Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 187
Li Ce received a report early this morning, saying that the merchants in Yujie had gone on strike. Now the whole Yujie is in chaos. The head Wang Renjing is in a hurry to ask the Dianqian Division for support.

Palace Marshal Fan Tingzhao is not in the camp at this time, and the other Fanjun understand that this matter is no small matter, no one is willing to go into this muddy water, and they dare not mobilize the army on the pretext that there is no transfer order.

"My lord, the nearest to the Royal Street is the Forbidden Army of the Dianqian Division. What's more, the Wansheng Army has the responsibility of patrolling the capital. You can't just sit idly by when something like this happens." Wang Renjing is also You old man, he said this to drag the chief minister into trouble. If things get serious, then our yamen will not be the only one to bear the crime of ineffective security, and your chief minister will also be responsible for it!
Ge Huaimin, the commander of the Dianqian Commander, looked at Wang Renjing suspiciously. This yamen catcher has a sharp mouth, but he wanted to make the Dianqian take over this hot potato, which is really abominable!If he insists on not sending troops, if someone finds out in the future, he will also have to sue himself, but there are mixed fish and dragons in the imperial street. It is said that this incident was provoked by Zhao Ji, the king of Xiaoyuan. This muddy water is not easy to wade through...

Ge Huaimin glanced at the commanders-in-chief of the various armies. Everyone seemed to have nothing to do with them. It seemed that everyone's heart was very clear. No one wanted to step into this muddy water. He was secretly wondering who to send. Li Ce, who was standing at the end, suddenly raised the corner of his mouth.

"Here, since Catcher Wang said that the Wansheng Army is responsible for patrolling the capital, Li Ce, you can go with Catcher Wang." Ge Huaimin said.

Li Ce didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns here, isn't it just a few merchants making trouble?No matter how big a thing is, he is too embarrassed to bother the imperial army, he cupped his hands and said: "This subordinate, go and call your subordinates."

When Wang Renjing saw that the commander-in-chief of the Wansheng Army was so young, he was a little reluctant. The situation in the Royal Street was complicated, and many high-ranking officials had their properties there. Now their servants were making a big fuss, and there were also some scholars who didn't know why. Followed by booing, the situation is so chaotic, can sending such a young man to calm down the scene?

Li Ce saw his doubts, and couldn't help but said in a cold voice: "Captain Wang, do you want to go? If you don't go, our Wansheng Army has other things to do, and I don't have time to spend time here with you." How dare you Looking down on me, Li Ce was angry, young doesn't mean incapable!
Wang Renjing said embarrassingly: "Whatever your lord said, it's not too late. Let's go quickly."

"Di Qing, lead you to command 2000 people to follow me to take a look." Li Ce said.

The Royal Street is like a chaotic vegetable market at this time, the bustling and grandeur of the past is gone, just like a chaotic concert scene, the officials of Kaifeng Mansion are struggling to maintain law and order, and the merchants are unwillingly trying to rush the officials. blockade.

Many of the shops on Imperial Street belonged to high officials of the imperial court. The reason why the rioting merchants were so arrogant was also the instigation of these high officials. The yamen servants naturally understood this truth, so they tried their best to persuade them and did not dare to suppress them.

However, apart from the yamen servants of Kaifeng Mansion, there is another group of officers and soldiers. It seems to be some fan army of the Guards and Infantry Division. This imperial army is not as restrained as the yamen servants. Take a long gun and hit the troublemaker merchants violently, whoever comes forward will beat him up!
"The Forbidden Army of the Great Song Dynasty actually oppressed their own people like this, do you still have the law?" A group of scholars here angrily shouted.

When the general of the Imperial Army saw the group of scholars, he straightened his face and said, "The merchants are making trouble, what's the fault of you scholars? Leave your good sage books and don't read them, and come here to make trouble!"

"The whole Royal Street is on strike, and there is nowhere to buy a pen, ink, paper and inkstone. How can you still study?" a scholar shouted.

"The purpose of my study and fame is to serve the court. Now there are people who extort money so violently that they disregard the entire wealth of the Great Song Dynasty in order to satisfy their personal desires. As citizens of the Great Song Dynasty, how can we sit idly by?" Another scholar shouted.

Now the capital is full of rumors, saying that Xiao Yuan Wang Zhao Ji lost all his family betting on the Cuju game, and now he is frantically amassing money everywhere.

The general of the Forbidden Army said with a cold face: "Don't be shameless! Don't teach others just because you have read two broken books. I don't care whether you can read or not!"

All the scholars were furious when they heard that he insulted the gentleman, and some people were filled with righteous indignation: "Ignorant and ignorant!"

When the general heard that these poor people dared to insult him openly, he was instantly furious. He pointed at the scholars and ordered: "Come on, drive these rotten scholars out!"

The officers and soldiers got the orders and held up their spears and began to drive away the scholars. The scholars were very talkative. If they really wanted to make a move, they were the opponents of this group of officers and soldiers. Someone tried to resist twice, but was severely beaten. Some of the scholars He was so angry that he kept yelling at the officers and soldiers, but he was pulled out and took care of them alone until all of them were beaten to death.

When all the scholars saw their companions being beaten like this, they rushed to the blood, and regardless of elegance, they all rolled up their sleeves and fought with the officers and soldiers. As soon as these scholars took the lead, merchants also joined in the camp of resistance. As soon as it came, the whole scene was completely out of control!All kinds of rotten vegetables and rotten eggs are flying all over the place.

The officers, soldiers and generals couldn't help being even more furious when they saw that a group of unscrupulous people dared to openly defy the officers and soldiers!The reason why these people dared to resist was because those scholars led the way. He glanced at the scholars coldly, and ordered: "Put all these troublesome scholars into prison!"

"Let go of me, let go of me!" The scholars struggled and shouted.

"Let you make trouble!" The officers and soldiers cursed and served with fists and kicks.

"Stop!" A loud roar sounded like thunder.

There was commotion outside the crowd, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Accompanied by a burst of yelling, the crowd parted a passage, and a young man in brocade clothes came out with his hands behind his back, followed by a group of officers and soldiers in armor.

The previous officer and general looked sideways at the young man and said, "Which division are you from the imperial army?"

The young man didn't answer him, he pointed to the scholar lying on the ground with a cold face and said: "Is it your order?"

"Yes, these people..."

"Slap!" A loud slap!

"You! Do you dare to hit me?"

"I don't care which department you belong to, who is the master? Don't act like this! If you have the ability to go to the border to fight the Liao army, what's your ability to deal with unarmed scholars!" The young man said coldly.

The general of the forbidden army was scolded all over his face by him, he couldn't help being a little puzzled, seeing that this young man has an aggressive temperament, could he be the son of some prince and noble family?No, he was followed by the imperial army... Damn it, could it be that the little commander in the army is leading this uncle Chong?Thinking of this, he suddenly stretched out his hand and slapped the boy in front of him with a big ear scraper!
The young man sneered, and grabbed his wrist with his backhand, the general let out a cry of pain, he didn't expect this kid to be so good at his kung fu, he was careless just now, he grabbed his wrist, now his wrist hurts like hell, he wanted to beg for mercy but couldn't Seeing that the other party was a boy in his twenties, and in front of so many subordinates, he really couldn't open his mouth.

"Who the hell are you? I am Huang Daya, commander of Si Tianwei's infantry, how dare you hit me?"

"Hmph, Huang Daya? I beat you until you have no teeth! You are all powerless scholars. It's all you need to scare them, but they are actually cruel. These people are the pillars of the Song Dynasty. Can you afford it?" Li Ce was annoyed that he had bullied the weak just now, and kept increasing his strength.

"Ah! It hurts, it hurts... I was also ordered to suppress it. We are both members of the Imperial Army. Brother, you should know that military orders cannot be violated." Uncle Huang wailed.

"How can our Wansheng army join forces with you! Remember, my name is Li Ce, and I am the prince of Yu in front of the palace." Seeing that he had suffered, Li Ce let go of his hand and kicked him out.

Huang Daya covered his wrist, looked at Li Ce with resentment and threatened, "Okay, Li Ce, the chief of the palace, I'll remember! Don't think that our Guard and Infantry Commander is easy to provoke, just wait for me!"

Seeing that they had someone to support them, all the scholars gained more confidence. These gentlemen were beaten hard just now, and now they didn't care about the etiquette of poetry and books, and started to greet the women in Huang Daya's family...

When Li Ce heard this, he whispered secretly, these scholars are not easy to save fuel, no wonder they were beaten just now.

What happened to the scholars just now can be regarded as an indirect deterrent to those troublemakers. If Li Ce hadn't stopped them in time, I'm afraid they would also be beaten by those tiger-like officers and soldiers now, so they have all learned to be good at this time , no one is willing to take the lead in provoking troubles anymore. It has to be said that violence cannot solve the problem, but it can temporarily suppress the problem.

"General, please take a step to speak." An old man stepped forward and said.This person was in his fifties, with sharp eyes and luxurious clothes, and he looked like a person with a background.

Although Li Ce was a little puzzled, he followed him to the side.

The old man took out a piece of silver from his sleeve and quietly handed it to Li Ce, saying in a low voice, "Little General, this is a little wish from this old man."

Li Ce looked at his treacherous eyes and knew that the old man didn't have any good ideas. He didn't go to pick up the money, but asked, "Old man, what does this mean?"

"Take it as an old man inviting the little general and the brothers to drink tea." The old man laughed.

"Old man, what should you say first?"

"Hehe... The little general is really quick to talk. The old man's surname is Zhou, and he is the steward of Prince Xiaoyuan's mansion. Today, these unruly people actually gathered together to make trouble. If the little general can help settle this matter, then my master will naturally not treat the little one badly." General." The old man said proudly.

Li Ce sneered after hearing this, Little Yuan Wang?In the Cuju game, you sent people to rob and kill Lao Tzu. I haven't settled with you yet. Today, you messed up again. If I don't give you some eye drops, wouldn't I be too sorry for you!
Seeing Li Ce sneer, the old man was a little displeased and said, "Could it be that the little general refuses to help?"

Li Ce just wanted to say: I will help you, uncle!But when he saw the silver in his hand, he suddenly changed his mind and changed his mind: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, but I have two thousand brothers here this time. Steward Zhou, you only give such a small amount of silver, don't you..." Seeing that the purse around Old Man Zhou's waist was bulging, he obviously still had a lot of stock in stock, so he just took out such a ingot and wanted to get rid of the young master?If I don't squeeze you dry, I won't be called Li Ce!
