The Emperor is Above

Chapter 86 The miserable Dongmen brothers frightened the city guards (extra chapter for the helmsman Duzou Yipimao)

"It's really the two brothers Dongmen Hu and Dongmen Bao!"

When Daniu and Chai Yong carried the people over, Qing Yi saw that the two brothers from Dongmen were still unconscious, their bodies and faces were covered with whipping marks, a bloody mess was exposed under their tattered clothes, and the hideous wounds were still bleeding slowly.

"It was so tragic! Both arms and legs were broken, and several ribs were broken!"

Chai Yong had obviously checked the injuries of the two men long ago, and said with a worried look on his face, "He vomited a lot of blood before, and I guess his internal injuries are also serious."

Seeing the two brothers from Dongmen who had fought side by side in this state, Daniu said with a little sadness: "They must have been beaten and thrown here yesterday. Their injuries are so serious that they probably can't be saved."

"Luckily, the Xingshui Wharf is across the street, and the boats are brightly lit and bustling at night. Otherwise, these two people would have been dragged away and eaten by wild beasts last night."

Shi Dazhu asked Jiang Ji to take care of Niuniu, then he walked forward to check the injuries of the two, took out a jade bottle from his pocket, turned to Qing Yi and said:

"I have some healing elixir that my grandfather made himself. Let's give it a try, internally or externally. I can't guarantee whether it will be successful."

Qing Yi nodded: "The two brothers from Dongmen once fought side by side with me against the beastmasters of the Blood Wolf Tribe. We should try to save them. As for whether they can be saved, it depends on how strong their lives are."

While Qing Yi and Shi Dazhu were working together to rescue the man, Tun Shigu quickly freed up a side carriage and looked around with his little eyes blinking.

Then he came close to Qing Yi and whispered, "Brother, the two brothers from Dongmen are the caravan guards of Chunyu Yaqing's family after all, and they have made great contributions in protecting the caravan's property.

Regardless of whether they were injured by Chunyu or by others and left here, we will inevitably cause trouble if we try to treat them. We should load them into the car and leave. We can still treat them in the car."

After hearing Tu Shigu's reminder, Qing Yi looked around and saw many people looking around. He decisively ordered, "Let's go, carry Brother Dongmen to the car and continue the treatment on the way."

Fortunately, the ninety-mile road from the capital to Yeniu Pavilion is all flat and accessible, and the Dongmen brothers are lying in the car, so their injuries will not be aggravated by the bumpy road.

The quality of the elixir ointment that Shi Dazhu took out was indeed good. The wound stopped bleeding instantly after it was applied. An hour later, the breathing of the Dongmen brothers gradually stabilized.

Two hours later, many of the wounds were scabbing over, and it was obvious that the injuries had recovered well.

At dusk, when the convoy reached the Bison Pavilion, the Dongmen brothers finally regained consciousness and began to cry out in pain.

Qing Yi did not go to meet them immediately because he saw a team of city guards camping in the Well Square next to the Bison Pavilion.

Considering Ran You's reminder when leaving the city, it was obvious that this team of city guards came here to cause trouble. They had the duty to patrol the safety of the capital, so it was very convenient to cover up.

"This place has been requisitioned by the city guards. Outsiders are not allowed to approach!"

A captain walked out of the city guard camp, arrogantly approaching and ready to cause trouble. More than 200 city guard soldiers were on high alert, ready to attack at any time.

However, when he had only walked a few dozen steps, he saw Shi Dazhu riding a majestic wild horse with huge hooves. He shuddered and turned around and ran into the camp, hiding himself in a blink of an eye.

"I don't know. I thought I had encountered a rabbit. It ran so fast. When did the city guards do such a stupid thing as occupying the pavilion?"

Shi Dazhu came to the city guard camp with a huge sword in one hand and a horse in the other, looking down at the city guards with ulterior motives. Under Shi Dazhu's stern gaze, all the city guards lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

The soldiers might still be able to argue that they were just following orders, but the leading captains and Sima naturally had greater responsibilities, so they hid themselves and dared not show up.

Glancing at the crowd who dared not say a word, Shi Dazhu did not waste words with them and shouted, "You have surrounded the wells in your camp, so how can other carriages and horse teams draw water?
Hurry and move to the northwest. I will only wait for a quarter of an hour. If you don't obey, don't blame me for using force after courtesy."

After being rudely reprimanded, the city guards looked relieved. They honestly dismantled the camp and set up a new one twenty feet northwest of the square near the well.

"Brother Dazhu, these city guards were so arrogant that they wanted to provoke me. I didn't expect that you would scare them like quails as soon as you showed up. Could it be that they all know you?"

Facing Qing Yi's question, Shi Dazhu did not hide it and laughed loudly, "The city guard captain Qiu Yuan and I were classmates and friends at the Imperial College when we were young.

In the years since I graduated from the Imperial College, I have often gone to the City Guards camp to compete with him in martial arts, so the soldiers of the City Guards must know me, but I don’t know them.”

"Oh, I see!"

Qing Yi said thoughtfully, "No wonder when I had a conflict with the city guards outside the city gate that day, I felt that Qiu Yuan was speaking for me.

I didn't understand why before, but now I finally understand that I owe Brother Dazhu a favor."

"Hehe, why are you saying this? Qiu Yuan is very annoyed when he is the captain of the city guard. In name, he is the captain of the city guard, commanding 5,000 city guards, but in reality, he can only command more than 1,000 people!
The backgrounds of the battalion lieutenants, school lieutenants, and military officers of each department are very complicated. There are children of the four senior ministers, junior ministers, and even disciples of Qianye Weng. None of them is easy to serve. "

As Qiu Yuan's bad friend, Shi Dazhu not only had no sympathy on his face, but was full of gloating.
"Back then, the king wanted me to serve as the captain of the city guards. Fortunately, I listened to my grandfather and tried my best to decline the offer. Otherwise, I would have to suffer this punishment now."

This casual remark made Qing Yi look at Shi Dazhu a few more times. Perhaps the king wanted to appoint Shi Dazhu as the captain of the city guard army in order to use the old man Shi's prestige to take control of the military power of the city guard army.

But Shimen Sou probably didn't want to intensify the conflict with Qianye Weng and many noble clans, so he asked Shi Dazhu to decline the offer. This also shows that Shi Dazhu has already been a powerful man at the fourth level.

Since he had frightened off the city guards who were intent on provoking trouble, Qing Yi did not make any further fuss. He let Chai Yong and his caravan occupy the open space on the other side and did not set up camp on the top of the nearby hill.

After all, it is more convenient to get water close to the well, and with Shi Dazhu, a fourth-grade strongman, by my side, I don't believe anyone would be so blind as to attack us at night.

At this time, the Dongmen brothers had regained consciousness and were still lying on the fur cushions in the car. One advantage of a sidecar is that it can be assembled at will, and one side can be opened for ventilation.

Seeing Qing Yi striding over, the two men couldn’t help but burst into tears with regret: “Thank you corporal for your help again, my brother really hates you.

When the caravan was unfortunately destroyed, my two brothers transported the caravan’s property back and collected the bodies of everyone. Even if we didn’t make any credit, we still worked hard.

When we just returned home, Chunyu Dao, who was in charge of business affairs of the Chunyu family, did not blame us two brothers. Instead, he publicly praised our brothers for their contributions and gave us many rewards.

I didn't expect that yesterday, Director Chunyu suddenly arrested my two brothers, saying that my brother had embezzled the caravan's property, and tortured us mercilessly, and then threw us out of the city to fend for ourselves. But my brother was really wronged!"
