Chapter 35 Red Dragon Guard
Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen people arrived.
They have short, straight and narrow knives on their waists, the scabbards are engraved with unique patterns, and there is a small, fiery red "Chi" character on the handle.
The footsteps were light and quick, and the black clothes were like dark clouds, silent and majestic, and the feeling of oppression dissipated instantly.
Even the sound of the wind around seemed to stop.
Everyone's breathing also stopped, their hearts and even their whole bodies were tense, they lowered their eyes slightly, and tried their best to reduce their presence.
Red Dragon Guard!
The special guards directly under the emperor, in addition to protecting the emperor, also have the power to supervise all civil and military officials in the court. There is no one they dare not investigate and no case they dare not investigate.
Important cases can be directly submitted to the emperor's dragon desk.
As for minor cases and minor officials, in the words of Fu Qingyin, the commander of the Red Dragon Guard, "Kill them if you want."
But as to who can be considered a "big official" in Fu Qingyin's eyes, that is up to him to decide.
When everyone thought of that iron-blooded devil, they felt a chill on the back of their necks.
Even the prince's gaze deepened, and the desire in his eyes quietly faded away.
A dozen Red Dragon Guards spread out to the left and right, and everyone held their breath again.
A man walked out from the middle, also wearing a black robe, with gold edges on the collar, cuffs and hem, like a faint golden glow under dark clouds.
He wore a gauze hat, had bronze skin, thick black eyebrows, and sharp eyes like an eagle's and lightning.
The commander-in-chief, Hao Mengye.
Fortunately, it wasn’t Fu Qingyin.
However, this person is Fu Qingyin's confidant and capable subordinate, and is not someone he is likely to be trifled with.
When the Red Dragon Guards come to your door, nothing good ever happens, especially when it comes from the commander-in-chief himself.
Everyone secretly regretted that they should not have come to the Su family today. Who knew why the Su family would provoke the Red Dragon Guard?
As for the Su family, they were also confused. The old lady was furious just now and asked Su Dingqin to continue beating Yu Shengsheng and wanted to pull out Jin Baobao's tongue.
My face is so stiff now, and when I try to force a smile, I don’t know which wrinkle to start with.
Hao Mengye walked closer and stood with his hands behind his back: "Why? Is this the rule of the Su family? You don't even say hello when you see me?"
Su Yanshu was the first to come back to his senses. He stepped forward, smiled and bowed: "Commander Hao, I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person. Today, I'm inviting some friends to my mansion to enjoy tea and appreciate the lotus..."
Hao Mengye's eyes were indifferent, like a thin and sharp blade, passing across his face.
"Why are you the head of the Su family now?"
Su Yanshu thought he had performed well, was neither humble nor arrogant, and had the character of a scholar, and did not lose face in front of the Red Dragon Guards.
Unexpectedly, before he could even finish his words, Hao Mengye tore off his face. With just one sentence, he was trampled on so hard that he had no face left.
Hao Mengye stretched out two fingers and flicked them twice - to make him dodge.
Su Yanshu's face flushed: "Chief Hao, this is the Su family, behind me..."
It’s His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Hao Mengye snorted and laughed: "Of course I know this is the Su family. How can a Red Dragon Guard not know where they are coming from?"
"As for you, Su Yanshu, you hold no official position and have not done anything. If your father were here, he might not dare to speak like you."
Hao Mengye glanced at Yu Shengsheng lying on the ground, then calmly looked away. He tilted his head again, as if he had just discovered the prince.
Hao Mengye walked a few steps to the prince and bowed: "Greetings to His Royal Highness, I didn't know Your Highness was here. I am rude, please forgive me."
The prince's eyes were deep, and the corners of his mouth curled up: "Commander Hao, there is no need to be so polite."
The prince dared to fight secretly with the Lu family, and also dared to face Kong Dezhao who was about to come to Beijing, but he could not offend the Red Dragon Guard.
The reason is simple. Commander Fu Qingyin is deeply trusted by the emperor. He is like a sharp sword. He ignores everyone except the emperor and will be hurt if he touches anyone.
What's more, Fu Qingyin is the best at finding information. Every case he handles has solid evidence. No one knows how he found so much evidence.
The prince knew exactly what he had done and how he came to be the prince.
Who knows if Fu Qingyin is angered, will he find out everything?
"Commander Hao personally led the team to the Su family today for..."
Hao Mengye's voice was slightly amused, and he said calmly: "The prince of Nanshun was on his way to Beijing when he passed by Shunchang Prefecture and was attacked and injured in the leg. This matter is of great importance, and I have to come and investigate it myself."
These words were like a huge rock falling into water, and everyone was shocked.
But their expressions were different.
Jin Baobao was delighted, broke free from the people who were holding her, and ran to Yu Shengsheng.
"Miss, let me help you up."
Yu Shengsheng endured the pain all over his body and struggled to get up with the help of her.
Jin Baobao whispered in her ear: "Miss, did you hear that? Prince Nanshun can't come for the time being."
Yu Shengsheng felt like crying, so she nodded slowly and held Jin Baobao's hand tightly.
She struggled and fought hard, trying to refuse to be arranged and to reject this marriage.
Now, the goal has finally been achieved.
The prince was shocked and angry: "The prince of Nanshun was attacked? Who is so bold?"
Hao Mengye turned to look at Su Dingqin: "I have to ask General Su about this matter."
Su Dingqin was still holding the bloody whip and was stunned when he heard this: "Me?"
The old lady said anxiously: "Commander Hao, this matter has nothing to do with Ding Qin!"
"Whether it is related or not is not up to the old lady to decide," Hao Mengye glanced at the Buddhist beads hanging on her hand, "The old lady believes in Buddhism. We in the Red Dragon Guards' prison see blood every day."
"You'd better step aside to avoid collision."
The old lady choked, and Su Zhiyi asked, "May I ask why you say it's related to my eldest brother? My eldest brother is in the capital and has never left the capital. How did he get to Shunchang?"
Hao Mengye stroked the hilt of the sword at his waist with his fingers, and his tone was tinged with coldness: "Princess Rongyang, are you asking me a question?"
Su Zhiyi bit her lip, her eyes aggrieved and stubborn: "I just want justice."
"Fair," Hao Mengye laughed, "There is a famous bandit in Shunchang Prefecture named Zou Zhiliang. If I remember correctly, General Su should have fought with him."
Su Dingqin said anxiously: "Yes, when I returned to Beijing, I passed by his stronghold and thought about destroying him and getting rid of the harm to the people, but I didn't have enough troops at the time and I was in a hurry to return to Beijing, so I put it on hold for the time being."
Hao Mengye chuckled and looked at Shen Zhiyuan and Ru Jian on the water corridor.
"Zou Zhiliang learned that Master Kong was going to Beijing, so he invited him to join the camp. Master Kong said that he was going to Beijing to make friends with the Su family, so he refused to join the camp. But within two days, he was attacked and injured."
Su Dingqin was confused: "In that case, Zou Zhiliang is more suspicious. What does it have to do with me?"
"What does it have to do with you? You heard that Zou Zhiliang wanted to make friends with the prince, and you thought that the prince would agree to it and join forces with him to harm you, so you took action and hurt the prince."
Su Dingqin was stunned: "This... How did you get this from? I have never left Beijing."
"So what? If I don't leave Beijing, can't I instruct others to do it?"
Su Dingqin was so angry that he almost died. What kind of bandit logic was this?
Hao Mengye looked at Su Zhiyi with disdain: "Princess Rongyang, don't you think so?"
