Chapter 23 The Daughter of Guiliang, Minister of War
September 15th, early morning.
Li Zhen took Huang Shihai out of the camp and waited at the entrance of the camp.
Qishan set out to return to Beijing, and Li Zhen went north together. After Huang Shihai learned the news, as the person who protected Li Zhen, he also went north to Beijing. Although Huang Hu also wanted to go to Beijing, he still needed someone to take charge of the overall situation in the military camp, so Huang Hu
Having to stay, only Huang Shihai accompanied Li Zhen.
Huang Shihai said: "Sir, Qi Shan is here, and that fellow He Ming is also here."
Li Zhen looked up and found that He Ming was really following Qi Shan, with more than a hundred soldiers. He Ming had a lower official position than Wu Qigong, but he followed Qi Shan northward, which shows that he was also trusted by Qi Shan.
When he thought of this, Li Zhen felt a little gloomy in his heart.
He Ming is like a shit stirrer, very annoying.
Qishan walked in front, neatly dressed.
This time, Qishan's official hat was adorned with a red glass bead, and his official uniform had a square pattern with a crane embroidered on it. He also wore court beads, making him look like a first-class official of the day.
When Li Zhen looked at Qishan's dress, what he thought of was not the majesty, but the dress of zombies in later movies, which was exactly the same.
Li Zhen walked over, bowed and said, "I have met you, sir."
Qi Shan nodded and said, "Let's go back to Beijing."
After the group left the Jiangbei Camp, Li Zhen, Huang Shihai and He Ming all rode on horseback, while Qi Shan sat in a carriage, protected by more than a hundred soldiers.
After leaving Jiangbei Camp, we will enter Shandong and Zhili, and finally return to the capital.
Tai'an Prefecture is located in the central part of Shandong Province. It is named after Mount Tai. Its name is taken from "Taishan An is safe all over the world", hence the name Tai'an. Within Tai'an Prefecture, there is Mount Tai, a world-famous mountain.
Mount Tai is known as the first of the "Five Mountains" and has the reputation of "the best mountain in the world", attracting countless tourists.
Especially emperors throughout the ages have a special liking for Mount Tai and want to enshrine Mount Tai. Now in September, the weather is cool and the scenery is pleasant. When Qishan passed by Mount Tai, he rested there for a day and took a rough tour of Mount Tai.
I watched the scenery such as the peaks in the sun, and the pines and cypresses of Mount Tai, and finally left reluctantly.
After leaving Mount Tai, Qishan and his party continued northward.
Since I was delayed for a day in Mount Tai, my speed on the road was slightly accelerated.
It was three o'clock in the morning, and the sun was so hot that it made people panic. Although Qi Shan was in a hurry, he was considerate of the accompanying soldiers and ordered them to rest. Qi Shan sat in the carriage and ordered: "Li Zhen, come inside the carriage."
Li Zhen got off his horse and hurriedly got into the carriage.
Seeing Li Zhen being so proud, He Ming's eyes flashed with malice. Without Li Zhen, Wu Qigong would not have been able to win the battle and would not have been promoted. Without Li Zhen, he would have been the one who entered the carriage.
Everything is Li Zhen's fault.
He Ming's eyes were rolling, his eyes were cold, and he was thinking about how to deal with Li Zhen.
In the carriage, Li Zhen asked: "Sir, what are your orders?"
Qishan said: "The sun is shining on me, so I want you to come in and have a rest."
It has to be said that Qi Shan relied heavily on Li Zhen and kept wooing him. He even regarded Li Zhen as a confidant, which made Li Zhen feel that the old guy was really good to him.
Li Zhen said with emotion: "Your Excellency, you are as caring about your general as you are your reborn parents."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhen felt goosebumps all over his body. Qi Shan smiled happily after hearing this, and his wrinkled cheeks stretched out, revealing a satisfied smile.
"Bold, who are you? How dare you attack officers and soldiers!"
Suddenly, He Ming's angry shouts came from outside the carriage.
When Li Zhen heard this, his nerves immediately tensed up, and he clasped his fists and said, "My lord, please wait in the carriage for a moment. I will go and ask what happened, and then report to my lord."
Qi Shan nodded and said: "Go."
Li Zhen got off the carriage and looked up.
Where he saw it, a burly and muscular man was arguing with He Ming.
The two sides disagreed, so He Ming directly pulled out the steel knife from his waist and made a move to chop. He Ming's martial arts skills were mediocre, but he was a strong and brave man. He swayed his body and avoided the steel knife. His right hand reached out like lightning and grabbed He Ming's wrist.
The man exerted force on his right wrist. He Ming screamed and the steel knife fell to the ground. Then the man dragged He Ming inside.
"Get out of the way, get out of my way!"
When the man saw Li Zhen approaching, he threw He Ming away and said in a deep voice: "Are you going to block the road?"
Li Zhen shook his head and said, "General He, let me ask about the situation."
He Ming stared at the man resentfully, was silent for a long time, and said angrily: "Li Zhen, this guy is making arrogant remarks and actually said that he is the bodyguard of Guiliang, the Minister of War. Look at his clothes. His clothes are in tatters.
There are also stains of blood, which looks a bit like the guard of the Minister of War. Besides, Sir Guiliang is in Beijing, not Shandong. I think this guy is an assassin, intending to kill you."
Li Zhen frowned and said, "General He, why do you decide for me without permission?"
He Ming opened his mouth to retort, but when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.
He Ming had no eyesight, but Li Zhen saw that the person in front of him was a practicing practitioner.
Even though the man's martial arts skills were not as good as Huang Shihai's, they were not too bad. He stared at the man in front of him and asked, "Hero, you are Lord Guiliang's bodyguard. Do you have any credentials?"
The man scratched his head and said anxiously: "The incident happened suddenly and there is no evidence!" Immediately, the man said again: "My name is Gurdu, I am really Lord Guiliang's guard. Who is the Lord in the carriage? I want to go immediately
meet him."
The tone was domineering, showing a condescending attitude.
Li Zhen did not refuse, nodded and said: "You come with me and report the matter to your Excellency in person. I tell you, my Lord is Qi Shan, the imperial envoy of Jiangbei Camp. This time, he returned to Beijing to report on his duties under the emperor's order. What can I do for you?
Speak directly to the adults." As he spoke, Li Zhen stared at Gurdu carefully, but he was wary in his heart.
When Guldu heard this, his face showed a look of joy.
When He Ming saw Li Zhen taking the decision without permission, he shouted: "If this person is an assassin, can you afford it?"
Guldu glared at He Ming fiercely, with a strong murderous intent exuding from his body.
Li Zhen said in a deep voice: "General He, don't worry, I believe Gurdu is not an assassin." After that, Li Zhen took Gurdu to Qishan's carriage. Li Zhen still kept a cautious eye, and he stood
Next to the carriage, facing Qishan, Guldu stood behind him, with Huang Shihai beside him.
Even if Guldu had different intentions, it would be difficult for him to succeed.
Gurdu clasped his fists and said: "Lord Qishan, this servant is the escort of Lord Guiliang, Minister of the Ministry of War. My eighth lady was visiting Mount Tai and was attacked by bandits on the way back to Beijing. Please save me."
Qi Shan raised the curtain with a swipe and asked hurriedly: "Guldu, where is your lady?"
Gurdu said: "We are three miles away, please help me.
When Qi Shan heard that Guiliang's daughter had been attacked, he felt secretly happy, and even thought that Li Zhen was his lucky star. Li Zhen defeated the bandits who attacked the Jiangbei camp, and he received a commendation from Xianfeng; Li Zhen went to Nanjing as an envoy, and he received
He bought one hundred thousand taels of silver; now because of Li Zhen, he has another chance to have a relationship with Guiliang.
Qishan immediately understood the stakes and ordered without hesitation: "Li Zhen, take all the soldiers and Guldu to rescue people immediately."
He Ming broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly said: "Sir, the last general will also go to save people."
At this time, He Ming's body was shaking, and he knew that he had done something wrong.
Li Zhen got on Qishan's carriage. He Ming was in a bad mood and was rude when he met Gurdu. In addition, Gurdu did not say that Guiliang's daughter was attacked, but just insisted on seeing Qishan, so
He Ming and Gurdu had a dispute. Now that He Ming learned about the situation, he regretted it so much that his intestines were blue.
Qishan knew that Gurdu hated He Ming and was afraid that He Ming would do something bad, so he shouted: "He Ming stays!"
He Ming was heartbroken and prayed that Guldu would not care about what happened just now.
Li Zhen glanced at the eager Gurdu and said: "Sir, I will lead the troops to rescue people. We only need fifty soldiers. The remaining soldiers will stay to protect your safety." After a pause, Li Zhen
He looked at Huang Shihai and ordered: "Shihai, please protect the safety of my lord. You are not allowed to leave the carriage more than ten feet away."
Huang Shihai was reluctant, but he could only agree.
Hearing this, Qi Shan sighed that Li Zhen was thoughtful. Guiliang's daughter encountered bandits on the way. If he sent all his soldiers and was attacked, he would definitely be in danger. Li Zhen left Huang Shihai to protect him.
, and dozens of soldiers, enough to ensure his safety.
Qishan thought of this and became even more satisfied with Li Zhen.
Li Zhen continued: "Guldu, let's go first and let the soldiers follow behind."
Guldu looked at Li Zhen suspiciously, but still agreed. The two rode horses and took the lead, followed by fifty soldiers. Li Zhen knew that he was going to fight, and he held a loaded sniper rifle in his right hand and hung it on his waist.
A steel knife can be used for fighting at close range or shooting at long distances.
"Da da!!"
The sound of horse hooves sounded, and the two people quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.
