The morning court continued as usual. With the opening of eight rivers, Chang'an no longer had to worry about the food pressure brought by the dry year in agriculture. Most people, including Liu Xie, were more optimistic about the future of the court. However, this optimism has not made Liu Xie lose his mind at the moment. It is a future matter after all. The court is still in a dilemma of shortage of food. Unless Liu Xie is willing to ruthlessly lay off troops, the court will not even be able to launch a formal battle of ten thousand people before the autumn harvest.

Last night, Liu Xie's spirit was still a little depressed during the morning court. After solving some government affairs, he announced his retirement.

After Zhong Yao said goodbye to Yang Biao and others, he thought about it and did not return to the mansion immediately. Instead, he led a few guards to Yang Biao's mansion.

Li Ru's identity can basically be confirmed, but now, if Li Ru's identity is exposed, His Majesty will definitely not give up. He needs to make preparations. Even if he is questioned because of His Majesty's trouble, he can ask Yang Biao and his ministers to take him out. However, if this is true, he will not be able to stay in Chang'an anymore.

I just hope that after this incident, Your Majesty can see the importance of aristocratic families to this world and do not go against the trend!

"Mr. Yuan Chang!" While the journey was in front, several figures blocked Zhong Yao's way. Zhong Yao looked up, was slightly stunned, and frowned and said, "I wonder why General Xiahou wanted to block my way?"

Xiahou Lan was dressed in military uniform and holding a silver spear. Behind him were eight Hu Ben Guards, with shackles hanging around her waist and sticks in her hands. She vaguely surrounded Zhong Yao and his two generals. No matter how she looked, she didn't look like she met by chance.

"It's not just that the last general is stopping it, but there are some things that I want to ask Mr. Yuan Chang to go to the yamen." Xiahou Lan stood with a gun, but her eyes fell on a thin man behind Zhong Yao.

"Sima Fang?" Zhong Yao frowned slightly and mentioned the government office. In this Chang'an city, the first thing he thought of was Sima Fang. But soon Zhong Yao realized that something was wrong. Xiahou Lan was one of the generals promoted by Liu Xie himself. Not to mention Sima Fang, even Fan Chou and Zhu Jun could not transfer these people, Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, Gan Ning, Wei Yan, Xiahou Lan and the other six generals in the Chang'an competition were now vaguely formed a group of their own. They were veritable imperial party. In other words, did Your Majesty realize it and was very decisive to attack him?

Zhong Yao narrowed his eyes slightly, suddenly felt a little regretful in his heart. He was too anxious and underestimated Liu Xie's reaction speed.

Thinking that Liu Xie did not show any abnormality in the court before, and he had just left the court, but immediately attacked him, Zhong Yao couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

"After going to the government office, Mr. Yuan Chang will naturally know." Xiahou Lan glanced at the left and right, and the two Hu Ben Guards stepped forward directly, trying to take Zhong Yao away.

"Rareless!" Behind Zhong Yao, the general Zhong Shan shouted angrily, pulled out the ring-headed sword and slashed at a tiger guard without any hesitation.

"Hmph!" Xiahou Lan's eyes cold, and the silver spear in her hand shook. In a moment, the back fire arrived first, and it had already been on Zhongshan's ring-headed sword.

With a crisp sound, Zhong Shan's arm holding the knife trembled, the tiger's mouth became numb, and the ring-headed knife almost flew out of his hand. The blade that slashed at the Tiger Guard was also tilted by Xiahou Lan's strike. Then the silver spear bypassed Zhong Yao like a spiritual snake, and directly knocked away the weapons of another general who was about to take action.

Frowning, he suddenly withdrew his silver spear and looked at the two master generals. Xiahou Lan's eyes gradually became cold: "Mr. Yuan Chang, please don't make mistakes!"

The eight tiger guards around him had already set off and surrounded Zhong Yao and his group.

Zhong Yao frowned and looked at Xiahou Lan, waved his hand, indicating that Zhong Shan and others would not need to take action anymore. Although the number of people on both sides was similar, Xiahou Lan was a Chang'an competition, and he came out of nearly 10,000 people. Adding up these generals may not be Xiahou Lan's opponents. Although Zhong Yao is not a military general, he still has this little vision.

"Can I let me go home and explain it?" Zhong Yao looked at Xiahou Lan and smiled.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Xiahou Lan bowed and said, "Shangguan You Ling. After seeing Mr. Yuan Chang, he immediately asked the teacher to go to the government office without any delay."

"Okay." Zhong Yao turned his head and looked at Zhong Shan, and said calmly: "Go and tell the Grand Tutor about this."

"Here!" Zhong Shan agreed, glared at Xiahou Lan fiercely, turned around and left. Seeing that Xiahou Lan did not speak, the Hu Ben Guards around him did not stop these people.

"Mr. Yuan Chang, please." Xiahou Lan reached out and pointed.

"I haven't congratulated the general on his promotion to the position of Dianjun Academy." Zhong Yao nodded, followed Xiahou Lan, and said with a smile. It didn't look like an escort, but two friends were chatting. Of course, if the eight tiger guards following behind were not staring at each other and were ready to take action at any time, the pedestrians around might believe it.

"Isn't that Mr. Yuan Chang? Why was he arrested?" As the recruitment order was issued, not only poor scholars flocked to Chang'an. Many people who asked about their talents responded to the call of the court. During this period, many scholars gathered in Chang'an City. At this moment, two scholars were drinking in the restaurant along the street, just seeing the previous scene in their eyes. One of them said in surprise.

Zhong Yao is a famous scholar in the world and once ruled the Yingchuan Academy. The circle of aristocratic families is so big. With Zhong Yao's reputation, there are not many people who don't know him in this circle.

The two looked at each other, quickly threw down the banquet, got down from the restaurant, and stopped Xiahou Lan and others.

"Mr. Yuan Chang, don't panic!" The two stopped Xiahou Lan, looked at Xiahou Lan coldly and said, "Who is this? How dare you bully famous scholars?"

"Dianjun Academy Captain, Xiahou Lan, was ordered to perform official duties, two..." Xiahou Lan looked at the two of them, and felt her face and had no impression. She frowned and said, "But will you interfere with the official duties of the court?"

"This..." The two of them couldn't help but suffocate when they heard this. They couldn't afford to take the charge. One of them frowned and said, "Maybe there are any misunderstandings in this. Why don't this general talk to Mr. Yuan Chang?"

"I was ordered to act. As for whether there is any misunderstanding in this, it has nothing to do with me. If you have nothing to do, please get out of here!" Xiahou Lan paused the silver spear to the ground and said coldly: "Don't delay the time of this general."

Seeing this, the two had no choice but to retreat and watch Xiahou Lan and his group escort Zhong Yao away.

On the other side, Zhong Shan led a group of family generals and did not return to the mansion and went straight to Yang Biao's mansion. However, before these people arrived at Yang Biao's mansion, they were intercepted by another group of people. The person who only intercepted them was not an official, but a group of ragged idle men.

"Get out!" Zhong Shan was forced to retreat by Xiahou Lan before. Seeing that the head of the family was taken away and was powerless, he had already felt a lot of evil fire in his heart. At this moment, he saw these young men blocking the road, and he knew the person in charge, but at this moment he wanted to ask him for money. Xiahou Lan could not afford to offend him. At this moment, he faced a group of green skins, so he could not have any good face.

"Oh" The green-skinned leader heard this and glanced at Zhong Shan with his eyes squinted, and a hatred smile appeared on his face full of pockmarks: "I, Liu Mazi, have been in Chang'an for some time. Although I am not a person, not everyone can provoke this in Chang'an City. Last time, Master Zhong missed a villain to do things, and the villain also handled this matter for you. Do you think you will pay the promised remuneration for us?"

"I don't want to say the second time, get out of here!" Zhong Shan looked at Liu Mazi in a sequel, but suddenly felt a little vigilant in his heart. In the past, although these green-skinned scoundrels were arrogant, they also had a look of a hint. Facing a general like a mouse, he saw a cat, and it was too late to hide, but today he bumped into it. Things were quite abnormal.

The most important thing at the moment is to inform Taifu Yang. Zhong Shan didn't want to make trouble at this moment. Looking at Liu Mazi and other groups of green-skinned people, he snorted coldly, took out a purse from his arms and threw it on the ground.

"Master Zhong is just domineering." Liu Mazi picked up the purse from the ground, weighed it in his hand a few times, and looked at Zhong Shan with malicious eyes: "Master Zhong is so anxious, where are you going?"

"It has nothing to do with you. Since I have received the money, why don't you get out of here!" Zhong Shan snorted coldly.

"Hey, Master Zhong asked us to get out. It was just that I was just getting out, but I was in a bad mood today. Master Zhong said something, so Mazi didn't like to listen to me!" Liu Mazi stepped on the stone punch along the street, looked at Zhong Shan and said with a smirk: "Get out, hey, Master Zhong really doesn't treat us as human beings. Today, I, Liu Mazi, just let go and roll over from my crotch. This matter was written off. Otherwise, we would have stopped this journey today!"

A hint of hostility flashed in Zhong Shan's eyes and he shouted sternly: "You are looking for death!"

"Yes, I'm just looking for death, but I don't know if Mr. Zhong has the courage to give me Liu Mazi a knife at the foot of this emperor?" Liu Mazi leaned forward and smiled.

The clay man also has three parts of fire, not to mention that Zhong Shan is Zhong Yao's confidant and the leader of the Zhong family. Not to mention a green-skinned man, in the past, even those scholars who had to salute themselves when they saw him. Never have ever been so troubled? Zhong Shan shouted angrily and kicked Liu Mazi in the stomach, directly kicking Liu Mazi so hard that he vomited blood.

"Come on, kill me!" Liu Mazi rolled around on the ground with her stomach in pain. A group of green skins surrounded her, but was beaten into a rolling gourd by Zhong Shan and others. Seeing this, Liu Mazi immediately opened her throat and yelled.

As soon as Zhong Shan's expression changed, he knew he was going to suffer.

Before he could react, at least forty or fifty Hu Ben Guards suddenly rushed out around him and surrounded the group. The leading thin man glanced at everyone's faces.
