Chapter 11: The Master of the Private Soldier
Seeing Xin Yi like this, Zhao Huangge instantly understood: "Do you want to say, the soldiers there?" ”
Xin Yi didn't think she would know, and was stunned for a moment before continuing: "Yes, where you let your subordinates blow up...... There are soldiers, but they are not soldiers of the imperial court. ”
During the day, Zhao Huangge summoned him and asked him to do three things.
First, the Dragon and Tiger Division guarding outside Yanhua Temple was withdrawn, divided into pieces and dispersed, and then her handwritten letter was handed over to Song Qiyuan, the guard of the Peking University Battalion, and the Dragon and Tiger Division Yuewei was transferred by him;
Second, after taking people to disguise themselves, go to the Weiyuan Commander's Mansion, and be sure to pass on Dongsan Street at about three o'clock in the Shen hour.
Thirdly, and most importantly, she wanted him to ...... blew up Baijiapo ten miles away on the outskirts of Beijing.
The Baijia slope is called Po, but because the earth dragon turned over in the early years, a ravine was formed, and now those people regard this place as ominous, so it is now inhuman.
But in such a sparsely populated place, due to the repair of the trade road a few years ago, bandits once broke out here.
Zhao Huangge asked him to blow up the bandits' den, Xin Yi naturally had no objection, but he didn't expect that instead of the bandits, a group of private soldiers were blown up.
Baijiapo, which was razed to the ground by explosives, revealed the stumps and broken arms that had been blown into wreckage, and blood flowed out, like hell on earth.
After fighting those survivors, Xin Yi sniffed out the anomaly inside more clearly.
How could such a place that claims to be a den of bandits hide private soldiers inside?
And who are these private soldiers?
Even though she was shocked in her heart, Xin Yi still arranged them one by one according to Zhao Huangge's instructions, and came back to see her as soon as she was finished.
He originally had a lot of puzzles, and he was anxious to go back and forth to Zhao Huangge, but now when he saw the other party's appearance in his chest, he felt that his heart sank, and after explaining, he added: "Master, who are you going to let your subordinates blow up?" ”
Xin Yi is not stupid, and naturally he can see that Zhao Huangge must have known the truth earlier.
Zhao Huangge originally didn't intend to hide it from him, but now when he saw him like this, he only chuckled, and said with no clear meaning: "Naturally, he is the master of the private soldiers." ”
After dropping the black oil bomb in Xiao Jingchen's room the night before, Zhao Huangge thought of a way to kill two birds with one stone.
It can not only solve this hidden danger, but also involve another scourge.
It's just that if there is a half-point difference in this matter, it will fall short.
She said this lightly, but her heart suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and then she remembered what she had asked her to do before, and her expression was even more ugly: "Could it be that this private soldier is Murong Zhong's?" ”
Murong Zhong, the commander of Weiyuan, his father is the current head of the Murong family, and he is the protector of the first emperor, half of the guards in the imperial city are related to the Murong family, such a person is involved in private soldiers, what does he want to do? !
Zhao Huangge's eyes condensed, and he said, "It's his, but it's not entirely his." ”
As she spoke, she asked, "When you came, did anyone pass?" ”
Hearing this, Xin Yi hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, my subordinates specially ordered people to guard it, and I saw that the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division was going, so I came to look for you." ”
He only felt that this matter was strange at that time, but he didn't think about it deeply, and now he heard Zhao Huangge's words, but he felt a dense coolness in his heart, if it was really as the master said, the consequences of this matter would be unimaginable!
Thinking of this, he said solemnly: "The stakes are very high, and my subordinates will go back to guard now, and never let this matter go on a business trip." ”
Seeing this, Zhao Huangge responded, and when he saw that he was leaving, Fu stopped him again, and said, "If you have any news, come and return at any time." ”
She couldn't get out of Yanhua Temple, so she could only rely on the news of her entourage.
Xin Yi respectfully complied and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
After he left, Zhao Huangge stood in front of the window, looking at the vast night, his eyes were full of deep darkness.
Not surprisingly, there will be a big drama tomorrow.
Hopefully, everything will be as she wishes.
……
The night was dark, but it was destined to be a sleepless night.
In the second half of the night, it rained, dripping down from under the eaves, and it also wet the official uniform.
Yue Zhou had been waiting outside for half an hour, and there was no complaint on his face, but his slightly swaying body showed his uneasiness at this time.
The candle flame in the hall jumped for a moment, and the next moment I saw the chamberlain walk out with a smile on his face: "Lord Yue, the emperor has summoned you, please." ”
Hearing this, Yue Zhou hurriedly smiled and thanked him, and then walked in with the people.
"Wechen knocks on the emperor, long live my emperor."
There was a man sitting behind the dragon case, about in his early forties, with an elegant face, but unfortunately he was covered by a sick and weak state, and he looked extremely weak.
It was the Emperor of Beiyue, Zhao Xianyuan.
Hearing Yuezhou's salute, he waved his hand slowly, and his voice was full of fatigue: "Calm down, I listened to the servant, do you have something important to return?" ”
Yue Zhou was one of the leaders of the four guards of the Imperial Forest Army, and he could meet the king without waiting for a summons.
But even so, in such a late night, running from Yanhua Temple, if there is no legitimate reason, the emperor is afraid that it will not be too pleasant.
Hearing this, Yuezhou saluted again, but did not say it directly, but said: "Your Majesty, this matter is very important. ”
The emperor glanced at him and motioned for the chamberlains to go out.
When there were only two of them left in the room, he said, "Say, what's the matter?" ”
The next moment, I saw Yue Zhou take out a small box from his sleeve and put it in front of the emperor's dragon case in a dignified manner: "This is from the national teacher's room." ”
The emperor opened the small box, at first with a little carelessness that he had never woken up, but when he could see the contents clearly, the hand holding the box suddenly brought strength.
"How did you search his room?"
Yue Zhou didn't dare to hide it, and he didn't want to hide it originally.
"Back to the emperor, someone broke into Yanhua Temple the night before, and Weichen searched unsuccessfully, but saw that the national teacher was in disarray, and it seemed that he had fought with others; Weichen paid attention, who knew that he didn't wait for the results to be found, but last night the Changming Palace went out of the water, and someone took advantage of the chaos to kidnap the princess, the princess disregarded her safety and strictly ordered her to stay alive for interrogation, but the national teacher ......"
When he said this, he paused, and then continued: "The national teacher used a black oil bomb to kill people on the spot. ”
Yue Zhou said, looking at the emperor's face again, seeing that he didn't seem to blame, he said at the end: "The stakes are very high, Weichen doesn't dare to delay, disturb the holy car late at night, and ask the emperor to forgive him." ”
The emperor rubbed the black oil bomb, and his expression became darker and darker under the candlelight: "How do you conclude that this thing belongs to the national teacher?" ”
Yue Zhou choked for a moment, and then thought about it: "The assassin was killed on the spot, the national teacher was unconscious, and when Wei Chen led people to clean up the national teacher's room, he accidentally found this thing, and he was ...... at the time."
It's just that before he finished his words, he heard the emperor interrupt him, and asked in a condensed voice: "Wait-what did you just say, the assassin kidnapped the princess, how is Heyang now?" ”
The eldest princess Zhao Huangge, named Heyang.
This tone was too cold, which made Yue Zhou's palms suddenly break out in a cold sweat, he had already deliberately weakened the matter of the eldest princess, who knew that the emperor still noticed it.
His voice trembled a little, and he replied in fear: "Back to the emperor, the eldest princess was a little frightened, and now she is cultivating in the temple. It's just that the assassin has been blown up, and the lower officials are trying their best to find out his identity. ”
Before Yuezhou's words fell, he saw that the emperor suddenly smashed an inkstone at him, and his voice was full of unconcealed anger: "Frightened? Are the Imperial Forest Army all eating dry food, I sent a whole guard of people, but I can't protect a Heyang?! ”
In such a hurry, the Emperor coughed violently again.
He has always been in poor health, but now the sound of coughing is thrilling, which makes Yuezhou even more trembling.
He always felt that the emperor's heart, liver and lungs were about to cough out.
It was easy to wait until the emperor calmed down, and then said slowly: "Don't say that it is a black oil bomb, even a whole black oil mine, and it can't be worth a single hair in Heyang!" Something happened, you didn't say that you were good to protect him, but you actually entered the palace and told me about these things? Don't go back quickly, if something happens to her again, I'll cut you first! ”
These words frightened Yue Zhou and hurriedly confessed, and hurriedly explained: "However, this black oil bomb ......"
He was only halfway through his words, but he was almost torn apart by the emperor's eye knife, and he hurriedly changed his words: "Yes, the lower officials will go back, and the emperor will be angry!" ”
