Early the next morning, Su Jin, who was suffering from a hangover, was woken up by Xiao Sui'er. When he saw that it was almost Chen time, he would be late to go to school. Su Jin hurriedly washed up and asked: "Brother Jiefu
Where are they? Where is Miss Yan?"
Xiao Sui'er laughed and said: "Young Master is drunk and confused. Those young masters went back to the academy after listening to sister Rou Niang's music last night. Didn't you send Miss Yan out of South Street in person? Why did you just send them all out?
forget."
Su Jin patted his forehead and then remembered what happened last night. Last night, when his "Shui Tiao Song Tou" came out, everyone cheered. Su Jin originally planned to ask each of them to sing a song, but Zhu Yu was in front, and Wang Anshi
Wei Songhe and others were unwilling to show their shame no matter what.
Sister Rouniang and Huanniang took the initiative to sing "Shui Tiao Ge Tou" for everyone to enjoy, so the drunken Su Jin accidentally sang the tune of "When Will the Bright Moon Come" sung by a later singer named Teresa Teng?
I came over with a pirated copy and insisted on teaching Rou Niang. Fortunately, this song is classical and beautiful, and it is not very obtrusive. The melody is also touching. Everyone admired Su Jin and looked at Su Jin with admiration. They didn't expect that this person actually knew the music. In fact,
It's a mystery.
Su Jin came out of the yard and saw the four major guards and five or six men practicing kicking, lifting stone locks, and boxing in a corner of the yard. He couldn't help but feel strange. He waved to Wang Chao and asked, "Who are those people?"
Wang Chao blinked his eyes and said, "How could you forget, Mr. Young Master, that last night you and Yan Dong's family chatted for a while in the study. When they went out, Yan Dong's family asked Lao Niu and the others to stay and listen to your orders, but now they come to ask.
"
Su Jin suddenly woke up and remembered that last night he and Yan Biyun told the whole story about Xishan. Unexpectedly, Yan Biyun did not blame him for being troublesome, but said: "If you encounter such a thing, with your temper, you will definitely
You can't back down. If you stand up, it won't be you."
Only then did Su Jin understand that Yan Biyun actually didn't blame him for falling out with Prince Teng at all. Instead, there was a sense of joy on his face. Su Jin understood that Yan Biyun hoped that he would be a responsible person. He had already gotten involved with Prince Teng the previous time.
It made her look down on herself. This time, her behavior made her realize once again that Su Jin was not a coward, and there was nothing she didn't like in her heart. No woman would want the person she likes to be timid and heartless, let alone
This is what attracted Yan Biyun to Su Jin.
Later, Yan Biyun proposed to keep a few of her companions to prepare for possible revenge. At the same time, she also told Su Jin that if something unexpected happened, she must not act recklessly. She should avoid the edge first. She immediately wrote a book and went to the capital to prepare the book.
All things have been reported to my uncle, and I believe that Yan Shu will naturally have a countermeasure.
Of course, Su Jin would not refuse such a request. He needed help, otherwise he would not be able to cope with King Teng's challenge, so the five companions stayed at Su's house to listen. The number of nursing staff in Su's house increased to nine, plus the big and round ones.
The small pillar could withstand Prince Teng's sneak attack no matter what.
Of course, if King Teng mobilized a large number of people to fight hard at all costs, he would naturally not be able to stop him. However, Su Jin judged that King Teng was not that stupid. The incident of more than 30 people that night had already caused a storm in the city.
, although the Yamen kept it secret, the incident had obviously alarmed the Song Army camp stationed in Yingtian Mansion on Jingdong Road.
There are two sides of the Forbidden Army stationed in Yingtian Mansion, called "Gui De Army". Generally speaking, the local garrison is the Xiang Army, and the Forbidden Army is nominally an army to protect the safety of the emperor and the capital. However, because of its special status, Yingtian Mansion is a member of the Zhao and Song Dynasties.
It was a place of prosperity, so there were also five thousand imperial troops stationed on both sides, working together with the local Xiang troops to defend Yingtian Mansion.
The Xiang army in Yingtianfu is under the jurisdiction of the local governor on Jingdong Road, but the "Guide Army" of the Forbidden Army here is different. It is deployed and managed by military officers directly appointed by the imperial court. Except for daily military activities, it is controlled by the local government.
The chief mobilized the Xiang army to calm the foreign affairs. If he wanted to influence the actions of the Imperial Army, he had to obtain an order from the Imperial Privy Council.
Li Gang, the commander of the Guide Army's capital deployment, was directly appointed by the imperial court as the leading general of the Yingtian camp of the Guide Army. He was an upright person with a serious attitude towards the whole army. He never had much contact with Tang Jie, Zhao Zongdan and others, except with the imperial court.
In addition to the strict order that the garrison commander should not have any close relationship with the local chief executive, Li Gang himself was also a thorn in the side, a kind of unreasonable person, so even though Teng Wang Tang Jie and others tried their best to win over him, he still maintained relations with them.
at a certain distance.
Of course, Li Gang knew about the mass murder in the city in early August. He once lashed out at the daily meeting of Yingtian Mansion and criticized the Nancheng garrison for dereliction of duty. It was a great shame and humiliation to be so close to the city gate and allow thieves to run amok under his nose; Tang Jie
Naturally, she didn't want to fall out with him, but she just reasoned that it was normal for the thief to be highly skilled in martial arts and his whereabouts were secretive, so he couldn't come to his rescue in time.
Li Gang didn't take it seriously. On the second day, he found a witness and gave a rough summary of what happened that night. Unfortunately, the witness didn't dare to take a closer look. He just leaned by the window and listened to the sound of swords and swords for more than an hour;
Li Gang refused. For more than an hour, the sound of swords was heard even by the people who lived a few streets away. They said it was the thieves who came and went. How could they believe this?
Tang Jie was naturally embarrassed, but he absolutely could not back down on this matter, and there was no way out. Once he backed away, he would pull Prince Teng out. Then Prince Teng would be unlucky, and his black hat would no longer be on his head.
The head is gone, and the black gauze hat is even gone.
Tang Jie was very clever. On the second day, the witness suddenly changed his story. Li Gang knew that there was something fishy, but he could do nothing. In the end, in the name of strengthening prevention, he dispatched a total of 500 people from five capitals to four cities to strengthen night patrols.
law and order.
Tang Jie couldn't refuse. Firstly, public security matters were the common responsibility of Tianfu Yamen and the capital, and it was Li Gang's duty to strengthen public security. Secondly, if he refused, he would grant Li Gang excuses. Li Gang, a fool, might report to the Privy Council.
How to petition? Although the Privy Council is the highest military department and the real jurisdiction over local government affairs is the Political Affairs Hall, the Privy Council cannot be offended. If it is determined to send someone to investigate, it will definitely reveal the truth; so Tang Jie can only pinch his nose and keep silent.
The default is to make a sound.
Although Su Jin didn't know about these twists and turns, judging from the atmosphere in the city and the ten-man soldiers patrolling the streets and alleys, the security in the city had indeed been strengthened; this was Su Jin's judgment that Prince Teng and the others
It is not necessary to mobilize a large number of people to enforce the basis.
Su Jin didn't dare to take it lightly. Who knew this was not just for show? Su Jin didn't know who accepted those soldiers. If they were Tang Jie's soldiers, they would be just decoration, so strengthening manpower is the top priority.
.
A few days passed without any disturbance. Su Jin, Wang Anshi and others gathered together to analyze the situation. Zhao Zongdan lost his face so much, but he knocked out his teeth and swallowed it. This is a bit unreasonable. Could it be?
Is he really the legendary wise king?
Su Jin firmly refuted this idea. The more he thought about it in the past few days, the more he felt that Prince Teng was not simple. He was not just greedy for money, but had an agenda. How could such a person give up? Besides, he also threatened to
Knowing their secrets, it's strange that Zhao Zongdan could let these people go.
…
While Su Jin and others were racking their brains to speculate and take precautions, Teng Wang Zhao Zongdan was furious in the study. This time, there was a large group of people standing below, including Tang Jie, the prefect of Yingtian Prefecture, Qin Fei and the other four people.
The city's four stewards also bowed their heads to receive the training.
"You are all a bunch of drunken ricebags! You are useless! For several days, you have not found a chance to strike. Those unscrupulous people have insulted me. Do you want to just let them enjoy themselves? You are all a loser, and you have so many people under your command.
, How come you can't even handle this little thing? It's not like I'm asking you to attack the city and take out the stronghold; I'm so angry at this king!"
Qin Feizhan said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Su Jin, a treacherous man, lives in seclusion and his home is heavily guarded. His men found out that there are at least a dozen guard thugs in his house. We really have no chance to attack him; we can't do it in broad daylight."
Then take action."
"Idiot, a dozen people? How many people do you have? There are at least five hundred people available in the four cities. How can a mere dozen people be so scared that they wet their pants?" Zhao Zongdan shouted angrily.
"Your Majesty, this matter cannot be handled with just a large number of people. The Forbidden Army patrols the city day and night. If we force it, wouldn't we be asking for trouble? Those soldiers are all deployed Forbidden Army. Master Tang should know this.
Once the Imperial Army is alerted, no matter how many men you have, it will be useless." Qin Fei argued aggrievedly.
Tang Jie hurriedly raised his hands and said: "Your Majesty, what you said is the truth. Li Gang, a rotten grandson, wants to interfere in the security of the city, and even the lower officials can't stop him. I have already told you about this matter, and force is not a good idea."
Prince Teng frowned and gasped: "What should I do? You guys in the city can't do it. Those few huddle in the academy every day, let alone go to the academy to take action. Let them laugh at me, right? I, the king.
If we can't even cure these unruly people, how can we talk about big things? I hate that I can't move forward alone without the help of sleeping dragons and phoenixes."
Tang Jie looked embarrassed and cursed in his heart: Damn, aren't you pointing your nose at me and saying I'm incompetent? Do you think you are Liu Bei?
Naturally, he didn't dare to say anything. After thinking about it carefully, he came up with an idea and whispered in Prince Teng's ear: "My lord, I have a clever plan. I can definitely get rid of these unruly people and kill two birds with one stone. Maybe I will be punished."
The court’s praises and awards are also unknown.”
Prince Teng looked sideways and teased: "How could Mr. Tang have such a good plan? Don't just talk nonsense just to make me happy. I am not in the mood to listen to your jokes."
Tang Jie suppressed the urge to curse and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, please listen to me. Since being tough won't work for a while, we might as well be soft. Aren't they all studying in the academy? Then Cao Min, the professor of the academy, and I are
For some friendships, as long as you order them to do this and this... and this and this, are you still afraid that they won't just wait for death?"
Listening to Tang Jie's whisper in his ear, Prince Teng gradually relaxed his brows, slapped his thigh and praised: "What a great plan. Mr. Tang is really a sleeping dragon among men. With Mr. Tang taking care of my worries, my great undertakings will surely succeed.
I will leave the matter to you, and if you need my help, please let me know."
Tang Jie rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "You have to trouble the prince, I will handle it now." dd
