Chapter 213: Kinship
On the walls of Heilan City, the richly dressed Wanyan Zhuntai stood facing the snowy plain.
A man came behind him, stood still with his fists clenched, and called: "Second prince!" ”
Wanyan Zhuntai was surprised, turned his head and said, "Why did you come back?" ”
An apologetic look appeared on the man's cold face: "Back to the second prince, the person ...... Lose someone! ”
"Rubbish! You can't do such a small thing! Wanyan Zhuntai scolded, his eyes were gloomy, "Father Khan asked me to spy on Helian Che, and now that people have been lost by you, how can I explain to my father Khan?" ”
After thinking for a moment, the man added: "Helian Che is cunning, although he lost him near a blacksmith shop, but his subordinates overheard their conversation in the blacksmith shop, Helianche asked the blacksmith how to make the horses and chariots with heavy loads sail smoothly across the sand sea, and the blacksmith replied that the sand is the sea, and the boat sails on the sea. Then they came out of the blacksmith shop, and the two of them muttered something about it, but because the distance was too far, the subordinates only vaguely heard about the Qur'ans and firearms, but did not fully hear them...... However, his subordinates guessed that Helian Che's move was probably to deal with the siege of the Gulan army. ”
"Cope...... The Guran army is attacking the city? Wanyan Zhuntai had an expression of hearing the joke, and raised the corners of his mouth to sneer contemptuously, "It seems that this Helian Che is just like this, it's just a useless rat guts!" The Gulan army was too scared to go out by us, how could they have the courage to attack the city? Now, as long as my Blackwater warriors go out of the city in three days to pursue them and catch them off guard, this war will be over, and I will be the hero who saved Blackwater from danger. Looking back at the Western Dynasty, although we sent troops to guard our city gate, we actually did not send a single soldier, and we sincerely asked for help. Since then, our Heishui has straightened our backs, and we no longer have to condescend and look up to others. ”
Thinking of the sweat position that was at his fingertips after the success of the First World War, Wanyan Zhuntai's mediocre face revealed deep greed.
As for his standard theory of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, the man behind him did not answer.
The two of them stood like this.
Half an hour later, there was a sudden commotion under the city walls.
"As I said, I'm here to deliver medicine, not some unscrupulous traders! Are you unreasonable? ”
The child's immature voice was tinged with anger.
After Yan Zhuntai retracted his face, he slowly paced to the side of the city wall near Heilan City, his head poked out from between the battlements, and looked down.
I saw a child dressed as a Western Dynasty man carrying a big burden, and was stopped at the foot of the city wall by two black sailors, looking angry and anxious.
"I can't tell you clearly, let me see our Western Dynasty army!"
If you say that, you have to break in.
Of course, the black sailor refused to let him, and overthrew the child to the ground with a little effort: "Stinky boy, hurry up and get out of me!" Don't ask what kind of place this is, can you just break into it casually? ”
The child fell, his immature face was slightly distorted, he gasped in pain, got up from the ground, looked at his palms that had rubbed the skin, and his eyes contained unwilling emotions.
When he looked at the Black Sailor again, the donkey's temper came up.
"You let me in! Let me in! ”
This time, the child who wanted to rush to the post again was directly lifted up as a chicken by the black sailor, and sneered: "I don't know whether to live or die, I just let you live and you don't go!" Now Lao Tzu will send you to the dungeon of Heilan City, where the entire Heishui is famous for the ghost domain of Xudu, in which lies the hellish black fox that specializes in cannibalism, you kid is waiting to die! ”
There is no lack of scaring elements in what the Black Sailor said.
The child didn't buy it, but retaliated and spat at the black sailor in the face, jokingly: "Phew, unfilial son!" What about scaring your dad? ”
With a chill on his face, the black sailor's fingers holding the child's back collar suddenly loosened, wiped the face of the spitting star, and suddenly roared angrily: "Look for death!" ”
He raised the spear in his hand and threw it at the child's head.
At the last moment, a shout came from the stone steps from the height of the city wall: "Stop! ”
The black sailor holding the spear stopped moving, and when he saw that the person who came down from the winding stairs was Wanyan Zhuntai, he immediately knelt on the ground and called: "Second prince!" ”
"Hmm!" Wanyan Zhuntai's footsteps stopped in the middle of the road, so that everyone below could only look up at him.
At this time, the man behind him leaned into his ear, as if to say something.
Wanyan Zhuntai looked at the child, his eyes were shining, and he opened his lips and whispered to himself: "It turned out to be the sibling brother of the girl that my third brother brought back from the Western Dynasty!" That's a lot of fun! ”
After that, he said to Ye Cheng: "Little brother, what are you doing here?" ”
Ye Cheng raised his head and looked at Wanyan Zhuntai with a scheming and treacherous smile on his face, only feeling that this person was gloomy, and he didn't have a good impression of him in his heart, so he said angrily: "Send talisman medicine to the army of the Western Dynasty!" ”
"Oh?" Wanyan Zhuntai raised his eyebrows, thinking about something, and immediately said to the black sailor who stopped in front of Ye Cheng: "Little brother is also a good intention, the friendly troops of the Western Dynasty have not spoken, we will refuse for others first, this matter spreads, I am afraid that we Heishui people are rude and rude, so isn't it ridiculous and generous?" Hurry up and ask the little brother to go to my mansion to meet the general of the friendly army of the Western Dynasty! ”
"Second Prince?" The black sailor was stupid, and he didn't understand what Wanyan Zhuntai meant, when did the general of the Western Dynasty go to the second prince's mansion?
Fortunately, the man behind Yan Zhuntai was a shrewd man, and with a look, the black sailor reacted, and the two of them captured Ye Cheng on the left and right.
"What do you do? Let me go! Let go! ”
The child was startled, and then realized that something was wrong, and struggled with his arms, but even so, his fists were outmatched by his four hands, and he was finally forcibly dragged away in the angry shouts.
Wanyan Juntai showed a treacherous smile: "Go, go and give a gift to my good royal brother!" Tell him that the confidante of the Western Dynasty that her sibling brother was treated as a Gulan by Helian Che and imprisoned, and if she wanted to save him, she would come to the Western Dynasty army garrison in person. ”
"Second Prince......" The man looked suspicious, "Why don't you just tell the woman that the third prince sent someone to imprison her?" In this way, the two of them will inevitably turn against each other, and let her go to the garrison of the Western Dynasty army, is this too explicit? A discerning person can know at a glance that it is a ......" trap.
The man didn't finish speaking, but just looked at Wan Yan Juntai worriedly.
"You know what?" sneered, "Do you think that if you say that people are caught by Yan Yan, then the woman will believe it?" Don't forget, she was brought by Wanyan Naqi, Wanyan Naqi has no reason to do that, my purpose is to trick that woman out, torture her first, and then kill her! Just imagine, wouldn't it be interesting to kill the woman who Wanyan Naqi had taken a fancy to and brought back from thousands of miles away, and send the corpse to the concubine's garden, and tease my lovely brother Wang, and look at his eclipsed face? ”
Wanyan Zhuntai's eyes were full of evil, and he laughed out loud.
In the concubine's garden.
Le Ya went to find Ye Cheng with great interest, originally a big cook, and asked him what he wanted to eat at night, and planned to make it for him by himself.
But when he arrived at Ye Cheng's house, he found that it was empty.
"Strange, where did you go?" Leya wondered.
When I walked out of the house, I happened to see Shu Shu, who was reluctant to walk towards the wing room with a stove.
The two collided.
Glancing at the back of Shu Shu's gauze-wrapped hand, a trace of embarrassment flashed on Le Ya's face, and she laughed and said, "Miss Shu Shu ......"
Shu Shu, who was holding the stove, deliberately raised his chin, made a proud look, and snorted coldly, wanting to leave.
"Wait, Miss Shushu, I have something to ask you!" Le Ya hurriedly retained.
Although Shu Shu was cold and arrogant on his face, he still didn't continue to walk, turned his head, and deliberately said, "What's the matter?" ”
"Do you know, where did Ye Cheng go?"
Obviously, Shu Shu felt very unfamiliar with the name in her mouth, and looked puzzled.
Le Ya hurriedly pointed to the house where Ye Cheng lived temporarily: "It's the child who lives here." ”
Shu Shu twisted his eyebrows and thought seriously: "I don't know if I live here, but I've seen one child!" ”
"Where did he go?" Le Ya was worried, and grabbed Shu Shu's hand in excitement.
Shu Shu was a little unaccustomed to her actions, and pulled his hand out: "When I went back to the other garden, I saw him carrying a big bag of things and leaving!" ”
"Gone?!" Leya Hodi raised his voice.
Shu Shu, who didn't know why, was startled.
Then I saw the woman turn around anxiously, went into the house and rummaged for a long time, and when she came out again, her face was slightly pale, as if she had lost her soul: "This kid, he said that he would send some healing medicine to the soldiers of the Western Dynasty, he wouldn't really go, right?" ”
"Just go! Isn't it just a medicine? What's there to make a fuss about? Shu Shu raised his eyebrows, not quite understanding her reaction.
"He's still a kid!" Le Ya expressed excitement, "At this time, the two states are at war, and these unprovoked friendships are the most taboo!" God knows what those Western soldiers will do to him! If he said that he was worried about his compatriots, so he brought some healing medicine, what if he was suspected of being a suspicious person by the Western Dynasty soldiers? After all, who would believe in a child's sincerity? What if they take him and beat him into a beating? No, I've got to get him back! ”
"Hey......" Shu Shu was at a loss, and wanted to stop her, but she could only watch Le Ya hurriedly walk in front of her.
Fortunately, at this moment, the mother-in-law who was cleaning the courtyard of the wing room came over and said to Shushu: "Miss, what do you see here?" I just found it at the door of the wing! ”
Hearing this, Le Ya's departing footsteps stopped, and she turned around and walked back.
Shu Shu glanced at Le Ya, who had a solemn look in his eyes, put down the stove, reached out and took a copper scroll only the thickness of his little thumb from his mother-in-law's hand, and asked, "Amu still remembers who has entered the courtyard of the wing?" ”
"Not anymore but me!" The mother-in-law didn't think twice.
The two of them had a number in their hearts, if it wasn't for the thief shouting to catch the thief, someone would have thrown things in while she wasn't paying attention.
Shu Shu wanted to pull the scroll open, but seeing Le Ya's eager eyes, he handed the scroll to her again.
Le Ya, who had no choice but to open the scroll, didn't know the words of the Black Water people, so she had to ask Shu Shu for help.
Shu Shu is also a shrewd person, and after retiring from his mother-in-law, he read aloud the contents of the scroll: "Your brother is in the hands of Helian Che, I am afraid that my life is in danger, if you want to keep him safe, come to the Western Dynasty station quickly!" Remember! If you want your brother to be safe, come alone! ”
"Helian Che?" Le Ya's eyes widened in surprise, and then lowered her eyes, as if whispering: "Why is he ......?"
After thinking about it quickly, I felt: No, judging from the content of the letter, let Ye Lingyi go to the station of the Western Dynasty soldiers alone, this is obviously a trap for others to drill! However, unlike ordinary traps, Ye Cheng is now in the hands of the other party, and if you want to save him, you must enter the game!
What to do?
Le Ya ran out of ideas for a while.
Shu Shu also realized the seriousness of the matter and asked Le Ya: "Otherwise, I'll accompany you?" ”
Le Ya didn't answer, and her eyes were messy.
After a while, his eyes finally became firm.
That's it, since she regards the Ye sisters and brothers as her relatives, even if it is the Longtan Tiger's Den, why should she go on a journey for them?
"No need, I can do it myself! It's just this thing...... Please, don't tell Ling Yi! If I don't come back, I will only let her know that Ye Cheng is gone! I don't need to talk about it anymore! ”
