The former soldiers and horses entered the city, and there was a great chaos in Tongzhou City. On the streets, there were sergeants with Hubei accents, scurrying around like headless flies, asking each other, "Where are you going to eat?" Where to sleep? Grandma's, no one cares about Lao Tzu! ”

In the Menghong Mansion where Zhu Youzhen, Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan met, Guan Ning was lying comfortably on a soft couch, and while letting the most popular Yanran girl beat his legs for him, he smiled at Wan Jisong, one of the four masters of Dongchang: "Wan Qian, our family listens to the chaos outside, is it that the fifth child has broken into the city?" ”

This Wan Qisong is about fifty years old, thin and withered, his temples are already gray, and at first glance, he looks like an ordinary old man. But Guan Ning knew his details very well, and he was quite jealous of him.

He was originally a man in the rivers and lakes, relying on his amazing swordsmanship to create his own "Ten Thousand Swordsmen". He once defeated the heads of the four factions of Wudang, Emei, Qingcheng, and Yandang who were good at using swords in one day, and his prestige was shocked for a while. After many years of operation, there are more than 1,000 disciples of Wanjianmen, and the prestige of the rivers and lakes has hidden the trend of overshadowing the martial arts factions such as Shaolin and Wudang.

But Wan Qisong is extremely greedy for money, and it is precisely by taking advantage of this that Wei Zhongxian spent a lot of money to snare him into his account. Except for the mysterious master, there is no one in Dongchang who is Wan Qisong's opponent, so he is extremely important, and he is often taken by Wei Zhongxian as a personal guard.

This time, Wan Qisong was sent by Wei Zhongxian to follow Guan Ning on the expedition. Of course, he still has other priorities, and even Guan Ning doesn't know.

Seeing Guan Ning asking at this time, Wan Qisong smiled indifferently and said, "Father-in-law Guan, the old man just went out to see it." King Xin sent Zuo Guang to forcibly ascend the city gate, and then deceived the city gate, and let in all the 10,000 soldiers of the front army. ”

"Good! Let him make trouble! Guan Ning said with a smile, "Our family is worried that we can't find his handle, so he sent it to the door!" Zuo Guangxian, a fool, disobeyed military orders and trespassed into the city, this is a capital crime! Since he is willing to be the fifth ghost's substitute for the dead ghost, then he has to let him go to his dead ghost brother first! ”

Wan Qisong groaned: "Father-in-law, now that there is a big chaos in the city, let's be careful." Is it that the old man first kept his father-in-law out of the city and avoided it for a while? ”

Guan Ning screamed and laughed: "It's a mess, the more chaotic our family is, the happier our family is!" It's better that these soldiers and oilers toss more and do something to rob homes and rape women. When the time comes, let's put all the accounts on the heads of Lao Wu and Zuo Guangxian! If there is another mutiny or firefight, it will be even better, even Sun Chengzong's old guy can be cleaned up together!

"As for going out of the city, we don't think it's necessary!" Guan Ning followed the example of his godfather Wei Zhongxian, and kept touching his smooth chin, "First, we are not in the Tongzhou Mansion, nor in the Tongzhou Wei Yamen, but in this Dream Red Mansion." He doesn't have clairvoyance and ears, can he know that our family is here? Second, isn't there still Wan Qi in charge of you? With you here, whoever breaks in is unlucky! ”

The two were talking, and suddenly broke into a Dongchang fan from outside.

Guan Ning said angrily: "There are no rules! Who let you break in! ”

The fanzi hurriedly knelt down and said, "Lord Eunuch, it's not good!" ”

"It's a big thing to have a fart! Can Jianyu still fight here? Guan Ning pouted.

"No, King Xin and the former army commander Zuo Guangxian led the army to surround this place!" Fanzi said in a panic.

"What!" Guan Ning and Wan Qisong were all shocked and bounced up from their chairs.

Guan Ning was so nervous that his voice trembled slightly: "He... How did they find it, and what did they want to do? How dare you be so bold?! ”

Before Guan Ning's words fell, Zhu Youzhen had already led Zuo Guangxian, Qi Meifeng, Wang Wenbin, and dozens of Qi family soldiers into the hall of Menghong Mansion in stride, laughing and laughing: "It turns out that the Lord of the Prison Army is here, so it is easy for this king to find!" If it weren't for the Chai Gonggong of Dongchang to lead the way, this king would never have imagined that the Lord of the Prison Army could have this kind of Yaxing! ”

Guan Ning saw that Zhu Youzhen was covered all over his body, and the soldiers behind him were also murderous, panicked in his heart, his legs were weak, and he involuntarily wanted to kneel.

Seeing this, Wan Qisong gently pulled beside him and gestured with his eyes.

Only then did Guan Ning remember that he was no longer the chief eunuch of the Wenhua Hall or the Xinwang Mansion, and he was no longer Zhu Youzhen's minion, but the commander of the soldiers and horses of the King of Qin. At this moment, there was Wan Qisong to protect him, and he also forced himself to stabilize his mind, and said with a dry laugh: "It turned out to be King Xin's Chitose!" Our family has lost its welcome, and I ask the prince to forgive me! ”

Zhu Youzhen strode forward, sat down on a chair unceremoniously, and said with a hippie smile: "Lord Prison Army, you may not know that this dream of the Red Mansion, this king has been here once. This time I revisited the old place, I wanted to relive the mandarin dream, but I didn't think I couldn't find a beauty, but I met the overseer. Don't you hear the poem: How sad can you be, just like a group of eunuchs going up to the Qinglou! The overseer is not in the government, what are you doing here? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the dozens of Qi family soldiers at the door couldn't hold back any longer, and they all burst into laughter. The Dongchang fans in the hall wanted to laugh but didn't dare, and their faces were flushed one by one. Zuo Guangxian, Qi Meifeng and the others couldn't help but wonder, thinking to themselves that Li Houzhu's wonderful words came out of this person's mouth, how did they change their taste!

As the saying goes: don't hit someone in the face, don't scold someone, don't expose it. Zhu Youzhen's words are also too damaging, and they are more mean than scolding the bald man in front of the monk.

Guan Ning was still timid in his heart, but when he heard this, his face changed, and he suppressed his anger and said: "The government is the office of the superintendent, how can this prison army occupy the magpie's nest?" Moreover, this prison army is sympathetic to the soldiers and horses of the King of Zhuluqin, and they are not willing to grab space with them. Houses such as Tongzhou Wei and various inns were given to them to live in, and the prison army had to be aggrieved and come here to rest for the time being. ”

"Oh? The Lord of the Overseer still knows that King Qin's soldiers and horses have been tired all the way? Zhu Youzhen sneered, "In that case, why don't you just let the former army enter the city?" ”

"It turns out that King Chitose is here to ask for the guilt of the former military teacher!" Guan Ning stiffened his neck and said toughly, "Since you have been to Tongzhou, you should know how big this Tongzhou City is?" More than 60,000 Qinwang soldiers and horses are all crowded in, is there a place to live?

"Supervisor Sun Chengzong went to Jizhou to inspect, and the supervising army had to arrange expedient, so that the former army could camp outside the city first. After the other soldiers and horses have replenished the grain and grass, and after they have been pulled, they will not be able to enter the city. Left light first! What crime should you be guilty of disobeying the orders of the generals and inciting the king to make trouble with the prison army! ”

Zuo Guangxian's whole body trembled, and just wanted to kneel down to defend himself, Zhu Youzhen grabbed him and said: "It turns out that this is not the arrangement of the Inspector, but the Supervisor of the Army's own opinion, no wonder it is so ***!" The front army arrived first, and it should have entered the city first. Even if you are not allowed to enter the city, at least you should provide food and grass, and you can't let the army eat and drink outside the city! The overseer is so ignorant, and the former soldiers are complaining! If there is any clamor or even mutiny in the army, can you old man afford this responsibility?! ”

Guan Ning spread his hands and pretended to be helpless and said: "This prison army also wants to provide grain and grass for the former army, but it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice!" Look, Lord Wang! ”

As he spoke, Guan Ning picked up an account book from the table, and handed it to Zhu Youzhen while pretending to be respectful, and said in embarrassment: "This is the record of today's distribution of grain, grass, firearms and ammunition. It was freezing on this day, and the grain in the south of the Yangtze River could not be transported, and the grain depot in Tongzhou City only had a total of 300,000 stones. Inspector Sun had shipped 100,000 stones to Shanhaiguan and Jizhou yesterday, and there were still 200,000 stones left. As soon as King Qin's soldiers and horses came, the center, left, right, and rear four armies each divided 50,000 stones, and now there is not even a grain of grain in the granary. ”

"There's no food?" Zhu Youzhen flipped through the account book and asked anxiously.

"yes, it's gone!" Guan Ningpi said with a smile on his face.

Zhu Youzhen was silent for a moment, and suddenly pointed at Guan Ning's nose and scolded: "Guan Ning, my uncle!" What the do you do? No, you immediately ask the other people to distribute some food to the front army! ”

"Lord Wang, please don't use foul language!" Guan Ning was also annoyed, and said sadly, "The food has been distributed by the supervising army, and the rest of the matter will not be under our family's control." If you want bread, ask the Lord where you are going. But I'm afraid that those Qiu Bake are all greedy for money, and the food has already entered their mouths, and it is difficult to pull it out again! ”

"You... You wait for me! Zhu Youzhen said angrily, "Where are the masters now?" Get them for me right now! ”

Guan Ning sank his face and said: "Lord Wang, don't forget, you are only going out on behalf of the Son of Heaven, but you don't have the right to command the army!" Now that Inspector Sun is not there, all the people in Tongzhou City have to be controlled by this supervising army! All the men and horses have been stationed in the city, and the lord will have his own responsibility, and without the order of this supervising army, whoever dares to act without permission will be guilty of death! ”

"Okay, you Guan Ning!" Zhu Youzhen said angrily, "Come on, take him down for this king!" ”

He originally thought that if he gave an order, Zuo Guangxian, Wang Wenbin and others would rush up, beat Guan Ning half to death first, and then snatch his talisman arrow. But when he turned his head, everyone was cowardly, and they all stepped back vigorously, but no one dared to go to the former.

And Wan Qisong, who had been standing quietly behind Guan Ning, stepped forward at this time, looking at the audience, his eyes were shining.

Zuo Guangxian, Qi Meifeng and the others immediately felt a powerful aura coming over, and only then did they know that there was a grandmaster-level master here, and they didn't dare to act rashly.

Seeing this, Guan Ning laughed and said, "Lord Wang, why are you so angry!" We know you're joking, but it's not too early, and it's time for the prince to find a place to rest. Come on, send the prince out! ”

Zhu Youzhen saw that Guan Ning was going to kick himself out, so he was really anxious, stepped forward and grabbed Guan Ning's neck and said, "You tell me again!" ”

Guan Ning saw Zhu Youzhen's eyes glaring, clenching his fists, his face turned pale with fright, and he screamed repeatedly: "Lord Wang, do you still want to beat this prison army?" ”

"I'll just beat you, what's wrong?" Zhu Youzhen shouted angrily, but when he saw Wan Qisong on the side staring at him coldly, he didn't dare to really start.

At this moment, a person outside the building strode in, and said in a loud voice: "Supervisor Sun Chengzong is here, stop for me!" ”
