Escort All of Them Back to the Palace
Facing the chaos in Hongfu Temple, Lantian County Magistrate wanted to intervene, but what could he do?
Who were the people fighting on the field?
Among the sons of the most powerful high-ranking officials in Chang 'an, there were the sons of the most silkpants and even the most royal relatives, such as Chai Shaowu, the son of the prime minister, Fang Jun, and so on. There were four or five sons of the Duke.
What about the onlookers?
His Majesty's beloved King Wei, Li Tai, Fang clan's womenfolk including mistress Lu shi, when these people were added together, he, Lantian County, was not even an ant in front of them!
Could he suppress these people and punish them?
Of course not, so he could only watch. At this moment, a series of messy footsteps came from outside. The leader was a tall and burly youth in embroidered clothes. Before he could approach the battle, he roared,"You even dare to disturb Fang clan's auntie, I see you are courting death, beat them up!”
After that person finished shouting, he took the lead and rushed towards the crowd. The people behind him did not show any weakness and followed him. It did not matter if they were bailiffs or servants. It was impossible to tell which family they were from. They beat up everyone they saw. The entire scene once again fell into a full-scale chaotic battle.
Just as the Lantian County Magistrate was helplessly roaring at the battlefield, the sound of footsteps could be heard. A group of soldiers dressed in black armor rushed up. The Lantian County Magistrate was furious. Which family had even joined in?
Just as he was about to curse, he realized that the tall and strong general in the lead was staring at him coldly. He couldn't bring himself to curse anymore. His legs went soft and he said in a trembling voice,"Li... General Li…"
Unable to speak, Li Junxian coldly said,"Lantian County Magistrate, facing a large-scale brawl in the temple, you have done nothing and have seriously neglected your duties. I will report this to His Majesty.”
After that, he did not look at the county magistrate who was lying on the ground anymore. He looked at the chaotic scene in the field and ordered coldly,"According to His Majesty's decree, capture them all!”
The people fighting in the battlefield were merely servants. How could they compare to these fully armed and murderous Imperial Army soldiers?
The chaotic scene was forcibly pulled apart by the Imperial Army. Anyone who resisted would be smashed with their sabers and dragged away after falling to the ground. Some of them did not hear clearly that these Imperial Army soldiers were acting on orders and shouted,"How dare you? Do you know who I am?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Imperial Army soldier next to him expressionlessly slapped the man's face with his scabbard. His teeth were smashed, and blood mixed with saliva flowed out of his mouth. Now, everyone on the field finally knew what they were facing, and they couldn't be more obedient.
Li Junxian scanned the crowd. The King of Wei hadn't stepped up, so he was still quite rational. Chai Lingwu's clothes were covered in snow, and he had probably rolled on the ground a few times. There was blood on his nose, and he looked quite disheveled. It was unknown who had hit him.
When he saw that Fang Jun's clothes were not messed up, his body was not dirty at all, and even his hair was not messed up, he thought that this kid looked like a general.
After sweeping his gaze over them, Li Junxian turned to these silkpants and loudly declared,"Under His Majesty's orders, all those who fought were escorted into the palace. Everyone, cooperate.”
These silkpants didn't show any fear on their faces. If they entered the palace, then so be it. They wouldn't do anything to them. The group of people stood in a row with the Imperial Army as if they were on an outing. The two groups even started to bicker and exchange a few words with each other.
Fang Jun smiled at Li Siwen and the others who had come to help."Thank you for today. I'll treat you to a drink in a few days!”
Li Siwen and Fang Jun could be considered old friends. He punched Fang Jun on the shoulder and scolded him jokingly,"Since when have you been polite to me? You don't treat me as your brother, do you? I'll drink you to death another day!"
The two of them smiled at each other, patted their shoulders, and followed the team.
Li Junxian's head ached as he watched the profligate sons of the wealthy curse at each other. After all, they were all descendants of noble families, so he couldn't go too far. He thought to himself,"These bastards are still so relaxed in cursing. Let's see if they still have the strength to do so later!"
Fang Jun's mother, Lu shi, walked over to Li Junxian and gave him a slight bow. Li Junxian didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly returned the bow. In front of this Madam Fang, he had no right to put on airs.
"General Li, I hope that you will be able to see through today's matter. My son Fang Jun was in the wrong, but the source of today's matter was indeed the King of Wei saying something he shouldn't have.”
Consort Han naturally wouldn't sit idly by either. She echoed,""That's right, as a prince, Prince Wei flirted with my Fang clan's women, is this what a prince should do?”
Li Junxian helplessly replied,"This lowly official can only arrest people on orders. I don't have the authority to investigate or deal with this matter. Please forgive me, but His Majesty will know the cause of this matter. His Majesty will make the final decision, so you can rest assured."”
Lu shi could only nod her head, believing that the Emperor was wise and would not be unable to see the truth.
