Chapter 288: More than that
(Give everyone a super late New Year, cough cough, I always feel like I'm still celebrating the New Year after the Lantern Festival...... )
Of course, Pei Ding didn't fall down, he crossed the eaves of the long street like a bird, and galloped steadily in front of Zhao Hongyuan. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
When he saw the pale young man in front of him, Zhao Hongyuan's eyes shrank slightly, and his heart suddenly became vigilant.
Of course he knew who this young man was, Pei Ding of the first family in Hedong, and the imperial history of the central superintendent, this person happened to be on Guanghe Street, and he came to him, what did he want?
At this time, the long knives of the Gyeonggi guards were raised and fell, and the crowded people could not be seen falling, but the smell of blood was getting worse and worse, indicating what the situation was like here.
Pei Ding didn't look back, he looked straight at Zhao Hongyuan, and said coldly: "Vice General Zhao, you ordered the Gyeonggi Wei soldiers to slaughter the people, this is ...... Does the emperor know?"
His eyes burst out with a cold glow, which made Zhao Hongyuan's heart tremble involuntarily.
Obviously, the person in front of him was sick and pale, and he was still a petty official from the eighth grade, but Zhao Hongyuan couldn't ignore him.
Without him, he is afraid of the first family in Hedong behind him.
Now the natural disasters of the national dynasty are continuous, and there are displaced people in the ten major provinces, but Hedong Road and Jiangnan Road are still calm, especially Hedong Road is the most peaceful, among which there are great contributions of the Pei family, the Liu family and other families.
I heard that the emperor also secretly summoned Pei Guang, the head of the Pei family, into the palace, intending to use the influence and power of the family to quell the disasters of the displaced people in the Ten Great Dao.
In such a situation, Pei Guang's existence is very delicate, after all, the emperor still has to rely on Pei Guang's benchmarking role. And the young man in front of him is Pei Guang's most beloved young son, and the only person in the Pei family who is now a prominent person.
Although this tone of cold questioning made Zhao Hongyuan quite unhappy in his heart, he had no intention of struggling with Pei Ding, and he didn't think that Pei Ding could affect the situation here, so he patiently replied: "Lord Pei, this deputy general is here to quell the chaos on the order of the emperor. ”
The implication is: How could the emperor not know? However, the emperor's order was mainly to pacify, and Zhao Hongyuan felt that the situation had come to this point, and it was useless to appease them, and to deal with these troublemakers, we should follow what Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War said, and only strong suppression could stop it.
Blood, more effective than any pacification.
As for the lives of these people, in Zhao Hongyuan's opinion, it is nothing, one more is not more, one less is not less, is there a small number of corpses of displaced people who are carried out of the Jingzhao City Gate every day?
The roaring and hopeless shouts here and the increasingly thick smell of blood gave him a strange pleasure, which incidentally made him a little more tolerant of Pei Ding.
The bloodshed continued, and the chill in Pei Ding's eyes became worse, and he stepped forward and said, "Lord Zhao, now that there is such a big conflict, it is of little use except for the loss of human lives. Can you let the Gyeonggi guards leave first?"
Zhao Hongyuan seemed to hear something interesting, and couldn't help laughing, and said, "Master Pei, this vice general didn't hear it wrong, right? Let Gyeonggi Wei leave? I'm sorry, this vice general didn't receive such an order." ”
It's really funny, why did this son of a family say such a thing? There was something wrong with his brain! He wondered if Pei Ding had a problem with his brain, even if he was afraid of the strength of the first family in Hedong and was willing to give Pei Ding some face, it would be impossible for him to withdraw from the army for a word.
He came to quell the chaos by the emperor's order, who did Pei Ding think he dared to stand up for these people and question the emperor's orders?
The Pei family's courage is too great......
He looked Pei Ding up and down, and said suspiciously: "It's unusual for the people here on Guanghe Street to make trouble, it can't be that Lord Pei has any connection with these people, right? Otherwise, why does Lord Pei stand out for these people?"
No matter what Pei Ding's intentions are, if this big hat is buttoned down, people who are a little smart will be silent.
Zhao Hongyuan really didn't want to say anything more with Pei Ding on the street, he looked at the conflict in the distance, and a smile was on his lips.
Pei Ding is indeed very bold, but there is nothing wrong with his brain, and there is of course a reason why he dared to say to Zhao Hongyuan that he would retire from the army.
I saw him take a few steps forward, and before Zhao Hongyuan could react, he leaned close to his ear and whispered: "Lord Zhao, I don't know if the crossbow bed you detained from Weiwei Temple is known by the emperor, I don't know how many military exploits can be used to offset this crime?"
As soon as he spoke, he took a few steps back, and coldly watched Zhao Hongyuan's face lose blood, and he could still think that Zhao Hongyuan's face was pale and he had a fight with himself.
People who have dark ghosts in their hearts are of course so frightened that their faces are bloodless.
The people here on Guanghe Street gathered too quickly and the people's feelings were too turbulent, which caught everyone off guard, and the Pei family had no way to solve the situation, and he had no way to make the people retreat, but ......
But when the general who led the troops to quell the chaos was Zhao Hongyuan, he still had a way, and the people on the street also had a glimmer of hope to save their lives.
When he jumped out of the window, it suddenly occurred to him that it would be good if it was Tao Shu who led the troops. If it was the leader of the alien army, then this bloody scene on the street would not have happened.
But Yizhi had already gone to Guan Waiwei, and it was Deputy General Zhao Hongyuan who came. Zhao Hongyuan...... Yizhi once talked about this person!
When he leaped over the eaves of the street, he finally remembered Zhao Hongyuan's handle. Yes, that's right, it's the handle!
The general Tao Yuanqing took his cronies in the army to the Guanwaiwei, but he also made a layout in Gyeonggi Guard, which was to deal with He Yingtang's backhand who was in charge of Gyeonggi Guard.
The handle of the deputy general Zhao Hongyuan is one of the back hands.
Zhao Hongyuan has an amazing hobby, that is, he likes to collect war crossbows. This war crossbow is not an ordinary bow and crossbow, but a crossbow bed, a crossbow bed with extremely powerful lethality!
Daxuan is extremely strict with the management of bows and crossbows, and ordinary people can't even own bows and crossbows, let alone crossbow beds.
There are many procedures between the departure of the crossbow bed from the Weiwei Temple to the delivery to the Davids, and the damaged crossbow bed must also be sent back to the Weiwei Temple for repair; even if it is confirmed that it cannot be repaired, it must be burned, and no one must be allowed to get the crossbow bed.
In such a situation, it is basically impossible for ordinary people to get a crossbow bed. However, Zhao Hongyuan, the deputy general of the Gyeonggi Guard, got several crossbow beds, which can be described as a skill.
In Tao Yuanqing's arrangement, Zhao Hongyuan's handle is far from mature. After all, they had no way of ensuring that the crossbow beds would be safely saved - as long as Zhao Hongyuan burned them in time, then the handle would not exist.
However, now the situation here in Guanghe Street is too critical, in order to save the lives of these ordinary people, Pei Ding took out this immature handle and used it.
The gamble was that Zhao Hongyuan didn't have time to go back and burn the crossbow bed, and the gamble was that Zhao Hongyuan was shocked and afraid.
He turned to look back at the people on the street, and his beautiful phoenix eyes flashed with bright light: the main thing is to save the lives of the people, and it is not a pity to use this handle in advance!
Zhao Hongyuan's face turned pale, and he wanted to say something, but he seemed to be blocked in his throat, and he couldn't even speak.
Pei Ding held this handle in his hand, and the purpose was to let the Gyeonggi guard soldiers leave temporarily. As an adjutant general, he could make these soldiers retreat.
Zhao Hongyuan sweated profusely on his forehead, and wanted to raise his hand to give an order to stop, but he was trembling and unwilling.
Still not returning?
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves rumbling sounded at the entrance of Guanghe Street, and some people and horses were galloping here.
