"Who are you! What are you doing here? A man from the indigenous tribe at the head stared cautiously at Yang Bing and the others, not only at the people, but also at the rabbit in Yang Bing's hand.

Yang Bing looked the other party up and down, the man was wearing a suit made of animal skin, with a tall figure, a hunting knife pinned to his waist, and a bow almost as tall as a man on his back.

"We are refugees on the run, just catching a few rabbits to fill our stomachs, and nothing else." Yang Bing took out a rabbit and slowly put it on the ground: "This rabbit should be given to you." ”

Yang Bing said and stepped back cautiously, and the people behind him also walked cautiously towards the back, Yang Bing didn't want to conflict with the other party, after all, he was a refugee on his side, and he would definitely suffer once he started.

The indigenous man picked up the rabbit on the ground suspiciously: "Stop! After speaking, he threw the rabbit back at Yang Bing's feet.

Then he pulled out the hunting knife on his waist: "We Keren never accept handouts!" After speaking, the man rushed towards Yang Bing with a hunting knife in hand.

"Damn, you're sick!" Yang Bing dodged, dodged the chopping machete, and pulled out the three-edged thorn from his waist.

At this moment, at the foot of the mountain, Lin Yan was still waiting for Yang Bing's news in the checkpoint, and a soldier came over to report: "Report to the general, the people we sent into the mountain were beaten back by the natives in the mountain, and many brothers were injured. ”

Lin Yanyi frowned: "A group of natives, defeated a group of well-armed soldiers, are you a group of waste!" ”

The soldier replied in a panic: "General Hui, those natives are familiar with the terrain in the mountains, and the bows and arrows in their hands are very powerful. ”

"Humph! If you can't do things well, don't make excuses, do you think you just make up an excuse, I don't have to let you find it, the biggest bow and arrow made by the strongest army of the Ming Dynasty can only shoot more than a hundred steps, and if you want to shoot through the people wearing armor, you can't do it at all, aren't the craftsmen of the Ming Dynasty as good as a group of natives! Lin Yan naturally didn't believe in the soldiers' excuses.

The soldier immediately knelt on the ground: "General, the subordinates really don't dare to lie, if the general doesn't believe it, you can take a look at the corpses of the brothers." ”

Lin Yan turned around and looked coldly at the soldier kneeling on the ground: "You'd better tell the truth!" ”

"It's true!"

Later, under the leadership of the soldiers, Lin Yan saw the two poor soldiers who were shot through by an arrow feather.

Lin Yan walked over to take a closer look, only to see that the arrow was much longer than the ordinary arrow, and the texture was harder, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

But after thinking about it, Lin Yande had a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Everyone, follow me into the mountains!" Lin Yan did not hesitate, and rode on a war horse to lead a team of elite soldiers towards the deep mountains.

After Lin Yan saw that this arrow could really shoot through two people, he thought about taking it for himself, after all, such a powerful bow and arrow could not be made even by the most powerful craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty, Lin Yan wanted to get this method of making bows and arrows.

In the East Palace, the crown prince Zhu Di looked at the book in his hand, and there was a person kneeling in front of him, who was holding a petition letter in his hand, and the expression on his face was very firm.

The second prince watched from the sidelines, sighing from time to time.

The person kneeling on the ground was Luo Wen, who walked out of Kyoto the day before and wanted to go back to the barracks to pack his things, but was taken back to the East Palace by the second prince halfway.

The crown prince Zhu Di locked Luo Wen in the East Palace for a whole night, and when he was released this morning, Luo Wen had an extra petition letter in his hand to crusade against Lin Ziren.

Luo Wen also figured out the intentions of the crown prince and the second prince, but he still wanted to go to the frontier to find Yang Bing's whereabouts in person, after all, Wan Qi Keer did not see Yang Bing's body, and Luo Wen thought that Yang Bing was not dead.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please go to the frontier to support the four princes and crusade against Lin Ziren!" Luo Wen would say this every other hour.

Zhu Di chuckled and put down the book in his hand: "Luo Wen, I don't want Yang Bing to die like you, but in the current situation, Kyoto is far more dangerous than Tongtianguan, and anyone can move, but only you can't move, understand?" ”

The second prince on the side stood up and walked in front of Luo Wen and picked him up: "The prince is right, at this time, no one related to Yang Bing can act rashly, once you move and go to Tongtian Pass, then the strength of the Yang family and the Wan Qi family in Kyoto will be less, and in that case, Lin Feng will take advantage of the weakness." ”

"However, the battle of Tongtian Pass is important, in case Tongtian Pass is lost, wouldn't Daming be in danger!" Luo Wen stood up and was still puzzled.

Zhu Di looked at Luo Wen and said with a smile: "Don't worry, on the night of Ke'er's return, I had already reported to my father, sent a secret letter overnight, and mobilized 100,000 troops to Tongtian Pass." ”

Luo Wen was stupid, the army in Kyoto was all there, and where did the 100,000 army come from?

Zhu Di saw Luo Wen's doubts and explained, "Have you forgotten, the sixth prince?" ”

When Luo Wen heard this, he suddenly realized, and the nervous expression on his face relaxed a lot.

Yes, Daming also has a six princes who can fight well, this six princes are the youngest among the princes, but they are indeed the ones who are the best at leading troops to fight.

He entered the army at the age of fourteen and made countless military exploits in two years, but I don't know why he almost disappeared after the age of sixteen, and there was no news of the six princes in Kyoto or even in the imperial palace.

The rumor outside, the most talked about is that the six princes were squeezed out of the palace by several other brothers and stayed away from Kyoto.

But in fact, where the six princes went, only the royal family itself knew.

Just when Luo Wen was still thinking about the process and details of the matter, a eunuch walked in outside with a will in his hand.

Zhu Di saw the eunuch come in and said to Luo Wen: "Luo Wen listens to the seal." ”

Luo Wen reacted, glanced at the holy decree and the crown prince standing in front of him, and didn't know what to do, or the second prince on the side reminded him: "Why are you stunned, kneel down to receive the decree." ”

"Uh-oh." Luo Wen reacted and quickly knelt down.

Zhu Di continued: "I asked the Holy Lord for a will, ordering Luo Wen, the deputy general of the Tiger Banner Battalion, to remove him from his position as a general, demote him to a commoner, and not to enter the Ming army again in this life. ”

When Luo Wen heard this, he didn't feel uncomfortable, but he was even more puzzled, and said in his heart This is the holy decree? Do you still need the permission of the Holy Lord to get rid of me as an adjutant general?

The prince looked at Luo Wen's reaction and then continued to read: "Later, Luo Wen, the former deputy general of the Tiger Banner Battalion, was the commander of the dark department, and at the same time was in charge of the Black Armor Guard, and his official position was from the fourth grade, and he was directly ordered by Yang Bing, the general of the Yuecai Cavalry!" When the prince said Yang Bing's name, his tone was obviously a little lost.

This appointment was made by Yang Bing and the crown prince Zhu Di before leaving Kyoto, in order to establish a real intelligence department, although the Ming Dynasty already had Jinyiwei, but in Yang Bing's eyes, the method of probing intelligence in this era was still very backward.

Moreover, Zhu Yuanzhang was also disappointed in Jinyiwei, in recent years, Jinyiwei gradually stopped performing his duties, but relied on his imperial power concession, squeezing profits everywhere, blinding the royal family's sight, so when Zhu Yuanzhang heard this request, he agreed without too much thought, and did not ask himself to be in charge, Zhu Yuanzhang also wanted Zhu Di to establish his own intelligence department.

Luo Wen was stunned, and was stunned for a moment before reacting: "Your ,,, will thank you!" ”

Luo Wen's heart at this moment, I can't say whether he is moved or shocked, what is moved is that Yang Bing has asked for such a big official position for himself, and what is shocked is that Yang Bing has already arranged the formation of the dark department, Luo Wen also thought that Yang Bing's intention to form the dark department was only a temporary idea after accepting Shan Qin and Shan Lu that day.

"Alright, get up." Zhu Di put away the holy decree and handed it to Luo Wen in person.

Luo Wen stood up and respectfully concluded the holy decree: "Thank Your Royal Highness Prince for not killing him." ”

Luo Wen was talking about his reckless behavior in the past two days, such a thing, but if he was replaced by another person, he would have been cut down in front of the Lin Mansion a long time ago.

"Don't thank me, from now on, you just need to do your job well and establish the dark department, which is also what your young master told me before he left Kyoto, but he asked you to be this commander by name." After the prince saw Luo Wen's attitude now, he was relieved, he was also afraid that Luo Wen would be impulsive that day, kill Lin Mansion alone, and settle accounts with Lin Feng, in that case, he might really not know what to do.

Although he has a list in his hand, the people in it are all very important, and any person will be involved in a lot of problems, and now the war in Tongtianguan is still urgent, Zhu Di can only wait for the sixth and fourth brothers to return triumphantly, and then deal with the Lin family and those traitors.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can rest assured, Weichen will definitely not disappoint the Prince and the Holy Lord!"

"Let's go, I'll take you to the place prepared for you, and during this time, you won't wander around Kyoto for the time being, and concentrate on building the dark department." After Zhu Di finished speaking, he picked up a scroll from the bookcase: "This is the training method of the dark part written by Yang Bing, I have read it in this palace, it is very exquisite, you have to study hard." ”

Luo Wen took it cautiously, and then followed the crown prince and the second prince out of the East Palace.

At this moment, Lin Feng came to a house, and as soon as he entered, Lin Feng couldn't control the lascivious smile on his face.

Just now, Lin Feng was still angry, and yesterday the second prince asked him to kneel down and reply, and Shuang'er brought him good news.

This morning, Ziyun went out alone to buy some necessities on the Yang Mansion, and the news of Yang Bing's unknown life and death had not yet been transmitted back to the Yang Mansion, so Ziyun did not know the news.

It's fun to walk down the street.

"Boss, do you still have Biluochun at home? My lord named you to drink your Biluochun. Ziyun came to the tea shop where Yang Mansion always bought tea.

"Miss Ziyun is here again, the prime minister's tea has already been prepared, you sit down and drink tea first, and I'll get it for you." The shopkeeper of the tea shop was very enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that Ziyun was a little uncomfortable, after all, in the past, he came to buy tea, and this shopkeeper was ignorant of it, but today he personally made tea for himself.

But doubts are doubts, Ziyun is just a maid after all, she doesn't have so much thought, and when she saw that the tea that the shopkeeper made for herself was also Biluochun, she immediately tasted it, where did she have the opportunity to drink this kind of precious tea.

Soon two cups of tea went down, Ziyun only felt that his head was a little heavy, and his eyelids couldn't stop wanting to close, just when he was about to hold on, Ziyun saw the shopkeeper of the tea shop coming over.

"Miss Ziyun, don't blame me, that's Lin Gongzi, I can't afford to provoke it."

Ziyun then lost consciousness.
