Chapter 34: Provocation

Xiao Xuan led a dozen of Wang Chengen's cronies and more than twenty officers and non-commissioned officers selected from the battalion to the square in front of the Imperial Horse Prison Gate and the adjacent streets, the entire square and streets were already crowded with people like a bazaar rarely seen anywhere in this era. Perhaps due to the influence of the Qing Dynasty and later, Xiao Xuan has always felt that the "native" people in the capital do not necessarily think highly of the Son of Heaven or the central government because of their proximity to the Son of Heaven and the central government.

However, Xiao Xuan still underestimated the wisdom of the people in the capital. Whether the Son of Heaven or the Central Committee should divide things for a while, people still understand this truth. At this moment, the news of the affairs of the soldiers in the palace has just spread in the capital, and no one knows what the role of this new emperor who has just come up is. If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, if you are a stunned emperor, it is difficult to say whether all the people who meet the conditions and do not come to sign up will be "Fa-corrected". The relatives of the emperor may be able to ignore the law, but it is difficult to say that the ordinary people with such a big background are not so big.

Unlike the people around Xiao Xuan who had some sense of discipline in military training, these recruited teenagers outside the Imperial Horse Prison did not have much sense of discipline at this moment, and many of them were making loud noises and laughing. These people who dare to talk, laugh, make loud noises and even fight do not seem to be from ordinary people, and only in this way can ordinary people dare not provoke the children of the gentlemen crowded into the obvious front position among these tens of thousands of people.

Looking at the state of this group of gentlemen from afar, Xiao Xuan had a premonition that things might not be going very well. Xiao Xuan felt that he didn't have much political wisdom and experience in dealing with the world, and it was likely that he didn't even have Chongzhen's ability in these aspects, so the first thing he thought of was whether to throw a million enemies among this group of second ancestors and kill a hundred thousand people. But if it causes a collapse of tens of thousands of people, it will not be good to scare away all the people who come to sign up.

After thinking for a while, Xiao Xuan thought of a plot such as "Kangxi Weifu Private Interview", so he took a few steps back and hid behind the gate of the Imperial Horse Prison and whispered to a cronie non-commissioned officer next to him: "Change your clothes quickly!" ”

"Huh? Right here? Holy ... ”

"Holy what is holy? It's all your own people, are you afraid that there will be anyone around you who dares to look at it? Xiao Xuan said in a somewhat stern tone.

In desperation, the entourage had to change attachments with Xiao Xuan, and at this time, Xiao Xuan was dressed in a soldier's attire, not even an officer. After all, according to the Ming military system, there are no dozens of grassroots officers and dozens of non-commissioned officers in the general team of 500 people, this is just Xiao Xuan's temporary idea.

Worried about any danger and accidents, Xiao Xuan, who had changed his outfit, called many people around him and admonished: "You people remember, if those people have a conflict with me, don't rush over too quickly." They have to knock me to the ground first, so you can come out with armor to help, you know? ”

"This... Isn't that a bit of a thing? ”

"That's the only way to give them a leg up in the name of justice. . . ."

In this way, Xiao Xuan, who was dressed in a small soldier costume and had no guys in his hands, walked out with twenty relatives and dispersed according to Xiao Xuan's requirements to maintain order, and selected troops according to the principles agreed before.

"Hey, tell me about you. You guys come here! Xiao Xuan said to a group of gentlemen who were talking and laughing at this time.

Hearing this, the people near the table thought that they should have no problem applying, and they came to the front with a smile. Many people are still surrounded by people who are shaving and patting horses, and they are not really here to apply.

At this time, Xiao Xuan suddenly unexpectedly lifted the brush stained in ink and threw it out on the face of the heavy man, this provocative action actually stunned these teenagers who came to sign up.

"Well, what's the matter with you kid? Although you are a seven-rank official in front of the prime minister, you soldiers who don't even have a grade still dare to be arrogant in front of the master? Looking for a beating, isn't it? ”

Seeing this kind of thing, Xiao Xuan was also a little nervous for a while, and his habitual heart was frightened, and he hurriedly said: "It's just... Don't get me wrong, it's just a record, a record, you are the chosen ones ... ”

Hearing this, several teenagers around him who were about to move were a little stunned, but they couldn't help cursing: "What the hell are these rules? You don't believe that this is set by the emperor, eighty percent is what the hell do you want to do, right? ”

The soft words in a panic also made Xiao Xuan really regret and annoyed, but a trace of doubt was also angry in his heart: This imperial horse eunuch is the real power yamen in the palace on the same level as the celebrant eunuch. In a sense, I am afraid that the status is still above the celebrant supervisor, because he has the key violent resources in the palace. It's just that in the Zhu Yuanzhang era, in order to prevent the rebellion of the eunuchs in the Tang and Han dynasties, this kind of division of power between departments was more serious, and the lower echelons of the large and small systems had more status.

In such a place, which family dares to call himself a master and be so wild? Aren't you afraid that the emperor will come out in person? It's quite possible. So I guessed that things might not be so simple.

Of course, seeing that these teenagers seemed to be clean on their bodies and hands, and did not carry any murder weapons, Xiao Xuan's courage became stronger: "It's not that we want to do something, you listen to me after I finish speaking: of course you gentlemen who didn't treat themselves as an ordinary teenager in the first place have to make a mark with ink, do you see the same in other places?" Just avoid you scoundrels sticking like a dog's skin plaster... ”

"Hey? Hit him! ”

"Yes! Above! ”

As he spoke, more than a dozen young men who were relatively close to Xiao Xuan pounced, Xiao Xuan knew that he had two sons in his hands, not to mention ten, and one with a little experience was also not sure, so he was prepared to retreat.

It's just that Xiao Xuan still underestimated the skill and speed of this group of people, and was caught up and grabbed by the shoulder before he ran to the gate of the imperial horse room. At this time, ten heavily armed young officers and soldiers and a dozen or so heavily armed cronies under Wang Chengen suddenly rushed out, warning them while carrying spears.

However, at this time, something unexpected happened, seeing this situation, not only were the people around Xiao Xuan not scared away at the first time, but even many people who had been hiding in the crowd for a long time began to show their weapons and rushed over at this time, and the script seemed to be a little beyond Xiao Xuan's expectations.

A scuffle soon unfolded in the conscription place near the gate of the Imperial Horse Prison, and Xiao Xuan, who was desperately trying to escape from death, had a premonition: I am afraid that it may not be as simple as a few squirting troubles, it is likely that this is a premeditated obstruction and trouble. The reason is probably self-evident, it should be that some people are unwilling to take the opportunity to expand the team to a few thousand people at this time.
