

When the military training began very much, the team was supervising. Wu Kang was carrying his hands on his back and his attitude was extremely arrogant: You are all weak, and it is really hard for two hours to stand at attention. So my request, if you persist for half an hour, you will be qualified. Come on, girls.

The naked ridicule is not human words, but the soldiers are taking this set. After the military posture training is completed, they teach them the weapons. The imperial guards have changed their clothes, with short soldiers, long-handled swords, and long-handled Guan swords. The swords weigh about ten kilograms, and look very majestic and are deeply loved by the emperor.

It's still simple and crude. Wu Kang practiced it himself and told the chopping action. Guan Dao cut Huashan with force and slashed 100 or 80 times in a row, and he was arrogant and scolded: I don't have high requirements, I keep chopping 90 times. Even if I pass the training, I will work hard, girls...

After finishing the demonstration, he became a scammer and handed over all the training tasks to the Chief of Yulin. He left the Beiya Military Camp and handled Zuo Fengchen's affairs, and was almost busy. When passing through the harem, Mei Niang would send her confidant to convey various messages.

After the Shengjia returned to the capital, Prince Li Hong wrote a letter to amend the military law of the Tang Dynasty. He fled and avoided the expedition, or did not arrive after the deadline, and no longer held the family. Li Jiu was very satisfied and praised his kind heart and asked Xiantai and Sirong to amend the military law as appropriate.

Mei Niang followed the advice and released the two little princesses from the Yeting Palace and moved them into the Princess Garden. Li Jiulong was very happy and praised her for being reasonable and a virtuous supporter. At the same time, she stayed in Penglai Palace for two consecutive days, and was gentle and entangled with her.

Days pass every day, at 2:00 a.m., life is boring. Leave your house at the hour of Mao, and when Chen is at the hour of Si, the North Ya trains the imperial guards. Rest around noon, go to the Imperial Palace in the inner palace, the Shangshi Bureau's Department, and eat a loving work meal.

The so-called Shangshi Bureau is affiliated with the Sixth Bureau of the Inner Palace and is responsible for the emperor's food. The dishes of the Sishen Department are tried by Shangshi, and they are presented before they are poisoned. After trying them layer by layer, it is basically impossible to poison the emperor.

In order to win over the ministers, the emperor ordered Shangshi Bureau to provide a loving lunch, which was eaten by Wu Kang. Every time at lunch time, Mei Niang would send people to reward various pastries, but in fact, she secretly informed her. After dinner, she left the harem and went to the Zuofengchen Guard of the Imperial City to handle the affairs of the ward.

At noon, he went to Penglai Palace on time and took Qianniuwei to patrol. At the fourth lunar month, he got off work, went home to accompany his wife and daughter, paid public grain on time. He stayed in the bedroom to embroider, sewed chess boards, and carved chess pieces. All of them were made by himself, and he planned to give him a birthday gift on Yuan Gongyu's birthday on the twelfth lunar month this year.

At the twenty-year-old of August, Zuo Fengchen received good news. The Grand Secretary Xian Dou Dexuan was transferred to Siyuan Taichang Bo and was also prosecuted for the left prime minister. This was a political signal. He and the right prime minister Liu Xiangdao were both political enemies of Li Yifu. He was promoted to the Minister of Revenue and Li Jiu was going to take action in order to investigate the accounts of Yifu.

What should come will always come. Wu Kang knew very well that Li Mao’s gravediggers were all in place. Li Jiu was reminding me that if I started a political storm, the ending would definitely not be beautiful. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and he raised his head and said lightly: “Is it a storm? Come in and speak.”

Du Huaigong entered the door, smiling and praised with a thumbs up: "The general is so powerful. Just listen to the footsteps, you will know who is coming. It is better than my uncle. My subordinates dare to assert that the general is blindfolded and can go home with his eyes and smell it with his nose."

This bastard, calling me a dog, I can't compare to your father-in-law Li Ji. Wu Kang rolled his eyes and said sarcastically: "A dog can't spit out ivory, and he is afraid that no one can match the ability to make jokes. Don't say much nonsense, I'm going to ask you to investigate, is there any result?"

Speaking of serious matters, Hui Gong and serious, he closed the door casually and replied in a low voice: "I can assert that Qianniu is in Tingzhi and is very hostile to you. When I invited him to drink that day, I deliberately pointed the topic to the general. During the conversation, he inadvertently said the word "Martial Locust".

Huai Gong continued: "Locusts and rats are not good things, they mean disasters, they are scolding you. Locusts are commonly known as grasshoppers. There is a folk saying that grasshoppers after autumn harvest can not jump for a few days. Tingzhi's implication is that the general will suffer disaster and it is right in front of him."

Wu Kang tapped the table lightly and sneered at the corner of his mouth. The disaster was brewing. That day, he met his wife Zheng in Jing'an Palace and asked her to send a message to invite Tingzhi to visit. But to this day, he has not visited the door, and the boundaries have been drawn. It is already clear that Xue's conspiracy to overthrow the martial arts is in full swing, and he will take action soon.

He shook his head slightly and laughed: "After late autumn, the weather gradually becomes colder and food begins to be short of food. After the male grasshoppers are mate, they end their lives, and after the female grasshopper lays eggs, they will freeze or starve to death. So after the autumn grasshoppers can't jump for a few days, are there any other news?"

Huai Gong spread his hands and smiled suddenly with a wretched smile: "I want to catch some locusts and see how they mingle. There must be very interesting news from the Shangguan family, but my uncle has news. The old man said yesterday that Xue was in Xianqingchu and recommended her niece to ask the saint to establish a concubine, but later it was left unresolved."

Wu Kang smiled with his eyebrows and eyes. Xue Jieyu was so heartless, so how could he get his confidence? The harem of Guanlong was cleaned up just now and could not lead the wolf into the house. Could it be that because of this, you became a monk and had a big temper?

I have seen through everything. You oppose Mei Niang not loyalty, but for the sake of profit. It is still the same old saying that the queen is a Guanlong girl, which is in line with your interests. This is a fight for power and profit, and it has nothing to do with right or wrong, let alone loyalty and treacherous.

He restrained his smile and said sincerely: "I will not arrange patrol missions in the future. I will gather all my energy to pry Tingzhi's mouth open. On my behalf, I convey my sincere gratitude to the Duke of England, and thank Brother Huaigong, and I will repay you in the future."

Huai Gong crossed his legs and blinked and smiled strangely: "Tingzhi notified last night that his new woman would invite him to have a full moon wine ten days later. I just can't figure it out, it's not a son, why are you doing that show? Did you notify General Wu?"

Shangguan Tingzhi's daughter should be Shangguan Wan'er, and she was also a pitiful child. Wu Kang shook his head lightly, and he felt a little fussy, saying seriously: "The Wu family and the Shangguan family once had a marriage agreement. The Wu family will marry this little girl. However, things are unpredictable. I can't give birth to children, so I can only sigh."

Huai Gong sneered, put down the teacup in his hand, and expressed his expression of disdain: "Why should you hide it? My uncle mentioned it by chance? I know the reason. The Shangguan family is too arrogant and arrogant. If you really marry his family, you will be in trouble. Without saying much nonsense, I will go to work, pay the full moon gift money, and pay me for it."

After saying that, he turned around and left, looking careless. Wu Kang ordered lightly: "Go to the Youfengchen Guard and notify Cui Shenqing in my name. Let him ask him to take leave and go home, notify the butler Qian Shun, the time to close the net is here. General Xin Hongliang of Youfengchen, is my best friend, and he should give face."

Huai Gong responded loudly, bowed his hand perfunctorily, and left humming a small song. Wu Kang sneered, this kid is quite likable. He acts casually, speaks humorously, and has no right to do it all day. He is also very popular, and he will always be happy when interacting with him.

Li Ji's old-fashioned choice to be his son-in-law was really a treasure. No wonder he wanted to use his head to pay tribute to the military flag of the expedition a few years later. After drinking the cup of tea, he left the office room and came to the gate of the shop. The guards had gathered, and thirty guards were taken, led by Shangguan Tingzhi.

From Danfeng Gate to the palace, head north along the Imperial Street to the outside of Hanyuan Hall. Wu Kang called for a stop to the team and looked at Shangguan Tingzhi, and his tone was a little guilty: "I just heard from Huaigong that Tingzhi had a new woman, and invited him to have a full moon wine. As your boss, he did not receive the invitation and did not do his job well."

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, and Tingzhi forced a smile: "I wanted to invite the general, but my father stopped him. He said that the general was busy and it was inconvenient to disturb the trivial matters. The woman's full moon wine was on this month. If the general was condescending, my family would not ask for it."

Wu Kang smiled without saying anything, his smile was strange, and he didn't say much. The guards were divided into two teams, one inspected the Western Office, and the other continued to head north. This game between the two sides was absolutely bloody and could be said to be immortal. No matter what the result was, the Shangguan family's banquet was destined to be unlucky.

Pass through Xuanzheng Hall, bypass Zichen Hall, walk through the spacious Hengjie Street, and enter the harem sleeping area. Surrounded by tall palace walls, the main hall is Penglai Hall, which is the queen's sleeping palace. There is Hanliang Hall behind the hall, and the north side of the hall is Taiye Pond, which is very cool in summer. Penglai Hanliang Hall, several halls on both sides, are arranged side by side with them.

Apart from the guards, there were only palace eunuchs, and foreign ministers were forbidden to enter. The team led by Wu Kang patrols according to the route and came to Hanliang Hall. Seeing Li De from afar, he turned around and ordered his subordinates: "You continue patrolling and wait for me outside the hall gate."

The guard Yingnuo left, and the deputies hurried over and greeted each other. The two walked together. Going north along the corridor, they came to the pavilion in the lake, and saw a familiar back. Two palace maids served, Mei Niang turned her back to the palace, staring at the lake in a daze.

The back was a little melancholy, and Wu Kang frowned slightly, and couldn't help but stop. The deputy official sighed and his expression was full of begging: "Since returning to the capital, the queen is in a bad mood and has not smiled for half a month. I am very anxious, general, please persuade me, this is not possible."

If persuasion is useful, there will be no sad things in this world. Wu Kang smiled helplessly, walked towards the pavilion, and tried to lighten his steps. Mei Niang did not turn around, put the porcelain cup on the tray, signaling the palace servant to leave, and sighed to the lake: "Kanglang, tell me who is the most difficult to guard against?"

Wu Kang took the porcelain cup and came to her side. He pinched the fish food in the cup and sprinkled it gently on the lake. Countless carp scrambled for it, ripples, and replied softly: "Defend to guard against it day and night, it is difficult for family thieves to guard against it, and relatives and friends. People often take it lightly when facing relatives and friends, and the gutter will capsize."

The fish in the lake scrambled for food, Mei Niang looked down and sighed lightly after a long time: "Starting July 20th, the saint was busy with government affairs and slept in Zichen Hall. And every few days, he went to Helin Temple in Xinei to accompany Concubine Xue Jie to worship Buddha, and he didn't let me follow him."

My silly sister, they are plotting to depose you to a commoner, and they will definitely not let you accompany you. Wu Kang stopped his movements and smiled bitterly gradually. This time, Li Jiu is the mastermind of the plot to depose the queen. He may be care about the old feelings, so hesitated. This is the best news for us.

After a brief entanglement, I continued to feed the fish and decided to keep it secret. I will solve this kind of bad thing myself. Mei Niang turned her head and tears were on the corner of her eyes: "You have guessed that the worship of Buddha in Helin Temple is actually a cover. Because that little bitch is also in Helin Temple, the genius has found out that they have an affair."

Tears fell, and Mei Niang cried with grievance: "Sister Yuan passed away, and the saint was named Helan, the first-ranked wife of Wei, and brought back to the palace to take care of her. But I didn't expect that if I took care of her in bed, why would my niece do this?"

The more I spoke, the more sad he became, and my voice broke: "I am not bad to Sister Yuan. Minzhi adopted the Wu family and changed his name to Wu Minzhi to be the descendant of the grandfather. After removing the filial piety clothes, I became the Grand Historian of Lantai and ascended the Duke of Zhou. See how they mother and daughter can repay me and seduce my husband?"

Wu Kang smiled even harder. This kind of bullshit cannot be slapped by a single slap. Li Jiu is very responsible. Mei Niang continued to cry and gritted her teeth with hatred: "I will let two princesses stay in the bedroom, and I will test me with words. I will try to make her a concubine and die this heart. As long as I am still alive, the harem will not be affected."

He is a greedy man again. With glory and wealth, he still wants to covet the throne. Wu Kang took a silk squid and wiped her tears, comforting her softly: "A mother likes her, she is like a daughter, she is not a good bird, I have guessed it long ago. Don't worry, she is just a vase, I'll explain it to you."

Shaking his head, he said lightly: "A woman like a vase looks exquisite and has a empty belly. Her sister is full of knowledge. When a saint is sick, she helps deal with state affairs and is called a political ally. The saint is talented and will not give up her right-hand man because of the vase."

Wu Kang poured all the fish food into the lake, and admired the competition for food for hundreds of fish. His tone was quite sarcastic: "If you don't have a diamond, don't take on porcelain work. If you don't have that great ability, don't have too much ambitions, you will make you laugh. If your sister is not at ease, I will help you deal with it, just like dealing with Wu Shun..."

Speaking of this, he looked at Mei Niang and lowered his voice: "I killed Wu Shun, she is your sister. I believe her sister has some hatred in her heart. Unfortunately, she has no choice. No matter how much you hate me, I will do that. I will not allow anyone to threaten your safety."

Mei Niang burst into tears again, shook her head and said firmly: "That thing has passed, never mention it. I have no resentment towards you, let alone hatred. Kanglang, listen to me, the saint protects the Helan family very thoughtfully. General You Fengchen is responsible and the You Yulin Army assists. You have no chance, don't act rashly."

Wu Kang nodded, handed her a handkerchief, and smiled bitterly again, "Maybe starting tomorrow, Li Yi's mansion will be in trouble, and in nine out of ten, he will be exiled after being imprisoned. His gravedigger, the manipulator behind the scenes, is actually me."

Mei Niang was dumbfounded, and Wu Kang laughed in silence: "Among the civil and military officials in the court, there are only a few people who will help you. For you, Yifu is also your right-hand man, but I want to cut him off. I am afraid that not only Yifu, but also will implicate others, and you are also your helper."

After half a quarter of silence, Mei Niang gradually came back to her senses, shook her head and said firmly: "Yifu is arrogant and domineering, the saint is extremely disappointed, he is taking it upon himself. I can feel that it is a big deal for you to hide something from me. But I am not worried, because I am very sure that Kang Lang will not harm me."

Wu Kang was very pleased. He carefully observed the surroundings and confirmed that they were absolutely safe. He lowered his voice and asked, "How are you arranged in the palace? For example, when His Majesty met someone in Zichen Hall, discussing what happened, and how long will it take to know?"

Mei Niang immediately replied: "My sister has been in charge for many years, and the rewards given by the saints have been bribed. There are eyeliners everywhere in the entire palace. What Kang Lang just said just now will be reported in just two days. Tell me honestly, what happened and why did this question be asked?"
