Volume 1 The Decisive Battle of the Forbidden City Chapter 494 The Forbidden City (2) Father and Son in the Snow
The snow particles turned into snowflakes, and in a moment they were spread all over the ground, Ye Shenming wore a black silk black yarn folded scarf, wore a black and black silver-edged windbreaker, and walked towards the carriage waiting outside the house.
But just halfway through, Zu Yuwen shouted behind him: "Ye Twelve!"
Ye Shenming turned his head and looked at Zu Yuwen, but found that she was already crying, his heart was warm, his nose was slightly snorted, and he asked, "What's the matter with Madam?"
Zu Yuwen took a deep breath, suppressed the sadness and worry in his heart, and said, "Twelve...... Shen Ming, husband, go home early. ”
Ye Shenming said "um" vigorously, but he didn't say anything, and at this time, nothing is worth a thousand words.
Then he turned around and went to the Xuanyi carriage that had been prepared for him.
When they got closer, they saw that Li Changsheng, the commander of the Ming Dynasty, and four or five Xuanyi captains were already standing beside the carriage.
Li Jing raised his arm and saluted: "The subordinates clearly judge Li Changsheng, see General Ye." ”
Ye Shenming nodded slightly, and said, "Brother Li is polite, Ye is just a gentleman, and he can't be like this." Over the years, presumably Brother Li has worked hard for most of the divisions, and Ye is grateful. ”
Li Changsheng shook his head and said: "The person who works for Mingjie is the Grand Governor, and the Prime Minister Mingjuji has all affairs. Moreover, the general does not have to be polite with his subordinates, the Grand Governor has already made it clear that the role of the clear judgment is to inspect all kinds of lawlessness inside the Xuanyi, and anyone should act according to the law, and the iron face is ruthless. Who is the Lord has nothing to do with us. ”
Ye Shenming's heart trembled, and he said secretly: "This is a special position set up for me by Zhi'an! ”
Thinking of this, Ye Shenming's face was solemn, and he said: "For the public of the world, for the public of the world, from the beginning of the Ming Division, we are the apostles of the law who walk in the world! ”
A smile suddenly appeared on Li Changsheng's face, this was really a very rare thing, if it was seen by the other Xuanyi, they would definitely think that this "cold-faced Yama King" had become abnormal. Li Changsheng, who has always looked good, can laugh? It's really strange in the world......
And such a smile will naturally not be seen by them, because this smile will quickly retract and it is impossible for others to see it.
The reason why this smile appeared was because he let him say to him when he was just promoted to the captain of the Ming Judgment Division: "Ming Judgment is to take Ming as the right, and the light is interrupted, and in front of the Ming Judgment Division, there is only the fairness of the law and balance, and there are no other miscellaneous matters." Those who are clear and decisive must be fair and impartial, and ruthless. ”
"Today is the clear judgment of Xuanyi, and tomorrow it can be the clear judgment of the world. I am the Grand Governor, and I could have led the decision, but because I have too many personal feelings, I can't be fair and just, so I have to bother you to remind me at any time. However, Li Changsheng, there is one person, he will definitely do the thing of 'daring to be the public of the world', that person is the general of the Ming Judgment Division, because he has great determination......"
Li Changsheng didn't understand who this person was at first, and this question puzzled him for a long time, until today's fifth watch, when the Grand Governor said to him: "Go and pick up your general." ”
Then Li Changsheng came here, but when he heard that his general was actually a gentleman, Li Changsheng was still a little disappointed.
But thinking about it again, the Grand Governor is also a gentleman, and after he is still the "first gentleman in the capital", his mood has eased somewhat, and he thinks in his heart, hoping that there can really be a "clear" person in the gentleman.
Now, when Li Changsheng heard Ye Shenming's sentence: "For the public ...... the world We are the law", he felt that this general was really good. That smile represents his initial recognition of Ye Shenming......
When Zu Yuwen watched Ye Shenming leave in front of the house, Sun Xiaohong, dressed in a short dress, appeared next to her and said, "Sister Yuwen, don't worry, with me, Ye Shenming can't die." ”
Zu Yuwen turned his eyes to look at her, but saw that Sun Xiaohong had already walked away and headed in the direction of the carriage.
When Ye Shenming was just about to step into the carriage, a small deerskin boot stepped on the wheel, blocking his way.
Ye Shenming turned his eyes and saw that the owner of the boots was Sun Xiaohong.
Sun Xiaohong said lightly: "Ye Gongzi, let's go together." ”
After saying this, regardless of whether Ye Shenming agreed or not, Sun Xiaohong rushed directly into the carriage.
Ye Shenming shook his head slightly, didn't care, and stepped into the carriage.
The carriage moved lightly and headed in the direction of the Forbidden City.
The snow was falling, and the bluestone road was already accumulated, and the wheels were crushing on the soft snowflakes, making a "squeak, squeak" sound.
Along the way, neither of the two people in the carriage spoke.
Sun Xiaohong closed her eyes and recuperated and remained silent.
Ye Shenming rubbed the "Zhengwu Sword" given to him by Li Zhi'an with a silk handkerchief, and the more he looked at it, the more satisfied he became, this was simply tailored for his swordsmanship, the sword was sharp and not easy to break, and the sword body was thin and not easy to break, just for a "thorn" word.
sighed silently in his heart: "Zhi'an has a heart, it is rare to weigh one pound and four points, light and abnormal, and it will be cast from cold iron." This kind of sword style, I am afraid that only the Xuanyi will be able to cast the courtyard, if it is other craftsmen, either they can't melt the cold iron and gold steel, or the thin sword cast is too fragile, and it will be broken if it hits. ”
Ye Shenming rubbed this sword and couldn't put it down.
The carriage traveled for a while, and when Ye Shenming was still admiring and loving this sword, he heard Sun Xiaohong speak and asked, "Master Shenming, are you friends with Li Zhi'an?"
Ye Shenming nodded lightly, which was considered to be an answer to her, and he still thought in his heart that during the battle, the thin sword would break through the true power and pierce some things into the human body.
Sun Xiaohong said, "Are you going to see him later?"
Ye Shenming still nodded and said nothing.
Sun Xiaohong said, "Can you do me a favor?"
Ye Shenming sighed helplessly, put the sword back into its sheath, and asked, "Miss Sun, what do you want Ye to help you?"
Sun Xiaohong said: "Let Han Haibo go, and don't return at night to help Xuanyi and the Dong family fight this time, and defend the throne for the pro-martial emperor." ”
Ye Shenming nodded and said, "Well, yes, let me ask, how many people are there in the capital that you don't return at night?" Except for my wife, she can only be your liaison, and other things have nothing to do with her." ”
Sun Xiaohong was speechless for a while, except for her and Han Haibo, there didn't seem to be any characters who could handle it at night.
When Ye Shenming saw her appearance, he sighed helplessly and said, "Miss Sun, the five northern provinces are all Xuanyi's territory, and this is the capital, which is the headquarters of Xuanyi, and other forces really can't compare with Xuanyi." With Xuanyi's ability to inspect, who are you in Beijing if you don't return at night, Xuanyi is clear......"
As soon as Ye Shenming spoke, he heard Li Changsheng outside the carriage reply: "The number of people in Beijing who do not return at night is thirty-eight, nineteen people are on duty in various yamen, and the positions are high, and the rest are from all walks of life, eight first-class masters, and the rest are second-rate and third-rate, except for Lu Songqing and Guo Yi, there is no grandmaster." And these two people are not in Beijing because of the official business of the Ji Kou Division, and if the master wants to see the detailed catalog, his subordinates can be transferred from the Blue and White Division. ”
After saying this, Li Changsheng stopped speaking.
When Ye Shenming heard the return, he smiled slightly and said, "Miss Sun, may I ask what you can help Xuanyi?"
Sun Xiaohong said angrily unconvinced: "Are Xuanyi all such rat-eyed people? I don't return at night, there is a 'Tianji Old Man', there is an 'Iron Sword' Guo Songyang, there is Wudang Shenxuzi, a great grandmaster, two grandmasters are complete, and there are too many places where Xuanyi will not return at night in the future, do you look down on people like this?"
Ye Shenming shook his head and said lightly: "Miss Sun, in the public speech, there is something to say." No matter how many amazing characters you have when you don't return at night, Xuanyi will always pass this level. If the current Xinwu Emperor can't ascend the throne smoothly, there will be no more Xuanyi. ”
Sun Xiaohong was stunned, and forced herself to ask: "Is his Li Zhi'an's vision so shallow? You know, you don't return ...... night?"
Ye Shenming interrupted: "Miss Sun, Ye Mou will lie again, his vision is shallow, he will always pass this level and then talk about other things, do you think it is necessary to talk about other things?"
Sun Xiaohong immediately said: "I am the grandmaster, you tell Li Zhi'an that I participated in this battle, and after this battle, let Han Haibo ......"
Ye Shenming shook his head, took out his fine thorn sword, held the silk handkerchief again, wiped it lovingly, and said no more. Originally, according to his original idea, for the sake of his wife's face, it would not be a big deal to go to Li Zhi'an to ask for a favor, but now after seeing Ming Xuansi's style of acting, such an idea is gone.
Outside the car, heavy snow was filled, and the wheels crushed over the snow, making a "squeaking" sound.
Li Changsheng frowned and shook his head outside the carriage, but he didn't say anything.
When passing by the Jiang family archway, a healthy horse blocked their way. Immediately sat an old man in bright yellow armor, in his fifties, nearly sixty years old.
His face was a little thin, but he looked a little elegant, with a little melancholy between his eyebrows.
In terms of appearance and figure, he should have been a scholar, but this bright yellow armor on him also looked very natural. He gives people the feeling that he is a Confucian general.
The carriage was blocked and stopped suddenly, and Ye Shenming in the carriage frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Outside, Li Changsheng replied: "One person and one horse block the way, I don't know if it's friend or foe." ”
Ye Shenming smiled and thought to himself, has this begun? It seems that he is going to do it, maybe he will kill someone.
Thinking like this, he glanced at Sun Xiaohong, who was a little ashen, bowed up, raised his sword and stepped out of the horse.
The vast snowflakes fell, and the people riding horses in front of them were a little unclear.
Ye Shenming exhaled, clenched the scabbard, and stepped forward.
After walking a few steps, Ye Shenming saw the appearance of the person on the horse, his face changed, and he immediately knelt down, and said, "The twelve sons of the Ye family, who are not filial, have seen my father." ”
As he spoke, he prostrated in a deep voice.
There was a heavy snowfall, and Ye Chonglou, who was on the horse, sighed softly, his eyes were full of desolation, and asked, "Have you thought about it?"
Ye Shenming knelt in the snow and said nothing.
