Chapter 140: Departure
Early the next morning, Shan Zhuokun got up early. After washing, he first woke up Li Zhifeng, who had been resting in the next room the night before. Afterwards, the two came to the courtyard in front of them and visited Yu Chi Baolin's situation with concern.
At this moment, Yu Chi Baolin had already woken up, leaning on the head of the bed, holding a silver bowl in his hand, while lowering his head and slowly drinking rock sugar bird's nest porridge, while listening to the housekeeper standing on the ground in front of him tell about the situation when he came back.
After a while, after the housekeeper finished speaking, Yu Chi Baolin suddenly raised his head, glared at his eyes and said:
"Oh? General Ben is like a drunkard, and it is really embarrassing. ”
Although he is a martial artist, he also wants to save face. That kind of mud-like posture, let alone others, I can't accept it in the first place.
"Young General, don't worry, there was no one around at that time, except for the four palanquin men, Master Shan was present." The housekeeper knew Wei Chi Baolin's worries, so he said bluntly, "The servants have already paid silver to those palanquin men as hush money, if they really tell this matter, it will be a dead end at that time." As for the single adult......"
When the housekeeper said this, his words were suddenly interrupted by Yu Chi Baolin.
"Master Shan is by no means the kind of person who has many mouths and many tongues, and this general still knows this. Alright, you can step back first. Remember, don't bring this up to anyone again. ”
The butler clenched his fists in both hands, respectfully complied, and quickly retreated.
Yu Chi Baolin got up and came to the table, put the porridge bowl on it casually, and sat down on the Eight Immortals chair next to him, looking at the front fixedly.
Looking at yesterday's situation, the emperor has already used Shan Zhuokun as a minister for reuse. In the future, I have to work hard to build a good relationship with him, and only in this way can I ensure a greater promotion.
Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of crisp footsteps outside. Yu Chi Baolin quickly calmed down, got up and came to the open door, looked in front of him, and saw Shan Zhuokun walking towards him quickly, followed by Li Zhifeng with a sleepy face.
After a while, the two came to the door, and saw that Yu Chi Baolin was already waiting here, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"After resting for the night, General Wei Chi is in much better condition." Shan Zhuokun looked up and down for a moment, and said with a smile, "Then brother can rest assured." ”
Yu Chi Baolin clasped his hands into fists, gave a deep salute to Shan Zhuokun, and said gratefully:
"Thanks to the immortal who sent General Ben back to the mansion last night, otherwise, based on my state at the time, I am afraid that there will be a bigger joke."
When Shan Zhuokun heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and comforted: "You and my brother, you don't have to be so polite." By the way, General Wei Chi, you don't just want to talk to us through the door. ”
Yu Chi Baolin was reminded by him, hurriedly leaned to the side, and said with a smile: "No, no, then how can I do it?" Come, Shangxian, little lord, come in. ”
Shan Zhuokun and Li Zhifeng glanced at each other, and walked into the door before and after. Under the guidance of Yu Chi Baolin, they came to the table and sat down.
Yu Chi Baolin lifted the teapot on the table and poured tea into the cups in front of the three of them. After putting the teapot back in its place, he said:
"Shangxian, looking at the situation last night, the emperor should be planning to reuse you. If you really develop in the future, don't forget my brother. ”
Shan Zhuokun had just picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and when he heard this, he immediately let out a series of violent coughs.
Li Zhifeng saw that his face was flushed, and hurriedly came behind him and slapped him on the back. This time I choked very badly, and it took a long time to get over.
"General Wei Chi, don't make fun of me. Although I am a chicken, I am definitely not a fighter in a rooster, and I don't have such a strong competitive spirit at all, and I just want to be a rich and idle idler in this life. ”
Shan Zhuokun seriously defended himself,
"What happened last night was just an accident, don't take it too seriously."
Li Zhifeng looked left and right, although she couldn't understand the conversation between Shan Zhuokun and Yu Chi Baolin, but with a woman's intuition, she could also guess that something big must have happened at the banquet last night.
"How can it be called an accident?" Yu Chi Baolin shook his head and persuaded, "To be honest, Shangxian can be reused by the emperor, and it is too late for General Ben and King Han to be happy." By the way, last night, the emperor said that you were going to Putuo today? ”
Shan Zhuokun didn't continue to speak, just nodded.
"When does the immortal plan to leave? General Ben happens to have something to do these days, but he will also pick out some elite guards to accompany you. ”
Shan Zhuokun smiled and stretched out his hand to pat Yu Chi Baolin's shoulder, and said gratefully:
"Thank you General Wei Chi for your concern, but you don't have to worry about this trivial matter. After breakfast later, I will go to Putuo with the county lord of Zhifeng. But this time, Brother is not going to use the Blue Bone Sword to fly the sword, you just need to help me pick out two sweaty and bloody BMWs with good foot strength. ”
When Yu Chi Baolin heard this, he immediately stroked his palms and laughed: "General Ben thought that the immortal had some reluctant request, but it turned out to be like this. Well, I can ask the stables to bring the horses at this moment. ”
With that, the three of them looked at each other and smiled.
After breakfast, Shan Zhuokun and Li Zhifeng came to the gate of the General's Mansion under the send-off of Yu Chi Baolin and others. At this moment, the stableman had brought two white tall horses, and under the sunlight, the horse's hair glowed with a slight golden light, as if a golden saddle had been installed, which was particularly dazzling.
"General Wei Chi, you can wait to go back." Shan Zhuokun smiled and turned to Yu Chi Baolin and said, "Don't worry, but in ten days and eight days, we will be back." Recently, because of the matter of the Western Turkic merchant group, Chang'an is afraid that it will not be peaceful, and you have to pay more attention to fortification. ”
Yu Chi Baolin nodded heavily, and said solemnly: "Rest assured, as the saying goes, eat the king's fortune, and worry about the king." Since I, Wei Chi Baolin, is a courtier of the Tang Dynasty, I should do my best. Although I have never been to Putuo, I have heard people say that it is an island surrounded by the sea on three sides. You'll have to be careful when you get here. ”
"Yes." Shan Zhuokun replied.
Subsequently, under the gaze of Yu Chi Baolin and others, he and Li Zhifeng both jumped on the horse's back and bumped the horse's belly with their calves. The two horses were startled at the same time, and each of them trotted forward with a smoke.
About half an hour later, Shan Zhuokun and Li Zhifeng left Chang'an City. After a long winter, the yellowed green leaves quietly turn green, and the grass blades become stretched, showing the vigorous vitality of nature everywhere.
Seeing that the scenery was so beautiful, the two of them tightened the reins in their hands and let the horses walk forward slowly.
"Although it is not yet the season for the flowers to become charming, this breeze can really make people slightly drunk."
At this moment, Shan Zhuokun's heart couldn't help but give birth to a warmth, and Wencai was bubbling out like a spring hidden deep in the mountain.
"Dengzi, the lord of this county thought that you hadn't studied, but you turned out to be so talented." Li Zhifeng quipped.
Shan Zhuokun looked at her sideways and straightened up proudly: "Of course, no matter what my brother says, he also graduated from Daben." ”
"Undergraduate?" Li Zhifeng said curiously, "The lord of this county has heard of the champion Tanhua, and this undergraduate has never heard of it. ”
When Shan Zhuokun heard her say this, he suddenly felt a little reckless, so he prevaricated nonsense:
"Yes, the degree of this university was originally from abroad, if it is placed here with you, it must be equivalent to a jinshi."
Li Zhifeng let out an 'ah', staring straight at Shan Zhuokun with both eyes, his eyes full of admiration.
She thought that this disciple was just a charlatan full of nonsense, but she didn't expect him to be so talented and had already been admitted to the Jinshi.
It seems that it is really a person who cannot be seen, and the sea water cannot be measured.
Shan Zhuokun knew that Li Zhifeng admired himself in his heart, and he couldn't help but be very proud. However, he was not in a hurry to break it, but just raised his head and said:
"Sa girl, to be honest, my brother is still very talented, you will know it slowly in the future. By the way, do you want to get to Putuo quickly? ”
"Yes."
Li Zhifeng was originally depressed by the bumps in the road, but when he heard this at the moment, he was immediately happy and immediately responded loudly.
