Chapter 14 A Jackal Emerges from the Yamen
About half an hour has passed, and there was a noisy sound outside the inn, Xu Gang looked at Dao Yuan, who was still beating people, is this little Taoist really a Taoist priest? How can he be more bloody than himself, and he doesn't have the otherworldly feeling of the Taoist priest in his imagination at all.
"Xiaodao Chief, it's almost, they seem to be here, you are doing a good job, please hide in the dark to take care of it." Xu Gang was worried about what kind of demon moth came out of the other party, so after thinking about it, it would be better to let Daoyuan hide it as a countermeasure.
"Okay!" Daoyuan stopped when he heard this, and said to Xu Gang: "Also, Xu Gongzi, you can call me Daoyuan directly in the future!" ”
Xu Gang nodded, and Dao Yuan jumped onto the roof, and disappeared in an instant.
Shopkeeper Li stretched his neck to look at the backyard gate, thinking that he was about to rescue his daughter, and his heart was also relieved, however, when he saw the person walking in front, a sense of foreboding came to his heart.
As soon as he entered the door, he raised his right hand to make a movement, and then more than a dozen red-clothed catchers with knives poured into both sides of the door, surrounding Xu Gang and Li's shopkeeper.
"I heard that someone has set up a private court here and detains people to commit murder, but is that you?" The red-clothed catcher pointed at Xu Gang and said righteously.
Xu Gang looked at the group of catchers who rushed in, and he was even angry in his heart, he couldn't imagine that they actually sued the wicked first, and remembered the scene when he and his father were driven out of the yamen by these arrests......
Since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, Xu Gang forcibly suppressed the hatred and resentment in his heart, and saluted the red-clothed head catcher with a fist: "This poor master, it is not me who committed the murder, but this group of people on the ground, they not only arrested our shopkeeper's daughter, but also came to the inn to blackmail and make trouble!" Then he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "As officials, you don't want to arrest them, but come to arrest us, dare to ask, is there still a royal law?" "The rape of the shopkeeper Li's daughter, after all, is a matter of women's honor, Xu Gang finally endured the words that came to his mouth and swallowed them into his stomach.
The red-clothed catcher listened to Xu Gang's words, his face changed slightly, in fact, he also wanted to be a good catcher and support justice, but before Huang Tong came, he gave an order to arrest Xu Gang and the others and lock them up, thinking that Huang Tong was judged to be ruthless, the red-clothed catcher had to sigh lightly, looked at Xu Gang, and said in a tough tone: "Just your words are not enough to believe, right and wrong, and you have your own judgment, but it is a fact that you injured them, it is best to follow us obediently, so as not to be offended." ”
"You ......" Xu Gang pointed to the red-clothed headhunter, and he was angry.
"Hmph, take it!" The red-clothed catcher didn't give Xu Gang a chance to speak, gave his subordinates an order, and then turned around and walked out.
Xu Gang looked at the shopkeeper Li next to him, who was as indignant as himself, and he could go out by himself, but what should he do with the shopkeeper Li? This must not be done! So he reluctantly changed the finger of his sword to a fist, gritted his teeth to suppress the anger in his heart, and let the catcher who approached him put a chain on his hand.
A group of headhunters escorted Xu Gang and Shopkeeper Li out of the inn, Dao Yuan hid in a tree not far away, watching this scene, I don't know what to do? I don't know how to fight with the government, so why don't I rob people directly!
Daoyuan, who was about to rush to the rescue, suddenly thought of something, jumped down from the tree, and didn't know if he was dazzled, and a shadow flashed by on the opposite tree. Dao Yuan didn't think about it, quickly ran to the west of the city, passed through the city gate and came to the outside of the city, he picked the sparsely populated mountain roads and paths, and used light kung fu to gallop to the west, Xu Gongzi, you must hold on until I come back.
The weather is getting dark, a small half a day of galloping, when Daoyuan's internal strength is about to be exhausted, a military camp appeared in front, the military flag fluttering in the wind in the camp is written on the two big characters "Ningyuan", the guard soldiers at the gate of the camp saw Daoyuan galloping, quickly entered the state of defensive alert, pulled the bow and opened the arrow, aimed at Daoyuan, one of the soldiers shouted at Daoyuan: "Who is coming, this is the important place of the military camp, leave quickly, otherwise we are welcome!" ”
"This sergeant, Xiaodao has an urgent matter to ask to see your military commander, this is a token." Daoyuan stood about a foot away from them and threw the jade plaque in his hand.
The sergeant took the jade plaque, which was indeed a token of the military master, and said to Daoyuan: "You wait here, I'll go and report it to you." ”
"It's hard work!" Daoyuan hugged his fists to express his gratitude.
"Captain!"
Accompanied by the shouts of the sergeants, a slightly rough voice came from the camp at the same time.
"It turned out to be a little brother of Daoyuan, I haven't seen you for a long time, have you found the object? Hahaha~~~" This person is dressed in a scarlet military uniform, tall and strong, with sword eyebrows and sword eyes, and is not angry and arrogant.
Daoyuan heard the man's ridicule, his face was slightly red, he couldn't imagine that because he had looked at other girls a few more times, he was actually laughed at until now, seeing him approaching, he quickly hugged his fists and smiled: "Master Wang, you are laughing again, I am dedicated to the Tao, and I have no intention of having children." Then he said a little anxiously: "By the way, I came to disturb me today, and I have something to ask for."
Wang Junzhu interrupted him and said, "Let's go in and talk about something!" ”
Daoyuan looked around, quickly shut up, nodded and followed the Wang Jun Master into the barracks.
In the camp, the king army lord retreated from the sergeant guarding the door, pointed to an officer behind him, and asked Daoyuan, "Do you still know each other?" ”
Dao Yuan smiled, clasped his fists and shouted, "Commander Meng, don't come to harm!" ”
"Haha, Brother Daoyuan still remembers me, brother, I'm so happy!" Commander Meng laughed a few times.
"Mr. Lingyin, is his old man okay?" Lord Wang Jun clenched his fists and asked Daoyuan.
"Uncle Taishi is all right, I just left for Kaiyuan Temple yesterday!" Daoyuan returned the salute with a fist.
Seeing that Dao Yuan's extremely tired expression was a little panicked, presumably the situation was urgent, he didn't talk to his parents anymore, and asked directly: "Little brother Dao Yuan, if you have anything, just say it directly, as long as I Wang Jin can do it, there is no other word." ”
Wang Jin was originally the commander of the Xuanyi Army in Xiazhou, and was designed in Jiangling Mansion in his early years, but fortunately Hongmengzi and Xiao Daoyuan came to the rescue, so he survived, Wang Jin was chivalrous and upright, and the injury had not healed at that time, so he reported the grievances to a little girl, which was the girl who Daoyuan had seen a few more times. After Wang Jin recovered from his injury, in order to repay Hongmengzi's kindness, he gave Hongmengzi a jade card, as long as Hongmengzi or his people found him with a jade card, he would do his best to help, and then he went to Kaiyuan Temple to visit Hongmengzi, so he also formed a deep friendship with Xiao Daoyuan, last year he went out of Yazhou, and specially informed Hongmengzi.
"Bang!"
After listening to Daoyuan's story, Wang Jin felt empathy and was extremely angry, only to see him slap his palm on the table, making a loud noise, shaking the objects on the table in all directions, he suddenly stood up and yelled: "It's so hateful!" A small sect actually dared to do such a hurtful thing, and the people in the government actually participated in it and aided the abuse. ”
He turned to Commander Meng behind him and said, "Commander Meng, how many people can you mobilize?" ”
"Lord, we only brought some personal soldiers here last year, and now there are less than five hundred soldiers available to us."
Wang Jin sighed when he heard this and said: "This is all Yu Hou Huang Xiwen constantly buying soldiers through money, is it possible that he wants to rebel?" After another pause, he said: "I didn't expect his family to have such strong financial resources!" ”
Commander Meng also sighed and said: "I'm afraid his power is not small, he should have been out last year, he can't go out!" ”
Master Li waved his hand and said, "Commander Meng, you go and order twenty or thirty trustworthy people to follow me into the city to save people." ”
When Commander Meng heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward and clenched his fists and persuaded: "Military master, I'm afraid this is not very good, right?" If it reaches Huang Xiwen, if he sues us for sending troops without the order of the Privy Council, it will be tantamount to rebellion, and we will not be able to wash the Yellow River! And besides our own soldiers, it is difficult for us to mobilize other people! ”
Since Taizu released the military power with a cup of wine, he established the Privy Council-Sanya system, and the Privy Council let the Wenchen take power, and the military was controlled by the military. The soldiers are subordinate to the three ya, and they are not allowed to be autocratic", and the "power to send troops" and "the weight of holding the army" are separated, so that neither the Privy Council nor the chief of the three yas can pose a threat to the imperial power. If you are charged with rebellion, you will be punished by the nine clans.
Commander Meng paused and said, "There is a way for subordinates. ”
"Oh, what's the solution?" Jun Master Li hurriedly asked.
Commander Meng beckoned to Li Dujian and Daoyuan, and explained to them in a low voice.
