Chapter 641 Donkey’s Hooves
Ran Min and Zheng Houye have many similarities. They started from a humble beginning and rode the wind in this age of great strife;
But there is one thing between them. The biggest difference;
When Mr. Zheng opened an inn in Hutou City, he felt that his life was quite valuable;
After taking office, he even used "Gou" to give full play to To the extreme.
He didn't have Lao Tian's personal strength, but the security force around Mr. Zheng was enough to make those people or forces who had thought of using extreme methods such as assassination to deal with this threat feel sour, or even... toothache.
Ran Min is different.
His mentality has always been very fixed.
He is destined to die.
From the time when he started doing business, until Now, he has never changed.
Possibly,
Even though the Yan Royal Horse stepped on the door and cleared the foundation of the family in one fell swoop, and the Yan's successive conquests created countless opportunities, in the end, those who could really seize this opportunity to get up and stand up were all Those who are willing to risk themselves.
So,
He is not threatening the Queen Mother,
He is just making a statement,
State a fact:
My life is going to die anyway. If I trade your life, it’s worth it to me. I’ll make a profit. What about you?
The back of the knife felt a little cold against the skin,
Ran Min was thinking in the bottom of his heart,
silently thinking,
He knew that the Queen Mother had been forced into a predicament by him at this time,
not willing to die,
but there was no way to go down,
could have played a better emotional card , but was completed by a captain of the city patrol department,
So,
You should pass out.
"How dare you!"
The Queen Mother pointed her finger at Ran Min and shouted angrily. Then, she leaned back and "fainted".
This is the best explanation for this matter. Since there are no steps, then just lie down and wait for someone to move you down.
At this moment,
Ran Min realized in his heart that the so-called princes, nobles and noble families were nothing more than that.
Put away the knife,
Get up,
Ran Min bowed his hands and saluted:
"The Queen Mother is slightly ailing, help her down, and have a good rest."< br>
Immediately afterwards,
Ran Min raised his hand,
and ordered to his subordinates;
“Get someone!”
“Here!”
< br>
"Here!"
"Wait!"
At this time,
a big man in armor walked out, followed by a group of royal guards.
They walked out without knives.
The Han Dynasty's surname was Xu. He was once a guard at the palace gate of Dacheng Kingdom, equivalent to the sword-carrying guard in front of the emperor in later generations.
He was the Su Wei who once accompanied Situ Lei to fight against the Chu people at Zhennan Pass, and later followed the emperor out of the pass to fight against the savages.
When the Dacheng Kingdom returned to Yan,
with his status at the time, it was more than enough to seek a position as a guerrilla general in the army. If he survived a few battles, he would be promoted to the rank of general military officer of the Jin people. There is no suspense.
In the end, it will not be as good as Gong Wang now, but the gap will not be too big;
But he chose to stay, stay in the palace, and protect the young master.
"Captain Ran, Xu is bound by himself."
Ran Min knew Xu Peng. To be precise, as the Commander-in-Chief of the City Patrol Division, and even the entire City Patrol Division , what they monitor is more of a series of old bureaucrats and dignitaries represented by the palace.
"Commander Xu, you are not in the palace guard sequence. You have an official status."
This time, only guards are taken, and they are registered guards.
Whether or not you are registered is very simple. There are records in the prefect's palace. Because everyone in the palace, from the guards to the maids and eunuchs, although they are all members of the palace, theoretically, they can get their salary from the official every month.
In other words, they essentially eat the food and wages of the Yan court to serve the palace.
Xu Peng smiled and
shouted:
“The Imperial Guards of Daxing Emperor are all here!”
"Here!"
"Here!"
Xu Peng took off his armor,
"Remove the armor!"
"Here!"
"Here!"
All the royal guards began to remove their armor.
Very heroic,
Very heroic,
But in Ran Min's eyes, he is undoubtedly a fool who only wants his own pleasure.
First, the Queen Mother, with clear resentment, stabbed His Majesty the Emperor Yan for breaking his promise and getting fat, and bullying their orphans and widowed mothers;
Now there are old people from the Dacheng Kingdom, and it was Wu Xun who took the lead in calling out the Daxing Emperor’s Iron Guard. Look, It seems to be self-restrained and voluntary surrender, but in terms of scene and integrity, it is tragic and solemn.
They are comfortable, they are enjoying themselves,
Well,
it’s pretty good.
Ran Min knew that there must be people from the Secret Service here. Everything that happened here today would be sent to Yanjing as quickly as possible, to the prince of the prison country, to the officials, and even... Delivered to the backyard.
The world is rough and the people's perspectives are actually different from those of those in power.
In the eyes of the superiors, this scene is not miserable, indignant, or sonorous,
but,
Cheng Prince’s Mansion,
The remaining veins of Dacheng Kingdom,
I don’t accept it!
What should we do if we deal with people who are dissatisfied?
Do him.
Very good, the biggest risk on this errand is definitely that they cut it out for themselves.
Ran Min felt that they might have been the master for so long that they had forgotten how to kneel in the most standard way.
"Everyone who comes, take them all and count them according to the register. If they are all found, they will not enter the house and disturb the peace of the prince and queen mother.
Although Commander Xu is not on the register, he can still Commander Xu, please go to the City Patrol Division for tea.”
The guards were gathered together and the head count began.
Xu Peng walked up to Ran Min,
Ran Min can even feel the energy and blood surging in the opponent's body.
This is a master,
An irrefutable master.
At such a close distance, fighting If you do, your own knife will have no time to touch the opponent, and the bones will be smashed by the opponent's fist.
But Ran Min is not afraid at all,
Still looking at Xu Peng with a smile,
said:
“I don’t know what kind of tea Commander Xu likes to drink.”
“Captain Ran, I advise you, If you want to send these brothers on the road, let me go with my brothers, otherwise..."
Ran Min nodded,
Said;
"Ran is dead, but he still manages to stay a part of it. If he is thicker-skinned, he can claim to be an official of the imperial court. One life is worth another, so Ran doesn't feel like he is at a loss."< br>
“Do you really think I’m just scaring you?”
Ran Min didn’t answer,
but looked around,
Closed his eyes,
took a breath,
said:
“It’s good to bury it here.”
Xu Peng’s facial muscles were listening. After saying this, he started twitching.
"Report, Captain, two people are missing."
Ran Min looked at Xu Peng.
"The death was not reported in time."
Ran Min nodded and said: "Okay, return to the City Patrol Division!"
The soldiers of the City Patrol Division escorted The palace guards left the palace,
Xu Peng still followed,
Ran Min did not ride a horse, but walked side by side with Xu Peng.
After leaving the palace,
out of the former royal road,
when turning into the street of Minxiang,
There were many people watching around.
Most of these people have been from Yingdu for several lifetimes, and in their understanding, they have become accustomed to the superior existence of the Situ family.
Even though the Yan people came later and the palace turned back into a royal palace, the direct lineage of the Situ family still maintained its honor.
But today,
this person is honorable and inviolable,
Trampled.
Xu Peng, who was walking beside Ran Min, said;
"Xu heard that the new prefect ordered beheading? Haha."
This In fact, it is a kind of temptation,
Implicitly,
A negotiation.
Because everything should have a twist.
Ran Min suddenly felt a little boring,
Some people, even when asking for help or even discussing, have to adopt a condescending tone and tone;
Furthermore,
I just can't see the form clearly.
Ran Min pretended to be surprised and said:
"Ah, Ran almost forgot. Thank you Commander Xu for reminding me. The prison is full and there is no place to detain people. If someone comes, they will be executed on the spot. ! ”
“Pfft!”
“Pfft!”
"Poof!"
In fact, the soldiers of the city patrol department who had been prepared for a long time directly thrust their swords into the bodies of these bound palace guards, and there were also soldiers holding crossbows who shot the crossbow arrows without hesitation.
For a time,
on the street,
the smell of blood quickly filled the air.
There were very few screams at first, because the guards had no time to scream.
But then, screams started one after another, and the people watching the excitement around them did not expect such a sudden appearance at all, and they were frightened and panicked.
Xu Peng froze on the spot. He watched his brother's blood slowly flow together, and then slowly spread to the soles of his boots.
His body was trembling, and the energy and blood in his body were stirring.
Ran Min did not stay away from him,
Instead, he got close to him,
as if he was sent to his door on his own initiative,
But Xu Peng held back,
Ran Min then shook his head in disappointment,
< br>Smiling disdainfully,
Immediately,
I felt a little lost again.
I was provoked by Xu Peng and my rhythm was disrupted.
Originally,
what came to his mind was the words that Marquis Pingxi sat on the back of Pixiu on the bank of Wangjiang River and under the Yupan City, and asked the people around him gently:< br>
How come they are still alive?
Huh,
This scene
has always been imprinted in Ran Min's mind.
Today, he can look down on the people in the palace, but it is impossible for him to look down on Lord Pingxi.
A few days ago, after the Marquis of Pingxi was granted the title of Marquis, there was an imperial historian in the city of Yanjing who expressed praise but concealed evil intentions and said:
Looking at today's Yan State, most people in the military regard the Marquis of Pingxi as their leader. A role model.
But, this is indeed the truth.
Even Ran Min is not exempt from vulgarity. He originally planned to copy this play, but in the end he failed to do so and was unable to pay tribute to his idol.
What a pity,
What a pity.
…………
“It’s too much to bully others, it’s too much to bully others!!!!”
Situ Yu kept roaring in the inner hall.
The old eunuch Zhao Wenhua just knelt there and stopped in front of the palace door.
Next to Situ Yu, there is a tablet, which is Situ Lei's tablet.
The Queen Mother went out and then "fainted";
Zhao Wenhua didn't have the ability to clone himself. He failed to stop the Queen Mother, but he stopped Situ Yu.
First he was stepped on by Lord Pingxi on Shishan,
Then he was slapped by the new prefect,
Although Situ Yu was young and had some wealth, he couldn't hold back and exploded.
If Zhao Wenhua hadn't stopped him,
if the palace guards hadn't been tied up and sent away, and no one would have helped Situ Yu to take away the old gelding,
it might have been Situ Yu had already rushed out holding Situ Lei's tablet.
"My lord, we are slaves and we are fish and meat. At this time, we need to be more tolerant and endure hardships before we can become masters. Even Emperor Daxing had been dormant for a long time before finally finding the opportunity. After establishing meritorious service at Zhennanguan, he returned to the court and won the throne.”
"But I can't bear it, I can't bear it!"
Zhao Wenhua sighed,
stood up,
walked to the decorative shelf on one side,
>
He reached out and picked up a dagger inlaid with gems, then walked up to Situ Yu and presented the dagger to him.
"Zhao Banban, what do you mean?"
"If you can't bear it anymore, you have no choice but to die, Your Majesty."
Maybe everything is not going well these days, but this one The young master is still acting out of his own will, and coupled with the Queen Mother's meddling, Zhao Wenhua is also a bit confused. He couldn't help but get angry:
"I don't dare to die, I don't want to die, it's not worth dying, so I have to endure it."
The corners of Situ Yu's mouth trembled a few times, staring at this face The old eunuch who had already developed age spots finally took a few steps back and sat back on the chair.
"But how long can you endure it?"
"My lord, you are still young, and you are still old. The Emperor Yan in Yanjing City has only a few days left, and the servants don't believe it either. He The Yan Kingdom really still has a hundred years of power.
When the situation changes in the future, you will still have a chance.
Now,
No matter what happens, < br>
No matter what we encounter,
all we can do is endure, endure, and endure. "
Situ Yu showed a sneer on his face, a very clear sneer, a sneer that was deliberately meant to be seen by the people in front of him.
Zhao Wenhua was a little helpless,
He had He is Situ Lei’s companion,
He has seen Situ Lei's appearance and character when he was young.
To be honest,
the person in front of him
is much worse than Emperor Daxing back then. many.
“Zhao Banban.”
"The slave is here."
"My mother asked me to wait, let me sleep, and let me at least preserve the rich heritage of this lineage. I know clearly that my mother really wants me to be well.
The queen mother comes from a womanly family. She doesn’t know what’s going on outside, nor how dangerous it is outside. When my father is here, The queen mother is very comfortable. After her father left, the queen mother can only support the inner house.
The queen mother may not have done a good job, but Gu knows that the queen mother is Gu's biological mother. No matter what she does, her starting point is always the same. It’s for Gu, for her son.”
“What the prince said is absolutely true.”
"But Zhao Fan is with you!"
"My lord..."
"You really think you are completely blind and deaf. You really think you are like a child, easy to fool." ?
Gu wants to be stable. If the Yan people are willing, Gu also wants to do something, at least, to make the palace more decent.
Zhao Banban, you are shouting. To endure alone,
But do you really think that Gu has no idea what Zhao Banban and you and those other people are doing behind the scenes without telling Gu and his mother? "
"The old slave has absolutely no second thoughts about the prince and the queen mother. The old slave will be loyal to Emperor Daxing and to you, the prince, throughout his life. "
"Haha, what do you say about Shishan? "
Situ Yu stretched out his hand and knocked hard,
"Is it possible that the Marquis of Pingxi is really angry at Gu for no reason but just dislikes Gu? ”
...
“Wouldn’t it be good to treat these orphans and widowers like this?”
In a military fort outside Yingdu, a captain who was born in the Jin Army was leading His subordinates performed for Lord Zheng.
Zheng Houye stood on the wall of the military fort with a smile on his face.
Hearing what the sword master said,
Mr. Zheng continued to smile without turning around,
said:
“You can’t bear it anymore?”
“No.”
“ Just one word from you, and I will stop. It’s just a palace, and it’s not as important as your position in my heart, Yu Huaping.”
"Zheng Fan."
"Huh?"
"I have met many princes and generals. Do you know what is the biggest difference between you and them?"
>"You said."
"They have already started asking for face before they even reach your position."
"Hahaha, actually, I also want to save face, but after all, we are members of my own family, so it's different. Lao Yu, if we get along for a longer time, I can accept Dahu as my godson. You should also work hard. I'll wait for you. After my biological son came out, I also Accept him as your godson. If there is a day in the future, it is not impossible to give him to a prince. "
"You have too many godsons, can the prince make him one?"
"Where is this? Ah, the Chu State has not been attacked, and the Qian State has not been attacked. There are so many small countries in the middle. Besides, there is also the vast desert, and, if nothing else, we have crossed the desert to the west. There is also a larger territory. "
The Sword Master shook his head and said: "I am actually discussing this issue with you."
"Old Yu, I understand you, and I also feel that you are also slow. Understand me slowly.”
"Usually the beginning of this kind of words means that you are paving the way for asking me to do something next time."
"I mean, I am a close friend, and I have always wanted to be your friend. ”
“The speaking skills of Jianghu sects usually start with this kind of speaking.” I just want to trick you into hurting you.”
“Hahaha, let’s put it this way, Lao Tian dares to keep Tiantian here with me, which proves that I, Zheng Fan, am at least here.
You,
If one day you get tired of it,
and want to go out and travel with swords again,
it’s okay,
I’ll take care of your family, young and old, we are neighbors anyway. "
"No more chatting, I'm going to take a nap. ”
The sword master waved his hand and left the city wall.
Zheng Fan continued to smile and watch the drill below.
After a while,
Gou Moli came up with two female dolls.
“Tell me, what are your names?” Gou Moli asked the two female dolls.
"To your lord, my name is Helian Xianglan."
"To your lord, my name is Wen Renmi'er."
Gou Moli asked again:
"Where did you come from?"
"We were adopted by Prince Cheng's Mansion."
"Yes, the prince is very kind to us."
"Okay, let's go down."
"Yes, my lord."
"Yes, my lord."
Gou Moli approached Zheng Fan and asked, "Master Marquis, what do you think of this?"
Zheng Fan shook his head and said: "It doesn't stand up to scrutiny."
Gou Moli said flatteringly: "Anyway, if you want to inflict a crime, there is no point in it, just provide a target."
" It's not that time yet, just knock it and keep it for now. Also, The candidates need to be changed again.”
“Yes, my subordinates just found two examples. When they really need to be used, they will be trained in accent and posture. Mr. Feng is good at this.”
“I didn’t ask you to do this.”
"This is what subordinates should do. Anyone who has been stepped on by the master but has not been trampled to death or who has offended the master will be prepared to bite them completely to death if necessary."
Zheng Fantan Take a breath and say
;
"I feel that the Situ family has to be so stupid to adopt an orphan from the Wen family or the Helian family. No one would seek death like this.
Unless,
Got kicked in the head by a donkey. "
......
"My lord, please calm down. ”
A young girl came over and gently touched Situ Yu’s back.
In the bedroom,
Situ Yu had a stern face,
but after the girl came over, his expression softened significantly.
“My slave is thoughtful and wants to make a decision for his master, but his hands and feet are not clean. The most annoying thing is that he can’t even attack him.
Haha,
Everyone in the palace seems to call me Prince or Young Master, but in fact, who really takes me seriously? ”
As she spoke,
the girl reached out and stroked the back of Situ Yu’s head,
softly comforted:
“My lord, you have to hold on, everyone in the slave family has been The Yan people have been killed, and I can only rely on you, the prince, for the rest of my life." (End of Chapter)
