old grace

When everyone thought that Chen Qi would spend the winter in Qingzhou, Chen Qi quickly left the city with his troops and crushed them eastward.

Chen Qi himself is a very talented general, he rarely brings his advisers with him when he fights, and the huge staff team brought by Bai Zhifeng naturally stays in Qingzhou.Qingzhou is the accompanying capital of the Qin court. After hundreds of years of operation, it is far more prosperous and lively than other cities. More than a dozen military counselors who are in charge of the war do not work. They wander around the city of Qingzhou all day long. conflict.

Qingzhou has just arrived, and there are not many soldiers and horses left by Chen Qi to garrison Qingzhou. There are still Mr. Xiaolang and Bai Zhifeng living in the city. An Ying is always worried. Ever since Chen Qi left Qingzhou, An Ying has simply It's the disheveled man cleaning up the various factions in the city, who dare not sleep to death every night.

This group of counselors who stayed in Qingzhou for entertainment was different. They walked around the streets every day, watching plays, eating wine and sleeping with women.

Chen Qi ambushed the soldiers of the Hua family in Qingzhou outside the city. At the critical moment when he was plotting the capital of the Qin court, Chen Qi didn't want to keep prisoners at all. In order to easily occupy Qingzhou, nearly [-] soldiers and horses of the Hua family died there. wilderness.Most of these people are soldiers from Qingzhou, their parents, wives and children live in Qingzhou, and they are crying secretly.

Under such a turbulent undercurrent, An Ying was very worried about the chaos in Qingzhou. While patrolling the city every day, he used a sharp knife to kill all the young and strong who had resentment and intentions to make troubles. linger.

In this case, Qingzhou must have a curfew.

However, the group of advisers brought by Bai Zhifeng had stayed in a small place for a long time, and they were very envious of the "prosperity" of Qingzhou.

The music workshop in other palaces, the prostitute village in Qingzhou, you can't get out of Ruanrou Township, how can you tell the difference between day and night?Every night, the whole Qingzhou is deserted, only the sound of cold wind and blizzard is left. The gentlemen are still playing and singing with beauties in their arms. Wake up and take over the power of the world, lie drunk on the lap of a beauty, and when you meet soldiers patrolling the city, you will vomit all over your body.

The little soldiers patrolling the city didn't dare to offend the gentlemen who could speak in front of the lord, so they sent them home in a good voice, and finally saved the buttocks of this Mr. Walking Bird from freezing in the snowy night of the cold winter months.

Everyone who can't stand it has vanity. The younger and more vigorous the "Mr.", the more he likes to show his power and excellence.

These gentlemen broke through the ban every day, and called the soldiers patrolling the city to send them home every day.

According to An Ying's words, it is "using a strong man as a servant girl, making all kinds of jokes".

Not only do the soldiers patrolling the city send him home drunk and breaking the ban, but there are also many demands on the road. If the road is dark and he can't see it, he must light a torch to lead the way. I wanted to find him an ox cart for transportation, and on the way, I asked him when he was born and where his hometown was, and whether there were slang and pornographic songs in his hometown and how to sing them?

Chen Qi also had quite a few soldiers under his command, and he took many prisoners during the years of war. The number of soldiers with the Chen surname was diluted and scattered everywhere. Basically, they all achieved the position of small officers. There are more than a dozen people in charge, big and small.

There is such a soldier surnamed Chen in the army who is in charge of patrolling the city. With his status, of course there is no need to patrol the city in the middle of the night.

However, he was quite unlucky. In the jurisdiction he was in charge of, he met this group of "gentlemen" who liked to visit the Yulefang every day, who took getting drunk as fun, and would run wild every time.The little soldiers would come back to discuss when they were wronged, one day as a joke, two days as a joke, three days and four days passed, these gentlemen became more and more excessive, and Boss Chen was also angry.

You are the guests of the Lord Lang, and Lao Tzu and the Lord returned a family tree!I didn't make a show, so what are you doing? !

Today, Mr. Chen went on a business trip full of anger, and he hastily patrolled the rest of the places, squatting at the door of the Biegong Music Square to block people.When it was almost Haishi, it was already dark, and there were heavy snowfalls.The door of the music hall opened, and a few musicians sent out the drunken gentlemen. Those gentlemen looked up and saw the soldiers patrolling the city, shaking their prestige habitually——

Chief Chen gave an order, and the murderous soldiers rushed forward and dragged the tricksters standing at the door from the door to the street.

All of a sudden, cries and calls for help resounded through the streets.

"You...you...what are you doing?" Fan Zhen, who was drunk, hadn't noticed that the other party was coming, and there was still music in his ears. The drink made him step on the ground, and he stumbled out—he wasn't worried. Well, these soldiers didn't dare to hurt him, and they didn't even dare to make him fall—sure enough, he came out while he was drunk, and was helped up by the soldiers just before his face was on the ground.

"Qingzhou Prefecture's ten rules for the safety of the people. Those who violate the curfew will be punished as spies." Chief Chen tilted his hand.

The soldiers drew out their waist knives in unison, and skillfully cut the throats of all the prostitutes who were dragged into the street.

The group of tricksters who were dragged out didn’t even have time to react, their throats were cut, and their trachea and vocal cords were cut off so suddenly that they lost the chance to speak. Blood gushed out, but they didn’t die immediately, they could only be helpless Clutching his slit throat, he gradually lost consciousness in the icy snow.

Chief Chen pointed to the door of the music workshop.

The soldiers rushed into the music hall quickly, killing everyone with their knives out of their sheaths, and quickly cleaned up the entire music hall.

It wasn't until the blood of many dead men on the street flowed in front of Fan Zhen that Fan Zhen gradually came to his senses. He was furious and wanted to see Mr. Chen's face clearly.Chief Chen walked up to him and said: "I, Chen Heitan, my name is Jun, and my name is Gong Gong. Fu Gong is my grandfather's brother. If you want to sue, remember who I am!"

Although the relationship between Boss Chen and Chen Qi is about to be out of date, he yelled so aggressively, it was still quite intimidating.

This is an era when everyone in the same township is close to three points, and the relationship between relatives with the same surname is absolutely close.

Head Chen aggressively brought people to block Fan Zhen and the others once, and directly charged the music hall with blood for breaking the curfew, and then left.

——Boss Chen obviously also understands the seriousness.It is not a pity for the untouchables in Qingzhou to die, but Chen Qi's counselors must not move.

The problem is that Mr. Chen really overestimated the self-care ability of these gentlemen.

These playful counselors have been supported by the Chen family for many years. They only use their brains and limbs, but they can only pursue excitement and pleasure. They are not very strong.Today, I spent most of the day in the music workshop, drank the wine, and the beauty fell asleep, and pointed at the soldiers patrolling the city to send them home comfortably.

Now Boss Chen killed someone and walked away. This group of people is a little sober, but their bodies are still weak and they are not obedient at all.

The counselors were still in shock, so they could only hook their shoulders together, groping in the dark, supporting each other and walking home.

These counselors all live in the Hua family's mansion. Apart from the other palaces, the Hua family owns the most magnificent and luxurious house in Qingzhou City.Hua Pu moved the Qingzhou Mansion to the other palace to go out of the cloud, and the Hua family mansion is not very far from the other palace, so it is not difficult to walk back.

Halfway through, Fan Zhen was in a hurry to urinate and was about to pee in the street.

His colleagues didn't want to watch him walk the bird, so they all said: "I'll wait for you to walk slowly, brother, come back quickly!"

Fan Zhen searched for a long time before he opened the robe, let out the water, and after the bulging bladder was emptied, he also felt a sense of emptiness, and he chased forward two steps in a daze, completely losing his height and height. Lie on the ground and soon fell asleep.

Drunk people have no memory at all, and the counselors in front of him had forgotten Fan Zhen and fell asleep after returning home.

The people of Qingzhou who were facing the street heard the movement on the street, and some people saw Fan Zhen lying in the snow.However, Mr. Chen killed so many tricksters in the street, no matter how kind the people are, they dare not get burned under the severe punishment.As a result, the north and south gates of Changjie were closed.

After one night, Fan Zhen was completely frozen.

When the soldiers patrolling the city found Fan Zhen's body, the gentlemen who went to the music workshop with him last night were still sound asleep.

The matter was quickly reported to An Ying, and An Ying called Mr. Chen to ask him about the cause and effect, but it was also a bit difficult.If Chen Qi's mastermind was still Zhan Xuanji, this matter would be settled easily. The soldiers who went to Lefang to block Fan Zhen last night beat the soldiers with batons, and the matter was over.

——That is to say, if Zhan Xuanji was in charge, these advisers would probably not dare to come out to fool around every day.

Bai Zhifeng and Zhan Xuanji have completely different temperaments, and An Ying's qualifications are relatively low. Let Bai Zhifeng handle this matter, and I'm afraid it will not end well.

Thinking of this, An Ying didn't ask anyone to inform Bai Zhifeng, and went to the other palace to look for it first.Everyone thought that he was going to Lefang to watch the scene, but An Ying went straight to the palace gate to find Xiao Langjun in Ziyang Palace.

Xie Qinghe has already gotten up.

It snowed heavily last night, and it was freezing cold. He didn't plan to go out, and was curled up in bed doing copywriting.

At this time, Xie Qinghe had already written several words, stopped writing and raised his head when he heard the words, and asked unexpectedly: "General An?" Did Shi Juan come to fight Qingzhou in just a few days?Could it be that the snow falling from the sky only freezes Qingzhou, but not the Enzhou army's way to Qingzhou?

These days, Chen Li's personal protection has already shared the duties of a close servant.Hearing the unfinished meaning in Mr. Xiao Lang's words, it happened that An Ying also gave him some ventilation beforehand, so he stepped forward and explained: "I heard that a guest from the east building froze to death on the street, I'm afraid Mr. Make a fuss."

Xie Qinghe heard that it was troublesome, so he collected the ink manuscript and said, "Are you old with General An?"

Chen Li explained: "He and I are both orphans. I'm stupid and skilled, so I followed the landlord. After he lost the election, he went to Yingwei."

The experience of these two people is quite touching.Chen Qichao didn't want someone who was too clever as a guard. Chen Li, who was less thoughtful and skilled, was successfully selected, while An Ying was reduced to the camp guard, fighting on the front line.Now Chen Li was still working as a guard, but An Ying did not die on the battlefield. On the contrary, she was young and promising, above Qingyun, she had already become a general leading her own army.

"General An, please come in." Xie Qinghe came out of the bed and went outside to entertain guests.

His relationship with An Ying is not good enough to talk in the inner room.He didn't mind this courtesy, but he was not sure if An Ying did.

The outer hall is wide and open, so it is not as warm as the inner hall.As soon as An Ying came in to recite the ceremony and took her seat, a servant brought in a brazier of hot soup, Xie Qinghe saw that An Ying's lips were also pale from the cold, so she couldn't help asking first: "I see that the general only wears thin armor, can you provide winter clothes for the army? "

People in this era lived very hard.

The land is barren, and the crops are not as diverse and productive as later generations. If you choose food, you must give up cotton.After all, large tracts of trees in the wilderness can be burned for warmth, but people cannot use trees to satisfy their hunger.In other words, even when the world is peaceful and the royal power does not impose tyranny, the power of the people in this era cannot guarantee that everyone has enough food and clothing, and they can only choose between food and clothing.

In fact, warlords of this era seldom waged wars in winter because they could not solve the supply problem.

When the weather is cold and the weather is cold, if there is not enough pasture in the wild, the war horses will starve, and the starvation of the war horses will affect the mobility of the soldiers.Simply call a truce in winter, and everyone is nesting in Maodong.

In this way, warlords of aristocratic families with private soldiers do not have to consider the issue of preparing winter clothes for all soldiers.

Xiangzhou is one of the few places where cotton is grown, and Chen Qi is also one of the few lords who would rather sacrifice part of the cultivated land to prepare winter clothes for the soldiers.

According to Xie Qinghe's understanding, not all soldiers under Chen Qi's command could receive winter clothes.The army is also divided into direct lineage and common lineage. There is no doubt that the most elite troops have the best equipment. The rest are counted in terms of seniority. The first soldiers who followed the Chen family to fight the world have the best food and clothing, and those who later surrendered are like young ladies The raised ones always have to be a head shorter-this group of people will work hard to kill the enemy and make meritorious service, and want to be assigned to the former army.

Could it be that An Ying didn't have enough winter clothes?Did he come to cry poor on purpose?

Even if An Ying came to cry poorly in single clothes on purpose, Xie Qinghe had to accept the trick, he really couldn't bear to see people suffer.

Unexpectedly, An Ying showed embarrassment when she heard the words, stuttered, and then said: "The defenders in the city are all direct descendants of the Chinese army. The winter clothes are all ready, and there is still a surplus. The servants are wearing fine armor... They are full of energy and blood, and they are physically fit. After warming up, I just..." He laughed, "It's a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning, Xiao Lang will laugh at you."

Xie Qinghe didn't know the inside story, but he knew that there was no shortage of winter clothes in the army, so he stopped asking: "What's the matter with General An?"

An Ying explained the ins and outs of the incident.

Naturally, he spoke to the soldiers patrolling the city, and only then did he accuse him of "taking the strong man as his servant".

Xie Qinghe knew what An Ying meant, and wanted Xiao Langjun to suppress Bai Zhifeng, he didn't want to confront Bai Zhifeng head-on.

An Ying currently controls all the soldiers and horses in Qingzhou. He wants to confront Bai Zhifeng head-on, but Bai Zhifeng may not be able to get a bargain.After all, even if Bai Zhifeng said to break the sky, An Ying had big fists, and if she didn't listen or listen, Bai Zhifeng could only stare blankly.

However, An Ying didn't want to offend Bai Zhifeng.

He also wanted to protect the soldiers under his command from losses, and he didn't want to confront Bai Zhifeng head-on, so he came to find Mr. Xiao Lang to think about it.

——This is not An Ying's cunning.Just like when Xie Qinghe went to ask Bai Zhifeng for help, An Ying came to Xie Qinghe when she had something to do, which was a gesture of surrender and closeness.This matter even got Chen Qi's acquiescence. When they first met in Qingzhou, Chen Qi deliberately introduced An Ying to Xie Qinghe, and let Xie Qinghe accept An Ying's salute.

Now that Chen Qi handed over Qingzhou to Xie Qinghe, and An Ying was in charge of stationing Qingzhou, who else could listen to whom?

"From my point of view, this is a homicide case. If it is a life or death case in the army, it will naturally be judged by the general. It involves the death of the common people, as well as the life and death of the guests in the East Tower. I also understand that the general can't make a decision on his own. It was managed by Zhongzhong, but the Anmin notice was issued by the Qingzhou government. Secondly, the dead were not soldiers. This matter should be surrendered to the Qingzhou government." Xie Qinghe said.

If the people who died were really ordinary people, that's all. In the troubled times, not a single wave can be turned over.The person who died was a famous scholar in the East Building, and two forces, the Yingwei and the East Building, were involved. Both sides were Chen Qi's important power to conquer the world. How could the Yamen have the qualifications to judge?

Xie Qinghe suddenly pulled Qingzhou Mansion out, and An Ying was dumbfounded.Isn't this gesture of pushing the pot not very elegant?

"I don't sit in the court either. Now the governor of Qingzhou is Shen Yingzi, and I can ask him to make a decision on this matter." Xie Qinghe said.

An Ying stood up helplessly, and was about to politely thank her and leave.

He came here to ask Xiao Langjun to surrender, and of course he hoped that Xiao Langjun could help him solve the problem, but he was rejected by Xiao Langjun, so he couldn't just cling to Xiao Langjun's calf.Shen Yu was also a counselor in Donglou, so if he asked Shen Yu to try the case, why not just go to Bai Zhifeng and bow his head and give in?

Unexpectedly, Xie Qinghe also stood up, and ordered his servants to take out the big clothes and cloak outside: "Let me go with the general."

An Ying couldn't understand, what kind of attitude was this?

Xie Qinghe asked again: "Have you informed Mr. Bai about this matter?" Seeing An Ying's sloppy eyes, he told Chen Li, "Uncle Li sent someone to invite Mr. Bai, and went directly to Qingzhou Mansion to talk."

An Ying is a general, and she rides horses when she goes in and out. Xie Qinghe didn't call for a set car, and said: "There is no snow today, let me ride a horse."

In front of An Ying, Chen Li didn't dare to refute Mr. Xiao Lang's face, so he had to ask someone to bring the horse.An Ying obviously knew Shan Xugang's beloved horse, and her eyes showed envy. Xie Qinghe saw it and didn't say to give it to him—this horse belonged to Shan Xugang, and she might have to return it someday.

What's more, the junior brother said that riding a tiger, riding a big bear, maybe he likes a horse the most, so the junior brother has to choose it first.

An Ying and Xie Qinghe were followed by a group of guards when they went out, and rushed to Qingzhou Mansion in a mighty manner. By coincidence, Shen Yu was not there.

According to the report of the documents left behind in Qingzhou Mansion, Chang Shi led all the adults in the business, and they have been going through the streets and alleys to check the records these days-they don’t believe the information handed in by the original officials in Qingzhou when they surrendered. Is it accurate?Of course it depends on the real thing.

An Ying had roughly done this kind of work in the early days, but what An Ying focused on was the granary, armory and silver warehouse.

These days, Shen Mata is looking at artisans in the market, and the focus is on registering artisans for the convenience of future recruitment and management.

Xie Qinghe was quite surprised: "Mr. Shen going in person?"

The clerk said helplessly: "There is not enough manpower. The market in this place is complicated and slippery. Mr. Shen has a keen eye and has caught a lot of fish that slipped through the net."

Xie Qinghe nodded in understanding, this is the difficulty of governance.

When you fight the world, you only want the sharpness of your fists and knives. When you encounter an enemy who refuses to admit defeat, you cut it down.Chen Qi's current practice of not keeping prisoners is hard to win over people's hearts. To ensure Qingzhou's survival, Shen Yu cannot do without the support of all businesses in the market. The people of Qingzhou are so opposed, and Shen Yu's running on the street in person is considered a thousand dollars.

"Send someone to invite Mr. Shen back. There is a murder case that needs to be brought to trial. This matter is urgent, so don't delay." Xie Qinghe said.

Xie Qinghe had only been to Qingzhou Mansion a few days ago, and he was still familiar with several gentlemen here, so he was welcomed into the house to warm up and talk.

With such a back and forth delay, Shen Yu and Bai Zhifeng entered the door at about the same time.Shen Yu came back in a hurry alone, while Bai Zhifeng took the counselor who went to the music workshop with Fan Zhen last night, and was about to attack when he entered the door aggressively.

Before these gentlemen could open their mouths, Xie Qinghe stood up to say hello, and after he talked to Bai Zhifeng, he walked up to those few people.

The few people who were about to spray were stared at by his cold eyes a little uncomfortable.These counselors who are fond of drinking and sex are relatively broken in terms of personal morality. However, they are always smart enough to be admitted to the east building by Chen Qi, and to be included in the staff team as an accompanying military counselor.

Now is not the time for "if you don't stay here, you will have a place to stay here". The fate is in Chen, and there is no other high branch to climb.

It would be unwise to say goodbye to Mr. Xiao Lang, the only son of Chen Qi.

——I really want to support the other son of the lord, watching this stinky boy with cold eyes lose his heir, live a miserable life, and linger...it's impossible!Chen Qi only has this one son!In this case, it is useless for counselors to slander!

Between Huoshi and Dianguang, this group of counselors has gone through "120 ways to make Xiao Langjun fall out of favor".

After realizing that Chen Qi only had such a son, and he could only physically destroy him if he wanted to deal with Xiao Langjun, these people were a little bit helpless.

Xie Qinghe bowed his hands and saluted, and asked politely: "Are you sober, gentlemen?"

It was quite a humiliating question, but Mr. Xiao Lang's attitude was so sincere that people couldn't tell whether it was caring or ironic.

Bai Zhifeng smoothed things over: "It's freezing cold, why don't you explain it in detail?"

Shen Yu's temper is short-tempered, and he didn't show any impatience on this occasion, nor did he deliberately show the authority of Qingzhou Prefecture in front of Bai Zhifeng and An Ying.Bai Zhifeng will leave soon, and An Ying is leading the army, so there is no need for the Qingzhou government to compete with them for power.

All government offices have the power and obligation to settle cases, and the Qingzhou government has not taken care of this, nor is it ready to accept complaints from the people.

Shen Yu directly brought everyone into the lobby of the original Shangshu Mansion.

This place occupies a large area, and Shen Yu thought it would take too much firewood and charcoal to maintain the temperature, so he didn't use it.

Shen Yu asked people to tidy up the place temporarily, only placed seats on the mat, and there was only a desk for the clerk in the corner, it looked like the owner of the house was receiving unexpected guests, but there was not much atmosphere of a murder trial.

After all parties were seated, Shen Yu asked, "I don't know the cause and effect yet."

It is possible to get a preconceived impression by narrating anything first. However, Bai Zhifeng sitting here is unlikely to let anyone make false statements.So An Ying didn't bother to grab this opportunity, so as not to make outsiders feel that she was in the wrong, so she just sat on the side and kept smiling.

Bai Zhifeng glanced at the counselors around him.Those counselors who were still full of anger are still listless now.

Shen Mata frowned and said, "Did General An teach me anything?"

These counselors are all involved, but they all drank too much yesterday, so they don't know what happened at all.They were called up temporarily and said that Fan Zhen was frozen to death on the road. Even if they could figure out the cause and effect, can they tell the story?

On the contrary, An Ying, who was not at the scene, grasped the first-hand information but kept silent. Shen Yu felt that he was very pretentious, so she asked him by name just now.

"It was reported today that someone was frozen to death on the street, and that it was a guest from the East Building..." An Ying was willing to speak about the case.

When he complained to Xie Qinghe, he told how Fan Zhen and others bullied the soldiers patrolling the city.In front of Shen Yu and Bai Zhifeng, this paragraph of narrative was completely suppressed by him.He only said that these days some people violate the night ban every day, and the impact is very bad. However, considering the high status of the counselors in the East Building, the lowly soldiers dare not offend them. The bandits were executed.

As for Fan Zhen's death, the soldiers patrolling the city didn't know the inside story at all. If they wanted to know the cause of his death, they had to ask some of the gentlemen present.

As soon as the words fell, He Bing was not happy, and asked: "Is the Qingzhou curfew set up for us? Does General An suspect that we are spies and go out in the middle of the night to harm the Qingzhou city defense? It was originally to prohibit the untouchables in Qingzhou The law, written in the Ten Articles of Anmin, has nothing to do with us? Why do we have to abide by the curfew rules? ——It’s the Chinese army tent of the Lord Lang, can’t I go in the middle of the night?!”

An Ying said slowly: "Sir, calm down. Why did the soldiers patrolling the city blame you for the curfew? Aren't all the people who died were musicians?"

"It's really funny. Executing a prostitute in front of us is killing chickens and scaring monkeys? The general dares to say that he has no intention of deterrence? Instead, he quibbles and has no intention of offending. Among the prostitutes killed last night was the old man's new concubine , this matter will never rest with you!" He Bing said angrily.

An Ying opened her mouth. He came from a reckless background. He really didn't know that a educated hooligan is so fierce that he can take a concubine temporarily for the sake of quarrels!

Shen Yu already understood the ins and outs, he was so busy these days that the corners of his mouth were blistered, and he had to run back to solve the case for this group of psychopaths, from Fan Zhen's death to He Bing's concubine's room, he didn't know what to say!

It just so happened that An Ying was stunned for a while, and Shen Yu asked, "Is there anyone else who is taking prostitutes as concubines in the Bie Gong Le Fang?"

Shen Yu has also been in the East Building for nearly 20 years. He has rich experience and talent, and most people don't want to match him.After He Bing took the concubine on the spot, the rest of them still remembered the dead Fan Zhen, and they didn't take issue with Shen Yu. But Dechen's death has to wait for an explanation!"

"Fan Dechen returned home with the rest of you. He will die on the street. It is also because you have not taken good care of your colleagues and friends, but what do you want me to give you? I am the governor of Qingzhou, not the chief history of the heavenly court. , so that the drunkard will not die on a snowy night?!" Shen Yu didn't show any obvious expression of turning his face, and asked back with a normal expression.

The faces of He Bing, Jiang Hui and others all changed suddenly, and He Bing sat up even more: "If there were no soldiers patrolling the city to kill people in the street, how could Dechen freeze to death in the snowy night?"

Shen Yu looked at him like an idiot: "Anmin's ten articles have been posted on the streets and alleys for thirteen days. Those who break the night ban are the same crimes as spies. The soldiers patrolling the city braved the wind and snow. A criminal of the law. Not to mention whether it is reasonable for the soldiers patrolling the city to execute the Lefang prostitutes. If they didn’t kill the Lefang prostitutes, wouldn’t Fan Dechen have to go home? Wouldn’t he be in a hurry to urinate halfway? He wouldn’t be waiting for you Did you leave it behind and die alone in the snowy night?"

There is no reason to justify it.The matter of Fan Zhen, He Bing and others breaking the night ban was unreasonable in the first place.

As Chen Qi's guests, they could order the city patrolling soldiers without any scruple. After breaking the night ban several times, instead of receiving any punishment, they got the opportunity to playfully enslave the city patrolling soldiers.The reason why they went home on foot last night was because they had sent all their chariots and horses back, and they only wanted to ask the soldiers patrolling the city to clear the way and send them back in a beautiful manner.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Chen turned his face and murdered and then left. The torches that cleared the way and the city patrol car drove back from the past few days have all disappeared.

There were dead bodies everywhere in the music hall, they could not shelter temporarily, and there was no car to serve them, so they could only go back on foot.

However, this world is often not always so reasonable.

Between the curtain guards in the east building and the soldiers patrolling the city, the curtain guards in the east building were naturally heavier.No matter how reasonable the soldiers patrolling the city were, they fought back in order to vent their anger, causing Fan Zhen to freeze to death on the street.

It is only because Chen Qi is not in Qingzhou, An Ying holds all the military power in Qingzhou, and An Ying, Bai Zhifeng, and Shen Yu do not govern each other, so there is such a situation of mutual disobedience today-it is difficult for anyone to speak well.

Shen Yu is a reasonable person, so he sided with An Ying: "Fan Dechen's death was purely accidental, if someone has to be responsible for it, you colleagues who are traveling with him will each contribute a piece of money to arrange the funeral for him." , to raise his wife and children."

He Bing almost exploded with anger, and got up straight: "Fuck your mother!"

Seeing that He Bing was about to charge up and beat Shen Yu, An Ying wanted to get up to protect her. Shen Yu had already sat up slowly, holding onto the long sword she was wearing.

Bai Zhifeng hastily explained: "Don't worry, little man, Shen Yingzi is strong and good at fencing, so she can't fight." Saying this, she hurriedly got up to fight—mainly to hold He Bing who was screaming.

He Bing is a weak chicken who doesn't work hard, and his mouth is full of anger. In fact, he doesn't dare to beat the tall Shen Yu at all.

Xie Qinghe couldn't help but sigh with emotion, he deserves to be revered as the god of agriculture by later generations, how can he grow a good field without much strength?

An Ying was very worried that Bai Zhifeng would sideline Fan Zhen, but after inviting Xiao Langjun and Shen Yu, Bai Zhifeng was very talkative.After Shen Yan's conversation with He Bing and the others collapsed, Bai Zhifeng was busy putting out the fire, that is, coaxing He Bing and the others gently.

After Bai Zhifeng compromised, there was no suspense about this matter.

He Bing and the others finally calmed down, and agreed to pay for Fan Zhen's funeral.

Shen Yu still refused to give up, saying: "The courtiers in Biegong Lefang violated the night ban, and they have all been executed. Mr. He is a sinner and the wife's master, so please donate a piece of money to take care of the affairs of the concubine's room—the rest will wait for you." Qingzhou Mansion has no choice but to pay for the embalming if it doesn’t come to the lord. Mr. He wouldn’t take advantage of Qingzhou Mansion’s advantage?”

He Bing almost jumped up again: "Shen Yingzi, are you still human?!"

Xie Qinghe is also very helpless, Shen Yu asked just now who else is taking concubines in Lefang, is it waiting here to ask for funeral money?

"Mr. He, please sit down. I will pay for the funeral of Lefang, Mr. Fan's funeral, his wife, children and mother, and Donglou will also take care of it. What does Chang Shi think?" Xie Qinghe didn't expect that the person he would finally appease would not be Bai Zhifeng, It was Shen Mata.

Today, Xie Qinghe brought An Ying to find Shen Yu to resolve the case, which essentially showed his respect for Shen Yu's status as a long history, and Shen Yu was also very satisfied.

From Shen Yu's point of view, the main reason why this case was handled so neatly was that Bai Zhifeng didn't protect her shortcomings.Why didn't Bai Zhifeng favor He Bing and the others?Of course, it is Xiao Langjun's affection.Even the fact that He Bing, Jiang Hui and the others succumbed so easily was due to Mr. Xiao Lang's words "Are you sober?" when they first met in Qingzhou Mansion.

At the end when Xie Qinghe came to the Circus, Shen Yan stopped haggling with He Bing and nodded slightly.

"Since this matter has been closed, gentlemen go back first." Xie Qinghe said to He Bing.

He Bing and the others were only asked to go back, so that Bai Zhifeng, An Ying and Shen Yu could discuss other matters together.

Xie Qinghe spoke politely and had a gentle attitude, but no one forgot his cold eyes when he stood at the door just now.The only son of the lord is not easy to mess with, and He Bing and the others all had a hangover headache, so they didn't bother after hearing the words, and got up to say goodbye.

After the few of them left, Chen Li asked the servants of Qingzhou Mansion to bring in hot soup, and everyone drank a bowl to keep warm.

Holding the soup bowl, Bai Zhifeng changed her sitting posture and leaned against the table, and said to Shen Yu: "Zi Che and Dechen are friends from the same village, and Dechen is newly mourned, so what if you let him say a few words?"

Shen Mata lowered his head and sipped the soup, as if he had never heard of it.

After eating a bowl of soup, Xie Qinghe's whole body became hot. Seeing that Shen Yu and others also put down the soup bowls, he said: "The soldier who patrolled the city who killed people in Lefang last night... I don't ask who he is, but General An put it down. He was transferred back to the camp, or arranged to guard the city gate, or to rest in the camp, do not let him patrol the city again."

After the sentence was finished, all three present were lost in thought.

Xie Qinghe didn't care what they thought, and continued: "I don't understand military affairs, I have an idea, and discuss it with you gentlemen, whether it is successful or not can be discussed, and it doesn't have to be done."

Since the military affairs were mentioned, only An Ying could take over, he hurriedly said, "Sir, please tell me."

"Curfew and city patrols are under the jurisdiction of the city defense, and during the war, although the Ten Rules of Anmin were issued in the name of Qingzhou Prefecture, they were enforced by military law. The soldiers patrolling the city last night, the highest rank was no more than a mere soldier, so there is no need to ask the superior. How many people died in Lefang?" Xie Qinghe suddenly got stuck in the middle of speaking, and asked An Ying.

Both Shen Yu and Bai Zhifeng had heard what he meant, Shen Yu was thoughtful, and Bai Zhifeng looked at An Ying.

An Ying added: "The scene is still being counted, and there are about [-] to [-] people."

"That's 30 people. I have read the laws of the Qin court, and the state shepherd has the right to die. After the county magistrate and the county magistrate make a punishment, they will be escorted to the state capital, and then the state shepherd will judge and decide. Now the world is in war, and the dead or It’s not unusual, and during the war, soldiers patrolling the city are all marching, and they can be executed in the street if they violate the law—this is naturally for the safety of Qingzhou.”

When Xie Qinghe said this, the gentle smile on his face gradually disappeared: "Once the adjudicated person has selfish intentions, innocent people will die. You and I both know that the cause of the Lefang tragedy last night was not the music trick It is forbidden, but the soldiers patrolling the city have resentment towards the guests in the east building, and they dare not attack the guests in the east building, so they kill the tricksters in the music workshop."

There was no sound in the room, except for the occasional crackling and popping of charcoal in the brazier.

"Fan and He came to visit. How dare the musicians in Lefang refuse? How dare they drive them away? I have seen Li Shu are humble and docile. If there is a way to survive, they will go very staunchly. I'm afraid they never thought that not serving guests is death, serving them The guest also died. Such a tragedy happened, and it spread wildly in the market, and everyone in the Li family knew that if they were obedient, they would die, and if they were not obedient, they would die, so why should they be obedient people?" Xie Qinghe asked rhetorically.

An Ying was so scolded that she couldn't sit still, she stood up and retreated from the seat and bowed to the ground: "The servant is not strict with the soldiers, and he kills Li Shu without authorization, and the servant will be guilty."

"Please, General An. This is an extraordinary time of war. If the soldiers in the army have no hostility to hide, how can they control the enemy and win? I discussed this matter today, and I want to ask General An, can some of the wounded and weak soldiers be divided into It doesn’t take too many people to come out, three to five hundred is enough, and it will be returned to the Qingzhou government.”

"How many soldiers are patrolling the city today?" Xie Qinghe asked.

An Ying replied: "There are more than [-] people on shifts day and night."

He has already roughly understood Xie Qinghe's thoughts, and he is more worried that Mr. Xiaolang will forcefully carry out this matter: "Mr. Mr. Qingzhou, now Qingzhou is newly descended, and the city is not stopping. The three hundred and five people patrolling the streets are afraid that Qingzhou will cause chaos. If there are more Allocate some troops to Qingzhou Mansion... It's not that you are stingy, but there are not enough troops to defend the city."

"General An's troops patrolling the city don't have to withdraw. Just let the 'people' from Qingzhou Prefecture patrol the streets together." Xie Qinghe said.

All the people present were smart people, Xie Qinghe said the arrangement, and they immediately understood the intention.

The people are all under An Ying's command. This arrangement will not affect the combat effectiveness of the soldiers patrolling the city, nor will it affect the defense of the city patrolling.

Only a part of the soldiers were put under the management of the Qingzhou government and reported the situation to the Qingzhou government.In this way, the two sides belong to different yamen, and they will naturally supervise each other, with a high probability of preventing any incident of favoritism in ruling and killing innocent people without authorization.

What Xie Qinghe wants is wounded and weak soldiers, and only three to five hundred soldiers, An Ying
