There was an immediate silence in the arena.
Lin Mang's expression was stern, and there was an evil spirit in his body.
No matter why the Lord Qianhu appointed him to be the leader.
But he knows one thing, even if he refuses this matter today, these people will feel dissatisfied with him in their hearts.
In the following journey, he didn't want any more bullshit to happen, and he didn't want to succumb to others.
That being the case, it would be better to take this seat directly, besides, the person who is the leader must have more meritorious deeds in the end than ordinary people.
Lin Mang looked at the crowd, and said coldly: "If you are not convinced, you can stand up, and Lin is willing to take over."
Most of the people present were the general flag and the small flag, so he naturally didn't need to be polite.
Yao Tingquan stood aside, looking at Lin Mang with great interest, with a hint of appreciation in his expression.
In this Thousand Households House, there was nothing he didn't know, and he even knew everything about the entire Dongchang City like the back of his hand.
As Jinyiwei Qianhu, if he doesn't even have this ability, then he should really take the blame and resign.
Of course, the reason why he paid so much attention was more because of Chen Tiankui's letter.
The guy mentioned this child many times in the letter, and he did not shy away from the meaning of valuing it. This seat was also mentioned in his letter.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here on purpose today, he just wanted to meet this young man who could be valued by Chen Tiankui.
When I saw it today, I was indeed somewhat domineering and decisive.
The faces of everyone in the arena were gloomy, and their eyes were even more unkind.
Although the official position is the same, but for such a young junior to yell in front of his face, if it wasn't for Lin Mang's current reputation, they were quite afraid, and they would have taken action at this moment.
At this moment, the young man who spoke earlier in the crowd stood up.
Yang Qingzhi looked at Qianhu Yao Tingquan, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, I dare you to ask Lin Zongqi for advice."
Yao Tingquan narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Yang Qingzhi indifferently.
He naturally knew that this person, the General Banner of the Hundred Households in Beicheng, was the nephew of the prefect Yang Hongnian.
The Baihu Office of Beicheng Baihu will be transferred in one year, and the position of Baihu will be vacant soon.
Now I don't know how many people are staring at this seat. At the beginning, Yang Hongnian went around and transferred this nephew to Beicheng for the seat of Baihu.
Lin Mang had been quietly paying attention to Yao Tingquan's expression, and after seeing the coldness in his eyes, he smiled imperceptibly.
Yao Tingquan turned his head to look at Lin Mang, and said calmly, "Lin Mang, since that's the case, you should compete with Yang Zongqi."
"Remember, click as far as you can, and don't hurt your life."
Lin Mang smiled slightly: "Of order."
The crowd quickly set aside a venue for the two of them.
Yang Qingzhi looked at Lin Mang coldly, pulled out the Xiuchun knife, and said coldly, "Draw out the knife."
He has received a letter. Yesterday, Lin Mang actually rejected his cousin's invitation.
Today's action is to teach this person a lesson, and secondly, he really wants to take the position of the person in charge of this mission.
In one year, Beicheng Baihu will be transferred, and there are many people staring at this position. Even if there is an uncle in charge, there is no guarantee that it will be safe, so he must accumulate enough merits.
As for this person, he can only be a stepping stone on his way forward.
It's a pity that he couldn't be beheaded!
At this time, Lin Mang was smiling, and with his delicate face, he looked very sunny.
But the next moment, it was as cold as ice.
"Chong!"
Suddenly there was a long sound of gold and iron.
fast!
A flash of knife light that was so fast to the extreme flew past.
Before everyone could see clearly, Lin Mang had put the knife into its sheath, and a few drops of blood were dripping on the ground.
Almost instantly, Yang Qingzhi uttered a scream, and the right arm holding the knife flew out, spraying blood.
Yang Qingzhi stretched out his hand and counted on the broken arm, his face was full of anger, but there was a trace of deep fear in his eyes.
Lin Mang looked indifferently, looked around everyone, and said coldly: "Is there anyone else who wants to compete?"
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts, and they were even more terrified.
I heard that Yang Qingzhi had already advanced to the late Xiantian stage, yet he never took the knife?
Subconsciously looking at Qianhu Yao Tingquan at the side, he found that Qianhu was actually smiling at this time.
At this moment, everyone realized why Lin Mang was appointed by Lord Qianhu.
Shady!
This is definitely shady!
Looking at Yang Qingzhi not far away, there was a hint of pity in his expression.
With a broken arm, even if he can still keep the position of the general banner, he will not be able to have a hundred households in the future.
Yao Tingquan waved his hand, and the two guards behind him immediately led Yang Qingzhi away.
Yao Tingquan said in a deep voice, "In this case, Lin Mang will be fully responsible for the escort mission."
Everyone cupped their hands and said: "Obey!"
Yao Tingquan reached out to take an album from his subordinate behind him, and handed it to Lin Mang.
"This is the list and portraits of all the beautiful girls sent to the capital this time. There are 24 in total. There must be no mistakes."
Lin Mang clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, my lord, I will escort you to Beijing safely."
"Yeah." Yao Tingquan nodded slightly, then suddenly reached out and patted Lin Mang's shoulder, telling him, "You should put your own life first."
After speaking, he turned around and left with everyone behind him.
Lin Mang froze in place.
They should be meeting for the first time, right?
But the attitude of this Qianhu lord makes people a little uncertain.
Everyone watched quietly, and at this moment, they became more and more certain in their hearts that Lin Mang must have something to do with Lord Qianhu.
They haven't heard of which general banner can be treated like this.
Lin Mang thought for a while, but still couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.
Lin Mang turned to look at the crowd, and said directly: "Everyone, let's go!"
Everyone immediately responded with a voice, and their attitude was much more respectful.
……
The gate of Qianhusuo opened slowly, and 24 Jinyiwei rode out on horseback, heading towards the gate of the east city.
In addition to the 24 riders dispatched by hundreds of households in various places, there are also people from hundreds of households and thousands of households in the city. Among them, the lowest strength is in Houtian Jiuzhong.
In addition, Dongchang Mansion dispatched an elite army to accompany them, the number of them was about a hundred, but they were already waiting at the gate of the city.
After a while,
"Appreciate~"
Lin Mang pulled the reins, stopped the horse, and looked at the six carriages parked at the gate of the city.
The six carriages are all equipped with four good horses, guarded by sergeants on both sides, and accompanied by maids in costumes.
As for the convoy from Izumo, they were already waiting a mile outside the city.
A sergeant in black armor came over on horseback, clasped his fists and said, "Centurion Tang Chong, I have seen you!"
Lin Mang also returned a salute, and said, "Master Tang, I am fully responsible for this escort mission. I hope Master Tang can cooperate in the next journey."
Some things, he still likes to say on the bright side.
Tang Chong said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency, just give orders!"
A smile appeared on Lin Mang's face, he nodded slightly, raised his whip, and said, "Let's go!"
Chapter 42
It was cold and windy.
The midday sun was shining on the ground, and the convoy in the distance gradually came into everyone's sight.
Lin Mang pulled the reins, and squinted at the convoy from the Izumo Kingdom in front of him.
The size of the team is not very large, and there are only about a hundred people in total.
In addition, there was another Ming army of about [-] people escorting the convoy.
Everywhere the Izumo convoy went, the local prefecture would send personnel to escort them, and Dongchang Prefecture was no exception.
The only special thing is that Dongchang Mansion still needs to escort Xiunu into the palace this time.
Lin Mang waved his hand, signaling to move on, and the convoy behind him started to move again.
As the convoy approached the Izumo country, the former centurion Tang rushed forward and began handing over with the sergeants guarding the periphery.
In fact, Tang Chong and the others were more responsible for escorting the envoys from the Izumo Kingdom. This time they were really in charge of the beautiful women who had entered Beijing.
When he left, he received a secret letter from Qianhu Yao Tingquan.
According to the letter, this time, Princess Toshihide of the Izumo Kingdom was escorted to Beijing on the surface, but it was these beautiful girls who were actually escorted.
As for the real reason, obviously he could not know it, and it was not stated in the letter.
Soon, the sergeants guarding the periphery rode away, and the government army led by Tang Chong took over.
The convoy hit the road again.
……
It's getting dark.
There was light snow in the sky.
The convoy had already driven out of the boundaries of Dongchang City and arrived at a post station.
Tang Chong rode his horse and came, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, it's getting late, so we can only set up camp here temporarily. There is a post in front, where Xiu Nu can stay."
"In addition..." Tang Chong paused, and continued: "I have asked the envoys of the Izumo Kingdom, and they said that it is not convenient for their princess to get out of the carriage."
He always felt that this group of people was weird, and it was fine if the so-called princess didn't show up, and even the convoy didn't let outsiders get close.
"Don't worry about them." Lin Mang said lightly, "Follow me to the station in front."
Yao Tingquan specially sent a secret letter to tell it, which shows the importance of this mission, and he dare not be careless.
As for the Izumo country's convoy, if Karasuma was in the convoy, most people would not even be able to get close.
The two walked to the post station ahead, and Tang Chong stepped forward and knocked on the door.
An old postman walked out of it, bowed his body, saw two people outside the door, and hurriedly said: "I have seen two adults."
Lin Mang looked up and down at the station pawn, and asked, "Are there any vacancies in the station?"
The postman hurriedly said: "My lord, the rooms in the station are now unoccupied. There are two small courtyards and 42 rooms."
Lin Mang narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at the lantern in his hand, and asked, "Did you go out just now?"
"No." The postman shook his head in surprise and said, "The weather is cold, and no one has come here recently, so the humble staff go to bed early."
Lin Mang nodded.
But the next moment, he suddenly drew his sword.
A bright knife light flashed across the eyes of the postman.
The postman's eyes widened suddenly, and his body dodged backwards like a conditioned reflex.
The speed that erupted at that instant was by no means that of an ordinary old man, and the floor under him was crushed by his stepping on it.
