Who says sleep is not spiritual practice?

Chapter 279 Leaving the Station
Naturally, last night was not peaceful and Chang'an.

The 800 imperial guards, including the commander Dong Shen, were wiped out. The man in black who attacked the post left more than [-] corpses. It took [-] Anbei troops and [-] Xiong's guards to clean up the corpses and blood. One night time!

but……

In the eyes of many people, Jiang Qingyu, the son of the king who rejected the North, just slept all night and did nothing.

Under the protection of the servant girls Xiaoman, Jiang Langya, Jiang Shan and others, no matter how fierce the fighting outside was, how many people died, they could not disturb his clear dreams.

He was like a lucky dude who had no strength to restrain a chicken, but was surrounded by iron-clad soldiers and strange counselors who had to fight for him. It was not his turn to end, and someone would smooth everything out for him.

Therefore, when Jiang Qingyu walked out of the room, the dozen or so veterans of the Anxi Army who were in charge of guarding the station looked at him with strange eyes.

"This master can hold his breath. After such a big thing happened last night, he actually fell asleep until dawn!"

"A thousand-man imperial guards were all killed because of him, but he didn't show up immediately to pay the compensation, and he didn't even ask a question!"

"Why didn't you ask? Didn't you see last night? When thousands of men in black came to attack, General Jiang Langya found an excuse to take [-] An Beijun and [-] Xiong's guards to a village several miles away." Shoot empty arrows in the woods and let the imperial guards deal with the enemy alone! If there is no order behind all this, how would he dare to do so!"

"Tsk, so the deaths of the Thousand Imperial Guards have to be counted on the head of the Prince of Rejecting the North?"

"It's hard to say! The heir of the King of the North is about to enter the capital, and there will be a big incident. If you don't give enough explanation, then all the officials in the court will definitely criticize him!"

"Vocal and pen criticism... Hasn't the Jubei Palace received less verbal and pen criticism these years?"

"But this matter is too strange! We checked the corpses of those men in black, and without exception, their appearances were completely destroyed, making it difficult to find out their identities! In addition, these people do not seem to have come to assassinate His Royal Highness Otherwise, why bother to fight this Imperial Guard, but stop trying to break into the post station to assassinate?"

"Could it be that...you still suspect that His Royal Highness personally arranged this group of men in black?"

"That's not true! The anonymous letter made it clear that this group of thieves and bandits were hired by the dignitaries of the capital. If the Prince of the North could escape the detection of the eagles and dogs and bring a thousand dead men here, then it would not be just Used to destroy a Praetorian Guard."

"That makes sense. But then again, a thousand imperial guards were killed in battle protecting His Royal Highness, but his personal guards watched from the sidelines, and no one was killed or injured! If this matter spreads to the capital, I'm afraid that the five hundred An Beijun He and the three hundred guards of the Xiong family will be severely punished! Maybe they will have to be buried with him!"

"Yes, Your Majesty has always distinguished rewards and punishments. Those who have made merit will be rewarded more, and those who have done wrong will be punished heavily!"

……

While the old soldiers were whispering, Huang Pu, the postman, bowed and stood on one side, and asked respectfully to Jiang Qingyu who was walking slowly:

"Breakfast has been prepared, simple tea and light meals, please don't dislike it, Your Highness."

Jiang Qingyu smiled and shook her head slightly:

"Thank you, Master Huang, for your hard work."

"But I don't need breakfast. There are many people waiting for me in the capital right now. I'm late, I'm afraid some people will not be able to wait!"

Huang Pu smiled wryly, glanced outside, lowered his head and reminded in a faint voice:
"Your Highness, regarding what happened last night, I have truthfully written a report and submitted it to Beijing, so when His Highness arrives in the capital, His Majesty may be reprimanded by His Majesty."

"Your Highness, please forgive me for this point. As a postman and as a minister of Chu, this is the duty of a subordinate official."

Jiang Qingyu smiled:
"Master Huang is loyal, why is he guilty?"

"Last night, when you came to my room, you must have heard something in advance. Are you going to protect me with death? I should thank you!"

Huang Pu laughed at himself:
"Your Highness laughed."

"Last night there were thousands of attackers. If Commander Dong and the Imperial Guards were not desperate to stop them, we, a dozen or so bad old men, wouldn't be able to defend the station!"

"Besides, we didn't kill anyone at all, we just helped to do some aftermath."

Jiang Qingyu remained silent.

The next moment, he raised his legs and walked out, and walked out of the station step by step accompanied by everyone.

And when he walked out of the gate of the post station, he stopped abruptly.

Because at this moment, the door is already full of corpses, and there is little place to stay!

One thousand imperial guards, eight hundred men in black, and nearly two thousand corpses lying neatly on the ground, this scene is very moving.

"Ugh……"

Beside him, Huang Pu couldn't help sighing.

Although I was used to seeing corpses on the battlefield when I was young, let alone thousands of people, I have seen tens of thousands of corpses and seas of blood several times, but today when I see thousands of corpses lined up in one place , he still felt a wave of ups and downs.

"Basically all of these thousand imperial guards are the children of the rich and powerful, and all of them died in one night. I'm afraid that every mansion in the capital will be full of people, and the crying will continue!"

"Your Highness, this time you have offended all the dignitaries in the city!"

Apparently, Huang Pu was reminding Jiang Qingyu to beware of revenge from the dignitaries after entering Beijing.

"Is it?"

Jiang Qingyu sneered:
"The dignitaries in the capital should have received the news a long time ago, why didn't anyone come to claim the corpse?"

"And what about our Majesty? Why didn't you send someone to investigate the situation?"

"This……"

Huang Pu frowned, unable to figure out what the other party was implying.

"Come on!"

Jiang Qingyu suddenly called out.

"Your Highness."

Yu An, who was guarding the gate of the post station, took a step forward, bowed his head, and waited for the order.

Jiang Qingyu ordered:

"Commander Dong Shen and his thousand imperial guards were all killed last night while guarding the station. This son deeply regrets this and also expresses his deep admiration!"

"Thousands of men in black besieged the station, leaving behind [-] corpses. For the dead, death is not a pity. As for the living, in the name of your son, you go to spend a lot of money on the building to offer a reward for their heads. If you want to see people, you will die." To see the corpse!"

"Also, ask them to investigate the origins and identities of these people, especially the masterminds behind the scenes, they must be found out! This prince will find out these shady rats one by one, and get rid of this disaster for the Chu country!"

Yu An glanced at Xiaoman, the servant girl beside Jiang Qingyu, thinking that His Royal Highness is probably acting, otherwise...

His own maid is Huamanlou's high-level executives, and along the way, at least dozens of Huamanlou assassins with extraordinary strength have been escorting him. If he wants Huamanlou to kill a few people and find out the identity of the man in black, it's just casual Is it a matter of one sentence?Do you need to speak loudly to yourself in front of so many people?
"Subordinates obey!"

"This subordinate will issue a reward in the name of His Highness, and find out the mastermind at all costs!"

"..."

On the side, Huang Pu couldn't help frowning slightly when he saw this.

If what the anonymous letter said is true, then behind this group of men in black are probably all the dignitaries in the capital, or even the person in the capital himself.

It's fine if Jiang Qingyu can't find anything, if anything happens, I'm afraid there will be another good show in the capital!

In fact, he also couldn't figure out why the men in black hired by the rich and powerful were supposed to act in a scene with the imperial guards, but how it turned out to be red-eyed, and even sent a thousand imperial guards including Dong Shen All the soldiers were killed!
That's Dong Shen!Emperor Jing Hongshen's trusted minister, who was expected to enter the Sunshine Realm in this life, died outside a post station within a hundred miles of the capital!

Absurd and ridiculous!

It can only be said that the thoughts of the people behind the scenes are really hard to fathom.

but……

Huang Pu himself didn't want to get stuck in it anymore.

He believes that in this matter, he has done enough to be conscientious and benevolent.

When Jiang Qingyu and his party left the station, no matter what happened afterwards, he would not have to take responsibility.

Although he admired the son of the King of Rejecting Beidi to subdue Beidi, made great achievements in opening up the territory and adding another state to Chu State, but the other party's behavior last night showed a hint of treason!

Sit back and watch a thousand imperial guards be killed, this is not what a qualified Chu minister should do!
And Huang Pu is a veteran of the Anxi Army, and he has the grace of the emperor, so naturally he will not do anything rebellious in order to reject the Northern Palace!
At this time, Jiang Qingyu had already started to lift her feet, walked through the narrow gap between the corpses, and arrived at the carriage parked tens of feet away.

He didn't deliberately pull his robe or avoid the pool of blood, so that when he walked to the carriage, his white robe was stained with a lot of blood, looking like he had gone through a fierce battle.

"What a group of loyal people!"

Jiang Qingyu walked up to the coachman, stood in front, looked back at the densely packed corpses, and couldn't help sighing in a low voice:
"It's a pity that no matter how loyal you are, you are just abandoned children in the eyes of some people."

He paused, and suddenly said loudly:

"The order is passed on, the five hundred Anbei Army will dismount and walk, and give up the horses to transport the corpses!"

"I want to bring these nearly 2000 corpses back to the capital! Let everyone in the world take a good look. It's not just the soldiers on the four sides of the border who are brave enough to die, the imperial guards in the capital are also willing to spare their lives!"

This statement came out.

Not far behind, Huang Pu bowed his body to see him off at the gate of the post station and couldn't help but tremble all over.

What is this prince going to do?
Bringing the body of the Imperial Guard back to the capital is fine, it can be seen as an expression of goodwill to the dignitaries, but the man in black...

The identities of this group of people are suspicious, and the dignitaries and even the emperor Jing Hong are involved behind them!

Jiang Qingyu brought these more than 800 corpses into Beijing in a grand manner. Is he going to confront the powerful in public, or is he going to tear his face directly with the emperor?

Huangpu didn't dare to think deeply.

Right now, he only hoped that Jiang Qingyu would leave the inn early so that he and others could get out of this muddy water!
……

at the same time.

In the capital city, in a study room in the imperial palace.

The eunuch Yan Songyu was reporting the situation to a man in a yellow dragon robe.

　I originally wanted to write [-] words, but my hands hurt too much.I don't understand why my arms and arms still hurt so much!

　　There is another chapter before twelve o'clock in the evening.
