169 Second Watch
, follow the secret memory of the eight nights, and the black armor of the walker is in a hurry
.
This thought made Qi Han full of cold sweat and his face pale.
"Don't panic, listen to me. ”
Zhu Ling was frightened into a cold sweat by his appearance, and hurriedly said, "On the way back to the army, I camped in Dangshan for a while, entrusted two henchmen to take care of it, and then took a few former subordinates to Xiapi alone, and did not alarm outsiders. ”
"I wanted to ask around about Zhao Zilong, but I saw the edict in the city, and I was arresting him. Zhu Ling has always wondered in his heart, how could a person like the prince get involved with the thief party who assassinated the prime minister, "I didn't dare to make a noise, so I had to go to the local gentry's mansion to look for those marks, but I still found nothing." Finally, according to the instructions of the prince, I carved the flower-like figure in the lower corner of the city wall and the wall of the store I invested. ”
"I was already hopeless, and planned to leave Xiapi early the next morning and go back to the camp, but in the middle of the night, a big man broke through the window and broke into my room. Zhu Ling said, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, remembering the rudeness of that person, and he remembered it vividly.
Qi Han's eyes lit up: "It's my eighth brother who is here!"
Zhu Ling said: "I don't know the name of that man." He is so tall, like an iron tower, very majestic and mighty. As soon as he broke in, he pointed his short knife at me, and shouted in a fierce voice, 'You thief is so bold. Why do you scribble in the corners of the wall? But what kind of plague is it, and you are scribbling like crazy? ’”
Qi Han listened to him imitate Zhangba's straightforwardness and rudeness, and his original nervous and panicked mood relaxed slightly, and he couldn't help but ease his complexion, and a light smile appeared on his lips: "Yes, it must be him." He was the only one who spoke. ”
Zhu Ling said: "I was annoyed that the man was rude, and I was about to fight with him, but I remembered the entrustment of the prince, so I had to endure it." The man said that he had seen a sign by the city wall at sunset, and he had searched for it along the road, and only then did he see it outside the inn. After the Battle of Picheng, there were ruins everywhere, and I was the only guest in the inn, so he went straight in. ”
Qi Hanqi said: "I remember that there are several personal soldiers from Yuan Shao's place around you, who are very loyal to you, didn't I teach you to order them to stay in all directions and be secretly vigilant?"
Zhu Ling nodded: "I did arrange it according to what the prince said." But the big man didn't know what method he used, so he escaped my secret sentry and broke in alone with a knife. ”
Qi Han said: "Then you can continue." ”
Zhu Ling replied and continued: "The big man asked me in a staggering manner: 'Where is my little brother? After a while, he was very fierce: "If you have his mark, take out my brother quickly! Otherwise, the knife in my grandfather's hand will not be long-sighted...... I heard this cry in my heart, and thought to myself, how do I know who your brother is? When I was about to ask him, the big man stared at me suspiciously, his eyes wandering, and he was silent. It took a lot of tossing with this stupid man to teach him to dispel his doubts. Therefore, I was sure that he was familiar with Zhao Zilong, so I took out the letter from the prince and planned to ask him to send it to ......"
The more Qi Han listened, the more bad he felt.
If things go well, Zhu Ling will not talk about it in such detail, just pass it over and say that he will give the letter to Zhangba. But now that he is describing the details of his communication with Zhangba in such detail, he must have encountered trouble later and did not succeed?
Qi Han was already smart, and he was even more sensitive to the things on his mind, and immediately felt a deep uneasiness.
Sure enough, in the next second, I saw Zhu Ling's frown, and said, "At that time, I took out the letter and said to the man, 'This is what our son wrote to Zhao Zilong, and I will hand it over to you.'" The man stared at the letter without stretching out his hand, and only touched his head for a while, and said to himself: 'Ah, I actually forgot, Brother Qi is now Cao Cao's son...... Then he seemed to suddenly realize, suddenly reacted, and said with great joy, "It was a letter from my brother to the second brother, you can bring it quickly!" Seeing that he was reckless, and fearing that he would crumple the letter, I withdrew my hand and was about to give him a few more words, when suddenly I ......"
Qi Han's breath condensed. The nerves involuntarily tensed!
"Suddenly, the big man's face changed, he stretched out his hand to cover his right ear, and said sharply: 'Thief, dare to coax me into being fooled and send someone to set up an ambush to arrest me!'"
Zhu Ling twisted his eyebrows and looked at Qi Han in confusion: "Do you know why he suddenly covered his ears and talked about this?"
Qi Han's face was already extremely ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "I know." He has a kind of bass bee whistle hidden in his ears, which you outsiders cannot hear, but he must have a companion outside, who discovered the enemy, blew the bee whistle, and informed him. "Presumably ...... My father's men came. ”
Zhu Ling slapped his thigh: "I see! What the prince expected was not bad! I thought that the big man was crazy, and what kind of nerves did he have, but who knew that my personal soldiers would also enter quickly, and inform me that the prime minister's black-armored personal soldiers had arrived, and they were coming this way......"
The black-armored soldiers were the most courageous infantry guards under Cao Cao. It is well-equipped and brave, and it is as famous as the famous tiger and leopard horseman, and its combat power is extremely terrifying.
Qi Han looked anxious: "Did you let Zhangba leave? Did you burn the letter immediately? Didn't I tell you that once things change, you would rather not contact them than put them in danger?"
Zhu Ling hurriedly said: "I have taken everything to heart what the prince said! At that time, I immediately explained a few words to the big man, appeased him, and moved the letter to the oil lamp and burned it. At this time, all my personal soldiers returned, and told me that only the small city gate in the east had no Cao soldiers and could pass, so I asked the big man to leave quickly, so as not to reveal his whereabouts...... When the big man heard this, he glared at me fiercely, raised his eyebrows, roared at me, and then turned around and rushed into the night......"
Qi Han's eyes flashed slightly, and his hanging heart fell to the ground: "Fortunately, fortunately, he left...... Wenbo, you did a great job, that letter...... It also burns well. ”
Zhu Ling nodded: "Yes, it turns out that the prince of the world is the first to worry about the opportunity, and he has no last resort." If you hadn't reminded me to be on guard, those black-armored soldiers would have come suddenly, and I and the big man would have been caught!" Speaking of this, he was relieved and smiled freely, "After the big man left, we also hurried out of the city from the east, and we didn't dare to meet the prime minister's people......"
Qi Han shook his head and said, "No, you're wrong, those black-armored soldiers, I'm afraid that they will quietly follow you all the way." I'm just afraid that it will alarm you, so I should follow you farther away. This time, you have offended my father. ”
Zhu Ling's eyes widened in disbelief, his face full of confusion.
Qi Han's eyebrows frowned slightly, and he didn't know what he was thinking, and he was silent for a long time before he said: "Don't worry, my father is a person who loves talents, and in order to help me this time, although you offended him, if you can make contributions in the future, he will still use you." There will always be a time for you to get there. ”
Zhu Ling came back to his senses, thought about it, and said, "It's okay. A man dares to act boldly, if the lord really suspects me and hates me because of this, Zhu Ling should also be like this. When the time comes, you will only follow the son, anyway, in my eyes, you are also a prime minister. ”
Qi Han bowed slightly, shook his head and smiled, noncommittal.
……
This night, he tossed and turned, and lost sleep again.
The mood fluctuated like a roller coaster, but in the end, that letter still didn't reach Zhao Yun's hands after all.
Fortunately, fortunately, Zhang Ba can bring back the news that he sent someone, so that Zhao Yun knows one or two, knows that he eagerly wants to contact him, and knows that he is worried about him, 166 Reading Network
