The people of Erzhou City are the most entangled, although the place used to belong to Shaanxi Yinyuan Ding Mu Bike is far away from the Song and Xia front, and the residents' understanding of the military war is only in the impression. But since the "Shaanhua Road" has been drawn out and the commander has been set up in Huazhou City, where officers and soldiers can be seen galloping every day. On this day, the vendors in the market had just put their goods on the shelves, and no one had patronized them. Then I heard a shouting voice. More than ten horsemen rushed into the east gate, shouting all the way to give way, and ran directly to the gate of the Shuai Mansion before stopping the reins.

The guards of the Shuai Mansion recognized him as the general, named Zhang Zhonghu, the chief of soldiers and horses in Hezhong Mansion, and his brother Zhang Zhongyan was his deputy. The two brothers are both old subordinates who have followed the commander for many years. It's just that not long after dawn, is there anything urgent that Manager Zhang can't do? Otherwise, how could they run away foaming at the mouth and sweating profusely?

Zhang Zhongyan turned over and got off the horse, pulled his legs and ran inside. The soldier stopped and wanted him to untie the knife, but without saying a word, he pushed it, turned his back to the sky, and swept into the Shuaifu like a gust of wind. When Shaanxi Hua Shuai Si Cao Chuang, there were many affairs, and Shuai Chen Qu Duan was sitting in the second hall. Seeing Zhang Zhonghu breaking in with a weapon, his face changed, and he shouted: "You don't know the rules in our army? ”

Zhang Zhonghu swallowed his saliva vigorously, and hurriedly stepped forward as if he wanted to plead, but before he could speak, he heard the handsome shout: "Get out!" Unarm and come in again! ”

"But Da Shuai" just got up, and Qu Duan suddenly slapped his palm on the case. Shocked, Manager Zhang didn't dare to say a word more, and quickly turned around and went out to the door to untie the saber before entering.

Unlike ordinary military ministers, who are careless and can't even read a few words, this Qu Dashuai is quite an exception. The pen and inkstone used are quite exquisite, after Zhang Zhongxiang re-entered, he hung the wolf pen in his hand on the pen stand, looked up and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Originally, I wanted to say something in my stomach, but it turned out to be so whole, and Mr. Zhang didn't know where to start. After gasping for a while, he said, "Dashuai." Woe to you! ”

Qu Duan's expression remained unchanged, and he got up and said, "The sky can't fall, say slowly." ”

"At noon yesterday, Xu Jiu led thousands of troops from Yuxiang to Hubao Town, broke into the barracks, and disarmed all the soldiers of Zhang Zhongyan's department! When the inferior department arrived, Xu Jiu had already left. not only captured Zhang Zhongyan, but also took away the thousands of Pingyang rebels! Zhang Zhonghu said that, but he didn't feel that the minister had any reaction.

Qu Duan looked at him for a long time, and after confirming that he was not joking, he still asked, "Do you say it again?" ”

"Handsome! Even if you have the audacity to do it, you will never dare to make a fool of yourself with such a big thing! Moreover. Zhang Zhongji is the brother of a lowly mother! Zhang Zhonghu said urgently.

Qu Duan frowned tightly and leaned against the copy. Not a word. Zhang Zhonghu could only hear his teeth clenched, and after a while, he suddenly roared: "Vertical son dare to do this!" ”

This matter was indeed beyond his expectations, first he didn't expect Xu Wei to attach so much importance to the mere rebels. Secondly, I didn't expect Xu Jiu to dare to take on the big responsibility for this matter and lead troops into the river! What is this nature, this is fire and! It's infighting!

Qu Duan was obviously extremely angry, and he paced aimlessly in the hall, while asking in a hurry, "Are there any dead people?" How many died? Who else was arrested besides Zhang Zhongyan? What did Xu Jiu say? ”

"Back to the big handsome. There were no casualties, Xu Jiu was obviously premeditated. He asked the sergeant and said that as soon as the Hujie army rushed in, they would seize the barracks. first took control of the commander, and then forced Zhang Zhongyan's troops to lay down their arms. The most hateful thing is. The gang took all the captured equipment with them. Zhang Zhonghu replied.

Qu Duan was cold. Duo: "He can't escape if he doesn't die!" What is his identity, he is just a soldier! What authority does he have to lure troops into the river? What power does it have? Not to mention the capture of the commander-in-chief! And he is also the deputy head of the soldiers and horses of the first house! He's dead! Gather people, go to Dingrong to get him, Ben Shuai wants to see if he has the courage to detain me together! ”

These words reminded Zhang Zhongyan, and after thinking about it for a while, he stepped forward and whispered: "I still asked." Xu Wei marched under the banner of recruiting envoys from Hedong. The reason for his disarming and arresting people was that the Hezhong Army attacked the Pingyang Righteous Army and undermined the great cause of resisting Jin."

Qu Duan was angry, and it was inevitable that he didn't think about it very well. At this time, when he heard the words "Hedong Recruitment", he looked sideways slightly. Although the imperial court set up an envoy in Shaanxi to recruit envoys from Hedong, it did not actually have an independent organization, and it was Xu Wei who was specifically responsible. Therefore, the other marshals in Shaanxi only heard that there was such a thing, and no one knew what the specific authority of the envoy was.

Thinking of this, Qu Duan groaned slightly, and then said, "In this way, you go to Dingrong to find Xu Wei first." I immediately reported the matter to the Shaanxi Xuanfu Embassy. I'm here to see what happens to Li Boji. Zhang Zhongxiang took the order and left

As a result, when he ran to Dingfei City to ask for a person with the posture of Xingshi asking for guilt, he ended up being closed. The reply I got was that the magistrate was not in the city, and he would wait for the magistrate to come back. After he revealed his identity, the Hujie general named Yang Yan almost didn't arrest him together. It is said that it is an attack on the Pingyang rebels, presumably you also have a part?

Zhang Zhonghu came violently, seeing such a situation. Restrained a little, and said that as a brother, it's always okay for me to meet Zhang Zhongyan, right? As a result, he was still refused, and the other party said that Zhang Zhongyan conspired to sabotage the anti-gold plan, and the crime was extremely heinous, and he wanted to be tied up and sent to Shaanxi Xuanfu Yamen to ask for guilt. After grinding there for a day, in the end, even Yang Yan didn't see him.

Zhang Zhonghu was anxious and angry, and after returning to Huazhou, he relayed the matter to Shuai Si as it was. Qu Duan was furious when he heard the news, Xu Jiu did it on purpose. Otherwise, he was still in Huazhou in the morning, but at noon he led his troops into Hezhong Mansion. If it is not a pre-assembled force. How can it be so fast?

Just as he was about to lead his men and horses to convict Rong and question him the next morning, the officials sent by Li Gang rushed to Huazhou in the starry night. The lineup is strong and the level is very high, including a "transfer judge" from the Cao Division, a "prosecutor judge" from the Constitutional Division, and a "Xuanfu judge" who came with Li Gang on behalf of Xuanfu

Qu Duan was very surprised, I reported it yesterday. You arrived early this morning? In fact, as soon as Xu Wei returned to Dingrong City yesterday, he reported the matter to Jingzhao.

In the past, between the military ministers of all walks of life in Shaanxi. Or there is friction, and the Xuanfu Yamen sends people down, generally with a muddy attitude, and the power is a peacemaker. But this time it was obviously different, Cao Si Xiansi sent people, and Li Gang's representative turned out to be the "Xuanfu Judge" whose status was second only to him, this was by no means here to persuade him, this was really to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Qu Duan is not afraid, anyway, it is good, that is, to break the sky, Xu Wei led the troops to disarm the Hezhong Army without authorization, and detained the chief, this matter is reported to Tokyo, and the official family can't protect him.

After the officials of the three divisions were stationed in the marshal's mansion, they sent people to inform all parties to assemble in the Huazhou marshal division and wait for questioning. Qu Duan and Zhang Zhonghu are there, in fact, they are just waiting for Xu Wei. This guy was also active, and he sent him a message in the morning, and he arrived before noon. And the lineup is equally strong, in addition to himself, he also brought Zhang Zhongdu, the leader of the Pingyang Righteous Army.

This interrogation was held in the second hall of the Huazhou Marshal's Mansion to show the seriousness of the matter, and the guards inside and outside were guarded, and no one was allowed to approach. Xu Wei left a group of people outside, and instructed Zhang Zhongyan to take care of him, and only after he asked someone to rob him before entering. The commanders of Jingzhao were probably afraid that these military ministers would be angry, so they would use their swords and guns. It is strictly forbidden to carry weapons and wear uniforms.

Xu Wei is now a Zhengwupin official, when he was dressed in a vermilion official uniform, wearing a black gauze waist and a gold belt, Ang stepped into the side hall again. Sing a big fat promise, make a quartet, and say: "Xu Wei, who knows the lowly position, has seen all the commanders." ”

The three divisions all nodded, and Dudu ignored it. The "Xuanfu Judge" was about fifty-six years old, and he was gray, but he was very energetic. Pointing to the fixed seat, he said, "Xu Zhijun doesn't have to be polite, sit down." ”

Xu Wei gave another salute before taking a seat. The officials of the Xuanfu Envoy Division, the Cao Division, and the Constitutional Division sat on the main seat respectively, and he and Qu Duan both sat down. You don't look at me, and I don't look at you.

The atmosphere was naturally embarrassing and dull, and the Xuanfu judge coughed dryly twice to break the deadlock: "Regarding the matter of being born in the military camp of Hubao Town, Hezhong Mansion a few days ago, although both of you have reported it, it is inevitable that there will be no details in the official document. Today, the three divisions sent personnel here to find out, and you can both of you to state it again. ”

Qu sat upright, looked at his nose and nose, and said loudly: "There is nothing to say! Xu Wei led troops into the border of the river without authorization, disarmed and arrested people, who gave him the power? What qualifications does he have to do so? The nature of this matter is serious, and I believe I don't need to say more. Several adults understood in their hearts. ”

The three divisions sent people to each other, and Ran Dashuai seized the opportunity to buckle the hat to Xu Wei first. In this way, we have to see what Zijin Tiger says.

"Xu Wei, Qu Shuai is your direct boss. How do you explain his accusations? The prosecutor from the Constitutional Division asked.

Xu Wei smiled before speaking, and sent over with the same big hat: "The garrison of Hezhong Mansion attacked the rebel army retreating from Pingyang Mansion, killing and wounding hundreds of people. Thousands of captives! What is the nature of this? This is a conspiracy to sabotage the anti-gold plan! His heart can be punished! The current situation in Hedong is how much grain the imperial court spends. How many sergeants' lives were sacrificed in exchange for it! If someone turns a blind eye and deliberately destroys! As the deputy envoy of Hedong, he can't care! ”
