Chapter 38: The Man on the Black Umbrella
Li Xuanxin fell down again after killing Fang Shouxin, this battle was too seriously injured after all, although the elixir of the short old man was extraordinary, it could not make people recover from their injuries in an instant.
By the time he woke up from the pain, it was the second day, and he couldn't see the wounds all over his body, but the tender flesh growing in his body all the time was too uncomfortable after all.
A horse-drawn carriage walked on a neat bluestone road, gradually moving away from a steep majestic city behind it. On the official road just after the rain, after a short period of refreshment, there was another round of scorching heat.
In the sound of the wheels, when the Xiongcheng behind him became a small dot, a gray shadow appeared again at the end of the line of sight in front of him.
Li Xuanxin leaned on the wheel, squinting and trying to see the gloom clearly, but even if he pulled the corners of his eyes painfully, he only saw a larger shadow in his pupils.
This left him silently guessing in his heart with an almost certain answer - that is Luodu, right?
For some reason, Li Xuanxin was obviously the first time to Luodu, but there was a feeling of homesickness in his heart!
The gray shadow became bigger and bigger in his eyes, and gradually became a winding and majestic mountain range at the end of his sight, and the complexity in Li Xuanxin's heart gradually became richer.
It was only after he took his eyes off the shadows and turned to look inside the carriage that the complexity in his eyes turned to a slight anger and confusion.
Shen Wan is gone!
This was not only expected by Li Xuanxin, but also exceeded his expectations. From leaving Mu Ping to meeting Bo Yi, Shen Wan's abnormality had long let him know that there would be such a day, but when this moment came, a panic and even anxiety inevitably rose in his heart.
And among these many complex emotions, there is a trace of inexplicable anger. I don't know if I was angry at Shen Wan's non-resignation, or angry at that I was still weak.
This emotion was clearly felt by the other two people sitting in the car, so the road was extremely silent except for the squeak of the carriage. However, at this moment, Bai Yi finally opened his mouth to break this atmosphere, "The paperwork in your arms is useless, Privy Council, you can't get in!" ”
Li Xuanxin was silent for a moment and said, "There is no room for relaxation? ”
"Nope! The Privy Council and Dali Temple are the two swords of Emperor Shenwu, and they are the face of Emperor Shenwu, although Fang Shouxin is not the highest kind of big man in the Privy Council, but even if it is a beard on his face, it will hurt if he is pulled out. ”
"Ordinary people will endure it if they are hurt, but if the emperor is in pain, it is difficult to say. Besides, after all, I have to give His Majesty Weijiayu a step down. ”
Bo Yi said Kankan, constantly patting his hand on the short old man on the other side who seemed to be asleep.
"There's no other way?" Li Xuanxin said.
"Naturally, there is a way, entering the Privy Council is to become a privy envoy, and only by sitting in the position of a privy envoy can you decide the affairs of the whole Han army, but becoming a privy envoy is not the only way to join the Privy Council."
Bo Yi paused slightly, took off the shoes on his feet a little helplessly, and in Li Xuan's puzzled gaze, he stuffed the shoes that exuded a strong smell towards the tip of the short old man's nose.
When the shoes were about to be buckled on the old man's face, the short old man suddenly got up quickly to avoid it, and Bo Yi put the shoes back on in a burst of laughter, pointed at the old man and said: "This is the Black Umbrella Master, the Elder of the Heavenly Master Dao, his cultivation is very high, it is the kind of height that is difficult to understand. More importantly, he has the ability to take you from another path to the position of privy counsellor. ”
Li Xuanxin jumped out of the carriage with a solemn face, parked the carriage next to the official road, and saluted respectfully to the old man in the carriage in the surprised eyes of the pedestrians who kept coming and going on the official road.
"The life-saving grace and wish of the seniors, Li Xuanxin wrote down, no matter what the reason, Li Xuanxin was grateful. No matter what the promise is, it seems too pale for a master like my predecessors, but General Yu Mingchun has taught me since I was a child that there are some things that must be written down with my life. ”
After Li Xuanxin finished speaking, he bowed again, and then jumped into the carriage.
An old man sighed in the quiet carriage, "Yu Mingchun is the most talented person I have ever seen, judging from the final battle report, he has obviously cultivated to the third realm, but he is too upright, if not...... Alas, forget it. ”
"I will introduce him to my senior brother, as for the future, I don't care, what he can do in the end, whether he is dead or alive, it all depends on his ability."
The man under the black umbrella sighed again, said a word to Boyi, and then closed his eyes.
There was a hint of irrepressible smile in Bo Yi's eyes, and he said to Li Xuanxin with his chin bowed: "The privy envoy is held every ten years, which is the same as the general of the garrison commanders in various places. ”
"And among those complicated conditions, the most important thing is that it must be from the six factions of the Great Han Dynasty, and it must be jointly recommended by the sect master or the five elders. Only in this way can the loyalty of the privy envoys be guaranteed, since each of them has their own sect implicated behind them. ”
"And the Black Umbrella Master is the junior disciple of the contemporary sect master of the Heavenly Master Dao, with his recommendation, at least you will have no problem entering the Heavenly Master Dao."
Li Xuanxin looked at the smile on Bo Yi's face and nodded, he didn't say thank you, although he knew that Bo Yi might have paid a considerable price for doing all this.
The carriage moved forward on the wide official road, stopped in front of a huge military village, and a young man with an elegant temperament waited quietly on the side of the road in the military village, and walked over with a smile after seeing the carriage where Li Xuanxin was.
The elegant young man was dressed in clean white, and his whole body exuded a meticulous temperament, and even the smiling expression at the moment gave people a mechanical sense that was not disgusting.
He smiled and nodded to Li Xuanxin, who was sitting in front of the car, and then bent down to the carriage and said: "Lord Boyi, the court meeting has begun, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the ministers have been waiting in the Daming Palace for a night, and His Majesty also came out of the retreat early this morning. ”
The elegant young man did not urge, but the words he said made people involuntarily feel a sense of anxiety and urgency. Even Li Xuanxin felt that it seemed that Bo Yi did not hurry up to attend the court meeting, which was an extremely inappropriate feeling.
There was not a single movement in the carriage, not even the intermittent snoring on the black umbrella before, which was no longer heard at this moment.
The carriage did not move, and the elegant young man kept bending over beside the carriage, and after a while, beads of sweat began to drip down his head, not tired, but fearful!
He seemed to think of something extremely unacceptable, and his body began to tremble gradually, and after a while, a puddle of water appeared under his feet.
His legs trembled more and more violently, and just as he felt his whole body go weak and was about to kneel, a burly man in a dark shirt appeared in front of him and helped him up with a smile.
With a smile on his dark face, Bo Yi said meaningfully: "You say, I have to wait here for two more hours, or simply not go today, can the person behind you keep you?" ”
"If you can be stupid to test my attitude, it's definitely not those top adults, it's just some clowns." Bo Yi shook his head, making no secret of the mockery in his eyes.
"Well, if you go and do something for me, I won't embarrass you. I think that you also know all my classmates more than ten years ago, and you will help me give them a sentence one by one today. Well, just say, 'Soon Boyi will come to visit them and let them all sweep their beds, and if there is anyone who doesn't know who Boyi is, you can tell them that they are Dongboyi.' ”
After Bo Yi finished speaking, he nodded to Li Xuanxin, and then suddenly disappeared under the wrapping of a black shadow.
Li Xuanxin jumped out of the carriage, handed the reins to the elegant young man who was still standing in place and was silent, and said: "Borrow you a carriage, maybe you can be faster, Luodu stretches for three hundred miles, if you can't finish it in one day, it will be troublesome." However, it must also be remembered that three percent of the profit, the profit rolling, by the day. ”
The elegant young man took the reins with an ugly face, smiled at Li Xuanxin with a difficult smile, turned around and drove the carriage away.
Luodu forbids horses, and carriages are forbidden!
Li Xuanxin breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the tall city wall that could already see the blue bricks and green tiles under the shadow, looked at the swaggering flags on the city wall, and walked forward at a faster speed.
