Volume 2 Song of the Dynasty Chapter 84 Shi Shifan
The second prince was in the west of the city to extend the gate, because he felt that Wan'an Temple was the closest to here, and it was contrary to Taicang Mountain, Li Xiao was not a fool, and his performance at the birthday banquet proved this, so he chose here.
The three princes are not confined to one place, the Qixia Sect in the south of the city sent Dou Bi to wait, of course, Dou Bi met people from Taixue in the south of the city, it doesn't matter if this is not the same, most of these people are coming for the name of Li Xiao's poem, which is not the same as their purpose. However, there was a couple of people in the south of the city, but they were waiting in the distance and did not appear on the street.
Yu Kangzhi, when he was facing the left, the momentum was weak, so he naturally would not let go of this opportunity, but unfortunately, Li Xiao did not appear in the south of the city. Of course, it did not appear in the east of the city, so that the preparations of the three princes in Yanxingmen were in vain.
Li Xiao is a man who plays cards out of common sense, everyone thinks he knows what he is in, and everyone is waiting in the rest of the city. There are a total of twelve gates out of the city in Jingshi City, three of which are on the edge of the imperial city, and the rest of the three gates in the east, west and south, and there are people waiting in each place. The spies have reported that Li Xiao did not appear at any of the city gates, which can't help but make people wonder where this person has gone and where he will go out of the city.
The third prince looked at Zhou Shenjun, who slowly walked down from the carriage, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, raised the jade cup and took a sip, and asked unhurriedly: "Where did Li Xiao go?" ”
Zhou Senjun hugged his fists and arched his hands, the other party was the prince, and being able to condescend to Li Xiao in this place is enough to show that he attaches great importance to Li Xiao, and Zhou Senjun is also happy about this, but at the same time, he can't help but worry that Li Xiao's behavior has lost the face of the prince, and he seems to be a little bolder. He tried to hold back his trembling heart, excited hands, and replied, "Returning to His Royal Highness, Li Gongzi is in the city." ”
"Naturally, the king knows, and says, Where is he?" The third prince put down the jade cup and said, there was no trace of impatience on his good-looking face. Li Xiao is a different person, so he will do the opposite, waiting for him in Dongcheng, who knows that he didn't appear at any of the city gates, of course, this is more interesting, if it is easy to be waited for, then it will not be a person valued by the emperor.
"This ......" Zhou Shu stopped talking, not daring to say it. The bottom seven rank joined the army opposite a dignified prince, it was impossible not to be nervous.
"Say!"
Zhou Senjun subconsciously took a step back, his fist-hugging hand trembled slightly, he took a breath of cold air, and said: "Little one doesn't know, Gongzi only asked me to go out first to arrange everything, and didn't tell where I went." ”
This is Li Xiao's confession, if he says that he has left, it is not to give face to the third prince, and it is unrealistic, since Li Xiao left the palace yesterday, his whereabouts have been watched by many parties, how can he go out of the city. So it can only be said that it is in the city, after all, the emperor only asked him to plant peppers today, and did not say that he would plant them himself. Of course, only he can plant peppers, and he has to do it himself, pepper seeds are unique, and if he can't plant them, but if he can't plant them, then it's a big problem.
If they are still in the city, then it will be fine, they have not left the city yet, and if they have not waited, it is their own reason, it is not an offense, and these people can't have a seizure because of this.
Sure enough, the third prince smiled, put on the boots on the side and stood up, then waved his hand, signaling the subordinates on both sides to clean up the furnishings in the middle of the road. He walked to the carriage of the palace with his hands, turned his back to Zhou Shuyi, and said, "Today, this king has not waited, and it has nothing to do with Gongzi Li." For this king, he brought a message to Li Gongzi, and said: Li Gongzi has to rely on multiple people in the Beijing Division, and one person is always weak. ”
With that, the third prince turned over and got into the carriage and left quickly. Since Li Xiao is no longer here, there is no need for him to continue to wait, in a few hours, the sky will be completely hot, and it is estimated that those who are still waiting will also leave one after another.
"So that Dou Dianjun can come back." He finally gave a command to his subordinates, and then he was silent.
The subordinate responded and hurried towards the southern city. It was not complicated to pack up the furnishings in the middle of the road, and more than a dozen subordinates quickly finished packing up and left one after another. Looking at the people who left the Xianwang Mansion, Zhou Shuyi and the rest of the Jingzhao Yin Mansion officials breathed a sigh of relief.
The prince's aura is too powerful, especially the third prince, who has a trace of majesty early.
"Let's go, get there early, we can get ready." Zhou Shu looked out of the city, his face softened.
…… All parties are also wondering, where Li Xiao went, there were people waiting at the nine gates out of the city, but none of them waited for Li Xiao to appear. The third prince Xianwang had already left, and Dou Bi, the deputy pawn of the Xianwang Mansion, did not continue to wait, and turned to leave. The subordinates of several ministers also evacuated, but the talented people who were too learned were still waiting in place.
Where did Li Xiao go?
Few people know, except for the Huang Dama tea stall in the east of the city. No one thought that Li Xiao, who they were all waiting for, would be leisurely in the tea stall at this time, without the slightest hint of nervousness.
"Childe, except for those scholars from Taixue, the rest of the people have already withdrawn, can we ......" Li Xiao sat in the corner of the tea stall, slowly drinking the "Mulian Tofu" in front of him, listening to the report of the official of the Jingzhao Yin Mansion beside him.
He didn't like the term "adult", it sounded very awkward, and he always felt that he was very old, although he was really old. Or "Childe" sounds good and sounds comfortable.
"These scholars have a bit of perseverance." Li Xiao put down the porcelain bowl, thought for a moment, and then said: "But those people shouldn't leave so easily, and they are probably hiding in some places to rest." ”
This is their last chance, Rao is the scorching sun, and they will not leave so easily, there are many restaurants on the way to the nine city gates where they can rest and feast. He thought for a while, glanced at Chu Chu, who was excitedly settling accounts at the wooden counter, and asked, "Chu Chu, are you going?" If you don't go, you'll be at Aunt Huang's place these days, or go to Yuxian Residence? ”
Since the last time they left from Yuxianju, Yuxian'er has sent people many times, and it seems that she has taken a fancy to herself, a little girl she bought from Yizhou. Of course, Li Xiao did not refuse, the strength of Yuxianju is definitely not what is revealed now, if you can really catch the line of Yuxianju, it will not be a good thing. However, he was not at ease to let the little girl go to the Jade Immortal Residence alone. At this time, he asked Chu Chu where he was willing to go, if he wanted to go to the Jade Immortal Residence, then he would go.
The little girl hurriedly put down the pen in her hand, raised her head to look at Li Xiao, and said, "Chu Chu will go wherever the young master goes, Chu Chu will follow the young master." ”
It's really like this, the little girl's words moved him for a while, and he didn't raise the little girl in vain. Li Xiao was slightly moved, and then said to the official who had just spoken: "In that case, you take Chu Chu over first, and I will come later." ”
He said to Chu Chu, blocking what the little girl was about to say: "You go first, be obedient, young master, I will come immediately." ”
The little girl had no choice but to get into the carriage and leave.
Today, for some reason, Aunt Huang's tea stall is much more deserted than in the past, and no one comes in to drink "tofu".
Gao Changyu was still busy in the backyard, and he didn't know why, after the birthday banquet, he always felt that he found that His Royal Highness the county lord seemed to be deliberately alienated, and always avoided him intentionally or unintentionally. I don't want to think about it, maybe it's the days of the woman every month. I didn't have time to think about it, and I had to plan a route out of town.
This is ordered to leave the city, and it is not to do something that no one does to see people, and it has to hide.
"I didn't expect that hundreds of people in the city could find Li Gongzi who was dead and alive, and he was here." Outside the tea stall, a person pushed a wheelchair and slowly drove towards Li Xiao.
It was the man in the wheelchair who spoke. This person Li Xiao had never seen it, but that person gave him a sense of danger and was very disgusted. It was only when I got closer that I could see the wheelchair and the man in the wheelchair.
The wheelchair is very luxurious, the material used is gold silk nanmu, several handles are jade, there are several circles of gold wire inlaid on it, and there are more than a dozen decorations that are gorgeous and complex. As for the man in the wheelchair, it was clear that he was lame on one leg and blind in one eye. At the age of twenty-seven or eighteen, his body is a little fat, but his eyes make people look shuddering, and a black dress is close to his body, the same as his black eyes, which makes people unable to see through what he is thinking. He kept smiling, holding his cheek with one hand, and looked at Li Xiao with interest.
Such people are dangerous. Compared with talking to such a person, Li Xiao is more willing to get along with Lu Yunlu.
"Introduce yourself." The wheelchair stopped steadily in front of Li Xiao, and consciously stepped aside behind him, his hands in front of him, silent, as if he had never appeared.
This man is not simple either!
"Shi Shifan."
"Li Xiao." Li Xiao replied lightly, looking at Shi Shifan in front of him vigilantly. He searched in his mind for Shi Shifan, but found that he didn't know him.
"Don't think about it, it's the first time we've met." The corners of Shi Shifan's mouth rose slightly, and he waved one hand at will.
Usually, he doesn't like crutches and wheelchairs, but today's situation is different, Aunt Huang's tea stall is not easy to walk, so he took a wheelchair. And the person behind him is the doorman of the mansion and the number one master in the mansion, in the early stage of the nine grades, it is rare in the world.
Li Xiao's body shrank back a little. It was very uncomfortable, and from the moment this person appeared, there was a feeling of uneasiness all over his body. He tensed his nerves and asked, "I don't know what happened to this son?" ”
Shi Shifan laughed, glanced at the "tofu" in front of Li Xiao, and sighed in disgust: "Childe is also a little poet fairy, how can you eat such a thing on the street, if you don't have this son as the east, please go to Penglai Xianju for a meal?" ”
"Thank you, but I still have something to do today, so I'm not with you." Li Xiao arched his hand and was about to get up and leave.
Shi Shifan didn't stop him, he leaned back, looked leisurely, and said lightly: "The one who came from Suzhou with you...... Kamata was killed by me. ”
