Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 146 Subduing Su Wenmao

In this way, a month passed quickly, and everyone felt that this month, at least four or five years of longevity could be lived.Fan Xian was also taken by them. He really thought that this set of radio gymnastics could prolong his life.

When the information came, it was at the end of the month, and it was already late autumn. Every day, a series of fallen leaves would be swept away at the gate of the prison.After the rustling sound of stepping on the leaves appeared, Fan Xian heard the footsteps and knew that the person coming was not simple. He tidied up briefly and then slowly stood up.Waiting for something.

As expected, the person who came in was Si Lili.

Fan Xian walked out, looked at Si Lili, and smiled slightly, and Si Lili smiled back, "How are you doing?"

"Thanks to you, it's quite good." Fan Xian smiled and led Si Lili to his room. The room is surrounded by curtains, which can be regarded as somewhat concealed, but Fan Xian did not close the curtains. Pull it down, lest those people start fantasizing about their deeds again.

"A letter from the West Hammer Border Pass." Si Lili said, "You have to leave."

"What's the bargaining chip?" Fan Xian really wanted to know how much he was worth in the eyes of the people of Northern Qi and Qing.

"As you wish, the death penalty will be executed, and then Qing and Qi's soldiers will each retreat [-] li." Si Lili said, and took out a secret letter.

Fan Xian opened the secret letter, and only then did he understand.

In the first confrontation, food and grass were forbidden for both sides, but after all, it was the elder brother who helped the younger brother to get ahead, so it was a matter of course for the younger brother to support the elder brother at this time, and the two sides entered the city to start repairing.

It is obvious that life on the Tubo side is much better than that of the Turkic tribe. When the recuperating army of the Qing Dynasty appeared, the Northern Qi Dynasty was still unprepared. The second prince directly sent troops to the north and sent all the people of the Tubo tribe to the city. Among them, a three-day and three-night siege began around the city.

But no matter how hard the second prince tried, the city was like an iron wall, unable to reveal its flaws, there was no way to enter, and even the second prince could not solve the problem by poisoning the river in the city.

At this time, another army of [-] soldiers from the Northern Qi Dynasty arrived and directly attacked the Tubo city, and killed a carbine from behind, causing the second prince to be attacked from both sides.

All the front and rear troops were deployed, and when Uesugi Tiger understood, he had already led the troops out, forcing the [-] troops into a desperate situation and blocking them in Fenghua Valley.

Fenghua Valley is in a desperate situation, you can enter forward, but you cannot retreat back, that is the way of the cliff, only Xihu people know how to get out from the back road.

Therefore, the second prince gathered all his troops and defended in Fenghua Valley. It is impossible for Uesugi Tiger to go in and kill the second prince. Not to mention Uesugi Tiger, even the Turkic people don’t know what kind of strange thing this place is. place.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack, criss-crossing.

At this moment, they were in a state of anxiety, so they proposed a negotiation. The condition of the negotiation was that the two sides negotiated a peace retreat for [-] miles, and the condition of the Qing Dynasty was to hand over Fan Xian.

All of this was in Fan Xian's thinking, and it was also expected by Fan Xian.

It is a very normal thing for the second prince not to be able to defeat Uesugi Tiger, even if it is so, no one will blame him, and this is the second prince of Qing, with noble blood, so it is not the second prince who forced the Northern Qi peace talks, but this At that time, at the junction of the Northern Qi Dynasty, an army of [-] was assembled.

Mighty, mighty and domineering!
Autumn maple leaves descended from the sky in a lazy arc, floated into the air, and then landed on the carriage. Fan Xian, Qu Han, Xiaoqing, and Su Wenmao sat leisurely in the carriage. Zhenzi was driving a carriage, sitting side by side with Wang Qinian, and the two had a heated discussion about the chest expansion exercise of the newly rising Sun Broadcasting Gymnastics.

This road is to directly enter the Western Frontier Pass, and the person who escorted Fan Xian in the Northern Qi Dynasty was Mr. Tongzhi, the deputy commander of Shangjing City of Jinyiwei.

If you want to come to know, you also know Fan Xian's battle under the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and he didn't restrain them much. Instead, he brought nearly a hundred Jinyi guards and placed them around Fan Xian's team of horses and horses, without giving him a single blow. A little chance to escape, at least Tongzhi thinks so.

Fan Xian looked at Su Wenmao, sized him up, and then asked, "How long have you been in the Sixth Place?"

Because of what happened to Teng Zijing, Fan Xian would be wary of the sudden appearance of the Overwatch Council killer. During this time, Fan Xian did not directly talk to this man, but secretly observed his every move, and thus came to some conclusions. Xinyang Falsifying the Secret Order of the Overwatch Council is not done once or twice. If you catch it once, Fan Xian doesn't know if you can catch it a second time. After all, the current Overwatch Council is not completely clean. It doesn't matter if Deng Ziyue infiltrates again, or other people, one must be on guard against others, and Fan Xian has never taken it lightly.

"It's been seven or eight years." Su Wenmao said, "After I was taken under the command of Master Shadow, I worked as a spy in the capital city for a year and a half, and then I went to the sixth office and entered the lower house of the Overwatch Council."

After talking about the House of Commons, Fan Xian knew that at least Su Wenmao was really a member of the Six Divisions.

The Lower House is a very secret organization of the Overwatch Council. Its level of secrecy is not much different from the archives of the Overwatch Council. Fan Xian only found out about this place after entering the Overwatch Council for more than a year. The Lower Court is not in the Overwatch Council. , but in a more secluded outskirts.

"After the assassination training in the lower court, he left the lower court a year and a half ago and continued to be assigned to the six divisions." Su Wenmao explained.

Fan Xian nodded his head, and then he relied on Su Wenmao's authentic and reliable information. Since the person is not a fake, it's time to ask questions. Fan Xian weighed it up, and then asked, "The shadow sent you here. ?”

"Yes." Su Wenmao replied, "I followed Lord Shadow to Cangzhou. At that time, I was responsible for your safety. I was the one who led the surprise attack team. Just let the surprise attack team follow your footsteps and enter, and then we have been secretly protecting your safety, and we will not end until we finally go out."

"So this jailbreak is also the shadow's intention?" Fan Xian asked.

"Yes." Su Wenmao said, "According to the information after your lord was arrested and imprisoned, Lord Shadow sent me a secret letter to send instructions. I originally escorted you all the way to Beiqi. Qingguo received the message at this juncture."

"So I came to the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice immediately. I came alone without any subordinates. I wanted to clarify the facts, but who would have thought that the defense and investigation capabilities of the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice in Northern Qi Dynasty were useless. , I was completely vulnerable, so I went directly into it, and only then did I meet my lord." Su Wenmao said guiltily, "I didn't know until I entered the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Get out of the passage and let me in, otherwise, I might still..."

"It doesn't matter." Fan Xian had a good impression of Su Wenmao in his heart. After all, in this day and age, self-knowledge is very precious. It is a very good habit to judge the situation if the person in front of you has such a sense of self-awareness.

Fan Xian looked at Su Wenmao again, and then continued, "Things in the world are impermanent, and it's normal to not expect them. You have the heart to think again, and the future can be expected."

This is Fan Xian's current high evaluation.

Su Wenmao looked at Fan Xian, and deeply felt the oppression from Fan Xian. That kind of coercion did not come from Fan Xian's few words, but from Fan Xian's entire aura when he spoke. I only saw it when I met Chen Pingping.

"This time you enter the border area of ​​the West Frontier, you can go with me, I will talk to Ying about this matter." Fan Xian said, "Since it's there, it's safe, don't think about other things, these few days Follow me for a month."

"Understood, Master Tisi!" Su Wenmao was very grateful, and he said immediately.

Fan Xian actually intended to win over Su Wenmao. After all, for Fan Xian, the shadow was also his subordinate, because Chen Pingping suddenly didn't know what was wrong this year. Among the news a few days ago, there was a piece of news about Chen Pingping, the director of the Overwatch Council. Fan Xian was successfully promoted to the position of vice president of the Overwatch Council.

Fan Xian has always found this strange. The Overwatch Council has never had the position and title of vice president. Now that such a hammer came suddenly, everyone is a little silly, because the Overwatch Council is actually one of the three provinces and six departments. Although he didn't point it out clearly, Fan Xian knew the branches of each dynasty and generation. He thought that he had to change the name of the special agency in Zhongshu Province, one of the three provinces, to make sense.

Just because he is special, the official position of the Overwatch Council is not an official position that can actually be attached to the generals of the Korean and Chinese military. Big and who is small?
For example, Fan Xian, the host of a first place, wanted to arrest Fan Jian, Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. According to the Qing Law, the Minister of the Household Department should be the third rank or the third rank. If he was granted a title, he would be the second rank. What kind of official is Fan Xian?
The Overwatch Council cannot directly arrest officials of the third rank and above, so this is very interesting. The minister of the Ministry of Industry is a third-rank official, but there are still fine divisions among them. For example, Yu Qin, he has not been knighted, so he is a genuine third-rank official. He has been an official for a long time, and he has just been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Industry for only three years. The Ministry of Officials has already entered the government and has reached the position of Minister of the Ministry of Industry. However, the Ministry of Rites has no record of promotion. He still wears the clothes of a fourth-rank official. So everyone also regarded him as a fourth-rank official.

He is also a transparent person. If he doesn't say anything, no one will pay attention.

This was what Fan Xian didn't understand.

In fact, what Fan Xian didn't know was that it was not that simple for Chen Pingping to approve the official document this time.

Thinking of Fan Xian here, of course he doesn't know what tricks Chen Pingping is up to. What he thinks about is often a chess move with a lot of moves. Fan Xian doesn't understand it for the time being, it's not a big deal.

In the Overwatch Council, under the entire Overwatch Council, people commanded nothing more than spies in the Overwatch Council, but there was only one person, Chen Pingping, the director of the Overwatch Council, who mobilized the black cavalry!

What is a black knight?It is a large-scale army that set up barracks independently outside the capital city and independently set up armaments, materials, and food supplies. They are Chen Pingping's personal soldiers, that is, they are under the orders of the two people in the world, His Majesty the Emperor of Qing Dynasty, and the Qing State Supervisor The two deans of the hospital.

There is a very interesting thing here, why does the director of the Overwatch Council have black knights?
People will definitely ask, for example, when the prime minister Lin Ruofu was still in office, there was such a question about the unification of the six ministries. Why can the head of the Overwatch Council have an army? Does that mean that all officials below can have an army? ?
Of course, when I asked, I must have been a little more tactful, but it was the same.

At that time, Emperor Qing was also furious, but he had no choice but to be reasonable, and the number of memorials was also very large.

No matter how good Emperor Qing was, it was impossible for him to kill all civil and military officials just because the other party asked a question, right?

So thought of a way, Ye Qingmei put forward a very good suggestion, only the director of the Overwatch Council can have a guard.

This directly turned the bodyguards into guards, in order to protect the most secret institution of the Qing Kingdom, the Overwatch Council.

This is to explain the attitude, and then there is a clear distinction between rewards and punishments. There is only one way to scare the civil and military officials below. The Overwatch Council can directly investigate officials below the third rank, and the royal family is not allowed to interfere in all matters of the Overwatch Council.It was also this trick that turned the Inspectorate and Dali Temple into a water truck and a dung truck.

In this way, the high official felt comfortable, since the Overwatch Council couldn't control him anyway, so of course he wouldn't go against Chen Pingping again, and those attached to the royal power also shut up, and their masters couldn't intervene anymore. What are you still fussing about?So the only ones who continue to make trouble are officials below the third rank.

Are these officials making trouble?Easy to handle, Chen Pingping started her first mopping up work in the city of Kyoto like a ghost entering a village, and after this time, there was no discussion.

To put it bluntly, this was Chen Pingping's only intention to promote Fan Xian as the vice president of the Overwatch Council.

Military power!

It's just that Fan Xian at this time still doesn't understand what it means.
