Chapter 117: Iron Bone
"Lord Chancellor, be careful, the road is not smooth. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info" Feng Qing Yi Zhilan Yushu smiled in return, but the smile was only a flash in the pan and disappeared, and then he raised his hand, and the coachman immediately drove the carriage forward slowly.
Wei Jingyuan rode away, and his clear voice came from afar: "Thank you Lord Yushi for reminding me." ”
Leaning against the wall of the carriage, I listened to the harmony and tranquility of the roosters and dogs barking as the carriage passed through the village, and the noise of children laughing and playing, and the smiling shouts of adults. For a while, there was an illusion of being separated from the world, this village was so close to the wind, did the fire not affect them in the slightest?
Unable to suppress my curiosity, I lifted the curtain on the window.
The village was covered in heavy snow, and children ran to throw snowballs. The adults gathered around the fire under the wooden hut in groups of three or five, and the mountains and fields swept by the fire in the distance loomed in the snow. Where it wasn't covered by the snow, it was scorched black.
"City ...... Girl, who are you?" Feng Qingyi saw me lift the curtains, and then Le Ma was parallel to the carriage, and he seemed to be afraid of the villagers next to him deliberately changed their names.
He watched me quietly, silk ink hair and purple headbands fluttering in the cold wind. I came back to my senses and said to him, "Feng Gongzi, you come into the car, I want to know something." ”
"Wow. He agreed without hesitation, and then jumped into the carriage with grace, lifted the curtain and entered. He sat on the cushion opposite him and said, "What does the city lord want to know?"
I pursed my lips and combed through the piles of questions that were wrapped around my mind, and after a while, I actually asked an extremely stupid question: "Fengqing, what day is today?
"This ......" Feng Qingyi obviously didn't expect me to ask such a question, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at me sympathetically and said seriously: "Today is the fourth day of the first lunar month of the first year of Taishi, and it has been three days since you lost contact with the city lord in the fire. ”
"So, how did the assassins go, and how far did the aftermath of the dragon training fire go?" I eagerly tossed out the next wave of questions.
"Twenty-four Assassins were caught, and all of them, whether they were dead or not, were tied up at the outer gates of the city. The rioting people were also suppressed, and after hearing the news, the right general rushed back from afar in the starry night, and he personally climbed the city wall to clarify that the plague of the dragons was actually spread by thieves. He also braved the snow and repeated it on the city walls for a whole day, and almost everyone in the city knew about it. ”
Feng Qingyi's eyes shone with brilliance, and he continued with an expression of admiration: "In addition, General Right also wrote a clarification document in a parchment scroll and stamped it with his official seal. Subsequently, with the help of General Chengyi, the soldiers copied 30 copies and stamped the official seal, and then allocated 600 people, divided into a team of 20 people, each team carried a document from different directions to the village to pass on the clarification news. ”
I couldn't help but be amazed by this method and the speed of the second brother's actions, and at the same time a little guilty: "My second brother, that is, the right general, did he say anything about me......?"
"Yes. Feng Qingyi's answer shocked my heart, but he smiled elegantly, "General You, he will blame himself from time to time, he said that he shouldn't put such a big burden on a little girl, causing his sister to be in danger and missing in the fire." He said it was his fault. ”
"No!" I lowered my gaze, and my gaze was filled with moisture: "How can this be the fault of the second brother? The second brother was born and died in order to collect evidence of the seizure of power, and I am too useless......
The second brother's warm smile jumped into his mind, in fact, I hope he will be angry with me, even if he complains about me and scolds me in front of Feng Qingyi, that will at least make my little lady feel better.
But he didn't, he still loved me, loved me, and took all the blame on himself, second brother, how can I Qi Lingyu be so virtuous in this life, that I have such a good brother as you to love me?
"City Lord, you don't have to blame yourself. After all, no one expected that the enemy behind the scenes would have already extended their black hands to the Dragon Training, and you just happened to run into it. Feng Qingyi raised her hand and pressed my shoulders, gently soothing my emotions.
I didn't speak, and he silently withdrew his hand and sat down again.
After a moment of silence, he continued: "General Right has received an unexpectedly good result in all this, after the people who set the fire earlier knew the truth, they were not only willing to bow to the law but also competed to let their families sew tents, send food and medicine to the wind outlet, and other people also took the initiative to participate in the search and rescue of the dragons and survivors, they said that they hoped to atone for their sins. There was also good news from the various teams of pigeons, and although they had not yet completed all the cottages, they had achieved good results. The rumors of a plague outbreak among the dragons have actually been quelled. ”
"That ......" mentioned the search and rescue survivors, I was a little apprehensive, "how are Miao Yan and Fan Ren Fan Yi brothers now?" Although there was a fire in the sky that day, I didn't see clearly who was on the island, and I don't know if they escaped this catastrophe.
She fainted in the fire, but was confronted by the soldiers who were chasing the Assassins, and was carried out of the vent. As for the Fan brothers...... "Feng Qingyi hesitated, "Fan Yi is still alive, but he was slightly injured. Fan Renta...... It's an iron-clad man. ”
Listening to his words, I fell silent. The tears that had just been suppressed went straight to my eyes again, and I bit my lip tightly, unconsciously remembering the picture of Fan Ren blocking a group of assassins alone.
"I heard from the soldiers that when they found him, he was already in the dark, but he was still standing. At that time, he was stabbed more than a dozen times, covered in blood, still clutching his sword, staring at the front with his eyes open. The soldiers shouted at him with the audacity, his eyes moved, and after a few words he collapsed. ”
Feng Qingyi's words came slowly, with respect for Fan Ren.
But when I heard it, I felt very sad. Fan Renta...... What did you say?" I lifted my lips and found my voice shaking.
"He said, 'Tell the Lord that he is incapable of saving the city lord. Go quickly. Feng Qingyi looked away, pretending to be unintentional to look at the scenery outside the window. But I noticed that his knuckles were white on his knee, his hands clenched into fists.
There was silence in the car, except for the clattering hooves of horses and the clatter of wheels crashing against the ground.
I secretly wiped away my tears and tried to take deep breaths to make the tip of my nose less sore. The afterglow of the line of sight swept to the outside of the floating curtain, and the familiar scenery came into view, and the carriage had already arrived outside the Dragon City.
I simply leaned forward and lifted the curtain, looking at the silver-clad Dragon City.
Wei Jingyuan didn't expect me to lift the curtain, and suddenly hurriedly came over and grabbed the curtain with me: "City Lord, what are you doing? Come here, if the people recognize you......
