Chapter 37: Surprise is a long history

The purple-robed man called himself Bian Lingcheng, the general of the prison gate, and after hearing the voice, Wang Xiaoxuan, the general of the right guard, struggled to get up regardless of the pain on his body, and couldn't help crying with joy after seeing the face of the purple-robed man. He has the heavy responsibility of guarding the envoy of the Son of Heaven, and whether the envoy is missing or dies in battle, he will have an unshirkable responsibility. According to the Tang law, the envoy who guards the Son of Heaven will be beheaded, and he will also be stripped of all his origins, and half of his life will be in vain.

Seeing that Bian Lingcheng was safe and sound, how could he not be happy and excited? Even if Wang Xiaoxuan had always disliked Bian Lingcheng's villain, he had all left it behind at this moment.

On the contrary, Qin Jin and the others' faces became more ugly and ugly. They ventured to the area from Tongguan to Shaanxi County, in order to rob and kill the envoy of the Son of Heaven, and then blame the rebels for temporarily removing the sword hanging from the heads of Feng Gao and the others. turned out to be the opposite, and he accidentally saved Bian Lingcheng.

Zheng Xianli slapped his thigh with regret, but because Wang Xiaoxuan was on the spot, he could only hold it in his heart, staring at Bian Lingcheng and being powerless.

The rebels were cunning, and Bian set a trap for him to drill, but he didn't expect to be almost plotted. Bian Lingcheng was shocked, muttered to himself, and looked at Qin Jin and the others, who were silent on the spot, and praised with a pair of great appreciation: "All the monarchs today are meritorious, and Bian will definitely show merit for you in front of the saints in the future!" Seeing that the armor on their bodies was in the style of the Northland, which was quite different from Dugi Province and Henan Province, he asked: "Which county of Hebei Province do you belong to?"

Qin Jin originally wanted to make up a background to fool the past, but after thinking about it again, regardless of Bian Lingcheng's identity as a lieutenant envoy, even Wang Xiaoxuan, the right-hand guard, could not be ignored, if he lied today, and the lie would be exposed in the future, he didn't know how much trouble it would cause.

In the flash of light, Qin Jin's mind had already turned more than a dozen thoughts, and finally decided to tell him the truth, but he patted him first: "Thanks to the wisdom and courage of the general, the soldiers under his command use their lives, and going down to join the battle formation is just icing on the cake, and they will never dare to say anything!"

Qin Jin suppressed all his feelings of remorse, looking at this eunuch with a despicable reputation, he did not have a lewd and mean face as depicted in the illustrations in later books. On the contrary, in addition to the obvious physical feature of not having a beard, Bian Lingcheng is no different from an ordinary rich man, and even faintly looks like he is rich.

This is all the more alarming, because a person with a mean face will instinctively produce disgust and vigilance. And people like Bian Lingcheng with a warm face and a heart like a snake and scorpion are the most difficult to guard against.

Bian Lingcheng's pale face suddenly burst into a smile that was better than crying, "Okay, very good, don't be greedy for merit!" It seems that he has an excellent impression of Qin Jin!"Listening to the accent, it seems to be a person from Henan Province?"

"The general has good eyesight, and he went down to be the lieutenant of Xin'an County, leading the people of Xin'an to avoid the rebel soldiers, and only then did he cross the Kunshan Mountain and come to the Qinling Mountains. ”

Bian Lingcheng nodded again, "Yes, I know that I love the people, and I have ...... responsibility."

praised several times in a row, but it fell on Qin Jin's ears, but it made him extremely tired. Bian Lingcheng was only halfway through his words, but he suddenly stopped, stared at him and asked: "Xin'an County Lieutenant, is that Xin'an County Lieutenant who beheaded tens of thousands of Hu soldiers in the first battle?"

Bian Lingcheng asked this question, and Qin Jin knew in his heart that it was the tens of thousands of heads that Chen Qianli escorted into Beijing that played a role.

"It's going down!"

"That's it! How can there be an incompetent person who is a saint who is optimistic about an official? If you can solve Bian Mou's crisis today, it is the saint's grace and infinite blessings......

Wang Xiaoxuan's attitude towards Qin Jin on the side also changed suddenly, at first he was just polite, but now he has a little more respect. You must know that since An Lushan rebelled, the Tang army has been defeated in successive battles, and even famous generals like Feng Changqing who shocked the Western Regions have been defeated miserably.

After the initial gathering of the Tang army, there were only more than 100 people left, gathered on the left side, some of whom were in pain and some were uneasy.

"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, the army of Cui Qianyou is under the city of Yuzhou...... I wonder where the general wants to go?"

Qin Jin asked knowingly, of course he knew that Bian Lingcheng was going to Shaanxi County, and he still had a fateful edict with him.

Unexpectedly, after listening to Qin Jin's question, Bian Lingcheng's face instantly became extremely ugly, the little eunuch who was responsible for keeping the edict and the edict beside him had just died in the chaos, and now he, the lieutenant envoy who lost the edict of the Son of Heaven and the edict, what qualifications did he have to be called a lieutenant?

Wang Xiaoxuan didn't know his hometown, so he said bluntly: "Qin Shaofu doesn't know anything, the general is on the festival of the Son of Heaven, and this time he is going to Shaanxi County to supervise the army......" Immediately, he sighed again, "As Qin Shaofu said, the rebels have cut off the road to Shaanxi County, and it is not easy to reach it smoothly!"

The geographical location of Yuzhou is special, connecting Gyeonggi Province in the west, Hedong Province in the north, Dugi Province in the east, and Shannan Dongdo Province in the south. The rebels intend to attack Yuzhou, thinking that An Lushan has already made up his mind to attack Tongguan, maybe a fierce battle is just around the corner.

"What? Cui Qianyou really arrived in Yuzhou?" Bian Lingcheng's demeanor, which had just been restored, suddenly became a little flustered, and then scolded with hatred: "Did Gao Linu and that cripple eat white rice in Shaanxi County? Why did you let Cui Qianyou cross Shaanxi County to Yuzhou? Hmph, it was really a dead end!" When I thought that the edict had been thrown somewhere, I was upset.

This insult caused Zheng Xianli to be extremely angry, and he slammed the ice and snow on the riding boots with the horizontal scabbard, and he wanted to rush up and stab the eunuch. But there are more than 100 Tang troops around him, as well as Wang Xiaoxuan, the general of the Right Weiwei Zhonglang, and it is not difficult to guess only by the identity and surname of the 16th Guard of the Son of Heaven that this person is very likely to be born from the Wang clan of Taiyuan, Hedong. Nowadays, the family of gate valves, five surnames and seven wangli, Taiyuan Wang is among them, although it is not as good as Boling and Qinghe, but it is also extremely noble.

Killing a Bian Lingcheng, a mere eunuch, how can it be enough? But Zheng Xianli even turned out to be a result of these people from the big families, but it has not yet reached the level of madness. If you can take this Wang Xiaoxuan away, it may be a good choice. As everyone knows, Wang Xiaoxuan, out of duty, will never let Bian Lingcheng out of his scope of protection.

Qin Jin sensed his jealousy of Cui Qianyou's rebels from Bian Lingcheng's words, so he took the opportunity to suggest: "Right now, the rebels in Hongnong County are raging, and there are chaotic soldiers everywhere, the general might as well retreat to Tongguan for a few days, and then it's not too late to set off!"

At present, since there is no hope of killing, it is also a way to retreat and block Bian Lingcheng in Tongguan.

Bian Lingcheng had to admit that this was indeed the safest way, but there was suffering. Lost the festival and the edict of the Son of Heaven, and fled back to Tongguan in such a gloomy manner, he, the general of the prison gate, fought for his life, and the reputation and capital he had fought in the Western Regions would be in vain, and even the condemnation of the Son of Heaven would be incurred. If you don't go back, on the post road leading from Tongguan to Shaanxi County, there are all the rebels of Cui Qianyou's department, and you may even lose your head to eat at any time, and it is difficult to choose under the dilemma, so you are noncommittal to Qin Jin's suggestion.

"Qin Shaofu, the general went to Shaanxi County to supervise the army on a festival, and he can't go back when he leaves Tongguan!"

Wang Xiaoxuan didn't know that both sides had their own thoughts, but he felt that if he went back like this, he would definitely be punished by the Son of Heaven, so he was more inclined to continue to march to Shaanxi County.

In the distance, a group of startled birds suddenly flew up among the dry grass in Takasaka, and Bian Lingcheng was already like a frightened bird at this time, and his complexion suddenly changed drastically.

"There are thieves, go quickly!"

After saying that, he was about to leave, but Qin Jin grabbed Bian Lingcheng's robe sleeve.

"Don't worry, general, first go to the woodland in the south to avoid it, now the soldiers are all injured, and if they go rashly, it will attract more attention!"

Bian Lingcheng was greatly appreciative, "According to what Qin Shaofu said, quickly, quickly, go to the forest......"

The group hula lala into the woodland to the south, only then a little relieved, quietly observing the movement near the post road, but except for a burst of frightened birds flying by, there was no movement for a long time. Bian Lingcheng couldn't help but sit on the snow with his butt, and couldn't help but sigh repeatedly.

"What a majesty was in the Western Regions back then! Destroying the human kingdom at every turn, which Hu'er didn't lose his heart when he heard of the arrival of the Tang Army? Why is this today, why is it like this...... I was bullied by a miscellaneous child to this ......"

Before he finished speaking, he cried loudly!

The remnants of the Tang Army went up to Wang Xiaoxuan and down to the ordinary soldiers, and everyone who heard it wept.

Qin Jin watched coldly, and secretly said that he was afraid that he was crying, he was invincible in the past, but today he is panicked like a lost dog. Suddenly, a thought popped into me.

"It's not a way to go on like this, since the general doesn't want to go back to Tongguan, why not let Zhonglang go to Tongguan to bring some reinforcements, and then escort the general to Shaanxi County!"

Qin Jin didn't know why Bian Lingcheng refused to go back to Tongguan, but he suddenly thought that if Wang Xiaoxuan could be taken away, wouldn't he be able to find an opportunity to kill Bian Lingcheng? This impression of Qin Jin was too despicable, and it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart if he didn't kill this person.

Wang Xiaoxuan refused to leave, but Bian Lingcheng wiped the tears on his face and high-fived him for goodness.

"That's very good! Just according to what Qin Shaofu said!" Then he said to Wang Xiaoxuan: "With Qin Shaofu, why are you afraid?"

Wang Xiaoxuan insisted on his opinion: "Go down and bear the order of the Son of Heaven, protect the envoy, and dare not ......"

"Where is so much nonsense? Qin Shaofu can behead more than 10,000 Hu soldiers in one battle, is it not as good as you?" Bian Lingcheng immediately turned his face and sneered and reprimanded with mean words.

Seeing that Bian Lingcheng's attitude was so resolute, Wang Xiaoxuan had no choice but to grit his teeth and obey, but he no longer cared about face, hoping that seeing Qin Jin could prove that he was the lieutenant of Xin'an County. Qin Jin was open-minded, so he naturally didn't care about the other party's doubts, and immediately took out the seal letter and let them inspect it in person.

Looking at Qin Jin's county lieutenant Yinxin, Bian Lingcheng patted his head with his right hand, and suddenly said: "Why did you forget this key matter!" and then looked at Qin Jin with a smile: "Qin Shaofu knows that the sage has moved to the right to become the ...... of Hongnong County Magistrate"-
