Chapter 82: Reappointed as Captain of Muzhou

At the end of the year, the Muzhou Lieutenant Battalion.

Zhao Che stood in front of the school yard under the protection of Gu Hengzhou and the three dead soldiers, Shen Bai stood beside him, beating the gong vigorously, and the entire school captain battalion was quickly woken up, and they all came out of the camp tent and assembled at the school ground.

Meng Heling was sick, and Yue Zhongshou sent another battalion of people away, and there were only a few sect leaders left in the camp.

The other soldiers didn't know what was going on, they looked at Shen Bai and them curiously, several sect leaders rushed to the front, and saw that the three leaders were just teenagers, and they were immediately furious, and one of them rolled up his sleeves and scolded Shen Bai: "Stinky boy, do you know what the crime of trespassing on the captain's camp is?" Want to die? ”

The man rushed to Shen Bai as he spoke, wanting to punch Shen Bai down, but his fist was halfway down, but he was caught steadily.

The man was tall and strong, and his fists were big, but after being caught, he seemed to be pinched by iron tongs, and he couldn't move at all, and after struggling for a while, his hand bones were scratched and painful, and his forehead suddenly sweated.

Seeing that he was restrained, none of the people behind him dared to act rashly, Shen Bai took the opportunity to kick the man's knee, raised a piece of gold and said loudly: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is here, I see who dares to make a mistake!" ”

Everyone was in an uproar, but they didn't expect that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would suddenly appear in Muzhou City.

Several sect leaders also looked at each other, they were all promoted by Meng Heling from the camp, and they were just reckless men who knew how to do kung fu before, and the biggest official they had ever seen was none other than Yuejingshan, the capital of Muzhou Prefecture, and they didn't recognize the golden order in Shen Bai's hand, and they never thought that they would one day see the prince of Zhaoling.

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is on patrol for such a big thing, how can there be no news at all? And there are too few people around His Royal Highness the Prince, isn't it necessary for one hundred and eighty guards to protect him all the way?

Everyone looked suspicious, and Shen Bai said with righteous words: "Yue Jingshan, the capital of Muzhou Prefecture, and Meng Heling, the captain of the school, are in collusion, and they are the one who is in trouble, after His Royal Highness the Prince's secret visit in the past few days, the crimes of the two have been presented to the emperor, and Zhou Deshan, the captain of Hanjing, has arrived from Chenzhou with troops, and will be able to arrive in Muzhou early the morning after tomorrow at the latest. ”

The rebel's hat is buttoned down, but it is enough to kill the head.

Gu Hengzhou grabbed the man and immediately stiffened his neck and said, "We didn't do anything, don't be a fool of you, kid!" ”

Shen Bai struck the man's head with the mallet of the gong, swept over everyone with a cold gaze, and said bewildermently: "Meng Heling and Yue Jingshan have done countless evil things in Muzhou, and you have helped to abuse the people, which is also an unforgivable crime, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is kind and generous, so he came here in person tonight to prepare to give you one last chance." ”

Shen Bai struck the gong heavily as he spoke, so that everyone's attention was focused on himself: "If you want to live, come to the prince's palace one by one to expose the crimes of Meng Heling and Yue Jingshan, and if you don't want to live, just pestle there, at noon the day after tomorrow, the vegetable market will ask for a beheading, and you will definitely let the executioner help you sharpen the knife faster!" ”

After Shen Bai finished speaking, the entire school field was silent, and the people present had different expressions, and they didn't dare to act easily.

Shen Bai knew what they were afraid of, turned his head to look at the head of the sect who was being grabbed by Gu Hengzhou, and said with a smile: "They don't dare to move, didn't this big brother give them an example first?" ”

That person was probably Meng Heling's henchman, and he didn't know that Meng Heling was dying, so he said to those soldiers angrily: "What are you doing coldly, this yellow-mouthed kid is here to confuse the public, why don't you take her down quickly, and when Captain Meng comes back, you will die!" ”

After the man finished speaking, a few bold people stepped forward to capture Shen Bai, Gu Hengzhou broke the man's hand and threw it aside, pulled Shen Bai behind him, and knocked all the people who rushed up to the ground with three strikes and five divisions.

As soon as his cold eyes lifted, the dark and gloomy aura spread out in an instant, and he said word by word: "I see who dares to move again!" ”

Gu Hengzhou had the momentum of being a husband and a man, and everyone else was so frightened that they didn't dare to step forward, Shen Bai poked his head out from behind Gu Hengzhou and smiled slyly: "Don't miss the opportunity, you can't miss it, you have to think clearly." ”

Those who were not afraid of death had already explored the road, and none of them had the confidence to beat Gu Hengzhou, and after a while, one person raised his hand weakly: "I...... I know that two months ago, Meng Heling was drunk and kidnapped a girl from Lizhuang to return to the camp, and the girl committed suicide by hitting the wall the next day...... Buried people together. ”

It's another human life.

Shen Bai licked his lips and raised his chin: "This little brother and the fifth brother Zhang can go back to the camp tent to rest." ”

The two men returned to the camp in disbelief, and the others immediately became ready to move.

Shen Bai interrupted coldly: "Who is the paperwork, take the pen and paper out and write it down, and then press a handprint before leaving." ”

The documents were soon pushed out, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were ready, and people came forward one after another to accuse Meng Heling of his crimes.

Meng Heling is lustful, and he is easy to get angry and violent in bed, so he killed a lot of women, most of them complained about this, Shen Bai felt angry when he heard it at first, and then he gradually became numb, and there was only one thought left in his mind: kill that beast alive.

There were too many crimes, and the paperwork quickly wrote a thick pile of paper, and the paper was not enough, and there was no time to go to the city to buy it, so Shen Bai asked them to take off their clothes and give them to the paperwork.

When it was almost dawn, an old man with gray temples walked up to Shen Bai, one of his eyes was gouged out, his face was full of wrinkles, and the remaining eye was pitch black and looked very evil.

He didn't look at the paperwork, and walked straight towards Shen Bai, Shen Bai was originally a little dozed off, but when he saw him walking towards him, he immediately cheered up, Gu Hengzhou had been standing next to Shen Bai, and looked at the old man coldly.

The old man stopped three steps away from Shen Bai and said in a dumb voice: "My name is Zhang Dahai, I am the old man of the captain's battalion, you made such a big noise, you actually came here for the incident five years ago, right?" ”

There have been hundreds of people who have come to accuse Meng Heling, but this person named Zhang Dahai is the first person to mention the incident five years ago.

Shen Bai raised his eyebrows, and together with Gu Hengzhou, he took the old man to the main tent to find Zhao Che.

The lights were on in the tent, and Zhao Che never slept, looking at the crimes and bright red handprints recorded in the paperwork through the dim light.

Yue Jingshan and Meng Heling have done countless evil things in Muzhou, the people in the school captain camp know it, the people in Muzhou City know it, and even some people in Beijing know it, but only he, the prince of Zhaoling, doesn't know, and His Majesty doesn't know it today.

If he hadn't come out in person, these evil things would have been buried in the ground of Muzhou for a long time, along with those resentful spirits who died in vain, rotting and rotting, and finally there would be nothing left.

Zhao Che's brows were furrowed, and his temples were faintly tingling.

He didn't know that under the prosperous surface of Zhaoling, there were so many bloody evil things covered, and he didn't know that there were so many undead mourning and mourning.

He had been taught to be a wise ruler since he was a child, but now he had a huge and strong sense of helplessness in his heart, the mountains and rivers of Zhaoling were full of holes, and he didn't know how he could cure it.

Thinking about it, a gentle voice suddenly came from his ear: "Your Highness, why did you fall asleep while sitting?" ”

Lifting his eyes, Shen Bai rushed to him with a flattering face, took off his coat very quickly to put it on him, and when he woke up, his movements froze, and he smiled flatteringly: "Your Highness, you didn't sleep, I was dazzled just now, and I thought you were asleep." ”

Shen Bai's tone was brisk, his eyes were bright, and he was about to put on his coat, when Zhao Che's heart moved slightly, and he grabbed her wrist.

The tentacles are soft, slightly suppressing the tingling pain in the temples.

Shen Bai didn't expect him to make a sudden move, and blinked in surprise: "Your Highness, what's wrong?" ”

Zhao Che said without changing his face: "It's a little cold." ”

When Shen Bai received the hint, he immediately put on his coat for Zhao Che, and kept thinking in his mouth: "Those people are really coarse, it's so cold at night now, why don't they know to cover something for His Highness, what if His Highness is cold?" ”

Shen Bai saw the sycophants of the stitches, Zhao Che originally thought that her flattering appearance was very cheesy and contemptible, but now he felt very relieved when he listened to it.

What if the mountains and rivers are full of devastation? This man would always stand beside him as a hanger.

The man said to him, "Your Highness, you are so good-looking, you should smile more."

This person also said: Your Highness, Brother Gu and I are your most loyal ministers, whether it is this trip or in the future, in the event of danger, Brother Gu and I will not hesitate to stand in front of you, and please believe that we have the strength to protect you.

He is the prince of Zhaoling, and the mountains and rivers of Zhaoling have been corroded by a group of moths, but they will stand by his side and return the world to a clear and clear world.

Zhao Che let go of Shen Bai and looked at Gu Hengzhou who was standing on the side, and the uneasiness in his heart finally completely dissipated.

Gu Hengzhou glanced at Shen Bai and bowed to Zhao Che: "Meet Your Highness." ”

After the words fell, Zhang Dahai got out from behind Gu Hengzhou, lifted his clothes and knelt in front of Zhao Che: "Meet His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

Zhao Che put the indictment aside and looked at Zhang Dahai with a cold expression: "What do you have to say?" ”

Zhang Dahai did not immediately confess Meng Heling's crime, he first glanced at Gu Hengzhou, and said suspiciously: "Dare to ask if this Langjun is the prince of Zhenguo?" ”

Gu Hengzhou twisted his eyebrows, he had never seen Zhang Dahai before, he didn't know why Zhang Dahai knew him, he hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Exactly." ”

Zhang Dahai nodded, and let out a long sigh of relief, as if he had finally spit out the evil breath that was pressing on his heart.

He slammed his head on the ground and said with blood in his eyes: "Zhang Dahai, the leader of the Muzhou Captain Battalion, reported that the Muzhou Captain Meng Heling embezzled the resettlement fees and land of the veterans, and also bullied their wives and daughters, and forced them to die!" ”

embezzled the settling-in allowance and land of the veterans, and bullied their wives and daughters, forcing them to die!

These words kept echoing in the tent, and the voice of the person who said it was old and even trivial, but it was deafening, so that the three people present could not come back to their senses.

Rao is Shen Bai has lived two lives, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but feel anger in his chest!

Those retired soldiers, but those who have been on the battlefield with Zhenguo Gong, killed foreign criminals, and shed blood and sweat for Zhaoling, how can these people dare to do such a thing!?

Gu Hengzhou was so stunned that he couldn't speak, Zhao Che also widened his eyes slightly, and the hand on the table couldn't help but clench into a fist.

Shen Bai's mind was much more mature than the two of them, and after being silent for a while, he barely calmed down, and asked Zhang Dahai as calmly as possible: "There should be a list of soldiers who have retired from the battlefield in the captain's battalion, can it be preserved?" ”

Zhang Dahai said: "It has been burned. ”

Shen Bai nodded and looked at Zhao Che calmly: "Is there anything else Your Highness would like to ask?" ”

Zhao Che lifted his eyes and looked at Shen Bai, but he only saw a dark coldness from the bottom of her eyes.

Those soldiers who have retired from the border passes will be specially sent back to their hometowns by the central part of Beijing, and the military department will send officials to various places every year to inspect the troops.

Meng Heling dared to swallow privately, that is, he had finished counting so many people up and down, and these people were silenced and kept silent about the court, so the court couldn't hear any sound.

Meng Heling deserves to die for his crimes, shouldn't these people who conceal it and not report it die?

But so many people are full of the court, if all of them are killed, I am afraid that the corpses will be piled up.

There is a saying in Zhaoling that the law does not blame the public.

Just like tonight, they knew that so many people in the school captain camp were accomplices who contributed to the unhealthy trend in Muzhou, but they couldn't kill all the tens of thousands of people and horses in the school captain camp to comfort those innocent dead souls.

After a long time, Zhao Che said coldly: "Stand down!" ”

Zhang Dahai staggered up and exited the tent, Zhao Che glanced at Shen Bai, raised his hand and waved, signaling her to withdraw as well.

Shen Bo silently withdrew from the tent, and when he went out, a cold wind rolled in from outside, and the candle flame on the table shook tremblingly.

The curtain was lowered, and the candle flame stabilized, and a faint spark exploded with a snap.

Zhao Che lifted his eyes and looked at Gu Hengzhou: "What do you think of this matter?" ”

Zhao Che has learned the art of the emperor since he was a child, the way of governing the country, and Gu Hengzhou is still good at managing the army.

Gu Hengzhou's chest was full of anger and burned badly, he wanted to immediately draw his sword and go out to cut off the heads of a few people to vent his anger, but reason finally defeated the impulse, he gritted his teeth and said to Zhao Che in a cold voice: "Anyone who holds the position of head of a hundred households or above in the camp will be punished by military law, beheaded and shown to the public, and the others will be punished with fifty canes to clean up discipline!" ”

There are not 100 people and 1,000 people in the lieutenant camp, but 40,000 people, these people are not wood, they are flesh and blood, alive, and have their own brains, but if they have a little bloody righteousness, they will not watch Meng Heling as the party to blame.

They are by no means innocent, they just die here directly, it is really cheap for them.

Gu Hengzhou lifted his clothes and knelt down in front of Zhao Che: "This group of people is inferior, I am afraid that the newly appointed lieutenant of the DPRK and China will be difficult to suppress them, after returning to Beijing, I will ask Your Majesty for orders and go to Muzhou to be a lieutenant!" ”

Lingzhou is the richest and most prosperous place in Zhaoling, and it is also the place with the most abundant weapons, grain and grass.

The conditions of Muzhou are very different from those of Lingzhou in all aspects, if you don't know and hear that Gu Hengzhou was appointed to Muzhou as a captain, I am afraid that you will wonder if the royal family is dissatisfied with Zhenguo Gong and deliberately makes things difficult.

Zhao Che looked at Gu Hengzhou with obscure eyes: "Xingyuan is the most capable general in Zhaoling, do you want to ruin your future because of your will?" ”

"Wechen is by no means willful!" Gu Hengzhou slammed his head on the ground, "Wechen vouched for his life, in less than two years, Wechen will polish this group of people into an indestructible sword, and Wechen will let them shed their last drop of blood on the battlefield to atone for their past inaction!" ”

As a general, the heart must be like iron, and the blood must be like ice, so that it can withstand life and death, and can withstand the sword and sword.

Gu Hengzhou didn't think he could do this before, but today he felt that it was not difficult, this group of people was not a good person, and dying for the country was the only reason for them to live.

Gu Hengzhou's attitude was very resolute, Zhao Che was shocked for a while, thought for a while and said: "After the palace returns to Beijing, it will carry out drastic rectification, if Xingyuan insists on coming to Muzhou, the palace will not be able to spare hands to allocate materials and manpower for you, so you are still willing to go to Muzhou to be a captain?" ”

Growing up in Hanjing, it is hard enough to be a captain in the military camp, but if you go to Muzhou to be a captain, it is no different from being tortured.

Zhao Che thought that Gu Hengzhou would hesitate, but as soon as his words fell, Gu Hengzhou opened his mouth and said: "Weichen is willing, the previous captain will be treated whatever Weichen is, and His Royal Highness does not have to treat Weichen preferentially." ”

The last thing people in the Gu family like is to be taken care of because it is a question of their ability.

Speaking of which, Zhao Che had no reason to refuse, and sighed after thinking for a while: "This matter will be talked about after returning to Beijing, even if the palace agrees, my father will not agree." ”

Kneeling in front of him was the only son of Zhenguo Gong, who had been galloping on the battlefield for decades, and in order to be born and die in Zhaoling, he would send his only son to Muzhou, which was unreasonable.

Gu Hengzhou was already resolute, and said in a deep voice: "Weichen will find a way to persuade Your Majesty, Your Highness Xie is considerate!" ”

His heart was overwhelmed by an invisible boulder, and Zhao Che asked Gu Hengzhou to leave first.

Gu Hengzhou got up and withdrew from the tent, and after walking a few steps, Shen Bai jumped down from a tree.

The sky was already white, the golden morning light was projecting a little from the clouds, the night was gradually fading, and the light was coming.

Shen Bai walked up to Gu Hengzhou with his hands behind his back, bent down and patted his knee, and said lazily: "Kneel for Your Highness again, you want to be the captain of Muzhou, Your Highness agreed?" ”

The morning light was cold and soft, she hadn't slept all night, but there was no tiredness on her face, her eyes were bright and fire, as if she would never be tired, and she could guess what he was thinking as soon as she opened her mouth.

Gu Hengzhou stiffened his face and didn't speak, Shen Bai looked up at the sky, his eyebrows and eyes curled into a smile, and said to himself: "Actually, Muzhou is also very good, there are tea mountains everywhere, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the air is also very good, if Brother Gu comes here to be a captain, he can often bring me some good tea cakes, and Hanjing is not far from here, and it can be reached in five days at most, day and night, very fast." ”

Before he could report the matter to the palace, she seemed to be seeing him off.

Gu Hengzhou had a lot to say, but when he saw Shen Bai's smiling face, he turned into a submissive echo as soon as he opened his mouth: "Well, it's very fast." ”

Shen Bai was very happy to hear him say this, not only his eyebrows and eyes were crooked, but the corners of his mouth were raised: "Brother Gu, don't worry, when the time comes, I will often write to you to let you know the big and small matters that are happening in Beijing, and as soon as I am free, I will come to Muzhou to see you, and at that time, you can't let me go, you have to eat and drink well for me to stay." ”

This seems to be her style, Gu Hengzhou said lightly: "Okay." ”

"I still want good tea, it's best to ask for Ming Qian tea."

"Okay."

"I've come all the way to see you, and you have to find time to play with me even if you have every chance."

"Okay."

"And more!"

Gu Hengzhou was just about to respond, when Shen Bai suddenly reached out and hooked his neck, tiptoeing closer.

Her movements were too fast, Gu Hengzhou was defenseless, and she was hooked and bent down.

The distance between the two suddenly became very close, and all her breath sprayed on his face, and he could clearly see that her eyes were as curved as the moon, reflecting his cold and indifferent face, but her eyes were as bright as stars, and they actually dyed him a little warm.

Gu Hengzhou heard her say: "Brother Gu, there are many girls in Muzhou, you are only allowed to train soldiers, and you are not allowed to like them." ”

She made a reasonable request, as if she was his fiancΓ©e who had a marriage contract with him, but she tied her hair, wore men's clothes, and wore thick eyebrows, and she was clearly still the little liar who was not afraid of heaven and earth.

Gu Hengzhou just wanted to refuse, but Shen Bai hooked his neck with both hands, and deliberately changed to a soft and soft female voice to coquetry: "Brother Gu, promise others, okay?" ”

She learned from the girl in Hualou to twist her waist and stomp her feet, although her voice was charming, her movements were nondescript, Gu Hengzhou reached out to wrap her waist, I wanted her not to move, after holding the thin and soft waist, some messy pictures suddenly appeared in my head, and I forgot what I wanted to say for a while, but felt that my throat was dry and astringent.

The Adam's apple instinctively rolled up and down, Gu Hengzhou stiffened, and was about to let go, Shen Bai held his hand close to his waist, looked at him with a smile and said, "Brother Gu, I just saw you swallow saliva, are you thirsty?" ”

She smiled ill-intentionedly, like a gentleman who went to visit the flower building, obviously he was much taller than her, holding her waist, but it was like she spent money to tease him.

Gu Hengzhou's face became more and more cold, contrary to his original intention, and said casually: "Don't be thirsty!" ”

The voice was hoarse, revealing two points of emotion.

He broke away from Shen Bai and quickly took a few steps forward.

Shen Bai licked his lower lip, trotted a few steps to catch up, stopped in front of Gu Hengzhou, and said openly: "Brother Gu is not thirsty, I am thirsty!" ”

After speaking, he grabbed Gu Hengzhou's collar, just like waking up in the Tai Academy class on the first day, pulled down his unbending body like a pine and cypress, stood on tiptoe, and covered the two thin lips that were always tightly pursed.

I haven't drunk water all night, my lips are a little dry, and a little cold.

The distance was too close, and Shen Bai felt Gu Hengzhou's eyelashes flutter, which caused a slight itch on her face, and her heart also itched.

After a night of trouble, there was no one moving around in the lieutenant's camp at this time, but Shen Bai didn't dare to be too presumptuous, he only kissed Gu Hengzhou for a while and then let go, raised his head and was about to speak, his waist was tightly clamped, Gu Hengzhou leaned over against her forehead, and the dark color under his eyes was surging like waves.
