Imperial Capital Chapter 182 Go out of the city to save Xiao Qi
Although it can be full of wisdom, it is not easy to use and does not use the world as a chess piece.
The Holy Sect Master, the master who brought Liu Xin up the mountain, this is the character he wants to emulate.
It can be said that the Holy Sect Sect Master still protects Liu Xin very well......
Just before entering the city gate, Liu Xin was suddenly attracted by something on the side of the official road.
"Little Seven ......"
Liu Xin subconsciously muttered in a low voice.
Luo Bei, who was beside him, faintly heard Liu Xin's murmur, leaned on him strangely, and asked:
"What's wrong with you?"
"Hmmm! It's fine, just remembered something. ”
"Me too, I really want to return to the county king as soon as possible.
There aren't many guards around the county king, in case I mean in case the emperor is breached.
I'll have to protect my lord from here. ”
"Don't say this kind of thing, it's impossible for the emperor to break!"
Huangfu Rongjiang didn't know when Qu Ma came to the two of them.
With unkindness in his eyes, he looked at Luo Bei.
In his eyes, Luo Bei was just the commander of the guard of the county king.
His vision is smaller, which is understandable.
But he couldn't let Luo Bei take Liu Xin to ruin.
"Brother Liu, the Imperial Capital City is not afraid of the 100,000 rebels in this area at all.
And this so-called rebel bandit has just been seen by everyone.
If the Imperial Capital City can also be destroyed with such combat effectiveness, then how can the Imperial Capital City resist the Northern Barbarians in the past hundred years! ”
Huangfu Rongjiang spoke with a strong sense of confidence.
"But in the past half a year, Beiban has never come to the imperial capital at all.
What really intercepted the Northern Barbarians were the soldiers of the pass over there, and the seemingly dilapidated border fortresses. ”
Luo Bei retorted that the fief of the king of Yongzhou County was at the border pass.
Yongzhou Wei is also an army that guards the border passes.
And Robben aspires to be the commander of this army.
In his heart, the Imperial Capital City may have lost its original defensive power in the peace and comfort of the first half of the year.
"I know your ambitions.
Yongzhou Wei is indeed good, but the forbidden army and pro-army in the imperial capital are not vegetarians! ”
Huangfu Rongjiang didn't say much, as a general, everything must be based on facts.
When he returned to the imperial capital, he would ask his father to let him lead his troops into battle.
Huangfu Rongjiang is the commander of Yu Linwei, and he may have the opportunity to go out of the city to fight.
As for Luo Bei, since he wants to protect his Yongzhou County King, let him guard it.
As long as you can go to the battlefield and kill the enemy.
Huangfu Rongjiang was able to slap Luo Bei's face with a real record.
Luo Bei also knew Huangfu Rongjiang's plans.
He didn't have a fighting heart in his heart.
But the fight he wanted was never to fight against the people of his own people.
What he wants to kill is the grass barbarians of the Northern Barbarians.
Only by killing those people is worthy of his ancestors.
His entire family and even his ancestors stayed on the battlefield, and it was precisely because of this that he grew up in the palace of Yongzhou County.
And the father of the king of Yongzhou County, who was also a fierce general, died young because the injuries left by the battle with the Northern Barbarians were too serious.
Having lost the protection of his father since he was a child, the king of Yongzhou County will seem a little timid.
And Luo Bei, who thinks he is the eldest brother of the king of Yongzhou County, has always wanted to make a contribution to the king of Yongzhou County.
However, he naturally would not say these words to Huangfu Rongjiang.
The two were fighting a cold war like this, and Liu Xin was sandwiched between the two and couldn't say anything.
And he has his own things on his mind.
Xiao Qi has come to the vicinity of the imperial capital.
And the signal left for him was a distress signal.
He had to learn from Senior Brother Cheng about the specific situation outside the imperial capital as soon as possible.
He's going to save Xiao Qi!
Soon they came to the imperial capital, and everyone went back to their own homes and looked for their own mothers.
Liu Xin returned directly to Liufu, and it was already evening at this time.
The outer city of the imperial capital was a little flustered, but on the whole, these riots were brought about by the refugees outside.
The people of the outer city seemed very calm.
Regarding this, Liu Xin felt that it was very likely that he was influenced by the inner city.
Because the inner city seems to be completely untouched by the outside world.
The four flower buildings are still full of guests and friends, laughing and laughing.
Before night really falls, the lights are already lit up, rendering the entire interior of the building like a prosperous beauty.
And this is actually a portrayal of the hearts of those big people in the imperial capital.
They need to reassure the people of the city through their own actions.
And they don't need to do much, as long as they maintain their extravagant life, and even more extravagant than before, so that the people's hearts will be more stable.
I have to say that the effect of such actions is very good.
At least Liu Xin walked on that floor of the street.
You can even hear the laughter of the host and guests behind the walled courtyard.
A mother's harsh and earnest teachings to her children.
All of this was in stark contrast to the faces of the refugees he had seen outside the city.
Liu Xin's heart was complicated, but he didn't have time to think about it now.
He returned to the Liufu, and his aunt naturally came out to meet him.
He recounted some of his concerns.
Now Liu Xin has become an official in Jinyi Wei, and there are even people who have come to act as a matchmaker for his aunt.
It's just that the aunt rejected all those matchmakers.
Although she is not very old now and has never given birth, with Liu Xin's current identity, she can definitely find a good match.
And Liu Xin doesn't seem to care about this kind of thing.
But the aunt never let go.
After appeasing his aunt, Liu Xin came to the courtyard of Senior Brother Cheng.
From his aunt, Liu Xin learned that Senior Brother Cheng had just returned.
Auntie has her own intelligence channels, as Liu Xin's aunt, she only needs to send her maid to Jinyiwei to inquire around, and she can get a lot of news.
This is also the main reason why she was visited by countless matchmakers.
Even these days, when she went back to her parents' house, she regained her waist.
Once upon a time, when her husband Lao Liu Baihu died, his mother's family did not come to the funeral.
Although my aunt is not a person who understands righteousness, she can always make the right choice.
Liu Xin came to Senior Brother Cheng's courtyard.
Senior Brother Cheng no longer needs to go to Jinyiwei to be on duty, but has arranged a study in his courtyard and put a lot of books.
He shut himself in his study all day.
Let the aunt think that this housekeeper uncle has changed his temperament and really wants to be a literati.
Of course, Auntie knew that Steward Cheng was not as ordinary as he seemed.
At least he wasn't a real butler, nor was he a real brocade guard.
In the past, his husband's attitude towards Senior Brother Cheng was not quite right, and it was not the attitude towards his subordinates at all.
And now Liu Xin has even more respect for Senior Brother Cheng.
It's still the undisguised kind.
Therefore, no matter what Senior Brother Cheng does in the house, she will not care.
"Senior Brother Cheng! I am back! ”
Liu Xin opened the door directly and entered Senior Brother Cheng's study.
Senior Brother Cheng was looking at something carefully behind the bookcase at this time.
He was not surprised by Liu Xin's return.
"When I came back, I knew you would come back first.
And I know what you're most likely to ask. ”
Senior Brother Cheng looked up at Liu Xin, holding a note in his hand and handing it out.
Liu Xin didn't say a word, stepped forward to take the note, opened it and saw that it was indeed written about Xiao Qi.
"He actually took five hundred people with him, and he became the leader of this mountain bandit!"
Liu Xin looked at the information on the note in surprise, but he didn't expect that he had been following his ass and calling his senior brother to pester him, so that his little junior brother who protected him would be able to take charge on his own.
"Of course, he is an inner disciple of my Holy Sect.
Isn't it very normal to have such abilities? ”
Senior Brother Cheng's expression and tone made people feel that what he said was right.
"And you take a closer look at the end."
After being reminded by the senior brother in the process, Liu Xin set his eyes on the end of the note.
There are two nicknames written on it.
"Scar, black knife?"
Liu Xin didn't quite understand the meaning of these two nicknames.
"Scar Ye, formerly known as Liu Biao, is a big mountain bandit in Taihang Mountain.
He is now in his sixties.
As early as a few years ago, he sealed the knife, washed his hands and left Taihang Mountain.
However, he once had thousands of mountain bandits in his hands.
Even those heroes in Liangshan have to call him Scar Master.
It is said that this nickname of his comes from his battle with a high-grade Dacheng realm martial artist.
Of course, it doesn't mean that he has the combat power of the top-grade Dacheng realm.
It's that he was able to escape from the other party's hands, although he left an obvious scar, but after all, he was able to escape, which is enough to show his strength! ”
After listening to Senior Brother Cheng's words, Liu Xin's face showed obvious shock.
He was not shocked by the strength of this scar master, but shocked that such a character had become Xiao Qi's subordinate.
But I can't say that completely.
Because on the note, the name Scar Ye is followed by a line of small words:
Suspected second-in-command of the team.
Thinking of Xiao Qi's character of jumping out of the way, Liu Xin really couldn't figure out how he could bring such a big master under his hands.
And since this Scar Master is so strong, what kind of strong man is the black knife that can be placed side by side with him?
Liu Xin immediately raised his head, his eyes like Senior Brother Cheng.
Senior Brother Cheng immediately understood what Liu Xin meant, he showed a smile and said:
"If Scar Ye is an old-timer in the mountain bandit world.
Then this black knife is the man of the day in the mountain bandit world.
He has no mountains, no forces of his own, no men of his own.
One person has a black knife, but he does something that ninety percent of mountain bandits can't do.
He once snatched a grain of rations guarded by 100 officers and soldiers alone.
After he killed these 100 people, he only took five buckets of rice.
And what made him famous in the mountain bandit world, and even in the rivers and lakes, was because he successfully robbed the dart of a red-sleeved dart master in the Yuanwei Dart Bureau.
You should be clear about the gold content in this. ”
Liu Xin nodded subconsciously.
With the cultivation of single four, if you want to press darts, he is at most the level of a black-sleeved dart master.
And the Red Sleeve Dart Master is a higher level of existence.
It also shows that the strength of this black knife is definitely able to crush Shan Si!
"How could such a character become Xiao Qi's subordinate?"
The name of the black knife is not followed by the word suspicious, but ......
Little Seven Affiliate!
In other words, according to the information detected by the secret investigation team, the black knife has become Xiao Qi's subordinate.
"The Xiao Qi in your mouth is now a Dacheng Realm martial artist.
You boys are growing faster than the other. ”
Hearing Senior Brother Cheng's words, Liu Xin's eyes were full of surprise.
He didn't expect Xiao Qi to have broken through.
They have seven brothers, Xiao Qi is the youngest, according to everyone's expectations, Xiao Qi wants to break through, and he still needs an opportunity.
But he is too good at doing anything, and when he may encounter dangerous things, he hides behind Liu Xin.
This also led to his lack of experience and his inability to break through.
In fact, his cultivation talent is the best among his senior brothers.
The innate strange vein [spirit vein] made his cultivation speed far surpass that of others.
"Sure enough, it's the grinding outside that makes people grow up quickly."
Liu Xin sighed, he may have really delayed Xiao Qi before.
"How is Xiao Qi's situation now?"
Liu Xin asked.
"They are now hiding in a mountain range forty miles north of the imperial capital, but there should be no problem.
But the imperial military must have noticed them.
But because there are only 500 people, they don't really care yet.
However, if the rebels are almost solved by the imperial court, Xiao Qi and they will be purged sooner or later.
It's really that time. You can't help much.
Because you are not from the military after all.
Jinyiwei's identity is not easy to use in the military. ”
Liu Xin nodded, what he was most worried about was such a situation.
"What is the situation outside the Imperial Capital?
How could there be 100,000 rebels all of a sudden? ”
Liu Xin's most puzzling thing is where these 100,000 rebels jumped out.
If there were such a large number of rebels, it was impossible for the imperial court not to be aware of it.
So he vaguely thought that there must be people at the top of the court secretly doing something about this matter.
"Judging by your expression, I guessed something.
I'm going to tell you directly what I've come up with in the past few days.
Even the covert investigation team didn't notice the assembly of this 100,000-strong rebel group at first.
Because most of them are really refugees. ”
After a pause, a touch of helplessness appeared in Senior Brother Cheng's eyes.
"As you know, countless parts of the country have suffered disasters this year.
The floods and locust plagues alone are comparable to the previous three years combined.
Millions of people in the land of Zhengyang are suffering greatly.
Countless refugees have appeared on the land.
Some affluent places may still be able to hold on.
But in some parts of the north, countless refugees have begun to change their children.
All of this information was brought to my desk through the Covert Investigation Team.
All I see are some numbers. ”
Senior Brother Cheng couldn't help but pause, lowered his head and sighed.
"This gathering of rebels is, to put it bluntly, a counterattack by Liangshan.
The imperial court was ready to start its move on Liangshan.
And Liang Shan, with the help of some people, facilitated this operation.
Rather than saying that this is a war against the imperial capital,
It is better to say that this is Liang Shan's second show of his strength to the imperial court.
100,000 rebel bandits, most of whom are mountain bandits gathered in Liangshan, leading some of the bewitched refugees. ”
"How was Yangsan able to gather so many refugees?
There is a man on Liangshan who claims to be Zhiduoxing, but his ability is not enough to gather so many refugees.
Although his wit is not bad, he can't stand the others on Liangshan from pulling him back.
How could a group of big bosses have such ability! ”
"You're right, there are others who deceive the people.
White Lotus Sect! ”
"White Lotus Sect!"
Almost at the same time, Liu Xin and Senior Brother Cheng said these three words in unison.
"Looks like you've thought of it too."
Senior Brother Cheng was once again impressed by Liu Xin's wit.
"This is because I know that the three missionaries of the White Lotus Sect have gathered in the imperial capital.
If it weren't for the big things they were trying to do, they wouldn't have been able to place such a strong force in the imperial capital. ”
"Yes, exactly.
The White Lotus Sect also dispatched a lot of people this time.
But I don't think their purpose is definitely not just to help Yangsan.
Perhaps Liang Shan paid some price in order to let the White Lotus Sect make a move.
But the White Lotus Sect definitely has another purpose.
Some of our spies in the Imperial Capital have noticed some rumors.
However, the White Lotus Sect's operation was extremely secretive.
And there are people behind them to help them and cover them up, so it will take a little time to find out.
My focus is here for the past two days. ”
"This can't be done, I have to find a way to rescue Xiao Qi and them.
I have to get out of town. ”
"I can't help you with going out of town.
But I have an idea.
Although the city is now stable, many veterans of the military have already proposed to let them lead the forbidden army or the pro-army out of the city to kill the enemy.
But the emperor has always pressed them not to make a move.
Even Qin Guogong and Wu Guogong were on the same front as the emperor.
This is enough to show that these old foxes have long had a plan among themselves.
It is absolutely impossible to get out of the city and surrender the bandits now, unless the emperor relents.
But you have a reason to get out of town. ”
"What reason?"
Liu Xin didn't expect that he couldn't think of any clue about the method.
Listening to Senior Brother Cheng's meaning, he seems to have a solution.
"Don't forget who you are!"
Senior Brother Cheng gave Liu Xin a meaningful smile.
Liu Xin seemed to have grasped something.
"You mean the identity of the Jinyiwei?"
"That's right."
Senior Brother Cheng nodded and continued:
"Jin Yiwei is responsible for investigating for the emperor.
If you bring up that you think that this time of bandits outside the city is strange, as a matter of Jinyi Wei, you have enough reasons to go out of the city to investigate.
And because of the chaos outside, there will definitely be a military horse to guard you.
After all, Jinyiwei is not an army, and the combat effectiveness on the battlefield is not worth mentioning. ”
"Senior Brother Cheng, what you said earlier makes sense.
But the last sentence, I beg to differ.
My brocade guards are all good. ”
"But are you willing to let them die?
Guo Yong and the others, although they have been kept in the dark, are also loyal to do things for you.
With your temperament, would you be willing to let them go to this sea of swords? ”
Liu Xin was silent for a moment, he had already been thoroughly explored by Senior Brother Cheng.
Senior Brother Cheng is worthy of being a treacherous and cunning.
