(150) Wanhua River Lantern Shines on the Afterimage (44)
"You didn't come to Qi Country as a 'sheep into the tiger', why did he become a 'sheep into the tiger'?" Du Rong looked at me amusedly.
I rolled my eyes away and muttered, but I couldn't answer him.
"Isn't this also a good thing for him who is still imprisoned in the Forbidden Word Pavilion?" Du Rong looked at me and said.
I've thought of this for a long time, but it's just ......
"No, I can't be assured of his safety." I resolutely rejected this matter, "I will go to see Emperor Qi tomorrow, I will find a way to make him change his mind, if not, it is a big deal that this mission will be regarded as a futile, I don't care." ”
"Aren't you afraid that the people of the Pei Party will seize this point and pull you into the water?"
I straightened my back and put on a serious face, "If they really have the courage, I will let them see what it means to be 'better to live than to die'." ”
Du Rong seemed to smile, but when I looked closely, his expression was very calm.
"He's the only one, you always want to protect ...... carefully"
His voice was soft and like a sigh, but I could hear it clearly.
Because we're always so close.
"When I do things for him, I naturally have to take his life very seriously." I put it this way.
Du Rong glanced at me lightly, not believing my words, nor not believing my words.
Half-truths, that's a habit that both I and he have.
"You'd better think again, maybe he wants you to do the same." After Du Rong said this, he didn't persuade me anymore, but handed me a letter.
"This is what you asked me to help you investigate last time, put it away, and take a look at it when you go back to the inn."
After Du Rong finished explaining, he left alone.
The shadows of the trees are verdant, and the time is silent.
I grabbed the envelope in my hand, and as soon as my eyes went out, I turned around and walked towards the Nine Kite Pavilion.
When Yun Sheng and Bai Zhi came back together, it was already very late, and the sunset was gradually shrouded in light, and only a few scattered clouds were still wandering leisurely at the intersection of heaven and earth, not floating or sinking.
"Here you go." Bai Zhi also placed a scroll on the stone table in front of me.
I was originally drinking tea, but after seeing what Bai Zhi had brought back, I was stunned.
"It's really hard to find this thing, Brother Bai and I almost turned Yong'an Guan over, but I didn't expect it to be so casually placed on a low table in an attic, this Yong'an Guan is really strange." As soon as Yun Sheng saw me, he crackled and told all the process of him and Bai Zhihuan's search for books, and at the end he couldn't help but complain, "In the future, don't look for me anymore for such laborious errands." ”
Bai Zhi also noticed my strangeness, and he wanted to say something, but I stopped him first.
Picking up the dark blue volume, I stared at it silently for a moment, then suddenly put it back again.
"Let's go down." I walked out of the pavilion, my voice was faint, and I couldn't hear the emotion.
Yun Sheng saw that I was acting strangely, although he didn't want to ask, but he always felt itchy, and finally he couldn't help but say, "Don't adults take this book away?" ”
I waved my hand, "If you want it, take it." ”
Of course, Yun Sheng didn't take that book to read history, but this only made his curiosity even heavier.
"Such an important thing is so casually placed on a low table in an attic, my lord, who do you think put it?" Yun Sheng walked quickly to me and pestered me unrelentingly to ask.
I glanced at him and quickened my pace towards the outside of the temple.
"I don't know, I'm not an immortal!"
"My lord is in my heart, but he is a fairy-like character." Yun Sheng smiled, "Although you can't really do fortune telling, maybe you really can." ”
“......”
"Know, shut his mouth for me!"
Bai Zhi also looked at us, didn't say anything, and simply walked around us and walked to the front.
I felt like my heart was weeping in the wind.
What kind of brain disease did I make, I left Xiaohu in Yong'an County and took him with me, and now I don't even have anyone to listen to me!
"My lord, are you going back to Qinguo?" Fortunately, Yun Sheng didn't continue to dwell on that issue, and when he saw that my face changed and changed, he diverted the topic.
I nodded, "Hmm." ”
"When exactly? I'll have to get ready to see you off. ”
"Three days later."
"What time will it be in three days?"
"When the time comes."
Yun Sheng paused, seeming a little surprised.
"So early?"
"Hmm."
"It's too much of a stretch for you to wait."
"I just can't wait."
"......" is the Academy
Yun Sheng looked at me speechlessly, "Anyway, you can be tactful." ”
I spread my hands, "Do I need to be tactful to you?" You're the person I trust the most. ”
“......”
At this time, Yun Sheng finally deeply understood what it meant to 'treat others in the way of others'.
"It's not a good habit to be careful." Yun Sheng replied to me unwillingly.
"yes." I nodded approvingly, "So, Brother Yun, don't worry about me." ”
“......”
Yun Sheng decided that if it was not necessary in the future, he would never say another word to the person next to him.
He's just looking for abuse.
Yong'an Mountain is not high, and the way down the mountain is much easier than going up, and in less than an hour, we arrived at the foot of the mountain. After getting into the carriage, we went back to Biancheng, first sent Yunsheng to the inn, and then Bai Zhi and I returned to the inn.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw Chen Kun standing quietly by the window with a long sword in his hand.
He seemed to have been waiting for us for a long time, or rather, when Bai Zhi and I were still forced out, Chen Kun rushed to the inn.
"Your Excellency is back?" Chen Kun turned his head to look at me, but his face was very solemn.
Bai Zhi was still in front of me, and his hands clenched his sword.
I glanced at Bai Zhi and asked him not to act rashly, and then walked out from behind him.
"General Chen." I arched my hand to him, "General Chen came to find his true appearance today, what is the so-called matter?" ”
Chen Kun walked up to me, his eyes were slightly cold, "Where did Lord Shen Xiang go this day?" ”
I avoided his gaze, waved Bai Zhihuan to step back, and then found a random place to sit down.
"Why, where is the prime minister, do you have to ask the general for instructions?"
Chen Kun's face was not very good, but his face was quite respectful, and after hearing my cold questioning, he tried to relax his expression, but it obviously had no effect.
"Your Excellency is the most expensive guest of my Qi Kingdom, and we should protect your safety. Today, the Lord took Brother Bai out alone, if there is any danger, how can we explain to Your Majesty? ”
"General Chen's painstaking intentions are naturally very clear." I looked at him with a smile, "Don't worry, unless His Majesty Emperor Qi summons me, I will never step out of this inn in the future." ”
Chen Kun was surprised for a moment, but he quickly suppressed his expression.
Whatever I mean, he just wants me to be within his watch, and the rest has nothing to do with him.
"I can't thank you enough for being so considerate of us." Chen Kun said politely, then opened the door and prepared to go out, but when he came to the door, he looked back at me again, "The assassination of the adult has already been a little eyebrows, do you want to go and see the prisoner in person?" ”
I reached for a cup, lifted the teapot and poured some herbal tea.
"Now that we have eyebrows, we are waiting for the good news from General Chen."
Chen Kun squinted at me for a while and went out.
I took a sip of the herbal tea, and the chill instantly soaked my heart and lungs.
After staying quietly in the guest house for two days, Emperor Qi finally ordered to summon me, I sorted out my clothes, and took Bai Zhi back into the palace.
This time it was not in the Imperial Study, nor on the Golden Luang Palace, but in a large hunting ground.
There were many officials who came, large and small, some I had seen and some I had heard, and even Wei Ren, who had not seen him for many days, appeared on the hunting grounds.
But there is no shadow of Gu Yuancheng here.
"My Daqi's men all love this riding and archery technique, I wonder if Shen is a little interested in this?" Emperor Qi looked at me gently, as if he would not force me to be forced whether I was interested or not.
"I used to learn some in the academy, but after so many years, I almost forgot about it." I replied respectfully.
"Not only have I learned some, but I don't want to practice my skills on the field, and I have all the regrets of many years." Emperor Qi smiled at me, as if it was really just a proposal, a gentle and harmless proposal.
But I know I don't have a choice.
"Yes." I agreed.
After changing into a convenient riding outfit, I rolled over and got on the steed that the guards had brought me.
The hunt soon began, and I rushed into the hunting grounds with the crowd.
The hunting grounds of Qi are much larger than those of Qin Guo, which loves Qin chess, and I don't want to spin around without a head, so I hit my horse into a relatively few dense forests.
There are very few prey in this forest, and even if there are, they are just some small prey such as hares and pheasants, and I am afraid that if I go out with these prey later, I will have to wait for the ridicule of the ministers.
But I love it here.
There are few prey, few people, and it is very quiet.
No one will notice this, and I don't have to pay attention to others.
"Why don't you do it yet? My patience has never been very good. "I laughed on my horse, hunting in the cool breeze, and there was an indescribable comfort.
It's still the right temperature in the forest, it's like outside, the sun is very big.
The masked man in black appeared, three layers inside and three layers outside, surrounding me tightly, and the dazzling sword light shot directly into the human eye, and I couldn't help but squint my eyes slightly.
It's not someone from the Blood Alliance, I've guessed it a long time ago.
I couldn't tell if I shot the arrow first, or if the masked men stabbed me first, but in short, what flashed in front of my eyes was either a sword or a flying blood.
