Gao Chong was very unhappy when he saw this. He asked with a deep face: "Mu Yao, what's wrong? He's in a panic!"

Feng Muyao saw that it was Gao Chong, and breathed a sigh of relief. He then said, "Sir, the big thing is wrong, the big thing is wrong. Ling Zhen was captured by them."

Gao Chong was stunned for a moment and said, "Ling Zhen? Why? Who caught him?"

"I was captured by the imperial guards. It is said that Ling Zhen installed artillery at Ximen today, and then tested it. Li Bangyan and Li Gong said that he was provoking a dispute and intentionally undermining the peace talks, so he tied him up and wanted to behead him for public display. Lord Zhang Zeduan has already gone to find Li Gang and Li Gong."

Gao Chong was so angry that he almost cursed. He told Feng Muyao not to run around and wait at home. He flew on his horse and headed straight for Wanshengmen.

When he arrived here, he found Ling Zhen was tied to a flagpole, and an executioner holding a big knife in his hand and was about to execute his execution. Liu Wei was arguing with the prodigal prime minister Li Bangyan next to him, and the Liu Ziyi brothers were also anxious.

Gao Chong came to them quickly and jumped off the war horse with a slight noise. When Liu Ziyi saw Gao Chong coming, he knew that it was not good. If his temper really started to develop, he would really ignore anything.

So he ran two steps and rushed forward and said, "Shaojun, calm down! My father is negotiating with Li Bangyan and believes that he will forgive Ling Zhen."

"Forgive?" Gao Chong raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly: "Why is Ling Zhen guilty? How can he forgive me?" He said that, and pushed Liu Ziyi away and walked up with great strides.

"Mr. Li, why do you want to tie Ling Zhen up? He is the master craftsman of my Gunpowder Department. Do you have to discuss with me if you want to take someone?"

Li Bangyan snorted coldly and looked at Gao Chong and said, "Master Gao, I'm still about to ask you? What's going on with your subordinates? Why do you have to fire a private gun? This is a sensitive period. What will you do if it causes dissatisfaction from the Jin people?"

"Our soldiers in Kaifeng are waiting for the battle, for fear that the Jin people will not come. If the Jin people come, they will definitely not come back."

Li Bangyan said furiously: "Du! So bold! Why did Gao Chong dare to make such a ruthless statement? The emperor ordered that we are in a negotiation with the Jin people, so we are friendly countries. You are openly resisting the order and opening your eyes for the battle! You are a military force and deserve to die for the crime!"

"Hmph! Mr. Li, if we hadn't resisted desperately on the city wall and defeated the enemy's attacks again and again, you would have died countless times now! Ling Zhen is a hero of the country. He not only did this without any mistake, but also made contributions! Hurry up and release people!"

Li Bangyan was furious and said, "Gao Chong, you are a reckless man, how can you know the beauty of the official family? Our successful peace talks with the Jin people will save countless people from being displaced and countless people will be spared from the loss."

"I would rather not have peace for you who are waving your tails and begging for mercy. The dignity and peace of the Song Dynasty depend on our swords and the struggle of the soldiers! Gao Baobao, let Ling Zhen down, I will see who dares to hurt him."

"Come on Gao Chong!" Even Liu Wei was anxious. This time, he was so bold that he really had no room for maneuver after such a fuss. He had completely broken up with the court, and Gao Chong would definitely be beheaded.

Gao Chong clasped his fists and said, "Mr. Liu, thank you for your righteousness, but letting one of my brothers suffer such grievances inexplicably is not Gao Chong's will. Gao Baobao, let others go. If anyone has any objection, let them go to Moutuogang to find me."

Gao Baobao rushed up immediately after Gao Chong's orders. The executioner wanted to stop him, but he punched him to the ground, then pulled the rope off and rescued Ling Zhen.

Li Bangyan's lips turned blue with anger. He kept shouting: "Rebellion! Rebellion! Liu Wei, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and arrest Gao Chong for me."

Liu Wei quickly said, "Gong Li, what Gao Chong did makes sense, and what you did today is indeed hurting people. There are many resentment in the army. If there is a real mutiny, it will be difficult to end."

Li Bangyan was stunned. He took a peek and found that the soldiers were glaring at each other. He couldn't help but take a breath and said, "Okay! OK! There is really no law in the king! I want to report this to the official family and ask him to deal with it."

Gao Chong was unmoved at all, and left with big strides, flew onto a war horse, and then ran away with Gao Baobao with Ling Zhen.

"Leave people under the knife!" With a loud shout, Zhang Zeduan and Li Gang rushed over. As soon as they arrived here, they found that there was no one on the flagpole, and Li Bangyan and others also had their faces ashen.

"It's over, could I be one step late?" Zhang Zeduan's heart was overwhelmed. He knew that Gao Chong valued Ling Zhen very much. If something happened to him, he couldn't explain to Gao Chong!

Li Gang was also stunned. He shouted loudly to Li Bangyan and said, "Mr. Li? What's going on? I heard that you arrested a master of the Gunpowder Department for no reason? But is it okay?"

Li Bangyan was angry and said furiously: "I am the prime minister of the court. Can't I deal with a craftsman? This Ling Zhen was originally related to thieves and has always been determined to destroy me.

Now is the critical time for our peace talks with the Jin Kingdom. He fired firecrackers privately, which caused a huge reaction from the Jin people. Gao Chong even robbed the court and snatched the people away. I want to go to the official family to sue you!" Li Bangyan said, turning his head and leaving.

Li Gang's mind was also buzzing. He still admired this Gao Chong at the beginning, but why did this guy suddenly become so uncontrollable? You dare to rob the law. This is a serious crime. How can I spare you?

Liu Wei hurried forward and said, "Two adults, this Gao Pet is young after all, only 16 years old, so it is inevitable that he is impulsive. Both of them are old, so why should they compete with a child? Moreover, he is also working hard for the country, so he is inevitably a little anxious. I hope he will forgive me."

Li Gang was stunned, and then he realized that Gao Chong was really a child? His anger dropped a little, but Li Bangyan was even more angry. A child had such great energy. If he could grow up, it would be great. I finally got the opportunity, and I must kill him this time!

Thinking of this, Li Bangyan shouted loudly: "Child? Why can a child do whatever he wants? Besides, he is already 16 years old and is no longer a child! No, I must go to the official family to sue him! Let's take a look!"

"Hahaha! Li Langzi, who are you going to sue?" With a hearty laughter and the sound of horse hooves, a cavalry rushed over.

Li Gang and Li Bangyan were both surprised when they saw this person, but one was surprise and the other was frightened. The man's hair and beard were gray, and he was sick and had a bad look. He was in good spirits, his voice was loud, and there was a tiger roaring and thunder.

Moreover, he brought a powerful superior and a message of killing and decisive decisiveness, which made people feel frightened when they saw it.

"Old Master, Master! Are you going to Beijing? We are worry-free!" The two were stunned and quickly met.

This person is the name of Shidao (Chóng), whose courtesy name is Yishu, Han nationality, and from Jingzhao Prefecture. His original name was Jianzhong. Because he avoided the reign of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty, he changed his name to Shiji. Later, he was given the name of Shidao by Huizong.

Zhong Shidao was a famous general of the Song Dynasty; the great Confucian Zong Fang was the great grandson of the famous general Zong Shiheng. Zhong Shidao first took civil positions, but because of his strategy, he later changed his military positions and made contributions to resist the Western Xia Dynasty. He became a famous general and was respected as the "old general".

When the Jin people first went south, Zhao Ji hurriedly summoned Zhong Shidao to Beijing, and appointed him as the junior guard of the procuratorate, Jingnan Army, and the commander of the Hebei Governor of the capital, and had the right to recruit troops and grain on his own.

At that time, due to physical reasons, Zhong Shidao was living in seclusion in the Nanshan Leopard Forest Valley. After receiving the order, he knew that the country was in trouble, so he immediately traveled east to Yao Pingzhong's place and took Yao Pingzhong's infantry and cavalry with him to the north.

After Zhong Shidao arrived in Luoyang, he learned that Wanyan Zongwang had already stationed troops in the capital. Someone advised him not to go, saying, "The thief is in a strong position. I hope your troops stationed in Sishui will stay for a moment to find a complete solution."

Zhong Shidao said: "If our army has few soldiers. If we hesitate and fail to advance, we will expose the truth, but we will only bring shame to ourselves. Now that our army is advancing with great fanfare, how can the Jin people measure my reality? The military and civilians in the capital will naturally be excited when they hear that our army is coming. Do you still have to be afraid of the Jin thieves?"

While walking, Zhong Shidao posted notices along the way, claiming that Zhong Shaobao led a million soldiers from the Western Army to serve the king. The people on Jingji Road were excited.

Zhong Shidao arrived at the south bank of the Bian River in the west of the city, but did not retreat at all. He rushed to the enemy camp outside the west gate to station, and then he brought several capable generals and guards into the city alone to face the king.

The Jin people who were responsible for restraining the troops outside the West Gate heard the name of the Western Military Division and did not know the truth. They moved the camp a little north to restrict the cycling activities, and connected the camps to Wanyan Zongwang into a whole.

At that time, Zhong Shidao had lived a long life, and the world called him "Lao Zong". All Li Gang and Li Bangyan called him "Lao Zong Gong". Liu Wei was also from the Western Army and was a subordinate of Zhong Shidao. Although he was over 50 years old, he still knelt down and kowtowed when he saw Zhong Shidao.

"Liu Wei! Get up quickly! I still remember you. You have done well over the years and have not embarrassed our Western Army."

Liu Wei burst into tears with excitement and said, "I am ashamed of being accused of being accused of being accused of being accused of being accused of being accused of being accused of death." As he said that, he called his three sons over and introduced them to Mr. Zhong.

"Liu Ziyu, Liu Zihui, Liu Ziyi, I have heard that the three boys of your Liu family are all generals. It's really good."

Liu Wei was very excited and quickly said some polite words. After seeing them, Master Zhong greeted them, he said to Li Bangyan: "Li Langzi, why is this for the sake of being so angry today?"

Zhong Shidao is much better than Li Bangyan's official position, qualifications, and family background. Li Langzi made him have nothing to say. Liu Wei was still closest to Zhong Shidao and wanted to excuse Gao Chong, so he rushed to tell the story.
