Beiping, King Yan's Mansion
In the main courtyard of King Yan's residence, Zhu Di practiced a set of vigorous fist techniques. He sat down on a chair with sweat all over his forehead.
"I haven't fought in a long time. I've really regressed.”He took a sip of tea and let out a long breath.
A black-robed monk sat beside him, his eyes closed as he chanted softly.
Yao Guangxiao, the number one strategist of the King Yan Residence!
"Your Highness, someone requests an audience." Someone came to report.
"Who is it?" Zhu Di was a little impatient.”
"He claimed to be…Liao Liu, a very strange name. It sounds like a fake name. He came with a knife!”
"Liao Liu?" Zhu Di perked up.”
"This lowly one definitely didn't hear wrongly. That person did say that his name is Liao Liu.”
"Liao Liu…let him in. There's no need for him to remove his saber!”
"Yes!"
When Yao Guangxiao heard this, he opened his triangular eyes and looked at Zhu Di."Wangye, is it Liao Wangye's Wang Wei?”
"Yes."
Zhu Di nodded and smiled.""I haven't seen this brother of mine since I became a vassal. Speaking of which, this king really misses him.”
After a while, Liao Liu, who was wearing a black robe and a saber, walked in. He cupped his fists at Zhu Di with a cold expression as a greeting.
"Liao Liu greets King Yan."
Zhu Di nodded slightly.”
"My wangye has a letter that he ordered me to personally deliver to you.”Liao Liu took out a letter from his sleeve and placed it on the ground. Then, he took five steps back to put some distance between them.
Wang Wei could kill within five steps.
Liao Liu pushed five steps away to show his respect to the King of Yan.
Yao Guangxiao stepped forward, picked up the letter on the ground, and handed it to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di took the letter, tore open the envelope, and took out the letter inside. He raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Interesting. My Thirteenth Brother has really grown up.”
There was only a line of small words on the letter: Brother Zhu Zhi, please help me to hang the commander of the left guard of Yongqing, Geng, on the charges and temporarily detain him!
"Tell your Liao Wangye that this prince will help you with this!”
……
Yongqing Left Guard
"Geng Geng, come out quickly. The lord of Beiping's Military Department is here for an inspection!”
"Coming, coming!"
Geng Geng changed into his armor and walked out of the room. He quickly followed Niu Hongwen, the commander of the Yongqing Left Guards.
"Milord, why did the Beiping Military Governor suddenly come to patrol?”He asked in confusion.
"Who knows? This is what the King of Yan wants us to do. We just have to do our job well.”Niu Hongwen said.
"Who's on patrol this time?" Geng Geng asked again.”
"Beiping's Commanding Officer Tongzhi, Qi Yuanzhong.”
" From Rank-2?!" Geng Geng was shocked.
This was their immediate superior!
Such a person would actually personally go down to the Wei office to patrol?
"It's good that you know the severity. This Lord Qi is coming at us menacingly, and it doesn't seem like he can handle it.”"But he shouldn't make things too difficult for us. You don't have to worry too much." Niu Hongwen said.”
Geng Geng's father was the commander of the Liaodong Military Department, Geng Bingwen, a second-grade official. In terms of rank, he was even higher than this Lord Qi.
However, the two belonged to different places. Although Geng Bingwen's rank was high, he could not reach Beiping. However, at that level of high ranking officials, they all had a tacit understanding and would not make things difficult for each other. Geng Geng was the future successor of Geng Bingwen, so it was likely that Lord Qi would not make things too difficult for him.
"Ta"
Amidst the hurried footsteps, a middle-aged man in heavy armor walked over from the end of the corridor. He raised his hand and said,"Search!"
With this order, dozens of soldiers in armor and swords scattered and entered the barracks to search roughly. The Yongqing Left Guards in the barracks had long known that the Beiping Commander-in-Chief was coming to patrol, so they did not dare to move and could only let these soldiers rummage through the chests and cabinets.
"Sir, you are?" The commander of the Yongqing Left Guards, Niu Hongwen, went forward to ask vigilantly.
"I am Qi Yuanzhong, the commander of Beiping's capital.”The middle-aged man took off the waist tag from his waist and threw it to Niu Hongwen as he said coldly.
Niu Hongwen took the token and returned it to the middle-aged man respectfully after confirming that it was correct."I am Niu Hongwen, commander of the Yongqing Left Guards. Greetings, Lord Qi.”
"I am Geng Geng, the commander of the Left Guards of Yongqing. Greetings, Lord Qi."”
"Yes." Qi Yuanzhong nodded and said nothing.
"Lord Qi, aren't you patrolling?”Niu Hongwen pointed at the soldiers who were rummaging through the barracks, feeling puzzled.
"This is a patrol!"
"The Commandant has received a report that a cult follower has infiltrated the Yongqing Left Guards!" Qi Yuanzhong said coldly.”
Niu Hongwen gasped and said,""Sir, this is not a joke. How can there be evil cult believers in our Wei Institution!”
"What a joke. Do you think I'm joking with you again?”
" Hmph!" Qi Yuanzhong snorted and said," Let me tell you, it's not up to you to decide whether there are cult followers or not!" However, this official will not malign any good person. As long as you are clean, this official will return your innocence!”
Niu Hongwen had no choice but to nod.”
