Chapter 50: The Narrow Road {Collect}
Zuo Chen slept until three poles in the morning, and the rooster crow when he was in Fengxiang was one of them, and it was because of the long journey all the way, and he tossed for half a night before he fell asleep.
Zuo Chen walked out of the room and looked at the empty courtyard, which was very quiet. My stomach growled, and I realized that the problem of eating was not solved. Why didn't anyone come to say hello for breakfast? Zuo Chen thought so in his heart and walked to the front hall.
On the way, I met a small guy, and when I saw Zuo Chen coming over, he respectfully bowed and waited aside, until Zuo Chen walked to the side, and he didn't know what to call it, presumably the steward went to find a shop in the morning, and he didn't explain to the people in a hurry.
Zuo Chen, who came out of the inner courtyard, must be a noble status in the eyes of the little guy, and he didn't dare to open his mouth to call him casually, and he was hesitating and didn't know what to do.
"I'm hungry, where can I have breakfast?" Zuo Chen stood beside him, tilting his head and looking at the embarrassed little guy, feeling a little funny. The heart said, as for seeing me nervous like this?
"You ......, where do you want to eat, and the small one will be brought to you." The little guy lowered his head and looked at his toes, and said softly.
"I'll go to the front hall, you send me over quickly, I'm hungry." Zuo Chen said, no longer entangled in the tension of the little girl, and walked forward quickly. The heart said that people in the metropolis are exquisite, but when I said to eat, he said it was a meal.
The little guy took a deep breath and ran to the kitchen in confusion, wondering which nobleman was so casual.
Zuo Chen walked all the way to the front hall, and he didn't see Zhang Youcai and a few of them, not that he was worried that they would be hungry, the perennial military life in the border pass had developed their character of being a general, and other people would take it seriously, lest these men go to the street, and it is true that they have no scruples to fight.
If you want to find a cup of hot water to warm your stomach, touch the teapot is also cool thoroughly. Zuo Chen was slandering the desolation of the General's Mansion, and the little servant tiptoed into the front hall with dishes and chopsticks.
A bowl of steaming millet porridge, a few fritters and an egg, in Zuo Chen's hungry state, is tantamount to a delicacy like delicacies from the mountains and the sea. There was a burst of gobbling and the little guy was dumbfounded.
The little girl thought to herself, still worried about this nobleman's picky food, who would have thought that he would eat like this, and the boss fell to the ground with a stone in his heart.
"Hiccup!" Zuo Chen, who was burping, patted his stomach and smiled: "This stomach is very content!" Immediately after filling the food, the calling stopped. It would be even better if there was a cup of hot water. ”
"Wait a minute, I'll get it for you." After the little guy finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the front hall again. I muttered in my heart, this is a nobleman? How to dine is not picky at all, gobbling up like a flower child on the street.
Zuo Chen was bored in the mansion, and Zhang Youcai's five men watched from afar outside the Yin Mansion in Sun Mansion. They were a little worried that Sun Fu Yin would have a bad heart for his son.
Sure enough, Yin Chenshi of Sun Mansion came out of the mansion, got on a sedan chair and left in a hurry.
"Keep up and take a look." Zhang Youcai said in a low voice.
The sedan chair was in a hurry, and the five people behind were also in a hurry, and they arrived at the Li Mansion after a while.
"Whose mansion is this?" Zhang Kang turned his head and asked suspiciously.
"Who knows! Alas, Xiao Wu, you go to find someone to ask, whose mansion is this, what official title, inquire more clearly. Zhang Youcai explained carefully.
"Seeing that this Li Mansion is also very imposing, it is estimated that he is also a member of the imperial court, seeing that Sun Yongquan has been in the mansion for so long, I don't know if it is bad to hold back the bad to be bad for our son-in-law." Zhang Kang frowned and said to Zhang Youcai, faintly worried in his heart, because he had caused trouble for Zuo Chen.
"Who can know now, why don't you go into the mansion and ask Sun Yongquan, are you holding back bad thoughts?" Zhang Youcai knew that he regretted it in his heart, and said jokingly.
"Look at you, how can you make fun of me when you are serious with you!" Zhang Kang took a heavy breath, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.
"If you knew this was the case, why bother in the first place! With your fiery temper, if you don't change it, something big will happen. This is the open-minded child, and he didn't take it to heart, and he called you Uncle Zhang one by one. Zhang Youcai glanced at Zhang Kang, there is no way to take this cousin, they all say that the country is easy to change and difficult to change, isn't it?
Zhang Youcai does not look down on Zhang Kang, except that this hot temper is unacceptable, whether it is dealing with people or emotional integrity, Zhang Kang is still impeccable. Otherwise, how could the general have included him in the most trusted ranks of his own soldiers?
patting Zhang Kang on the shoulder, Zhang Youcai saw that he was in a low mood, and said: "I'm just giving you another reminder, it's not that you haven't seen it, Gongzi didn't take it to heart at all." Remember, just pay attention to it later. ”
Zhang Kang didn't dare to look at Zhang Youcai's eyes, didn't speak, blushed and nodded, which can be regarded as approving of these words.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Wu is back.
"It's a high-ranking official of the Criminal Department, called Li Ziqin, do you know?" Xiao Wu Xing said impulsively, his eyes looked left and right in front of him, stunned by the duck-like crowd.
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Kang slapped his thigh and said, "It's broken!" ”
When Zhang Youcai heard Zhang Youcai's tone, his heart trembled suddenly, and he asked nervously: "What?" You know?"
"Brothers, I'll talk to my brother about something, you keep an eye on it." Zhang Kang said as he picked up Zhang Youcai and left, leaving the three of them staring at each other with big eyes.
Zhang Youcai felt that the situation might be serious, because he had never seen Zhang Kang so nervous, and he had never been nervous on the battlefield.
"Alright, how far do you have to go!" Zhang Youcai was nervous and anxious, and he didn't have a good tone for Zhang Kang.
Smiling awkwardly at the three people behind him, Zhang Kang turned his face and said: "Li Ziqin is the opponent of the general, eight years ago, the general returned to Kyoto to restore his life, and on the way, it was Li Ziqin's son Li Shuang who set up an ambush and wanted to murder the general, but was annihilated by the general, and I was present at the time." ”
After saying it in one breath, Zhang Kang gasped heavily. Maybe it was nervousness, and beads of sweat the size of beans came out of his forehead.
"You and your brother are staring here, don't be impulsive! Don't mention this to them for now, I'll go back and inform Childe. Remember, don't be impulsive! Zhang Youcai cautiously instructed Zhang Kang, saw him nodding to himself, patted Zhang Kang's shoulder, turned around and ran away.
Zhang Youcai hurriedly ran into the General's Mansion, and when he stood in front of Zuo Chen panting, Zuo Chen was leisurely sipping tea, looking up at him with a puzzled face, and his face was full of panic.
“…… Yes...... Big trouble. Zhang Youcai said breathlessly, running all the way faintly feeling a little angry.
His mouth opened wide in astonishment. Zuo Chen thought to himself, what happened again? Or come back and report it alone. The people sent by the big face plate are too unreliable, and this hasn't happened yet, and there will be trouble again?
Zuo Chen thought sneeringly, and would never express his position directly, and said, "Uncle Zhang, don't worry, you speak slowly." ”
"It's the general's enemy, Sun Yongquan has arrived in the general's enemy's mansion." Zhang Youcai relieved himself and said nervously, with a panic on his face that could not be concealed.
"Enemies? Who is it? Zuo Chen was full of solemn expressions, and he was telling the truth in his heart, didn't he get together?
"Senior official of the Criminal Department, Li Ziqin." Zhang Youcai replied.
"Li Ziqin of the Criminal Department." Zuo Chen muttered, thinking about this somewhat impressive name.
Zuo Chen's thoughts continued to extend backwards, and it took a long time to remember that his father had been rewarded in Kyoto, and he had carefully mentioned it in the old man's house when he returned home. Yes, it was this Li Ziqin's son who died at the hands of his father.
"What about the rest? Why did you come back on your own? Zuo Chen suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Zhang Kang and the four of them yet, and his face was full of anxious looks.
Zhang Youcai was very moved by Zuo Chen's performance, and hurriedly said excitedly: "They are fine, I explained to Zhang Kang carefully when I returned home, don't be impulsive." ”
"The situation can change at any time, you go back and call them all back. Go and come back quickly! Zuo Chen was still very anxious, got up and pushed Zhang Youcai outward, and said: "Li Ziqin's second son, Li Qiang, is the commander of the Imperial City Forbidden Army, and he is a very dangerous and skilled person. ”
Listening to Zhang Youcai's ears, it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, how could I meet a random one in Kyoto with a background, I slandered in my heart, and I ran to the direction of Li Mansion with the strength under my feet.
Zuo Chen looked at Zhang Youcai who was far away, and thought to himself, it's best if nothing happens, once there is a problem, it is estimated that the four of them will not get a little benefit.
muttering "Li Ziqin" in his mouth, recalling the cautious words of the big face at that time, Zuo Chen really couldn't cry or laugh in his heart. whispered and said, it's really a place not to meet in life! Li Ziqin finally looked forward to it, and I came all the way from the countryside to Kyoto to meet him.
Thinking that I came to Kyoto, I didn't think about it. Thinking that sooner or later they will have to face it, the Li family who can't solve the knots. Thinking about the safety of Zhang Kang and his party, Zuo Chen unconsciously walked from the front hall to the door of the mansion.
"Childe, why did you get outside? Is this going out of the house? The steward Wang Ping rushed back and met Zuo Chen who was standing at the door outside the mansion.
"Ahh Zuo Chen looked at Wang Ping, and then at the stone lion at the door.
Looking at Wang Ping's stunned appearance, he really had the feeling that the second monk couldn't find his head.
"Childe, do you have something on your mind?" Wang Ping felt Zuo Chen's uneasiness and asked worriedly.
"Oh, Uncle Zhang, they're out of the house, I'll wait for them later. You go first, and I'll be back in a moment. Zuo Chen said, his eyes patrolling the streets left and right, and he didn't know which direction Zhang Kang and the others came back from.
"When we went out of the house together in the morning, they said they were casually strolling, and I didn't care...... Wang Ping said in a chattering voice.
Zuo Chen suddenly felt very annoyed in his heart, and couldn't help but be irritable, holding back his emotions and asking, "Uncle Wang, has the shop been lost?" Zuo Chen, who didn't look back, knew that he was deliberately interrupting Wang Ping's remarks that he was not nutritious.
