Chapter 600: Lips and Teeth
Qiu Yue, who was in his early forties, was a burly and upright man in Tibet, although he was in the dust at this time, he was still very much in line with the impression of a military general at first glance. Even if Xu Xun has a fire in his stomach, it can be seen that Qiu Yueli has been thoughtful and humble in words, but it is still not good to spread this nameless fire on the other party. After looking Qiu Yue up and down for a while, he suddenly raised his eyebrows thoughtfully.
"You are the Qiu Yue recommended by Governor Yang before?"
"It's the last general!"
Qiu Yue was stationed in the Yuquan camp outside the city, and at this time he was leading the troops back from patrolling outside the side wall, planning to go to the General Soldier's Mansion to see the General Soldier Jiang Hanyu to report the movements of the prisoners, but who would have heard that Pingbei Bo Xu Xun was in the General Soldier's Mansion in Ningxia Town at this time, and the General Soldier's Mansion went to Qingwang's Mansion to celebrate his birthday, and his surprise was not trivial.
He started from a small pawn, but during his service in the Ningxia General Military Mansion, because of his ability to do things steadily, he won the praise of the officers, especially those who had no relatives and no reason with him, and only had the friendship of the same surname. Later, Qiu Li died of illness, because there was no heir, and the hereditary military position of Ningxia avant-garde commander Tongzhi was inherited by no one. It was also Qiu Li who left a suicide note, and the deputy chief soldier of the general army at that time and several staff generals guerrilla activities on his behalf, and he actually inherited the post as his heir.
Although those old people are now dead and retired, his popularity in the Ningxia Town General Military Mansion is still very good, and even the chief soldier Jiang Han has deep trust in him. At this time, seeing that Xu Xun was not angry with him, and he still remembered that he was recommended by Yang Yiqing, he knew that there was still hope for redemption in today's matter, so he cautiously said: "Pingbei Bo came by order of Qin, and the original deputy chief soldier and the last general should go out of the city to greet him, and I don't want to ...... today is the thirty-third birthday of King Qing."
"King Qing is a prince, although it is not a whole birthday, it is the proper duty of the officers to congratulate Yihe." Xu Xun interrupted Qiu Yue's words, and then said word by word, "But first, I asked people to find the Qingwang Mansion on the grounds of urgent military information, but no one reported it internally; Second, the envoy I sent was almost detained by the king of Anhua, but no one took it seriously; Third, I have been waiting for half an hour in the General Military Mansion of Ningxia Town, and the Qingwang Mansion is only three streets away from here, but so far, only General Qiu has come back alone. Although it is not a soldier in the city now, if the top and bottom have always done this, it is really unreassuring! β
As soon as these words came out, Qiu Yue suddenly felt bitter in his heart, and secretly scolded how the bunch of bosses and colleagues trained their subordinates, at this time, why didn't anyone report the news inside, if the master knew that they were watching singing and dancing in Qingwang's Mansion, then it would be a big trouble to look back. He was thinking about how to explain, when a person outside suddenly rushed in angrily, and without looking at him, he stiffly put down a sentence.
"In the eunuch's mansion, Li Zeng and Deng Guang are not there, and no one can answer after I ask a few words, it is simply unreasonable!"
Qiu Yue heard that it seemed to be a eunuch's voice, squinted at it, and guessed that it should be Zhang Yong, the royal eunuch who came out with Xu Xun this time. After hesitating, seeing Zhang Yong suddenly looking at him thoughtfully, he hurriedly bowed down and said, "The last general, Ningxia guerrilla general Qiu Yue, see Gonggong Zhang." Gonggong Li and Gonggong Deng should also go to Qingwangfu together. Qingwangfu is singing and dancing, and the people below may not dare to disturb the report inside, so why don't you go to the end in person? β
Zhang Yong said with a smile: "You don't need to go, the eunuch Miao Gonggong has already taken General Chen to go in person, if those people can stop Miao Gonggong and General Chen outside, it will be a lot of fun!" β
Miao Kui, the eunuch of the Imperial Horse Supervisor's palm seal, actually went to the Qingwang Mansion in person? Oops, I just heard that Xu Xun sent his cronies to King Qing's mansion, but he was almost detained by King Anhua, and he didn't care about it, so it can be seen that the rumors before may be .........true, seeing that Qiu Yue's face was very ugly for a while, Xu Xun made a calm gesture at Zhang Yong, and then asked Qiu Yue: "Looking at General Qiu's appearance, it seems that there is something hidden?" β
Qiu Yue thought that he was also recommended by Yang Yiqing, Xu Xun had a fight with Liu Yu, the secretary of the military department, in the capital, so that he was promoted to the guerrilla general of Ningxia, and hesitated for a long time, then he said in a low voice: "King Anhua has always been unrestrained in his words and deeds, but he is an uncle, generous and generous in the past, and has always been friendly with King Qing's Yiwei Division. If Gonggong Miao and General Chen forcibly break in, it will damage the face of the kings of Qingfu after all......"
These words were said carefully, but Xu Xun and Zhang Yong had already heard the meaning. Xu Xun was already quite wary of Zhu Ningxiao, the king of Anhua, because of the anonymous letter that Yang Yiqing had shown him before, while Zhang Yong was purely annoyed that such a county king with no real power was so rude to the upright Qincha. After a while, Xu Xun opened his mouth and said: "In this case, General Lao Qiu will go to Qingwang's Mansion." I didn't follow the order, so I didn't dare to go to King Qing easily, but since it coincided with King Qing's birthday......" He paused, and then instructed Ah Bao on the side: "Go to your bag and find out the jade belt." β
Seeing that Ah Bao had heard the words, he said to Qiu Yue unhurriedly: "I asked General Qiu to give the jade belt to King Qing as a birthday gift!" β
In the main hall of Qingwangfu and the palace on both sides, it is full of friends at this time. The kings of Qingfu are clans, and they are rich and poor on weekdays, and they are different from the noble and the low, but today King Qing specially invited him, and more than half of them came. Among them, Zhu Ningyao, the king of Anhua, is junior but tall, and he sits very far forward. At this moment, watching the dancing girl in the tulle dance, he couldn't help but pour a glass of wine into his mouth with ease, but suddenly noticed that someone was leaning up behind him.
"What's going on?"
"Your Highness, there are several groups of people from the General Military Mansion, and the Tao is that Qin Chaping Beibo has arrived, and they have all been perfunctory by the Honor and Guard Division. But right now, there are people outside who claim to be Gonggong Miao of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, and Chen Xiong, the general of the Left Official Hall of the Twelfth Regiment Battalion, and there has been a commotion over there, and I am afraid that they will not be able to bear it......"
Zhu Ningxiao raised his head and teased Cao Mi, but he was used to this one-acre and three-point land in Ningxia, and it can be seen that as soon as the popularity rushed away, he sensed that something was wrong. The kings of Qingfu are here, and he is generous, but he is just a joke, and this Ningxia officer will not be so uninteresting. Thinking that it might be someone from Beijing, or someone from Yang Yiqing's Governor's Mansion, he deliberately instructed the people of the Honor and Guard Division not to let outsiders in to ruin the fun. At this time, when he learned that there were really several groups of people from the General Military Mansion, and it was Pingbei Bo Xu Xun who came, the Honor Guard Division dared to stop it like this, and he couldn't help but sneer.
If it weren't for the fact that Wang Yue and Wang Zhi fell one after another, and many young officers who had worked hard to drill the camp before, they would have been sidelined, how could there be many people who had entered the palace honor and guard division? Although the rank is not high, it is better to be idle and have no pressure, and the bigwigs in the court are not good at coercing the Qingwang family who have always been peaceful, and it is impossible to liquidate them endlessly, so this matter has been brought over, but the hatred has been saved after all. Just now, he specially asked King Qing to give wine to everyone in the honor guard outside, and there are still a lot of them, thinking that with the intention of drinking, these people who have been guarding themselves for many years and are now fifty miles away will dare to be so bold.
Seeing the panic and horror on the little guy's face, he sneered as soon as he groaned slightly: "Don't pay attention to this matter, let them make trouble!" β
Sure enough, only a short time later, there was a sudden uproar outside. The singing and dancing in the carrier hall was in full swing, and the maid with a beautiful face was diligently persuading the wine beside him, most people didn't hear it, only the chief soldier Jiang Han had been slightly restrained and heard the movement outside. He summoned a maid and told him to go outside, and the next moment, the door of the closed carrier hall was pushed open, and an official of the palace stumbled into the room, interrupting the song and dance at the most wonderful time. ..., Qingwang Zhu Taixun was stunned for a moment, and then reprimanded angrily: "What's the matter! β
"Your Highness is a thousand years old, and the slave is dead!" The inner official hurriedly crawled to the ground, and then stammered, "Outside...... Outside the Imperial Horse Supervisor...... Imperial Horse Supervisor Palm Seal Eunuch Miao ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Miao Kui went straight in. Seeing that the singing and dancing girl in the hall hurriedly retreated to the side, there were many military attachΓ©s in military uniforms on the left and right, many of them had drunken eyes, and even many of them had a hand into the arms of the maid on the side, and he immediately frowned. When he heard Chen Xiong's reminder behind him, he took a deep breath and saluted King Zhu Taijun with a smile.
"Miao Kui, the eunuch of our family's imperial horse supervisor, has seen King Qing Chitose."
Although he was still angry just now, as soon as he heard that it was Miao Kui, the eunuch of the imperial horse supervisor in the capital, his face suddenly turned pale, and his first reaction was that he had happened-As for what happened, even he himself couldn't count how many things in this Qingfu on the ground in Ningxia were worthy of a crime - it was naturally okay not to investigate on weekdays, but as long as it was investigated, Ying Jing'er was a countless handle. So, he didn't care about his prince's dignity, and hurriedly stood up and saluted back.
"I don't know that Gonggong Miao has arrived, this clan has not been far away, I am really lazy, I don't know what Gonggong Miao is here to ......"
Seeing the panic on the face of King Qing, Miao Kui's depression that had been grinding with the Honor Guard Division for a long time outside finally dissipated a little. He glanced around at the surrounding military attaches again, and then said lightly: "Our family was ordered to patrol the northwest borders of Pingbeibo, all the way through the three towns of Yansui, Datong, Xuanfu, but I didn't expect that Ningxia Town, the person who reported the news was stopped in the palace, not to mention, and when he arrived in the general army's mansion, he asked people to report again, but there was no news again and again. There is really no way to do this, our family can only ask Uncle Pingbei to take General Chen to run this trip in person! β
These words are not loud, but they carry a lot of weight. Although Jiang Han, the chief soldier, secretly regretted that he should not come today, many other officers also had extremely ugly faces. Just when Miao Kui sneered and turned around to leave, another person outside hurriedly entered the carrying hall, but it was Qiu Yue, a guerrilla general in Ningxia who most people recognized.
As soon as Qiu Yue came in, he felt that there was a stiff and stagnant atmosphere in this huge hall, and he also saw Miao Kui and Chen Xiong mentioned to him at the Yimen before. As soon as he thought about it, as if he didn't recognize Miao Kui and Chen Xiong, he saluted King Qing first. And the chief soldier Jiang Han was stunned when he saw Qiu Yue, and immediately asked: "Qiu Yue, didn't you take the Yuquan battalion to inspect the Yellow River?" β
"Lord Rong!" Qiu Yue arched his hand to Jiang Han, and then said loudly, "The last general just came back from outside, and when he arrived at the General Military Mansion, he learned that Pingbei Bo had arrived. Knowing that today's celebration of the king's birthday, all the generals came to the Qingwang Mansion for a banquet, and the Pingbei Bert ordered the last general to send a jade belt as a birthday gift, and asked the generals to return to the General Military Mansion to discuss matters! β
