Chapter 322: Four Horses (Two in One)
Wen Sheng remembered Zhong Tianzheng's evaluation of the fourth princess that day, and now it seems that it is really appropriate, and he did not wronged her.
The master and servant chatted a few more words, and someone outside urged: "Princess, the hour is not early, and the horses have been here for a long time, please clean up and prepare to worship the church." â
Although the tone was deferential, there was not enough respect in the words.
The fourth princess cursed in a low voice, and the vulgarity of the words surprised Wen Sheng.
Qiubo hurriedly got up, helped the four princesses change into wedding robes, praised the princess's flower and moon appearance, the bed was too late to be made, and several maids and women rushed in outside, hugging the four princesses out of the door.
The two mothers-in-law fell behind, and one whispered: "Why is there nothing arranged, not even a wedding bed?" â
Another said: "Don't meddle in your business, don't you want to die, can you hold up when you're full?" â
Wen Sheng listened to the footsteps and talking outside gradually moving away, as if all the people in the room were gone, so he moved his numb limbs, aimed the short knife at the inconspicuous air outlet hole next to the cage, and enlarged it little by little, and it took a full two quarters of an hour to climb out from inside.
It's a bedroom, and there's not much furnishings, let alone a lot of grandeur.
The marriage bed, wardrobe, and tables and chairs all looked new, but they had just been purchased, and there was not even a bottle of wine on the table, and a bunch of cages were piled up in the corner after no one cleaned them up.
The red felt floor is paved, the doors and windows are pasted with the word "happy", and the huge room looks very empty.
Wen Sheng reached into his coat and touched his waist. Put your mind at ease, put away the short knife, and take the "peace". Turning sideways to the door, he leaned over and looked out.
It was already dark, and a string of lanterns hung by the stone road outside the house, and no one was in sight.
Generally speaking, a princess's residence, even if it is a temporary place to stay, should not be so laxly guarded.
From the front yard came bursts of joy and noise.
The four princesses got married. Will Yang Haojian come in person? Will Zhong Tianzheng come again?
Also, who is the freshly baked four-horse pony?
Wen Sheng flashed out the door, not waiting to go far. Listening to the faint shout of "send into the cave room" in the front yard, everyone applauded, followed the footsteps and scattered, and the worship hall ended. The newcomer is going to be sent back.
Wen Sheng didn't have time to think about it. I had to hide behind a flower tree on the side.
When the newlyweds enter the cave room, they will soon find that there is something wrong with the cage, and they know that someone has sneaked in, so they can't say it, and they have to find an opportunity to get out with "Tanhua".
She thought like this, but for some reason, the couple in front of her lingered for a while before entering this courtyard.
Listening to the footsteps, the fourth princess's angry voice sounded: "Close the door!" What is this princess! This tone. It doesn't look like a bride who has just finished worshipping at church.
Later, Qiu Bo followed and trotted, panting and echoing: "Yes." It's too much, how can you call the horse away directly without entering the cave room and not removing the hijab, the princess is angry, His Royal Highness the King of Han sent General Pei to watch the ceremony, I went to invite him, and talked to him, so that His Royal Highness will be the master of you. â
The fourth princess sneered again and again: "This princess has made such a big concession, but my good brother doesn't even want to come." â
There were also seven or eight maids and daughters-in-law who followed the master and servant back to the backyard together, and they followed cautiously one by one, and they didn't dare to come out, for fear of touching the moldy head of the fourth princess.
Qiu Bo hesitated and persuaded: "The princess doesn't like horses, and His Royal Highness the King of Han may also know." Plus the military situation in front of the emergency ......"
"If this princess doesn't like it anymore, if you don't tell him to leave, he has to serve me honestly."
When the master and servant entered the house, the door was slammed shut, making a loud noise.
The maids and ladies retreated, and kept the rules in the courtyard.
Wen Sheng no longer wasted time, sat in the dark shadow of the flowers, pressed the strings with his left hand, and gently picked up the index finger of his right hand.
The sound of the piano is ethereal.
Not to mention how complicated the fingering of this song "Tanhua" is, Wen Sheng can handle it with one hand, she has to sit down and do her best, in order to add some extra skills when the strings sound, so as not to be lightly judged by others to determine the direction of hiding.
"Exploring Flowers", someone in the courtyard said strangely: "Where is the piano sounding?" â
A mother-in-law covered her mouth and yawned: "I don't know, which guest is in front, it's quite nice." â
The crowd was unimpressed.
These servants were very unfamiliar with the musicians' methods, not to mention the mysterious "Xi Sheng", until they fell asleep listening to the sound of the piano, and did not have the slightest suspicion.
Wen Sheng came out of the shadows, picked a maid at random, took off her coat, and put it on herself in order to hide from others.
She pushed the door into the cave room, ignored the four princesses and Qiu Bo, combed her hair again in the mirror, and found a coat to put in the crook of her arm, barely covering the peace.
On such a noisy night, if others just glance at it from afar, they should not be suspicious.
Wen Sheng packed up, opened the door and went out of the backyard.
The banquet in front of him was not dispersed, and the laughter and noise floated all the way, all of which were such as "General Pei, brother toasts you!" "Brother Chen, my brother did it first as a respect." Something like that.
There were too many people to put them all down, so Wen Sheng gave up his plan to leave from the front and turned around to find the back door.
This mansion gives Wen Sheng the feeling that it is not like a wealthy family, but like the home of a rich man in the countryside.
Thinking about it, there are indeed no big towns outside Xionghuai Pass, Yang Haojian and Zhong Tianzheng should occupy which squire's house to settle the four princesses and their party.
After a while, Wen Sheng found the back door, which was guarded by a team of soldiers, and the lights were as bright as day.
Although the number of people was small, Wen Sheng was worried that they would exchange words with the troops patrolling the streets outside, so he did not dare to act rashly, and was ready to wait and wait for a while to observe secretly.
Change happens suddenly.
As soon as Wen Sheng stopped, he listened to a few whistles outside the wall, followed by a group of people running by.
The guards didn't know what was going on, so they shouted outside: "Brothers, what's wrong?" â
Someone outside the wall replied: "I don't know, it seems that the enemy is coming." â
There was a sharp sound of horses' hooves. Immediately, the voice of the man came from far and near: "Hurry up and send a message to your lords, there is an enemy who has touched the Zhuangzi, and the horse is attacked." â
With the voice go away. There was a lot of chaos on the street, and the soldiers guarding the door immediately divided a few and ran to report the news.
Wen Sheng listened to the gradual silence outside the wall, and knew that his time had come.
With the sound of the piano, those soldiers were all like frightened birds, holding knives and guns to look around for where the piano player was, just looking at this reaction, Wen Sheng felt that these few must not be Zhong Tianzheng's subordinates. Otherwise, when you hear the sound of your own piano, you should have hugged your head and ran away from it.
If even these people can find her, Wen Sheng won't have to mix.
Shun lĂŹ went out the door. Wen Sheng hid in the shadows, and quietly went to the place where people neighed on their horses and reported that they had encountered the enemy.
I don't know where the Holy came to make trouble, and also attacked the four horses who had just worshipped, so lively. How could she not have come and see it for herself?
It's really rural. The night was dark, and there were many houses, which were bigger than the village Qian Ping had taken her to before, and it looked normal.
At this moment, there are about 1,000 people gathered at the entrance of the village, and the noise is terrible.
But it didn't take long for the people to retreat like a tide.
The night wind was mixed with the sound of "woo", like crying and complaining, and it was indescribably deep and gloomy. But it is in the ears of all. But it's like a spell that urges life, and it's distorted and creepy.
The war horse screamed.
Rushing too far forward is too late to retreat. I couldn't help but fall to the ground, covering my ears and rolling.
Wen Sheng only heard the sound of an iron flute in the wind.
Among the people who came, there was a musician, at least the realm of the eight methods of the wonderful sound.
What is the concept of the Miaoyin Eight Methods and the Sixfold, that is the level that only those top teachers in the Xuanyin Pavilion have.
Wen Sheng quickened his pace to meet him.
Maybe the one who played the iron flute was really the master of Xuanyin Pavilion, and if that was the case, he would have to see it.
Different from the previous music teachers in the cabinet, this flute is full of slaughter, so that Wen Sheng can't tell who is coming, but the teachers in the cabinet are good at the iron flute, and there is really one who has fought with her, "Luo Meisheng" Kong Changyi.
The closer the sound of the flute became, the ordinary soldiers were no longer around.
After several years of training, the influence of Miao Yin Eight Methods and Six Layers on Wen Sheng is now minimal, and there is no need to play the qin to fight, and this flute sound is equivalent to clearing the way for her.
At this time, Wen Sheng lost the disguise that was covered in peace, thought about it, and in order to recognize each other, he ripped off the maid's coat, revealing his original clothes, and spread his hair.
She had seen the flute player in the distance.
The man stood under the big tree at the head of the village, with the iron flute on his lips, his eyebrows lowered, and he played intently, while two men who looked like followers stood by, holding up torches, which illuminated the faces of the three of them.
The person who played the flute was not Kong Changyi!
Wen Sheng was excited, although Kong Changyi was the division commander of the North Courtyard and a former team battle opponent, but after being away from Beijing for so long, suddenly seeing him, Wen Sheng couldn't help but feel close in his heart.
She wanted to go out and recognize each other, but she took two quick steps and suddenly noticed that there were others in front of her.
The two entourages beside Kong Changyi were holding knives in their hands, and the blades glowed with cold light, forcing the three people sitting on the ground.
The blade was no more than half a foot from the necks of the three people, and it was almost a knife that could take the other person's life lightly.
The three of them looked dejected, rather wolf-like.
The middle one is wearing a big red robe, no hat, tall and burly, with a scruffy beard on his face, this person is dressed with this outfit, and he looks indescribably funny, but Wen Sheng can't laugh, this four horses have skinned her bones, and it is Feng Songchuan.
Her heart jumped twice, why is Feng Songchuan here, and why has he become a four-horse horse?
Thinking like this, she immediately stood still, no longer leaning forward.
Kong Changyi and others did not find Wen Sheng.
Feng Songchuan was looking up at his face, constantly defending himself and begging for mercy.
Kong Changyi frowned, and the sound of the flute overshadowed Feng Songchuan's voice.
At this time, more than a dozen figures rushed from the village, and just looking at the lightness and swiftness of the jump, you can see that this team is not weak.
Kong Changyi saw them coming over and stopped the iron flute, and the man at the head said: "Mr. Kong, Yang Haojian didn't come, I only saw a few straw bales from Pei Zong, I waited to kill Pei Zong, and the rest is not worth shooting!" â
Kong Changyi seemed to be a little surprised, and looked down at Feng Songchuan: "Hey, this is strange, today is the big day for Lord Feng and the fourth princess to get married, and the second highness didn't come to congratulate?" Zhong Tianzheng didn't come either? â
The man replied, "I didn't find it." â
Feng Songchuan shouted loudly: "Mr. Kong, what kind of person Feng is, don't you know, Feng is loyal to the emperor, loyal to the Liang, and sworn to follow the national teacher, I fell into the hands of Zhong Tianzheng from Jiangbei, let him humiliate the prisoner in every way, and never surrendered, he took my seal, and did whatever he wanted in my name, today Feng and the princess visited the church, and he also arranged it, his subordinates have been following me, a little disobedient, punching and kicking, Mr. Kong saved me, I want to go back to Beijing to talk to the national teacher face to face......"
The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and the seven-foot-tall man actually cried loudly: "The person surnamed Zhong actually abolished my martial arts in order to control me." I've been practicing hard for most of my life...... It's over, it's all over. â
Kong Changyi suddenly realized this, no wonder no matter which side arrested him just now, Feng Songchuan did not resist at all.
He and Feng Songchuan have known each other for many years, and they have never seen him cry like this, and then look at him as haggard, like a changed person, I can't help but feel pity in my heart, Feng Songchuan is not like others, there is no family in-laws to rely on, to have today, one is to save the driver, and then to rely on a good martial arts.
Now that the old emperor can't count on it, this martial art is gone, and this person is finished, no wonder he is sad like this.
Thinking of this, Kong Changyi sighed, and was about to speak, when the entourage on the side preemptively said: "It's not good, Mr. Kong, isn't this marriage a trap set by the other party, let's leave quickly!" â
Kong Changyi came back to his senses at this time, and just as he opened his mouth to speak, he heard that there seemed to be a muffled thunder rolling in the distance, followed by a cannon shot, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly rose, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
surrounded.
Kong Changyi couldn't help but change color, it is true that he is a well-known musician, but no matter how powerful he is, it is impossible for him to run rampant on the battlefield on his own, this period of time in Xionghuai Pass, he has a deep understanding of this.
Fooled.
Without waiting for his command, the people under his command had already raised their knives and fell, cutting down the two people beside Feng Songchuan and protecting Kong Changyi.
A little fire gathered a long dragon and gathered in this direction, and not only that, but with it the sound of music, one, two...... More than a dozen sounds converge in one place and merge into one sound.
Kong Changyi's heart sank more and more, this is Zhong Tianzheng's new music, once dozens of musicians from the other party arrive, even a few Mr. Tan are helpless, let alone him.
The two sides were getting closer and closer, Feng Songchuan was trembling with fright, suddenly got up from the ground, turned around and drilled into the bushes to the side.
Kong Changyi didn't stop him, the enemy is current, who can take care of him.
Feng Songchuan crawled out of the road for a while, wanting to hide in the grass, and then run for his life when no one noticed him in the two fights, but he escaped more than ten zhang away, and suddenly screamed, and a woman stood in front of him, blocking his way.
"You, you, you......" he shuddered and couldn't speak.
It was Wen Sheng who blocked his way: "Lord Feng, don't come unharmed." (To be continued......)
