As soon as Xiang Zhong's voice fell, not only Kong Bai was in a cold sweat, but even the Minister of the Interior was also in a cold sweat, Kong Bai was his right-hand man, and there were not a few filial piety every year.

The knife and stick is a kind of punishment instrument in the army, belonging to the guy who can kill people on the body, the blade on the four sides is tightly embedded in the head of the stick, it looks like an alternative mace, generally only if you have committed a very serious crime will use this thing, and the killing and crippling all depends on the mood of the official, at the moment Xiangzhong's face is very bad, gloomy like a rainy day in June, the black can not see a little red, Kong Bai looked at his boss eagerly, this knife and stick clamped the body, not dead and disabled.

"Lord Xiang, isn't this knife and stick a little harsh?" The Minister of Internal Affairs is named Qu He, who is a student of the right minister Li Musen, and he has some disagreements with the military department on weekdays, and now this Xiang Zhong wants to kill his subordinates, as a Shangguan, even if he doesn't want to save face, he has to come out to protect him, Qu He first asked in a friendly tentative way.

Xiang Zhong twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and sneered: "Master Qu, the killing weapon workshop is the arsenal of His Majesty's royal family, these swords, guns and armor in your hands are all from their hands, don't you tell me, you don't know who the killing weapon workshop is?" Qu He's face changed slightly, Xiang Zhong explained that it was nothing more than one meaning, that is, you can't control this matter, as a leader, the most taboo thing is that your subordinates are rectified, Qu He, as the head of a department, was not frightened by his words.

Brushing his sparse beard, Qu He also said with a cold face: "Kong Bai is the commander of the Guardian Division, although the official position is not big, but the power is closely related to the safety of the imperial capital, if he has any three longs and two shorts, where will the boss put this imperial capital?"

"Come on, fight!" Xiang Zhong glanced at him obliquely, the old general from the military hated the most was the literati, insinuating, secretly thorny, anyway, Kong Bai provoked people who shouldn't be messed with, when will he wait if he doesn't clean up now, Qu He was anxious, stood up all of a sudden, waved his sleeves and said: "I see who dares to move." ”

Xiang Zhong laughed, but he didn't pay attention to him at all, the soldiers from the military department quickly stepped forward and pressed down the soldiers of the guard division in the hall, and after a few seconds, two tall military soldiers walked in with a knife and stick on the left and right, the blade on the stick was only a little bit, and there was a blood mark on the body, how many blood marks were suffered, if you sincerely want to die, as long as you use a little force, the knife wound and stick wound are enough to kill, regardless of whether the warrior is still a fighter, you can't please this stick.

Qu He was like a bullied little daughter-in-law, blowing his beard angrily and glaring at him, jumping up and down, but everyone in the whole hall cared about him, a miserable scream, Xiang Zhong said that if he hit forty knives and sticks, he would make forty knives and sticks, and as soon as the stick fell, Kong Bai made a sound like killing a pig, he never thought that he would be beaten by someone if he was mixed with the head of a division.

With a small amount of effort, Kong Bai's back was already blurred with flesh and blood, and his face was pale and he lay there obediently and was beaten without being supported, so he was the commander of the soldiers of the Imperial Capital Guard Division, although he was not a professional soldier, but his skin and flesh were also strong, and he didn't faint after being beaten with twenty sticks.

Xiang Zhong looked at it expressionlessly, Qu He sat on the chair weakly, he could only swallow all the grievances and unwillingness into his throat, and then transformed into a slow resentment in his eyes, and it was Kong Bai who was beaten, but he was not the only one with a red face and pain.

Xiang Zhong waited until the forty knives and sticks were beaten before getting up to leave, he didn't even leave a warrant to Qu He, just left a sentence to unseal, and then walked away with a high spirit, Kong Bai, who was beaten to an inhuman appearance, lay on the ground like a puddle of rotten meat, blood mixed with minced meat, the ground looked very bloody, Qu He didn't have the face to stay, and ordered his subordinates to take care of Kong Bai, and he went to Li Musen with a blue face.

As soon as the morning dawned, as soon as the early dynasty ended, Li Musen felt that his eyelids jumped, because His Majesty the Emperor gave him the task of repairing the river embankment as soon as possible, Li Xiangye did not go home as usual, but took his colleagues in his department back to the right minister's office, drank a cup of morning tea, and squinted slightly, Li Musen was about to start a day's work, but outside the door was a person who walked in, Qu He, this protégé saw himself on weekdays that he bowed his head and bowed respectfully, but today he was angry and ruined, not to mention, his palms were trembling.

"Quhe, what's wrong with you?" Li Musen didn't know what was going on at all, because the Guards Department was only a department under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what they did, Li Musen never asked, and he didn't bother to ask, "Xiangye, you have to be the master of the students." Qu He's legs bent, and he knelt down directly, and instantly cried into a tearful person.

Li Musen's expression changed, and he asked carefully, and after asking, his face remained as usual, and there was no change, "You go back first." Li Musen waved his hand, Qu He's expression changed, and he said with teary eyes: "Xiangye..." Don't say anything, go back~!" Li Musen was angry, and with a low shout, Qu He immediately shrunk his neck and walked out.

Qu He left, the entire right minister's office was quiet, everyone knew that Xiang Ye was angry, and sat quietly in the study for a quarter of an hour, Li Musen changed into an official uniform, straightened his clothes, and said, "Go to the palace." ”

Early in the morning, the commander of the Beijing Health Division was called to the lobby of the military headquarters by the deputy minister of the military department, beat 40 military sticks, not to mention, and ordered him to face the wall to reflect, in the end it was his own subordinate department, the military department started a little lighter, for the three divisions who joined in the fun, this morning was the most humiliating one since their establishment, the commanders of the divisions were beaten, not to mention, all the offices around were sealed, and thousands of people were arrested, and from beginning to end, no one even told them what happened, and many people were confused, so they didn't beat and arrested。

In the lobby of the military department, Li Yao sat on the tiger skin chair in the middle for a long time, this was originally Xiang Zhong's seat, but Xiang Zhong went out to do things, Li Yao sat up, and there were many people standing in the lobby below, led by Mu Zihao, Mu Zihao's face was slightly red, full of wine, and he wanted to have a good time in Hualou last night.

"I've seen Her Royal Highness the Princess. Although Mu Zihao was arrogant, he knew who he could mess with and who he couldn't mess with, seeing Li Yao sitting in the lobby, Mu Zihao hurriedly knelt on the ground with a smiling face, and snorted softly, Li Yao looked at Mu Zihao who was kneeling there in a bunch, and hated it in his heart, "Get up~!" said coldly, Li Yao sat up straight, and looked at Mu Zihao: "I heard that the whole city of the three divisions searched for a person yesterday?"
