Indefinite City Lord

Chapter 13

From the pale sky came galloping three steeds,

The strong wind brought down countless crumbling autumn dew!
Looking at the gradually clear outline of the city in the distance,
The three horses stopped together!

Wang Hui and She Feng came to Huairong for the first time.
When you see the city wall that seems to extend to the sky in the distance,
Both of them couldn't help but let out an admiration!
Although Jin Ming lived in Huai Rong since childhood,
But this time I left for more than three months,

As soon as I came back, it was a novelty to look at Huai Rong in the morning light!
After admiring,

The three rode their horses and continued towards the city gate.

……

There was already a long line of people waiting at the gate of the city.

There are laws and regulations in Wangcheng Huairong,

Non-emergency business is not allowed to ride wild,
So the three of them also got off their horses when they reached the gate of the city.
First, I ate something casually at a breakfast stall outside the city gate.

Then he led the horse and followed the flow of people in front of him towards the Dexing Gate.

……

……

In Huairong City with a population of hundreds of thousands,
The streets and alleys of the market are now full of armored guards patrolling the city.

So many sergeants on patrol,
It's not a big mess,
It's just because the once-in-a-decade grand meeting to encircle and suppress the southern stocking land is about to begin.

As early as half a year ago,
The imperial court has spread all over the country,

Recruit ranger heroes,

He even explicitly proposed to form a Ranger Legion that has never existed before,

All levels of generals and schools are served by rangers who have excelled in martial arts examinations.

So Su shoots everywhere,

As well as Dongshi, Qinjin, Wulin, and Shifang Siguo, which are attached to Sushe,
Tens of thousands of ranger squires flocked,
In order to gain fame and fortune,
Filling the already bustling Huai Rong City into even more lively.

But as the saying goes: These outsiders who are too hot-blooded to break the ban with martial arts,

In Huairong City, in addition to venting excess energy through brothels, Jiaofang, and Goulan,
Wine tables and streets are also the main places to vent.

Therefore, while bringing prosperity to Huai Rong,

It also brought unprecedented security challenges.

……

Jin Junen, the prime minister of Huairong Mansion, is dealing with the briefings gathered from all over the city today.
From time to time, I have to drink herbal tea to calm myself down.

"My lord, this is the briefing sent over at noon today!"

The clerk put a thick stack of briefing papers on Jin Junen's desk.

"Have you read it?"

Kim Jun-eun saw the new briefing on the table half the height of a person,
Eyelids visibly twitched,
But he quickly forced himself to calm down again.

"Read it, my lord."

The clerk said,
"These are the rest that need to be read again by you, my lord."

"Good! This year is the year of the Southern Expedition,
It is also time for Your Majesty to test our abilities.

It's time to repay Jun's kindness! "

I took a sip of herbal tea,
Jin Junen rubbed his swollen temples and continued.

"These warriors who poured into the city,
Don't dare to make trouble on weekdays,
At this time, relying on the connivance of the king,
Some people go too far!
For those who are self-respecting and disobedient!
It should be caught, it should be killed!

Hold on for another ten days, and when the recruitment for the martial arts test is over,

I can rest for a while! "

"Yes, I understand!"

The clerk responded, and then continued.

"In addition, there is a briefing from the city guard of Dexingmen, you can read it first!"

"Huh?" Jin Junen glanced at the clerk,
Then I saw a briefing at the top,
After a brief look, it was placed at the bottom.

"My lord!" Seeing Jin Junen put the briefing at the bottom, the clerk wanted to remind him aloud.

"It's okay, you go down first!"

He waved his hand and asked the clerk to go down,
Kim Jun-eun was buried in the briefing again.

……

Until dusk, the golden light shone through the hollow window frame on Jin Junen's case,
The backlog of briefings is finally being processed,

It made Jin Junen, who was often unable to go home because of working late into the night, feel brighter these days.

When turning to the last briefing again,
Only then did Jin Junen lift up his relaxed spirit just now,

I saw a few lines of small characters written on it.

"At the hour of the second day, the three rangers were domineering,

One son claimed to be Jin Ming, the son of Master Jin, the prime minister, and broke into the door of virtue,
Now the three have been captured by the city guards,
Report to the Prime Minister for a decision.

Mr. Wangfu Cheng personally verified it!
——Shiqian Bao, the city guard of Dexing Gate. "

The last two lines of small words made Jin Junen frowned.

When I watched it for the first time,
Kim Jun-eun already knew about it,

But he has honed his official career for almost 20 years,
The skill of nourishing Qi has long been perfected.

In the royal city, even though he is a fourth-rank mansion with real power,
But as long as there is a Passover,

There are also countless people who want him to die without a place to bury him.

The most poisonous thing is the human heart!
This is the most valuable experience left to Jin Junen by the previous Prime Minister.

If it's just a normal briefing,
An unqualified little city guard only needs to summarize the events of the day,
Although this time it was because his son seemed to have violated the law,
But there is no need to add that line of fine print.

Jin Junen thought about it when he was reviewing the briefing just now,
Already vaguely have some clues about this matter.

Marked with a red pen on all presentations,

After a brief review,

Kim Jun-eun summoned the clerk,

Let them distribute these briefings for implementation.

Then put the briefing of the city guard Wei Shiqian in his sleeve,
Walked out of the gate of the office.

"grown ups!"

The yamen servant outside the government office saw Jin Junen going out,
Immediately someone came forward and waited.

"Prepare the chariots and horses and go to the Dexingmen Garrison Camp." Jin Junen said.

Sitting in the carriage, Jin Junen took advantage of the moment,
While closing his eyes and resting his mind, he sorted out the things in the briefing.

The generals and schools at all levels of the four gates of Wangcheng are all affiliated to the Sushe military.

It is a unit under General Qianniuwei,

General Qianniuwei is a second-rank military general in the court.

……

Su She civil and military side by side court,

In order to prevent the civil and military from arrogating power, under the supervision and secret assistance of the king,

The intersection of the two factions has never dared to be too much.

As a civil servant, I have nothing to do with the second-rank general of the court.

Of course, it must not be Qianniuwei's other third-rank generals or Wangcheng's first-class guards.

Thinking about it, there is only one possibility.

"I didn't expect that after such a long time, that man still hates me. He really wants to die."

Jin Junen opened his eyes and looked at the tall and dark city gate not far from the carriage.

Violence flashed across his face.

Another cup of tea kung fu,
Jin Junen's carriage and horses stopped outside the gate of the Dexingmen guard camp.

Several huge braziers on both sides illuminate the inside and outside of the gate extremely brightly.

The driver stopped the car,

Jin Junen, who had recovered his calm expression, ordered the servants at the side to go to the Yuanmen to communicate.

The guards who came with the car handed over the tokens of the office to the soldiers on duty outside the gate of the garrison camp.

"Please pass it on to the general."

The soldier on duty glanced at the token handed over, and then at the carriage.

"just wait!"

The soldier walked back to the barracks indifferently.

Jin Junen sat in the carriage, not in a hurry.

I closed my eyes and rested my mind.

Soon!

"Your Majesty Jin is here to welcome you!"

The heroic laughter came from the direction of the barracks,
Jin Junen opened his eyes, slowly got up and walked out of the carriage.

Seeing Jin Junen getting out of the carriage and about to get off the ground,
The one that came out was eight feet long,
Rough and tall, thick-browed and steel-bearded man,
Suddenly, he pulled the horsewhip in his hand towards several gatekeepers around him.

While beating and cursing.

"A bunch of trash, seeing Master Jin's frame here,
Don't rush to let them in.

Are you waiting for Lao Tzu to move the door and lift the halberd for you?

Dog eyes don't know how to look! "

Jin Junen frowned slightly, but did not make a sound.

With the support of the yamen servant, he got off the carriage.

"General Du, I haven't seen you for a long time, are you still a dark cloud dragon?"

Kim Jun-eun said with a smile.

According to legend, a military general in Wangcheng had developed limbs since he was a child, and was superb in martial arts.
It's just that I'm really lacking in intelligence.
It is quite poetic to actually write Wu Yunchanglong as a black cloud and a blue dragon.

It was passed down as a laughing stock by Wang Cheng for a while.

It's just that Kim Jun-eun said so,
General Du Min on the opposite side did not hear the difference in tone,
He walked over carelessly and pulled Jin Junen up to go to the barracks.

As a gentle civil servant, Kim Jun-eun,
Immediately full of disgust,

Wanting to get rid of Dou Min's arms,
However, with Dumin's supernatural power, how could Jin Junen resist.

In desperation, Jin Junen could only scold loudly.

"General Du, don't be presumptuous!
I am a civil official, how can I enter the barracks indiscriminately.

If Prince Huai and General Zheng know about it, how will you explain it! "

Prince Huai Duanmuyi is General Qianniuwei,
Zheng Zemin is a dignified third-rank general such as Qianniuwei First General,
It is the immediate boss of this fourth rank general Du Min.

Jin Junen scolded hurriedly,
Finally, the overly "enthusiastic" Dou Min calmed down.

"Oh! If you don't tell me, I almost forgot!"

General Du suddenly realized while touching his oily steel whiskers.

"It's okay, it's okay! The general seems to be waiting impatiently for me."

Jin Junen said casually, looking at Do Min who showed a little panic,
An imperceptible sneer flashed across Jin Junen's face.

"General Du, I'm here on business this time.

Didn't mean to bother you. "Jin Junen said.

"Oh, what is Master Jin doing?"

Du Min asked enthusiastically.

"I'm here to check the case with Wei Shiqian, the guard of the Dexing Gate.

Please ask the general to find a pawn and report it. "Jin Junen said.

"Such a trivial matter, Mr. Jin, wait a moment,
I'm going to call him over for Mr. Jin to be obedient! "

Do Min said to Jin Junen.

It didn't matter that Jin Junen quickly walked into the gate of the barracks and disappeared.

Looking at the back of the disappearing man,
The four yamen servants beside Jin Junen all let out a sigh of relief.

……

General Du Min is a fourth-rank general who guards the first gate of Wangcheng.

As long as you are a resident of the royal city,

We all know this - General Steelbeard Tiger,

"Steelbearded Tiger" is Du Min's nickname.

Du Min is from a family of military generals, and he is very capable.
It is rumored that when he was a teenager, he single-handedly killed a man-eating tiger in Dongguang Town, Northwest China.

Later, because he cherished his beard very much,
So people gave him the majestic nickname of Steel Beard Tiger.

It is different from the elegant name of the literati,

The general's nickname is their pride!

In addition, apart from his own reasons, what made Du Min famous,
He has the most enviable younger brother in the world,
While admiring Dou Min's martial arts,
People like to talk about his brother,
The only Martial God in Su She Kingdom today,
The only champion——Du Shiyan.

……

Feeling the emotional changes of the four yamen servants around me,

Jin Junen didn't care.

Even with a lot of strength, a warrior without a brain, what is there to be afraid of!

Wasn't this man just teased by himself in the palm of his hand?

　When you are frustrated, you need to guard against wolves, tigers and leopards, and when you are proud, you must guard against insidious villains.

　　One is bright and the other is dark!
