I thought a lot last night and stayed up almost all night. While I was tossing and turning, I could hear Hardy's snoring and Ning Boyang's light snoring in my ears. I don’t know much about the affairs of the court. I just feel that yesterday we were colleagues, but today we are going to fight. Life is really unpredictable, and people who know it well and people who don't know it can lie together. It's like being in the same bed but having different dreams. I gradually felt that I was just a chess piece, always being manipulated.
"Here we come, here we come!" Hardy said suddenly. We heard the call and went out. Sure enough, several fast horses galloped down the official road, closely guarding a car. They must be Mou Bin and others.
Tan Sheng's eyes were sharp and he whispered: "That's Ye Chengda in front! He's a master! What if we start fighting later?" Ning Boyang rolled his eyes at him and smiled, as if he was laughing at his fat body, and said: "This Needless to say, we listen to the commander-in-chief!" Those people gradually approached, less than thirty steps away from us, and stopped, as if they knew we were here, and stopped moving forward. When Liu Tong heard our words, he turned around and made a shut-up gesture, indicating that we should ambush and not act rashly. I was overjoyed. If they didn't come, we wouldn't have to do anything.
When I was happy, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves on the official road, and someone shouted: "Master Mou, walk slowly, Master Li will give you some money, I hope you accept it!" It turned out that someone came to deliver something, and I was happy for nothing. .
A sigh came from the sedan, and then the people and belongings were put away. The person who came was dressed as a family member. He whispered a few words, but we didn't hear them clearly, and then he left.
Ye Cheng shouted loudly, and these people continued to move forward, while he walked in front. Liu Tong was overjoyed and gestured to everyone to wait for the attack.
Ye Chengda urged his horse forward to explore the road ahead. As they gradually walked in, the stumbling rope suddenly pulled up. Ye Cheng was riding fast, but as soon as he raised the reins, the horse stood up. After a few long roars, it actually jumped over the stumbling rope. Then Ye Cheng shouted: "There is an assassin! "
With a whistle, Liu Tong and others rushed out first and quickly surrounded them. Ye Chengda commanded the people behind to protect the official sedan, jumped off the horse, drew his sword, glanced at everyone, and said, "Who are you?"
Liu Tong didn't say anything. With a wave of his hand, these people rushed forward with various weapons. I waved my hand again, signaling for us to come out too. I had to lead everyone to rush out, but we only surrounded them outside. The previous few people tried their best to move forward. When Ye Chengda saw that there were many of us, he fought and retreated, but he didn't panic and knocked down several brothers with his hands and feet. He held a sword in his left hand to protect the official sedan, and we still surrounded him.
I had been thinking about whether to step forward, but Gu Dachun next to me bluffed a few times, stepped back, came to my side, and whispered: "This man has great kung fu, we should be careful and let others come up!" He rushed at me again! I pursed my lips to the back and said, "There are more powerful people over there, waiting!" I took a breath, it seemed that Mou Bin was doomed today!
Seeing that we were not moving forward, Ye Chengda said loudly: "Who are you? Do you dare to rob and kill an official of the imperial court in broad daylight?" Liu Tong thought about it and said: "The mountains here are high and the forests are dense. Killing someone is unknown to outsiders. It's unfair. There is a debtor and an owner, it’s just that Mou Bin has offended too many people, we only want Mou Bin’s head, you can leave, we will never stop you!”
Ye Chengda sneered and said: "Don't think about it! Whoever is not afraid of death, come up!" Suddenly someone coughed and said: "I have retired and returned to my hometown. I don't want you to still chase me! I am not afraid of death, but you tell me, Who ordered you here? Looking at your skills, they must be the brothers of Jin Yiwei!" As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh a few times, but an old man in casual clothes came out of the sedan, with a thin face and white hair and beard.
This man is Mou Bin, the famous commander of the Jinyi Guards. He seems to be an easy-going elder. Liu Jin wanted to kill him, but I really don't know where she offended him?
Liu Tong was a little embarrassed. He had just gone there when Mou Bin was the commander, and he had risen from a school captain to a hundred households. Although there were many Jinyi guards, Mou Bin saw his identity and should not talk about it. Liu Tong seemed to hesitate for a moment, then pulled off the black scarf, cupped his hands slightly, and said: "Master Mou, my subordinate Liu Tong, on the order of Eunuch Liu, came..." He didn't know how to continue.
"Haha! I guessed it was Liu Jin. Very good. You still recognize me as the commander. Very good. You guys came to kill me. Ye Qianhu and the others sent me away kindly. They have nothing to do with this matter, so don't hurt me. Innocent!"
Ye Cheng said anxiously: "Master Mou, how can I let my subordinates do nothing?" Mou Bin smiled brightly and said: "I, Mou Bin, have always been upright. In the past, no one died in vain in the prison of Zhenfusi. Today, the world is clear, and I Mou Bin will not lead others! Now there is an invasion of foreign enemies in Shaanxi. You are ordered to go to detect the enemy. Kindly send me off. If you get into this problem halfway, if there is a shortcoming and national affairs are delayed, I will do the same in love and courtesy. I feel guilty, please retreat quickly!"
It turned out that the little Mongolian prince led his troops to harass the border due to the death of Emperor Hongzhi, and had already entered the country from Guyuan. Although the imperial court promoted Yang Yiqing, the imperial censor, to be the chief of the three sides, it also sent Qianhu Tuzhang, the Jin Yiwei, to lead people to investigate at the border. This Ye Chengda belongs to Tu Zhang, so he naturally has to accompany him. Out of favor, Ye Chengda came to see Mou Bin off, not wanting to be intercepted and killed by us.
After listening to this, I couldn't help but admire this Mou Bin. I remembered what Eunuch Zhang told me. It seemed that they also cherished each other. It's just that Liu Tong and others are present, so he can't help himself.
Liu Tong knew Ye Chengda's ability. He hesitated for a moment, saw that there were only ten of them, and said cruelly: "As long as Lord Ye doesn't interfere, my subordinates will never be in trouble."
Ye Chengda sneered and said: "Liu Jin always takes revenge. Although he is now in power, since we dare to come forward, we will never be afraid of his revenge. Mr. Mou, don't worry, today we will fight with the brothers of Jin Yiwei." Even if we lose face, we will never retreat. Brothers, we used to work in the same yamen, work together, eat and live together, and some may have shared joys and sorrows. If I have offended you today, I hope you will forgive me!"
I can't help but admire him. I am not very familiar with this Ye Chengda. I only meet and say hello occasionally. Not wanting to be so arrogant and righteous, the new emperor ascended the throne, and his former subordinates Liu Jin and others gradually gained power, especially Liu Jin, who had already taken the position of eunuch Bingbi. Although he was not the leading eunuch, he still held great power and was the minister of the DPRK. They didn't dare to speak loudly. Although I admire Ye Chengda for being so fearless, I am also secretly worried. There are more than thirty people in our group, and there is another group not far away. Even if he agrees to stand by and watch, I am afraid that he will be silenced. Things are inevitable.
Ye Chengda's words made us look at each other. Liu Tong looked at us and said reluctantly: "Since Ye Qianhu thinks so, we have no choice but to offend him. We are ordered by the palace to intercept and kill the traitor Mou Bin. Anyone who dares to stop him will be punished." Kill without mercy!"
As he spoke, Liu Tongyang raised the knife in his hand and motioned for everyone to join him. Ning Boyang looked at me, I shook my head gently, but no one moved. Several of Liu Tong's men rushed forward. At this point, the two sides stopped talking about face and started fighting. The eight people brought by Ye Chengda seemed to have martial arts backgrounds, and they guarded the car nervously. Mou Bin stood there, unmoving. A whistling wind blew by, making the woods even quieter.
Although Ye Chengda is a top-notch master, Liu Tong and others entangled him and couldn't take care of Mu Bin. Seeing that I had not moved, Liu Tong shouted anxiously: "Zhang Ying, do it quickly, don't let them escape." One sentence reminded everyone, and Ye Chengda shouted: "Master Mou, hurry up Get in the car and leave quickly.”
Mou Bin looked at the people fighting in full swing, with more and more wounded. Although Ye Chengda was brave, we were outnumbered and gradually retreated. Unconsciously, he sighed heavily and said loudly: "Everyone, stop it!" There was no lack of majesty in his voice. , everyone stopped and Mou Bin said: "Liu Jin wants to kill me, why do you kill each other? Chengda, don't miss your future for me. I don't regret dying, so you'd better leave quickly!"
Ye Chengda shook his head and said: "Master Mou, even if I die today, I will never let these people hurt you!" Mou Bin laughed and said: "You are my good brother, but they are also my former brothers. Jin Yiwei cannot kill each other. Liu Tong, Liu Jin, do you want my head, or me as a person?"
Liu Tong's face turned red and he stammered: "This, this, Eunuch Liu wants your head."
"Okay, then I will help you, but I hope you don't make it difficult!" Liu Tong glanced at Ye Chengda, cupped his hands and said, "Of course, as long as Master Ye doesn't stop me, I will definitely not say anything about this. Hi, I It's also an order from above, don't you dare disobey!" Ye Cheng said curiously: "Your boss is Liao Jianzhong, could it be that he sent you to kill Lord Mou?"
