Biquge www.mtlnovel.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Changan Twelve Hours (Complete Collection)!

At this time, it was not time to put the lights on, but the residents of Chang’an City helped the old and the young, and took to the streets early, squeezing together with satin-colored bullock carts and mules.

Tianbao three years on January 14th, Shen Zheng.

Chang’an, Chang’an County, West City.

The sudden change caught everyone off guard.

The two brigade soldiers brutally pressed Zhang Xiaojing to the ground, tied his wrists with tendons, and then stuffed a numb core in his mouth, making Zhang Xiaojing completely unable to resist, even his voice could not be heard. Throughout the process, Cui Qi’s right hand was always held on the handle of the knife, staring closely at Zhang Xiaojing’s movements, ready to go. It seems that as long as he has a trace of resistance, he will die on the spot.

A few moments ago, this man was still on the verge of collapse, and pitifully counted on Zhang Xiaojing for help, but now he has completely changed his face. Zhang Xiaojing couldn’t speak, and his neck could still turn. He looked up and stared at Cui Qi with one eye. Cui Qi turned his face away, but the corners of his mouth twitched slightly-his heart was not as calm as he tried to play.

Several bad guys still maintained a flattering smile and froze in place. They don’t understand what is going on. Isn’t this grand hero a hero? How did you become a prisoner in a flash?

It’s not that Zhang Xiaojing didn’t think that the people of Jing Ansi would kill and kill donkeys. What he didn’t expect was that they couldn’t wait for a moment.

People on the other side of the river were also confused by the outbreak. The river was too wide to see what was happening. They only saw Zhang Xiaojing being lifted ashore from afar, and then held down. Xu Bin had poor eyesight and hurriedly dragged Yao Runeng’s sleeve straight, asking him to look carefully. Yao Runeng tried to close his eyes, barely seeing the two soldiers escorting Zhang Xiaojing away, and a general followed. The small team turned around behind a pile of wood and disappeared from the view across the river.

“It’s the brigade army …”

Yao Ru could murmur. There are two white tapes next to their shoulder armor, and they will never be mistaken.

As soon as Xu Bin heard it, he was confused, and his eyes were puzzled: “Impossible! What are they doing with their own people? Is there any misunderstanding?” He twirled anxiously around the river embankment, thinking about what he wanted to ask Who would have slipped, almost rolled into the water. Fortunately, he grabbed Yao Runeng’s arm and barely stood still.

Yao Runeng’s heart was ups and downs at this time. Although the young man was simple and honest, he was not stupid. Jing Ansi’s attitude toward Zhang Xiaojing has always been very ambiguous-both admiring his ability to handle things and being wary of his identity as a prisoner on death row. Not to mention He Zhizhang, even Li Bi, who is pushing this matter, has a guard against Zhang Xiaojing, otherwise he will not send Yao Ru to monitor.

The brigade army is a direct unit of the Jingan Division, and Cui Qi only takes orders from Li Mi. Yao Ru could guess that he probably didn’t want to let the outside world know that the entire Jingan Division had to rely on a death row prisoner to get things done, so he tried to eliminate the impact as soon as possible-but it was so shameless!

Zhang Xiaojing has just desperately saved half of Chang’an City. How can he treat a hero like this?

Yao Ru could shake the corner of his robe and walked step by step towards the earth **** next to it. Li Mi and his maid are standing on the top of the slope, also looking across the river. He took a deep breath and planned to go to Li Mi to ask what happened.

Publicly questioning the boss, this is a crazy move, maybe he could not gain a foothold in Chang’an. But Yao Ru could be like a catfish in his throat, and there was a fire burning in his chest. Xu Bin noticed his movements, hesitated, and followed.

Li Bi heard the sound of footsteps and sternly looked over here. Xu Bin quickly stood still and dragged Yao Runeng again. But at this time Yao Runeng had taken a big step forward and could not hide his anger.

“Li … Li Sicheng.” Xu Bin decided to ease the atmosphere first.

Li Mi looked at them and said coldly: “If you are asking Zhang Xiaojing, I would also like to know who gave Cui Qi the order.”

Yao Runeng and Xu Bin were stunned for a moment. So it was not Li Li’s order?

Who will it be? The entire Jingan Division is eligible to order Cui Qi, only Si Cheng and Jing Anling, but He Jian has returned to the house to nurse, and it is impossible to catch up with the rapid changes here. To say that Cui Qi made his own claims, how can he have such a courage?

Li Biyin waved his hand with a sullen face: “This is not a place to talk, go back to Jing’an first.”

At this time, the residents and merchants of Xishi are coming together from all directions and talking about the canals. The series of commotions just now were too great, and these people who watched the lanterns were recruited. Officials from the West Market Department are desperately trying to maintain order, but they can get paid. On this occasion, it is really inappropriate to talk.

Jing’an Division is just across the street from Xishi. Li Mi and his party walked across the street and saw a large group of servants cleaning the bodies of the guards. Mage’s fat body was lying on a flatbed like a boar, his eyes widened. Several civilians spit at him in disgust, but did not dare to get close, throwing willow branches around and throwing salt at the end.

These elites on the grassland are now lying on the streets of Chang’an, and they are rejected like garbage. Yao Ru can have no sympathy for them, but he thought to himself, if these Turkic heroes were killed, it would be too ironic if they also end the same.

What Zhang Xiaojing said to him unexpectedly sounded in his ear again: “In Chang’an City, if you don’t become a monster like it, you will be swallowed by it.”

A group of people returned to the Jing’an Hall, where the tense atmosphere filled with ten hours before had been relieved. The enemy is gone, whether it is a tired scholar or a dumb voice, all showing a relieved expression. Many people began to pack their books and utensils quietly, planning to go home early and take their families to admire the lights. After all, this is the most lively Shangyuan Festival of the year.

Li Bi was displeased: “Wang Jiedu’s daughter is still missing, so slack, let outsiders see what it looks like!”

After the disappearance of Wolf Guard, Wang Yunxiu’s kidnapping case became the most urgent matter to be resolved by Jing Ansi. Wang Zhongsi is a heavy minister of North Korea and China. If any of his family members fail, he will be a great blow to the prince. Li Bi must not allow this to happen.

Xu Bin hurried over and kicked the corner of the case to urge them to get together. These little officials had to unfold their shoulder bags and sit back, but many people disagreed. Everyone thinks that she must have died in the explosion of Changming Square, the bones are gone, there is no need to toss.

Li Bi didn’t take care of these people anymore. He walked through the huge sand table of Chang’an City with great care, and came straight to his case. In his case, there were seven or eight text boxes with different textures, which contained news reports, censorships, and papers from various places. One of the most luxurious is a purple pattern brooch, which is written by the Prosperity Office. It has always been empty, but now there is a silver-edged book inside.

Tan Qi was convinced that the box was empty before they set off. She picked up the signing slip next to it, and it just arrived shortly afterwards.

Li Bi opened the document and glanced at it, but could not help but sneer: “I haven’t found it yet, they sent the answer first.” Then he threw it into Xu Bin’s hand. Xu Bin took a closer look at the book. The book came from You Xiaowei. It said that in view of the fear of being attacked by thieves in the imperial city, the brigade army Cui Qi was temporarily raised, and related people were arrested for thorough investigation. Yun Yun.

To outsiders, this is just a simple notice, but in the eyes of people who are familiar with the officialdom, it is very meaningful.

The Jing’an Division is responsible for the inside and outside of Chang’an City, while You Xiaowei is responsible for the outer security of the Imperial City. The responsibilities of the two do not overlap, and there is no ownership relationship. The Turkic people have been making such a big deal, and it is also within the scope of Jing Ansi’s responsibility.

But Wolf Guard crossed the dead line of Guang De Huaiyuan, making everything different.

As soon as they passed the dead line, they posed a direct threat to the imperial city, and the nature immediately became a major case of “disturbing the Holy Drive”, and You Xiaowei had the right to immediately intervene in the investigation. They played the gold signboard of investigating the case, and whoever wanted to raise it, whoever dared not to cooperate with the case, was “conspiracy”.

Therefore, if You Xiaowei asked Cui Qi to arrest Zhang Xiaojing, although the behavior was beyond authority, he could not bear the pressure because of a small general.

However, Cui Qi is not innocent in this matter. He can clearly inform Jing An in advance to prepare Li Mi. But he silently engaged in a sudden attack, and also caught Zhang Xiaojing and sent it directly to You Xiaowei. This was tantamount to betrayal.

Yao Runeng’s betrayal of Cui Qi is not surprising. Starting from the release of Cao Poyan in Xishi, a series of major mistakes made Cui Qi like a bird with a terrified bow, extremely frightened. Wolf Guard crossed the dead line and was the last straw on the camel’s back. Cui Qi thought that staying in Jing’an was already a dead end. It would be better to hug the right Xiaowei’s thigh. Fortunately, it would be effective.

Li Bi was not interested in the whereabouts of Cui Qi. He knocked the case with his finger: “Why did You Xiaowei capture Zhang Xiaojing?”

This is the core question. What is the benefit of You Xiaowei taking the risk of conflict with Jingan Division and forcibly transcending power to catch people?

No one answered. The matter involved North Korea, Yao Runeng’s level was too low, and Xu Bin was awkward, and neither of them gave any valuable advice. Tan Qi stood aside quietly, his fingertips pressed against his chin, and a pair of beautiful eyes stared at the sand table. Suddenly, she coughed gently and stretched out her slender fingers, seemingly inadvertently pointing to Pingkangfang in the sand table.

Li Mi’s eyes lit up suddenly.

Tanqi is a domestic maid, and she dare not speak on such occasions, but her hint is clear enough. In Pingkangfang, there is not only a blue building, but also a big man-Li Xiangfu, the right.

One of the most famous political landscapes in the dynasty is the confrontation between Li Linfu and the East Palace. This prime minister, who has the right to dominate the world, has always been hostile to the East Palace, but it has not been made public. In the dark, he has been staring at Jing Ansi’s mistakes, so that he can attack the East Palace, which is the most dangerous enemy of the Prince in Chaotang.

There was only a short gap from the dispatch of You Xiaowei to the arrest of Zhang Xiaojing. The enemy can instantly grasp the flaw and bite seven inches at a time. This amazing vision and execution ability is definitely not the right warrior’s soldiers can figure it out, there must be a veteran behind. Only the right phase can do this and has the ability to do so.

Following this idea, the whole motivation suddenly became clear.

If Zhang Xiaojing falls into the hands of Li Linfu, his identity alone is enough to make a big article: Why do you insist on appointing a dead prisoner? Why do you think he is trustworthy? The wolf guards were killed by the imperial city. Was he poor at doing things or was he willing to indulge? If another loyal clerk is employed, can these riots be avoided? Without ten percent certainty, you have taken risks, have you taken the safety of the holy seriously?

Li Mi imagined Li Linfu’s questioning faces in his mind, and he couldn’t help but hey. As Li Heng had previously reminded at the Pure Land Institute, He Zhizhang was a pavilion sheltering the wind and rain. As soon as he went, he opened his arms and arrows immediately.

The incident of the Turkic Wolf Guard incident was ambiguous: saying success was successful, and the murderers were all killed; saying failure was failure. These prairie barbarians approached the imperial city at one time, disturbing the throne. .

In other words, whether the Jing’an Division is “Sustained” or “Neglect of Duty” depends on which side of Chaotang is more powerful. Zhang Xiaojing is in the hands of the right minister, but Dong Gong is passive.

No wonder Li Xiang shot so quickly.

Yao Runeng and Xu Bin stood at the same place, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out. Although they are not as thorough as Li Bi, but by looking at the boss’s complexion, they know how troublesome it is.

Li Bi explained briefly, Xu Bin’s face dimmed, and he lowered his head. Yao Ru could bite his lips in exasperation, he didn’t understand, how could this matter be so complicated? Only because of the mutual entanglement among officials, can a hero who rescued Chang’an be arrested at will? This is not a heyday!

“You are too short to come to Chang’an. Such a thing … hey.” Xu Bin shook his head. However, Yao Runeng looked at Li Bi and shouted: “Li Sicheng, we can’t give up Zhang Duwei, this is wrong!”

Li Mi motioned to him that Shao An was restless, and his right hand habitually wanted to grab something, only to find it was empty. Tan Qi took the dust from the side and put it in his hand. Li Bifuchen shook his head and said in a deep voice: “We will not give up Zhang Xiaojing-the Turkic people, but it is not over yet!”

The three of them were stunned. Wasn’t Wolf Guard all dead?

Xu Bin thought that Li Bi was referring to the progress of Wang Yunxiu’s investigation, and quickly turned around to pick up a volume of reports: “The brigade army is now carrying out the Longbo residence of Huaiyuan Square, the empty house of Xiuzheng Square, the warehouse of Changming Square … Hey … search thoroughly, but no trace of Wang Yunxiu has been found yet. ”

But Li Mi shook his head: “I’m not talking about Wang Yunxiu, it’s a Turkic thing.”

Xu Binqi said: “Which? Does Si Cheng have any worries?” Li Bi glanced at him: “Master Xu’s memory is not bad, but I can remember how much Su Yan’s chariots and horses used to declare in Yanzhou’s petrolatum. barrel?”

Xu Bin was familiar with these figures and blurted out: “Three hundred barrels, divided into thirty large pallets.”

“Three hundred barrels of petrolatum is three hundred barrels of fierce fire. The three carriages just contained a total of fifteen barrels-in other words, there were two hundred and eighty-five barrels and twenty-seven pallets falling. unknown.”

Li Bi reminded faintly that the people around were startled.

Yes, Wolf Guard only brought a small part. Only the power of those five barrels has turned the city upside down, and there are more than two hundred barrels of whereabouts. This Chang’an City, God … There are four words appearing in their hearts at the same time: Que Lehuo.

At this time, Yao Runeng said: “But the Turkic people are so deadly injured, and even if there are fish in the net, there should not be enough people to transport more than two hundred barrels?”

Li Bi seemed to be a smile: “Who said that this is a Turkic person?”

Yao Ru was able to be dumbfounded, and then was shocked with cold sweat. It does n’t matter whether it is Zhang Xiaojing or Li Bi. They always use the darkest thoughts to speculate on the situation, as if there were no good people in this world. Even more frightening is that they are probably right.

Li Bidao: “So we still need Zhang Xiaojing, no one can do this except him.”

Everyone glanced at the sand table. The fog was lingering on Chang’an City. While everyone was celebrating the victory, the real monster was still dormant in the dark, just showing its fangs. Only Zhang Xiaojing could break through the mist and drag the monster into the sun-but he was in a prison weave by himself.

Yao Ru can hesitate for a moment and stand forward: “The humble office is willing to negotiate with Youxiaowei.” Xu Bin rubbed his hands in a hurry: “…… Hey, confused! What is your identity? You don’t even have your eyelids crushed by Youxiaowei Will move. ”

“Then I have to try it! If it doesn’t work, I will … I will …” Yao Runeng said here, and took off the waist token. “I will go to prison! Please rest assured that I will resign from the mission, Going by white body will never implicate Jing Ansi. ”

“Shaoan is not irritable and has not reached that point.”

Li Bi indicated that he shouldn’t be so excited, but Yao Runeng caught his implication—not yet reached that point, meaning that if he did get to that point, wouldn’t he be a prisoner?

Li Bi put the dust on the case a lot, and his eyes shone sharply: “I will handle this matter personally. Others will wait for me to keep my post and continue to search for Wang Yunxiu, no slack!”

There was a murmur of dissatisfaction and disappointment in the hall, but under Li Mi’s staring, there was no man-made times. The servants yawned and spread out the bookshelves, and the servants blew the crushed stove back on their cats. Rumors flew out of the hall and informed the Wanglou everywhere of this unfortunate news.

Li Bi asked Xu Bin, Yao Runeng and several other principals to supervise the search, and then turned to the back hall. There, Tanqi has prepared his robe and abacus.

“Son, are you really going to go to the right Xiaowei?” Tan Qi whispered worriedly.

“No, in the middle of Li Xiang’s arms, he was expecting me to tear up with the people in Nan Ya.” Li Bi stared directly at Tanqi. “The person who is going is not me, but you.”

“Me?” Tanqi suddenly panicked, “Why, why is it me?”

Li Bi attached to Tan Qi’s ear and said a few words. Tan Qi glanced at the young man in amazement, thinking he was kidding. Li Mi nodded firmly, saying that he was not crazy.

“You are a smart girl. Here you serve tea and water and set the sand table, which is too much for you.”
