26. Chapter 26
Yu Shi and Xi Hu respectively led a team of people to look for Li Shao's traces inside and outside Chang'an City, but this blizzard was so heavy and urgent that they couldn't even leave the footprints they had just stepped on, and how could they find traces of a few hours ago.
It was getting dark, and the snow was getting lighter and lighter, but no one found Li Shao.
The eldest grandson Boyi sat quietly on Li Shao's bed, his mind was blank, obviously this was the time to think about some things seriously, but the eldest grandson Boyi couldn't think of anything.
In the hall of Admiral Tiance's mansion, Yu Shi and Xi Hu, who had made an appointment to come back every hour to meet, sat with solemn faces.
"He probably followed Li Zheng away." Thinking that the eldest grandson Boyi had been deceived for a few months, Xi Hu felt angry.
"Don't talk nonsense," Yu Shi glared at Xi Hu with a rare solemn look, "That person is going to leave a long time ago, why do you have to pick such a ghost weather?" ”
"Leaving early?" Xi Hu sneered, "He is the only one in the Li clan who has the opportunity to get close to the general, and he is the most suitable person to do internal response." ”
Yu Shi rolled his eyes: "Still guilty?" So who did he answer? Have you ever seen a person who was picked up before he could do anything? ”
Xi Hu turned his head and looked at Yu Shi suspiciously: "Why do you always help him talk?" ”
"I didn't," Yu Shi said with a glare, "I'm just talking about things!" ”
Xi Hu sneered: "Can you still talk about things with your brain?" ”
As soon as he heard this, Yu Shiteng stood up: "Bastard, do you want to fight?" ”
The two were making trouble, and they saw that the doorman of the Tiance General's Mansion led a soldier to the hall, and the soldier gave a military salute as soon as he saw Yu Shi and Xi Hu.
"Vice General Yu, Vice General Xi, is General Changsun here?"
Yu Shi and Xi Hu looked at each other, and then asked the soldier: "Yes, do you have something?" ”
"General Tao asked the humble post to tell General Changsun that the Li fugitive has been captured and is now being held in the prison."
Hearing the word "Li fugitive", Yu Shi and Xi Hu couldn't immediately react to who this meant, but when they reacted, the two of them were suddenly shocked.
"I'll go tell the general!" Yu Shi turned around and rushed to the east wing of the main courtyard.
It's strange, General Tao is in charge of the palace guards for the time being, where did he find that person? Could it be that person entered the palace?
"General!" As if he hadn't noticed the strange silence in the east wing, Yu Shi shouted as soon as he entered the door, "General, that Li Shao was caught by General Tao, and he will be imprisoned in heaven now!" ”
The eldest grandson Boyi was shocked, turned his head and glared at Yu Shi in disbelief: "Where do you say the others are?" ”
"In the dungeon!"
The eldest grandson Boyi immediately rushed out of the door.
Yu Shi hurriedly followed, and when he ran through the hall, he also asked Xi Hu to look after the house, so angry that Xi Hu stared.
went all the way into the prison, and the eldest grandson Boyi soon saw Li Shao.
At this time, Li Shao was sitting cross-legged in the dim cell, his eyes closed, as if he was meditating, Li Shao's body was still the same outfit he wore early in the morning, but the cloak and half of the trouser legs were wet, as if they were soaked in snow.
The footsteps of the eldest grandson Boyi running wildly in the corridor of the prison were very loud, Li Shao could hear and guess that the footsteps belonged to the eldest grandson Boyi, but Li Shao never opened his eyes, even if the eldest grandson Boyi was already standing in front of the cell, Li Shao still closed his eyes and didn't notice anything.
"Li Shao, where have you been?" Outside the cell, the eldest grandson Boyi was panting like a cow.
Li Shao did not answer.
"Li Shao? Li Shao, what's wrong with you? Didn't hear Li Shao's answer, the eldest grandson Boyi was a little flustered.
Li Shao shouldn't be in a coma, right?
"He's fine," Tao Wujing walked from the side and stood beside the eldest grandson Boyi, "It's just that from the time we caught him until now, he hasn't said a word, and after entering the cell, it's like he has been settled, and I've never seen bones so hard." ”
He knew that the eldest grandson would definitely come after receiving the news, so he came to take a look.
The eldest grandson Boyi stared intently at the pale-faced Li Shao and asked Tao Wujing, "Where did you find him?" ”
"Behind the palace, in the woods outside the city. Towards noon, when he came out of the woods, he was seen by his brothers on the wall of the palace, and two men were following him, but they seemed to have fled at his command, and his legs and feet were not very sharp, and he could not escape. ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Boyi turned his head to look at Tao Wujing, and said coldly: "You caught him at noon, and now it's dark before you send someone to inform me?" ”
Tao Wujing scratched his head and said with some embarrassment: "It took a lot of time to interrogate him, and he forgot to tell you for a while. ”
"Interrogation?" Eldest Sun Boyi's heart twitched, and the pain was terrible, "Did you torture him?" ”
Hearing this, and looking at the expression of the eldest grandson Boyi, Tao Wujing suddenly turned cold: "Eldest grandson, do you remember who he is?" ”
The eldest grandson Boyi also sank his face and asked in a cold voice, "What does the fifth uncle mean by asking?" ”
Tao Wujing looked at Li Shao in the cell, and said in a deep voice: "Eldest grandson, he is the third prince of the Li clan, and he is one of the people you and I swore to kill, I don't care who you were, and no matter what kind of person he is, he has to die, just like other Li clansmen who died under my knife, he was born in the Li clan, this is the biggest sin he has committed in this life." ”
The eldest grandson Boyi couldn't refute Tao Wujing's words, because he had also thought so in the past ten years, but the person in front of him was special, so special that he could shake his oath that he had adhered to for ten years with gentleness in just a few months, he couldn't kill Li Shao, whether he believed Li Shao from the bottom of his heart or not, he couldn't kill Li Shao.
“…… Open the door and let me in and have a few words with him. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Tao Wujing still refused: "If you have anything, you can tell him like this, he has already escaped from you once, and I don't want a second time." ”
After saying this, Tao Wujing turned around and walked away, and by the way, he took away the jailer who had followed the eldest grandson Boyi before.
The eldest grandson Boyi looked at Tao Wujing's back indignantly, but he couldn't say anything.
When he first entered Chang'an, he handed over the guards of the palace to Tao Wujing and another general, so there were almost no people in the palace, and even those who were guarding the prison were replaced by Tao Wujing's people.
Tao Wujing and several other generals originally came to him with their own armies to work with him, and they recognized him as the commander, but he, the commander, could only command the three armies in wartime, and once they left the battlefield, all the generals would give priority to the orders of their respective generals, even if he was the commander in wartime, they could not let them disobey the orders of their generals.
"Li Shao," When Tao Wujing walked away without a shadow, the eldest grandson Boyi looked at Li Shao with an anxious face, "Li Shao, since you are awake, say something!" ”
Hearing the anxious voice of Changsun Boyi, Li Shao was a little distressed, hesitated for a while, but slowly opened his eyes: "What does General Changsun want me to say?" ”
The first time he was called "General Changsun" by Li Shao, Changsun Boyi's heart chuckled, and he immediately had a bad premonition.
"Y-Why are you in the woods behind the palace?"
Li Shao lowered his eyes again: "Naturally, Li Zheng sent someone to pick me up." ”
The eldest grandson Boyi eagerly asked, "Why did he send someone to pick you up?" What did he tell you? Where is he? ”
Li Shao replied indifferently: "He didn't say anything, he just asked me to go and chat a few words, I would have gone to a safe place by this time." ”
"Li Shao!" The eldest grandson Boyi slammed his fist on the railing of the cell door, "Don't perfunctory me, look into my eyes and answer me!" ”
Putting away the distress in his eyes, Li Shao raised his eyes to look at the eldest grandson Boyi, and smiled lightly: "In the past nearly thirty years, have I ever lied to you?" What I say to you is not false at any time, even at this moment. Do you believe me? ”
