Chapter Forty-Eight: The Emperor is Furious
Qianniuwei, formerly known as Qianniuwei, is only six hundred, and it is not at all conspicuous in the Tang Army.
They were in charge of the emperor, empress, and prince's bodyguards, attendants, and guard of honor.
Most of these people were born in the Qinfu, the Left and Right Xun Mansions, and the Left and Right Yi Mansions", and these five prefectures are collectively called the "Five Mansions".
The nature of the Five Prefectures is equivalent to that of the Zhichong Mansion, except that the soldiers of the Five Prefectures are not "ordinary soldiers", but are composed of the children of the emperor's relatives, former subordinates of the lords, and officials of the fifth rank or above in the imperial court.
Li Yuan, the ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, served as a thousand cattle for his uncle-in-law Emperor Wen of Sui, and Li Mi of Wagangzhai also served as a thousand cows for the crown prince Yang Yong's Donggong Thousand Cows.
Therefore, with such a thousand cows, Yin Erhu can fight eight alone.
The reason why he is running fast now is that the left and right Qianniuwei are different, they are now under the jurisdiction of the queen, and they are collectively called Qianniuwei.
The army of the Tang Jingshi is generally divided into two ya, the north is the emperor's army, also called the imperial forest, and the south ya, except for the left and right thousand cow guards, and the left and right prison guards, the remaining twelve guards, and the remaining twelve guards are the superior management units of Zhichong Mansion.
Whether it is the Northern Ya or the Southern Ya, it is not something that the queen can touch, after all, Li Zhi is now extremely sensitive to military power, and whoever touches it will die.
However, there are only more than 600 people on the left and right Qianniuwei, and most of them are useless decorations and solve the problem of officials' children entering the ranks.
Therefore, when the queen asked to manage these honor guards and guards, Li Zhi agreed without paying attention.
The biggest reason why Yin Erhu ran so fast with the monkey on his back was that today's Qianniuwei was completely different from the previous Qianniuwei.
In the past, Yin Erhu could fight eight by himself, since the queen took over Qianniuwei and spent six years reorganizing Qianniuwei, Yin Erhu felt that he could probably defeat a Qianniuwei if he wore armor, if it was two, he would need to risk his life to fight to the death, if there were three Qianniuwei, Yin Erhu could support half a pillar of incense for a long time, and then, it was the end of being divided by Qianniuwei.
The weapon used by the Thousand Cow Guards is the Thousand Cow Knife, which is said to be able to kill a thousand cows without the blade being curled.
Although Yin Erhu's horizontal knife came from the hands of a clever craftsman in the Western Regions, and was made of Uzi steel, he was asked to use this horizontal knife to face Qianniuwei, who was wearing armor and didn't take his life seriously at all, Yin Erhu still didn't do it.
Therefore, Yin Erhu ran faster than the galloping horse!
Xue Changfeng was not slow to run, originally he thought that Yin Erhu would be stupid to save Zhong Kui, but he didn't expect that this guy is now a real good man.
After running out for three miles in one breath, he saw a thatched pavilion in the mountain stream, Yin Erhu stopped, entered the pavilion, put the monkey on the stone table, and motioned to Xue Changfeng to help treat the monkey, and he stood on the side of the road and looked back anxiously. He was not at ease that the rest of the brothers had not returned.
Fortunately, when the count reached six, the last subordinate ran back, and Yin Erhu breathed a sigh of relief.
Being able to run out of the encirclement formed by fifty thousand cow guards, Yin Erhu was faintly proud.
"What are you happy about, this time we are not the target of others, so we can run out."
Xue Changfeng had already helped the monkey sawed off the pole of the crossbow arrow, and threw it on the ground with a bang.
Smoothly pulling the arrow shaft out of the monkey's body, Yin Erhu picked up the arrow and sniffed it, put it in front of the torch to take a look, and said to Xue Changfeng: "Fortunately, it is not a poison-feeding arrow." ”
Xue Changfeng said: "Hurry up and clean up, we have to run soon, the distance of three miles is not enough, and there is only one road, and there are six forks in the road five miles away, so it can be considered stable when we get there." ”
Yin Erhu said with a smile: "As long as you don't meet Qianniuwei and others, Lao Tzu doesn't care, even if it is thousands of troops and horses, Lao Tzu dares to rush." ”
Xue Changfeng looked at Yin Erhu, who liked to brag in front of him, with disdain, and before he could speak, he saw a group of white-clothed people wearing masks coming out of the thatched pavilion, like ghosts, silently.
Yin Erhu coughed dryly and said: "Brothers, let's continue to hurry, we can't return to Luoyang before dawn, the shopkeeper is still waiting for us to work." ”
After that, he will take the unconscious monkey on his back first, and he will go around from the left side and leave this land of right and wrong.
The men in white separated a group of people to block their way.
Seeing that he couldn't get past it, Yin Erhu was about to stand up and speak, but he didn't expect Xue Changfeng to stand up first, and looked at the white-clothed man opposite: "We are His Royal Highness King Lu's people, please don't misunderstand." ”
The man in white didn't say a word, and looked at Xue Changfeng coldly, but their behavior of drawing their knives in unison had already shown that they didn't intend to let Yin Erhu and his party go.
Xue Changfeng said angrily: "A group of dogs from Silla also dare to block the way of grandfathers, be careful that Your Highness my family is angry and will break your corpses into thousands of pieces." ”
The Silla people who didn't speak seemed to have become even more angry, and several people had already crossed the line and were about to attack Xue Changfeng.
Although Xue Changfeng's body was wrapped in sackcloth, his body stood straight, and he looked at a few Silla Hualang who came over and said: "With the queen supporting you, you can kill us, it is estimated that His Highness has nothing to say, but if we die, don't let His Highness find out the traces of your Silla people, once discovered, you know what the consequences are."
Lao Tzu's nine lives here, if you can't exchange your nine hundred, nine thousand lives, Lao Tzu and your surname. ”
The Hua Lang disciple who stepped forward seemed to be frightened by these words, stopped and looked at the side, and immediately, a masked woman came out from there, only to hear her say in a hoarse voice: "Are you worthy of His Royal Highness King Lu offending the queen?" ”
Xue Changfeng said: "We are the subordinates of Zhou Guogong, if you are a person who understands, you should know the relationship between our Guogong and His Royal Highness King Lu." ”
The woman said softly: "Helan Minzhi? ”
Xue Changfeng said: "Exactly." ”
The woman said again: "Does His Royal Highness King Lu know?" ”
Xue Changfeng said proudly: "I didn't know before, but now King Lu and my family get along day and night, how can I not know the reason." ”
I don't know what the woman on the other side thinks, so I didn't speak again, waved my hand, and left the thatched pavilion with Hua Langtu.
Looking at the Hualang disciples who disappeared on the path, Yin Erhu said admiringly: "It's still Lao Xue, you are smart." ”
Xue Changfeng shook his head indifferently and said, "After all, I didn't deceive the past, it was better to start fighting directly just now." ”
Sending a scout casually, Yin Erhu said, "Isn't it good?" ”
Xue Changfeng sighed and said: "How many people in this world know that Helan Minzhi and His Royal Highness King Lu are compatriots of the same mother, and they have leaked a boss's secret to the other party in vain." ”
Yin Erhu said ignorantly: "You said that Helan Minzhi and His Royal Highness King Lu are compatriots of the same mother, is it true?" Helan Minzhi's grandfather has a leg with the queen?
Aren't you talking nonsense? ”
Xue Changfeng smiled: "That's right, it's really nonsense, let's go, leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible." ”
Yin Erhu shook his head and said, "You take your brothers back first, and I'll go back and take a look, so that the lord doesn't know the true appearance of Qi Xiaguan's affairs." ”
Xue Changfeng shook his head and said: "I always feel that something is wrong, it's better to leave early, it's easy to lose your life if you continue to stay here." ”
Yin Erhu said with a smile: "I've already encountered two sets of dangers, I don't believe that I will be so unlucky today, anyone can encounter it." ”
As soon as Yin Erhu's words fell, there was a terrible night owl cry in the woods in front of him, and before the scream stopped, Yin Erhu heard a dense sound of crossbow arrows being fired, Xue Changfeng rushed into the woods bravely without saying a word, and after a while, he ran out of the woods with a person on his back, and without saying a word, he went into the dense woods on the opposite side.
Yin Erhu was naturally not to be left behind, and when he saw that Xue Changfeng had rescued his own people, he followed him into the dense woods.
"Who the hell is it, when you hear a bird's call, you will greet with a crossbow arrow, this is fucking unreasonable......"
Zuo Chun, who was wearing heavy armor, walked over from the path, looked at the empty thatched pavilion, picked up a severed steel crossbow arrow from the ground, and glanced at the deputy Han Daodao: "There are Qianniuwei, change the armor-piercing arrow." ”
Han Tong sneered and said, "Vulnerable." ”
Zuo Chun looked at the direction of Yin Erhu and their escape and said: "Pass the order, within three miles of Qixiaguan, and leave no living mouth." ”
Xue Changfeng and Yin Erhu each carried an injured person on their backs, running faster than the galloping horse.
This time, Yin Erhu kept his mouth shut, he always felt that the dangers encountered by his group of people one after another had something to do with his broken mouth.
Seeing that a river suddenly opened up in front of him, Xue Changfeng didn't even mean to hesitate, and jumped into the river with people on his back.
Yin Erhu and his partners didn't think about it, and followed Xue Changfeng into the river, the river was not wide or deep, but the water was turbulent, and everyone fell into the water, and they were washed out by the current ten zhang away.
In Shangyang Palace, singing and dancing were leveled, Li Zhi and Wu Mei invited to drink, and the two of them picked up the wine bottle at the same time and drank the grapes inside.
Wu Mei gently touched the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Why is Your Majesty so polite today?" ”
Li Zhi smiled: "It's not strange to say that many people are polite, and the same is true for you and me." ”
Wu Mei shook her head and said: "Your Majesty used to be such a polite person, and you must ask for something when you are courteous, but I don't know what Your Majesty is asking for?" ”
Li Zhi said with a smile: "What the queen said is not right, the thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace, and the reason why I invite you to drink is just to invite you to drink, and the queen doesn't have to worry about it." ”
Wu Mei frowned and said: "Your Majesty, you can know that Zhang Guo is not dead, and the scene outside the imperial city is just a trick."
If His Majesty sees Zhang Guo again, don't be surprised. ”
When Li Zhi heard this, he stood up with a bang, and roared angrily outside the dark Shangyang Palace: "Zuo Chun, are you a dead man?" Do you want me to tell you the truth of the king's humiliation and death? ”
Immediately, there was a thunderous response from outside the hall, Wu Mei frowned, looked at the emperor and said, "What does Your Majesty want?" ”
Li Zhi said angrily: "Ping Yiping is the anger in my heart. ”
