Chapter 57: A Door Away (Thank You for Your Monthly Pass)

The door of the nine-fold palace was wide open, and the noise and discussion outside the palace came to the face, including the people, the courtiers, the guards, and the foreign merchants......

Outside the palace were all kinds of sounds, all of which she had deliberately ignored before.

Now all of them are in her ears.

When the people saw the carriages and horses of Ruo Ao's dynasty, they knelt on the ground and saluted to give way.

Constant whispers were heard.

"After that, if the horse master really defeats the Jin Kingdom, I'm afraid that the Chu Kingdom will really change the world. ”

"Of course, Master Ma was originally the first son of Chu State, and now he is the husband of the princess, and he will be the father of the little prince in the future. ”

"That's just sitting there. ”

……

The people pointed in the direction of the Chu Palace, and Mi Huang turned around to see the dazzling golden palace of Hezhu Palace, there!

Her father's position?

Or is it her place?

Where are their children?

It's a pity that all these voices, her father, who lives in a heavy palace, will never be able to hear them, and even if these voices float over the palace walls, they will not be able to float into his ears.

Xiao Zhengzi Siqin and the others kept following Mi Huang's side, and asked in a loud voice, "Lady, where are we going now? ”

Hearing this, Mi Huang raised his head and walked towards the entire main city street, a long queue came out of the palace of the king of Chu, passing through the city, and the wind lifted the curtain to reveal the face of Zhao Changshi, who was usually smiling slightly in the middle palace car, and Ling Yin, who was sitting opposite, but Ling Yin's calm face in the past, today it seems a little more jumpy, but he saw a bright yellow jade silk in front of his desk in the car.

It was the king of Chu who proposed to add the seal to the jue.

At this time, the main city street, the north city street, the south city street, the servants are like clouds, the crown covers each other, the carriages and horses are connected, the streets are guarded by the soldiers and horses of the five cities and the government soldiers on both sides, the gongs and drums are noisy, the silk and bamboo are deafening, and the alleys are empty.

On the side of the street, several courtiers of all sizes passed by Wanji wontons and greeted Bu Yin who was in the lower court, "Bu Yin, why are you still setting up a stall here? Hurry up, Lord Ling Yin will definitely set up a banquet today, entertain the ministers, and celebrate the victory of the horses!"

Bu Yin, who was standing in front of the Wanji wonton shop, shook his head, "Now I am shy in my naan, if you go, please give this congratulatory letter to the adults, congratulate me on my behalf, and hope that the horse can win again, I won't go." After speaking, Bu Yin took out a congratulatory letter from his arms that had been written a long time ago.

"Bu Yin, you can't do this. ”

Wang Yin, who was an official in the same dynasty, kindly persuaded him and accepted his congratulatory letter.

Bu Yin only persuaded them to leave, so he continued to set up his hexagram stall, and the cloth flag with the words "Three trigrams a day, no money if you don't work" fluttered in the wind, and then he sat behind the hexagram stall with an unchanged face and watched the busy procession pass in front of him.

After leaving, the ministers pointed their fingers one after another, "This Bu Yin is inferior to the soldiers, and it is a ...... that Lord Yin is favored."

"No wonder it fell into the field of setting up a stall. ”

Wang Yin sighed in a low voice, and left with the ministers, never to associate with him again.

……

Xiao Si stood on the door of the Wanji wonton shop and saw this scene, and kindly pushed him, "Lord Bu Yin, this is a good time to stutter, as those adults said, today's first battle of the horse is a big victory, if you go late, you will be hated by Lord Yin." ”

"I'm a little Yin, with meager official qualifications, even if I enter this door, I can't raise a decent gift, so I don't want to go. ”

Bu Yin shook his head and said, "Besides, Lord Ling Yin is not narrow-minded, it's just that I don't want to wade into the troubled waters today." As he spoke, his gaze fell on a blind woman in the crowd.

"This is muddy waters, this is monstrous wealth. ”

Xiao Si pointed to the team on the street where Zhao Chang Shi issued an edict and ordered Yin Zi to return to the house and smashed his tongue and said, "Look at the gongs and drums along the way, this horse has not yet won the Jin Kingdom, and has been so generously rewarded, along the way the red satin paving, the golden sky is overwhelming, the golden phoenix covers the road, the palace beauties are accompanied by Han Yu, and thousands of tiger soldiers are guarding on both sides, it is the king who travels, and that's it." ”

The carriages and horses stretch all the way, and there is no end in sight.

Wherever they passed, the people knelt down in courtesy.

"When the moon is full, it loses, and it prospers to decline. ”

Bu Yin's eyes calmly looked at those courtiers with jade belts around their waists, wearing court clothes, wearing treasures, and bringing their families as if they were attending a state banquet, and said slowly, Xiao Si hurriedly covered his mouth when he heard this, "Lord Bu Yin can't say this on the street, he wants to ask for guilt!"

Then his gaze fell on the commander of the Five Cities Terracotta Division who suddenly turned around on the street, and smiled and arched his hand, "Official, we didn't say anything!"

The other party glared back, and saw that Bu Yin, who was dressed in white, although he received a fierce light in his eyes, he still slammed the halberd in his hand to the ground, and drank the people around him who were watching the excitement, "All go back, Zhao Changshi's chariot and horse are here!"

When the people heard this, they hurriedly retreated, but they still stretched their necks to look at the streets of Beicheng, wanting to witness this grand competition in the air, only to see Zhao Changshi walking down the palace car under the escort of the forbidden army, unveiling the jade decree, and preaching loudly, "The lonely son-in-law, Ziyan, the Chu and Jin wars, the Chu and Chen first battles, the establishment of the first merit, the few people are happy, and the reconsideration of the award, the seal of a thousand families, the gift of a brocade silk, the sealing of the first-class marquis, and the hereditary replacement."

Crowned marquis, all etiquette was handed over to the ceremonial Yin to be handled on the day of the triumph of the horse.

Chin!"

At the same time, the ceremonial flowers bloomed during the day, shining throughout Beicheng Street, like the New Year's Festival.

In front of Ruo Ao Mansion, the three rivet Zhu Men were all opened, and the red brocade was spread all over the Beicheng Street from the middle of the house, and red festive lanterns were hung along the street, so that Yin Zi got out of the car, and Ruo Ao Ziliang took the one hundred and twenty-eight clansmen of the Ruo Ao clan to kneel down again to receive the order, thank Long En, and put a flowing water banquet on Chu Zhong Hall to entertain the civil and military officials and the ceremonial officials.

"There is Lao Zhao Changshi, and Madame will see the reward!" Ling Yin Zi stood up and said with a smile.

"Yes. ”

Mrs. Wang happily ordered the housekeeper to give a generous gift.

Zhao Changshou smiled and ordered someone to accept it, "Then Zhao De is also respectful, it is better to obey his fate, and today he will be touched by the joy of the horse master!"

Ling Yin Zi smiled and invited Zhao Changshi to go in with him, and all the civil and military officials followed, lively and noisy, and then the people continued to step forward, wanting to see the knighthood written on the jade silk covered with the vermilion seal.

This is a rare new marquis in the past ten years, but I didn't expect it to fall on Ruo Ao's head.

A woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd who kept stabbing forward, and shouted at the Ruoao clan who was about to walk up the steps, "You return my son!" Then because the guards were still far away, and I didn't know how she did it, she quickly rushed forward and grabbed Ruo Ao Ziliang's arm who was at the end, "You return my Liu'er!"

"Give back my Liu'er!"

"Where did Diao Min come from, take it away!"

Ruo Ao Yuejiao frowned when she saw this, and ordered someone to pull her away, but the shock happened at this time, and suddenly a small knife for cutting vegetables suddenly stretched out from her sleeve, and stabbed Ruo Ao Ziliang's body, and suddenly the blood flower soaked Ruo Ao Ziliang's Sima court clothes, and a small red blood flower bloomed, Aunt Liu stubbornly pulled Ruo Ao Ziliang's arm and shouted, "You sent my Liu Er to the battlefield, and you returned my son!

If Ao Ziliang held down his abdomen in a panic and pushed her to the ground when he heard the words, the soldiers of the twenty-seven or eight soldiers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division saw that this was not right, and immediately pounced on her with halberds and trapped her.

Ruo Ao Yuejiao took a step forward and looked at the woman who fell to the ground, her eyes cold.

"Dare to assassinate my father, kill!"

Ling Yin Zi frowned, his originally pleasant face was closed, and he frowned and looked at the more than 20 halberds that were mercilessly slashed down on the head under the order of Ruo Ao Yuejiao, and the sound of the halberd entering the flesh and even the bones sounded with a "poof", and red blood gushed out from the woman who fell to the ground.

For a while, the ministers who were originally very lively were first shocked, and then silenced.

The terrible screams ran through the entire long street, and suddenly all the laughter, greetings, congratulations, and abruptly stopped, and a cool autumn breeze slowly swept down the long street, and the heavy smell of blood muddied the originally refreshing air with the breeze.

Zhou Jinghua looked at this scene, and was slightly surprised at first, but immediately recovered, walked to Mrs. Wang's side and held her hand intimately and said, "Auntie, on a good day like today, don't spoil Xingzi because of a pariah." When her words fell, all the noblewomen echoed her.

Mrs. Wang frowned slightly, and also looked at this scene with displeasure, and said angrily, "It's really unlucky, come here, go and clean up the front of the door, don't scratch today's wedding banquet to celebrate the son!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

The housekeeper looked at her, quickly ran out of Ruoao's mansion, lifted Aunt Liu who fell in a pool of blood in front of the door like garbage, threw her on a small board car and dragged it away, and then someone came out with a bucket of water and quickly washed the blood stains on the ground with buckets of water, and when it was rinsed away, there was a maid lying on the ground and wiping it with a dry cloth without even a little water stain, and finally it was re-paved with a new red silk brocade forging, and everything returned to the original state.

Aunt Liu's roar echoed in the ears of the people one moment ago, but the next moment it ceased to exist.

The people had recognized her, but they did not dare to speak.

In this way, in a daze, silently, with red eyes, he watched Ruo Ao do all this, as if every time in the past, watching them carry Aunt Liu's body away from them, all the way to the end of Nancheng Street.

There is an ash pit landfill there.

Ruo Ao Ziliang was helped into the mansion by Ruo Ao Yuejiao, but his eyes frequently turned back and looked at the woman they carried away.

He also recognized that the blind woman was Aunt Liu who reported the case in front of the prison department.

For a while, on the long street, the silence was extremely strange.

At this moment, a shout suddenly sounded in the crowd to pierce the strange silence: "Auntie!"

Everyone turned around and saw that it was Lao Wan, the shopkeeper of Wanji Wonton Shop, who didn't find Aunt Liu's person in the shop just now, so he came out to look for someone by himself, but he didn't expect to see this scene, "Auntie, aunt!" He wanted to rush forward, but was immediately grabbed by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, Ruo Ao Yue Jiao Senhan's eyes instantly met him, "Come on, arrest him together!"

"Yes, sir!"

A group of wolf-like soldiers and horses of the Five Cities set up Lao Wan and left.

The old man saw that this scene was wrong, and hurriedly ran back, until Wanji Wonton slammed the door and entered, "Oh no! Your shopkeeper was arrested, and Aunt Liu was also killed!"

"What?"

Xiao Si, who was ordering food, suddenly turned his head when he heard this, and what was even more shocked than him was the woman in a gorgeous costume sitting next to him.

"Princess, Aunt Liu just stabbed Master Sima with a knife, and was killed on the spot by Captain Ruoao, and when Lao Wan saw it, he was arrested on the spot by the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division ordered by Captain Ruoao and put him in the prison of the Captain!" The old man saw that it was the princess, and rushed to her as if he had seen a savior, and said anxiously.

"Why did she suddenly run away to assassinate Ruo Ao Sima?" asked Huang quickly.

The old man shook his head, he didn't know.

Xiao Si suddenly remembered, "Oh no, I know! It must be the 50,000 homeless people who were sent to the battlefield by Captain Ruoao Duwei in the gossip of the store, which is now the homeless people who have registered to report the case, so that my aunt heard it, and then my aunt must have taken advantage of our busy time...... A person touched the knife from the back kitchen and went to Ling Yin's mansion. ”

"Yes, yes, she shouted that she was going to ask for someone from Lord Duwei, and that she wanted them to return her Liu'er...... But he injured Master Sima in a misguided manner, and was killed on the spot by Captain Ruoao......" The old man's eyes were red when he said this, "Now...... Now even the old man has been arrested into the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, and I am afraid that it will be more than lucky. ”

Thinking of Ruo Aoduwei's murderous name, he said anxiously, "Lady, please, save Lao Wan! My aunt is also a hard-working person, Uncle Zhang died in battle, and Liu Er was abducted again! Now she is blind and lonely by herself, and she has been looking for so many years...... I didn't expect that there was finally hope, so I ended up miserable...... Even Lao Wan took it!"

Before he could finish his sentence, the woman beside him was no longer in place, and walked towards the door.

At the door, Bu Yin stopped her and said, "The princess went for nothing!"

"You can't come back to life after you die!"

"Then died in vain?"

"Everyone has only one life. ”

Not everyone is lucky enough for her to come back from the dead.

I don't know when a dark cloud blew in the sky again, a gust of autumn wind blew, rolled up the woman's wide sleeves and the long hair behind her head, standing on the door of Wanji wonton, her eyes were as sharp as mang, her eyebrows raised and turned her head to look at Bu Yin, one hand caressing her towering abdomen, just like yesterday there was a pair of warm hands touching her unborn child like this, as if touching her willow.

But now such a living life has become a corpse.

Just like every time I came before, the luxury of Beicheng Street seemed to be heaven and earth.

Across the street.

On one side is the clouds, and on the other side is hell.

One door away.

Inside is the Zhumen wine banquet, and outside is the corpse and bones.

It is autumn now, the shady green trees are yellowing, and the noon sun shines on the bluestone brick-paved Beicheng Street, which should have a layer of light like gold, but because of the sudden dark clouds, he suddenly hid behind the dark clouds, and brought a layer of dark shadows.
