Chapter 43 The Dignity of the Tang Dynasty

Is this old man Hou Junji here?

From the first day of his rebirth, Li Xiang knew that he couldn't get around this guy. He was also the core figure of Li Chengqian's rebellion group. He thought they would meet again in a few days, but he didn't expect to meet him today.

After Hou Junji received the report from his servant, he rushed over without stopping. Of course, it was not for his grandson, but for Prince Zatrk.

Everyone in the court knew that Hou Junji once led troops and was stationed on the border between Tang Dynasty and Tuyuhun. He had a good relationship with King Tuyuhun. The reason why Prince Zaterk came to the capital to study was inseparable from Hou Junji. Otherwise, how could his grandson mix with Zaterk?

Among the aristocratic children in the capital, although everyone does not discriminate against these barbarians, they still look down on them in their hearts. Except for necessary occasions, everyone will not mix with them, but the people in Hou Junji's family is an exception.

At this moment, Hou Junji, in addition to having the dignity of a duke, is also a Guanglu doctor and a minister of the Ministry of official affairs. He has reached the peak of his life. If he had not encouraged Li Chengqian to rebel, he should have died well.

According to the trend of history, Hou Junji should have had his family confiscated and exterminated at this moment, but because of Li Xiang's appearance, Li Chengqian did not become a deposed prince, so Hou Junji was not liquidated, and he was still a very humane General Hou. .

If it had been anyone else, Li Xiang would have come to salute early. These people are all Li Shimin's elders. The etiquette during the Zhenguan period was not that important. If Li Xiang stood still, I am afraid it would be true. .

But this man, like the King of Han Li Yuanchang, was registered with Li Shimin, so Li Xiang had nothing to be afraid of. If he hadn't appeared in Hou Junji's body that day, his head would have been missing. Should such a person still respect him? ?

What's more, his daughter, Princess Hou, has wanted to kill herself countless times. If such people don't pursue her, it would be really unfair for us as a time traveler.

Li Xiang straightened his back and put his hands behind his back. It was obvious that he was waiting for Hou Junji to come over to greet him.

Hou Junji frowned on his horse. He had already heard about Li Jing's visit to the East Palace that day. He was the Duke of the country like Li Jing, but Li Xiang gave Li Jing a big gift. At this moment Waiting for him to go over to see the gift is clearly saying that he is not as good as Li Jing.

But at this moment, in front of everyone, in addition to a large number of ordinary people around, there are also many officials from the Ministry of War standing here. If Hou Junji cannot get off his horse, he will be the final fault. Some officials and censors have long seen that he is not It's pleasing to the eye. If I take this opportunity to play him to the emperor, it will be a sure thing.

In desperation, Hou Junji could only get off his horse, and then bowed and saluted Li Xiang.

"I have met His Highness."

When Hou Junji said these words, his teeth were itching with hatred. If there were not so many people, even if Hou Junji just flashed past, Li Xiang would not be able to do anything to him. This was the situation during the Zhenguan period. Li Shimin shared the world with all the great heroes.

"Isn't this General Hou? I'm really sorry. I didn't see it just now. I should be saluting General Hou. If you follow the rules, I have to call you grandpa."

Li Xiang said politely, but he just bent over. If you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't be able to see this action at all. It was clear that he was not very respectful to this guy.

"Your Highness is serious. Isn't this Prince Zaturk? How did it happen like this? If you go to the vassal court to file a complaint, Your Highness will be in trouble. It is better for the minister to make peace. Your Highness shakes hands with the prince and makes peace. Bar?"

Hou Junji, an old fox, claimed to be on Li Xiang's side, but in fact he was reminding Prince Zatrk that you can go to the Lifan Yuan to file a complaint. During the Zhenguan period, if such a thing happened, the emperor would often They all want to punish their sons and grandsons.

It's like our children are at war with our neighbor's children. We can only say that our children should never talk about other people's children, otherwise it will appear that we are uneducated.

"I'm going to the Lifan Yuan to sue you. You beat my guards like this. Do you know who they are? They are all my warriors in Tuyuhun. Just wait for me now. I will never give up. When the time comes, I will kill you all..."

Zaterk usually cursed a lot, and almost said that he would kill Li Xiang's whole family, but Hou Junji glared at him. He didn't say what he said. If he wanted to talk about Li Xiang's whole family, including Li Shimin, Guilt must be taken into account. If you let Li Xiang catch this problem, even the King of Heaven and I will not be able to save you.

"It seems that the repair just now was not enough. Let me see how many teeth you still have in your mouth. I don't think people like you will need it in the future."

After Li Xiang finished speaking, he started to roll up his sleeves and looked like he was going to beat someone.

"Your Highness, you must not do this. This matter involves friendly countries..."

Hou Junji saw that he was being biased at first glance, so he quickly stopped Li Xiang, but Zaterk didn't have the strength anymore. Even after stopping Li Xiang, Zaterk didn't have the strength to come up and hit him. Just now After being kicked, all the bones in this guy's body were falling apart.

"General Hou really thinks a lot, and he is truly a role model for me."

Li Xiang snorted coldly, and everyone around him also understood the meaning of Li Xiang's words. Looking at Hou Junji's position at the moment, he was indeed suspected of being biased.

"How can I explain this? They are injured like this. They are all members of King Tuyuhun's tent. Tuyuhun Khan sent them to Chang'an. How should I explain it to him now?"

Hou Junji looked back at the people underground. These people were all followers of His Highness the Prince, and they were indeed close associates of Tuyuhun Khan. Except for one of them, the right hands of everyone else had been broken off, and many people were in pain. has fainted.

"What's there to worry about? Since King Gu has done this, he will never escape responsibility. What's more, Chang'an Wanmin has testified about what happened today. I didn't provoke it myself. I just passively defended and maintained the dignity of the Tang Dynasty. As the eldest son of the emperor's eldest grandson and crown prince, the lonely king has the responsibility and obligation to safeguard the majesty of the Tang Dynasty. A foreign traitor showed off his weapons at the yamen of the Ministry of War and spoke arrogantly, hurting our officials of the Tang Dynasty and humiliating our royal family of the Tang Dynasty. I cut off his hand. It’s already given Tuyuhun Khan face.”

Li Xiang's voice was very loud, and soon everyone around him heard it. Hou Junji frowned, this guy is very powerful, he can't be caught with a single crime, it's all credit...
