Chapter 21: The Strange Decree

As soon as He Chongshan's voice fell, a group of hulala people poured into the courtyard, neatly and neatly, standing in two rows, each with his hand on the handle of the knife, with a solemn expression. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info It was a group of soldiers brought by He Chongshan to guard the messengers.

When the group of people stood still, a lieutenant officer, holding a scroll in his hand, strode in.

The lieutenant stood still and shouted in a shrieked voice, "The Holy Decree has arrived!" The voice was high-pitched, obviously specially practiced.

The lieutenant shouted, and Li Yan and others stepped forward and knelt down.

Wu Jidong was kicked to the ground by Zhu Yan, and just climbed up, when he heard a shout from the lieutenant official, he quickly twisted his body and knelt on the ground again.

The Zhu brothers also stepped forward and knelt down.

The poisonous boy who was riding on the young man's shoulder slipped off the young man's back, ran a few steps, and knelt behind everyone.

Previously, when everyone saw him sitting on the young man's shoulder, they thought he was not good at walking, but they didn't expect that he was a man who could walk, run and jump. Presumably, in order to match the name of his two brothers, he sat on the shoulders of others.

As soon as these people knelt down, only Tie Zhu, Dugu Han, Zhang Ming and Dugu Haoran were left in the field, and then there was the big man who was riding on the poisonous boy, still standing in place in a demented state.

Qingyunzhai and the imperial court, I don't know how many battles have been fought, Tiezhu and Dugu Han naturally won't bow down to the court's Qincha. What's more, on the back of the iron pillar, there is also a Liu Yunfeng who does not know life and death.

Tie Zhu and Dugu Han don't kneel, and Zhang Ming naturally won't kneel. Moreover, at this time, the poison on Zhang Ming's body was attacking severely, and he was raising his breath to fight against the poison, where could he still kneel?

As for Dugu Haoran and others, they have always regarded themselves as people in the rivers and lakes, and they have never dealt directly with people in the court, so how could they go to the middle official of the bird?

After the lieutenant finished shouting, he saw everyone kneeling on the ground, and he was quite satisfied. Seeing that Tie Zhu and the others were still standing, their faces couldn't help but sink.

The lieutenant glanced at He Chongshan, saw that He Chongshan made a face to himself, and saw that these people who were still standing, at first glance, they were not easy people, and secretly cursed in his heart, "a group of rough billets", and slowly unfolded the scroll with both hands.

Unfolding the holy decree, the lieutenant cleared his throat and chanted loudly: "Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, today there is Qingyunzhai righteous Wu Jidong, loyal to the monarch and the country, well aware of the righteousness, leading Qingyunzhai to abandon the dark and serve the court." Qin Ming, the original Qingyun Zhai people, into the Qingyun Army. Conferred the title, Wu Jidong was the commander of the Qingyun Army's infantry army, and the commander-in-chief of the whole army. ”

Thinking of this, the lieutenant paused, glanced at everyone, and then read: "Check again, the former Qingyunzhai bandit leader Meng Wuji, with ill intentions, dared to steal military secrets. Wu Jidong, the commander of the Qingyun Army, Li Yan, the deputy envoy of the White Tiger Festival Hall, and Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan, the court supervisors of the Six Gates, jointly presided over the case and arrested Meng Wuji. And Liu Yunfeng, the former leader of Qingyunzhai, and others were brought back to Beijing for review. There must be no mistakes. Chin!"

After the lieutenant read out the decree, he asked with a smile, "Which one is Lord Wu?"

Wu Jidong gritted his teeth and knelt down a few steps, stepped forward and fell to the ground, shouting: "Thank you, Lord Longen!" Then, he raised his hands above his head and received the holy decree.

The iron pillar in the distance scolded: "Dog thief!

After Wu Jidong received the holy decree, he raised his head and said to the lieutenant, "Thank you, my lord!" This fart made the lieutenant extremely comfortable.

Those who are familiar with the doorway know that although these lieutenants are eunuchs, they don't like to hear people outside the palace call themselves "father-in-law".

Wu Jidong has long been interested in officialdom, so he has put a lot of effort into these curves. This "adult" is called Zhongguan Shutai.

When the lieutenant saw Wu Jidong raise his head, he said almost instinctively: "Lord Wu, young man...... Huh?"

The lieutenant inquired on the way here, this Wu Jidong is less than thirty years old, and his appearance is not bad, and now he has been accepted by Qin Xiang as the thirteenth Taibao.

The lieutenant thought that it would be good to sell him if he said a few nice words when he passed on the decree. After all, you don't have to spend money to buy good words.

The original intention of the lieutenant was to say that "Lord Wu is a young hero, a talent". This is also a common phrase used when delivering a message to young heroes. This lieutenant official, when he passed the decree in private and on weekdays, I don't know how many times he said it.

The words just began, and the lieutenant saw that Wu Jidong's left and right cheeks were swollen and high, and when he spoke, his front teeth were also open, and he couldn't go on with the rest of his words.

The lieutenant embarrassedly helped Wu Jidong up, and said affectionately to Wu Jidong: "The emperor's grace is vast. Lord Wu has a bright future!"

Seeing that Wu Jidong had received the holy decree, the others who knelt on the ground also got up.

Wu Jidong held the holy decree in one hand and the hand of the lieutenant official in the other and said, "Thank you, student, for your support!"

The lieutenant only felt that there was a stack of things in his palm, and when he peeked at it, it was a stack of gold leaves.

Zhongguan Dale secretly said that this Lord Wu was sensible, and said with a smile: "Since Lord Wu has accepted the order, let's do it." The lieutenant waved his hand, and one of the entourages presented another set of official uniforms.

Wu Jidong thanked the lieutenant again, turned around, his face was hideous, he stretched out his hand and pointed at Tie Zhu and the others, and shouted: "Come on, take down Liu Yunfeng, Tie Zhu, Dugu Han and the big man who made the hammer!"

As soon as the words fell, Dugu Haoran and the others were furious, and they were about to scold, but Zhu Yan shouted angrily: "Who dares?!"

Wu Jidong saw that Zhu Yan was about to jump out and scold, and he was angry and happy in his heart.

Angry, this guy jumped out against himself again. Happily, this guy humiliated himself before, and this time he jumped out to resist the decree, and he could just take revenge.

Wu Jidong raised the holy decree in his hand and said with a cruel smile: "You dare to resist the decree?

Zhu Yan was furious and scolded: "Resist your mother's will! Dare to frame the master?!" After scolding, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Wu Jidong.

Wu Jidong didn't expect that Zhu Yan dared to shoot at him at this time, but he was caught off guard and was grabbed by Zhu Yan's neck again.

Zhu Yan raised his right hand, slapped Wu Jidong on the left and right sides of his face, kicked him again, spat again, and scolded: "Fool! Which ear do you hear, let someone be taken in the holy decree?"

The lieutenant has been dealing with the Holy Decree all year round, and he was the first to taste it.

The decree speaks of "bring", not "taking."

To say that since the Holy Decree allows people to be "brought back" to Beijing for "examination", it is not impossible to arrest people back. But Zhu Yan's comparison is more serious, "bringing" is really not "taking", let alone "grasping".

Before this decree is opened, except for the person who drafted it, others at most know the general meaning, and no one knows what the specific words are inside.

This lieutenant didn't know in advance that the holy decree was written like this, and he couldn't help muttering in his heart.

This strange holy decree is the product of the wrestling between Zhu Dingbang, Lu Gongyi, Zeng Pu and Pang Wenyuan and Qin Mu.

A few days ago, Qin Mu was reminded by Mr. Fan, in order to prevent someone from disturbing the situation when Liu Yunfeng and others were intercepted and killed, the next day, he instructed his friends to make a break at the court meeting, saying that Wu Jidong would lead Qingyunzhai to return to the imperial court.

At the same time, he framed Meng Wuji for infiltrating the Beijing Division, stealing major military secrets, and asked the imperial court to issue an order to arrest Meng Wuji, Liu Yunfeng and others.

Pang Wenyuan's party also helped from the side.

The Son of Heaven was about to issue an edict, but Lu Gongyi and Zeng Pu, who had been silent in the court for a long time, proved that at the time of the incident, according to the information of the Taiyuan official army and the imperial court, Liu Yunfeng and others were resisting foreign enemies in Taiyuan and were great righteous men.

Baoguo Gong, who had been bedridden at home for a long time, also "improved" on this day, went to the court, and even invited the Son of Heaven to reward Liu Yunfeng and others for their assistance in defending the land.

Lu Gongyi, Zeng Pu and Zhu Dingbang didn't know at the time that Meng Wuji had been plotted to death by Wu Jidong and others.

The original intention of the three of them was that if they really couldn't protect Meng Wuji, they would protect Liu Yunfeng and the others first.

When the two sides were arguing fiercely in the imperial court, Qin Mu knew that Meng Wuji was dead.

For Qin Mu, this holy decree was just a move. Qin Mu even thought that by the time the holy decree arrived at Qingyun Village, Liu Yunfeng and the others would probably have already been ambushed.

Therefore, Qin Mu no longer dwelled on this matter.

As a result, the imperial court issued such a strange decree with vague language.

Before the two sides reached an agreement in the court, Zhu Dingbang, Lu Gongyi, and Zeng Pu had secretly dispatched Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan to Qingyunzhai to rescue, demanding that the two brothers must save the lives of Liu Yunfeng and others.

In the eyes of the three bosses, with the skills of these two brothers and the three signboards of Baoguogong, Taibao, and Taifu, as long as Liu Yunfeng and others are not dead, the two brothers should have no problem saving the lives of several people.

Clinker, after the two brothers received the instructions of Baoguo Gong, Taibao and Taifu, they rushed to Qingyunzhai at the same time, but what they saw was a corpse in one place, a Liu Yunfeng who did not know life and death, and several seriously injured men.

Baoguo Gong is a loyal martyr, and he has been fighting for the country for generations. Those who go to the battlefield desperately give their backs to their brothers.

The two brothers, Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan, have a family history, and the most respected is a good man who values love and righteousness. The most disgusting thing is the traitor who betrays his friends and seeks glory.

The two brothers had already heard of the chivalry of Liu Yunfeng and others, and then heard the appreciation of their grandfather and the two masters for Liu Yunfeng and others, although they had not met Liu Yunfeng and others, the two brothers admired them very much in their hearts.

When they got to Qingyun Village, Zhu Yan and Zhu Yan looked at the appearance of the iron pillar standing back to back with Liu Yunfeng and Zhang Ming on their backs, and then looked at the injuries of the two, they knew that these two must have been desperately protecting the brothers on their backs.

In the hearts of the two brothers Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan, they suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for Tiezhu and others.

Looking at Wu Jidong again, although the two brothers have never seen him, the two brothers have seen most of the twelve Taibao. Hearing him call himself the Thirteenth Taibao, the two brothers concluded that he was Wu Jidong.

Zhu Yan originally hated Wu Jidong for betraying his friends to seek glory, and when he saw him insulting the Taibao, he just took advantage of the topic and beat him.

Now, seeing that as soon as Wu Jidong received the holy decree, he picked up the chicken feathers and acted as an arrow, shouting to take people, Zhu Yan immediately stirred up the situation.

Wu Jidong didn't know why, so he immediately scolded Zhu Yan for resisting the decree and wanted to take him down.

Zhu Yan once again used the topic to play and beat Wu Jidong again.

This lieutenant knew the two brothers, Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan, and knew that these two young masters were categorically unprovoked.

The lieutenant can also see that Zhu Yan did it on purpose. Knowing that Wu Jidong's beating was in vain, the lieutenant had no choice but to smile dryly and said: "Little grandfather, this, this, this, are all for the sake of the saint......

The lieutenant didn't know that at this time, Wu Jidong was beaten by Zhu Yan for the second time.

After Zhu Yan finished beating, kicking, spitting, and scolding again, he felt comfortable. Seeing that the lieutenant came to persuade him, Zhu Yan was no longer embarrassed, and turned around and stood beside Zhu Jian.

Zhu Jian glanced at his younger brother, the corners of his mouth twitched, he wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh.

When Li Yan and the others saw Wu Jidong being beaten again, they were extremely angry.

After all, the Thirteen Taibao has both prosperity and loss. Although Zhu Yan's two slaps were directly on Wu Jidong's face, Li Yan and others felt that their faces were also hot.

After Zhu Yan finished scolding quickly, everyone tasted it, and then they understood the strangeness in the holy decree, and they could only sigh silently for Wu Jidong in their hearts.

He Chongshan also understood at this time.

However, even if he didn't understand, he wouldn't provoke the Zhu brothers for the sake of Wu Jidong.

Over the years, although the He family has climbed to the Taishi and the Prime Minister, if they anger the Baoguo Gong, the Taibao and the Taifu, if these three people really want to deal with him He Family, under the thunderous blow, the Taishi and the Prime Minister will definitely not tear their faces with these three bigwigs for the sake of the He family.

At that time, the He family was afraid that it would turn into powder in an instant.

Tiezhu and Dugu Han and others in the distance listened to the Zhongguan read out the holy decree, and organized the people of Qingyun Village into the Qingyun Army, which was led by Wu Jidong, and couldn't help but be furious.

Hearing that Meng Wuji was falsely accused of being a bandit leader, he was even more furious.

At this time, seeing Wu Jidong being beaten by Zhu Yan for the second time, Tie Zhu, Dugu Han and Zhang Ming, although they were each injured, they all laughed.

Wu Jidong wanted to take the opportunity to pinch Zhu Yan this time, even if he couldn't really do anything to him, he would humiliate him at worst.

clinker, this time he couldn't steal chickens, and he lost a handful of rice, and was beaten and humiliated by Zhu Yan again.

With the two slaps this time, Zhu Yan hit harder.

Wu Jidong's face was already swollen. After these two slaps, his face was swollen like a steamed bun.

Wu Jidong's eyes were not big. At this time, his eyes could only barely open a slit, and it was difficult to see things.

The pain of being beaten on the face and being kicked in the stomach came second.

Wu Jidong heard Li Yan and others call Zhu Jian and Zhu Yan the two brothers "princes" before, and then heard the names of the Zhu brothers mentioned in the holy decree, and after he was knocked to the ground, he heard the lieutenant call Zhu Yan "little grandfather", where do you still not understand, these two brothers are the two sons of the Baoguo family?

Listening to Zhu Yan's scolding again, a thought turned in his mind, and he also understood that he had been arresting people and taking revenge by himself, and he didn't taste the catty in the holy decree, and he was taken advantage of by the other party again.

But since the person who beat himself twice is the son of the Baoguo family, it is almost impossible to get this field back.

After Wu Jidong understood, he was angry, angry, ashamed, and anxious.

What is angry is that as soon as the two Zhu brothers appeared, they were in a mess and made frequent mistakes, resulting in being humiliated twice.

Angry, he was beaten twice, and it seems that he was beaten in vain.

What is ashamed is that in front of so many people, I was beaten, kicked, spitted, scolded, beaten, kicked, spitted, scolded, and humiliated again and again.

Anxiously, the word "belt" is used in the holy decree. The brothers of the Zhu family made it clear that they were making a hindrance. What's next?

When Wu Jidong was having mixed feelings in his heart, Tie Zhu, Dugu Han, Zhang Ming and others laughed.

Hearing the ridicule in this laughter, Wu Jidong rolled his eyes, fainted, cooed, and lay on the ground. I don't know if I was really in a hurry, I was stunned, or I pretended to be dizzy.

The lieutenant had already seen the embarrassment in the field.

The holy decree has been transmitted, his own envoy has also been completed, and the gold leaf has also arrived, and the lieutenant official saw that the form in the field was wrong, and neither of the two parties could afford to offend a lieutenant official with no quality and no position, so he immediately decided to slip away and stay away from right and wrong.

The lieutenant arched his hand to Zhu Jian, Zhu Yan, and Li Yan, and said: "The two little masters, the deputy envoy, our family's errand has been completed, and we still need to return to Beijing to resume our lives, so I won't stop you from doing the errand." Let's take our leave. With that, he hurried out of the courtyard as if he were fleeing.

When He Chongshan saw the lieutenant leaving, he shouted: "Let's go!" The two rows of soldiers turned around, and followed the lieutenant out of the courtyard.

He Chongshan hugged his fists at everyone in the field and said, "Everyone, this will protect Lord Qincha to pass the decree, and the envoy has already been dispatched." Farewell!" he turned and strode away.

Before leaving, He Chongshan specially glanced at Dugu Haoran and his party. In his eyes, there is a lot of meaning.
