Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

Chapter 911 Old Boss Zhang Taixin

Seeing the person coming, Chu Mo's eyes flashed with light.

The person who came was none other than his old boss, Zhang Taixin, the lieutenant general of Mingdemen.

Seeing Zhang Taixin's arrival, Chengmen Lang's face quickly flashed with a strange look, and then he looked at Chu Mo and his party with some reluctance.

He knew that today's obstruction would probably only end here.

Sure enough, but when Zhang Taixin approached on a shiny black horse without a trace of color, the first thing he said was to rebuke the gatekeeper:

"What's going on? I just asked you to temporarily guard it for a few days, but why did you make this place so messy?"

Chengmen Lang's old face was covered with a chrysanthemum. He looked at Zhang Taixin and wanted to argue, but he also knew that even with his bright tongue, he couldn't make sense when facing his immediate boss.

However, before he could open his mouth to defend himself, Zhang Taixin changed his aggressive attitude in front of him, jumped off the horse with a plop, and then came to the guard captain of the Prince's Mansion with a flattering look on his face, and bowed respectfully. road:

"Sir, why are you here? Is there any order from His Highness the Crown Prince? If there is anything I need to run errands for, just give me the order and the general will definitely help."

Although Li Chengqian is not favored by the ministers of the court, if a low-level general like Zhang Taixin can climb the big tree of the Prince's Mansion, he will undoubtedly soar into the sky.

Therefore, when he heard a report from his subordinates that people from the Prince's Mansion wanted to leave the city and had a conflict with the temporary city gatekeeper, he hurriedly brought people over to check the situation.

When the guard captain heard Zhang Taixin's words, the corners of his eyes twitched, and he pointed at Chu Mo beside him and said:

"I was ordered by His Highness to escort the distinguished guest Marco Polo out of the city, but I was blocked by your men and was delayed."

Hearing that the barbarian in front of him turned out to be a distinguished guest of His Royal Highness, Zhang Taixin's originally contemptuous eyes immediately converged, and then he smiled flatteringly:

"It turns out that I am an honored guest of His Royal Highness. I am blind, so please forgive me."

After saying that, he bowed respectfully to Chu Mo.

Chu Mo curled his lips. He knew very well what his old boss looked like.

However, now is not the time for me to be in the limelight. In the public eye, I have to keep my presence low, lest Li Shimin investigates and discovers something fishy.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly saluted Zhang Taixin and said:

"My lord, you have misunderstood. In fact, the person who left the city this time is the head of the Cui family. I am just an ordinary businessman."

After saying that, he pointed to Cui Yingying's car frame beside him.

Zhang Taixin already knew about Cui Yingying's arrival.

However, according to the identity of the other party, he did not take the initiative to show up, so naturally he rushed forward eagerly and knelt down to lick her.

Now that I heard Chu Mo talk about it, I was almost too excited to kowtow to him on the spot.

You must know that the head of the Cui family is now one of the top figures in Chang'an City, except His Majesty the Emperor. If a small official like himself wants to come to curry favor with him, he will not even be able to get in.

Now that he had such a good opportunity to show his face in front of the other party, and someone even specially moved a ladder for him, how could he not be excited?

"The last general, Mingdemen Zhang Taixin, didn't know that the Cui family leader was coming. Please forgive me."

Cui Yingying, who was in the carriage, naturally paid attention to the conversations of several people.

Now when you see someone taking the initiative to salute, it's hard to ignore them.

After all, my group had to rely on each other to get out of the city.

"General Zhang, there is no need to be polite. I just have an urgent matter that needs to be dealt with. I want to go out of the city, but I didn't expect that your Mingde Gate is so difficult to open. It's really embarrassing for me."

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Cui Yingying's words, cold sweat immediately broke out on Zhang Taixin's forehead.

After glaring at the city gate man angrily, Zhang Taixin hurriedly looked at Chu Mo and the guard captain for help.

"Master Cui, what happened today was a misunderstanding. Originally, the Mingde Gate was guarded by Cheng Chumo, the young master of Duke Lu's mansion. However, the young master Cheng was accidentally injured a few days ago, so he had to find a temporary replacement."

Speaking of this, Zhang Taixin was stunned for a moment.

I heard that Cheng Chumo was attacked by an extremely arrogant barbarian and was seriously injured and bedridden.

Now everyone in the Cheng family is looking for the barbarian throughout the city.

And the barbarian in front of me is almost the same as what those people described, isn't it? ? ?

Thinking of this, Zhang Taixin was stunned.

However, when he saw the prince's palace guard captain on the left and the driver of the Cui family on the right, he immediately put away his little thoughts.

Now is not the time to think about this. If you do, you have to wait until they leave before making a decision.

At the same time, Cui Yingying’s dissatisfied words also came over:

"That being the case, I wonder if we can leave the city now?"

But before Zhang Taixin could reply, Chu Mo on the side also took out Li Chengqian's waist card and said:

"We have His Highness the Crown Prince's belt as proof. We asked for His Highness the Crown Prince's opinion before leaving the city and were allowed to leave."

"I never expected that you, a small Mingde sect, would not even listen to His Highness the Crown Prince's order without saying anything in the face of the Cui family's head. I really don't know where you got the courage."

Although I have known for a long time that this matter is related to the Prince's Mansion and the Cui family.

But after seeing Chu Mo take out the prince's belt, Zhang Taixin's heart still trembled suddenly:

"Sir, this matter really has nothing to do with me. You must believe me."

After saying that, I felt that I was not sincere enough, so I immediately added:

"Master Cui, adults, don't worry. After today, I will definitely give you a satisfactory doctor, and I will never let you down."

After saying that, he looked at Cheng Menlang who was looking at the side with a dead look in his eyes.

Facing Zhang Taixin's eyes that almost wanted to eat him alive, Chengmen Lang curled his lips disdainfully:

"General Zhang, there is an order from the Holy One. Without it, no one can leave the city. Is that possible? Do you want to resist the order?"

Zhang Taixin, who had been holding back his anger for a long time, once again heard the other party's almost rogue words, and immediately became angry. He directly pulled out the saber from his waist, pointed at Chengmen Lang and shouted:

"You are just a temporary worker, why are you talking to me here? Without an imperial edict, is it possible that I can't cure you today?"

After saying that, he made a move to step forward and chop the opponent to death with one knife.

However, his movements were a little stiff, and everyone could tell that this guy was just showing off.

Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Taixin moved his steps, a group of personal guards behind him rushed forward, pulling his arms, hugging his waist, grabbing the knife, with a loyal and blocking posture, and directly blocked him. Zhang Taixin was trapped in place and could not move.
