Chapter 126
On this day, Yan Hongyi encountered difficulties again, and went to the Acropolis across the river to ask for advice or two, and by the way, he went to take a break and did it, and left it to his henchmen to stare at, and he was used to sneaking into the Acropolis.
As soon as the guards guarding the imperial city saw Yan Hongyi, who appeared swaggeringly on the road to the palace, they only pouted, and they all slandered this person in their hearts for being brazen to the extreme, if it wasn't for the fact that the master didn't say anything and asked to leave this person early, how could he go back and forth several times.
Entering the palace, Yan Hongyi saw the familiar red figure at a glance, his eyebrows raised slightly, and doubts flashed in his eyes.
"Prince of Yan Kingdom." Hongrui keenly noticed the unfamiliar footsteps, stopped and looked at the sound, and threw out a sentence without being salty or light.
"Why are you here?" Yan Hongyi asked the bottom of his heart, "What about your master?" "In my impression, the Winged King often follows this woman by his side, and now that he sees the Winged King, he should almost be there, why haven't I heard the news of the Winged King's arrival at the Acropolis?
"My master is not here, what advice does the second prince have?" Hongrui didn't say where the master was, and asked Yan Hongyi, a frequent visitor who had come to the Acropolis as his back garden uninvited.
"There are some questions to ask Xu Gongzi." Yan Hongyi didn't care that Hongrui's eyes revealed the obvious three words of unwelcome, and walked in and out.
"Xu Gongzi is sick, and I will take over his affairs." Hongrui took two steps to the left to stop Yan Hongyi, who was going inside, thinking that she should hurry up and leave after speaking, don't be an eyesore here.
"Oh, do you want a doctor?" Yan Hongyi actually didn't want to get to the bottom of it, but he hadn't dealt with Hongrui head-on. It's a little awkward for a while.
"Don't bother the second prince." The potential means that if you have something to say, your aunt and grandmother are busy, and Hongrui can't stop rolling her eyes.
"Why don't you invite me in and sit down? Anyway, it's also an acquaintance who has known each other for many years. Yan Hongyi has been smoothed out by the officials sent by Yan Guo in the past two years, and he is not irritable and breathless, compared to Hongrui's cold words, he is much better than those brainless officials, and he doesn't care about Hongrui's dislike at this time.
Hongrui can be regarded as personally understanding Xu Chenlin's pain, no wonder there is so much bitter water poured out, it is strange that he does not hold his breath when he encounters such a difficult lord whose face is comparable to the city wall.
"The second prince has something to say. There are many things in Weidi, so there will be no second prince. "Hongrui is impatient to talk to Yan Hongyi, and she is really busy with a lot of things in her hands.
Yan Hongyi was embarrassed to ask if the Wing King was there, and he had a slight resistance to seeing the Wing King. I didn't think much about Hongrui's previous answer.
Without his acquaintance Xu Gongzi, Yan Hongyi has no masochistic tendency to listen to Hongrui's harsh words with a gun and a stick. So he carefully worded and talked about the trouble he encountered, and before he even had time to drink his tea, he returned to Weidi the same way.
On the side of looking at the tide, Xu Chenlin was in the stage of sleeping all night. I'm afraid of a surprise attack from the officials below. He didn't even take off his robe, just to make it easier to deal with accidents, and his sword was placed within reach.
When a glimmer of light appeared in the sky, Xu Chenlin simply got up and washed, he really couldn't sleep, instead of lying dry, it was better to get up and check one or two, so he had a number in his heart.
Xi Chao does not have the habit of sleeping lazy, and is naturally awake at the time of daily sword practice, about one moment later than Xu Chenlin, and the sound insulation effect in the inn is not good. Naturally, I could hear Xu Chenlin, who lived next door, but Xichao didn't sleep well because of the noise. With the secret guards around, instead of worrying about those uncertain things, it is better to keep up the spirit to cope with all changes, and it is not a big deal.
Seeing that the Winged King was so energetic, Xu Chenlin suddenly revealed incomparable resentment, and really responded to the sentence that the emperor is not in a hurry, and the eunuch is in a hurry, and he is not as calm as the Winged King, so embarrassed.
Let's not mention these first, Xu Chenlin has explored a downstairs official who sleeps like a dead pig, where is the staring person, he slept first, and he dared to guarantee that the official who went out to sleep with such a swagger would not be able to notice, and when he woke up, he found that the person was missing and had to fry.
"Eat first, and then go back to catch up on sleep later." Xi Chao plans to sit and wait for trouble to come to the door, and it should be understood that yesterday turned all day, and today is not necessary to spend energy.
After hearing the words of the Wing King, Xu Chenlin finally found something to rely on, since the Wing King said so, there must be a reason for it, and the Wing King is not in a hurry to do anything by himself.
The snoring official woke up, wiped the drool, and suddenly sat up to push the colleagues around him who were not awake, almost forgetting his business, and hurriedly dressed and ran to ask the shopkeeper, whether the two sons upstairs had left.
After getting the exact answer, the heart was able to be put back in the stomach, and after calling breakfast, he sat in the hall with the colleagues who got up one after another, and there was no absent-minded use, and the four of them decided to go back in the way of guessing the box.
The government ushered in a small gathering of officials in the morning, and the matter was left in my heart for a little lack of sleep, yawning and waiting for the official messenger to send the news back.
"The person has been found, and it will be implemented according to the second plan." It is too difficult to find a kind old monk, those monks in the small temple do not complain and step out of the temple half a step, coercion and temptation cannot be achieved, and there is no mood to kill a few stubborn monks to deter, turn around to find a fortune teller, and the time cannot be delayed urgently.
Xichao went out at noon to have lunch at other homes, and learned from the secret guard that Yan Hongyi went to the Acropolis this morning, it seems that Yan Hongyi comes and goes freely like his own backyard The problem is still there, now we must first find out the intention of the Yan State officials to send people to stare at him, and then take the time to see Yan Hongyi to correct his bad habits.
"Amitabha, donor, please stay." A middle-aged monk in a monk's robe blocked the way of the two of them.
Without waiting for Xi Chao to speak, the monk smiled compassionately: "Seeing each other is fate, the poor monk saw that this little prince's face was rich and noble, and the heavenly court faintly revealed blue and black, I am afraid that there will be a disaster recently." "At the end, he said the Buddha's name.
Xu Chenlin listened to the clouds, where did a monk come out of the clouds, and said something inconsequential, is it true or false? I can't help but look at the change in the people's expressions towards this monk, and they are destined to disappoint themselves, but the people of Weidi still uphold the attitude of everyone sweeping the snow in front of the door and ignoring the frost on the tiles of others, and there is no one who even stops to join in the fun.
Xi Chao didn't open his mouth to answer, and carefully looked at the monk in front of him. There was a glimmer of light in his eyes, and there was no doubt that he sneered in his heart, it was really difficult to get into the hall of elegance for such a play, and he did not turn around and leave, nor did he reveal this flawed disguise. I want to see how the monk will act next.
The little boy didn't speak, the monk's heart couldn't help jumping, his face remained unchanged, and he thought about the rhetoric in his head, this play must be performed, otherwise he will not be able to eat and walk around, and the silver will become more and more difficult to earn now.
The set of rhetoric prepared in advance is narrated, and the undulating voice reveals compassion for the distressed, and the performance is presentable, with a nose and eyes.
The tide of the people is almost at the end. The appropriate table xiàn out of the swimming hesitation and a little surprised, words do not need a few more expressions to come out of the very good table xiàn out of the look that should be.
Xu Chenlin saw it one by one, and the longer he came into contact with the Wing King. I know a lot about some of the things on the green fluff, and naturally I know that the Wing King has an indifferent attitude towards all the mysterious things, which will show that there must be a reason why it is so different, so I will write it down and ask later.
Talk about what needs to be said. Seeing that the monk who had already achieved the desired effect, he could be described as a thousand instructions before leaving. You must let Xi Chao go to Yan Kingdom, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.
The arduous task is completed and the monk leaves, the pace remains the same, lest he go too quickly and show his feet, and he is afraid that the two will quietly follow behind him.
"What does the monk mean?" It sounded like he was abducting the Wing King to go to Yan Kingdom, Xu Chenlin felt quite weird, and the set of rhetoric on the surface sounded reasonable. But it's still not right.
"Heh, it seems that someone deliberately staged this play to lure us to Yan Kingdom." Xichao dares to be sure. A sneer crossed the corner of his lips.
"How so?" Xu Chenlin intended to listen to the Wing King's own judgment to see if it coincided with what he thought.
"The performance is good, but it's a pity that the ring scar on the head is new, and it is unconstitutional to deceive people who don't pay attention to details." Lying to himself is a bit of an axe, and Xi Chao feels more and more interesting here.
"Are you sure it's the same group?" Xu Chenlin heard some hidden meaning from the words of the Wing King.
"Of course, it's the official errand who is tracking, and then the stalking downstairs, and I just went out and met a fake monk who is really a fortune teller, although it is not a coincidence that there is no book, but not at the moment." The Xi Dynasty is more than seventy percent sure that the monks are in the same group as the government.
"Are you sure the government hasn't identified you?" Otherwise, how can you be tricked into going to Yan Kingdom, it is not equivalent to letting the Wing King save a lot of effort by throwing himself into the net, Xu Chenlin was suspicious in his heart.
"Wait, there's a follow-up." Since Xi Chao encountered this matter, he had enough patience to wait for the truth to surface.
"Won't it be the government that comes to the door and has to escort you to Yan Kingdom, under the pretext that you have to be enlightened by a Taoist monk, and you have to go through this trip?" Saying such a thing felt unreal just by listening to it, Xu Chenlin couldn't help but smile a little.
"Maybe you'll be guessing it right." Xi Chao echoed Xu Chenlin's words, and there was a new meaning in his eyes.
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't believe it myself, don't say that the government dares to do it." Xu Chenlin shook his head and chuckled, things were getting more and more interesting.
"What should I do next, do what the fake monk said?" Xu Chenlin didn't want to go to Yan Country like this, there were no people around him who were familiar with the region, so he was not afraid of being deceived but really had no bottom in his heart, after all, he was on someone else's territory, and there were many constraints in acting.
"Go back and tell the shopkeeper to check out." Xi Chao took this opportunity to test the next move of the government, why did he focus on himself, and what ulterior secrets were hidden in it.
"Where are you going?" Xu Chenlin mentioned, "It's better to go back and think about it in the long run, you shouldn't take this risk if you don't have enough people around." "The body of the Winged King is ten thousand gold, if something really happens, he will not be able to cut off ten heads.
"It depends." If the opportunity is missed, it will be difficult to have a next time, and the Xi Dynasty is unwilling to give up, maybe he can really find out a little bit to learn about the secrets of the Yan Kingdom's court.
Xu Chenlin heard this, and his words of consolation were useless, and he also knew that the thing that King Yi had made up his mind was to say that he didn't want to do what you wanted, just sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.
The officials over there had just seen the fake monk who had come back to flatter, and learned from him that things were going well, so they gave him money to send him away and discuss what to do next.
The officials wanted to come to the door automatically in the name of the senior monks, and put on a cheerful posture to help others, but when they thought that Taishang's practice of rushing would definitely arouse suspicion, this plan was ruled out by everyone.
We must take advantage of this juncture to get the people who are still in the clouds and fog and have not turned a corner to Yan Kingdom, and I am afraid that things will change if we are late. No one can guarantee that there will be no accidents.
At this time, the official sent out came back to report, saying that the two people had left the room to leave the place, and they didn't dare to delay and ran back to pass the ceremony.
Officials are in a hurry. If people leave, where can they find such a suitable one, no, they have to quickly find a way to trick people into meeting in front of them, and the news to the top has been sent, and the arrow has to be sent.
The official slapped his thigh and came up with such an idea, pretending to be a businessman, and he also had to be guided by the master. In the end, I heard that the master had instructed a person to also go to Yan Kingdom, and went to discuss with that person, and when they met, they said that they wanted to have a companion. There is a photo on the road who is not very familiar with Yan Guo, and he is afraid that the master will lie, on the one hand, he seeks to verify the reason, and on the other hand, he goes to Yan Guo with his heart to take a look, and if he can find the thing in the master's mouth to avoid trouble, he will be very happy. On the contrary, there are many people on both sides, who are not afraid of any accidents and cannot come back.
It doesn't matter if he has loopholes or not. The meaning of the general picture can be explained, now is not the time to discuss the details, all the officials nodded their heads when they heard it, and selected one of the fat and rich officials to act as a businessman, and went back to pull out a suit, and be sure to dress up.
At the moment, the clappers are ready to get up, and find two henchmen to act as businessmen's little servants, so that the shelves are not easy to see flaws.
Yan Hongyi ushered in the return of Zhan Feifei. The two sat down and talked about what happened in the court of Yan Kingdom, and the most they said was the fox spirit who was about to be born and the current situation of Yan Suyi and the queen.
Yan Hongyi, who listened, was furious. Fortunately, the situation is controllable and safe, and at this time, it is best to avoid unnecessary troubles by keeping a low profile.
Zhan Junfei said that Yan Suyi suddenly fell into the favor of the Wing King, at first Yan Hongyi was confused, and then reacted and was shocked, thinking about the Wing King's character that was not lost to others, it was really necessary to fry the pot together, absolutely not.
Zhan Junfei listened to Yan Hongyi's muttering, obviously laughing, obviously mistaken, Yan Suyi's side is a shaved picker, and it is hot, and it is not really hot to the point of madness, anyway, he can't figure out what Yan Suyi's purpose is to make such a surprising decision.
Yan Hongyi almost broke out in a cold sweat when he heard this, it turned out that he was thinking too much, but why didn't King Yi look down on his brother, in terms of status and net worth, he couldn't look down on his brother, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to marry his brother if his vision was too high in this life.
Zhan Junfei poked Yan Hongyi's heart viciously, the Wing King can be escorted by Emperor Mu, this is just a prince, or a prince who is not welcomed by everyone, which one do you say is the best, the Wing King is not worried about marrying, Mu Guo has a lot of young sons who want to climb the high branch of the Wing King.
Yan Hongyi almost vomited a mouthful of old blood when Zhan Junfei dismantled the stage, and threw a knife at Zhan Junfei who said cool words, is there such a burying person, or is he not a friend, why is his elbow always turned out of the piece, which side is he on.
Zhan Junfei shrugged his shoulders very casually, not feeling that he had said anything wrong at all, just talking about things, as for being angry about it.
Yan Hongyi was too lazy to argue with Zhan Junfei about meaningless things, and suddenly remembered something in such a fit of anger and said, "I saw the red rui next to the Wing King yesterday. ”
"The Winged King is here?" As soon as Zhan Junfei spoke, he sensed the meaning of Yan Hongyi's words, "You haven't seen the Wing King himself? "It shouldn't be, the personal maid appeared, and there was no reason why the master was not there.
"I didn't even step into the palace door and was blocked by Hongrui, I didn't want to ask casually at the time, I just listened to it, and now I think it's not quite right." Yan Hongyi frowned and thought about yesterday's situation in detail, and even thought about it.
"Xu Chen is sick, at this time, is it too much of a coincidence?" Zhan Feifei's eyes drooped slightly, and he pondered secretly.
"The Winged King won't make another big move, will he?" Yan Hongyi has been taught several times, although he still doesn't dare to compliment, he really has to admire.
"Let's go and see again." Zhan Junfei didn't dare to be careless, this juncture that coincided with chaos was not sloppy, and he immediately stood up, "I'll go now." "Go early, find out if the purpose of the Wing King's coming here is for the Acropolis or something else.
"At this time?" The sun was about to set, Yan Hongyi knew Zhan Junfei's cautious heart, "Even if you go to the palace, the palace gate has already been closed, and it is difficult to enter." "Not to mention that the official request to see the Wing King will not give anyone's face, it's not that I haven't encountered it before, I was still in the middle of the war at that time, and now it's even more impossible, the Wing King is obviously sleeping on the emperor's body, as for climbing over the wall to enter, don't think about it, no matter who you are, you don't wait to report your identity and take you down, and you will be thrown directly in prison for a night, it is absolutely possible. The Winged King's guards themselves have a deep experience, and this is also a matter of experience.
"Go early tomorrow morning, if the Wing King really comes, he will definitely not be able to leave for a while." Yan Xichao is for the sake of personal safety.
"Well, that's the way it can be." Zhan Junfei listened to what he said, and he couldn't afford to wait for a night.
On this side, the people who came were faster than expected, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him whose fat eyes were about to narrow into a slit, listening to his slightly exaggerated words, he really felt funny in his heart.
Xu Chenlin had to sigh that the Wing King was like a god, the person in front of him who had seen it before, wearing an official uniform, was an official of the Yan Kingdom, and now he has become a businessman who travels south and north, this change is fast enough, the only thing that remains unchanged is probably that this body has not lost many catties of fat.
The merchant spoke very hard, as vividly as possible to show that he really did not lie in order to win the trust of others, and finally asked if he would go with him, his heart was so nervous as if he was clenched that he could not breathe, and success or failure was in this move.
Xi Chao did not give an answer immediately, and finally replied under the urgent eyes of the businessman, saying that he would discuss it with his family and give an answer tomorrow at the latest. (To be continued......)
