Brocade legend

Chapter 66
Of course Tang Long didn't know Zhu Liu, but Tang Long could tell that this person must be a cruel and ruthless person, and the meaning of this threat was self-evident.

Tang Long looked at the injured or disabled Jinyi Guards again, and knew in his heart that something must have happened. Thinking of this, Tang Long no longer struggled.

Seeing Tang Long's understanding, Lu Bing said in a concentrated voice, "Master Tang, let's go to the big tent and have a good chat."

Bi Yun also noticed something strange, and was about to follow Lu Bing and others, but Meng Zhong, who was standing in front of him, quietly stopped him and motioned him not to go.

Bi Yun understood and stopped.

Lu Bing pulled Tang Long, followed by Zhu Liu and others, and came to the main tent of the Chinese army.

Lu Bing stopped in front of the door and motioned for Zhu Liu to hold Zhou Tong's body.Then he led Tang Long into the tent, and Zhu Liu took Zhou Tong's body from the back of a well-known Jin Yiwei, and followed him in his arms.

The other Jinyiwei, under Dong Hai's command, dragged their wounded bodies and quickly surrounded the commander's tent.

The stone took the lead, like a stone wall, blocking the tent door firmly.

Seeing this situation, other officers and soldiers in the barracks looked at each other in blank dismay.

Bi Yun was also standing at a distance under the protection of the Yumajian, waiting for the outcome of the incident.

In the big tent, Lu Bing let go of Tang Long and signaled Zhu Liu to put Zhou Tong on top of the handsome case.

Tang Long rubbed his sore wrist, looked at Lu Bing, and waited to see what Lu Bing had to say.

Looking at Zhou Tong's body, Lu Bing looked pale due to excessive blood loss, but his expression was serene. He didn't feel at ease until he knew that Lu Bing and others were out of danger.

But the broken flying fish suit on his body, the wounds all over his body, and the torso without an arm made him look sad and tragic.

Lu Bing stared at it for a long time, calmed down his thoughts, cleared his mind, and cleared his mind.

"Master Tang, do you know who I am?" Lu Bing asked, but did not turn around.

Tang Long pondered, and then replied: "But I heard it, Mr. Lu..."

Lu Bing turned around abruptly, looked at Tang Long with piercing eyes, and interrupted Tang Long: "Does Master Tang know my identity?"

"..." Tang Long dodged his eyes for a moment, then became firm again, looked directly at Lu Bing, and said frankly: "Lord Lu has many identities, from the minister of the dragon, the confidant of the emperor, to the thousand households of Jinyiwei..."

"That's right." Lu Bing continued, "But these identities are just one identity, and that is - the emperor's people!"

Lu Bing walked up to Tang Long quickly, and said, "Since Mr. Tang knows my identity, he should also know what I did in Beijing. I am not a civil servant or an eunuch. Daming's interests, I don't need to worry about anyone else's interests. Except for the emperor..." Lu Bing said and saluted from a distance: "And this world belongs to the emperor, so as long as Mr. Tang is loyal to Daming and the emperor, you don't have to treat me I have some scruples, but... if Mr. Tang is not loyal to the emperor, then he will not complain if he died under the knife of this imperial envoy, Mr. Tang, do you think what the officer said is justified?"

Tang Long heard Lu Bingzhi's words, although he was surprised that Lu Bing was so straightforward, he didn't dare to hesitate a bit: "I have read the books of sages and sages, how dare I be disloyal to the king! Tang's actions are all based on the emperor and the country!"

"Good!" Lu Bing praised loudly, first bowed to Tang Long, then turned around and bowed to Zhou Tong's corpse.

"Master Tang, the person lying on the table is a general banner of our Jinyiwei. For us, he led a hundred Jinyiwei to prevent thousands of Mongolian cavalry from chasing and killing us at a place less than [-] miles away from the barracks. Death. Dare I ask Master Tang, why did the Mongolian cavalry set up an ambush to intercept and kill the emperor's imperial envoys at the location of my Xuanfu camp?" Lu Bing asked Tang Long loudly.

Tang Long was sweating profusely when he heard it. As the head of the trilateral system, such a thing happened outside the camp of the Xuanfu where he was sitting. No matter how he explained it, he couldn't escape being held accountable.

"Right now, there are still two hundred Ming royal guards lying not far from the Xuanfu camp, and they will never be able to go home to see their wives, children and parents! Master Tang, won't you give me an explanation?" Lu Bing continued to press, aggressively.

"This..." Tang Long really couldn't tell. He had been an official for many years, discussed politics, suppressed bandits, and was proud of being both civil and military. The emperor had placed high hopes on him and sent him here to sit in the northern border. He never thought that he would be trapped here , order not to go out.

Looking at Tang Long's expression, Lu Bing already understood something in his heart, and continued, "I'm not afraid that Mr. Tang will know that the officer came here this time, and he didn't bring a single penny with him. The military supplies that Mr. Tang wants must be made in northern Xinjiang." .”

When Tang Long heard this, he became even more desperate. The emperor promised to give money and food, and he would pay on the spot. He only heard the first sentence, but he didn't have any hope for the second sentence. He didn't expect that the imperial envoy came here empty-handed!

Lu Bing didn't wait for Tang Long to speak and continued: "Just in this northern border, there are millions or even tens of millions of money and food. I wonder if Mr. Tang knows?"

Tang Long's face was earthy. .He vaguely knew what Lu Bing was planning.

Tang Long also had his own contacts. Although there was no clear news, there was always a hint of wind in his ears, and Tang Long couldn't avoid even this hint of wind.

In the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, there is a big money bag. This big money bag is tied to the belts of half of the officials of the Ming Dynasty, and it is even more entangled with various forces.

Although Tang Long didn't want to participate, he didn't dare to touch or inquire about it. Hearing that Lu Bing wanted to tell the truth, his heart trembled uncontrollably and he was sweating profusely.

Lu Bing continued as if he didn't see Tang Long's performance: "I came here to help the emperor get back his share, cut off those dishonest claws, break off greedy teeth, and let the world know that the royal It’s not so easy to take advantage of the cheap price!”

"The emperor knows!" Tang Long couldn't support himself, wailed in his heart and fell limp on the ground, Lu Bing signaled Zhu Liu to help Tang Long up, and sat on a chair beside him.

Lu Bing waited quietly for Tang Long to calm down a little, and continued: "More than 200 Jinyiwei died outside the gate of the lord's camp, and the head of the lord is not far from the ground. When I was intercepted and killed, it must have been leaked." News. The first strike is the strongest, and the second is to suffer disaster. Therefore, the lower officials really don't have time to entangle with Mr. Tang. As the saying goes: "When a person is about to die, his words are good. "I just want to ask Mr. Tang, are you involved in it? If so, I hope Mr. Tang will confess, and I will cut off Mr. Tang's head on the spot. This matter will be over, and Mr. Tang will not have to travel long distances to escort back to the capital and be cast aside by others. If you suffer from flesh and blood again, if this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Tang, then I will ask Mr. Tang to cooperate to complete the task assigned by the emperor."

Tang Long calmed down a little, forced himself to calm down, but still took a chance and said: "The lower official really doesn't know about the fact that your lord was intercepted..."

Before Tang Long finished speaking, a ray of silver light struck down
