Li Xiao's eyes immediately became wet, and he didn't care about the smelly urine bucket. He stepped forward and pulled the iron chain like a madman, but how could he break the iron chain with his strength.

"Look for the key, look for the key on the dead man at the door." He was too close to Li Hu, and Li Xiao did not dare to shoot.

"Brother...!" Li Hu, who was beaten to pieces without even shedding a tear, burst into tears when he heard Li Xiao's voice.

"Don't be afraid, big brother is here! Big brother is here, hurry up, why haven't you found it yet?" Li Xiao pulled the iron chain twice, but almost strangled Li Hu to death.

"Master, there is a living person here."

"pull over!"

A platoon leader picked up Yan Ye, who had wet his pants, and dragged him over like a dog.

"Open! If you can't open it, I'll kill you!" Li Xiao pointed the revolver at Yan Ye's head.

"No! Xiao...! There is a key here!" Although he didn't know what Li Xiao was holding in his hand, he saw that Li Xiao shot through the lock with one shot. Master Yan knew that this thing was not a good thing.

When this thing was pointed at his head, Master Yan was so frightened that his calves twitched.

Shivering, he opened the big shackles around Li Hu's neck and opened the iron chain locking Li Hu's neck.

"Fuck you bastard!" Li Hu, who had just broken free from the restraints, jumped up violently. He kicked Master Yan down to the ground. He grabbed the iron chain that had just locked him up in his hand and thoughtlessly.

smoke.

Gunshots began to be heard outside, and Li Xiao knew that this was the arrival of people from the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion. However, their few troops were far inferior to the Tatar soldiers. Li Xiao was not worried, Ao Canghai would not be able to withstand it.

"Did you just hit my brother?" Li Xiao used his foot to pull Yan Ye's head.

"Sir, please forgive me. I realize my mistake. I was also sent by Mr. Huang, the imperial censor. He gave me a hundred taels of silver and asked me to break your brother's legs. Xiaonian didn't dare to do this. It's just that

Locking him next to the urine bucket is also to save his life! Please, sir, spare my life! Spare my life...!" As expected of a veteran who has been around in the capital for many years, not only did he win with these two words,

He was very clean and even expressed his merit to Li Xiao.

"Then it's time for me to thank you?" Li Xiao said, squeezing Master Yan's face hard.

"Sir! Please spare the little one. There is an eighty-year-old woman above me and a three-year-old girl below...!"

"You all were trained in the same fucking place, even the words are the same. Since you are being instigated by others, I won't make it difficult for you. The last person who beat my brother, I beat him off one of his hands. This time, I

I won’t embarrass you either.

Huzi, picked on his tendons and hamstrings." Li Xiao said, throwing a dagger to Li Hu.

"Don't worry, my elder brother won't kill you if he doesn't kill you. You kid is lucky, he helped me hold it down!" Li Hu walked towards Master Yan fiercely, and in the midst of Master Yan's screams like killing a pig, Li Hu held his hand.

The dagger was inserted into his heel, followed by a scream. The hamstrings of the heel were cut off completely, first the left foot and then the right foot. Then two hands, and at first Yan Ye could still scream a few times,

Later, there was no sound of screaming at all, and he was lying softly on the ground, and he didn't know whether he was dead or not.

At this time, the fire was already going on outside, and gunshots were heard one after another.

The people in the Fifth Army Governor's Office obviously didn't understand the situation and thought that by sending a few hundred soldiers, they could kill these troublemaking soldiers in one fell swoop. However, they didn't expect that as soon as they reached the corner of the street, more than a dozen people were knocked down. The fire cannons on the opposite side were fired again.

Yes, it's extremely powerful. The Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army also has fire blunderbuss, but compared with other people's fire blunderbuss, theirs is simply incomparable.

I fired several shots from a distance, but didn't even touch anyone's hair.

"Brother Xiao, how do you fix it?"

"We can't wait here. Let's go back to the inn and go there to find our ammunition. With the ammunition, we will be rich even if we enter the palace."

"Do you really want to kill the emperor?"

"Let's talk about it then!"

Now Li Xiao regrets his impulse. Li Xiao has not yet decided what to do next.

"It's so late, what's going on! Hey! The Governor is here too!" Tian Ji complained and walked into Cui Chengxiu's study, and suddenly saw Wei Zhongxian here. Not only Wei Zhongxian was there, but Wei Liangqing, Ni Wenhuan, and Wu Chunfu were all there. Wei Zhongxian's

At the other end, Gu Bingqian, a bachelor of Dongge University, sat.

These are all eunuchs among eunuchs, and backbones among backbones. Tian Ji felt that something big must have happened, otherwise people would never be able to come together like this.

"No need! Sit down!" Wei Zhongxian waved his hand and motioned for Tian Ji to sit down.

"Master Cui, you just said that this boy broke into Shuntian Mansion with soldiers just to save his brother? Does he know that this is a serious crime of rebellion? What do you mean by asking the governor to protect him? Besides, this Shuntian Mansion

Tianfu Yin is a student of Gao Panlong and Zhao Nanxing. Can the governor suppress this matter if he wants?" Gu Bingqian asked Cui Chengxiu while drinking tea.

"Master Gu, you can't say this." Although he was also a member of the eunuch party, Cui Chengxiu despised Gu Bingqian the most. Because this guy was not recruited by Wei Zhongxian on his own initiative, but he took the initiative to sneak into the eunuch party.

It stands to reason that since everyone comes together for the same purpose (to get promoted! To make a fortune!), there is absolutely no issue of racial discrimination. However, the method used by Grand Bachelor Gu to sneak in is too dirty, so dirty that even his own people look down on him.

This guy is over seventy years old. In order to get promoted, he ignored the fact that he was eighteen years older than Eunuch Wei. He actually brought his son to Wei Zhongxian's house and said that he was old. It was not good to ask Eunuch Wei to be his father, so let him

His son worshiped Eunuch Wei as his grandfather.

So shameless! It’s really not easy to make people look down on you.

Seeing that Gu Bingqian was silent, Cui Chengxiu said: "Being able to do such a thing for his brother shows that he is a kind person. These days, kind people are really rare." When Cui Chengxiu said this, he looked at Gu Bingqian specifically.

One glance.

"Cough!" Gu Bingqian coughed and suppressed his anger.

Cui Chengxiu chuckled lightly and then said: "For a man of friendship, the Governor helped him at this time. A person like him can be remembered for a lifetime! If the Governor encounters danger in the future, he will definitely help him.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this boy can fight. Master Tian and Master Wu. You are both serving in the Ministry of War. If Wang Zaijin falls, which of you will go to Liaodong to compete with Sun Chengzong for the governorship of Jiliao?

location?"

"Uh...! Cough!" Tian Ji and Wu Chunfu looked at each other, coughed lightly to cover up their embarrassment and remained silent.

They all know what a hellish place Liaodong is, and they all know it in the Ministry of War. The position of Commander Ji Liao is like sitting on the crater of a volcano. If one day the Tatars invade again and are defeated again, they will be used as a scapegoat by the court.

Being killed is also the meaning of the question. Anyway, this is what we did before!

To be honest, none of them are willing to take over the position of Governor Jiliao. Especially Tian Ji, who has the most suitable qualifications!

Tian Ji didn't speak, and others naturally didn't speak either. Everyone didn't speak. Cui Chengxiu continued: "With him in Liaodong, we can stabilize Liaodong. That Mao Wenlong is ready-made, with him here. Even if Sun Chengzong really squeezes out

With the king in Jin, we can also control the situation in Liaodong through him.

Besides, what is your Majesty most worried about now? The corrupt situation in Liaodong.

If the Governor can help His Majesty resolve this crisis, will the Governor win your Majesty's trust more? If we don't take action, those people from Donglin will take the lead and harm the boy surnamed Li. How can we survive in Liaodong?

Do you have a voice to speak?

Governor of Jiliao! Governor of Jiliao! Although they are in charge of Jiliao, their troops are also close to the capital! Everyone, who has the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jiliao? The weight of this, you should

You can weigh it out."

"Master Cui's words make sense. The position of Governor Ji Liao is very important. And preserving this person will be of great benefit to our Ming Dynasty. I support Master Cui's suggestion!" Wei Guangwei, the Minister of Civil Affairs, suddenly spoke.

Wei Guangwei is different from Gu Bingqian. He is a man with real talent and learning. In terms of academic qualifications and qualifications, everyone here is relatively convinced. Among the eunuchs, he is second only to Wei Zhongxian in terms of speaking.

Seeing Wei Guangwei speaking, Wu Chunfu, Tian Ji, Li Kuilong, and Tian Ergen all expressed their agreement.

"Since everyone agrees, I won't say anything. But there is one thing I won't hold back on. The Governor helped the boy named Li Xiao this time. Can that boy really be used by the Governor? Who will come?

Guarantee this? Master Cui?" Gu Bingqian looked at Cui Chengxiu and said in a strange tone.

"Ha! Ha! Ha! Since the bachelor said so, then Cui will be the guarantee. If the governor protects this boy, but this boy cannot be used by the governor, I, Cui Chengxiu, will bear all the blame."

"Cough!" Wei Zhongxian coughed, and everyone stopped talking.

"You all have read books, and are more knowledgeable than our family who have not read books. I called you here today to discuss whether you should help that kid. Now that the results are out, since everyone thinks

It would be beneficial to help that boy. Then our family will extend this hand!

After all, we are all here to survive. Once our power falls, you all should know what will happen to everyone. It’s nothing more than self-protection.

Our family will enter the palace immediately. The only one who can maintain this situation now is Your Majesty.

Tian Ergen, Xu Xianchun! You take the royal guards to protect that boy. No one is allowed to touch him until the imperial edict arrives."

"No! Uh...! Governor, if there is any obstacle...!" Tian Ergen asked with some embarrassment.

"Kill to kill!"

"promise!"

"Cui Chengxiu, take that Mao Wenlong and follow our family into the palace."

"promise!"
Chapter completed!
