One hundred and forty-two armed guards
"What you say makes a lot of sense, but what you want to convey is that you suspect that the place of the murder was inside the palace?!"
A question, Li Erbixia was a little angry: "What you said earlier is true, since this is the case, then the needle must be an important clue, where there is a pine tree, it is worth investigating, but the palace is heavily guarded, where can ordinary people enter?" Each gate out of the palace is closely guarded, day and night patrols, if there is a killing, it will definitely be detected, how can this be? Besides, where would a thief be bold enough to commit murder in the palace? And how to transport the body to Yongning Fang to throw the body? How do they act? You're giving me an explanation! ”
It seems that Li Erbixia is quite satisfied with his palace defense system, but there is no impermeable wall in the world, and there are always some places that Li Erbixia can't notice and defend, unless he can transfer 100,000 troops to garrison the imperial city, and there can be one person stationed in every square meter, then it is ......
Wait a minute!
Another small ray of light flashed, and the skill cooldown of Conan's aura ended, and Suning lit up Conan's aura again, activated the skill, and captured a key factor that was ignored by both him and Li Erbixia......
Tunnel......
In the past, when I watched TV dramas, no matter what TV series it was, as long as it was a big family, it seemed that there was a habit of digging out the secret room in the tunnel, and I always liked to make a secret passage in an inconspicuous place, leaving it for emergencies, in case of an emergency, I could escape or hide important materials. With thousands of years of history in China, the land of Shenzhou does not know how many tunnels and secret rooms have been beaten, which has almost become an unspoken rule.
Chang'an has become an important city since very early times, the Zhou Dynasty was the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty, but at that time it was called Hojing, the Western Han Dynasty began to become the imperial palace of the Han Dynasty for more than two hundred years, and gradually declined after the Eastern Han Dynasty, and was occupied by the minority regime as the capital during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, or the capital, and the Sui Dynasty was also the capital. After arriving in the Tang Dynasty, it is also the national capital. I don't know how many dynasties are the political centers, and the location of the palace is generally the same, so it is necessary to say that there are no secret passages and secret rooms in the palace. killed Li Erbixia and Suning didn't believe it. Li Erbixia must know a lot of secret ways. There must be a secret passage he made himself.
So Suning said two words very seriously: "Secret way!" ”
Sure enough, as soon as these two words came out, Li Erbixia's face immediately changed. Suning also found that Wang De's eunuch's face had also changed, and Suning continued: "Since the appearance of the Mo family's mechanism technique, although the Mo family has not been adopted, the Mo family's mechanism has been mostly adopted to make exquisite things, which not only includes armaments, but also secret passages and secret rooms, bixia, not only the Tang Dynasty is in Chang'an Dingdu.
As early as the Zhou Dynasty, it was already the capital, the same was true of the former Han Dynasty, and the same was true of the former Sui Dynasty, not to mention foreign races, more, so Chang'an has long been the capital of many countries, if there is no emperor or courtier to open up tunnels and secret rooms in Chang'an, the minister is categorical and unbelievable! Moreover, the minister can't believe that every palace in the palace has people living and being guarded, bixia, do you say yes? ”
Li Erbixia's face changed several times, and said to Wang De: "You immediately go to investigate, where are the pine trees in the palace, mainly in the abandoned palace that is uninhabited, and give me an answer as soon as possible!" Be careful, don't startle the snake! ”
Wang De immediately walked out of the study as soon as he bowed, his steps were brisk, and he walked like floating, Suning felt that the martial arts of this dead eunuch were not ordinarily high, and he was definitely a practitioner, and Suning thought to himself that there was no way to compete with this dead eunuch, this guy was really strong, otherwise Li Erbixia would not let him be a personal eunuch, Li Erbixia himself has a high level of martial arts.
Watching Wang De leave, Li Erbixia's heart fell into a tangle, this situation has exceeded his expectations, who would have thought that a person who died in Yongning Fang would be touched by Suning Shunteng into the palace? If something is really found, this is really terrible, who dared to commit a crime in the palace, who was the mastermind? Courtiers? It's impossible, they don't have the guts, they must be their opponents, the seven sects and five surnames? It's not very likely, who will it be? I even know who the secret passage in the palace is that I don't even know about. Former Sui remnants? Or which is the descendant of the king all the way? Want revenge?
After thinking about it, Li Erbixia couldn't think of any important clues, he had too many enemies, and there were too many enemies killed by him, so that sentence was right, life is like a seesaw, if you want to go to the highest position, either someone will volunteer to put you at the bottom and raise the highest position for you, or, it is to kill your enemies and use their corpses to build a way to the highest position for you, Li Erbixia has reached the high position of the supreme in the world, and the people killed can be imagined.
Suning didn't know what Li Er Bixia was thinking, he still had one more thing to report to Li Er Bixia: "Bixia, in addition to this matter, the minister has one more thing that he wants Bixia to approve." ”
Li Erbixia looked at Suning: "What's the matter?" ”
Suning said: "The minister's family is sparse, only the eldest brother Su Lie and the minister are two men, but there are four female dependents, if the servants in the family are not counting the craftsmen, there are less than fifty people, and the stronger ones are less than twenty people, if those thieves are really targeting something in the Su Mansion, the minister is not afraid of himself, nor is he afraid of the eldest brother, but he is afraid of his mother, aunt, sister-in-law and little sister."
What's more, the minister's family often needs to act separately, and the guards at home are even more insufficient, but there are really a lot of things in the minister's mansion that are very important to Datang, and once it leaks out, the consequences are unimaginable, so the minister asks to increase the number of armed guards in the mansion. ”
Because of some unwritten rules and unspoken rules, Li Erbixia has paid considerable attention to the number of armed guards in the homes of various courtiers, not only strictly restricting them for various reasons, but sometimes reducing them by various means, so there are not many armed guards in the homes of the major nobles in Chang'an.
Armed guards are basically private military liliang, from ancient times to the present, there is still a great influence on the inheritance of the family system, such as the Warring States Period and the Three Kingdoms Era, when the family liliang was very strong, the number of private soldiers of each big family was very huge. There is also a system of pro-soldiers and subordinates of the generals in the army, that is, the personal armies of the generals, not the state and the emperor.
With the advancement of history and the decline of the family liliang, the situation of the family private soldiers has become a lot reduced, at least it can no longer exist regularly, especially the nobles in the army, because of their huge military exploits and prestige, they are especially concerned by the emperor, so the existence of the private soldiers of the trilogy is also very sensitive, and it is extremely easy to be put on the line. The fox-like Cheng Biting Jin and Li Shiji have already let all the troops brought by the army in the family return to the army. Only the non-military liliang of the family and the domestic servants were left to reduce the emperor's attention, which shows Li Erbixia's fear of private armies.
Armed guards also belong to the category of private armed forces, and they are detached from the attributes of the military. No more military status. It's simply more personal. But because of the lack of numbers and combat capabilities, Li Erbixia did not pay so much attention, whether it was a civil official or a military attaché. During this period, the private armed liliang were limited to fifty people, and basically there were no more than fifty people with a little brain, although there was no explicit rule, but everyone was complying with it.
Su Dingfang and Suning obviously became one of the military attachés and nobles, the owners of the founding title obtained through military merits, but Su Dingfang did not have an armed guard, and Suning only had five personal soldiers who came back from the army, which was specially approved by Li Jing when Suning made great contributions to leave the army.
Later, some family members were recruited, and Li Shiji and Li Jing's mansion also sent some servants, but they were all dedicated to serving people, and there were almost no people available, and there were only a dozen or so who could be a little manly, plus the hob meat in the five armies, a total of no more than twenty people, for the Su family, a special military attache and noble family with one marquis and one uncle, it was still a few.
In other prefectures, although there are only 50 armed guards in the formal sense, who knows how many can be used for battle in secret? It's like Zhang Liang, who was going to rebel later, that two or five boys, five hundred fakes! When his mother's trilogy exceeded the upper limit, he changed to Yizi, so as to expand the battle liliang, in fact, the number of people who can fight in Zhang Liang's mansion will not be less than eight hundred, which can basically be regarded as a military liliang with a considerable level.
But Su Mansion is too few, less than twenty people are full, so Suning has no ability to maintain the defense system of Su Mansion at all, once it is attacked, it will be broken through the rhythm every minute, and the lives of the family and the important farm sugar workshop are still missing?
Although it may be doubted by Li Erbixia, it is better to bring it up in person than to secretly increase it after being investigated by Li Erbixia, Suning chooses to do everything under Li Erbixia's nose, openly, and tell you what I want to do directly, which can also reduce Li Erbixia's doubts about himself to the highest extent, isn't it? Although he is only fourteen years old, he is not a person who can do bad things in any way......
Li Erbixia narrowed his eyes, didn't speak for a while, and then said: "This is also true, your family of two men lives together, but there are less than twenty people to protect it, and there are four female dependents, so many important things, it is indeed a little insufficient, in this case, I agreed, you recruit fifty guards by yourself, and you are allowed to protect Su Mansion with weapons, in addition, during this period, I will also send some people to secretly protect Su Mansion, and your safety can basically be guaranteed." ”
Suning breathed a sigh of relief, there may be a protective ingredient in it, but it's not just protection, right? Isn't there an ingredient in the monitor? Forget it, I didn't do anything bad, if you want to monitor, just monitor, there is nothing unsightly in Su Mansion, the mobile phone has always been carried with me, hidden in the pocket of the underwear, I won't let you know, and the rest, it's nothing.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, I got the right to recruit fifty guards in one go, but it is extremely haode, now Su Xiaomei's guards don't have to worry, don't worry about the farm and sugar workshop, and don't worry about the lack of guards at home when you go out, the safety of Su Mansion is guaranteed, and besides, among those who secretly protect and monitor Su Mansion, there must be masters, enough to compete with those who are secretly peeping at Su Mansion, and Sun Ning is finally a little relieved.
