Chapter 588: Corporal Lixian, win people's hearts

Human heads are very common, but if they are cut off and put in one place alone, it will be a little scary, not to mention women and children, that is, many men are panicked when they see it.

However, Tang Tong didn't feel this way at all at this time, he hung Lin Gui's head on the horse's back, and he actually had a smile on his face, as kind as looking at his own son.

At this moment, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and a group of about three or five sentry horses stopped at the outermost part of the path, and they were greeted by the sentry commander of the forbidden army's cavalry battalion.

He looked around, but when he saw blood all over the ground, he asked.

"It turned out that Mr. Tang Qian arrived first, what about Lin Guiren?"

Hearing this, Tang Tong laughed, turned around and said:

"Old Deng, you're too late. Originally, the general had already caught Na Lin Gui, but his resistance was very fierce, and he actually wanted to bribe the general with the gold and silver in the palace, and I was cut off in a fit of anger, can this brain case still repay the prince? ”

In fact, Wang Zheng has long stipulated this, and the reason why Tang Tong asked was to show off, and secondly, to cover up the panic in his heart after receiving bribes.

Chief Deng Shi obviously didn't notice the panic that flashed on Tang Tong's face, but just ordered someone to check if it was Lin Gui's head, and only after getting it was confirmed that he was relieved, and nodded at one of the staff members who followed him.

The staff member was very gentle, wearing the gray and black official uniform issued by the Qi Army Staff Mansion not long ago, and looked Lin Gui's bloody head up and down, but he was not afraid, he just turned around and arched his hand at Tang Tong and said:

"The subordinate is pretending to be the head of the military affairs section of the staff office, Tang Qianzong captured the traitor Lin Gui this time, and listed the second-class merit according to military regulations, and the first rank is left, go back to Guangning Gate and wait for the results."

Tang Tong didn't feel anything at first, he was just a staff member, so there was no need to make a fuss, but when he heard the name Mao Xiang, he was very surprised.

This person Tang Tong has heard more than once, he and Tongcheng Fang Yizhi, Yixing Chen Zhenhui, Shangqiu Hou Fangyu, and called the "Four Sons", it is said that the talent is very high.

However, now that the fourth prince has become the third son, the Hou Fangyu headed by Wang Zheng was personally cut down, and now the ashes are afraid that they are already cold.

However, Tang Tong still couldn't figure it out, when King Qi was in Jiangnan, he conducted a thorough inventory of the students of the Donglin Society, and it is said that the total number of people arrested and killed must be at least thousands.

After this incident, it is really strange that Mao Xiang will still serve in the Staff Office.

There are many things that Tang Tong doesn't know, Mao Xiang is indeed a member of the Donglin Princes, but that was once, Wang Zheng's occupation of Nanjing was not a barbarian entry, let alone a thief stealing the country.

On the contrary, Wang Zheng supported Queen Lilu and did not have other vassal kings who claimed to be the guardian or emperor, which was enough to prove the legitimacy of the Qi army.

In this way, even if he has a bad intention, but he can't find any reason, and the court of Nanjing Lu Jianguo is in full swing, defeating Li Chuang in the south and recovering Yanjing in the north.

The general trend of the world is like this, and fools know that the dynasty is about to change, and who will not be able to live with their future.

At first, Mao Xiang, Chen Zhenhui, Fang Yizhi and others were all heartbroken, bent on death, and never thought of fighting for the king, but later the staff office moved some tricks and feet to spread the news that several of them had joined the king of Shiqi.

Since then, there has been an endless stream of officials who have come to visit the door, and they have congratulated them, and the three of them are also sad, Chen Zhenhui's mother came to persuade him, but Fang Yizhi came to persuade his wife Pan.

Even if Chen Zhenhui and Fang Yizhi don't work at this time, the people of the world will think that they are doing things under the King of Qi, coupled with Wang Zheng's series of coercion and temptation, the two also understand that if they persist any longer, the net may not be broken.

Wang Zheng is not a role that seems to be with, he is in a hurry, he has to suffer his wife and children, and there is no need to insist, the two of them went out of the palace of King Qi before and after a month after they were arrested.

Mao Xiang turned a blind eye to the persuasion of Chen Zhenhui and Fang Yizhi, he had no old mother and no children, and seemed to be determined to fight against the king.

But it didn't take long for him to relent.

Dong Xiaowan is a singer who shocked Qin Huai, since the death of her mother, she has been merciful with Mao Xiang everywhere, and these things have long been recorded in the espionage department.

When the sub-bureaus under the Urban Management Bureau began to investigate Jiangnan, Dong Xiaowan and Mao Xiang were affected, Mao Xiang was ready to redeem Dong Xiaowan at that time, but the old bustard didn't say anything, and he was unwilling to give up Dong Xiaowan's cash cow, and he didn't let go of anyone who gave him any amount of silver.

Mao Xiang is still a literati after all, and he has so much silver on his body, although he is anxious, but the old bustard clenched and didn't let go, he didn't have any way, and he was in a hurry, so he was caught in the yard by the people of the urban management bureau and circled it in the yard.

At that time, Mao Xiang thought that he and Dong Xiaowan would never see each other again, and thought about it several times, but suddenly one day, it was Li Yan who personally brought Dong Xiaowan here.

Mao Xiang was pleasantly surprised, and hugged Dong Xiaowan tightly, and later asked about it, Dong Xiaowan said that it was the current King of Qi who personally ordered the bustard to let him go.

At that time, when Dong Xiaowan talked about it, he kept laughing, saying that the old bustard was extremely reluctant at first, but the commander of the Qi army city defense battalion in Suzhou was very angry when he heard it, and actually brought the troops in person.

He also said that this was the order of the King of Qi, and if he did not release the people, he would definitely raze the green building to the ground.

Looking at the team of soldiers of the city defense battalion in front of him, the old bustard still released Dong Xiaowan intact with each other, and he didn't even have the courage to say a word.

The more Mao Xiang listened, the more surprised he became, there was a way to be in a high position such as King Qi, just like an unnamed emperor, there were not many things to deal with every day, but even so, he would bother to give orders for himself and Dong Xiaowan.

He is just a down-and-out scholar, Dong Xiaowan is just a singer, the lowest person in the world, Wang Zheng is one step away from the position of the Son of Heaven, but he treats them so hard.

Even if Mao Xiang was hard-hearted, it all melted in that instant.

Coupled with Dong Xiaowan's unremitting persuasion and encouragement, Mao Xiang seemed to have a second spring in his life, and went to Li Yan with Dong Xiaowan in the early morning of one day, saying that he was willing to do things for King Qi.

Li Yan was very happy, saying that the King of Qi had already had an order, and the position of the Gongke had always been reserved for him, and Mao Xiang was very excited when he heard it, and said on the spot that he would die for the King of Qi.

For Mao Xiang, if he can help Wang Zheng complete his great cause, he will become the hero of the founding of the country, leave a name in history, and have a group of chubby boys with Dong Xiaowan, and the future is really bright.

Tang Tong, who had been in the north all these things, didn't know about it at all, he just saw that Mao Xiang, one of the four sons of the Restoration Society, would actually do things for Wang Zheng and couldn't figure it out.

You know, this King of Qi has wiped out the Restoration Society.

However, at the moment, his attention is obviously not on this matter, originally Tang Tong was still thinking that he could list the first-class merit this time, but he was dumbfounded when he heard Mao Xiang's words.

Looking at the sentry rider who came to take the head, Tang Tong asked:

"It's actually only a second-class skill, isn't it a little small?"

Hearing this, Mao Xiang glanced up at Tang Tong and said earnestly:

"General Tang, if ordinary people want to get this second-class merit, they have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy in person, and the killing is indispensable, now if you catch a Lin Gui, you will be given a second-class merit, and you should burn high incense."

Tang Tong was still a little hesitant, and asked hesitantly:

“... That, Section Chief Mao, this second-class function makes you leave Guangning Gate, I really don't want to be a guy who guards the door, don't say it, I'm afraid there will be no chance of meritorious service after this village. ”

"Hahaha."

Hearing this, Mao Xiang suddenly burst out laughing:

"I'm afraid General Tang still doesn't understand the second-class merit in the Qi army, so I'll tell you like this, just with this second-class merit, it's enough to be a battalion officer in other places."

"Is that really the case!?"

Tang Tong was overjoyed, he didn't expect the military exploits in the Qi army to be so useful, it was a world of difference from Da Shunzhong, and when he went to the post, he must seize the opportunity to make some more meritorious achievements!

It was the first time for Tang Tong to feel so motivated, and he couldn't even wait to know where he was going to take office, he clenched his fists with a smile on his face and said:

"I'll pass the section chief first!"

Mao Xiang waved his hand and said:

"Don't thank me, King Xie Qi."

Looking at Mao Xiang's somewhat leisurely back, Tang Tong suddenly realized, looked in the direction of the Forbidden City, a touch of respect suddenly rose on his face, clenched his fists, and muttered:

"Lao Tzu must show his strength this time and repay the great kindness of King Qi!"
