Chapter 212

"You're so poor, and you still bring servants!"

With his mouth wide open, the official in charge of registration pointed at Cheng Dalei's rusty armor, and his deliberately contrived expression was to let everyone hear.

Cheng Dalei has gone to the place where the examiner has reported at this moment, in fact, there is quite a lot of article about which yamen is in charge of the martial arts. The Ministry of War said, "We are naturally responsible for the reward for selecting and leading soldiers to fight", and the Ministry of Officials said, "We have always been responsible for selecting officials", and the two families were in trouble, which involved many entanglements of interests, and involved the dispute between civil officials and military generals, which was really unevenly divided, and finally Emperor Ming spoke: Then choose the office location in the imperial city, and the two families are jointly responsible.

Therefore, the height of the temple is really not something that Cheng Dalei, a thief, can understand.

Now he is in the imperial city, surrounded by examiners who have come to report, and it looks like there are hundreds of people. The official in charge of registration pointed at Cheng Dalei and laughed, attracting the attention of others to Cheng Dalei.

Looking at his outfit, everyone inevitably had a smile on their faces, and the officials of Chang'an City were still very self-contained and did not laugh out loud.

Xu Ling'er and Xu Shenji stood behind Cheng Dalei, and they both felt embarrassed at the moment.

"It's a shame. ”

"I didn't come with him if I knew I wouldn't have come. ”

Cheng Dalei handed over his official seal letter, and his face did not change.

"Let's see if there's a problem?"

"What's the problem, you're the only one like a poor man, your armor is an antique, older than your grandfather, right? ”

The official didn't compare Cheng Dalei's appearance at all, and directly registered Niu Sanjin's name on the book, with a smile in his mouth.

"You don't have a problem, I still have a problem. Cheng Dalei put away himself, or it can be said to be Niu Sanjin's official certificate.

"What's wrong with you?" the officer's eyes widened.

Cheng Dalei stretched out his hand suddenly, grabbed his neckline, and directly pulled him out from behind the table. A punch smashed his face and blood spilled out of his nose.

Everyone was stunned.

Officialdom is a decent place, and everyone is intriguing behind their backs, but on the surface, they need to maintain their demeanor. A guard like Cheng Dalei who came from the border gate, poor and without a backstage, came to the whirlpool of the sea in Chang'an, and he didn't know how to pick up his tail and be a man, and he dared to beat the officials at the feet of the Son of Heaven.

"It's the other way around, it's the other way around!" the bleeding official shouted, "Janissaries, the Praetorian guards have arrested him, and I will cut off his head." ”

Xu Shenji and Xu Ling'er were also taken aback, they came to Chang'an from the remote Youzhou, and now they are in the imperial city, only a few miles away from the Son of Heaven, and their hearts are inevitably filled with a sense of inferiority of a hillbilly entering the city. But I didn't expect that I hadn't seen it for a year, how could the big boss become so violent.

The people around him looked at Cheng Dalei with mocking eyes just now, but now their eyes have become pitiful.

"After all, it's from a remote place, and I really don't know the rules. ”

"Beating the officials of the court, this alone is enough for him to be killed. ”

Seven or eight people came in from the guards responsible for the security of the imperial city, and immediately surrounded Cheng Dalei, and the junior colonel led by him helped the official up.

The official couldn't wait to pounce on Cheng Dalei, and said angrily: "This dog thief dares to beat me, escort him down, beat him to death, and let him know that the sky is high and the earth is thick." ”

Seeing that Cheng Dalei was about to be taken away, a person suddenly walked in from outside the door.

"Master Meng, who reversed, and who did you beat to death?"

Seeing him come in, the surroundings were suddenly quiet, this person's name is Bailisheng, from the fourth rank of Xuanwu general, Feng Chang Zhongbo, military general.

"Your Majesty is ruling with a bow, the country and the people are safe, Haiyan is peaceful, Lord Meng, tell me, at the foot of this imperial city, who is against it, and who dares to oppose it?"

"This ......," Master Meng was taken aback.

"You are a mere six-grade Zhongcheng, who are you going to beat to death?" Bailisheng took a step forward, and the pressure suddenly came out.

Cheng Dalei was also a little unclear, so he didn't know why this sudden Bailisheng wanted to help him.

Chang Zhongbo was angry. ”

Another person walked out of the door, wearing a civil official uniform, this person's name is Song Tianhan, a four-grade imperial history, no honor, and a civil official.

"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, the temple is heavy, this person is the captain of the ninth grade, and beating the sixth grade Zhongcheng is the following offense. Lord Meng lives here, just to share the worries of His Majesty, and his people are disrespectful to Lord Meng, that is, they are disrespectful to His Majesty, and if they don't look at Lord Meng in their eyes, they will not ......" Song Tianhan pursed his lips and smiled: "Also, I would like to advise Uncle Chang Zhong, they are all officials of the empire, no matter how big or small they are, there is no such thing." ”

One has a solemn expression, and the other is smiling like a spring breeze, but it is the tip of the needle to the wheat, and the saber is tense.

Cheng Dalei was a little confused, what were the two doing.

Cheng Dalei didn't know that he had already stepped into the front line of the struggle between the two major interest groups in the empire after only one step.

The dispute between civilian and military officials.

Civil officials are often from families, and military generals rely on military merits to climb, and the two families have always been on the tip of the needle. And this martial move, and at the same time pry the cake of the two families, they have already broken their heads in private.

That Meng Zhongcheng represents the civilian-official group, and he has two sentences of ridicule in every martial artist, but everyone abides by the decency of officialdom and does not have a dispute with him. And when he encountered Cheng Dalei, who obviously had a slot, he naturally complained about his ability MAX, but he didn't expect that Cheng Dalei's fist was really hard.

Bailisheng is not to help Cheng Dalei, Song Tianhan also has no enmity with Cheng Dalei, Cheng Dalei is just a battlefield for the two to fight.

As soon as the representatives of the two major factions appeared, the examiners present were divided into two groups, almost facing the posture of scolding the street. I have to say that the strength of civil officials is superior, scolding people to quote scriptures, from opening the world to eating a bowl of tofu brain for breakfast, and the generals are all clumsy and clumsy men. His face was flushed with anger, his eyes kept looking left and right, and the subtext was: Where is my knife, what about my knife......

"Then let Dali Temple take this person into custody for the time being, and execute him according to law after asking the reason. Song Tianhan smiled slightly, quite a feeling that after finishing the work, you fell down before I could contribute.

"It must be done strictly, ruthlessly!" Meng Zhongcheng gritted his teeth and said.

The civil official is triumphant, the military general is depressed, and Bailisheng is also very depressed, he is eloquent, but his teammates are really not strong.

"Captain Niu, do you need to defend yourself?" Bai Lisheng glanced at Cheng Dalei, but he actually hated it in his heart.

I saw that Cheng Dalei's face did not change color and his heart did not beat, and his cold eyes scanned the audience, and he suddenly had a feeling that he was invincible to all the scum.

Under the gaze of everyone, he slowly took off the rusty iron helmet on his head, and his voice became deep, vicissitudes, and a long sigh from time to time.

"I think I can answer Lord Meng's previous question, this armor does have a long history, it has been passed down from generation to generation by my Niu family, and finally passed on to me by my father. It's been a long time, but I'm not ashamed of it, but I love it. ”

Cheng Dalei stroked the helmet, like stroking his lover's cheek.

"My father once wore it to kill the Rong people, my grandfather used it to block bows and arrows, and Taizu used it as a shield to protect the people behind him. It has been stained with the blood of the Rong clan, as well as the blood of the ancestors of my Niu family. And now it's very worn, and to be honest, I don't have the money to make a new armor. However, when the Rong clan fights, I will also wear him to the battlefield and repeat what the ancestors of the Niu family have done. ”

"I want to ask Master Meng, is this ridiculous?" Cheng Dalei was impassioned, with tears in his eyes: "No, it's glory." ”

I rub!

Bailisheng's eyes widened instantly: It's a talent!

Cheng Dalei swept over the people who despised him with extremely disdainful eyes, and there was only one sentence churning in his heart.

"Is it true that my eloquence skills were given in vain?"
