Chapter 1227

In just a moment, a tall and burly, imposing-looking leader of the guard strode out of it, his steps were heavy, and every step seemed to have a thousand strengths. The man first looked at Wang Chong suspiciously, and then quickly spoke:

"Your Highness is not here, the King of the Exotic Land, please go back!"

The voice of the head of the guard was crisp and sharp, and after saying this, he immediately made a gesture to send off the guest.

"Absent, where did you go?"

Wang Chong asked.

The king of Song never left Beijing, and the capital division was so big, it was impossible to get anywhere.

"I don't know about this, in short, His Highness is not here, please go back!"

The head of the guard looked indifferent.

"In that case, let me meet the old butler!"

Wang Chong said.

"You'd better go back!"

The leader of the guards led the way, but this time he was much tougher.

But Wang Chong didn't argue anymore this time, but took a step forward and went straight to the Song Palace.

"Stop!"

Seeing this scene, everyone changed color. The spears in the hands of the two guards quickly aimed at Wang Chong, and the leader of the guards also looked cold and blocked Wang Chong's way. But the next moment, seeing what Wang Chong was doing, everyone's faces changed instantly.

"Song King Token!"

One of the guards couldn't help but change color.

The thing that Wang Cheng took out of his arms was nothing else, it was a token that King Song handed over to Wang Chong during the Battle of the Southwest.

"Get out of the way. ”

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears.

"Your Excellency, Butler. ”

Hearing that voice, for a moment, everyone stepped back. At the same time, Wang Chong raised his head, crossed the heavy space, and in front of the gate of the Song Palace, a familiar figure, in a black robe, stood above the steps.

I haven't seen him for more than half a year, the old housekeeper is as tough as ever, but there is a little more vicissitudes between his eyebrows, and the old housekeeper stands above and finally speaks slowly:

"Wang Chong, come in. ”

This time, no one stopped Wang Chong, and even the other guards who sensed the commotion at the gate in the distance also retreated one after another. Wang Chong walked through the entire mansion, stepping up the high steps step by step, and finally stopped in front of the old butler.

"Old butler, long time no see!"

Wang Chong bowed respectfully, just as he had seen the old butler for the first time.

"You haven't changed at all. ”

The old butler's worried face finally showed a smile. Shibei was impressed by the three days, and the current Wang Chong has far surpassed him in terms of martial arts, strength, and status. But he was still as courteous as ever, and this was what the old butler was pleased with.

"I heard that you returned to Beijing, I expected you to come, come with me!"

The old butler glanced at Wang Chong, quickly turned around and walked towards the main hall. Wang Chong followed closely behind.

The hall was quiet, as if entering another world.

The old butler sat down in the hall, lifted a delicate teapot on the table, and poured a cup for Wang Chong and himself. Wang Chong glanced at it, the tea in the teacup was still hot, steaming, obviously expected.

Wang Chong was silent for a moment and sat down beside the old butler.

"Wang Chong, I know you must have a lot of doubts in your heart, but the guards at the door didn't lie to you, King Song is indeed not here now. ”

The old butler put the teapot back on the table and said slowly.

Hearing this, Wang Chong didn't squeak, but his brows moved slightly. He looked at the old housekeeper's eyes, the old housekeeper's expression was as usual, just like when Wang Chong first saw him, at that moment, Wang Chong immediately knew that the old housekeeper was not lying.

"Where did King Song go?"

It seemed that there was only a moment, and it seemed that countless long centuries had passed, Wang Chong took a sip of the fragrant tea in the cup, and suddenly spoke.

"I can't answer you either, but His Highness does have something he has to do. ”

The old butler said softly:

"That thing,...... Your Highness is actually more confused and reluctant than you to pass such a resolution. His Royal Highness is the main battle faction in the court, and everyone understands this, whether it is you, Jiugong, or your father. ”

"But why did I send so many letters to King Song, but none of them replied, telling me what had happened? If King Song also had a last resort, then tell me what he was afraid of?"

Wang Chong said in a deep voice.

This time, the old butler didn't speak, just picked up the teapot on the table, and slowly poured himself a cup, and the tea in the pot hit the porcelain cup, making a loud sound. In the utter silence, the old butler finally spoke again:

"Wang Chong, His Highness also has His Highness's troubles, I can only tell you, in a few days, His Highness will definitely give you an answer, but before that, His Highness still needs to figure out one thing! Until then,...... He'll be able to answer all your questions!"

In the last sentence, the old housekeeper looked at Wang Chong with a deep gaze.

Wang Chong looked at the old butler and fell into a long silence, as if he had realized something.

"Got it!"

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Wang Chong's sleeves flicked slightly, and finally stood up, and then walked out quickly.

"Wang Chong, don't you want to ask about the events of that day?"

This time it was the old butler's turn to be surprised.

"No need!"

Wang Chong's voice echoed in the hall, and before the voice fell, the person had already walked out of the hall.

Outside the hall, the sun was shining, and the spring breeze was beating on his face, reflecting the disorder in Wang Chong's eyes. Until the end, Wang Chong still failed to meet King Song after all, and he failed to get the answer he wanted. However, in any case, King Song sent the old butler to tell himself that he would give himself an answer in a few days, and he finally had an explanation.

"Boom!"

Outside the street, the flow of people was surging, Wang Chong thought for a moment, and was walking in the direction of his house, when he suddenly heard an unfamiliar voice in his ears:

"My lord, do you want to get on the bus?"

"No need. ”

Wang Chong didn't think about it, and continued to walk forward, but soon heard a sentence in his ears:

"But didn't the adults already promise my lord that the dragon and tiger would get together and have a drink?"

"Buzz!"

Wang Chong's face changed slightly, and he turned his head sharply. At first glance, Wang Chong saw the coachman in the carriage, wearing a hat, the blue brim was pressed very low, and he couldn't see his face, he sat in front of him, driving a simple and simple carriage, there was nothing prominent on the carriage, and it was almost exactly the same as the carriage rented by the Jingzhong Business Traveler. However, when his gaze swept over a special mark on the wheel, the corners of Wang Chong's eyebrows couldn't help but jump slightly.

"Then give me a ride!"

Wang Chong quickly returned to normal, flicked his sleeves, and stepped on.

"Drive!"

Without saying a word, the coachman drove the carriage, which quickly merged into the surging flow of people, mixing with the other carriages in the capital. Walking all the way through the streets and alleys, back and forth, after walking for half an hour, I arrived at the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War.

As soon as Wang Chong got out of the carriage, someone from the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of War quickly stepped forward, covered Wang Chong, and quickly entered the mansion with Wang Chong in his arms. The carriage on the street only stopped for a moment, and then it got on the road again, and circled around the entire Jingshi.

"Boom!"

Just after Wang Chong stepped into the hall, there was a bang behind him, the door was closed, and at the same time, many candles lit up on the walls of the main hall, and the entire military department Shangshu Mansion was like a great enemy. Wang Chong watched all this silently, his face did not change in the slightest, but his heart jumped slightly, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Lord Zhang Qiu!"

Wang Chong shouted, quickly raised his head, and walked towards the familiar, mountain-like figure in front of him.

Just opposite Wang Chong, a figure dressed in civilian clothes and standing with his hands solemn seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

"Wang Chong, you're finally here. ”

Seeing Wang Chong, Zhang Qiu and Qiong breathed a long sigh of relief, and the whole person looked much more relaxed.

"Lord Zhang Qiu, has the situation in Beijing reached such a serious point? ”

Wang Chong said as he spoke, and walked over.

If you don't know, who would believe that the military department of the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Qiu and Qiong, who has the most powerful soldiers and horses in the world, want to convey a few news to himself at the city gate, and he actually uses the secret way of a note. Not only that, but the carriage when he came, including the carriage when he came, was also prepared by Zhang Qiu and Qiong. The level of security of the entire military department Shangshu Mansion does not look like the mansion of the imperial court, but more like a border campaign.

"Wang Chong, if you were like me and witnessed the changes within the Jingshi, you wouldn't say that. It's an eventful time, and the court is very different from what you knew before. ”

Zhang Qiu and Qiong sighed, then stretched out their hands and pointed, and the two sat down on either side of an ebony table.

There was no one in the hall, not even the maids and slaves who served, Zhang Qiu and Qiong lifted the teapot on the table, poured a cup for Wang Chong and himself, and then picked up the teacup, took a sip gently, and looked sad.

Wang Chong sat down and glanced at Zhang Qiu and Qiong's side face.

I haven't seen her for more than half a year, Zhang Qiu and Qiong's whole person looks obviously older, there are many wrinkles in the corners of her eyes and face, and she looks preoccupied. Zhang Qiu and Qiong are top martial artists, they have reached the peak of the Holy Martial Realm, the level of the imperial general, this level of character, Wang Chong can hardly believe what happened to make him so old in a short period of time.

"Lord Zhang Qiu, what happened that day, and why did the court become like this? The military department is the core of the world's soldiers and horses, and any transfer related to soldiers and horses, including appointments, will definitely not bypass the military department. There's no way they'll be able to bypass you and give that order, so my lord, I'll have to look for you!"

Hearing Wang Chong's words, a long sigh sounded in the hall:

"Looks like Wang Gan should have told you something. ”

Zhang Qiu and Qiong's expressions were complicated:

"You're right, it's really impossible for any troop movement to bypass me. I am indeed an insider, but one thing you think is wrong, I only know part of the situation in the court. ”
