Chapter 344: The Weird Hall
In Luoyang Palace, Li Ling came here for the second time. Compared with the last guest banquet hall, he was led to the official court meeting place.
Inside the hall, the dragon pillars on the sky are filled with majesty, and the vastness is full of solemnity. The steps are gilded, and Liu Honggao's seat is on the dragon throne. However, the atmosphere inside the hall makes Li Ling's heart full of strangeness.
"My memory, Li Ling, pay homage to Your Majesty." He walked into the hall, wearing a dark and blue shirt, and Li Ling bowed to Liu Hong and said.
I don’t know if it was because Li Ling was swaying with his head high and looked a little arrogant. Many old ministers in the hall frowned when they looked at Li Ling, and some even showed a look of disgust in their eyes.
"General Li doesn't have to be too polite. General Li has worked hard on the expedition. I originally wanted to let the general rest more. Today I enter the court, can there be important things?" Liu Hong's voice was powerless, but it echoed clearly in the hall.
After receiving the gift, Li Ling glanced straight at the entire hall. He looked at people for a moment and looked at them for a while, and would dodge his eyes when Li Ling glanced around. Only Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun nodded kindly at him, and the rest of the people were all afraid of Li Ling's harshness.
At this time, the hall really attracted many celebrities from the Eastern Han Dynasty, and many of them were despised by ordinary men and women.
These people are never afraid of killing generals, and it is common to confront each other in person. However, it is difficult to describe the killing. Li Ling, who is privately called evil people by them, even if there are brave men, face Li Ling's cold eyes, he dare not speak out again.
If you experience more than a person in killing, it will inevitably be a bit different from ordinary people. Perhaps there are psychological reasons. When everyone is scandalized by Li Ling, they will always feel that Li Ling's eyes are secretly looking at their vital fatal parts.
This was not the time for court discussion, but there were quite a few civil and military officials of the Eastern Han Dynasty in the hall. Some of them were inappropriate.
He Jin was surrounded by a group of officials, Liu Biao, Wang Kuang, Yuan Shao, and Wang Yun. Among them, Zhen Yan, the Zhen family, nodded slightly to Li Ling at first, and the others all tried to get angry.
Among the young generals, Yuan Shu also took the lead, but Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, who did not stop Li Ling outside the city, also went to the hall with Li Ling at this time, but they stood directly in the military officer queue.
There were about fifty civil and military officials in the hall. In addition to those with official positions, there were still hundreds of warriors wearing armor and soldiers. These warriors stood behind some officials like followers.
Obviously, no matter how much the warlords and military officers who were well-known to Liu Hong, who were familiar with Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, when Li Ling, a general who was born in a wild way, committed a shocking murder in the island country, Emperor Han Liu Hong had already taken absolute caution to him.
Because, powerful generals like Lu Bu were also standing behind Ding Yuan and going to the hall with him.
If that's all, it can only be said that Liu Hong is wary of Li Ling. When meeting a brave general who kills people, it is natural to take some precautions.
The Emperor of Han is different from the Emperor of the Island. He will not fall into trouble. Even if he is still scared, he will show his majesty when things come to an end. Well, do his best.
It is normal to prevent it, but in Li Ling's opinion, these people who are used to prevent him are not right.
Beside Liu Hong, in addition to the attendant Zhang Rang, there was also a sword-holder guarding him, and the sword-holder was Wang Yue.
Li Ling glanced at Wang Yue many times. This diving subordinate who had not appeared since he returned to the Eastern Han Dynasty, had a loyalty of 85 at this time, and his expression was as bad as eating something.
Outsiders didn't know that Wang Yue's eyes were wide open, his eyes twitched from time to time, and he was not afraid of looking at Li Ling. He was really brave and strong-willed.
But at this moment, Wang Yue was already crazy. It was so difficult, so it was so difficult. Finally, Liu Hong gave him a chance to show his face in the palace and in front of the civil and military officials in the court.
He is now standing beside His Majesty, holding a stegosaurus chaise, and his life is also a kind of round face. But... you didn't say you were going to do it.
I am not as good as my evil lord. This time, I will kill him in other areas and return with special kills. I am not enough for him to cut him down...
Wang Yue shouted in his heart, and there were still many people in the hall who changed their expressions and were helpless.
There are hundreds of generals guarding the palace holding golden hammers in the hall. These people are the guards in the palace, probably the generals like Wang Yue. In addition to these people, they are more than a hundred bravery.
These more than a hundred people obviously followed the officials in the court. Just like Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao and others, there are many such people supporting the field and showing off their power.
Ji Ling, Zhang Xun, Yan Liang and Wen Chou under Yuan Shu were recognized by Li Ling. Without thinking, it must be Liu Hong who agreed to bring his retainers and generals to the palace.
The great man has not known how many years he has not needed a powerful general to stand on the platform, nor does he know whether this behavior is Liu Hong's idea or He Jin's method.
What made Li Ling laugh and cry the most was that it was not time to be in a hurry. Although many court officials had family generals, among these powerful generals, Li Ling briefly checked that among the hundreds, at least forty or fifty people were holding their heads.
No matter how you look at it, it was all the soldiers and generals who went out to wander around Donglai.
These people are really capable. In just over a month, they actually became a powerful general who could be pulled out to stand in the middle of these officials and families?
But Li Ling didn't know if there was any conflict with Liu Hong, who did you plan to kill such a group of people?
Of course, Li Ling had a long agreement with them that they could try their best to meet on the battlefield, but judging from their appearance, it was obviously not so easy to fight with Li Ling.
Looking at Wang Yue at the top, looking at the soldiers and generals on both sides of the hall, looking at the civil and military affairs in the hall, Li Ling felt all kinds of strange things.
"Your Majesty, the island country is adjacent to our Han land across the sea, and most of its subjects have a jackal character. I went to the island country this time and killed the holy beasts of protecting the country, but I have gained some gains. I came to offer you to your Majesty." Li Ling told Liu Hong.
Compared to the meeting scenes of this dynasty meeting, Li Ling looked forward to meeting Liu Hong in private. But no matter what Liu Hong was worried about, obviously, Liu Hong hoped to contact him in front of all the civil and military young men in the dynasty.
Li Ling did not comment on this, and skipped the island country and directly explained the gifts.
"Oh? General Li is interested, the holy beasts of the island country? Did those holy beasts fall into treasure jade?" Liu Hong's eyes lit up and he asked Li Ling.
Liu Hong knew that he was in poor health and had known it for a long time, but he was used to indulging in life and hated the feeling of weakness and pain.
It is hard to say whether Nuwa jade can prolong life, but it is true that it can temporarily block the negative state of the body.
Before he thoroughly understands Li Ling's background, he will not ask for it unscrupulously. But Li Ling now mentioned it himself, and Liu Hong is quite looking forward to it.
"Your Majesty, the island country also has precious jade, but it is not Nuwa jade. The gauze jade fell over there, which is very similar to Nuwa jade. However, I dare not present this to Your Majesty for the things of the Gentiles." Li Ling said calmly.
It doesn’t matter whether the umami is given or not, but Liu Hong’s body is now so it’s not uncommon to kick his legs at any time.
If he was taken away by him, whether he kicked his legs by himself or was pulled by someone, Li Ling would probably be labeled as a hat.
Want this thing? Let’s take away our responsibilities first.
"Your Majesty, I have something that can increase the fortune of the Han Dynasty. If I want to offer it, it is this order of military order." Liu Hong was in a state of uncertainty, and Li Ling said to himself that a cloth bag tied on his belt contained many orders of military orders.
