There were shouts of death, explosions, and gunshots outside. In the Chen family compound, houses collapsed and smoke filled the air.
Old Mrs. Chen shivered and got up from the bed. The two beautiful maids who were warming the bed were so frightened that they huddled naked at the foot of the bed and shivered.
"Someone is coming, someone is coming"
A servant stumbled open the door and ran in. Outside the door opened behind him, flames shot up into the sky, and broken bricks and tiles flew all over the sky.
Old Mrs. Chen was dumbfounded. His mansion had turned into a battlefield overnight.
"What the hell is going on!" the old man asked roaringly.
"Old Master, it's not good, Dongchang's fanzi came in with the Jin Yiwei."
"Nonsense, this is Tianjin, not the capital, so what kind of royal guards are there?"
Bang! There was a gunshot, and the guard fell down.
He twitched on the ground for a while and became motionless.
Mo Zui imitated Yang Fan's signature move, blew the gun smoke from the muzzle with his mouth, and said: "No need to ask, Dongchang is handling the case, everyone squats on the ground with their heads in their hands."
"I am a Jinshi. Do you have a driving license from the Ministry of Punishment? How dare you enter my home without a driving license from the Ministry of Punishment. I am going to the Supervisory Court to sue you and impeach you for breaking into a private house."
Mo Zui felt irritated after hearing this. In Zhang Gada's words, this is an old man who still doesn't understand the situation, and he has no intention of talking nonsense to him.
Just shoot the old man in the bun.
boom!
The old man had never seen such a fierce gangster in his life. His bun was scattered, and his hairpin was broken and flew away to no one knows where.
His hair suddenly became disheveled.
He was stunned for a moment, and then howled like a slaughtered pig.
"Ah!, don't kill me, don't kill me"
The old man squatted on the ground and held his head in his hands.
Mo Zhui glanced at the two naked women at the foot of the bed and said: "Put on all your clothes and stay in this room, waiting for interrogation. Don't run around, the bandits are being suppressed outside. This is a treasonous plot."
The case involves the Yi tribe."
Hearing Mo Zhui's words, Mr. Chen trembled. He had planned everything before, but he did this in secret. After paying Qian Muzhai, no one knew about it. He didn't expect the soldiers to arrive so soon. He immediately understood what the Chen family was doing.
Secondly, it cannot be separated no matter what.
For a moment, I started to tremble with fear.
I thought that His Majesty would think well of him even if he knew about it, but now it turns out that things are far from what he imagined.
He had never entered the Hanlin Academy in his life, which determined that he could not reach too high a height.
The outstanding new scholars are usually placed in the Hanlin Academy to work as secretaries next to the emperor.
The main purpose is to familiarize them with the central work process of the imperial court and the rules of the political game, to train them to be familiar with the national conditions and people's sentiments, and to accumulate contacts.
When you are almost done with training, you will be promoted to a local official.
This kind of official with Hanlin background is the first-class official, and he will enter the six departments when he returns to the central government.
The second-class officials are not as good as the Imperial Scholars, and it will be difficult for them to enter the core of power throughout their lives.
The third-level officials are those who become officials after being selected by the Ministry of Civil Affairs. They can generally only serve as county captains and officials in the county. It is difficult for them to hold a full-time job throughout their lives. Even if they do, they are county officials.
In the first category, there are very few prefects and above.
Therefore, there is an official motto in the Ming Dynasty, "If you are not a Jinshi, you will not be admitted to the Hanlin, and if you are not an Hanlin, you will not be admitted to the cabinet."
I have never worked in a central government, so my vision and abilities are far behind.
He has no idea how it works up there.
When Mr. Qian was awakened, there was already a pot of porridge outside.
The Three-Eyed Eagle opened the door and barged in, "Master, hurry up, Dongchang and Jinyiwei are coming. I don't know how many people are coming. It sounds like they are carrying general cannons. Brothers can't stand it anymore."
Qian Zigui put on his clothes in a panic, even without putting on his shoes, and ran out following the Three-Eyed Eagle.
The development of this matter was different from what he imagined. How did Wei Yu mobilize the Jinyiwei? Before coming, his uncle Qian Muzhai specifically told him that the commander of the Jinyiwei had already defected to the Donglin Party, so don't worry.
There are only two to three thousand people in Dongchang nationwide, and they are scattered in various places. The Beijing camp will not care about this matter. Dongchang's fans are not the army after all. There is nothing to worry about.
There are more than fifty of his own domestic slaves in the yard. This is a guarantee of his safety and someone he can absolutely rely on.
"Master, don't panic. The more urgent the situation, the more calm you need to be." An old man with gray hair said to him.
"Uncle Lin, what should we do now?" Qian Zigui's heart dropped when he saw this old family member.
This old man is the housekeeper left by his grandfather. He has always been calm and listened to him correctly.
He instantly had a backbone.
"Listening to such intensive gunfire, they are all elite soldiers. They are definitely not imperial guards. They are most likely border troops. It seems that Wei Wei has been prepared for a long time. Someone has leaked the news. We have fallen into a trap, but now
This is not the time to pursue this matter, so you need to leave quickly."
"Uncle Lin, how do we go? The front and back doors are probably blocked."
"I was walking last night and saw a dog hole on the east wall of the garden. I crawled out from there."
The group of people suddenly became happy and hurried straight to the east wall of the garden.
The three-eyed eagle was the first to get out. The outside was full of grass and drainage ditches. He looked around cautiously, but no one was around.
He quickly waved and asked Qian Zigui to crawl out first.
More than 50 people abandoned more than 3,000 bandits and walked quickly along the drainage ditch to escape for their lives.
At this time, Mo Zuo was grabbing a slave from his hometown and leading the way straight to Shufangzhai.
Bang, a soldier kicked open the door and rushed in. No one was inside.
Mo Zui walked to the front of the bed and reached out to touch the quilt. It was still hot and he didn't go far.
Where can I run?
The north and south are blocked, and the closest outer wall is the west wall.
"Chasing to the west."
Yang Fan and Xiao Niangpi finished their breakfast and sat on the top of the mountain looking at the battlefield below. Less than half an hour after the battle started, the gunfire began to fade away and finally stopped completely.
"That's it." Xiao Niangpi blinked her eyes and looked at Yang Fan and said.
"It's so new. How long will it last for such a ragtag group of people? Do you think they are slaves?"
"That's right, your group of people all survived the hand-to-hand fighting with the slaves in the Baihu Village of Rock Beach. Facing these bandits is just like chopping melons and vegetables." Xiao Niangpi nodded, thinking that they are really good soldiers.
It can only be practiced on the battlefield.

The eyesight of archers is much better than that of ordinary people. Generally, the eyesight of archers is better than that of ordinary people.
Yang Fan took out the telescope and looked at it, and said: "There is a young man in his twenties inside. I don't know if it is Qian Zigui. Hey, he actually got out from the dog hole in the east wall, and there are people drilling out.
Woolen cloth."
"Let me take a look, let me take a look." Xiao Niangpi grabbed the telescope and observed it carefully. This telescope was also something she was very jealous of. She had been trying hard to get it for a long time, but Yang Fan didn't agree to give it to her.
The main reason is that this is a high-tech product, with range measurement and night vision functions. Because of the huge technological gap, I spent a lot of gold on shipping costs. It was really painful, so I bought this one.
"Donkey Dan, you take a small group of cavalry to capture them and find out who they are," Yang Fan said.
"Here, the third team is following me." Donkey Dan immediately turned around and mounted his horse, and then the horse team rushed down the hillside.
A group of people gathered together. The old man saw that everyone had come out. He looked around and said: "Go around in a circle and run to the west of the town. There is a pier over there. Find a boat directly to Tianjin Acropolis. We are here.
The Grand Canal is safe."
A group of people emerged from the grass and ran quickly.
Then a group of cavalry appeared behind them.
"Uncle Lin, no, what should I do if there are cavalry?" Qian Zigui was so frightened that his legs went weak.
"Three-eyed Eagle, take the young master and leave quickly. The rest of the people will fight back with me and fight these cavalry." The old man did not hesitate to draw the long knife on his back, turned around and rushed like a cavalry.
"Go to the sword array and chop off their horses' legs."
These more than fifty people were all servants trained by the old man. They wore chainmail armor under their robes and carried shields and Miao knives on their backs.
Authentic Miao knives are all 1.6 meters long, and the handle held by both hands is 60 centimeters long. They can be used as spears and sabers.
The Three-Eyed Eagle and a few people took Qian Zigui and ran away.
Donkey Dan saw about fifty people rushing toward him on his horse. He immediately realized that there was a big fish among these people.
"Everyone stop and prepare the firecrackers." These people looked well-trained and carried shields on their backs. Donkey Dan saw through their intentions. These people knew skills such as rolling knives. The shields on their backs were to prevent being trampled by horses.
use.
Looking at their heavy steps, they probably wore chainmail or hoods underneath their clothes. Donkey Dan sneered, let’s see if your armor is strong, or I’m more powerful with my musket.
