Chapter 0585. manpower

"Hou Jie, you are too presumptuous! In front of you is the King of Min, the monarch of the Kingdom of Min! ”

I couldn't bear it anymore, Wu Meiniang stood up angrily, pointed at Hou Jie and scolded, but unfortunately, this kid's bearded head wrapped in a big white turban nodded indifferently: "I know this, so he asked me to go all the way to Constantinople to save his little lover, I'll go." ”

Wu Meiniang, who had an unruly attitude and was really angry, trembled, but Li Jie smiled bitterly again and grabbed her little hand that was about to call the palace guards and pressed him back, and then looked back helplessly.

"Things are not so simple, Yang Xiong sent a letter, the son of the Byzantine Emperor, the co-ruling emperor Constantine IV, and the general of the Epshkin military region, Mezchos, dissatisfied with the emperor's order to flee and move the capital, hoping to rescue Anna to fulfill the alliance with Fujian, and marry Anna to Gu in exchange for Fujian sending troops to alleviate the Arab Empire's offensive in Asia Minor."

"However, when did we in Fujian ever trade at a loss? The last time Anna's little girl deceived the king with a mouth, she had to confide the most precious information, and gave her two years of peace preparation time for Byzantium, but Min didn't even see a tribute Mao, and now, this power should also be taken out to consume, Hou Jie, Lone not only needs you to rescue Anna from Galatafort, Lone also needs you to put her on the throne, lead the Byzantines to resist Arabia to the death, and create opportunities for Fujian to send troops to Arabia. ”

Standing up from the throne and leaning forward against the table, Li Jie stared at Hou Jie's eyes and asked, "Now, do you still have the confidence to do it?" ”

This time, the arrogant Hou family boy finally hesitated, and then asked, "How many people can you give me?" ”

"Lone can only give you a hundred people, not that you can't give more, now that the Arab Empire is in flames, you can't bring it with you more, in order to cover your identity, Lone gives you a caravan, wealth is deployed, and the power of Fujian in Byzantium is also at your disposal."

"Take my Grim Reaper Nightcrawler?"

"My dear brother-in-law, you don't want to show up in Constantinople with a group of negroes, do you?"

Li Jie's joking tone made Hou Jie couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and after a pause, he nodded and agreed: "People want me to pick it myself." ”

"Yes, the leader of the various armies has already gathered a dozen or so people." Readily agreed, Li Jie waved his sleeves to the surroundings and said ostentatiously, but unfortunately looked at the dozen or so elite soldiers kneeling in front of the emperor, but Hou Jie shook his head.

"None of them can do it."

"Forehead ......"

In the rumbling drums, the guards of the Min Dynasty and the elite squad of the sixteen members of the Beijing Division at this time were all gathered on the large playground in front of the Zichen Hall of the Min Palace, with more than 5,000 people.

"Put!"

Under the officer's order, more than 100 straw handles were quickly and neatly placed, and the sergeants of the forbidden army were immediately withdrawn.

"Shoot!"

Another order, more than 100 sharp soldiers held the bow in front, and in an instant the target was full of arrows, and after a few rounds, the grass was already densely covered with arrows, almost all of them were red.

"Kill !!" Amid the rumbling hooves of horses, dozens of knights flew by, and the heads of the scarecrows along the way splashed. "Drink !!"

In the shouts of dozens of wrestlers, hundreds of pounds of boulders were thrown out more than five feet away.

Inspecting his most elite troops, Li Jie's face was also full of pride and triumph, but unfortunately after looking around, Hou Jie, the kid, still shook his turban: "Not one." ”

Li Jie almost vomited blood again, and asked sadly, "Then what kind of person do you want?" ”

Without answering, Hou Jie suddenly quickly touched the horizontal knife of the guard next to him, and the snowy blade actually slashed at Li Jie, and then exploded suddenly behind him, and the horizontal knife flew out immediately.

"Rebel daring?" The stunned guards reacted at this time, and dozens of knives came out of their sheaths and rested on Hou Jie's neck, but Hou Jie, who turned around, looked at the thin figure wearing a silver mask with a fire gun behind him in a daze, and it took a while to come back to his senses, pointed at the man and said, "I want him!" ”

"Humble Li Que to meet General Zhonglang." Dropping the firecracker, the silver-faced young man turned over and knelt down on one knee, his imperceptible eyes revealing complexity and worry, Li Jie waved his hand helplessly and retreated from the guards.

"This person ......, well, here you go, what about the rest?"

"Give me a sum of money, I will choose the people myself, and besides, I don't want the caravan for me, the soldiers are in a hurry, I can't take a hundred blacks to Constantinople, and I can't bring a hundred silk boxes to Constantinople." Looking back, Hou Jie replied casually.

Half an hour later, the postponed Fujian Dynasty Meeting was finally held as scheduled, and the ministers who were waiting for the news of the knighthood and various speculations finally got their wish to see the King of Min.

"The ministers knocked on the King of Min Chitose." In the center of the spacious and bright court, hundreds of ministers fell to the ground neatly, red robes, purple robes, knocked down a large area, after the mountain called, Li Jie also lived up to expectations, and announced the major matters that the ministers were most concerned about at the beginning of the dynasty.

"Come in and I pacify the South Tianzhu barbarians, the ministers are loyal to their duties when Lone is not there, and they are quite meritorious, therefore, Lone carefully decides to be the fire Chang'an, and the title of the ministers, this time, Lone intends to seal the county marquis ten, the county is fifty-two, the county is one hundred and seven, and the county is ...... man."

The sound of yin and yang frustration resounded in the palace of the king of Min under the expectation of the ministers, and at this time, Hou Jie, a strange middle guard, had already taken his first subordinate silver-faced young general Li Que out of the palace, and walked on the street of Beijing with only two rides.

"Lord Zhonghujun, aren't you going to see your sister?" A crisp voice came from under the dull silver mask, but Hou Jie, who was walking in front of the horse, turned his head and turned back, staring at the only pair of eyes exposed by Li Que's mask and asked, "Why do you know me so deeply?" ”

"The adults are powerful at the border passes, the hundred horsemen are subdued by Kangguo, and dozens of tribes are single-handedly recruited to return, who doesn't know, who doesn't know, the deeds of the adults, the last general has also studied." The pupils didn't even twitch for a moment, Li Que said calmly, staring at her eyes for a long time, Hou Jie turned his head around, but said something incoherent.

"Your eyes are beautiful, if only they were green."

A pair of black pupils were still as usual, but Li Que, who was walking behind him, was shocked, this kung fu, Hou Jie raised his horsewhip to urge the war horse but ran up, and the galloping war horse suddenly frightened the pedestrians on the road to hide on both sides, and the things they carried fell to the ground in an uproar.

"My lord, where are you going?" Startled, Li Que also hurriedly urged the horse to rush over and asked loudly.

"It's nothing, go find a friend, and after finding him, let's leave Jingshi and go to work for the prince of Min." The horse did not stop at all, urging the fast horse to run rampant in the crowd along the way, seeing that the people of Jingshi cursed and avoided one after another, Hou Jie's answer was actually accompanied by a hint of happiness.

He's really changed a lot! Thinking about it, Li Que also sped up the speed of the horse and caught up all the way, and it was not bad in half a step.

If you want to say where the most prosperous Jingshi, it is the third street of Shenxian Fang, although there are many entertainment venues in the land of fireworks in Jingshi, but there is really no such hot and prosperous place as here, on the one hand, several Fengyue sect masters on the third street are worth a lot, and the beauties here have everything from Yangzhou thin horses to North African black beauties, and the backers here are very hard, and the largest ones are still opened by the brothers of the princess of Fujian.

Second, the people who are looking for pleasure here are also of high grade, but they can't come if they have money, and they are also deflated if they don't have a certain status, and the Tang Dynasty and Fujian do not prohibit officials from having fun, in the third street, it is easy to meet a Punjabi prince, a high-ranking official of the fourth or fifth grade, or a sea merchant worth hundreds of millions of dollars in Tianzhu, boating on the Qinhuai Lake on the third street dug through the heart, drinking grapes from the Western Regions to talk about business, has become a popular Beijing teacher.

Communicating the Ganges River, flowing from the water gate into the city and converging on the Qinhuai Lake, on a rather large painting boat, the leader of the Great Wind and Moon, the wide and fat uncle Wu Yuanqing of the dynasty is sleeping comfortably, yesterday accompanied almost Yangzhou Dashang drank in the middle of the night, until now he has not woken up, just when Wu Yuanqing was sleeping in a daze, there was a noise outside, in the haze, Wu Yuanqing, full of displeasure muttered.

"Didn't the master say that? Everything is postponed to the afternoon, don't call me when the sky falls, anyway, it's none of my business to be knighted. ”

"Lao Tzu, that stingy sister won't give me a title." Turning over sourly, muttering, Wu Yuanqing was going to continue to sleep, but suddenly the cabins shattered into several petals, and then a basin of cold water was poured on his head, and Wu Yuanqing jumped up with a snort like a pig.

"That bastard dares to break ground on the master's head, hey, little monkey, why are you willing to come back from the border pass?"

The one who came in with a big smile and threw the basin in, it was not Hou Jie or the other, following him, but Li Que was covering a pair of eyes on the silver mask, and what she saw along the way really made her unbearable to come out of the deep palace.

"Less nonsense, don't you want Lao Tzu to find a way to get you a princess? There will be a way, hurry up and get dressed and go with Lao Tzu. He laughed indifferently, compared to facing Li Jie in the deep palace, Hou Jie finally had some enthusiasm at this time, he didn't lie, King Min really ordered him to "get the princess".

It's a pity that Wu Yuanqing, who was in a daze, didn't know, or yawned and took advantage of his lazy waist, Wu Yuanqing reluctantly exposed his fat chest into Tang Clothes, and muttered unwillingly: "Is there something to say in the afternoon?" ”

"You want the princess to be the pillar of your green building, there are so many afternoons, hurry up and follow Lao Tzu!" didn't give Wu Yuanqing much time to think, dragging Wu Yuanqing, who hadn't finished passing his clothes, Hou Jie turned around and walked out again, following all the way, Li Que's eyes behind the mask were full of suspicion, didn't he go to Byzantium to rescue Princess Anna? What's the use of taking this fat man.

Anyway, all of them were suspicious, and Wu Yuanqing, who was dragged into the water in a daze, was stuffed into the carriage, took the dozen or so cavalry of the Punjabi Army when Hou Jie came, and galloped all the way to the western .......
