Chapter 329: Waiting for the Rabbit (2)
"Two adults, we, Mr. Fuji Itochi, please come in!"
"Thank you!"
"Please!"
Meng Yan and Zhou Wencai went to the lobby of the garrison at the ancient pass under the leadership of the Yanshan Right Guard Colonel.
This is the place where the commander of the ancient pass garrison Qianqian deals with military and political affairs.
"Zhou Wencai and Meng Yan of the Public Opinion Department of Jinyi Wei have seen Master Qian!" A garrison thousand generals, the official position is no more than six grades, whether it is Meng Yan and Zhou Wencai, the grades are higher than the other party, but people are the masters, and they are guests, so it is also appropriate to be polite with a fist.
Therefore, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, not to mention that this time they still have a request for people, and there should always be a posture of asking for people.
"The two lords of the Jinyi Guard, this cold and snowy place, not in the capital Nafu, what are you doing in my poor country?" Mr. Fuji said coldly.
It can be heard that there is a hint of hostility in the tone of Mr. Qian, who is surnamed Teng.
"The two of us were ordered to hunt down a fugitive, and we learned that this person may pass through the pass in the next two days, so I came to ask Lord Qianzong for help!" Zhou Wencai said.
When he came, he discussed it, and Zhou Wencai looked old, and he came forward to speak.
"Chasing fugitives, is there a letter from the Qincha?"
"This ...... There is no ......"
"If there is no official document from the Imperial Mission, how can this official know that what you said is true, if you use public weapons for private purposes, or even do some things that are traitors, won't this official become an accomplice?" Mr. Fuji Qian said coldly.
"Mr. Qian, we came in a hurry, so we couldn't bring the sea fishing papers. If you don't believe it, you can write it when there is any difference, and the official will bear it. Zhou Wencai frowned slightly, the attitude of this garrison is suspicious, even if he doesn't like Jinyiwei, there is no need to target him like this, right?
"Of course it's convenient, it's up to the two adults to get on the road!"
"This ......" Zhou Wencai and Meng Yan glanced at each other, and somewhat understood. This guy is wanting benefits.
But both of them were stumped. When they came out, they didn't bring any money with them, or they only brought some broken silver, and it was better not to take this money to bribe others!
But where can you get the money for a while?
"We came out in a hurry. Mr. Chi is relieved. Wait until we catch the thief. Your share of the benefits is indispensable! Zhou Wencai said.
"That's empty white teeth?" Mr. Fuji Qian snorted coldly, there are not many opportunities to knock on the bamboo bar of the brocade clothes, so I missed it. That would be a pity.
As for whether Jinyiwei will retaliate, then he is not afraid, he is already in this place where birds don't, and he can go somewhere else?
What's more, it's not him who is unhappy to see Jinyiwei.
"Mr. Qian, we are really in a hurry to go out, in this way, we bet our identity waist card on you here, and when the time comes, our silver will be exchanged, how about it?" Meng Yan exited the road.
"Who are you, I talk to your boss, what are you interjecting?" Mr. Teng Qian yelled at Meng Yan.
"Uh......" Meng Yan choked suddenly.
"Mr. Qian, my attributes are straight this time, and I bumped into Mr. Qian, don't you mind, I don't know how his mention is?" Zhou Wencai is a person from the Public Opinion Department, the Public Opinion Department belongs to the intelligence department of the Southern Ya, which is different from the Tiqi of the Northern Ya, those guys act arrogantly and obediently, and the work of the intelligence department has always been low-key and secretive, so Zhou Wencai is different from the Jinyiwei in the general people's cognition.
This is similar to Meng Yan's usual style.
"Hmph." Mr. Fuji Qian smiled sneeringly, "You all know this rule, there is no real money, then please forgive Mr. Ben Qian for not being able to do anything, come here, send off guests!" ”
"Mr. Fuji Qian, when it comes to this, you still refuse to help?" Meng Yan was angry, the officials of the Ming Dynasty were all so virtuous, so it was no wonder that they were taken advantage of and hid from the foundation of the country.
"Presumptuous, at a young age, how can the official speak, how can he interject?" Mr. Fuji Qian scolded coldly.
"Mr. Fuji Qian, you have to help with this today, and you have to help if you don't help!" After all the good things are said, this surnamed Teng still doesn't know how to lift, so don't blame him for being polite.
The wolf knife was on Fujiyi's neck, and the sharp blade was only half an inch away from the neck meat, and if he pushed it forward slightly, it would be blood splattered on the spot.
"You, you dare to threaten Mr. Ben Qian?" Fuji Yi didn't expect this Meng Yan to disagree with each other and draw his sword.
"How about threatening you?" Meng Yan said coldly, "A dumb official like you who openly asks for bribes and exploits business travel, even if he kills you, you should know that our Jinyi Wei is doing this." ”
Fuji Yi suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, Jinyiwei has the responsibility of supervising hundreds of officials, if it is really more serious, then he really can't eat and walk around.
The pain of prison is not something that anyone can bear.
"As long as you obediently do what our adults tell us, we are not interested in the dirty things you do, understand?" Meng Yan Road.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"Lend you, and your soldiers!" Zhou Wencai said.
"Borrowing troops, you are so bold, transferring troops without authorization is like rebellion, you might as well kill your own officer!" Fuji Yoshi's face was colorless.
"Don't worry, we're just asking you and your soldiers to help us intercept a bunch of key criminals, not to transfer you to something." Zhou Wencai said.
"Intercept the criminals, or a group?"
"You don't have to know too much, you know too much, it won't do you any good, tell me first, how many people have cleared the customs this afternoon, and is there anything abnormal, such as a large number of bald heads, or injured Mongols?"
"No, in this winter, there are a few people who enter Beijing, but few go out, and there are not many people all day."
"Is there a registration?"
"Yes, yes, but you know, some of us ......"
"You know, we don't check those, we ask someone to bring us the registration book, and prepare some wine and food for us, this day, we haven't eaten well." Zhou Wencai said, "Don't worry, I won't eat your white food." ”
"Okay, little brother. Can you take the knife away, if you touch it, it will kill you! "Fuji Chi said.
"Yes!" Meng Yan smiled slightly, and the Heavenly Wolf Knife was returned to its sheath, but a black pill suddenly stuffed into Fuji Qianzong's mouth.
Boom!
"You, what did you give me?"
"Of course it's poison, this is your territory, if you regret it, there will be two of us, and no one will know if we die here. What do you say? Mr. Chi? Meng Yan smiled.
"You, you're ......" Fujiyi clasped his throat and couldn't speak.
"Don't worry, you can't die, you are also an official of the imperial court. Kill you. We can't run either. As long as you help us get the culprit, this antidote will be given to you. Meng Yan walked over and picked up the boiling kettle. He poured a bowl of water and said.
"You, I'm ......" Fuji Yi was choked by Meng Yan's swollen face and couldn't speak.
"Mr. Fuji Qian, in your name, ordered the door to be closed, from now on, without your celebrity, anyone has to open the door in any name, is it anyone, do you understand?" Zhou Wencai ordered.
"That's fine!" Fujiyi also knows that his own life is in the hands of others, and it will not work if he does not cooperate.
"Second, quietly assemble a garrison, I don't want those old, weak, sick and disabled, these people will be sent to death when they go up, and I need your cooperation when the time comes."
Fujiyi's face turned pale, this is going to die, this is the New Year, the dead are too unlucky.
"Don't worry, it's really time to use your people, and our people are dying." Zhou Wencai said.
"Do you still have any?"
"Mr. Fuji Qian, do you really think that there are just two of us?"
Fuji Yi smiled, his eyes rolled, he is not a stupid person, he has been mixed in officialdom for many years, and he knows some of it.
"Third, maybe tonight, someone will pay a lot of money to buy you, let you switch and let them out, you can do what you usually do, and you can extort as much as you can."
Fuji Yi subconsciously swallowed his saliva: "Brother Zhou, this money?" ”
"Do you want to be alone?" Meng Yan sneered.
"No, no, how dare I think like that!"
"Don't worry, I can't treat you badly, as long as you don't brush tricks." Meng Yan smiled slightly, for people like Fujiyi, the policy of sticks and radishes is the best.
If Richi wanted to go through the ancient pass, he had to bribe the garrison, otherwise they would carry the wounded and weapons, as well as three "prisoners", and it would not be easy to clear the customs lightly.
"Got it!"
"From now on, the three of us will eat and live together, and we will wait for them to come over at this garrison!" Zhou Wencai said, "Your people, from now on, close the camp gate and are not allowed to go out." ”
This is to wait for the rabbit, whether you can catch the injured rabbit or not depends on the will of God.
Of course, you must not underestimate that Richi, this guy is very cunning, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not be prepared before.
That's all you can do.
Fuji Yi summoned his henchmen and issued an order in front of Zhou Wencai and Meng Yan, and Meng Yan also ordered his four brocade guards to follow him to the garrison camp to supervise the execution of the order.
"Brother Zhou, Brother Meng, come, I will give you a drink?"
"Please!"
The brocade guards are all in place, waiting for the prey to take the initiative to come to the door.
After nightfall, the ancient pass was dark, except for the garrison camp, there was also a bit of light, such a cold day, the campers went to bed early, there was no festive atmosphere at all.
It was really hard to be a soldier, and there was not a single new dress to be seen during the Chinese New Year, and most of the battalionmen were wearing patched torn cotton jackets, and their hands holding guns were red from the cold.
In the garrison hall, the charcoal fire was red, but it still couldn't stop the invasion of the cold, Zhou Wencai and Fuji Yi had a cup of drinking, but there were a lot of common topics, of course, there was also a lot of news.
This is the consistent practice of the people in the Public Opinion Division.
Meng Yan held his Heavenly Wolf Knife and sat in front of the brazier, leaning his back against the pillar, closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.
These guys definitely can't bear the cold of the weather outside, so if they don't come tonight, it means that they are hiding somewhere where to shelter from the wind and rain, so it will be troublesome, in the vast mountains, the weather is freezing, the snow is deep, where to find them?
Knock Knock......
A rush of footsteps came, the door of the hall was pushed open from the outside, and a cold wind blew in, which stimulated Meng Yan shuddered and opened his eyes.
"Mr. Qian's ......" (to be continued......)
