Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Ministry of War

In front of the yamen, people come and go.

More than a dozen guards held their waist knives and blocked the entrance of the government office, and the people who came in and out to catch fast and do errands were blocked, and the people at the door gathered more and more.

Under the steps, Zhao Kuo looked at Su Lu with a struggling expression.

This case is also classified and cannot be disclosed, but although the person is caught, the other party refuses to admit it, and the auxiliary prince is forced to hand over the person here, and the life of the government is really not good.

Su Lu didn't ask, and he couldn't take the initiative to say it, if he leaked the case, his own adults would be even more passive at that time.

Changning tugged at Su Lu's sleeve: "My lord, we still have to go to the military department to report on our work, if we go late, Lord Li will be angry." ”

Su Lu glanced at the guards in front of the palace, said goodbye to Zhao Kuo, and said, "I still have something to do, let's go back and talk about it, Zhao Zhutou." ”

Zhao Kuo's face was disappointed, but he had something to do, so he had to say goodbye.

The two walked for a while, away from the mansion, and Changning reminded Su Lu and said: "My lord, the Duke of Fuguo is the eldest son of the emperor, and we can't interfere easily, otherwise it will be very unfavorable to the princess's situation whether it succeeds or not." ”

Su Lu shook his head: "Changning, you're not right, who are we, the Northern Border Guards, how could they meddle in the case of the government office, I just felt that the momentum of this guard was a little strange, that guard should have killed people in the past few days, in this capital, what can they kill?" ”

"Murder?"

Changning covered his mouth, looked around in fear, pulled Su Lu and left.

"My lord, let's hurry to the military department, the water in the capital is too deep, and it involves the auxiliary prince, so we can't get involved, let's take a walk."

The two discussed the intricate relationships in the capital, and finally arrived at the military headquarters.

Changning handed over Su Lu's military affairs booklet, and the guards guarding the door looked at it, and snorted with a nose that was not a nose and eyes that were not eyes.

"Waiting"

Then I turned around and went in to report.

After a long time, the reported guards came back slowly, and without speaking, they just stood still at the door.

Su Lu took the performance of the guards guarding the gate in his eyes, and his heart was worthy of being the highest yamen of the guards, even a small soldier guarding the gate was so atmospheric, he dared to throw his face to show himself as a guerrilla general, well, there was also a Zhaowu captain who was six grades next to him.

Changning is the princess's guard commander, He has been so angry, and stands in front of the guards with a cold face: "Do you know who is behind me, dare to press the book and not report it!" ”

Several guards guarding the gate immediately surrounded them, looking at their appearance, they looked like they would arrest you if they dared to make trouble.

Su Lu couldn't help but be silent, let Changning take the thunder for him, took two steps forward, stopped Changning behind him, took out his official credentials, handed them over and said:

"I am a colleague with General Lin Tong, and this time I came from the Xuanfu to report on my work, so it's convenient for my brother."

When several guards heard Lin Tong's name, their faces changed significantly, and one of the guards, who looked like a group leader, took the official certificate, looked at it twice, and returned the official certificate to Su Lu in a slippery manner.

"General, wait a minute, I'll ask if I can insert your paperwork in the front, after all, I'm about to go to the office, and I can't let you run again in the afternoon."

After saying that, the guy sneaked in.

It didn't take long for the captain to come out, followed by an official in a scarlet robe, and greeted Su Lu.

"It's the governor of Sulu who came, please, please."

The official looked kind, and when he saw the captain behind Su Lu, he was obviously stunned for a moment, and after a while, he saluted Changning with a smile: "Xiaguan Yantong has seen the commander of Changning, if there is any negligence in the guards, Yantong has made amends to you, please forgive the commander." ”

After Yan Tong finished speaking, he reprimanded several guards guarding the gate: "Don't apologize to Commander Changning and Governor Su Du yet." ”

A few guards guarding the door panicked, only then did they know that they had neglected the Buddha, especially the guards who sent the booklets, their faces were white, he was on duty on the first day, he thought he could fake the tiger, but he didn't expect to kick the iron plate on the first day.

Changning snorted coldly and pointed to a few trembling guards: "You guys can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, he walked to the yamen.

Yan Tong's face changed, he glanced at a few guards, and kept a few people in mind, the people of the princess's mansion can't be offended, these janitor boys, the good days are over.

"Lord Yan, help."

The guards who delivered the pamphlet knelt at that time.

Yan Tong snorted: "What kind of place is this, the military department, one of the six departments, ushered in and sent to the generals and high-ranking officials, not a place for you to spread wild, dare to bring up the habits below, no one can save you." ”

Yan Tong took Su Lu and Changning into the front office, passed through the two courtyards, and entered the innermost courtyard.

"Li Shangshu has ordered, bring him when you come, but just now there was a murder in the camp in Xicheng, and more than a dozen forbidden soldiers were killed, and Li Shangshu hurried over."

Changning's face was very stinky: "What, Lord Yan means that we ran away in vain this time?" ”

Yan Tong didn't dare to offend this grandmother, and immediately said with a smile: "No, no, Zhou Shilang is also here, this is Zhou Shilang's house, wait a while." ”

Yan Tong knocked on the door, handed in the military affairs booklet, and welcomed the two in.

Zhou Shilang was wearing a purple robe, with a ruddy complexion, a long beard, and a gauze crown on his head, when he heard Yan Tong's introduction, he raised his head from the middle of a pile of documents, saw Changning, and stood up.

"The commander of Changning is also here, Su Dudu, please sit down, Su Dudu has repeatedly made military exploits, I thought he was a middle-aged general, but I didn't expect it to be a young hero, wait a minute, I approved this document."

After approving a booklet, Zhou Shilang handed the booklet to the person next to him, and instructed: "Implement it as soon as possible, this is related to the lifeblood of the Xiting Guard, and it must be implemented as soon as possible." ”

Zhou Shilang came around from behind the case, and said with a smile: "Wait a minute, Su Dudu's debriefing documents are not complicated, according to the system, Su Dudu should be familiar with it for a few days before going to Dingxiang Army to take office, but in recent days, there have been many events in Beijing, so it will no longer be troublesome, and Su Dudu can go directly to take office in these two days." ”

Su Lu was a little strange: "What happened in Beijing that made the military department a little messy?" ”

Zhou Shilang stroked his long beard: "Su Dudu is a general in the army, I will say it bluntly, the eldest son of the emperor intervened in the guards and wanted to fight for the position of the governor of the army, but after being refuted by the emperor, he seemed to be dissatisfied and recalled the auxiliary princes who took refuge in him." ”

After speaking, Zhou Shilang glanced at Changning next to him, and his tone was a little irritable: "The family affairs of the Son of Heaven, the military department should not interfere, but the auxiliary prince relied on the power of the emperor's eldest son, made enemies everywhere, and failed to win over the people of the four major battalions, so he was ruthless and did not give the military department face at all." ”

Su Lu didn't interject, this is the struggle of the upper echelons, his strength is low, he can't interject easily, Zhou Shilang can be a soldier of the army, he is definitely not a simple person, he said this to himself today, it must be with a purpose, he is new to the city, and he can't wade into troubled waters.

After Zhou Shilang finished speaking, seeing that Su Lu had not spoken, he was helpless in his heart, knowing that this invincible general who had been in charge of troops in the north would definitely not be so easy to win over, and his performance just now was in vain.

"This is the new official certificate and documents of the Su Du Governor, by the way, there are also new robes and armor weapons, the Su Du Governor can go to the house to get them, I will not keep the Du Du here, there are too many things in the ministry."

"Knock Knock"

There was a quick knock on the door.

Zhou Shilang frowned and opened his mouth to let people in.

Yan Tong came in with a pale face, and his voice was hurried: "My lord, something is wrong, the Dingxiang army mutinied." ”
