Chapter 48 The Emperor is angry

The Qianniu Guards, formerly known as the Left and Right Qianniu Guards, numbered only six hundred and were inconspicuous in the Tang army.

They are responsible for the guards, attendants and honor guards of the emperor, empress and prince.

Most of these people were born in Qin Fu, Zuo Xun Fu and Zuo Yi Fu. These five Fus are collectively called the "Five Fus".

The nature of the Five Prefectures is the same as that of the Zhechong Prefecture, except that the soldiers of the Five Prefectures are not "ordinary soldiers", but are made up of relatives of the emperor, former relatives of honorable ministers, and the children of officials above the fifth rank of the imperial court.

Li Yuan, the great ancestor of the Tang Dynasty, served as a bodyguard for his uncle Emperor Wen of Sui Dynasty. Li Mi from Wagangzhai also served as a bodyguard for the Eastern Palace of Prince Yang Yong.

Therefore, Yin Erhu can defeat eight of these Qianniu Guards by himself.

The reason why he is running so fast now is that the left and right Qianniu Guards are different. They are now under the jurisdiction of the Queen and are collectively called Qianniu Guards.

The army of the capital of the Tang Dynasty was generally divided into two yamen: the north and south yamen. The north yamen were the emperor's personal troops, also called Yu Lin. The south yamen commanded the remaining twelve guards except the left and right Qianniu guards and the left and right prison guards. The remaining twelve

Wei is the superior management unit of Zhechong Mansion.

Whether it is Beiya or Nanya, neither the Queen can get involved in it. After all, Li Zhi is now extremely sensitive to military power, and whoever touches it will die.

However, there are only more than 600 Qianniu Guards on the left and right, and most of the personnel are useless for decoration and to solve the problem of officials' children joining the officialdom.

Therefore, when the queen asked to manage these ceremonial guards and guard, Li Zhi agreed without paying attention.

The biggest reason why Yin Erhu ran so fast with the monkey on his back was that today's Qianniu Guards were completely different from the left and right Qianniu Guards in the past.

In the past, Yin Erhu could defeat eight Qianniu Guards by himself. Since the Queen took over the Qianniu Guards and spent six years reorganizing the Qianniu Guards, Yin Erhu felt that if he wore armor, he could probably defeat one Qianniu Guards. If there were two, he would have to spare no effort.

If he had to risk his life to fight to the death, with three Qianniu Guards, Yin Erhu could hold on for half a stick of incense, and then he would end up being torn into pieces by the Qianniu Guards.

The weapon Qianniuwei wields is the Qianniu Sword. It is said that this kind of knife can kill a thousand cows without curling the blade.

Although Yin Erhu's horizontal sword was made by skilled craftsmen from the Western Regions and was made of wootz steel, Yin Erhu still refused to use this horizontal sword to face the armored Qianniu Guards who did not take his life seriously at all.

of.

Therefore, the two tigers of Yin can run faster than a galloping horse!

Xue Changfeng was not slow in running. He originally thought that Yin Erhu would risk his foolishness to save Zhong Kui, but he didn't expect that this guy is now a true follower of good deeds.

After running for three miles in one breath, Yin Erhu saw a thatched pavilion in the mountain stream. Yin Erhu stopped and entered the pavilion. He put the monkey on the stone table and signaled Xue Changfeng to help save the monkey. He stood on the roadside and looked back anxiously.

Look, he's not worried that the other brothers haven't come back.

Fortunately, when the count reached six, the last subordinate ran back, and Yin Erhu breathed a sigh of relief.

Yin Erhu was slightly proud of being able to escape from the encirclement of fifty Qianniu Guards.

"Why are you happy? This time we are not their targets, that's why we can escape."

Xue Changfeng had already helped Monkey cut off the shaft of the crossbow and threw it on the ground with a clang. Apart from Qian Niuwei, no one had heard of anyone whose crossbow arrows were made of all steel.

After successfully pulling out the arrow shaft from the monkey's body, Yin Erhu picked up the arrow and smelled it, then put it in front of the torch to take a look, and said to Xue Changfeng: "Fortunately, it's not a poisonous arrow."

Xue Changfeng said: "Hurry and pack up, we have to start running soon. Three miles is not enough distance, and there is only one road. There are six forked roads beyond five miles. We will be safe only when we get there."

Yin Erhu said with a smile: "As long as I don't encounter Qianniu Guards, I don't care about others. Even if there are thousands of troops, I will dare to charge."

Xue Changfeng looked disdainfully at Yin Erhu, who liked to brag in front of him. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a group of masked men in white clothes coming out of the thatched pavilion, as silently as ghosts.

Yin Erhu coughed dryly and said: "Brothers, let's continue on our way. We may not be able to return to Luoyang before dawn. The shopkeeper is still waiting for us to work."

Having said that, he carried the unconscious monkey on his back first and then went around to the left to leave this land of right and wrong.

The men in white separated a group of people and blocked their way.

Seeing that he couldn't get over it, Yin Erhu was about to stand up and speak. Unexpectedly, Xue Changfeng stood up first, looked at the man in white opposite and said: "We are from His Highness Prince Lu, please don't get me wrong."

The man in white said nothing and looked at Xue Changfeng coldly. However, their actions of drawing their swords in unison showed that they did not intend to let Yin Erhu and his party go.

Xue Changfeng said angrily: "A group of bastards from Silla dare to block the way of my grandfathers. Be careful that my Highness will be angry and cut you into pieces."

The silent Silla people seemed to become even more angry. Several people had already crossed the line and were about to attack Xue Changfeng.

Although Xue Changfeng's body was wrapped in linen, he stood upright. He looked at the several Silla Hwarang disciples who came over and said: "With the Queen's support, you can kill us. Your Highness probably won't have anything to say, but we

If you are dead, you must not let His Highness discover the traces of you Silla people. Once discovered, you know what the consequences will be.

If the nine lives I have here cannot be exchanged for your nine hundred or nine thousand lives, I will take your last name."

The Hwarang disciples who came forward seemed to be frightened by these words. They stopped and looked at one side. Immediately, a masked woman came out from there. She said in a hoarse voice: "You are worthy of His Highness King Lu offending the Queen."

?"

Xue Changfeng said: "We are subordinates of Duke Zhou. If you are a sensible person, you should know the relationship between our Duke and His Highness Prince Lu."

The woman whispered: "He Lan Minzhi?"

Xue Changfeng said: "Exactly."

The woman asked again: "Does His Highness King Lu know?"

Xue Changfeng said proudly: "I didn't know it before, but now Prince Lu and our Duke live together day and night. How can I not know why?"

I don't know what the woman opposite was thinking. She didn't say anything anymore, waved her hand, and left the thatched pavilion with Hwarangtu.

Looking at the Hwarang disciples disappearing on the path, Yin Erhu said with admiration: "Old Xue, you are still smart."

Xue Changfeng shook his head indifferently and said: "After all, I didn't cheat. It was better to just start fighting."

After casually sending out a scout, Yin Erhu said, "Isn't it pretty good?"

Xue Changfeng sighed and said: "How many people in this world know that He Lan Minzhi and His Highness Prince Lu are siblings from the same mother, but they have revealed a boss's secret to each other in vain."

Yin Erhu said in confusion: "You said that Helan Minzhi and His Royal Highness Prince Lu are the same mother, is it true? Helan Minzhi's grandfather had an affair with the queen?

Aren’t you talking nonsense?”

Xue Changfeng smiled and said: "Yes, it is indeed nonsense. Let's go and leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible."

Yin Erhu shook his head and said: "You take the brothers back first, and I will follow you later to have a look, so that the Lord does not know the true situation of Qixia Temple."

Xue Changfeng shook his head and said: "I always feel something is wrong. It is better to leave as soon as possible. It is easy to lose your life if you continue to stay here."

Yin Erhu said with a smile: "I have already encountered two dangers. I don't believe that today will be so unlucky that anyone can encounter it."

As soon as Yin Erhu finished speaking, a shrill cry of a night owl came from the woods ahead. Before the cry stopped, Yin Erhu heard a dense burst of crossbow arrows. Xue Changfeng rushed into the woods without saying a word. A moment later

, he ran out of the woods with a person on his back, and without saying a word, he dived into the dense woods on the opposite side.

Naturally, Yin Erhu was not willing to lag behind. Seeing that Xue Changfeng had rescued his own people, he followed him into the dense woods.

"Who the hell is he? He uses crossbow arrows to greet birds when they hear them. Isn't that fucking reasonable..."

Zuo Chun, who was wearing heavy armor, walked over from the path, looked at the empty thatched pavilion, picked up a severed steel crossbow arrow from the ground, glanced at his deputy Han Tongtong: "There are Qianniu Guards, change through them."

Armored Arrow."

Han Tong sneered and said, "You are vulnerable."

Zuo Chun looked at the direction in which Yin Erhu and the others were escaping and said, "Send the order. No one will be left alive within three miles of Qixia Temple."

Xue Changfeng and Yin Hu each carried a wounded person on their backs and ran faster than galloping horses.

This time, Yin Erhu kept his mouth shut tightly. He always felt that the dangers encountered by his group one after another were related to his bad mouth.

Seeing that his eyes suddenly opened up and a river appeared in front of everyone, Xue Changfeng didn't even hesitate and jumped into the river with people on his back.

Yin Erhu and his companions did not think about it, and followed Xue Changfeng into the river. The river was not wide, nor deep, but the current was very fast. Only when everyone fell into the water, they were swept out ten feet away by the current.

In the Shangyang Palace, there was singing and dancing. Li Zhi and Wu Mei invited them to drink. They both picked up the wine bottles and drank the grape wine in one gulp.

Wu Mei gently touched the corner of her mouth with her handkerchief and said, "Why is Your Majesty so polite today?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "It is said that it is not strange for many people to be polite, and the same is true for you and me."

Wu Mei shook her head and said: "Your Majesty used to be such a polite person. When you are polite, you must ask for something, but I don't know what your Majesty wants?"

Li Zhi smiled and said: "The queen is wrong. The thunder, rain and dew are all your kindness. The reason why I invite you to drink is just because I want to invite you to drink. The queen does not need to worry too much."

Wu Mei frowned and said: "Your Majesty, you know that Zhang Guo is not dead, and the scene outside the imperial city is just a deception.

Don't be surprised if Your Majesty sees Zhang Guo again in the future."

When Li Zhi heard this, he stood up with a roar and shouted angrily outside the dark Shangyang Palace: "Zuo Chun, are you a dead person? Do you want me to tell you again the principle of death when a king humiliates his ministers?"

Immediately, a thunderous response came from outside the palace. Wu Mei frowned, looked at the emperor and said, "What is your Majesty's intention?"

Li Zhi said angrily: "Ping Yiping the anger in my heart."
