Walking to the back hall, Qin Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, and his heart was still like thousands of rabbits, bouncing around. Come to think of it, the object of showing off your power just now is a state official! Sitting on the chair, Qin Xuan couldn't help but lose his mind a little, staring blankly ahead, remembering that he had reprimanded the wine bags and rice bags in the Assassin Mansion sonorously and forcefully, and a trace of smugness unconsciously appeared on the corners of his mouth.

Qin Xuan, who was both nervous and happy, was immersed in his mind, and even Zhao Siyuan had already walked in front of him to talk to him, but he didn't notice it, and he kept smirking. Seeing this, Zhao Siyuan couldn't help frowning, stretched out his hand and shook it up and down in front of Qin Xuan's eyes, raised his voice, and said, "My lord! Why are you laughing? ”

Qin Xuan heard the voice at this time, and suddenly a spirit was stirred, and then he saw Zhao Siyuan's calloused palm, swinging around in front of his eyes. touched his head awkwardly, then reached out to pat Zhao Siyuan's arm away, and said casually: "That...... It's okay! Have the officials of the Assassin's Mansion made arrangements? ”

Zhao Siyuan suddenly withdrew his arm, avoided Qin Xuan's patting, and then said in a resolute tone: "Don't worry, my lord, it has been arranged in the side room!" ”

Qin Xuan couldn't help but be happy, laughed a few times, nodded slightly, and said calmly: "That's good!" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the chair beside him. Zhao Duwei, you're welcome, sit down quickly! ”

After Zhao Siyuan sat down, Qin Xuan's right arm pillowed on the square table between the two, his upper body leaned slightly towards Zhao Siyuan, and his fingers gently stroked the tip of his nose. "Captain Zhao, Zhechong Mansion still needs you to be in charge, so you don't need to participate in tonight's operation against the Salt Gang's lair, just take care of this group of dog officials!"

Zhao Siyuan obviously hesitated, but he had been obedient to orders for a long time, and he still habitually bowed his head and said: "Obey orders!" ”

The sun sets, and the sun sets.

The backyard of the Folding House, that is, the school field. More than 1,000 guards stood neatly in two phalanxes, one large and one small. Qin Xuan, Zhao Siyuan, Sui Yunping, and Xing Honglin took big steps, walking on the wooden plank, and some simple points made a squeaky sound.

After all, Zhao Siyuan was the leader of the Zhichong Mansion, and he gave Qin Xuan a slight salute, then walked straight to the front of the Dianjiangtai, and said in a deep voice: "This official has been coming to Hangzhou to lead the Zhichong Mansion for several months, and he has been training for a long time!" I have never told you and others that this official came to Hangzhou by His Majesty's secret order to assist Lord Qin in thoroughly investigating the matter of Hangzhou's salt tax. ”

Zhao Siyuan paused slightly, and then said, "Right now, Lord Qin has already clarified the case!" It is necessary for the guards to raise their horizontal knives and take down all these corrupt and perverted people! ”

Zhao Siyuan's words, although a little dull and weak, but his voice was loud and high, which immediately caused the sound of "drink-drink-" from the guards in the audience.

Qin Xuan on the side looked at it, although the guard was not wearing leather armor, but he still exuded a majestic momentum with a horizontal knife in his hand. The sassy and heroic posture made Qin Xuan suddenly feel a little excited, and his heartbeat began to accelerate, and the true colors of a man buried deep in his heart also surged into his heart in an instant.

After a few refreshing breezes, Qin Xuan came back to his senses, looked left and right for a long time, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Obviously asked Sui Yunping to choose people with strong hands and quick hands and feet, why did almost all the guards of the Zhichong Mansion be present? Looking sideways at Sui Yunping, he asked in a deep voice: "Captain Sui, could it be that the guards of Hangzhou Zhichong Mansion are all agile soldiers?" ”

Sui Yunping was slightly stunned, and after thinking about it for a while, he figured out the meaning of Qin Xuan's words, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Lord Qiqi, I don't know how many skilled guards are needed for my lordship, so I will select all the 1,200 guards in Zhichong Mansion, eliminate 200 of them who are relatively weak, and let them stay in Zhichong Mansion to assist Zhao Duwei in taking charge." The remaining 1,000 guards are now all in the queue under the stage. ”

When Qin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be a little disappointed in Sui Yunping: Your uncle, what is the difference between you doing this and doing nothing! I couldn't help but shake my head slightly, but at the same time, I saw Sui Yunping's words change, and then said: "Thousands of guards, a hundred guards in the east are all very agile and clever people in the military government!" The nine hundred men on the west side are arranged in thirty columns and thirty rows, from front to back, in order of agility. ”

Qin Xuan couldn't help but be a little surprised, and the previous disappointment with Sui Yunping also vanished, replaced by an overflowing appreciation. Nodding slightly, he spoke: "Captain Sui is meticulous, and the official is very satisfied!" As he spoke, he pointed to the eastern phalanx and asked, "The hundred guards in the east are also arranged according to their skills?" ”

Sui Yunping didn't get carried away because of Qin Xuan's casual praise, and still responded without changing his face and heartbeat: "Yes!" ”

Qin Xuan stretched out his hand and gently patted Sui Yunping's shoulder, smiled slightly, and turned around. looked at Xing Honglin behind him and asked, "Honglin, you know very well the situation of the Salt Gang's lair, how many guards do you think you need to rescue Ye Le?" ”

Xing Honglin was slightly stunned, then frowned and thought to himself for a long time before blurting out: "Son, only ten people are enough, the more people there are, the easier it is to be exposed!" ”

Qin Xuan nodded and didn't talk to Xing Honglin again. Instead, he turned to the guard phalanx, secretly sorted out his thoughts, and then said impassionedly: "First introduce yourself, this official has come to verify the matter of Hangzhou's salt tax by His Majesty's secret order!" Looking around, seeing that the guards were still standing upright in place and did not respond, Qin Xuan felt bored, and then spoke: "Now, this official has found out that there is a gang of salt sellers who have formed a gang to vigorously buy salt and resell it privately!" ”

Qin Xuan paused slightly, chuckled a few times, and said, "Maybe you and the others think that this matter has nothing to do with you and the others, but this official wants to tell you!" Speaking of this, Qin Xuan stretched out his finger, pointed upward, and said word by word: "Big mistake!" ”

Looking at the guards staring at him with wide eyes, a smile appeared on the corner of Qin Xuan's mouth, and then explained: "If the salt tax cannot be collected normally, the imperial court will have no money. If the court has no money, who will pay you military salaries? He coughed lightly and shouted: "The salt seller's move is to indirectly take your money, are you willing?" ”

"Unwillingly—unwillingly—" The thousands of guards in the audience suddenly let out a loud cry in the sky.

Qin Xuan stretched out his hands and pressed downward. "Okay, since you don't want to, then go with this official and wipe out all these rats!"

"Catch ...... in one go"

Seeing this, Zhao Siyuan on the side couldn't help but look at Qin Xuan with admiration. With just a few words, it will affect the morale of the guards of the mansion, and it is even more incredible that it can make the guards disgusted with the salt gang. Mixed with admiration and curiosity, he couldn't help but turn to Qin Xuan.

Qin Xuan seemed to enjoy this feeling of being in a hurry, and after a long time, he said, "Okay, it's worthy of being my Tang Dynasty man!" As he spoke, Qin Xuan jumped forward lightly and jumped to the bottom of the Dianjiang platform. Seeing this, Zhao Siyuan and the others behind him hurriedly followed.

Qin Xuan walked to the front of the eastern phalanx, with a straight face, and said in a deep voice: "The eastern phalanx, the first row of guards is out!" ”

The ten guards took a step forward in unison, then stood in place with their heads held high, and blurted out, "Here!" ”

Qin Xuan stretched out his hand and pointed at Xing Honglin, his face was indescribably serious. "Order you to wait with the official's personal guard Xing Honglin, and go to the salt gang's lair to rescue Ying Yele in the official mansion!"

"Yes!"

Qin Xuan nodded, turned to Xing Honglin and said softly: "Honglin, set off immediately, all actions are up to you, don't be careful!" ”

Xing Honglin clasped his hands into fists and said, "Yes, Childe, this trip will definitely rescue Brother Ye Le safely!" ”

After Xing Honglin left with the ten guards, Qin Xuan said to the remaining ninety people in the eastern phalanx: "The ones who left just now are all you and other brothers, and now the brothers are going to the Longtan Tiger's Den, and they need you to wait for them, are you afraid?" ”

"Don't be afraid!"

Qin Xuan smiled slightly and blurted out, "Okay!" He turned his head to look at Sui Yunping, who was already about to move. Captain Sui, you take these ninety brothers, set off after dark, go to Shixi Mountain, lurk at the foot of the mountain, and capture anyone who goes up and down the mountain on the spot! ”

"Obedience!"

Then, Qin Xuan walked to the western phalanx again, looking at the nine hundred guards in front of him who were a little disappointed, the corners of Qin Xuan's mouth curled, and he said with a smile: "It's not that you don't have a task because you're not good enough, cheer up and look at this official!" After a sweep, seeing that his words had some effect, Qin Xuan struck while the iron was hot, and continued: "Everyone has their own strengths, and the tasks assigned by this official will also vary from person to person. And the task you have to accept is to rush to the north bank of Wulin Water before the time, and then Ling Zhiyang Ling Duwei will send you to the foot of the West Mountain! ”

"Of course, this official will also go with you, and when the time comes, surround the lair of the salt gang and capture the salt sellers, and it will depend on your brothers!" As Qin Xuan spoke, he folded his hands and bowed deeply.

A brother, a gesture, a bow, made the nine hundred guards boil instantly. "Surround the Salt Gang - Capture the Salt Dealers-"

Qin Xuan straightened up, stretched out his hands, and pressed downward. "Good! Brothers, take a rest and eat something now, but you are not allowed to leave the Zhichong Mansion, and after dark, go to the north bank of Wulin Water with the official! ”

The guards dispersed, and Qin Xuan and Zhao Siyuan returned to the back hall. The two of them sat down, and Zhao Siyuan blurted out praise: "I never thought that Lord Qin would buy a thousand guards with just three inches of incorruptible tongue, which made the lowly position ashamed!" ”

Qin Xuan smiled slightly, waved his hand, and said very weakly: "Carving insect skills, why worry about it!" ”

Zhao Siyuan couldn't help but be stunned, and then showed an ugly smile. "Lord Qin, be humble!"

Qin Xuan also knew that there was a limit to pretending, so he coughed lightly and said, "Captain Zhao, success or failure depends on tonight's trip. ”

Qin Xuan frowned, stared at Qin Xuan and blurted out: "My lord, you have explained it several times, do you not trust your humble position like this?" ”

Qin Xuan was slightly stunned, then laughed dryly, and said: "It's not that I don't trust Zhao Duwei, but this official is a little worried, since Zhao Duwei is so confident, then this official won't say more!" ”
