Chapter IX County Leader (Leader of the Alliance
The chaotic sound of horse hooves broke through the calm of Kuangyuan.
Look at the smoke and dust rising, at least a dozen horses were galloping.
After all, Gao Wu was born in the Qi family army and was always alert. He immediately whistled. A dozen strong men from Caijiaxiang immediately jumped out of the carriage, pulled out the iron rod from his waist, and protected Zhao Hao and the others' car.
"What's going on?" Zhao Hao poked his head out and looked from a distance.
"There are more than a dozen people riding a horse and chasing one." Gao Wu happened to organize the language.
"It's not a horse thief, right?" Hua Shuyang couldn't help but ask worriedly.
"Where is this? How could there be a horse thief?" Wang Wuyang glanced at him.
"It's hard to say. The capital just lifted the martial law last month." Wu Kangyuan looked at the team of people getting closer and closer, and held his sword tightly. "It's hard to guarantee that horse thieves pretended to be Tartars to make trouble."
This is also the reason why Gao Wu is so alert. The northern border of the Ming Dynasty has never been peaceful! The emperor guarding the country's gates is not just a false statement...
More than a dozen men from Caijiaxiang were repeatedly trained by Gao Wu along the way, and this was the case that he was guarding against.
When Gao Wu led his men to use the carriage as a barrier and formed a formation, the knights had already arrived.
Everyone held their breath and was ready, but after the cavalry that led the way passed by, the rest of the people chased each other and roared away without even looking at Zhao Hao and the others.
It turned out to be a false alarm.
As for why those people escaped and why they chased, it was not something Zhao Hao and the others needed to worry about.
It is serious to drive the carriage away and enter the city before dark.
~~
It was already noon.
Tongzhou is forty miles away from the capital, and the carriages are slower in ice and snow. It will take more than two hours to hurry up.
Everyone wanted to arrive in the capital before dark, otherwise the city gate would be frozen outside for a night, which would be a death.
But the more anxious I was, the more things went against my wishes. Everyone encountered a traffic jam halfway.
Looking at the cars and horses that were beyond your reach, Zhao Hao was going crazy. Has Beijing started traffic jams since the Ming Dynasty?
"Go and see, what's going on!"
He ordered, a man from Caijiaxiang ran forward and ran back panting. After a cup of tea, he ran back to report.
"Young Master, you have an official from Shuntian Prefecture who set up a checkpoint to check the car."
'Do you want to apply for a Beijing certificate?' Zhao Hao secretly complained in his heart and frowned and asked, "What are they checking? Are they collecting taxes?"
"It doesn't look like I'm looking for something." The man had sex with scouts when he was in the army and saw more things than ordinary people. "I think the real officials are not much worse, but most of them are like those of the rich slaves of some family."
"I'm afraid it's related to what happened just now." Zhao Hao sighed. It's not his turn to behave himself in Beijing, so he could only line up and move forward slowly.
After waiting for half an hour in the cold wind, Zhao Hao and the others saw clearly that more than a hundred steps ahead, four or five officials with bird-haired hair were blocked by an official wearing a sixth-grade uniform, led by a carriage that entered Beijing.
But the ones who went forward to search the vehicles were not those officials, but some warriors wearing variegated and fierce costumes.
It seems that something really happened, something amazing.
Zhao Hao had no intention of thinking about it, and just wanted to pass this section quickly, but there was a quarrel in front of him.
And it cannot be ignored.
Because one of them is Ying Tianlai's disciple.
When Zhao Hao and others got off the car, they saw the excited Shi Jinchen, Tang Hezheng and others blocked the warriors and prevented them from getting close to the carriage.
"Are you blind? I didn't see this being a bus with a yellow flag, so the government cannot search!"
"That's right, let us go quickly. Will we freeze to death if we close the city gate?!"
Those strong warriors were also anxious, but who dared to be vivid and rough at the emperor's feet?
They turned their eyes to the sixth-rank official.
The official secretly called unlucky, and took out the ticket card with his teeth and shook at the disciples: "I am the official who is the official of Shuntian Prefecture, and he will be granted the order of Shangfeng, and check all vehicles entering Beijing!"
"This yellow flag is a convenience given to us by the emperor. No one has ever checked it from south to north. You can't check it either!"
If Zhao Hao’s idea is to follow Zhao Hao’s idea, just go check it out. Just check it out quickly and get on the road.
But the juren attaches great importance to the privileges brought by this yellow flag, as if they are related to their dignity and are not allowed to discuss at all. They refuse to give in and accuse Shuntian Mansion of overcoming power. As a result, more and more people gather, blocking the half-way road out of the city is tightly blocked.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a team of people heading to Tongzhou came closer.
Seeing that the official and the juren were arguing endlessly, the entire road was blocked, and the guards at the forefront fired the Jingjie cannon.
A bang scared everyone.
But what is amazing is that both sides who are arrogant and arrogant have lost their temper.
Because those who are qualified to fire a number of people, except for the county-level officials, there are only senior officials above the fourth rank.
The pusher quickly turned around and looked at it, and couldn't help but be shocked.
It turned out that the guard riding on a tall horse was carrying an embroidered spring knife around his waist, and a corner of the flying fish suit was exposed under the burqa.
He was actually an officer of the Jinyi Guard.
Although the Jinyiwei's reputation has declined since Lu Bing's death, this dignified Jinyiwei only serves as a guard for the people behind...
The only people who can make the Jinyiwei act as guards are besides the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet and the Seven Ministers.
~~
No matter which one, it was not something he could afford. He hurriedly ordered people to clear their way, and went forward to explain with a smile.
The Jinyiwei was just a guard, and the main master was a pair of brothers and sisters surrounded by more than a dozen strong-fitting guards.
"It turned out to be the little lord and the county lord of the eldest princess's mansion." The magistrate hurriedly bowed and bowed.
The so-called little lord and the county lord were wearing a proud hunting suit, one riding a black horse and the other riding a red horse. They were all famous horses with no colors, agile body and long limbs.
Both of them were wearing thick cold-proof beeswax on their faces, and they were wearing solid winter clothes that only exposed their mouths and noses, and they could not tell their specific appearance and age.
After listening to the recommendation officer's explanation, their way was cleared by the official.
The little lord shook his whip and said, "We're leaving, let's do your job."
Listening to the sound is just like sixteen or seventeen years old.
The followers obeyed the orders and surrounded the two of them and wanted to go east.
When passing by those squads, the county lord suddenly saw the yellow flag on the carriage and couldn't help but say coldly to the squads: "Even I know, the squads' bus cannot be searched. You Shuntian Mansion is too domineering to do things."
"Sister, please stop meddling in other people's business." The little lord looked at his sister helplessly and urged: "If it's too late, you won't be able to reach the hunting ground."
"It's not bad for this time." The county lord's voice sounded even more immature, but he was a kind of Ren Xia. She gave her brother a blank look and said, "They have been in a long journey and have been able to arrive in the capital through hardships. Just welcome them like this? What you lose is the face of your uncle. Don't care if you see it?"
"Okay, okay, I'll take care of me." The little lord seemed to be afraid of his own girl, so he turned his head with a wry smile, glared at the thrust officer and said, "Why don't you let it go now!"
"Yes..." The prosecutor obviously did not dare to offend the brother and sister, so he hurriedly waved his hand and ordered the official to make way.
The warriors were unwilling to give up, but the swearing officer glared at him again, telling him not to act rashly.
