loyalty

After picking up the wind and washing the dust of the wooden pole Khan that day, Xiao Zimo waited in Weiyang Palace for another four or five days, not only did there still be no response in Yecheng, but even the movement of Chang'an was a little strange. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Yuwen Wu didn't show up again for several days, and Yuwen Yong, who came to compete with him for three days, didn't enter this Yongyan Palace again. The Northern Zhou forbidden army said that it was to protect the safety of the envoys of the Qi State and strengthened the guards of the Yongyan Palace. How could Xiao Zimo not know the rules of martial law in this palace, first, he was afraid that outsiders would sneak in, and secondly, he was afraid of people in the palace sneaking out, and right now, it was obviously the latter who was trapped here.

"Che Guard, haven't you heard anything?What about those brothers outside the palace?" Zi Mo asked Che Yan, who had just returned, she urgently needed to know the current situation. Recently, as long as Zi Mo asked the guards to pass on the news that she wanted to see Yuwen Hu, the reply was only that Lord Tsukasa had every opportunity to deal with the situation, and the state affairs were busy, and the prince of Lanling would be calm and impatient, and he would meet in a few days.

"Lord, I tried my best to find out the information from the guards of the Zhou State, and our brother who went out before was originally settled in the post station, and it was originally agreed to contact every three days, but now the contact has been cut off, could it be 。。。。。。 I was caught by the old thief of Yuwen Hu. ”

Zi Mo clenched his fists, stood up with his hands in his hands, stood beside the pillar of the hall, pondered for a moment, and said: "This shouldn't be, my Gao Changgong is still in this Weiyang Palace, and I am the best hostage." The brothers outside the palace should have noticed that the situation had changed, and they were too eye-catching in the post station, so they hid their traces. ”

"These minions are really bold, you are still in the palace, you dare not listen to orders and act without authorization, and you don't think about rescuing yourself first, Lord Wang, please forgive me, it is all the responsibility of Che Yan to discipline him on weekdays. The car guard frowned, knelt on the ground with his fists clenched, and begged for forgiveness.

"No, Che Guard, this group of brothers you led is very brave and strategic, they saw that the situation was not right, and took those few envoys who did not know martial arts to hide first and then make plans, I think it is also for us to save our strength in the future, what is the crime? I will not punish them, Che Guard, please get up." Zi Mo picked up Che Yan and continued, "I think Yuwen Hu does have other plans, I thought that sincerely letting his mother go would be able to resolve some old feuds between the two countries, but I really despised the relationship between the Turks and the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and I should have left the palace as soon as the wooden pole Khan came, but unfortunately, it was still a step too slow." ”

Che Yan frowned slightly, hugged his fists and asked: "Don't worry, although there are very few people left in the palace, but all of them are masters in a hundred, as long as the prince gives an order, Che Yan will lead these brothers to be willing to protect the prince from this Weiyang palace safely, and he will never give up!"

Che Yan is iron-clad, and he is the chief of the guard of the king of Lanling because of his outstanding military achievements in the border marching battles, he is not high, but he is loyal and courageous, most of the personal soldiers under Zi Mo are brought out by this Che Yan personally from the ranks into Yecheng, along the way in the counties of the state to help her calm down all kinds of incidents, it can be seen that the discipline is strict, and they are all good hands, Xiao Zimo feels that he has such a capable general by his side, and it is indeed a blessing, patted Che Yan on the shoulder, and said, " I heard that your exploits on the battlefield are enough to be promoted to the rank of general, but unfortunately before the door, you can only succumb to join the army, and now you are even more condescending, you can only come to me to be a guard chief, think about it, the car guard must have a complaint. On other days, if I have the opportunity, I will definitely recommend Lord Che to re-enter the army and take up a high position, lead the troops to fight, and fight with a sword, and the years will be prosperous, which is suitable for the heroism of Lord Che!"

"The prince is in love! Che Yan came from a humble background, has been with a group of brothers in the poor countryside to beg for a living, there is no meal, and then it really can't go on, the court issued a notice to recruit strong Ding to enlist in the army, I and the brothers feel that at least in the army can still have a mouthful of food, death is also a worthy death, it is considered to be a sacrifice for the country, so when the army marched to fight, did not dare to be greedy for life and fear of death, wasted the rice of the court, I did not expect, I could one day enter Ye City and become your guard of His Royal Highness Lanling, Che Yan and the brothers regard the prince as your recreated parents, how dare you have any complaints! The prince wants to drive us back to the army, don't you dislike my brothers for their bad background, and they disturb the prince's purity by fighting and making trouble on weekdays?" Che Yan said in fear.

"No, no, no, the car guards are too worried, this king doesn't mean this, but he just thinks that the car guards should have a better future. Zimo explained.

"The villain is from a poor family, and if he doesn't work as a peddler and a pawn, he is already a glorious lintel, so why should he give in. In fact, Che Yan feels fortunate to be able to serve as the guard of His Royal Highness Lanling, Lord Wang, you are the beloved son of Emperor Wenxiang, Wen Taowu is extremely talented, and has a generous and compassionate heart for his subordinates, Che Yan and his brothers are really willing to follow His Highness, sacrifice their lives and forget about death, go to the soup and fire, and dare not have a trace of complaint and disloyalty! If you violate today's oath, you will die when the five thunders hit the top!" After speaking, the Che guard slammed on the floor tiles of the palace.

Zi Mo just felt that a strong man like Che Yan would be more able to display his talents in the army, but just saying it, it made Che Yan very displeased, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and petitioned.

"Alright, all right, Che Guard, this king knows that you are loyal to me, get up, get up. If you want me to say that my family is something that I can't choose, my Daqi's military system is too rigid, and only the children of the high family are appointed to important positions in the army, and talented people like Che Guards are buried, which is really a tyrannical thing. ”

"Lord Wang, this has been divided into three, six, nine and so on since ancient times, and your words are contrary to the words of the sage. ”

The words of the saints are also limited, and we must not belittle ourselves. Zi Mo said with a smile.

。。。。。。 Che Yan has seen many people praise him for his ability, but it has never been possible for him to reach his chest with a single sentence like this Lanling prince, which makes him often feel helpless and unable to fight against reality, as if he has been relieved. Che Yan was very moved, knelt on the ground with one leg, hugged his fists and said: "Lord Wang, don't let me get up, Che's following words are really from the bottom of his heart, and he doesn't vomit or feel unhappy." Che Yan has always been arrogant, has never really served anyone, if not born, Che Yan also feels that he is a king to worship the prime minister, but today, I kneel but really want to kneel His Royal Highness you, the sage has words, the soldier is a confidant who dies, I Che Yan does not read much, is to get ahead in the army to read the sage book for a few years, the truth does not understand much, but this word of loyalty I remember the most profound, there is the prince you today this sentence, in the future is the emperor to make me a general to do I don't want to, prince, I swear to follow youXie Wang Ye corrected Che's name today!"

The car guard is a hot-blooded man, who is in love, with tears in his eyes, and kowtows to his son. Xiao Zimo sighed, she knew that this strict Northern Dynasty had humiliated many talented people, and it was so sad that she didn't meet her talents!

"Che guard, the two of us will be regarded as our own brothers in the future, and we don't need to see each other in the future. With the ability of Lord Che, there will definitely be a day when Pengcheng's long-cherished wish will be fulfilled! So don't talk lightly, sacrifice your life and forget death, I Gao Changgong don't want to die in this Weiyang Palace, and I don't want my brothers to fill in my life. I want to come to the car guard and know that I joined the army to guard the border fortress, and I don't have other skills, but I still have the ability to protect myself. So, when it comes to the emergency, the car guard and the brothers can take care of themselves, I don't have a wine bag and a rice bag to the point where I want someone to block the sword for me, you know?" Zi Mo sat on the round stool, drank tea, helped the car guard, and said.

"But。。。。。。 Lord Wang, you are a daughter。。。。。。 We and the guards are going to protect the prince with their lives, and the prince is looking down on our ability to say this. ”

"If I, Gao Changgong, sacrificed a few of you and escaped alone, I would feel disgraced! First, it shows that my Lanling King has no way to lead, and he fled in a hurry at the cost of his men's lives, and secondly, you also said that you will follow me to the death in the future, so you will die easily, so who will I find to be so loyal to me in the future? Zimo quipped.

"Yes! subordinates obey orders!" Che Yan replied respectfully, thought for a moment and then said, "The prince just doesn't want to break out by force?"

"Naturally, a few of us only have a few lives, how many guards are there in this Weiyang Palace? The matter has come to this point, it is better to explore the terrain passage of this palace before making a plan. The guards of the Northern Zhou Dynasty seem to be similar to my Daqi, if the guards refuse to reveal their tone, then there are a lot of maids in this Yongyan Palace, it is really not good, the car guards will sell and laugh, shout a few good sisters, and take some things that women like to please them, in this Yongyan Palace, which has no way into the earth and no door to the sky, it is also good to flirt with the empathetic palace maids to pass the time. ”

Cough...... Che Yan understood what Zimo meant, but his face was still embarrassed, there was no way, he would definitely do what the prince commanded, although he really didn't understand this, but he understood a little after listening to it. Look at the face of his own prince who is leisurely drinking tea upside down all beings, and feel that the master is the master, and he looks at the pure heart and few desires on weekdays, but he is a master who has passed a leaf in the thousands of flowers, so he looked at Zimo's eyes with even more admiration.

Two days later, the layout and location of the fourteen halls of Weiyang Palace were all clear, including the entrances to the various halls and the several palace gates going to the outside of the palace.

Zi Mo was pointing to several weak guards on the map, making arrangements as key points that might break out, when there was a sudden sound of argument outside the door.

"Lord Sikong, Lord Tsukasa has a life, and no one is allowed to enter to disturb His Highness Lanling. ”

"You open it for me, don't you have long eyes? Don't look at what I have in my hand, you block the place where Lord Ben goes!"

"The villain should be damned, the villain doesn't know that Lord Sikong has the token of Lord Tsukazai to dare to block it, Lord Sikong, please!"

The door of the hall opened, and Yuwen Yong entered and saw that Zi Mo had not seen him for a long time, safe and sound, and finally his hanging heart fell, revealing a smile.
