When Xiao Chen's arm was put on his shoulders, Huang Anliang's heart "popped".
Is this the Dongchang minions who are here to catch me, or is this my long-time friend?
Before that, Huang Anliang had already thought about it.
Whatever Dongchang knows, he admits. As for what they don’t know, of course he doesn’t know.
After Xiao Chen made a huge noise outside, Huang Anliang felt a little scared.
However, what he fears is not that he will be caught.
Ever since his son-in-law Duan Shixiong was arrested, he knew that the number one spy organization around the emperor, Dongji Bureau, would definitely be targeting him.
When he returned to Changping Prefecture the next day, he wanted to pick up his daughter Huang. By the way, he was cleaning up Duan Shixiong's concubine, who had made him lose face. The empty house told him that Dongchang's subordinates
One goal is yourself.
He never underestimated the power of Dongchang, and he never dared to underestimate the ability of the captain of Dongchang.
Today, when he heard that things outside could not end, he walked out of the tent and saw Xiao Chen's young face, and he knew the outcome of today.
It's over. This person was the one responsible for the two arrests. He was definitely the number one executioner under that old eunuch Lin Shangli.
What he was really afraid of was Yanqingwei and the Qianhu who were involved in this matter.
He did not believe that these thousands of households could survive the various interrogations in Dongchang like him.
Once the matter comes to light, it will not only implicate the members of Jin Yiwei, but also the adults in the court.
Although he is selfish, he has the backbone and the courage to take responsibility.
Walking into the tent, Xiao Chen turned around with the off-blade scabbard in his hand and lowered the curtain at the entrance of the tent.
Letting go of Huang Anliang, Xiao Chen walked directly to the chair next to the commander's main seat.
After looking back and forth carefully, he placed the blade in his hand on the table, turned around, turned his back to the chair, touched the armrests with his hands for a while, and then sat down.
"Master Huang, this chair looks very carefully made. I wonder where you got it from?"
Huang Anliang frowned: "I bought this from a furniture store in Beijing."
But I thought in my heart: Is there something wrong with this person? First he was hooking up with me, and now he is asking these ridiculous questions. What does he want to do?
He was not afraid of hard words, let alone dirty ones, but this kind of incoherent and rambling questioning really confused him a bit. He was afraid that a faux pas might reveal a flaw.
"Will this chair heat up automatically?" Xiao Chen stretched his neck and looked at the other person.
"It's just a wooden chair, how can it get hot?" Huang Anliang said.
On the surface, he answered respectfully, but in his heart, he greeted all the eighteen generations of Xiao Chen.
A wooden chair can automatically heat up? This is something that even a three-year-old child knows is impossible. You still have to ask me again.
"Oh." Xiao Chen lowered his head and looked at the chair under him, "This chair is so exquisite, it must be a distinguished guest who is qualified to sit on it, right?"
"Yes, when general guards discuss military affairs, all those thousands of households sit at the bottom," Huang Anliang said.
"Well, then you won't be angry that I accidentally sat on this chair today, right?" As he said that, Xiao Chen made a gesture to stand up.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry." Huang Anliang hurriedly put a smile on his face: "Your Excellency represents Dongchang, the emperor, and is extremely noble. It is an honor for me to sit here, how dare I be angry."
There was a bright smile on his face, but he was very angry in his heart.
If it weren't for your pretentiousness and the emperor's support, I would have chopped you alive today.
I am a dignified military attache of the third rank of the imperial court, responsible for the war and defense of one side. How can I be in the mood to chat with you about some mindless things that cannot be done with eight poles?
"In that case, Dongchang is a person close to the emperor and is considered an honored guest. Jinyiwei is also a person close to the emperor. When you come here, shouldn't you sit here?" Xiao Chen smiled, looking harmless and chatting.
To Huang Anliang.
Hearing the words "Jinyiwei", Huang An's heart skipped a beat, and the panic in his eyes flashed away.
"Jin Yiwei? Of course it is as noble as Dongchang. However, my Yanqing Wei Temple is small and remote. How can there be an adult from Jin Yiwei coming to admire it?"
"No, no, no." Xiao Chen shook his head, "How can Mr. Huang lie at his age? Your son-in-law told me that when he came to your place a few days ago, he happened to see a figure dressed as a royal guard. From here
He got up from his seat and left."
"Impossible." Huang Anliang shouted urgently.
It seemed that he felt that he was a little out of control, and he quickly calmed down his tone: "He must have misunderstood. We were discussing military affairs that day. How could there be anyone else in this position?"
I couldn't help but sneer twice in my heart, and wanted to deceive me. Will the Jinyi guards who come in and out of my place wear their own uniforms and walk through the market?
"How is that possible? You just said that this is a wooden chair. How could it heat up automatically? I suspected that he was talking nonsense. He told me that the chair surface was warm and even the armrests were warm. This is what you
Are you lying to me, or is your son-in-law lying to me?"
Xiao Chen stretched his neck out and looked at Huang Anliang like a fool.
"Because of the incident in Shunyi County, he came all the way in a hurry. It's probably because it's cold outside and he feels the wrong way."
For Huang Anliang, as long as there is no direct evidence, he will never admit these myths.
As the number one executioner of Dongchang, this person pretended to be an idiot and acted foolishly because he just wanted to take advantage of his not paying attention and accidentally fall into his trap.
Although I have never tried this trick before, I have seen it before.
After straightening his body, Huang Anliang was mentally calculating how to deal with the following problems skillfully.
"Master Huang, others say that I am thoughtful, do you believe it?" Xiao Chen said.
"Haha, Dongchang, where are the simple people?"
"So, do you believe it? If you believe it, it means that I am really a thoughtful person. In other words, when I mentioned Jin Yiwei just now, I saw a flash of panic in your eyes. I was right.
Already?"
"Panic? Really panic. Today, my subordinates collided with the master of Dongchang. I don't know how to recover for a while."
Huang Anliang took a deep breath and tried hard to calm down his mood.
This person is really awesome, every word he says is a trap. Every trap will break the calmness in his heart.
"Master Huang just said that when your son-in-law came, you were discussing military affairs?" Xiao Chen asked again, staring into the other person's eyes.
"Yes, we are discussing military affairs."
"That means there were other generals in the camp at that time?"
Huang An's conscience tightened. What kind of trouble is this person planning to do?
"There are several Qianhu who are stationed a little further away, discussing military affairs together."
"Where are they stationed? Can you send them here? Since one of you and your son-in-law said that there is a guard in uniform, and the other said that there is no one, then you two have nothing to say. I want to ask the other people present, who are you two?
You're lying." Xiao Chen said calmly.
Hearing this, Huang Anliang began to sweat in small drops on his forehead.
If several Qianhu were taken away and tortured, the whole thing would be exposed to the world.
"They are stationed far away and won't be able to come back for a while," Huang Anliang said.
Xiao Chen smiled softly: "It doesn't matter, I can wait. I don't like others to lie. If your son-in-law is honest and frank, I am ready to release him."
"Okay, I'll go now and ask the messenger to recall them." With that, Huang Anliang turned around.
"Wait." Xiao Chen stood up, walked to Huang Anliang, raised his right hand, and touched his forehead.
"Are you sick? It's not too hot in this camp, so why are you sweating?"
Huang Anliang's body trembled: "This is, this is the armor on my subordinate. It's a bit too heavy. I feel a little tired after wearing it for a long time."
"Tired? No way. This is your special armor. It relies on this armor to withstand the enemy's bullets. Back then, you wore it to take the enemy leader's head. You will feel tired after standing here for a while today.
?”
"Maybe, maybe my subordinate is old." Huang Anliang stammered.
"That's right, you are not young this year. People of your age have already stayed at home to take care of themselves, but you still have to wear armor and go into battle, guard one side, and die with all your might."
Slowly turning around, Xiao Chen said again: "If I have a chance to meet the emperor later, I will definitely fight for you. Even wearing armor makes me sweat, and I won't let you go home to retire. This is obviously forcing someone to do something difficult for you.
.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang Anliang made a "pop" sound and fell to his knees.
"I volunteer to serve as the commander of the Yanqing Guard. I can serve the country for a few more years."
Xiao Chen turned around hurriedly: "Oh, why are you kneeling down? Get up." He stretched out his hand to pull him, "I'm not the emperor, I'm just talking casually, why do you take it seriously?"
Staring at the heavy sweat on Huang Anliang's forehead: "I'm so weak now, but I still insist that I can still work for a few more years. Come on, I'm not an outsider, so I took off my armor."
As he spoke, he exerted force with his right hand and tore off the armor from Huang Anliang's body.
The moment the armor landed, a small bag wrapped in white paper landed on the ground one step ahead.
When Huang Anliang saw this, he reached out to grab it.
But Xiao Chen was faster than him and had already taken the lead and grabbed the paper bag in his hand.
"Master Huang, what is this?" The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth turned up slightly, and his entire lips turned into an arc.
"Actually, the sweating on the body is because this subordinate is ill. And this paper bag is a medicine prescribed by the doctor in the capital for internal use. Please return it to the subordinate." After saying this, he extended his hand to Xiao Chen.
Take action.
Not only did Xiao Chen not give it, he also put the paper bag into his waist: "What a quack doctor, I'm still sweating from the cold after taking the medicine. Otherwise, Mr. Huang, follow me to the capital and ask the imperial doctor in the palace to
Give you a good diagnosis?"
"No, no, no, how dare you trouble your lord. This is an old problem of mine, I just need to take it easy." Huang Anliang hurriedly refused.
If I leave you easily today, I'm afraid my life will be in your hands.
Since you don't go out of your way to catch me, I will just waste my time with you shamelessly.
Once you give me a chance to get rid of the insiders in Yanqing Wei, I will never talk to you with a smiling face like this even if I die.
"Okay, please slow down. Let's continue the topic we just talked about. Call all the Qianhu who were here at the time." Xiao Chen put away his smile and his face became extremely serious.
"Yes, my subordinates will go and give orders to the messengers."
"Wait a minute, I'll call the messenger in for you and give the order here." Xiao Chen walked to the door and lifted the heavy tent curtain.
"Where are the messengers from Yanqing Guard?"
Outside the camp, a young soldier in tights rushed over: "Come back, sir, my subordinates are here."
"Come in, my lord, you have orders to pass on."
Entering the camp, the ordering soldier respectfully hugged Huang Anliang and said, "Sir!"
"Send the order and order Sun Qianhu, Zhao Qianhu, Lan Qianhu, and Ouyang Qianhu to return to camp quickly."
"Yes." The messenger replied simply and neatly. He put down his hands, but did not leave.
Huang Anliang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why don't you go quickly?"
