The great man of chivalry, for the country and the people!

Qi Ning would not feel that he was a hero for the country and the people, but let him see a catastrophe that would take the lives of countless people, but he was indifferent, he would never be able to do it. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The dignified and loyal marquis, the number one powerful minister of the empire, was indifferent at this life-and-death moment, and Qi Ning's heart was cold.

He knew that if it was the old marquis in brocade clothes or Qi Jing coming tonight, Sima Lan's reply might not be like this.

He knew that he had just inherited the title, although he had the golden sign of the Marquis of Jinyi, but the Marquis was as old as the old man, and in the eyes of many people, the Marquis of Jinyi had long since lost the prestige of the past.

In Sima Lan's eyes, his Jinyi Marquis is just a little doll, although they are all ranked among the four hereditary candidates, but the actual status of the two sides is completely unequal.

How can a young man who only holds a knighthood but does not have much real power be compared to the first minister of the empire?

It's not that he didn't think about the occasion when he would meet Sima Lan for the first time, and even thought about what it would be like at that time, but he didn't expect that the first time they met, they broke up unhappily.

It's just that he doesn't have any extra time to care about Sima Lan's indifference.

Out of the Hou Mansion, the four guards of the Zhongyi Hou Mansion who were guarding the door did not dare to be the slightest slack this time, they all bowed slightly, Zhao Wuxian had already greeted him, and he did not speak, but he had already judged the result of the matter from Qi Ning's expression.

Walking down the steps, Zhao Wuxian finally said: "Master Hou, there are still more than two hours before dawn, for today's plan, I can only go to the palace gate to wait, wait for the palace gate to open, and immediately face the saint." ”

"The palace door is wide open, and it will take at least three hours, even if you can see the emperor immediately, it is impossible for the emperor to quickly mobilize troops and horses." Qi Ning was quite familiar with the current situation of the little emperor Longtai, and frowned: "Maybe you have to summon the Marquis of Zhongyi into the palace to discuss, even if there is the emperor's will, the Marquis of Zhongyi will mobilize troops and horses, at least after five or six hours." After a pause, he said: "If the epidemic virus starts to break out tomorrow, it may not be a big deal if it is delayed for five or six hours today, but if the epidemic virus breaks out today, these five or six hours will be a few hours of life and death." ”

Zhao Wuxian's expression was grim, and he said: "But if the Marquis of Zhongyi does not transfer troops, he can only go to ask the emperor's holy decree, and in addition, no one can mobilize troops and horses, and no one dares to transfer troops." ”

"There is one last possibility!" Qi Ning groaned slightly, and finally said, "Do you know where Xue Lingfeng lives?" ”

"Xue Lingfeng?" Zhao Wushu said: "Master Hou, do you want Xue Lingfeng to transfer troops?" This...... This is impossible, without the emperor's will, even the Marquis of Zhongyi did not come forward, Xue Lingfeng would never dare to move. ”

Qi Ning asked, "You said that Xue Lingfeng used to be in ...... Served as a soldier under his father? ”

"Xue Lingfeng was born in a lowly background, although he has the talent to lead troops to fight, but without the eclecticism of a general, he would not be able to get to today's position." Zhao Wuxian spoke concisely, "But he is now the commander of the Tiger God Battalion, and he will never dare to transfer troops without authorization." ”

Qi Ning smiled faintly: "I have no other way, I can't see the emperor now, and the Marquis of Zhongyi will not transfer troops, whether it is successful or not, I can only go to him to give it a try." ”

Seeing Qi Ning's resolute attitude, Zhao Wuxian no longer hesitated, nodded and said, "Master Hou, let's go now!" ”

Xue Lingfeng, as the leader of the Tiger God Battalion, although he did not have any title, everyone knew the importance of his position.

He is the gatekeeper of Jianye Capital, but this gatekeeper is the most important gatekeeper in the world.

Xue Lingfeng's house is not big, and it can't be compared with the huge Hou Mansion at all, it looks like the scale of the courtyard of an ordinary large household, and the big stone lion standing in front of the door is naturally not like the big stone lion standing in front of the Jinyi Hou Mansion.

Qi Ning came to the door in the middle of the night and woke up Xue Mansion, compared to the time of sitting in the lobby of Zhongyi Hou Mansion waiting for Sima Lan, Xue Lingfeng almost didn't let Qi Ning wait, Qi Ning's butt was not hot yet, and as soon as the tea came up, Xue Lingfeng had already come in.

Xue Lingfeng walked as always, even if he had just gotten up from the warm bed, but it was only a short time, but he was already full of energy, and when he saw Qi Ning, he stepped forward and said: "Humble Xue Lingfeng, see Master Hou!" He was about to kneel down on one knee, but Qi Ning grabbed it and said with a smile: "Uncle Xue, don't be surprised if you disturb late at night!" ”

Xue Lingfeng is worthy of being a soldier, he speaks and does things neatly, and said directly: "Hou Ye came late at night, there must be urgent orders, Hou Ye needs to serve in a humble position, but it doesn't matter, as long as he can do it, Xue Lingfeng will never shirk." ”

Qi Ning knew that time was pressing, so he didn't talk nonsense, and told Xue Lingfeng the matter in the most concise way.

Xue Lingfeng frowned and asked, "So, Hou Ye just came from the Zhongyi Hou Mansion?" ”

Qi Ning knew that it was best not to hide anything from such a character, so he simply said: "Yes, but the Marquis of Zhongyi will not transfer troops, so I want to think about it, but I can only find you here." ”

"What does Master Hou mean by letting Xue transfer the Tiger God Battalion?" Xue Lingfeng's eyes were like lightning, staring at Qi Ning's eyes: "Does Master Hou know that without an order, transferring troops without authorization is tantamount to rebellion?" ”

Qi Ning said: "I know! ”

"Master Hou knows that if Xue goes to transfer troops now, not only will Xue be a capital crime, but Master Hou will also be implicated." Xue Lingfeng said: "Hou Ye first found the Hou of Zhongyi, the Hou of Zhongyi knew that the Hou Ye wanted to transfer troops, and after being refused, he went directly to Xue, and it was impossible to hide this matter, so as long as Xue transferred troops and horses, everyone knew that it had something to do with Hou Ye, and Xue wanted to conceal it. ”

Qi Ning smiled faintly and said, "I know." In fact, I also thought on the road that if I came to you to transfer troops, both of us would probably be convicted, and the people of the Jinyi Marquis Mansion would probably be implicated. ”

"It's not a possibility, but it's a sure offense!" Xue Lingfeng spoke crisply and neatly: "Even if it is found out that Hou Ye is not preparing to rebel, the responsibility for transferring troops without authorization will not be forgiven." After a pause, he said: "Xue believes that there will be many people who want to see the Jinyi Marquis Mansion in ashes, and they will definitely take this opportunity to kill the Hou Ye!" ”

Qi Ning frowned.

"So Master Hou has to think twice." Xue Lingfeng said slowly: "Master Hou wants to ask himself, is it worth doing this?" Do you want to see the bloodline of Jinyihou cut off? ”

He looked solemn and sat like a clock.

Xue Lingfeng did not speak in a hurry, and from his tone, he couldn't guess his attitude towards this matter at all, he spoke crisply and neatly, without the slightest roundabout, and every sentence was stating extremely realistic facts.

Qi Ning was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Uncle Xue, in fact, how many people are infected, I can't be sure, maybe only a few dozen, maybe hundreds, maybe even thousands of people have been infected, and after the outbreak of the epidemic, I don't know what the scene will be like then." He sighed and said, "Maybe it's just a dozen or dozens of poison-haired people running around the streets, and they can be easily subdued, but there may be hundreds or thousands of people rushing out and breaking out into a shocking disaster." ”

Xue Lingfeng nodded slightly, his eyes were blazing, and said, "And Master Hou also said just now that the epidemic virus may break out today, but it may also be tomorrow." ”

"Yes!" Qi Ning said: "Only today and tomorrow." ”

Qi Ning trusts Tang Nuo, he and Tang Nuo actually don't have much real contact, and the two of them may not have more than a hundred words together, but Qi Ning just believes that what Tang Nuo said is true.

And he trusts Donno's judgment.

Since Tang Nuo broke out only today and tomorrow, Qi Ning was convinced of this deep down.

Xue Lingfeng's eyes were deep, and he said slowly: "Has Master Hou ever thought about what kind of consequences we will face if the epidemic virus does not break out today, and we now transfer troops to block the road in the capital?" "I can tell you that even if the epidemic breaks out tomorrow, we will be arrested today for treason, and if anyone wants to kill us, we may be killed on the spot." ”

Qi Ning took a deep breath.

Xue Lingfeng continued: "Hou Ye can't determine the time of the outbreak of the epidemic, nor can he determine the number of people infected, let alone determine whether the situation after the outbreak of the epidemic virus is controllable or uncontrollable. ”

Zhao Wuxian had been standing aside, and finally said at this time: "Commander Xue, what can be determined at present is that the source of the epidemic virus started from the beggar gang, and the beggar gang is the largest group of people in Beijing, many of them have been infected, and there have been infected people on the Qinhuai River, a painting boat, half of the people have been infected, is this situation serious?" ”

Xue Lingfeng nodded and said, "The Beggar Gang and Qinhuai River are the two groups of people with the largest flow in the capital. ”

"Although Master Hou can't determine the number of infected people, I dare to say that the number of infected people will never be in the minority." Zhao Wuxian said: "Once the epidemic virus breaks out, without preparation in advance, it will definitely be a monstrous disaster. ”

Xue Lingfeng's expression was solemn, and he didn't speak, just looked at Qi Ning.

Qi Ning was silent for a while, then finally looked up at Xue Lingfeng, and said slowly: "Actually, no one in the Jinyi Hou Mansion is currently infected, if I lie in the Hou Mansion and sleep now, and don't ask about things outside the window, no one will blame me." ”

"Yes!" Xue Lingfeng nodded.

"Even if there is a real outbreak of the epidemic in Beijing, no matter how big or small it is, as soon as the gate of the Hou Mansion in Jinyi is closed, plus the guards in the Hou Mansion, I believe that no infected person will be able to break into the Hou Mansion." Qi Ning's voice was slow and solemn: "I sent someone to the Shenhou Mansion to inform me, and even found the Marquis of Zhongyi, logically speaking, I have done my best and done my best, whether the court can deal with it in time has nothing to do with me, and I have a clear conscience." ”

Xue Lingfeng nodded again.

"If I insist on doing a lot of things, it is likely that the Jinyi Marquis Mansion will face a catastrophe." Qi Ning sighed: "As you said, if someone wants to kill the Marquis of Jinyi, they will not let go of this opportunity." ”

Xue Lingfeng said: "So Hou Ye will return to the Hou Mansion now, take a hot bath, eat something, and go to bed again, no matter what happens after that, Hou Ye and the Jinyi Hou Mansion will be safe and sound." ”

Qi Ning smiled slightly and said, "Actually, this is a very good choice, and there is no need to even think about it, maybe many people don't have to make a choice at all." He leaned forward slightly, stared at Xue Lingfeng, and said, "But if I do that, I won't be me, and I won't wear the crown and hat of the Marquis of Jinyi on my head!" ”
