Chapter 184: Red Pupils!
Zhang Chai didn't mean to target these low-level characters, he knew in his heart that the empire's ** had already formed a bad atmosphere, even if he wanted to manage it, it was impossible to completely stop it, but he just couldn't get used to this kind of ** wind, and it was necessary to give them a proper warning.
"Get up, as long as you follow the rules, I won't embarrass you. In the future, whoever is outstanding will be recommended by myself. Zhang Chai said lightly.
He won't be so stupid as to make people's hearts distracted, so it's not good for him, since he has slapped him, he must give a sweetness, which is the most basic way to win people's hearts.
The officials of the Ministry of War and the two teams of Imperial soldiers breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, in their minds, this envoy of the First Emperor was not an ordinary greedy person, which made them have a good impression of Zhang Chai.
For Zhang Chai, the most important thing at the moment is to figure out the progress of the plot, and now he happens to be the envoy of the First Emperor who commands the Guards, so he can use the Guards to collect intelligence, which can save a lot of time.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chai's gaze fell on a middle-aged man who looked like a commander among the two teams of imperial soldiers, and asked, "You should be my subordinate, right?" ”
"Yes!" The middle-aged man bowed down and clenched his fists and said, "If you return to the envoy, except for the royal chamberlain, the soldiers in the imperial city can be at your disposal." ”
Zhang Chai nodded, and asked again, "What's your name?" ”
The middle-aged man replied, "Your subordinate Gru is the deputy commander of the Guards, and he is ready to be sent by you, Lord Messenger!" ”
Zhang Chai raised his eyebrows and said: "Okay, I have a task to give you now, to search for a country boy named Tazmi in the imperial capital for me, and if you can find him, bring him over to meet me." By the way, remember to be polite to him. ”
Tazmi is the male protagonist in the original book, and if he can find Tazmi in the imperial capital, then he will be able to quickly grasp the plot.
"Yes! Subordinates retire! Gru immediately took the two groups of Imperial soldiers out of the headquarters and headed in the direction of the imperial capital to search for Tazmi's whereabouts.
After that, Zhang Chai began to deal with affairs in the military department seriously. He wanted to understand the general system of the empire, and to extract some of the current situation within the empire from the mouths of the officials of the Ministry of War.
Before you know it, it's evening, and it's getting dark.
Zhang Chai walked out of the military headquarters and lazily supported his waist. Looking up at the sky, I found that the night sky in this world is very beautiful, and I can clearly see the brilliant Milky Way, this night scene is as beautiful as a dream, but it is a pity. Beneath the beautiful galaxy is an extremely decaying empire, which has to be said to be ironic.
At this time, the official of the military department also came out, and after a short contact, he felt that Zhang Chai was still very good at talking, of course, provided that he could not touch Zhang Chai's taboo. He smiled and invited, "Your Excellency, do you want to go to the imperial capital together?" Now happens to be the busiest time in the imperial capital, you are new to the imperial capital, it would be a pity not to go out for a walk. ”
Zhang Chai pondered for a moment. said: "Well, it's okay, you can take me to the imperial capital to have a look." ”
If you want to gain a firm foothold in this world, then understanding the humanistic customs of this world must definitely be a must-do homework, and he will naturally not refuse the invitation, anyway, it is also a smooth sailing.
Accompanied by a team of imperial soldiers, the two left the imperial city together and arrived in the vast imperial capital.
The planning and construction level of the entire imperial capital is very high, and the lights in the city are bright, and the paper is drunk. The bazaar is full of clouds, the traffic is busy, and the gorgeous buildings that combine the east and the west are scattered, which makes people not fail to be amazed.
If it weren't for knowing that the empire was terminally ill. Zhang Chai would not have believed that a country with such a prosperous scenery would eventually perish.
Although the streets of the imperial capital are very spacious, the people on the streets are really countless, and the carriages and crowds are crowded together, as if they are an impermeable wall, overwhelming people.
"Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”
The Imperial soldiers had no choice but to shout to clear the way for Zhang, while the officers of the military department walked in front to lead the way. From time to time, Zhang Chai introduced the style of the imperial capital.
Zhang Chai secretly wrote down all the information such as the place names of these streets and alleys, which was very helpful for him to understand the imperial capital.
The official of the military department said that his mouth was dry, and his stomach was a little hungry, so he sneered and said: "Your Excellency, it is better for your subordinates to be the host, please go to Zhenyulou to enjoy a meal!" It is the top restaurant in the imperial capital, and the delicious food is endless! ”
"Lead the way." Zhang Chai didn't shirk it, after all, he hadn't eaten for a day.
Under the leadership of the officials of the Ministry of War, Zhang chased to the outside of a delicate attic full of Japanese style, which was what the officials of the Ministry of War called the Treasure Tower.
Before entering the Zhenyu Building, Zhang Chai smelled an intoxicating aroma mixed with the aroma of food, which shows that the environment of the Zhenyu Building is quite elegant.
At the entrance of the Zhenyu Tower, a group of beautiful girls in kimonos looked curiously at Zhang Chai, who was surrounded by imperial soldiers, and after being amazed, they knelt down and said, "Welcome!" ”
Zhang Chai strode across the threshold, raised his eyes and scanned the environment inside the building, which was full of richly dressed nobles dining, obviously this place was not something that ordinary civilians could afford.
"Messenger, please come inside!" The officer of the military department took Zhang Cha to a quiet seat by the window.
Zhang Chai knelt on the tatami mat uncomfortably, took the sake handed by the waitress, took a sip, and immediately felt a sweet and sour rice flavor, which was undoubtedly a first-class wine.
"Serve all the delicacies here! This is the noble person beside His Majesty the Emperor and the ministers! Don't be lazy! Otherwise...... Hum! When the time comes, you will be good-looking! The military officials raised their hands and shouted, as if they had taken the treasure building as their own backyard.
Zhang Chai didn't like this kind of flamboyant behavior, but he didn't want to spoil the atmosphere either, he turned his head sideways, absentmindedly looking out through the window lattice at the prosperous street scene.
Boom!
And when the military department official shouted to order food, the wooden ceiling above his head suddenly cracked, and a slender black shadow fell from above, and quickly pounced on the military department official with a thick murderous aura.
The shock came so quickly that the officers of the military department couldn't react at all, and could only watch as the sharp blade of the black shadow instantly swung towards their throats.
When!
There was a piercing crash, and before the black shadow swung its blade stabbed the military officer, a golden sword stabbed horizontally, steadily blocking the blade.
Zhang Chai kicked away the military officer, turned his hand and waved the golden sword in his hand to pick up the blade, and at this moment he saw the face of the black shadow clearly.
This is a beautiful girl in a black dress with black hair and red eyes, with a smart posture, holding a bright red knife with a handle in her hands, her indifferent pretty face is full of deep killing intent, and the whole person is like a sharp sword out of the sheath, making it impossible to ignore her existence.
Red pupils!
Zhang Chai read the name of the beautiful girl in the black dress in his heart. (To be continued.) )
