The young man who suddenly left in anger was naturally Shen Yun.

He never expected that the Huainan garrison would actually order the slaughter of the city. This is the old state of the Han Dynasty, and it is not a war against foreign enemies and a slaughter of the city? Is this what the Han army should do to the people of the Han Dynasty?

Shen Yun only felt a burst of heat in his chest, he wanted to find out, which bastard ordered the slaughter of the city? If he was asked to find out, Shen Yun would definitely sue the court as the Marquis of Bohai, and he would have to put this person to death.

But when he ran to the street, as soon as the wind blew, Shen Yun slowed down again. What if this order to slaughter the city was issued by the Marquis of Huainan?

Impossible, the Marquis of Huainan is not an officer of the Huainan garrison, and no one listens to him even if he gives the order. That Hu Gong token can only mobilize a company of troops, but it is impossible for the army to obey such a ridiculous order. It may still be possible for the generals in the army to give orders. Well, it must be so!

Shen Yun gritted his teeth and quickly ran towards the Huainan Hou Mansion.

Just when he was still about a hundred meters away from the Huainan Hou Mansion, a person suddenly rushed out from the side of the road and blocked in front of Shen Yun.

"Who?" Shen Yun Huoran stood still, but saw that the person in front of him was wearing a long water blue dress, with a light-colored cloth belt around his waist, and his head and face were wrapped in a sweat towel, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but it could be seen from the knots tied on the cloth belt that he was a woman with a good figure.

The woman lifted the corner of the sweat towel, revealing a pair of crystal eyes, just these eyes, Shen Yun recognized this person.

"Buchan? How did you? Shen Yun said in amazement.

Bu Chan looked at Shen Yun and said coldly: "Bohai Hou still remembers the little girl, it's really rare. It's just that I don't know if Master Hou still remembers the tens of thousands of lonely souls in Fengtai County! ”

Shen Yun's face froze, and he said in a deep voice: "Buchan, I heard that the Huainan garrison ordered the slaughter of the city?" Is this true? ”

Bu Chan glanced at Shen Yun in surprise and said, "You don't know? ”

"Of course I don't know! I just heard, damn, who ordered the slaughter of the city? Do this in Dahan Laozhou. Aren't you afraid of arousing the wrath of heaven and man? Shen Yun was extremely angry, and his voice became louder and louder. It caused passers-by to start looking here.

Buchan swept around and said in a low voice: "It's inconvenient to talk here, follow me." After speaking, he walked in the other direction of the Huainan Hou Mansion. Shen Yun followed.

After going around two streets, in the back alley of an oil and rice shop, Buchan stopped. Shen Yun looked around a little and found that this place was really hidden, even if he wanted to find a convenient corner in the middle of nowhere, he would not come. However, this alley is not deep, and it is not easy to do murder here, and a loud shout can attract the attention of passers-by.

Not carelessly. Every time this Buchan appeared, it was nothing good for Shen Yun. didn't say it the first time, and almost died unjustly in prison; Although he was not hurt the second time, he was also scared in Fengtai County. And this time, Bu Chan's words faintly suspected that Shen Yun was the one who caused Fengtai County to slaughter the city. According to this woman's temper, killing people to vent anger is not an impossible thing to do.

Bu Chan looked at Shen Yun's cautious eyes. Snorted coldly. He smiled and said, "The dignified Marquis of Bohai, are you still afraid that my female stream will be unfavorable to you?" ”

Shen Yun didn't feel guilty at all about his carefulness, and after making sure that there would be no accidents, he also smiled and said: "Be careful to sail a 10,000-year-old ship, what's more, your female stream is no less dangerous than a big man...... Go ahead. What do you really know? Who ordered the slaughter? ”

Bu Chan frowned and said in a deep voice: "Fengtai County was slaughtered, and more than 10,000 people were killed......

"Ten thousand? Not forty thousand? Shen Yunqi said.

Bu Chan frowned: "Who told you to kill 40,000?" There's a massacre order, but do you really think those C-Class Legion wastes can get their hands on it? Hum. The slaughter of the city is not something that can be done by the generals saying a word, the soldiers can cut it with a knife, there is no organization and no discipline, even if you give twice as many soldiers, you may not be able to slaughter the city of 40,000 people! ”

This is really Shen Yun's loneliness. In the past, when I read the history books, I slaughtered the city and killed prisoners at every turn, and the number of people was still in tens of thousands, so I really thought it was so easy to slaughter the city! Of course, this also has to do with the soldier's ability to execute.

"Ten thousand, a lot of them have died...... Shen Yun also frowned, "Who gave the order?" ”

"I thought it was you." Bu Chan glanced at him, "Because I heard that someone used the Hu Gong token to transfer a company of soldiers who were supposed to enter from the south gate to the west gate, and then the Fengtai County Ya was in chaos, and those cultists began to attack the Huainan garrison." Hmph, those soldiers of the C-class Legion are really rubbish, and they were almost beaten out of the city by those cultists...... Guo Chuan, who led the troops, was also a reckless man, and when he saw this, he began to offer a reward indiscriminately, saying that it was a traitor's first gold coin, so the whole situation was completely chaotic......"

"Didn't anyone stop it?" Shen Yun said angrily.

Bu Chan glanced at him: "It's all red-eyed, who can stop it?" Later, if it weren't for the intervention of our secret guards, I don't know how many people would have been killed! I'm very curious, how did Hu Gong's token appear in Fengtai County? The county government took the lead in attacking, Huang Zhenyuan died in the chaos, do you really know anything about this? ”

Shen Yun looked at Bu Chan with a firm gaze: "I lent the Hu Gong token to Huainan Hou, I don't deny this, but I really don't know that so many people will die." If I had known the consequences of this, I would never have done it. ”

Seeing his firm gaze, Bu Chan also believed a little, but said: "Okay, I believe you for the time being, and I will write the above report truthfully." However, if you lend Hu Gong token to others without authorization, this matter will definitely displease Your Majesty, so you can do it yourself. ”

Shen Yun hesitated for a moment and said, "This, can you not report the matter of me borrowing Hu Gong's token to Huainan Hou for the time being?" ”

"What do you mean?" Bu Chan's face was as cold as ice, "Do you want me to know and not report it?" Hmph, in the military regulations of the secret guard, failing to report it is equivalent to a capital crime, do you understand? ”

"Oh, you are dead-eyed, I didn't let you not report it, I just asked you to say a few words less, you can say that I lent the Hu Gong token to others, but don't say that I lent it to Huainan Hou, is this difficult to do?" Shen Yun looked like a matter of course.

Bu Chan looked at Shen Yun carefully, and suddenly smiled: "Your Bohai Hou family is really the same as the Huainan Hou family, and even the means of maintaining each other are almost the same. Actually, before I met you, I went to see Fang Cheng, and he also asked me to do so, hoping that when I reported it, I would say that your Hu Gong token was stolen by him...... But if you make friends, you will be friends, if you deceive your superiors and subordinates like this. There will always be a day when Your Majesty will be suspicious, hmph, you have read a lot of history books, and you must be very clear about the fate of the emperor's suspicion! ”

Speaking of the back, Bu Chan's tone suddenly became stern.

When Shen Yun heard the front, he was still a little moved in his heart, but he didn't expect Fang Cheng to still think about himself. But after hearing this, he remembered the majestic face of the emperor's uncle, and couldn't help but sweat a little on his head, and sneered: "Hehe." No, it's not that serious! Your Majesty has a lot of opportunities, how can you have time to play with me! I'm only a few pounds and a few taels, not to mention, it's Hu Gong token. It's not His Majesty's ink jade token......"

Bu Chan said quietly: "Also, Recently, Your Majesty and Hu Gong are afraid that they are not in the mood to pay attention to you." Otherwise, I wouldn't have been asked to keep a low profile in this matter. ”

"Above? So there's already an order from above? Then you still scare me. Really, it is a soldier's duty to obey orders, and you should listen to the above arrangement! When Shen Yun heard that "someone above" had already given the order, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, put on a straight face, and said to Bu Chan sternly.

Bu Chan looked at his proud little appearance. There was an annoyance in his heart for no reason, and he said hatefully: "Don't think that there are people above who can do whatever they want, if it weren't for Xinzhou Zhang Sheng, do you think that no one really pursues you?" ”

Shen Yun was shocked. Exclaimed: "What did you say? Xinzhou Zhang Sheng? But Zhang Sheng, the governor of Dayue Prefecture? ”

Bu Chan knew that she was speechless, but thinking that sooner or later the news would spread all over the country, Shen Yun only knew a little earlier, so she was also relieved: "Yes, you know him?" ”

Shen Yun shook his head: "I don't know, but I know his son Zhang Xian...... Alas, I don't know if I'll ever see him again! ”

Bu Chan said: "Even if you can see it, I hope you can know your position, his father has rebelled, and now he still calls himself the emperor of the Yue clan, this is a big crime of the Jiu clan, whoever has something to do with him will definitely bring disaster." Don't say you only have the Moyu Token, even if you have a death-free gold medal, you can't escape death. ”

Shen Yun said: "Don't worry, I know." However, I'm curious, if your secret guard will conniving at the Huainan garrison to start exterminating the White Tiger Cult, is it also related to this matter? ”

Bu Chan nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, as soon as Xinzhou rebelled, the commander issued an order that all unstable factors within the empire must be solved quickly and seriously, not only Fengtai County, but also the secret guards of the entire empire have taken action, and all the forces that may threaten the stability of the empire must be wiped out in the shortest possible time!" ”

Shen Yun pouted and said, "Then why don't you arrest the Queen Mother, she is the most unstable factor in the empire!" ”

Bu Chan suddenly gloomed, looked at Shen Yun and said, "Shen, Shen Yuanrang, are you still jealous of me at that time, ...... to your father at that time?"

Shen Yun was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he shook his head with a wry smile: "No, I said, you are just a knife." If I didn't have that experience at school, I would have made the same choice from your shoes. It's still the same sentence, soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, and it's no wonder to you! I want revenge, and I will only go to the man with the knife! ”

Bu Chan was silent for a long time, and suddenly said, "Thank you, Shen Yuanrang!" ”

"Huh? What the? ”

Bu Chan suddenly turned to leave, and a short sentence floated in: "I heard it from my father, in short, thank you!" ”

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

returned to the Hou Mansion again, but did not see the Hou of Huainan, only Fang Cheng was waiting for him in Guiyun Garden.

Seeing the tired Fang Cheng hand over the Hu Gong token, Shen Yun smiled and received it in his arms, but he didn't ask or say anything.

Fang Cheng didn't seem to intend to tell Shen Yun what was going on in Fengtai County, so he just said casually: "Yuan Rang, my father and mother are going to Jinling to meet His Royal Highness Duke Ying." In a few days, I will take Yong Yan to join the army, do you want to go with you? ”

"Oh? It's a good thing that Eternal Death is finally going to join the army! Go together, go together! By the way, Fang Fang Xu also wants to join the army, can you arrange this? Back in Guiyun Garden, Shen Yun poured a glass of water and said while drinking.

Fang Cheng nodded: "Yes, my father actually had this idea for a long time, after all, at this time, Yong Yan joined the army alone, and my father was still very worried." He's already made the arrangements. By the way, Yuanrang, have you ever thought about joining the army? ”

Shen Yun glanced at Fang Cheng strangely: "Me? Bohai Hou joined the army? Will this work? ”

Fang Cheng smiled: "Why not? Don't you have a younger brother at home? But if you join the army, you will lose the title of Marquis for the time being, and you will still suffer a lot in the military school! ”

Shen Yun was interested, put down the cup and said, "I really don't know, I thought that if I became a marquis, I couldn't be a soldier!" Tell me about that military school. What's going on? ”

It turned out that the military service system of the empire was still very perfect with the participation of the Holy Ancestor, a traverser. At this time, the Han Dynasty ruled a territory twice as large as that of later generations, but its population was less than one-tenth of that of later generations, and the population base determined that the empire's military resources were not abundant. Therefore, in addition to the article that "men must serve in the military at eighteen", there is also a provision that nobles can also join the army, but they must be deprived of their titles and start from the bottom. This is to protect the purity of the army.

Of course, as a nobleman, there are still some privileges. For example, if a nobleman joins the army. You don't need to start with the C-class legion, you can directly choose any second-class legion from the fifty states to join the army. And because of his aristocratic status, he has a credit in the army, and he will be able to double it out of thin air, which is allowed by military regulations. And like Fang Cheng. As long as the parents are alive and the parents agree, they can also join the army. As for Shen Yun, the same. But he can call the shots. After joining the army. It is necessary to appoint an heir, and if there is an accident, how can this heir inherit the title.

However, although there are many benefits for nobles to join the army, few Han nobles who have really inherited the title have gone to the army to find a way out. First, after inheriting the title, there are so many things that there is no time to join the army. Second, the elders in the family must be strongly opposed, and it is not easy to make the trip.

But none of this was a problem for Shen Yun. There is a mother in charge of the family, and my aunt and a few uncles will also help, for so long. He didn't have to worry about it at all. As for the second point, it was a bit troublesome, but Shen Yun believed that if he made up his mind, his mother would still support him. but this heir...... Shen He?

For this younger brother, Shen Yun's impression is still good, but his mother makes Shen Yun feel guilty. Although Xiao Qin now lives in the county guard mansion and does not return to the Shen family at all, Shen Yun still has no good impression of her, this woman can't give her any chance, otherwise the Bohai Hou family will have to be tormented by her.

Just when Shen Yun's thoughts were flying, Fang Cheng said again: "In addition, as an imperial student, we have other benefits in joining the army. ”

"Huh? What else is there a benefit? Shen Yun hurriedly asked.

Fang Cheng said that during the period of the Holy Ancestors, great importance was attached to the enlistment of learned people into the army, so many preferential conditions were given to students from various universities to join the army after graduation, the first of which was that if students from various universities wanted to join the army after graduation, they would be given priority treatment when they were admitted to military schools in the same year. If aristocratic students want to join the army, the assessment standards of military schools will be relaxed. At the same time, it was promised that after graduating from the military school, the aristocratic students would be promoted directly to the rank of lieutenant, instead of starting as a second lieutenant like other civilian children who directly applied for the military school.

In addition, there are many material rewards, such as annual allowances, tax exemptions, knighthood considerations, etc., which are much superior to those who enter the army through other means. This is also one of the reasons why Ma Gu, Lu Zhen and others are in a hurry to join the army after graduation, they themselves occupy the advantage of the children of the nobility, and it is easier to mix in the army.

"Especially you, Yuan Rang, if you join the army, you can directly apply for Zhaowu University, which is the largest military academy in the country. What's more, His Royal Highness Hu Gong is the sacrificial wine of Zhaowu University. Hehe, if you go to apply, you will definitely be able to go to high school! Fang Cheng finished with a smile, looking at Shen Yun with a hint of envy in his eyes.

At this age, there are indeed very few people who can have such connections.

Shen Yun thought for a long time, and suddenly said, "Brother Teng Yu, why are you so actively encouraging me to join the army?" This is not like your usual you! ”

A trace of embarrassment and nervousness flashed on Fang Chen's face, but he quickly calmed down and said indifferently: "Isn't this what you want to ask, I'll just talk about it in passing." What's more, after returning to the imperial capital this time, you and I will face the problem of graduation, is it possible that you really plan to return to Bohai after graduation? ”

Although Fang Cheng covered it up quickly, and the reason was very smooth, Shen Yun always felt as if Fang Cheng had something to hide from him. But when you think about it, who doesn't have a secret that can't be said! Even if you are your own brother, there are some things that you can't know and say everything.

Besides, what Fang Cheng said did make sense, and Shen Yun should indeed think about the future. But joining the army, Shen Yun hasn't made up his mind yet. It's not that I'm afraid of suffering in the army, but I don't think it's necessary, it's not good to be a nobleman, and I have to suffer, this is the rhythm of YY's novels, not the life that Shen Yun wants.

The most important thing is that even if he joins the army, Shen Yun's revenge for killing his father cannot be avenged. The empire is now peaceful, there are no major enemies around, and the army is slowly rising. Even if there is someone above Shen Yun, he will be in the position of a general in twenty years, and what can he do if he becomes a corps commander? Could it be that he led his troops to rush into the imperial capital and pulled out the old witch and killed him?

At this time, the battle of the Tarim River Valley had not yet come, and the northwest had not yet become a major problem for the empire, so it was normal for Shen Yun to have this idea.

"Let me think again!" Shen Yun said, "Another day, I will accompany you to send Yong Yan and Renxu to join the army, and these things will be discussed when we return to the imperial capital!" By the way, it seems that school is about to start, and the matter in the imperial capital seems to be about the same, let's find a time to prepare, and return to the imperial capital. ”

Fang Cheng also nodded: "Okay." When my father and mother come back, we will go back to the imperial capital. Speaking of this, he paused and said, "This time when we go back, we will take the straight road, not the county road." ”

Shen Yun was stunned, it seemed that the matter in Fengtai County had been quite touched by Fang Jiao. Didn't say anything at the moment, just nodded. It will take about a day or two more to take the straight road, and anyway, there is nothing left and right, so it should be a tour of the Central Plains. (To be continued.) )
