Chapter 181: Embarrassment
The Xuanwu Gate is close at hand, but there are soldiers guarding the gate to intercept it, and if you want to get out of the city, you have to break through! The soldiers guarding the gate are lazy and lazy on weekdays, but today they appear in such a timely manner, someone must be behind them.
"Shoot arrows, scare them!" With Chen Yue's order, Yu Feng on his side pulled out his bow and arrow, pulled the bow and shot, the feather arrow crossed the sky and inserted it on the side of the city gate that was closing, only a few inches away from a soldier's hand, the soldier screamed, and he couldn't care about closing the door anymore and turned around and ran. The other soldier glanced at the trembling feathered arrows and ran away.
Not to be outdone, Li Yulin, who had just joined, also took out his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow, and the feather arrow was inserted into the helmet cherry of the hundred households guarding the door who was blocking the way. The hundred households looked at the oncoming feather arrows, and felt a shock on the top of their heads, and they were so frightened that they sat on the ground, their crotch was hot, and urine was rolling out.
More than 20 horsemen rolled forward, and the sound of "booming and booming" horses' hooves was breathtaking, although there were still dozens of steps away, a huge deterrent had already come to the face, and the huge impact of the galloping horses was not something that the body could withstand, let alone block only some officers and soldiers of the Beijing battalion who were negligent in training and messing around. Even the chiefs of the hundred households sitting on the ground couldn't take care of it, and all the soldiers snorted and hid on both sides!
The hundred households sat on the ground in a daze, watching the huge war horse rushing with amazing momentum, and couldn't help howling loudly in fear, but the body couldn't even move a finger, just howled and watched dozens of cavalry quickly approach.
A war horse rushed towards him, and the knight on the horse just gave him a cold look, and as soon as he pulled the reins, the war horse leaped up and jumped over him. Dozens of war horses galloped past in turn, and the sound of horses' hooves was shocking, although it was only a short time, but it was a long time for these hundred households. When all the cavalry galloped past and disappeared into the south of the city, Baihu stood up with a pale face. Ignoring the wet pants, Baihu looked up and saw a brocade-robed man on the city tower staring at him coldly, judging from the shape of the brocade-robed man's mouth open, it was clear that he was scolding the word "waste"!
After the Xuanwu Gate, Chen Yue's heart relaxed, although he has not yet left Beijing, as long as he goes west along Xiyanhe Street, he will soon be able to reach Xibianmen, Xibianmen has always been guarded by his father Chen Jianghe, and there is no problem when he goes out of the city. As for these confessions of secretly poisoning themselves, there will be time to kill them in the future!
......
Just when Chen Yue and his entourage passed through Xuanwu Gate, there was a gorgeously decorated high-end teahouse on the north side of Xuanwu Gate, called "Yanhui Building", on the second floor of Yanhui Building, in a private room leaning against the street, two people were watching from the window, and happened to see Chen Yue and others galloping.
"Who is this? How dare you gallop on the streets of the inner city? The old man among the two asked in shock, this old man wears brocade and jade, and is dressed very magnificently, if Princess Kunxing is here, she can recognize this person at a glance as her grandfather, Jiading Bo Zhoukui.
With Zhou Kui, it is not an ordinary person, but the former commander of Jinyiwei, Luo Yangxing.
Luo Yangxing looked at the arrogant and galloping Chen Yue and his party through the window, his face suddenly darkened, his right hand was tightly pinched, and the fan in his hand creaked.
"Master Guo, you should have heard of this person." Luo Yangxing turned around and smiled at Zhou Kui.
"Oh? Could it be that the son of which prince is not successful? But even if it is the son of the prince of the country, he can't run a horse in the inner city like this, the people of Shuntianfu and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division can't do it! Zhou Kui couldn't help but be surprised.
"What are the Shuntian Mansion and the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, they are not enough to see in front of this person, don't you see that the soldiers guarding the city are scared and urinating!" Luo Yangxing pointed to the back of Chen Yue and his party who rushed out of Xuanwu Gate and smiled.
"It's really arrogant!" Zhou Kui was surprised, "But who is this?" "There are no noble, civilian, and military generals in Beijing that Zhou Kui doesn't recognize, but he has never seen such a person.
"This person is the Xishan soldier who has just broken the Tartar Warrior Road, and the imperial gift is Shangfang Sword Chen Yue! You've definitely heard of it. Luo Yangxing smiled.
"It's him!" Zhou Kui shook his head, and sat down in his seat again, "It's just a military road, in this Beijing City, it's not even a big official, so arrogant, I'm afraid it's not far from death." ”
"No, I heard that His Majesty summoned him a few days ago, and this time he is likely to be promoted to governor, this is Jane's person in the emperor's heart, how can he be unlucky?" Luo Yangxing pretended to be puzzled.
"There are many people in the emperor's heart, Sun Yuanhua, Yuan Chonghuan, Chen Xinjia, which one is not Jian in the emperor's heart?" Zhou Kui sneered. Zhou Kui has a deep understanding of the temperament of this emperor's son-in-law, and knows that he is extremely impatient.
"But this Chen Yue is a capable person, not only can he fight, not to mention, but he even has a set of business, which almost monopolizes the entire honeycomb coal in Beijing is his business, and my family is also using it, so it's really easy to burn." Luo Yang was amazed, if he didn't understand, he still thought that he really admired Chen Yue.
Hearing the honeycomb coal, Zhou Kui's face sank, and no one knew the bottom of the honeycomb coal better than him. At the beginning, Princess Kunxing asked him to borrow money in order to do honeycomb coal business with Chen Yue, but he was reluctant to lend her at that time, but who knew that Wu Sangui, who came to visit, came out and took the initiative to give Kunxing a few thousand taels of silver tickets.
If I was willing to lend Kunxing silver at that time, maybe I could get involved in the honeycomb coal business now, this is a profit of tens of thousands of taels of silver per month, and it is cheaper for this Chen Yue boy.
"If this Chen Yue is really unlucky, this huge honeycomb coal business will definitely not be able to be saved, Lord Guo, you and the emperor are the closest, maybe this business can fall into your hands." Luo Yangxing said with a smile.
Zhou Kui smiled bitterly when he heard this, how could others not know that the largest shareholder of honeycomb coal is Princess Kunxing, even if Chen Yue is really unlucky, this honeycomb coal business will definitely be in the hands of his son-in-law Chongzhen, how can Chongzhen let others take away his daughter's business, and most of the money earned from this business goes to Chongzhen, filling the emptiness of the inner library.
But what if Princess Kunxing is also unlucky? Kun Xing and Chen Yue are very close, many times in the name of visiting themselves to meet with Chen Yue, these Zhou Kui knows, if there is a minister impeachment Kun Xing misconduct, in private with the minister tryst, and partner business with the people to compete for profits, with Chongzhen's good face, he will definitely deny it, and then no matter how big the profit of the honeycomb coal business is, he will not care, at that time, as long as he talks to the daughter of the queen, this business will definitely fall into his hands.
But Kun Xing is his granddaughter, and the selected concubine Zhou Xian has just had a scandal, Chongzhen has already ordered to withdraw from the marriage, how can he bear to treat her like this! Zhou Kui couldn't help but hesitate.
