310. Chapter 310: Thirteen in time
Darch was shocked to see a smile on Nineteen's face. Because she saw the familiar markings under the high platform. It was left to her by Thirteen, which meant that he was nearby and she could do anything without scruples. She put away the assassination dagger, snatched the scimitar from the person next to her, and pounced on Darch again. All the way to the gallop, she didn't even have time to breathe. The longer it drags on, the worse it will be for her. Luckily, Thirteen arrived just in time. So she no longer cared about the retention of the body, and the knife technique was wide open and closed, pressing step by step.
Darch didn't answer, quickly dodged back and avoided it, shouting, "Take her"
Nineteen eyes of wind swept around, and the broadsword did not hesitate to take off his hand and flung it towards Darch. One of his own soldiers stepped forward and raised his hand to deflect the knife. Nineteen followed and rubbed himself up, bypassing his own soldiers and rushing in front of Dalch. Darch stepped back, amazed at her agility. Nineteen did not pursue this time, and retreated in the direction of the cliff of the high platform.
Darch didn't dare to be careless, keeping a close eye on her movements, keeping his distance from her to prevent her from suddenly pounced again.
Nineteen had retreated to the edge of the high platform. There were several archers there, but because Nineteen's movements were too flexible to aim and it was easy to injure his own people, he didn't make a move. They weren't good at melee combat, and were now retreating to the side. Unexpectedly, Nineteen suddenly attacked them, grabbed the bow and arrow of the person closest to her with his left hand, and grasped the dagger hidden in his sleeve with his right hand, and slashed at the man's wrist, forcing him to quickly let go.
Starting with a bow and arrow, Nineteen no longer fell in love with the battle, and jumped down from the edge of the high platform. The cliff is several people high, and if you can control the posture of falling, you will not fall to your death. Under the cliff is the sand city. Everyone thought she had given up and was going to jump off a cliff to escape.
Unexpectedly, in mid-air, Nineteen calmly twisted his body, facing the high platform with his back to the cliff, bent his bow and arrows, aimed at the loose strings, and several actions were completed in one go.
Under the cliff, a figure had been waiting for a long time, and it was the thirteenth who came in a hurry. Seeing this, he quickly approached, jumped up, stretched out his hand, and the timing was just right, enough to catch the unsuspecting falling Nineteen.
He firmly protected Nineteen in his arms with both hands, followed the force of the landing, rolled out a few steps away from the force, there was a fishy sweet breath in his throat, he forcibly pressed down, and then stood up, smiling at Nineteen with a relaxed expression: "I received you." β
He has a pair of bright big eyes, clear facial features, and a resolute countenance, with a little unapproachable coldness. Looking at the person in his arms, that bit of coldness suddenly melted away, and turned into a gentleness that even he didn't notice.
Nineteen tilted his head: "You're hurt." She used affirmatives, not questions.
"Hmm." She was too perceptive, Thirteen didn't intend to hide it from her, and simply said a few words, "It's okay." β
Nineteen then put his heart down, lay directly in Thirteen's arms and fell asleep. She was so tired. Thirteen hugged her and quickly returned to the garrison of the soldiers of Shacheng, and then disappeared from the eyes of the Hu people.
The Hu people on the high platform were dumbfounded. When they came back to their senses, they found that the deputy commander had already lost his breath. The arrow that Nineteen shot when he fell off the cliff was stuck in his throat.
Since then, whether it is the rivers and lakes or the imperial court, everyone knows that in the idle pavilion specializing in assassination, there is a beautiful genius girl named Nineteen.
The first time she went on a solo mission, she became famous all over the world.
The Hu people lost their commander, had no one to command the army, and returned defeated. Darhan's original generals in the army were punished lightly or severely because of their poor guards. In a short period of time, a suitable commander could not be found, and the plan to embezzle Qiguo had to be put on hold.
After the border war was stabilized, Qiguo had not yet had time to be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and the rumors of the retreat of the Marquis of Dingguo, Lan Lietian, became a request for resignation of the Holy Book case.
Lan Lietian is the younger brother of the current saint is a fellow mother, the saint relied on him a lot in his early years, and now he personally visited the Dingguo Mansion to persuade him to continue to assist the government, but the Marquis of Dingguo had made up his mind, so he had to give in and allow Lan Lietian to hand over all the political affairs in his hands to others, but he must stay in the capital and wait.
Other war-related personnel, such as Wang Shihui, each have their own rewards. Among them, the most eye-catching is Ji Huaiyong, the captain of the frontier school, who has been promoted from the ninth rank to the fifth grade and served as the doctor of the central guard, becoming a hot figure. He is only 23 years old this year, and he will have a bright future ahead of him.
Ignoring the turmoil in the imperial court, after the world-famous assassination, under the care of Thirteen, Nineteen slept for two whole days. She even pretended to faint and sleep in the camp, did not dare to relax her nerves for a moment, and did not rest for several days. Thirteen was wounded and kept her awake for two days.
Cheng Ming didn't expect them to come back alive. Because he was the target of the mission, after Thirteen arrived in Shacheng, the first one asked him to inquire about Nineteen's news. When they met again, he got to know the two better, and his impression changed greatly.
He asked Thirteen curiously: "Why do you want to serve the idle pavilion With your good skills, whether it is to go through the rivers and lakes, or to seek a marquis from the imperial court, you will definitely have a great achievement." β
Thirteen's expression was flat: "We grew up in the idle pavilion. The implication is that there is no other choice.
Cheng Ming didn't ask too much in interest, and the topic turned to the nineteen he was concerned about: "She is your person so dedicated, the girl is really blessed." β
Thirteen was silent for a moment before he said, "The people of the idle pavilion are forbidden to talk about love. We are the only regular partners. "Not only the relationship between men and women, but also the affection of family, friendship, and sympathy are forbidden in the idle pavilion.
Cheng Ming was stunned.
He has long passed the age of not being confused, and he no longer has the mind of having children. However, thirteen and nineteen are still small, and such regulations are too strict. He is a person who re-promises, even if he is resistant, but he has promised to join the idle pavilion, and he has no intention of going back.
Cheng Ming thought for a long time and said cautiously: "Thirteen, I haven't officially joined the idle pavilion yet, while I am still free, I can't help but want to remind you: The idle pavilion is not a place for you to stay." Especially nineteen. Rigidity is very easy to break, you have to plan ahead. β
Thirteen didn't have a surprised look, he had already thought of this question: "I understand, it's just that the risk is too great, I don't want her to take risks." The pavilion master values her very much, and he will not wronged her in a short time. β
"Jinju Yang Zhongxian is an upright person and trustworthy." Cheng Ming built it vaguely.
Thirteen knew what Cheng Ming meant, which was to guide him to freedom. He didn't refuse, nor did he accept it immediately, but just thanked him solemnly: "I'll meet him when I find time." β
Cheng Ming sighed, said no more, and went out to say goodbye to Ji Huaiyong.
When Nineteen woke up, he was already on his way back to the Leisure Pavilion. Seeing Thirteen's haggard face, she asked in hindsight, "Have you not rested for a long time?"
Thirteen patted her head and scolded softly: "Next time, don't mess around like this, run out alone." When he completed the task and found that the person who answered was not nineteen, and heard that she ran to Shacheng alone, his soul was about to fly away, and he didn't care about the injuries on his body, so he immediately rushed there non-stop. Fortunately, there was no danger, and she finally didn't hurt herself.
Nineteen nodded in agreement: "Okay." Go and rest. β
"Let's go back and get back to my life."
When he returned to his life, Nineteen was not blamed, because the task was completed beautifully, and Cheng Ming was quickly invited back; was not appreciated either, because she made too much noise, pushing Xian Ge directly from behind to people's eyes, and attracting many eyes. It's a combination of merits and demerits. Then the pavilion master motioned for Thirteen to step aside, leaving Nineteen alone.
Thirteen raised his head and looked at the Pavilion Lord with a meaningful look. His heart trembled, and he suddenly understood that something was going to happen, and his face suddenly turned white. He whispered to Nineteen, "You are still young, ask the Pavilion Master, can you learn the things of those men later" Nineteen obediently agreed.
Thirteen waited anxiously outside the door, his mind turning a thousand times. He knew that there would be such a day, but he never thought it would come so quickly.
Nineteen came out quickly, his face was as usual, and his clothes were neat, as if something had happened. Thirteen asked uneasily: "What did the pavilion master say?"
"The pavilion master said that he had learned everything he should have learned anyway, and then let me come out."
Those who should have learned have learned thirteen eyes and almost fell down: "When is it?"
Nineteen subconsciously tilted his head, not understanding Thirteen's reaction: "A few days ago, you were on a mission, and I slept with the pavilion master. Thirteen, you have a very bad face. β
Thirteen held her hand and smiled reluctantly, "I'm fine." "It turned out that he was deliberately turned away. Nineteen is a genius in fighting, but he doesn't know anything else. She didn't understand what these things meant, but he did.
In the idle pavilion, the pavilion master is the supreme being, and he cannot resist. Here they do not belong to themselves.
Someday, I'll take you out of here. Thirteen looked at Nineteen's side face and swore secretly in his heart.
As a rule, a period of rest is allowed after successfully completing the task. After returning to his life, Thirteen rested for two days to soothe his tired nerves, and then asked the cabinet for instructions, and took Nineteen into Beijing.
Cheng Ming changed his name to join the idle pavilion according to his promise, and became the advisor of the pavilion master, known as Mr. He. Yang Zhongxian of Jinzhou, whom he mentioned, is participating in the imperial examination in the capital. On the day the list was released, thirteen led nineteen, pretending to be an ordinary scholar, and crowded into the crowd watching the list.
Yang Zhongxian's name is at the top of the list, and he is the champion of the new department.
looked behind in turn, and found another name in the second class of Jinshi: Su Lihe.
He did participate in the imperial examination.
Thirteen thought about it, and instead of visiting Yang Zhongxian directly, he took Nineteen to hang out in the market. Nineteen looked at the crowd and didn't understand what was fun. She knew Thirteen had something to do, so she followed him quietly. Thirteen took her hand and sighed inwardly when he saw her docile and a little confused.
In the evening, they sat down to eat in an ordinary restaurant. The restaurant is located in the downtown area, which is when there are many people. When a young man in his twenties came in, there was no place for him. He was well-looking, more handsome than thirteen, and wore an ordinary robe, which was a common style among scholars, and attracted no attention at all. He looked around and came to the tables of thirteen and nineteen: "Bother, make a table." "He also has a nice voice with an appealing magnetism.
Nineteen glanced at him and ignored him. Thirteen nodded, in agreement. The young man sat down across from Nineteen.
Su Lihe, a native of Yangzhou, lost his mother at an early age, and there is only one little sister in the family. The Su family is a businessman, and Su Lihe is the only male in the family, and last year he suddenly announced that he would participate in the imperial examination and handed over the shop to his younger sister Su Wan to take care of. This time when he entered Beijing to take the exam, he did not bring his entourage, and stood in the crowd without being conspicuous, not at all like a person who had just entered the Jinshi.
Nineteen was dressed in men's clothes, and her hair was combed in a bun by Thirteen, tied up with a wooden hairpin. There are shallow carvings on the wooden hairpin, carved into the appearance of green bamboo, ten chic. Su Lihe couldn't help but look at it twice. Thirteen grimaced and coughed lightly. Su Lihe came back to his senses, smiled, and hugged his fist at him: "This little brother is handsome, and he is really likable, so I can't help but look at it twice." I'm sorry for the abruptness. β
Thirteen ignored him and asked Nineteen: "The champion will patrol the streets tomorrow, do you want to go and see it?"
Nineteen shook his head: "I don't like it." Lots of people. β
Thirteen thought about it and asked: "It's the season for the azaleas to bloom, go and see the flowers"
Nineteen was a little incomprehensible: "The flowers are so beautiful that I will thank you in a few days." β
Thirteen had guessed that she would say this, but when she heard her say it, she still couldn't help but feel sad. In the cognition of the nineteenth, colors, smells, and sounds can only be regarded as the characteristics of someone or something, and there is nothing special.
She doesn't know how to live.
It is difficult for people who do not know how to live to understand what happiness is.
She can't understand the seven emotions and six desires of people. Although she is very smart and can always put on the most appropriate expression at the right time during the mission, her heart is empty and has nothing to do with joy, anger and sorrow. Thirteen tried to teach her seriously, but in vain.
He got up and naturally took Nineteen: "Go back." After a day of walking today, you are also tired. β
So Su Lihe monopolized the entire table. In the aftermath of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a figure following Thirteen and Nineteen out. A playful smile tugged at his lips: Sure enough, as he said, someone was watching in the shadows. is the one who wears a green bamboo hairpin, Su Li and countless readers, even if she is wearing men's clothes, she still recognizes at a glance that she is actually a girl.
Interesting, the green bamboo hairpin turned out to be on her. Now he is a very beautiful person, and when he grows up, he must be the best in the country. When the little sister found out, she would probably cry for so many years, but she has always remembered the thirteen.
The Su family is in the silk business. Three years ago, the old father of the Su family was deceived in his business and wanted to lose a lot of money, and he couldn't afford to get sick under the blow, so the competitor took the opportunity to defraud and forced the old father to sell the only silk store under his name. That is the hard work of the old father of the Su family all his life, how to give it up
In a desperate situation, Su Lihe met Thirteen.
At that time, as soon as Thirteen obtained elite status, he began to prepare for escape. He observed many people, and finally chose the Su family and proposed a deal to Su Lihe. After Su Lihe went home to discuss with his little sister, he sold the green bamboo hairpin to Thirteen at a high price, and used the money to pay off the debt, and then seized the business opportunity to reverse the loss of the shop, and the Su family revitalized the faΓ§ade. The green bamboo hairpin is not a rare thing. The little sister of the Su family was born with a pair of skillful hands, and this hairpin was carved by her temporarily. What the thirteenth spent money to buy was not this hairpin, but a promise from the Su family: when they see the holder of the green bamboo hairpin in the future, the Su family will do their best to protect each other regardless of the reason. Su Lihe didn't expect to see the green bamboo hairpin today
