Chapter 256: Cheng Yuan
Woohoo, one last resort, give some gold. But this is not reliable, in the past, it was true that there was money to make ghosts grind, but recently, a large number of Huaihai ronins have infiltrated the territory of the Yong Dynasty, and the government is secretly arresting it.
Forget it, let's go over first, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, if there is really no road, I have to return the same way, and then in a few minutes, she can see Sikong Yan who came to catch her.
Thinking of Sikong Yan, Shen Lanying only felt fear trembling in her heart, she didn't forget that the last time she ran away, Sikong Yan deliberately waited for her poisonous hair to come to her in order to punish her. and his terrifying momentum, full of cold murderous aura, and the look in his eyes makes people feel that life is full of fear and despair just at a glance.
Woo, careerist, I'm not running away this time, I'm just looking for Li Yunxuan, don't get me wrong. Shen Lanying complained bitterly in her heart, she left in a hurry, and forgot to leave a note, now she is okay, she has to face the careerist under the anger again.
Shen Lanying galloped on her horse, did she take a look at the cult equipment and confirm Li Yunxuan's location. Li Yunxuan's direction of travel was Shaoyang Pass, but she didn't seem to be familiar with the map of Longzhou, and she didn't take the best route, which caused the distance between Shen Lanying and Li Yunxuan to gradually shorten.
Half an hour later, the towering Shaoyang Pass finally appeared in front of him, but by this time the sun had set and the city gate had been closed. The cult equipment shows that Li Yunxuan successfully cleared the customs as early as 10 minutes ago and went to the depths of Lanzhou.
Shen Lanying controlled the horse to descend and stopped under the city gate. At this time, there were only two soldiers guarding the gate on the ground, standing on both sides of the gate, and the city wall was lit with fires, and there were guarded posts every five meters.
It's really heavily guarded, it seems that the Huaihai Ronin who infiltrated the Yong Dynasty has not been caught, and it seems that the efficiency of the court is not very good. Shen Lanying complained in her heart, turned over and dismounted, pulled down the veil on her face by the way, and walked up to a soldier, with a warm smile on her face, "Brother Bing, I have something urgent to go out of the city, can you be accommodating?"
From the perspective of the guards guarding the city, a slender woman in blue galloped from afar in the afterglow of the setting sun, and came to his side, removing her veil to reveal a smiling character's face, and the beauty of the city and the country was overwhelmed.
Shen Lanying kept smiling, the muscles on her face were about to stiffen, and the soldier still didn't react. Just opened his mouth slightly, staring at her blankly. Shen Lanying repeated the question again, and the soldier came back to his senses, and he was about to agree to the consciousness of being brainwashed by beauty, but he suddenly remembered the order of his superiors, and shook his head vigorously, "No, no, the chief of the guard has an order, and we can't disobey the order if the city gate is closed after dark." Girl, let's wait until tomorrow. ”
When the soldier said this, his eyes were still staring at Shen Lanying unsmoothly, his expression was still in a semi-free state, and Shen Lanying was speechless for a while. It's been a long time since I've seen a woman in this soldier, and I'm staring at her in a daze. Didn't there be military prostitutes in the Yong Dynasty? Or was there too few military prostitutes for the soldiers at the bottom to take their turns? Then the government should give military prostitutes a salary increase.
Shen Lanying suppressed the speechlessness in her heart, folded her hands, and looked at the guards with blank eyes, "Brother Bing, please, just be accommodating, I am really in a hurry." You see me like this, I can't be a bad person. ”
The soldier swallowed his saliva and said dumbfoundedly, "Little sister, you really make it difficult for me, this is really not something I can decide......"
Shen Lanying reluctantly put away her movements and asked another question, "Who is the biggest chief here in Shaoyang Pass?" After a pause, she asked again, "Can you call him out?"
The soldier was stunned, and before he could answer, a deep male voice sounded behind Shen Lanying, "This captain is here, no need to call." I would like to advise the girl, where did you come from, where to go back. Otherwise, if the lieutenant reports the girl's bribery to the soldiers, the military law is ruthless, and the girl can't afford it. ”
Hey, there's a big guy, that's great. Shen Lanying turned her head happily, but she was stunned for a moment. The big guy who just spoke was also stunned. After staying in this state for two seconds, the man knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and said urgently, "Cheng Yuan should be damned, I don't know if His Highness came to ask His Highness to surrender his guilt." ”
Wow! That's great! Not only the big guy, but also the big guy who knows Princess Zhaoying!
As soon as Cheng Yuan knelt, the two soldiers guarding the city looked at each other in fear, and hurriedly knelt down, and the soldier who had communicated with Shen Lanying was even more frightened. Who would have thought that the girl who asked to go out of the city after dark was Princess Zhaoying? He not only refused her request to leave the city, but also stared at her unscrupulously for a long time, which was not enough to kill a few fucking heads.
In fact, Shen Lanying was also stunned, she couldn't have imagined that the big guy who appeared at Shaoyang Pass was Cheng Yuan. Shen Lanying knew this person, because Sikong Yan and Ban Xian'er had given her detailed information about Cheng Yuan, and this person had a few encounters with Princess Zhaoying.
In the Yong Dynasty, literati participated in the imperial examination every three years, but those who practiced martial arts could participate in the martial arts competition held in the capital every year. The audition is something that the whole people can watch, and it is a grand event that the people talk about. Contestants are limited to civilians, and the top five will be recruited into the army as generals. Cheng Yuan was a master who won the first place many years ago, and later followed Luo Haifeng into Yanping Pass, repeatedly performed miraculous feats, and was named the general of the left servant, and his official position was only one grade lower than that of Dongfangli.
How could he appear in Shaoyang Pass? He also claimed to be ...... Lieutenant, lieutenant, demoted three ranks, what mistake did he make?
Shen Lanying squatted down and personally helped him up, her tone extremely surprised, "Why is the general here?"
Cheng Yuan's eyes darkened, "This matter is a long story......
Don't talk about it, man!
Shen Lanying was sad and angry at Cheng Yuan's debasement on the surface, but in fact, she was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, she was stopped by the pass and it was enough to delay time, and she actually met an old friend of Princess Zhaoying who urgently needed to pour bitter water, God, play with her!
With Sikong Yan's ability, she will definitely be able to find out that the situation is wrong at the first time, and it is estimated that the time for her absolute safety is only ten minutes.
"Don't worry, General, when I come back, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and return the general's innocence. "The implication is that I'll talk about other later, so let me get out of the city now.
Cheng Yuan is worthy of being an old friend of Princess Zhaoying, and his mind is still very bright, and he immediately heard what Princess Zhaoying meant, "Your Highness is in a hurry to get out of the city?"
