Chapter 720: It turned out to be Dong Jie of the Dragon and Tiger Five Heroes
The old man saw the soft sword in Situ Hong's hand against his throat, and he didn't panic at all, the corners of his mouth turned slightly to reveal a shallow smile, and his voice was no longer old-fashioned, "Hehehehe...... he really deserves to be the champion of the new department, and even the wife next to him is also a master of swordsmanship!" ”
I listened to his words and felt that he was actually transfigured, and hurriedly beckoned Yuqiong and the princess on the side to come over, and then raised my eyes to look at him and asked, "I have no grievances with you, who are you?" Why should it be bad for you? ”
"No grievances?" The 'old man' smiled faintly, and in a flash, he deftly dodged Situ Hong's sword, his strength was neither light nor heavy, even Situ Hong didn't expect him to be able to dodge the sword in his hand so easily, he looked at me and continued: "Bi Gongzi, do you remember the five masters of the dragon and tiger? ”
"Dragon and Tiger Five?" I muttered to myself, and instantly remembered, wasn't Liu Jie, who was guarding the Xu Mansion at the beginning, the head of the five heroes of the dragon and tiger, could it be said that the person in front of me who had changed his appearance was one of the five heroes of the dragon and tiger?
"Not bad!" The 'old man' looked at me and smiled faintly.
"I know Liu Jie, one of the five heroes of Dragon and Tiger, dare to ask who your Excellency is?" I asked as I looked at him quietly.
"Dong Jie!" The old man said in a deep voice.
When I heard the two words, I instantly understood, if I remember correctly, on the way from Chizhou City to the capital to catch the exam, Situ Hong and I met with this Dong Jie a few times, but every time he appeared in disguise, and we only learned about Lu Dao later, when Situ Hong and I stayed at the Xingzhi Inn. once promised Zhao Jie, the shopkeeper who is also one of the five heroes of Dragon and Tiger, to help rescue the fifth child who was locked up in the prison, could it be that this time this Dong Jie in front of him came for this time?
"It turned out to be Brother Dong, isn't Brother Dong coming here for Dong Qing's business?" I looked at him and asked solemnly.
"Hmph, it turns out that Bi Gongzi hasn't forgotten it, I thought Bi Gongzi had already forgotten about it!" Dong Jie heard me say this, and said in a deep voice after a cold snort.
Listening to Dong Jie's words, I can also understand it, although Dong Qing is also one of the five heroes of the Dragon and Tiger, but he and Dong Jie are siblings, although Liu Jie and Zhao Jie also want to rescue Dong Qing who is locked in the prison. But in the end, the person who cares most about Dong Jie is still Dong Jie. Actually, it's my fault for this, there have been too many things since I entered the capital, and I forgot about it, alas~. I'll have to think about it when I get back. On the way to Beijing, I still have those things that I promised but didn't do. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to find them.
Situ Hong, who was beside him, also knew that I had promised to rescue Dong Qing, and when he heard Dong Jie's words, he couldn't help but relax, looked at him and said, "Can you listen to me?" ”
"Miss Situ, please speak!" Although Dong Jie had a look of disdain on his face. But he still said politely to Situ Hong.
Situ Hong put away the sword in his hand, looked at Dong Jie and said: "At this time, you can't blame your husband, since we entered Beijing, we have encountered a lot of trouble, and then the palace test was not very smooth, I think you should have heard of it, on the day when the emperor appointed the champion, my husband was seriously injured for a few days in order to protect the sharp blade in the emperor's body, and after the injury was healed, he visited the ten states with a holy order, and he didn't care about interceding for the five heroes of the dragon and tiger, if time permits, why didn't my husband intercede for you?!" ”
Situ Hong's words were full of affection, and Dong Jie couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard her words, and it could be seen that he was also a little rational.
I took a step forward while the iron was hot and said: "Brother Dong, at this time, I will be careless in the next moment, after he returns to Beijing from his visit to ten states, he will definitely intercede with the emperor for Brother Ling, and Brother Ling's release from prison is just around the corner!" ”
"Humph!" Dong Jie snorted coldly when he heard my words, glanced at me and said, "Don't be even busier with Bi Gongzi's affairs and forget about these little things again!" ”
"Brother Dong laughed, how could he be such a person in the next place!" I forced a few smiles and looked at him and said.
"Okay, since Bi Gongzi said so, then I will thank Bi Gongzi first, and then thank him when he is released from prison!" Dong Jie said and raised his hand and arched his hand towards me.
Seeing this, I hurriedly returned the salute: "Then it will be disrespectful when you fall!" ”
Oops, an invisible crisis has finally been resolved by us. When Dong Jie saw that I agreed to him, he no longer regarded me as an enemy.
Yuqiong, the princess, and Situ Qing behind me listened to our words with puzzled faces, and I watched them patiently explain the previous matter, and they nodded to show that they understood.
Dong Qing listened to me tell a few people what happened, and he didn't intervene on the side, and only after I finished talking did he look at me and said, "Master Bi, in fact, this time I didn't just come to ask about the crime. ”
I was shocked, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Dong has other things?" ”
"Not bad!" Dong Jie nodded, then raised his hand and took out a small metal card from his arms, "This time I came here to be entrusted by my eldest brother to give this waist card to Bi Gongzi!" With that, he handed me the metal plate.
I raised my hand and took the metal card and looked at it for a while, Dong Jie continued: "Lord Xu heard that Master Bi destroyed the previous waist card for the emperor's next sword, and he rushed to make a golden waist card overnight, and the eldest brother was also entrusted by Lord Xu, but there was still something that could not be delivered, so I asked me to send this waist card." ”
"It turned out to be Lord Xu's waist card!" I stroked the small gold medal in my hand, I couldn't put it down, this small waist card is not big, but the weight is sufficient, compared with the previous jade waist card, this piece is much more valuable, "Brother Dong thanked Lord Xu for it!" "I hurriedly put away this little gold medal, Shi Li said.
"Bi Gongzi doesn't need to be polite." Dong Jie also lost his previous arrogance, and his attitude towards me was much more polite.
The sound of horses' hooves in the distance was loud as I spoke, and before I could look up, I heard Situ Qing behind me shouting: "Brother-in-law, it's Han Sheng, Han Sheng is back in the carriage......!" ”
When I heard this, my heart was overjoyed.
Dong Jie couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard Situ Qing's words, looked at me and clasped his fists and said: "There has always been a gap between me and the inner guards, so I don't need to see it much, so I will leave!" "After that, I raised my feet and left.
"Brother Dong go slowly!" I shouted when I saw this.
"What else is going on with Bi Gongzi?" Dong Jie stopped, turned to look at me and asked.
I looked at him but didn't know how to speak, "Well......, it's actually nothing...... ”
"If Bi Gongzi has nothing to do, then he will leave next!" Before I could finish speaking, Dong Jie glanced at the approaching carriage behind him, turned around and disappeared in a flash.
Looking at his disappearing back, I felt depressed for a while, in fact, I wanted to ask him, what does this easy-to-look face look like?!
"Bi Gongzi......, Her Royal Highness the princess ......!" In the blink of an eye, Han Sheng drove the carriage to our approach, and as soon as the carriage stopped, Han Sheng jumped down from it.
"Brother Han, have you found the carriage?" I looked at the tall carriage in front of me and couldn't help but say excitedly.
"Hmm." Han Sheng nodded softly, then looked at a few of us and asked, "Master Bi, I seem to have seen someone here just now?" Why is it gone? ”
"Han Guard, he said he was a dragon ......!" The princess opened her mouth and said.
"It's passing, passing!" I hurriedly interrupted the princess's words, and glanced at her before looking at Han Shengying.
"Passerby?" Han Sheng looked at me suspiciously and asked.
I dodged his eyes, nodded slightly, and said, "It's a passing ......." With that, I turned to a few people behind me and said, "Get in the car, we'll find some good food when we get to town!" He waved his hand.
Situ Hong and Yuqiong helped each other into the carriage, Situ Qing also helped the princess into the carriage, and then I jumped into the carriage, looked at Han Sheng and said, "Brother Han, let's go!" ”
Han Sheng saw a few of us get into the carriage, and couldn't help but be stunned, and then jumped into the carriage, and the high-headed horse with the whip in his hand walked up slowly, but looking at Han Sheng's eyes seemed to be a little unwilling, his lips moved slightly as if he was saying something, I tried to learn from his appearance to interpret his meaning, but after a while, I hid in the carriage, he was saying, "Didn't you say that you would let Situ Qing catch the car and let me rest?" ”
