Chapter 168: Palm Seal General
The people of the city have been waiting in the streets for nearly a day, and once the anger in their hearts is vented, they can no longer contain it, and they are still a little afraid at first, and when more and more people gather, the people behind them squeeze forward, and the people in front can only involuntarily rush into the city tower and collide with the guards.
The guards slashed a few people, but there were too many people, and they overturned the guards on the stairs one by one, approaching the upper floors one by one.
Fang Daye was the initiator, squeezed out before the situation got out of control, and came to General Zhenbei, "Go up from somewhere else." ”
The tower had two gates, one on the ground and one leading to the city wall.
Cui Teng led more than 100 miscellaneous soldiers to rush upstairs in the name of "protecting General Zuo", and at this time also appeared on the city wall and waved hard to Han Ruzi.
Han Ruzi immediately led people into an alley in the east, and Cui Teng on the city wall waved his hand from time to time in response, not far away, there were steps leading to the top of the city, more than ten soldiers guarded the entrance, panicked, and kept looking in the direction of the city gate, when Cui Teng and the others ran down, no one dared to stop them, and they didn't even dare to ask.
Han Tong was put down by several people, his face was like earth, and his body trembled, "Rebellion, this is rebellion......"
Cui Teng threw the official seal over and said triumphantly: "It's done, it's as simple as that." ”
Han Ruzi grabbed the official seal, found the master book in the crowd, and said to him, "You can order the city gate to be opened, right?" ”
The main book was in a mess, although he followed Cui Teng up and down, he didn't know what he had done, and when he heard General Zhenbei's words, he nodded and shook his head.
Han Ruzi was about to give a formal order, but Fang Daye said, "Don't open the city gate yet." ”
"What does Old General Fang have to say?" Han Ruzi has great respect for this old general.
"The people are in chaos, and opening the door at this time will only add to the chaos, and it will bring chaos to the gate. The general of Zhenbei should gather the soldiers in the city, and then send an order to the city, and let the people go to the yamen to get the customs documents, and release them in batches. ”
After all, Han Ruzi lacked experience, so under the guidance of Fang Daye, he immediately woke up, took people to the yamen first, left some soldiers, and asked them to wait for a while before going to the city gate to issue orders.
There was no one in the yamen, even the old messenger who swept the floor was taken away by Cui Teng, the vehicles at the door were unattended, more than half of the things were lost, calligraphy, paintings, cloths and other things were everywhere, and a group of people who picked things saw the officers and soldiers coming back, and scattered in a hurry.
The chief bookkeeper paused and thumped his chest, "How can I explain to General Wu?" Standing on the street and hesitating for a while, the chief bookkeeper came up with an idea, didn't care about packing up the remaining things, caught up with General Zhenbei, and never left an inch, he couldn't "explain", so he had to let the person with a higher status take responsibility.
Han Ruzi ordered the vehicles on the street to be moved, the gate of the yamen was opened, and all the soldiers stood on both sides of the street to maintain order, but there were no soldiers in the courtyard, and only ten guards were left in the hall.
Han Ruzi sat behind the bookcase, holding the official seal, Cui Teng held the seal clay, the main book held the pen, and asked people to move a large number of official documents, just add the name, reason, date, items and other items, the holder can go out of the customs smoothly, all the way unimpeded.
The first customs clearance document was written to Fang Daye, the reason was "returning to his hometown", the item was "a horse", Han Ruzi stamped, Fang Daye took the paperwork, took a look, put it away carefully, bowed and bowed, and exited the yamen.
I can't even read the main book, "this ...... What is the origin of the old man? Is it so disrespectful in court? ”
Although Han Ruzi can't stay in the great cause of housing, his respect for him has not diminished at all, "The world is peaceful, this is an ordinary old man, the world is in chaos, this is a good horse for thousands of miles." ”
There were too many orders that needed to be issued by Han Ruzi, and only a small part of the people were released, and he also had to mobilize the soldiers in the military camps outside the Guan, recruit generals to the farther counties, and wait to go to investigate the situation of the broken iron city, and inspect the garrison and inventory in the Guan......
The main book was too busy to be busy, but several military officials and generals arrived in time, Shenxiong Guan Qunlong had no leader, they had been looking for the palm seal general, the previous master book did not dare to take responsibility, the left general of the Northern Army only guarded the city gate and refused to meet his subordinates, so these generals saw that after the general Zhenbei held the official seal, they immediately obeyed, and there was no other word.
More and more people rushed to the Yamen, and when the people turned around from the city gate, they were violent, and when they approached the Yamen and saw the soldiers on both sides, their momentum began to decline, and they did not know that those soldiers were even more nervous than them.
When they entered the quiet yamen, the momentum of the people declined, and many people did not even dare to come in, and several bold people entered the yamen, successfully received the documents, and held the documents in their hands after going out, and everyone was angry and lined up in an orderly manner, and at the same time, the soldiers in the city also arrived one after another, and no one dared to make trouble.
The more things became more and more complicated, the more sober Han Ruzi became, so he simply stood up and walked back and forth in the hall, dictating orders to the military officials, supervising the issuance of documents in the main book, and occasionally asking a few words to the people who came in.
Shenxiongguan finally found the backbone, several generals observed for a while, and began to give advice to the general of Zhenbei, when asked, he also knew everything, seeing that the sky was getting dark, Shenxiongguan returned to calm.
I don't know how many documents and orders have been issued in the lobby, a box of ink has been used up, Cui Teng's clothes are stained everywhere, his task is very simple, that is, to follow General Zhenbei around the hall with the ink box, but he looks more excited than the general, nodding his head for a while, gritting his teeth for a while, staring for a while, and trying to speak several times, but he forcibly held back.
Things were almost busy, and Han Ruzi noticed Cui Teng, who had been following him, and patted his head lightly, "Oh no, I forgot to let you out of the city." ”
"Brother-in-law, no, General Zhenbei, let me stay, anyone can do such a thing as sending a letter."
"No, this letter is for Mrs. Cui, preferably from the king of the East China Sea, if he can't go, it has to be you." Han Ruzi immediately asked the master book to sign the document and handed it to Cui Teng: "Take ten soldiers to set off, but Du Chuanyun can't go with you, I have another task to him." ”
Cui Teng took the paperwork and patted the letter in his arms, "I'll set off, brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely get you an official position back, my father doesn't agree, I'll kill myself to show him!" ”
Cui Teng stumbled out of the lobby, called people to prepare horses, and set off overnight.
Du Chuanyun was already eager to try, "Tired Hou, let me do something." ”
"I want you to return to Beijing immediately."
"What are you going to do back to Beijing?"
Han Ruzi originally drafted a letter in his heart, but he felt that it was inappropriate, gave up, and said, "I want you to go back to the Tired Hou Mansion to see Madame, and then come back immediately." ”
"It's as simple as that? Is there a letter? Do you want me to bring a message? ”
Han Ruzi shook his head, "No, but you have to go back quickly, you may encounter obstacles on the way......"
"Hehe, understood, then you don't have to give me the paperwork for customs clearance, that thing is useless, I'll set off too." Du Chuanyun strode out, and turned back at the door, "Give me a copy of the documents from Shenxiong Pass, you don't need to climb up and down here." ”
Han Ruzi smiled and ordered the master to sign the paperwork, looking at Du Chuanyun's back, the uneasiness in his heart did not ease, but became heavier and heavier.
Uncle Wu Xiu suddenly returned to Beijing, the champion Hou sent Han Tong to guard the pass to prevent Han Ruzi from returning south, Cui Xiaojun had no letters for nearly half a month, this is all a bad omen, indicating that something happened in Beijing, but he didn't know anything.
The enemy was on the verge of the situation, and Han Ruzi could not abandon it, so he could only let Du Chuanyun return to Beijing to inquire about the news.
The night is dark, the city gate is closed according to the rules, but the people who have not yet left the customs are not so panicked, simply push the cart home, anyway, the paperwork has been in hand, although the new general is young, but he seems to be a person worth relying on, and staying at home honestly is also an option.
The yamen gradually quieted down, the soldiers on the street returned to their posts, and the family members and servants who temporarily put on armor also resumed their original identities, cleaned the courtyard, tidied up the house, lit the fire and cooked, and took back the remaining items on the street to the yamen.
Han Ruzi also needs this master bookkeeper, he didn't bring many people, and even fewer people were left after he sent them out, Meng E was a personal guard, he couldn't do anything else, he needed more followers.
After things were almost busy, Han Ruzi went to the backyard to visit Han Tong, the left general of the Northern Army.
With Cui Teng's example in front, Han Ruzi didn't want to give up anyone easily, the master and other generals could only appease Shenxiong Pass, but a clan disciple with an official position might subdue a wider area and soldiers.
More than 100 northern soldiers were guarding the gate of the backyard, and when they saw General Zhenbei coming, they all saluted respectfully, they had already come, but they did not try to rescue General Zuo.
In a room in the backyard, Han Tong was still shivering, and the food on the table didn't move.
Han Ruzi entered the house alone, his confidence in Han Tong was reduced by three points, and he said: "Shenxiong Pass has been settled, and I haven't left, you can rest assured." ”
Han Tong raised his head, his eyes full of panic and confusion.
Han Ruzi took out the official seal in his arms, "This thing is just a symbol, the real power still has to be fought for by yourself, with it, you can get twice the result with half the effort." ”
The imperial power lies ten steps away, within a thousand miles, and Han Ruzi feels that he has touched it within ten miles.
Han Tong obviously didn't understand what Han Ruzi was saying, his eyes became more and more confused, and after a while, he said: "I shouldn't accept the invitation of the champion Hou, how good it is to stay in the capital honestly." Alas, ordinary people can always be rewarded for their ambitions, and even worship the prime minister, but the children of Zong Zhi have only one result - death. Why am I so unlucky? I didn't want to get involved in the fight between you, and I didn't want to resist the Huns. It's all an accident, it's a nightmare......"
Han Tong beat his head desperately.
Han Ruzi finally confirmed that this person was not worth wooing, and at the same time, he also had a little contempt for Champion Hou, although Champion Hou had a higher status, a larger army, and more information, Han Ruzi did not regard him as the first enemy.
Han Ruzi didn't ask any more questions, after leaving the house, he ordered someone to prepare a horse, he wanted to chase the great cause of the house, and he had to keep the old general recommended to him by Yang Feng no matter what. (To be continued.) )
