Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 214 What is the matter (Part [-])
Nearly ten riders rode their horses from the direction of Jianxinzhai in the northwest corner of the capital, like the vanguard of the battle, they kicked up the dust behind their horses and rushed straight to Xizhimen.Although these people are dressed as family servants, if you look closely, they are all dressed in brocade clothes and mink fur, and they have a very rich and domineering air. The soldiers guarding the city of Xizhimen were about to step forward to stop them, but the group of knights shouted angrily first. speak out.

"The members of Cheng Guogong's family returned to Beijing to report urgently, let me get out of the way!"

"The servants of the British government have returned to Beijing to report urgently, let me get out of the way!"

"The disciples of Dingguo's mansion returned to Beijing to report urgently, let me get out of the way!"

"Marquis Linhuai..."

"Marquis Zhenyuan..."

"Marquis of Fengcheng..."

"..."

The soldiers defending the city were too shocked to go forward, turned their heads and whispered to the officer leading the team: "General Banner, look at this..."

The general flag was only in his thirties, at this moment his throat moved, and he said with difficulty: "Let it go, let them go."

The guarding soldier nodded first, then hesitated for a moment, and asked for instructions: "But we haven't checked the customs and badges yet, in case the superiors ask, is it a bit..."

"Crack!" The general flag slapped, pretending to slap the soldier's hat half-truthfully, and said angrily: "Blind your mother's dog eyes? Check what? Among the group of people just now, that Didn’t you see who the leader is? That’s Mr. Zheng Wu who is serving Young Mr. Yingzhen in Cheng Guogong’s mansion!"

Another young soldier who was only seventeen or eighteen years old was a little unconvinced, and asked: "It's just a servant of Duke Cheng's mansion. If he barges in so ostentatiously, he won't be afraid of being bumped into by the patrolling censor and provoked by Duke Cheng." Trouble?"

"Hehe? I said Li Shan'er. If I remember correctly, it was your elder brother who passed the exam for the Master of Talent, but not your boy who passed the exam for Master of Talent, right? Huh? What's the matter, is there a Master of Talent in the family? Speaking of Do you have an old-fashioned taste in your words?" The general flag narrowed his eyes and stared at the young soldier, curled his lips and said, "Master Yushi is very powerful, but which master Yushi has nothing to do, take it as the Duke of the State?" What's more, Duke Cheng is an honorable leader who has always been in charge of the defense of the capital. Do you dare to say that it is not for urgent military affairs if his servants report urgently? If you delay a major event, how many heads do you have? rise?"

This reason seems to be very reasonable, and the surrounding soldiers all responded, and the general flag was even more proud, pointing Jiangshan and said to Li Shan'er: "Boy, if it wasn't for your father's sake, I wouldn't be bothered." Teach you: Although Master Xuncheng Yushi has a big board, he can't hit people like you and me on the buttocks, but Duke Cheng is different, let alone the old man, even his grandson Ying Zhenxiao Grandpa, I said that I want to skin you today, and your stinky skin will definitely not last forever!"

When he said this, he snorted coldly: "Do you know why? Because we are all fucking people from the Beijing camp, and the Duke Cheng, the British Duke, and the Dingguo are the ones who have not been seen in our Beijing camp for a hundred years." The leader of the change! Damn, it’s the Shanzhai horse bandit, the head of the family wants to kill a small thieves, isn’t it just a matter of one sentence, let alone those of us who have been soldiers for generations? How dare you offend them? Haha , boy, it doesn't matter if you seek death yourself, don't drag us so many people to give you a back, we men, but we still have to point to Duke Cheng and the others to reward us with food!"

The soldier who spoke first saw Zongqi getting more and more angry, afraid that Li Shan'er would suffer, so he stood up to smooth things over and said, "Master Zongqi calm down, it's only been two or three months since Li Shan'er came over with his father, what?" If you don't understand anything, don't be as knowledgeable as a brat like him, you won't! Besides, Zongqi, don't you think the situation just now is a bit strange?"

The general flag wanted to reprimand him at first, but the soldier in front of him was always cunning and usually quite clever. When he asked this question, he managed to divert the general flag's attention, and subconsciously asked, "What's so strange? Fan Laoer, what are you doing?" Speak clearly."

The second Fan hurriedly said: "General Banner, have you always noticed that just now these masters reported their family names, but they almost reported all the honorable ministers in our Beijing camp!"

"Oh?" The Zongqi turned his eyes and said in surprise, "It really is! But, what does this mean...?"

Fan Laoer said: "Do you still remember that in the morning, the master attendant from Gaoge's hometown also beat us out? And the young master from Linhuaihou's family from Nanjing also beat us Live here?"

Zongqi was a little confused: "So what?"

Fan Lao Er said: "At noon, I went to eat. I heard from the Daxing Zuowei that Young Master Yingzhen and Yuan Gong went out through Deshengmen at about that time."

Zongqi waved his hand: "I'm the left guard of Yongqing, just focus on Xizhimen, I don't know what's going on with the left guard in Daxing... But even if it is, so what?"

Fan Laoer quickly explained: "General Banner, think about it, these two groups of people combined, isn't it just the young men who were served by this group of gentlemen just took them out? It's just the little master who waited! "

"Huh? Don't tell me, it's true." The Zongqi finally understood what Fan Lao Er meant, but he still felt that he was still missing something, so he asked, "Could it be that something happened to them? Why didn't Gao Shidu send anyone back?"

Fan Laoer lowered his eyebrows and said in a calm manner: "Zongqi asked a good question. It seems that Master Zongqi also thinks that this matter must have something to do with serving the young master, and it must be a major event. Otherwise, there will only be three spring outings. Around the hour, why did you send people back in a hurry?"

"Ah? Ah, yes, yes, I think so too..." Zong Qi pretended to ponder, held back a little, and couldn't help asking: "But what big things can Gao Shidu do? He is The crown prince is reading with you, and he is not Da Sima, so he should have nothing to do with the lords above us."

Then Li Shan'er couldn't stand it anymore, and said angrily: "That Gao Shidu is a civil servant, and he is the author of the "Long Wen Whip Shadow" that has been widely rumored in the capital recently, but it is impossible for him to go with these young princes. , Xiao Houye can only talk about poetry and painting for other things. This high-ranking servant has become very famous recently. In addition to paving the way for the prince and his ministers with the book "Longwen Whip Shadow", the two most famous One thing, one is to help Liu Zongrong quell the banditry in Bailixia, and the other is to offer soap to Grandpa Long Live..."

After hearing this, Zongqi nodded his head pretending to be clever: "Your boy is finally smart for a while, it seems that Gao Shidu has mentioned the matter of suppressing bandits to the young master and the others."

He took it for granted that Gao Yushi was only looking for a group of honorable children to talk about military matters.

Fan Laoer smiled wryly in his heart, but still squeezed out a smile, and said: "Zongqi is right. But..." Everyone knows that after words like "but" and "but" are finished, the real truth is. The point is, even the general banner has realized that he must have guessed wrong, but after all, he can't lose face in front of his subordinates, so he coughed dryly and said: "However, it is also a big deal to offer soap, maybe it has something to do with the incident just now related?"

Fan Laoer heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said: "The general flag is clear, that's exactly the case."

　I’ve been driving long distance all day, and I’m exhausted. There is supposed to be another chapter tonight, but I’m extremely sleepy now. I don’t know if Chapter 2 will be finished after 12 o’clock. You’d better not wait, just read it tomorrow.
