41. Kill chickens and make an example of monkeys

"Who is not convinced?"

The sound was like thunder, and it suddenly exploded.

There was silence in the field.

Lin Mang's expression was cold, and there was a hint of evil in his body.

Regardless of why this Lord of Thousand Households ordered him to be the leader.

But he knows one thing, even if he refuses it today, these people will be dissatisfied with themselves in their hearts.

On the way afterward, he didn't want any more bullshit, and he didn't want to be subservient to others.

In this case, it is better to take this position directly, not to mention, as the leader, the final merit will inevitably be more than that of ordinary people.

Lin Mang looked at everyone and said coldly: "If you are not convinced, you can stand up, and Lin is willing to take it." ”

Most of the people present were general flags and small flags, so he naturally didn't have to be polite.

Yao Tingquan stood aside, looking at Lin Mang with interest, with a hint of appreciation in his expression.

In these thousand households, there is nothing he doesn't know, and even the entire Dongchang City is well known to him.

As a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, if he didn't even have this ability, then he should really take the blame and resign.

Of course, the reason why he is so concerned is more because of Chen Tiankui's letter.

The guy mentioned this son many times in the letter, and he did not shy away from valuing it, and this position was also mentioned by him in the letter.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here today, just to see this young man who can be valued by Chen Tiankui.

When I saw it today, it was indeed a bit domineering and decisive.

The faces of everyone in the audience were gloomy, and their eyes were even more unkind.

Although the official position is the same, let such a young junior shout in front of him, if it weren't for Lin Mang's reputation now, which made them quite jealous, they would have taken action at this moment.

At this moment, the young man in the crowd who had previously spoken stood up.

Yang Qingzhi looked at Yao Tingquan of Qianhu and said in a deep voice: "My lord, the lower officials have the courage to ask Lin Zongqi for advice." ”

Yao Tingquan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at Yang Qingzhi coldly.

This person naturally knows that the general banner of the 100 households in Beicheng is the nephew of Yang Hongnian, the current prefect.

The 100 households in Beicheng will be transferred in one year, and the position of 100 households is about to become vacant.

Now I don't know how many people are staring at this position, Yang Hongnian was looking around and transferred this nephew to Beicheng, just for the seat of this hundred households.

Lin Mang had been quietly paying attention to Yao Tingquan's expression, and after catching a glimpse of the coldness in his eyes, he smiled imperceptibly.

Yao Tingquan turned his head to look at Lin Mang, and said lightly: "Lin Mang, since this is the case, you can have a competition with Yang Zongqi." ”

"Remember, just point to the end, don't hurt your life."

Lin Mang smiled slightly: "Obey." ”

The crowd quickly set aside a venue for the two.

Yang Qingzhi looked at Lin Mang coldly, pulled out the embroidered spring knife, and said coldly: "Draw the knife." ”

He had received a letter, and yesterday Lin Mang actually refused his cousin's invitation.

Today's move, firstly, is to teach this person a lesson that he does not know what to do, and secondly, he really wants to take the position of the person in charge of this mission.

In one year, the hundred households in Beicheng will be transferred, and there are many people staring at this position, even if there is an uncle to operate, he does not dare to guarantee that it will be foolproof, so he must accumulate enough merits.

As for this person, it can only be a stepping stone on his way forward.

It's a pity that you can't kill him!

At this time, Lin Mang was smiling, and with his delicate face, he looked very sunny.

But the next moment, it was as cold as ice.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, there was a long roar of gold and iron.

Fast!

A flash of extremely fast sword light flew by.

Before everyone could see it clearly, Lin Mang had already put the knife into the sheath, and a few drops of blood were dripping on the ground.

Almost instantly, Yang Qingzhi let out a miserable scream, and the right arm holding the knife was thrown out, and blood sprayed.

Yang Qingzhi stretched out his hand and counted the dots on the broken arm, his face was full of anger, but there was a trace of deep fear in the depths of his eyes.

Lin Mang's expression was indifferent, he looked around at everyone, and said coldly: "Does anyone else want to compete?" ”

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and they were even more frightened.

I heard that Yang Qingzhi had already advanced to the late congenital stage, but he had never received a knife?

looked subconsciously at Yao Tingquan of Qianhu on the side, but found that the Lord of Qianhu was laughing at this time.

At this moment, everyone realized why Lin Mang was handpicked by Lord Qianhu.

Shady!

It's absolutely shady!

looked at Yang Qingzhi not far away, and there was a hint of pity in his expression.

If you have a broken arm, even if you can keep the position of the general flag, you will not be able to win a hundred households in the future.

Yao Tingquan waved his hand, and the two brocade guards behind him immediately left with Yang Qingzhi.

Yao Tingquan said in a deep voice: "In this case, Lin Mang will be fully responsible for this escort mission. ”

Everyone bowed their hands and said, "Yes!" ”

Yao Tingquan reached out and took a picture album from the hands of his subordinates behind him and handed it to Lin Mang.

"This is the list of all the show girls and portraits sent to the capital this time, a total of twenty-four, no mistakes."

Lin Mang hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials will be escorted into Beijing safely." ”

"Hmm." Yao Tingquan bowed slightly, suddenly reached out and patted Lin Mang's shoulder, and advised: "You should still put your own life first." ”

After speaking, he led the people behind him to turn around and leave.

Lin Mang froze in place.

They must be meeting for the first time, right?

But the attitude of this master of a thousand households makes people a little uncertain.

Everyone quietly observed, and at this moment, they became more and more sure that Lin Mang must have something to do with Lord Qianhu.

They haven't heard of any general banner who can be treated like this.

Lin Mang thought about it for a long time, but still couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore.

Lin Mang turned to look at everyone and said directly: "Everyone, let's go!" ”

Everyone immediately responded one after another, and their attitudes were much more respectful.

……

The gate of the Thousand Households slowly opened, and the twenty-four horsemen rode out of the horse and ran in the direction of the gate of the East City.

In addition to the hundreds of households sent from all over the country, there are also people from hundreds of households in the city and thousands of households, among which the lowest strength is in the day after tomorrow.

In addition, Dongchang Mansion even sent an elite army to accompany them, with about 100 people, but they were already waiting at the city gate.

Moments later,

"Phew~"

Lin Mang tugged on the reins, stopped his horse, and looked at the six carriages parked at the gate of the city.

Each of the six carriages was equipped with four fine horses, flanked by sergeants, and dressed as attendants.

As for the convoy of Izumo Province, it was already waiting a mile outside the city.

A sergeant in black armor rode over on a horse, hugged his fists and said, "Centurion Tang Chong, I've seen my lord!" ”

Lin Mang also replied with a salute and said, "Lord Tang, I am fully responsible for this escort mission, and I hope Lord Tang can cooperate on the next journey." ”

There are some things that he still likes to say on the bright side.

Tang Chong said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, just give orders!" ”

Lin Mang showed a smile on his face, bowed his head slightly, raised his horsewhip, and said, "Let's go!" ”
