Chapter 162: Identity
Lei Shaoxuan's brain was spinning rapidly, and he couldn't think of a good solution for a while, so he could only stalemate.
Shen Nian leaned around, Zhang Qianhua's body trembled, huddled in a dark corner of the roof, and he couldn't find it if he didn't pay attention.
It's a pity that Lei Shaoxuan died, and Zhang Qianhua's fate will be extremely tragic.
After a while, there was another sound of neat footsteps at the entrance of the alley, and a group of sergeants strode along the alley.
"The 3rd Brigade of the North Ya of the Gyeonggi Guard Camp in Xijing is inspected. Stand up, what's going on?"
A middle-aged warrior with a red helmet and a brown leather armor stepped forward, holding a big spear in his hand, tall and burly, and his bearing was extraordinary.
"Xijing, Gyeonggi Suwei Camp Beiya, Captain Lu Fangxiong, see His Royal Highness King Qi. β
The sergeants held their knives and guns one after another, aiming at Lei Shaoxuan.
Lu Fangxiong looked at Lei Shaoxuan and shouted, "Who are you, why are you holding King Qi hostage?"
"King Qi?"
Lei Shaoxuan said sharply: "I am Lei Shaoxuan, captain of the Military Intelligence Department of the Southern Army, I have just returned to Beijing from the Northwest Front, I have urgent military information, and I need to report to the Military Intelligence Department of the Ministry of War immediately, and I was followed by unknown people along the way. This person pretended to be the king of Qi and led the crowd to besiege him, with unknown intentions, and let go of the tail followers. β
Wu Tai and the chief manager of the palace Wu were so angry that they almost vomited blood when they heard this, it was so shameless!
Since it is an urgent military business, do you still have time to go to Guanghan Palace to spend 40,000 taels of silver to buy a girl?
Tailgating by an unknown person, does it mean that the king of Qi is either colluding with the enemy or a robber?
"Captain Lu, you're just in time! I need you to send someone to escort me to the Military Intelligence Department of the Ministry of War. β
"The person in your hand is the King of Qi, you let him go first!"
Lu Fangxiong said in a deep voice: "You claim to be the captain of the Military Intelligence Department of the Southern Army, how can you prove it?"
Lei Shaoxuan hesitated for a moment, put away the Zhan Qing knife, and threw a bronze medal to Lu Fangxiong.
A delicate bronze square plaque, engraved on the front: Xiongzhen Western Regions, the Southern Army is undefeated.
There is a string of numbers on the back: one, three, one, four, five, thunder.
This is a real captain card of the Military Intelligence Department of the Southern Army.
There is a special combination of numbers on the back of the bronze medal, and the name can be read according to the relevant code, and non-related people cannot read it at all; there are no more than twenty people in Xijing City who know this secret, and Lei Shaoxuan himself cannot decipher it.
Lu Fangxiong was one of the twenty people, and this secret was set up by the Military Intelligence Department of the Ministry of War, and was only conveyed to the first-class officers of the Captain Captain in the Gyeonggi Suwei Camp in Xijing.
Wu Tai walked back behind Lu Fang Xiong and shouted: "This person has taken this king hostage, take it down immediately, and bring it back to the palace." β
The two guards of King Qi hurriedly stepped forward and restrained Lei Shaoxuan.
Lu Fangxiong hesitated for a moment and shouted: "Wait! This person is a lieutenant of the Military Intelligence Department, and he will be escorted to the military department immediately." β
The soldiers blocked the guards' way.
King Qi was furious and said, "Captain Lu, you dare to stop this king from doing things?"
Lu Fangxiong gritted his teeth and said: "Lord Wang, there are special provisions in the regulations of the Jinggi garrison in Xijing, and those who dare to make trouble in Xijing would rather kill by mistake than let go, except for the border army and military intelligence personnel. β
The Xijing Gyeonggi Garrison was the garrison of Xijing, and the King of Wei strictly ordered not to participate in the struggle between the forces of the imperial court.
At that time, the commander of the Gyeonggi Garrison Battalion in Xijing warned Lu Fangxiong that the military intelligence personnel of the border army had returned to Beijing to report that in addition to crossing the enemy's layers of death blockade lines, they might also encounter all kinds of conspiracy traps after arriving in Beijing, and the officers and men of the Gyeonggi garrison must protect them if any military intelligence personnel are attacked.
This is a bloody lesson.
In the ninth year of the Great Wei Dynasty, the first emperor was at war with South Vietnam, and Yang Guohu, then the general of Pingnan, learned that a lion of South Vietnam crossed the Bao River and approached the capital, and issued twelve emergency military intelligence alarms in a row.
Unexpectedly, the third son of the first emperor competed for the throne with the current King of Wei, colluded with South Vietnam, intercepted and killed all the military intelligence personnel who returned to Beijing to report the news, and Xijing almost fell.
Since then, there has been an additional rule in the Gyeonggi Garrison Camp in Xijing: In the event of a request for help from military intelligence personnel, any Gyeonggi garrison soldier will be protected at all costs.
Since the promulgation of the regulations, there have been almost no requests for help from military intelligence personnel; after all, as military intelligence personnel, their identities are kept secret, and who has nothing to do with revealing their identities? After entering Beijing, very few personnel were intercepted and killed, and the incident of that year was actually a special case.
However, this special ordinance is well known to the officers and soldiers of the Gyeonggi Guard Battalion.
As a Beijing official, Lu Fangxiong knew that the crown prince, the king of Qi and several princes were fighting openly and secretly, and the king of Qi repeatedly stretched out his hand to the army, obviously with bad intentions.
Today's events are very strange, the dignified king of Qi, led the crowd to intercept and kill the captain of the Military Intelligence Department, who knows what conspiracy is inside?
In front of the officers and soldiers of the Gyeonggi Su Guard Battalion, let the King of Qi take Lei Shaoxuan away, in case he kills him, the consequences will be serious.
These princes are not good birds.
I have to say that Lu Fangxiong thought a little too much, and the result was that no matter what, he would never let King Qi take Lei Shaoxuan away.
Take away the border army intelligence personnel, there is really something wrong, King Wei will pursue it, and Lu Fangxiong's family is not enough to cut it.
The guards tried to force their way past the soldiers, but Lu Fangxiong was furious, he couldn't touch the King of Qi, but he was not afraid to kill one or two guards.
"Dare to attack the sergeant of the Gyeonggi Guard, no matter what killing!" Lu Fangxiong said ruthlessly.
The guards were stunned.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Chief Manager Wu was faintly uneasy, and said gloomily: "This person rushed into King Qi, how to reflect the dignity of the royal family without punishment, Captain Lu, what is the reason for you to repeatedly block it." β
Lu Fangxiong was indifferent.
Wu Tai woke up when he heard this, and said viciously: "Fight! Let everyone know the fate of offending the royal family." β
This sentence indicates that Lei Shaoxuan's life is wanted, and offending the royal family is regarded as a rebellion and a capital crime.
This is the power that the King of Qi has, and Lu Fangxiong can't stop it.
Lei Shaoxuan secretly shouted that it was not good, but he couldn't openly resist.
The Gyeonggi Suwei Camp can prevent Wu Tai from taking Lei Shaoxuan away, but it can't stop the King of Qi from punishing him, and the superior naturally has some privileges.
As long as he doesn't take it away, even if he kills Lei Shaoxuan, it has nothing to do with Lu Fangxiong;
The four guards rushed forward like wolves, tied Lei Shaoxuan's hands to the barrel of the gun, and pressed it against the wall.
Sting!
There was a cracking sound.
The guards rudely tore Lei Shaoxuan's upper clothes, exposing his back.
Everyone gasped and fell silent.
Lei Shaoxuan's back was scarred, and many new injuries were superimposed on old ones, like scaly layers, looking extremely hideous.
Lu Fang's ambition was painful, like a pinprick in the needle, and no one knew what it meant better than him.
Most of the officers of the Gyeonggi Guard Battalion were selected from the border army, and they had to be brave men who had nothing to do with the major forces in the capital and had outstanding military achievements.
Seeing Lei Shaoxuan so scarred, he must have experienced a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, nine deaths and a lifetime, but he died in a conspiracy for no reason, and he couldn't help but feel faintly angry in his heart.
Lei Shaoxuan is his own kind, a comrade-in-arms.
"This person is a lieutenant of the Military Intelligence Department of the Southern Army, and when he returns to Beijing from the Northwest Front, he must have important military information, and if he dies here, the villain has the obligation to report to the Ministry of War. Lu Fang raised the military sign in his hand.
Wu Tai's heart sank, and he killed Lei Shaoxuan, and things were really troublesome.
He repeatedly interfered in military affairs, and killed border army officers for no reason, can you make it clear?
How does the King of Wei see himself? Regardless of the overall situation, he only knows how to fight for power, how can such a person have an army?
What's more, if something happens to the army, the blame will be put on him, saying that he is colluding with the enemy, and it is difficult to distinguish between a hundred words.
In the army, he is not alone in the matter, several brothers are staring at each other, grasping their own handles.
Wu Tai said viciously: "Hit, hit hard!"
The change of tone means that you can't be killed, you can only be beaten hard.
Chief Manager Wu understood and shook his head at the guard, who nodded.
It hurts! It hurts, it hurts.
The horsewhip slammed down, and the flesh was blurred.
The sound of whipping pierced the night sky and echoed through the alleys.
Every whip was whipped Lei Shaoxuan, and it was also whipped in the hearts of every sergeant.
The sergeant glared angrily, and he couldn't bear it in his heart, no matter what, he couldn't blaspheme a border soldier out of personal indignation.
In the dark corner of the roof, Zhang Qianhua burst into tears, her heart was like a knife, and the end of offending Wu Tai would definitely be death.
Lei Shaoxuan died for her, the turbid world is heavy, why can the powerful always be domineering?
One whip, two whips......
Lu Fangxiong couldn't bear to look directly, and silently listened and counted the whips. He knew Wu Tai's meaning very well and couldn't be killed on the spot, but he only had one breath left, and when he returned home and died, it had nothing to do with King Qi.
The anger was suppressed in Lu Fangxiong's heart, piled up, and almost exploded.
"Stop!" said in the alley.
Everyone turned around, and three people walked in proudly.
Lei Shaoxuan slowly raised his head, barely opened his eyes, and Song Zhong, Jian Mingzhi, and Liu Zhi walked over.
"Who are you, who dare to stop this king?" Wu Tai said angrily.
Again and again, again and again, tonight is full of bad luck, and everything is not going well.
The auction hall suffered heavy losses, and even the killing of people in the alley was repeatedly prevented, and more and more people were involved, and the situation tended to get out of control, how could he not be angry?
"See His Royal Highness King Qi. We are the Masters of the Imperial Prison. β
Jian Mingzhi saluted Wu Tai and said: "This person is a student of Guozijian, and he needs to be sent to the yamen for punishment, and he will be interrogated together with the Guozijian Prison." After ascertaining the facts, report to the king, and record the crime in the history of the Guozi Prison to warn future generations, and the rest of the people must not be lynched. β
As a protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, his identity is different, and he reports directly to the King of Wei for violating the criminal law, and cannot be lynched.
Strictly speaking, King Qi's punishment of Lei Shaoxuan was a lynching.
Lei Shaoxuan has not officially entered the school yet, and he is not yet a student of Guozijian, but will Wu Tai send someone to verify it?
Wu Tai's face was full of anger, his chest rose and fell, and he was panting.
"Let's go!" Wu Taiqiang said angrily and led the guards away.
Lu Fangxiong hurriedly relieved Lei Shaoxuan and breathed a sigh of relief.
The military intelligence personnel have freedom of movement, Lei Shaoxuan did not let Lu Fangxiong escort him, but was supported by Song Zhong and others, and under the stunned gaze of everyone, he picked up Zhang Qianhua from the roof and returned to his residence in Shuichi Lane.
"Spend 40,000 taels of silver to photograph the flower girl, but you are reluctant to buy a better yard?" Song Zhong felt incredulous.
It shows that this person loves beauty, does not love the country and does not love the house. Jian Mingzhi pouted.
"Xiangjun, he's so poor and sour, why don't you come with me. Liu Zhi looked straight at Zhang Qianhua, drooling, and joked.
