Chapter Thirty-Six: It's So Hard to Tell the Truth
There was a lot of autumn rain in the past two days, and it rained quietly at night, and it disappeared in the morning.
However, this is also convenient for Zhao Huchen, if there is no major event in Nanjing, there will generally be no curfew, but the patrolling soldiers are always indispensable, and in the drizzle, the patrolling soldiers always look at each other than usual.
Zhao Huchen in the night walk can easily avoid the attention of these patrolling soldiers in the night rain.
Pei Yuan had a rare impression, and after adding the word Chengxi, he immediately thought of which place it was, and in the night, he quietly approached this black house, and then it seemed to be a shadow, and he merged into this house.
The house was very large, but there were not many places with light, so he looked for a little and walked towards the garden behind, only where there was a faint light, and I thought it was the place where Xu Bai made an appointment to meet him.
It was a bamboo forest, and there were several houses in the bamboo forest, and one of the rooms had a lamp, and under the lamp, someone was sitting there, vaguely Xu Bai.
He looked around to make sure there was no one else, and then he revealed himself and walked towards the room.
"Superior, summon Huchen late at night, but do you know that something happened?"
The people under the lamp did not move, still sitting there, Zhao Huchen approached, and the people were stunned for a moment.
In front of the straw man, there is a note, and there is a burning incense on the note, which seems to have just been lit, and the burning incense has just burned the corner of the note, and it has not yet burned to the "Jixiang Street, Guo Mansion!" left on the note. These words.
He hesitated for a moment, the burning incense had already burned to the word "auspicious", but in the blink of an eye, there was only "...... Main Street, Guo Mansion! ”,
If he continues like this, if he comes a little late, he is afraid that he will not be able to see the message on the paper.
He didn't think about it, turned around and retreated from the house, heading outside, Xu Bai tossed so many tricks in order to see him, even if he didn't say anything, he knew that what he was afraid of was even bigger than he and Yuan Bin imagined, so big that Xu Bai had already begun to be extremely cautious.
Along the way, he didn't dare to delay at all, he didn't know if there was a time limit this time, he was just afraid that if he couldn't get to the address on the note immediately, he was afraid that he would never see Xu Bai again.
Jixiang Street, Guo Mansion!
Roughly because this house is on the street, compared to the gloomy Pei Yuan, it seems to be much more popular here, and there are actually two lanterns at the gate of Guo's mansion, which illuminates the front of the door.
He walked in and stretched out his hand to knock, but the door creaked and opened by itself.
Behind the gate, a man in green clothes glanced at him, he walked in, and the door slowly closed behind him.
Following the silent man in Tsing Yi to walk inside, and finally came to a room with lights, the man in Tsing Yi stopped and understood: "Weapon!" ”
Zhao Huchen was stunned for a moment, and the man in Tsing Yi drooped his eyelids and pointed to his waist. He suddenly realized, took off the golden knife that he had never left at his waist, and handed it to the other party.
"Go in, the superior is waiting for you!" The man in Tsing Yi took the knife and pushed open the door of the house.
"Superior, you can't trust me?" Zhao Huchen entered the room, and at a glance saw Xu Bai sitting at the table talking to someone, he walked up to the other party expressionlessly and asked.
Xu Bai waved his index finger at him, motioned for him to wait, turned his head away, and continued to listen to the man.
"Shishi Xiaozhu has come out alone until now, and no one has come out, and Pei Yuan's brother has also sent back the news, and no other movement has been found!"
"All the way from Pei Yuan to here?"
"No one followed him, and I didn't see any secret marks left by him!"
Xu Bai nodded with satisfaction: "You go out, there's nothing for you here!" ”
The man arched his hand at Xu Bai and walked out of the door silently, Zhao Huchen's eyes followed him to close the door, and then he turned around, and his eyes fell on Xu Bai's body.
"Sit!" Xu Bai pointed to the chair in front of him: "Do you know what happened?" ”
"I don't know!" Zhao Huchen said in a deep voice: "But the superior is obviously guarding against me!" ”
"Huchen, I heard that you have the bloodline of An Yuanbo's family, and now that An Yuanbo is in the bloodline, you are left alone!" Xu Bai said slowly.
Zhao Huchen's slight jaw head was regarded as acknowledging Xu Bai's questioning.
"So, what did you think of when you first saw my cloud rune?" Xu Bai looked at the crackling lights on the table and blinked.
"Don't say that you've been thinking about waiting for the summons from above, waiting to serve the court with your useful body!" Xu Bai said slowly: "Some words, even if you say it to others, I want to listen to what you don't want to say!" ”
"If I talk nonsense, it looks like I won't be able to get out of this place today!" Zhao Huchen glanced outside, revealing a bit of ridicule: "But the upper position, you brothers can't do it, if you want to keep me, I'm afraid you will have to pay a price!" ”
"You can try it!" Xu Bai said slowly: "If you want to hear the truth now, is it so difficult?" ”
"I don't want to try!" Zhao Huchen's face was solemn, and he said: "I tried this time, my Zhao family's hope for revival, but it was completely cut off, I can't hide it, the moment I saw your cloud talisman, what I thought of was that after so many years, I finally waited for this opportunity!" ”
"Oh?" Xu Bai's face showed a little interested: "Go on!" ”
"I, Zhao Huchen, am a noble son, the pillar of the court, my Zhao family is loyal to the court, one after another, and I don't ask the court to praise me, but the court should never throw my Zhao family away like a used rag!"
Zhao Huchen sneered: "Your Majesty is unfair, the court is unfair!" The title of my Zhao family was earned by the ancestors with their lives, because the main branch of the Zhao family is gone, this title is gone, and my Zhao family is not dead! ”
"You're talking about today, not our majesty!" Xu Bai reminded.
"That's right, I said that it is today, the Emperor is my dynasty, if the Emperor is not in prison, how can he tolerate the imperial court treating us bloody and loyal people like this!"
"So, what you want is justice!" Xu Bai asked: "You have seen my Yunfu, and you feel that you have this opportunity to return to justice!?" ”
"Every word is from the bottom of my heart!" Zhao Huchen nodded fiercely: "The Emperor Taishang must re-ascend to the great treasure, and my Zhao family can have a bright future!" ”
"There are many difficulties during this period, and you may not be able to live the day when the Emperor Taishang will regain the treasure!" Xu Bai glanced at it: "If you die before this, wouldn't you be very wronged!" ”
"The big husband has something to do, and he doesn't do something!" Zhao Huchen said in a loud voice: "Since I am fortunate to be in the hidden guard, Gongwei Your Majesty, it is naturally incumbent, if I look forward and backward and be ungrateful, even if I die, what face do I have to meet the ancestors of my Zhao family!" If you are lucky enough not to die, after the matter is completed, how can the Emperor Taishang lose a share of my Zhao family and my Zhao Huchen! ”
