Chapter 2: The Blue Dragon Glaive (2)
Located in front of the Dongchang Admiral's Mansion on the north side of Dong'an Gate, the two servants standing guard recognized Luo Shiyin and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
"Hurry up and inform Lord Zhang, the commander of Jinyiwei will ask Luo Shiyin to see you!" Luo Shiyin instructed the two guards standing guard.
"Yes, wait a minute, sir." One of them immediately ran in to report the news.
"Hey, hey, what gust of wind blew you, Lord Luo!" It took a long time for the Dongchang Governor to get the news, and then he walked out of the hall of the Admiral's Mansion and came to the courtyard surrounded by several subordinates, and went out to greet Luo Shiyin, whose unique sharp, contrived, and unmasculine voice made Luo Shiyin get goosebumps every time he listened to it.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, I miss you, my lord, so I came to visit!" Luo Shiyin's voice was loud and he stepped forward to greet him.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Come on, you, who doesn't know that you, Lord Luo, have nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace. Zhang Qinwei first laughed hypocritically, and then began to get to the point.
"Yes, Master Zhang. Luo did have something to ask for this time. Luo Shiyin didn't want to go around the bend either.
"What does Lord Luo ask our family to handle?" Zhang Qinwei began to put up the shelf.
"On the emperor's orders, I came to pick up the imprisoned Jinyi Wei Qianhu Shilang, and I hope that Lord Zhang will release him." Luo Shiyin is neither arrogant nor humble.
"Stone ...... Bright? Is this one of the prisoners in custody? Zhang Qinwei pretended to think about it, and at the same time glanced at his subordinates who were questioned.
"Lord Qiqi, there is no such person." The subordinate immediately understood his master's intentions and spoke in a loud voice.
"Lord Zhang, you and I are officials in the same court, and I don't look up to see you when I look down. Some things are better not to be overdone! Luo Shiyin significantly improved his voice.
"Lord Luo, what do you mean by that? Could it be that my dignified Admiral Dongchang will still play tricks on you, right? Zhang Qinwei began to sprinkle and let loose.
"Master Zhang, Luo has something important to do urgently, and I won't talk to you anymore. Look, do you recognize this? Luo Shiyin said and waved his hand behind him.
A brocade guard who came with Luo Shiyin hurriedly put the rosewood box in his arms on the ground in front of Zhang Qinwei's eyes.
"Of course our family recognizes this thing, it is the Blue Dragon Glaive Knife that our family dedicated to the emperor not long ago. How can it end up in your hands? Zhang Qinwei asked with some suspicion.
"As for how it ended up in my hands, I have nothing to say to Luo. In the next trip, I only want to clarify one question, that is, can Master Zhang once say to the saint that this knife is the knife used by Guan Yunchang during the Three Kingdoms period? Luo Shiyin did not answer Zhang Qinwei's question, but deliberately sold a pass.
"Yes, we said it." After listening to Luo Shiyin's words, Zhang Qinwei was a little confused about the true purpose of the other party's trip.
"Master Zhang knows that this Qinglong Yanyue Knife first appeared in the Song Dynasty, and it is impossible to have such a thing during the Three Kingdoms period." Luo Shiyin's eyes were sharp and approached Zhang Qinwei.
"This ...... That's impossible! Zhang Qinwei began to realize the seriousness of the problem.
Could it be that Banzai found out that there was something wrong with this knife and sent Luo Shiyin to investigate. Although Zhang Qinwei has a hard mouth, his heart has already begun to go up and down.
"If Lord Zhang doesn't believe it, you can go to any cultural relics store in the capital and ask, and any shopkeeper with some common sense will understand this matter." Luo Shiyin's face was full of seriousness.
"Is this true?" Zhang Qinwei's tone softened significantly, and he actually opened his mouth to ask Luo Shiyin for confirmation.
"Lord Zhang, it's not Luo who wants to blackmail you, once someone exposes this matter to the saint, this crime of bullying the king ......" Luo Shiyin's eyes were fixed on Zhang Qinwei.
This Qinglong Glaive was originally used by a magistrate in Shanxi to bribe Zhang Qinwei in order to seek promotion, and the magistrate at the time said that this knife was the Qinglong Glaive used by Guan Yu during the Three Kingdoms period. Zhang Qinwei didn't think too much about it at the time, if he got a treasure, he found an opportunity to present it to Emperor Shenzong, he knew that Emperor Shenzong liked to collect. Unexpectedly, his momentary negligence became a lever used by Luo Shiyin to blackmail himself today.
"Lord Luo, we have something to say, it's easy to say. Why don't we go inside and sit down and talk. You see, since you entered the door, we haven't given you some water to drink, I'm really sorry. Let's go into the house and talk. Zhang Qinwei said, holding Luo Shiyin's hand.
"No, Lord Zhang. Luo has official business, so he can't delay at all. Luo Shiyin dodged Zhang Qinwei's pretended outstretched hand.
"Lord Luo, you see that we haven't seen each other for a few days, and when you arrive at my Dongchang Admiral's Mansion, why do I have to do my best to be a landlord. Or please come in the house! Zhang Qinwei smiled all over his face and put on a look of warm invitation, but his mind was quickly calculating countermeasures. Inviting Luo Shiyin into the house to talk was just Zhang Qinwei's delaying tactic.
"Master Zhang, I still don't want to go in, so as not to miss the important things delivered by the saint. If there is indeed no Shi Lang in this Dongchang prison, then Luo can only go back and report to the saint. I hope that after the saint learns that he got the knife that Guan Yunchang used, he will not get angry and hurt the dragon body. Luo Shiyin said, turning around to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey...... Lord Luo, why are you in such a hurry! I asked my subordinates to check again to see if there was such a person as Shi Lang. Zhang Qinwei hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Luo Shiyin, and said in a soothing tone.
"Lord Zhang, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, in fact, there are some things that let each other go, and it will pass. Why make it a lose-loser! You're right? Luo Shiyin also relaxed his tone at the right time.
"Okay, you Luo Shiyin, our family is planted in your hands today. Let's ride a donkey and read the record book - we'll see! Zhang Qinwei gritted his teeth secretly.
"Yes, yes, Lord Luo, everything is easy to discuss, easy to discuss." Zhang Qinwei secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead, "Think about it carefully, is there a person named Shi Lang among the detainees!" He turned to his subordinates and said.
"Oh, I remembered that there was indeed a man named Shi Lang!" Zhang Qinwei's subordinate understood the meaning of his boss's words and hurriedly said.
"Don't let them go yet!" Zhang Qinwei said coldly to his subordinates.
"Yes, the little ones will do it." Zhang Qinwei's subordinate answered the promise and hurriedly walked out the door.
"Then thank you, Master Zhang. As for the fake knife, Luo no longer asked. That's the end of it. Luo said goodbye! Luo Shiyin simply bowed his hand to Zhang Qinwei, turned around and followed Zhang Qinwei's men who had gone to release him to Dongchang Prison. The accompanying Jinyi guard hurriedly picked up the Qinglong Yanyue Knife and followed behind Luo Shiyin.
"Lord Luo walks slowly. We won't send it. Zhang Qinwei pretended to send Luo Shiyin out of the door.
Subsequently, Shi Lang was released from prison in Dongchang.
"Thank you for the rescue!" Shi Lang walked out of the prison, and when he saw Luo Shiyin coming, he immediately stepped forward to salute.
Shi Lang inherited his father's position as a Jinyi guard before he was twenty years old, and became a Jinyi guard cavalry specializing in arrest and reconnaissance missions. In the investigation of cases, he relied on his super martial arts and extraordinary wisdom to successfully investigate and handle several major cases, and won the appreciation of the imperial court and the commander Luo Shiyin, and was soon promoted to the official position of Jinyi Wei Qianhu, which is a five-grade official. Some time ago, the imperial court sent him to Zhejiang to investigate the case of the salt gang trafficking in illicit salt, and in the process of handling the case, he secretly let go of the main culprit in the case, the leader of the salt gang. Later, the matter was reported. It is said that Shi Lang, as a Jinyi guard, should be handed over to the Jinyi Weinan Town Fu Division for investigation after committing a crime, but Zhang Qinwei, the governor of Dongchang, took the lead in intervening and put Shi Lang, who was Jinyiwei, into custody of Dongchang for investigation.
"Suffering inside, right?" Luo Shiyin asked with concern.
"It's fine." Shi Lang replied heartily.
"When we go back, we have a good rest, we have something very important to do." Luo Shiyin walked up to Shi Lang, patted Shi Lang's arm hard, and saw that Shi Lang's body was fine, so he waved his hand to his subordinates and returned to the Jinyi Guard to command the yamen.
"Ah, sir. Why is Captain Huang holding such a big box? On the way back to the Jinyi Guard's command yamen, Shi Lang asked.
"This box is a treasure, if you don't have it today, how can Father-in-law Zhang release you easily. Hahaha! Luo Shiyin said heartily.
"Just now in the Dongchang Admiral's Mansion, the Lord used it to stage a good show of anti-guest. I'll tell you about it when I get back. Captain Huang, who was holding the Qinglong Glaive Knife, said to Shi Lang with great interest.
"Well, it's been a long time since I talked to anyone. During my time inside, I was confronted with the filthy walls of my cell and the occasional visit to a few giant rats. I miss the days when my brothers and sisters get along day and night. Shi Lang said happily to Captain Huang.
In fact, Shi Lang did not suffer any torture during the time he was imprisoned in Dongchang Prison. Normally, the prisoners who are imprisoned in Dongchang Prison have to taste the various tortures in Dongchang Prison. Many prisoners lost their lives as a result. From the moment he was arrested by the Dongchang Servants, Shi Lang was mentally prepared to be tortured. From the first time he saw Shi Lang, he was overwhelmed by Shi Lang's handsome and healthy image, and he ordered his subordinates to wait for Shi Lang and not to be tortured. During the days when Shi Lang was in prison, the governor of Dongchang always came to harass Shi Lang every once in a while, and every time he was severely reprimanded by Shi Lang, it was difficult to succeed. Zhang Qinwei was not only not angry, but also fell in love with Shi Lang more and more. On the day Shi Lang was released, Zhang Qinwei didn't think about tea and dinner for a whole day, as if he had lost his soul.
Of course, Shi Lang didn't tell anyone about all this.
Two days later, in an inconspicuous wine shop in the capital, Luo Shiyin summoned four Jinyi guards who were about to follow him into the court to get together briefly, which was regarded as a grand banquet before the expedition. These four are: "Iron Arm God Ape" Shi Lang; Xie Yuan, the "white-faced scholar" who often followed the Mingshenzong to summon foreign envoys; Shi Tianji, the captain of the Jinyi Guard "Thunderbolt King Kong", who was stationed in Shandong; Known as "Langli Jinjiao", he was stationed in Penglai to be stationed in Penglai Jinyi Captain Du Heng. In addition, there are several Jinyi guards who are rushing from all over the country to meet on the Sino-North Korean border.
The next day, before dawn, Luo Shiyin, Shi Lang and a group of five people dressed up in disguise, quietly walked out of the capital, and headed for the northeast direction where North Korea was located.
