Chapter 202: A Vignette
The companion looked at him and said in a cold tone: "What didn't happen, there is no point in your blind guessing!" ”
The guard couldn't help but be angry, and turned his head to stare at his companion for a moment speechless. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Why does this guy always choke on himself, but he can't even say a word of rebuttal, he's really depressed!
"If we really find the little junior sister, when we go back to the inn in the evening, we will definitely know the news."
The companion paused and continued: "The Lord has spent so many twists and turns! ”
He glanced into the distance, and then said in a decisive tone: "When I find the little junior sister this time, the lord ...... I won't let her out of sight easily! ”
...... When he approached the alley, his companion lowered his voice and said, "The Lord is there, you have also read the letter." ”
"But there is something wrong with the Northland!"
The companion and the guard walked through the alley and along the town path.
There were a lot of pedestrians on the street, and they had already learned it when they arrived yesterday, but it was still better than the flow of people at the entrance of the town.
For the sake of convenience, they plan to take a convenient path to the inn where they are staying, which can save some time along the way.
The two walked again, and the guard stopped halfway.
He turned his head to look at his companion and asked, "You were talking about the empress's side, she doesn't go to the valley to station?" ”
He thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter was not as wrong as his companion said, and in his opinion, it was just a small matter.
The guard's tone was full of indifference: "I think, it must be that it's too simple over there, and the empress dislikes it and it's inconvenient!" ”
From herself to others, the heart of the guardian is about before the start of the war, the empress plans to rest in the town, and then go to the vicinity of the battlefield!
The guards felt that their assumptions were reasonable.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, his companion shook his head and said, "No, it must not be this reason." ”
The guard glanced over at the guy beside him, silent.
While talking, the two of them walked into a small alley, a narrow alley that was quiet and uninhabited.
Only then did the companion continue the topic just now: "They are going to fight, not to enjoy happiness, they have already arrived in the Northland, how can the empress still account for this?" ”
The guard looked at his companion and looked at him thoughtfully.
"That's it...... That's for the sake of the national teacher! ”
"Who else, the empress cares so much about him!"
The guards don't think twice.
The companion was silent and did not answer, leaning less, and then nodded and said, "What you said also has some truth. ”
"Makes sense, okay? Doesn't the empress care very much about the national teacher, she has always followed the army of the king and always cared for her along the way. ”
When the guard spoke, there was even a bit of ambiguity in his tone, and his companion immediately heard it, and turned his head to look at him coldly.
"It is all right for you to say such things in my presence," said his companion, as soon as his tone changed, "but when our Lord is here, you should not mention a word, lest you bring trouble upon yourself." ”
Hearing this, the guard glared at him, looked down and thought about it, but still couldn't say anything to refute it.
...... The two of them gradually approached the street where the inn was located, and when they passed through the alley again, they saw a flash of figure at the mouth of the alley.
The man walked quickly, and at first glance, he was a tall man, giving the first impression...... Like a guard of some house.
As Tianfang's subordinates, they naturally followed the pace of their own masters, and they were paying attention to the people of the Yuwen family from Suzhou in the past few days, and those guards were the focus of their observation.
In addition, the eyes of his companion were even sharper, and when he saw the figure walking past, he wanted to see it clearly, and without saying a word, he quickly walked in the direction of the mouth of the alley.
Footsteps stopped on the street at the mouth of the alley, and the companion frowned and waited to see the figure clearly, it was not a person from the Yuwen family they were familiar with, but a strange back.
"That person also looks like a guard of a big family," the guard who caught up behind looked at his companion and said, "These people seem to have a label on their bodies, and we have seen them more than once when we walk around the east of Suzhou City." ”
At that time, Tianfang sent his subordinates to operate in Suzhou City, and compared to a few companions, they actually didn't move around much.
Even so, there is the experience of coming out of the house and walking on the streets of Suzhou City.
That area is a little different from the west of the city.
The east of Suzhou is a place where large families gather, and on that street, the most you can see when you go out are horse-drawn carriages, and there are some people walking around the street.
Those people came out of the courtyard of the deep mansion to walk around, went out to run errands or took on the duties of guards.
The previous person is the temperament of a guard who makes a distinct impression.
It is similar to the temperament of the guards seen in Suzhou City.
"It's not strange, the inn we live in is the best in town, and it is inevitable that there will be a son-in-law and brother of a family who will stay, and it is normal to walk around with guards."
The guard thought for a moment.
He looked at his companion who looked down and thought about not answering, silently thinking, and couldn't help but continue to him: "Anyway, it's none of our business. ”
The guard paused, and then said, "If it's really the little junior sister of the lord who suddenly arrived at the inn, maybe the people we left over there will know, no, they must know before us, maybe they all go to confirm the information!" ”
His companion glanced at him and answered, "Go to the inn and ask them." ”
The guard smiled: "They didn't think that we would go back halfway, they all thought that we might not be able to return to the inn until the evening with the master!" ”
It is rare for the Lord to return after a short stop, and usually go out early and return late when he goes out to run errands.
...... The two of them crossed the street and quickly entered the inn's gate.
The door was quite lively, except for the newly checked guests who were taken to the inn by the inn guy, and they also saw that the innkeeper who had arranged their accommodation that day was talking to a handsome little girl.
The guard's eyes were immediately drawn to the man.
Looking at that little girl's good looks, the dress on her body is ...... Which maid should it be?
The guard secretly said in his heart that he first saw the guard, and then saw the maid, and it seemed that there were really a lot of rich people living in the town inn.
The guard glanced at his companion and overheard a few conversations as he walked over.
The little maid whispered to the man, "Our young lady plans to hire a few people, there are some things to do in the town, you must know where they are, right?" ”
Hearing the little maid's question, the young man at the inn seemed a little embarrassed.
He glanced at a few companions beside him, then looked at the little maid and said, "I don't know what kind of person your young lady plans to hire?" ”
This time, the little maid replied very happily: "You go with me, our young lady is upstairs, she will make it clear to you in person." ”
"I don't know what she wants to tell you face-to-face!"
...... The guards walked some distance and came to the garden inside the inn.
He stopped and looked at his companion and said, "The young man in the inn...... They still do this? Can even hire people on behalf of customers? ”
The inn where they had stayed before had rarely heard anything like this.
The guard looked at his companion who was more senior than himself, trying to hear the answer from his mouth.
"Yes, but very little!"
The companion's tone was very calm, and he looked at him and responded: "That young lady only brought one maid out, two girls, it is definitely not convenient to do things." ”
He paused for a moment and continued: "There are also people who ask the inn to find two people who run errands for them. ”
This little episode is just a topic of small talk on the way.
...... The two guards quickly crossed the courtyard and reached the small courtyard at the back.
As soon as you walk in, you will be greeted by a familiar and tranquil scenery, with tall trees and the smell of flowers wafting in the cold wind.
The guard looked at the scenery in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh to his companion: "If we didn't need to rush to the Northland, it would be good to stay here for a few days." ”
The companion glanced at him and answered unceremoniously: "You think too much! ”
...... When the two guards arrived upstairs in the small courtyard where they lived, they went to Tianfang's residence and their own house one after another, but they did not find the other two people.
"Strange, where did the two of them go? Let's go out to run errands, and so do they? I don't think the Lord told them! ”
The guard looked surprised, and then hesitated a little, "Nothing happened, right?" ”
The companion glanced back at the guard with a hesitant expression, and after thinking, said, "They may have gone to the front yard to eat." ”
He thought about it again, and his previous attention was drawn to the little maid who was talking to the innkeeper at the door, and he didn't even bother to look that way.
"We were in a hurry when we came back just now," the companion paused and continued, "I haven't been to the front yard to see it, or I'll go and see if they're there?" ”
"I'd better go," the guard said to his companion after a moment of relief, "you can wait for us here." ”
Before his companion could say yes, the guard hurriedly turned around and went out.
He sped past the courtyard and walked straight in the direction of the front yard.
...... Unexpectedly, I met two companions who came back halfway.
"How did you get back? How's it going on the Lord's side? ”
His companion looked at him in surprise and stepped forward to ask.
Just as the guards guessed in their hearts, they thought that the two of them would go out with the sky, and most of them would not be able to come back until dark, and they definitely didn't expect to return to the inn so soon.
His companion, who had returned from the front yard with him, also quickly answered: "We have no new movement here, and we have never seen any suspicious people. ”
Hearing this, the guard looked at them and sighed, "We waited at the entrance of the town with the lord, and we were drinking tea and watching the excitement all morning. ”
He glanced around the courtyard and didn't find any suspicious people passing by, but he still lowered his voice a little and said, "The notice of the king master posted at the entrance of the town...... There were a lot of people around, and even the teahouse where we were sitting was full of people. ”
"It's a pity that until the two of us left, I still didn't see the trace of the little sister of the Lord."
The guard was a little frustrated, and there was a hint of regret in his tone.
"I don't know when the little sister of the Lord will appear!"
"Then why did you come back halfway, what is the matter?"
Since there is no news, it is even more strange to come back halfway.
"Well, we've got a message from the Northlands."
The companion who followed him hesitated for a moment, then looked at the guard and asked.
"Tell me some news, so that we can be prepared," his companion asked with a tentative tone as he looked at him, "what does the letter from the Northland say?" ”
Hearing this, the guard immediately shook his head and said, "In my opinion, it's still not very convenient to talk here, so let's talk about it in detail when we go to the residence." ”
The satellite TV line landed on a few strangers who were gradually approaching in the distance, and they suddenly became alert.
He immediately said to his two companions: "Someone is coming to us, hurry back!" ”
They followed the guard's gaze and looked at each other, and nodded suddenly.
At that moment, they did not hesitate, and the three of them walked together in the direction of the small building, and soon they arrived at the front of the building and walked quickly upstairs.
......: "Why did you come back to the inn and take the wrong road?" We've been drinking tea and waiting in the front yard. ”
When his companion walked into the hallway, he couldn't help but ask the guard.
"It's all my fault that I'm distracted," the guard said with a little annoyance, "When I came with him, I saw a little maid at the door of the inn discussing with the young man at the inn about hiring someone, and it was rare to hear it, so I took a few more looks." ”
"I see, I said why didn't you go to the front yard to see it!"
The companion suddenly understood.
...... Pushing the door open and entering the house, the four of them met.
As soon as the four of them got together, they were naturally the ones with the most stable personality when they spoke.
He lowered his voice and said, "We have received a message from the Northland that the royal division has arrived in the town and marched to the valley near the battlefield to camp. ”
"It's fast enough, I saw them delay near Nanhua Town for so long, and I thought they didn't arrive in the north so quickly, but I didn't expect to get up quickly, it was unexpected."
The companion's tone was emotional.
Not only did they not expect this, but also many officials in the Sealand army who went north with the empress did not expect it!
"The Empress is also over there?" The companion asked.
"No, I heard that the empress is in the town, isn't the Northland battlefield close to the town? Recently, a lot of people have come from there and gone all the way south, but there are still some who stay there. ”
"It's the Lord's will for us to come back, let us inform you both."
"When the lord finds the little junior sister, he may arrange for us to set off to the north immediately, so we have to fully cooperate to solve the remaining problems first."
The companion thought for a while, and said with a serious expression: "The Lord is going to the Northland, and we have to prepare a carriage from the town." (To be continued.) )
