Zheng Shouzhong was so frightened that his heart trembled. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Now like this, it must be because the court doesn't trust the two of them, and if they annoy Zhang Shixun again, then maybe they will really put their lives here. The dismissal of the military and the deployment of the deputy capital of Gaoyang Guanlu sounded like a demotion to a foreign office, but no one could say what punishment would be given after leaving the capital. The treatment of such a serious offender who was escorted by the inner servants and the guards of the Imperial City Division was able to reach the place of demotion safely, and he really asked for the blessing of the gods and Buddhas.

grabbed Sun Lian, who was still in trouble, and comforted him a few words, Zheng Shouzhong carefully asked Zhang Shixun: "Enxiang, before you go out of the city, can you let the last general go home and explain." The distance to Hebei is not close, and you always have to bring some clothes for a change of clothes. ”

"No need, the imperial court will naturally prepare it for you. After going out from here, you are not allowed to go home, you are not allowed to go back to the barracks, you are not allowed to go out of the city. The envoy and the people of the Imperial City Division are already waiting at the door, you can honestly follow them!" ”

The more Zheng Shouzhong listened, the more uneasy he felt, and asked Zhang Shixun: "Enxiang, Nian Mo will always be respectful on weekdays, can you make it clear whether you have committed a capital crime this time?" Will you be able to return to the capital alive? ”

Zhang Shixun said with a straight face: "There is no need to say much about the major events of the military aircraft, as soldiers, you just need to do what you are ordered." If nothing else, let's go out of town. Today, you must go to Yucheng County to rest and sleep, there must be no mistakes! ”

Hearing this, Zheng Shouzhong was so frightened that his legs trembled. Yucheng County belongs to Huazhou, is the enclave of Jingxi Road, more than 100 miles away from Kaifeng City. This is to ask them to get out of the range of Kaifeng Mansion in one go and rush overnight. In addition to Kaifeng City, the forbidden army under the palace division is stationed in all counties in the prefecture, which is clearly to prevent their subordinate soldiers and horses from saving people and causing chaos.

The conscience of heaven and earth, where does Zheng Shouzhong have such a high prestige in the forbidden army in front of the palace, let alone being escorted out of the city, even if he is chopped into pulp in the Privy Council, there will be no subordinates to speak up for him. But what is scary is this attitude, which is clearly to treat the two of them as rebel officials to prevent it, and it is not good to say whether they will be treated as rebel officials on the road.

Zheng Shouzhong was born in the Zhenzong Domain, and after Zhenzong ascended the throne, he was promoted, and he became the top palace commander of the military position all the way, not only did he not have any military merits, but even other merits could not be counted. Usually majestic, at this time it will be revealed. With the respect of the palace marshal, he has a "favor" to the privy envoy, and it is disgraceful to say it.

Gaohua, who succeeded to the throne, was actually basically the same as Zheng Shouzhong's experience, when he was young, he was selected as the cage official of the Xiangwang Mansion, which was to lead the horse for Emperor Zhenzong, who had not yet been established as the crown prince. However, Gaohua has no military merits, and he still has some achievements in the local area, but he is not good in the military, and it is reasonable to say that he is civilian, which is why Zhao Zhen feels that he is stronger than Zheng Shouzhong. And the new Marquis of Yu, Li Zhaoliang, was born in Jiangmen, and his father was the famous general Li Jilong. Li Zhaoliang can't fight a war, and he has to learn how to govern the army at home, which is reasonable.

Seeing that the two of them had nothing to say, Zhang Shixun instructed his subordinate soldiers to go out and take all the scepters brought by Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian, and immediately get up and leave the city with the inner servants who were waiting outside. All the relevant procedures have been completed for this meeting, and the handover in the yamen depends on the two generals in charge of the army.

Out of the capital, Sun Lian was still indignant and said to Zheng Shouzhong: "Du Shuai, the two of us are in charge of the front division of the palace, and the subordinates have 200,000 soldiers and horses. Today, I was called and drunk by a hair awl, and now I am not even allowed to go back to my home, which is really a great shame! The general of the army can go to the temple to perform affairs, how about the two of us distinguish in front of the saints? ”

Zheng Shouzhong smiled bitterly: "Brother, when the announcement is made, the two of us will not be in charge of the army, and what are we talking about going to the palace!" Now there is not a single entourage around, and several personal officials of the Imperial City Division regard us as thieves with the army. Don't make any more trouble, otherwise you will lose your life in vain, who will say a word to us? Peace of mind first to the depreciation, what grievances there are, the last chapter distinguishes. ”

While talking, the two went to the courtyard in front of them, only to find that Gao Hua and Li Zhaoliang were already standing under the hall. Like two puppets, they didn't squint, didn't say a word, and turned a blind eye to Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian who came out.

Zheng Shouzhong and Gao Hua knew each other when they were young, and when they saw this, they couldn't help but feel sad, and sighed: "Captain Gao, we are poor friends, no better than others." I'm confused about today's events, why was I removed from the army, can you tell me? If anything happens here, be a fool! ”

Gao Hua glanced at Zheng Shouzhong, shook his head silently, and still didn't say a word.

Zheng Shouzhong thought about it, but there was only the confrontation between the two armies in the city today, and he couldn't help but ask Gao Hua: "Brother, you told me the truth, but for the two armies in the city to make trouble today?" But why are we the only ones who are punished, and we don't see the people of Ma Junsi? ”

Sun Lian said hatefully: "Then it's to blame Du Shuai for not having a good sister, it's not as good as Li Majun!" ”

Lan Yuanzhen, the chamberlain who was in charge of escorting the two, was coming in from outside, and when he heard Sun Lian's words, his face immediately changed, and he shouted: "Two prisoners, carrying a deserving crime on their backs!" I spared your lives, and I didn't think about the grace of the court, but I dared to slander in my heart! So bold! Especially you, as a criminal official, dare to talk about the king, don't you know how to write dead words?! ”

As he spoke, he looked at Sun Lian angrily. signaled the soldiers who followed him to step forward like wolves and tigers, pressed Sun Lian to the ground, and began to pick up his official uniform.

Where did Sun Lian suffer this kind of humiliation, he struggled desperately there, and was punched and kicked by a few soldiers who had no head and no brain.

Zheng Shouzhong looked at the two tremors on the side, silent, and didn't dare to say a word again. These people forced Cao to death on the way when they were escorting him. The status of the general of the army is high, but he has not touched the toes of Cao Yun back then, offended them, and as long as you don't eat or drink along the way, it is enough to kill you.

Gao Hua and Li Zhaoliang, who took over, were also chilled, and the joy of promotion went to more than half. Receiving this kind of treatment, of course, Zheng Shouzhong and Sun Lian can only be blamed for the death, and the general who is in charge of the army normally goes to his post, and the etiquette is thorough, it is impossible to be like this. But today, these two people committed a crime and ended up like this, who knows if it will fall on him one day.

Seeing Lan Yuanzhen looking at him, Zheng Shouzhong hurriedly and obediently removed the official uniform on his body to avoid the same insult as Sun Lian.

Lan Yuanzhen snorted coldly and strode towards the capital hall, letting the ceremonial officials who were guarding there pass through.

The ceremonial officer saluted Gao Hua and Li Zhaoliang: "Captain, wait a moment, the prime minister ordered, the cabinet chief should go in and meet him immediately when he comes." ”

Gao Hua and Li Zhaoliang hurriedly replied: "Since the cardinal minister ordered, there must be something urgent, and the section level just needs to be busy." ”

As soon as the deliberations of the Chongzheng Palace ended, Li Yonghe and Gao Daquan were summoned into the palace, and Zhao Zhen personally inquired about what happened during the day.

After listening to the battle between Gao Daquan and Xu Huaide, Zhao Zhen praised: "Brave, proportional and just right, Gao Daquan, you have done this very properly." At this time, the army's heart is turbulent, it is better to be quiet than to move, and I have my own reward afterwards! ”

Gao Daquan thanked him and said: "The minister was originally just a guest in the prime minister's house, and he had to be taught by the minister, and by chance, he made some small contributions." Your Majesty's grace, promoted with all his might, to become a general in the army. It is fortunate to have today, and the minister only hates that he has no chance to serve the court, so how dare he hope for a reward? ”

Zhao Zhen nodded, and suddenly asked: "Gao Daquan, are the soldiers brought out by Xu Ping in Yongzhou really like you?" ”

Gao Daquan thought for a while before he said: "This kind of big truth, the minister can't talk about it." However, it feels like these things that have happened in the forbidden army recently are absolutely impossible to happen in the Yongzhou army. When it comes to military law, the Yongzhou army is much more lenient than the forbidden army, but whether it is a general soldier, he always keeps it in his heart, and he does not dare to treat military law like child's play. ”
