Chapter 185 Cut, make a decision!

Chapter 194 Cut, make a decision!
Chen Xuanli was also a little angry, he waved his hands and said in a deep voice, "Qiu Le is following the orders of my general, and this general is following the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Jian Guo... With all these things, I hope the governor will look after me. On the face of His Royal Highness, don't go too far, and do things to the extreme."

Chen Xuanli said in his heart, don't make things too extreme.If you do it absolutely, how can this great general be afraid of you, a weak child?
Zhang Xuan smiled coldly.

If Chen Xuanli hadn't mentioned Prince Li Heng, the anger in Zhang Xuan's heart could be suppressed a bit.When he used the banner of Li Heng to threaten Zhang Xuan, Zhang Xuan's murderous intent became extremely strong.

At this moment, Zhang Xuan suddenly discovered that this incident seemed to be a test for him by Prince Li Heng.If he takes a step back, Li Heng will definitely take a step forward in the future.

It seems that before he left Chang'an, Li Heng couldn't wait to clear his influence in Chang'an.

Zhang Xuan slowly turned his head to stare at Qiu Le, his eyes gradually became cold and hard.

He didn't have to kill Qiu Le, but now, Qiu Le had to die.He has become a prop to kill others.

Zhang Xuan waved his hand slowly.

Feng Changqing immediately sent several soldiers to replace Yang Jinhua, and escorted Qiu Le back.

"Governor Zhang! Show mercy!" Seeing that Zhang Xuan was going to be serious, Chen Xuanli couldn't help but shouted hastily, with an extremely gloomy expression.

The hundreds of Dongdu imperial guards who had been disarmed and knelt on the ground stared dumbfounded at Zhonglang escorting Qiu Le into the opponent's formation. They were kicked by another soldier and knelt on the ground with a plop. A jerk strode forward with a sharp Mo knife in his hand and stood behind him.

All the imperial guards of Dongdu subconsciously turned their heads to look at Chen Xuanli.

Qiu Le broke out in a cold sweat. He looked up at Chen Xuanli in despair, and screamed, "General, what is the crime of following orders?"

"General, save the last general!"

There was a dead silence at the scene, the breeze blew, and the flags fluttered, taking away the dense murderous intent.The rapid panting of a group of soldiers was heard endlessly, and several war horses occasionally raised their heads and neighed, breaking the strange silence again.

Qiu Le's cry of mourning echoed throughout the audience, and the soldiers of the Imperial Guards of the Eastern Capital felt distressed and felt the same; while the guards of the Habayashi under Gu Xi's command were excited, their swords were unsheathed, and a wild red light flashed on their sturdy faces .

"Zhang Xuan, you are determined to kill the court officials without authorization. This general will definitely read a book for you in front of His Highness the Crown Prince Jian Guo!" In front of so many soldiers, Zhang Xuan did not give any face, Chen Xuanli couldn't help but Furious, he pointed at Zhang Xuan and said angrily, "This general is here, who dares to touch the generals of a certain family? Who dares to touch!"

"I dare to move. Feng Changqing!" Zhang Xuan said lightly.

Feng Changqing's heart was agitated, he thought that Zhang Xuan was just putting on a show, but unexpectedly Zhang Xuan really wanted to kill the General Zhonglang under the bid of Chen Xuanli, the General of Longwu of the Imperial Guard of the Eastern Capital.

Although Zhang Xuan's voice was deep and deep, Feng Changqing could already hear the murderous intent and determination without hesitation.

Feng Changqing breathed a sigh of relief, and shouted loudly, "Get ready with swords and axes! All the troops obey the order. If anyone resists or disrespects the command of the commander-in-chief, he will be killed without mercy!"

"Here!" The guards of the Habayashi responded abruptly, stepped forward, and surrounded Chen Xuanli and the hundreds of Dongdu imperial guards, while the 500 cavalry brought by Feng Changqing were on horseback, readying their bows and arrows. ready to go.

"Zhang Xuan...you...presumptuous!" Chen Xuanli was so angry that he was trembling all over, he could hardly control his figure, and he was about to fall to the ground from the horse.

Without even looking at Chen Xuanli, Zhang Xuan raised his hand and waved it lightly.

Feng Changqing narrowed his eyes and shouted, "Cut, make a decision!"

The executioner, who had already stood behind Qiu Le and raised his butcher's knife, swung his knife to kill him immediately.With a flash of blood, Qiu Le didn't have time to let out a miserable cry, and his head fell to the ground, rolling on the ground wrapped in a pool of dark red blood.

Many Dongdu imperial guards wailed, fell to the ground and wept bitterly.

Chen Xuanli closed his eyes, and shouted angrily, "Son Zhang Xuan, don't be too arrogant! This general will never forget today's humiliation! Just wait!"

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly, "I am waiting for General Chen."

……

……

Chen Xuanli went into the palace in a rage.If he hadn't maintained a semblance of reason today, with his style and personality, he would have summoned all the troops to fight Zhang Xuan's Habayashi Guard to the death.

But Zhang Xuan wished he couldn't do this.If Chen Xuanli dared to gather troops and horses to besiege Yu Linwei, Zhang Xuan would have enough reasons to kill Chen Xuanli.

Feng Changqing walked over with big strides, hesitated for a moment and said softly, "Commander, how about going to the palace to explain today's events to His Royal Highness? If the villain Chen Xuanli is allowed to file a complaint first, we..."

Zhang Xuan shook his head indifferently, "The imperial guards of the Eastern Capital were provocative, which led to a mutiny in the barracks. The matter is urgent. I punished a Zhonglang general according to the law, which is not beyond my authority. Then let Chen Xuanli go to the palace to file a complaint. Report it, I want to see if His Highness the Crown Prince will deal with it fairly!"

Feng Changqing raised his eyebrows, bowed and retreated.

"Come here, pass on my military order. From now on, if the imperial guards of the Eastern Capital take the initiative to provoke, all the troops can kill first and then play!"

Zhang Xuan stared coldly at the guards of the feather forest kneeling in front of him, glanced across the leader Gu Xi, and sneered, "Gu Xi, are you guilty?"

"The final general is convicted, please punish him!" Gu Xi's face was pale, and she fell down on the ground.

"You raise your head!" Zhang Xuan sternly said, "Your crime is none other than the incompetence of the entire army. The two armies mutinied and clashed, but all the dead and wounded were your soldiers... your soldiers... Are you ashamed to be so vulnerable?"

"With such combat power, you still have to follow me to Longshuo to defend against Tubo. I'm curious, do you have the strength to fight back in front of the brave Tubo cavalry?"

Zhang Xuan's voice became colder and colder, while Gu Xi's face turned redder and redder, and many soldiers were even more ashamed and speechless.

"I won't punish you for the time being. But, if there is another time - Gu Xi, don't come to see me again, go directly to a wall and hit your head to death."

"The governor, you will be incompetent in the end, and you will be convicted in the end!"

Zhang Xuan frowned, turned his horse's head and galloped away.

Yang Jinhua has been watching from the side with cold eyes. Seeing Zhang Xuan's various behaviors, although young, but cruel and resolute, her heart trembles secretly, and the little luck in her heart is instantly shattered.

She originally thought that Zhang Xuan was a literati, and should be a gentle and gentle gentleman, but she didn't expect Zhang Xuan's style to be so strong and tough.At this moment, she has no doubt that if she has any turmoil, Zhang Xuan will never be merciful, and if she can't take her down, he will attack her family.

Yang Jinhua floated up like a catkin, got on the horse without a sound, and chased Zhang Xuan in an instant.

The Habayashi guards who were present took a breath.I heard that there are two female guards with high martial arts skills beside the governor, and now they have opened their eyes.

Gu Xi looked at the back of Yang Jinhua galloping away, and gently said to Feng Changqing, "Master Feng, the woman next to the governor...is it..."

Feng Changqing knew exactly what Gu Xi wanted to ask.But Feng Changqing turned around and gave Gu Xi a cold look. Gu Xi was startled, and quickly swallowed what she hadn't said yet.

**********************************
Chen Xuanli rushed into the East Palace angrily. At the door, he met the left minister Chen Xilie who had been summoned.

Although Chen Xuanli was furious, he still respected Chen Xilie.Firstly, it was because Chen Xilie was kind enough to recommend him, and secondly, because Chen Xilie was gradually valued by the crown prince, becoming Li Heng's most important assistant minister, and his power gradually rose.

"Chen Xiang." Chen Xuanli suppressed his anger, and bowed his hands in salute.

"The general is in a hurry and looks angry, why did he come?" Chen Xilie asked as he walked.

"Chen Xiang, that Zhang Xuan is too deceitful, too deceitful!" Thinking of the scene just now, Chen Xuanli's breathing suddenly became rapid, the anger in his chest was burning, and his eyes almost burst into flames.

Chen Xilie was taken aback, grabbed Chen Xuanli's hand suddenly, and asked anxiously, "What's going on?"

"I was ordered by His Royal Highness to lead the army into Beijing to take over Chang'an's defense... This general's subordinate Zhonglang Qiu Le led the army into the Xuanwu Gate camp and prepared to take over the camp, but Zhang Xuan's soldiers refused to hand over the defense. The army clashed."

"However, that Zhang Xuan was too arrogant, relying on his power and defying no one, he actually beheaded Qiu Le alive in front of this general!"

"It's unreasonable, it's unreasonable! This person is crazy, he has no eyes on the court, no eyes on His Royal Highness, his crime deserves to be punished!"

Chen Xuanli yelled angrily.

Chen Xilie was startled, quickly covered Chen Xilie's mouth, and said in a low voice, "General, be careful! Be careful!"

"The general doesn't know something, but Chief Commander Zhang has made great contributions to the court and His Royal Highness. Without Zhang Xuan, His Royal Highness's position as the crown prince would not be guaranteed. Rong Wang Li Wan conspired against him, Si Ning Wang Li Lin colluded with the internal supervisor Gao Lishi, two times before and after Forced the palace, if Zhang Xuan did not turn the tide, His Highness would not be in the situation of supervising the country today."

"The old man said this to the general. First, he told the general that Zhang Xuan had a very high status in His Highness's mind, and he could not be easily shaken. Second, he also told the general that although Zhang Xuan was young, his methods were not simple. The general did not As a last resort, don't make him your enemy..."

Chen Xilie persuaded softly.

He only spoke half of what he said, which was regarded as a kind reminder. As for whether Chen Xuanli listened or not, it was up to him.

Chen Xuanli's eyes flickered for a moment. Although he retreated a little bit of anger, he didn't take it seriously.

No matter how much credit Zhang Xuan has made, the master is still the master. Li Heng will be the emperor after all. As long as Li Heng becomes the emperor, he will have to deal with Zhang Xuan sooner or later.But now Zhang Xuan is released to the feudal town, and his troops are transferred to Beijing to take over the defense of Chang'an. This in itself is a kind of suspicion of Zhang Xuan.

As for Zhang Xuan's means, let alone, a young man with a weak crown, besides being young and energetic, how can his means be so powerful?
It cannot be blamed that Chen Xuanli despised Zhang Xuan, it was because Zhang Xuan was too young.
