(12) The majesty of the ruler is embarrassed

"Didn't you hear what I said? The second prince returned to the city, are you blind, don't you recognize the flag? A guard in uniform shouted at the defenders.

"There is a strict inventory in Loulan City, and now they only look at the waist card." The soldier said, but in the end, he looked at the other party with a little weakness.

"I'll say it again, the second prince goes back to the city, dodge!"

Henna had already ridden over: "He's right, if you have a waist card, you can go straight now!" If not, please go back and get it! ”

As if they had seen a savior, the soldiers defending the city hurriedly saluted: "Commander!" ”

The quarrelsome guard asked, "Who are you?" ”

"Captain of the Guards, Henna! I arranged the waist card check! Henna returned.

"I haven't heard that Loulan has appointed a female commander!" The guard was dismissive.

"You weren't in Loulan, so naturally you haven't heard of it." Henna said as the thunder sounded, and it seemed that rain was about to fall.

"This is the second prince's return to the city, even if you are the commander of the guards, can you manage it?"

"You said that it was the second prince, naturally there is a corresponding waist card, you take it out, I dare not let it go!" Henna said.

"We came all the way and couldn't find it, but this banner is unique to our second prince."

"Let me ask you, Loulan walks into the city with a waist card, do you know this rule?"

"Of course I know."

"That's good, I have the rules in front of me, and I have to abide by them!" Henna snapped.

"You!" The guard raised his fist in anger.

"Don't be rude!" A person walked out of the sedan chair behind, and he thought that his subordinates could enter the city after dealing with a few words in the sedan chair, but he didn't expect it to be very complicated this time.

"Your Highness!" The guard hurriedly lowered his fist and said respectfully.

When Henna looked at it, she saw that the man was twenty years old, his face was as white as jade, his body was tall and thin, and his slightly raised eyebrows added a little majesty to his delicate countenance, but there was a bit of melancholy in his eyes, even if he was tired, he still could not hide the aura of glory.

"Girl, my waist card was lost during the trip, what else can I do to get into the city today?" The man asked, in a gentle tone.

Henna looked at him, and for some reason, she always felt that her face seemed to be slightly hot, and she had never been like this since she was a child.

"If you don't have a waist card, you can have a token that can be recognized, and bring it to the nearest government office to exchange the waist card before it can take you into the city." Henna replied.

The man pondered for a moment, then took off a ring from his hand and handed it over to the city guards who quickly rode to the nearest palace.

At this time, the thunder sounded one after another, and the heavy rain fell from the air without even hesitation, and even if he put on his clothes in an instant, he couldn't avoid getting wet.

The guard hurriedly put on the umbrella, covered the noble man beside him, and said, "It's better to go back to the sedan chair." ”

"No, I can't wait." The man smiled.

The soldiers guarding the city beside Henna also handed over the umbrella, and Henna said, "Give it to everyone." He dismounted and retreated to the edge of the city, but the rain was so heavy that Henna's clothes were already wet, and she stood in front of the horse, shielding herself as much as she could.

When the man saw it, he shouted, "I still have an extra umbrella." Then he said to the guard, "It's time to get on the courier!" The guard was reluctant to do so.

Henna was stunned: "No, no need. "I can't help but be grateful in my heart, and I'm really a polite person.

The rain was too heavy for a while, and the fog rose on the road, and in the haze, only the sound of a few horses could be heard, which seemed to be the figure of the soldiers defending the city who had just left. Ram was patrolling the city, and saw that the sky was not right, so he entered the government and chatted with the officials, and the soldiers came to ask about the visitor, Ram only looked at the ring, the kind of blue gem, the second brother in the whole country is unique, this is his mother to marry, passed on to his son when he died, extremely rare.

Ram didn't look at Henna either, and ran out of the city directly: "Second brother, you're back." ”

Henna said in her heart, it's really the second prince, this time it's over, and she will definitely be sued. Sure enough, Ram was wearing a robe borrowed from the Yamen, but he was still drenched a lot: "Henna, where do you have the audacity to stop my second brother!" ”

Henna said: "Where is the responsibility, what about the waist card?" ”

Ram held back a lot of fire, but even Henna didn't expect that when he went out of the yamen, he actually received the waist card in advance very well-behaved, and now he threw it to Henna: "Give it!" Henna sighed deeply, if he didn't wear a waist at this time, this time it would really not end well.

And Ram's second brother, Feida, had a calm smile on his face from beginning to end. When he entered the city, he still nodded slightly at Henna.

"Ram, that girl is really a guard!" Fei Da is back to his mother Gaochang this time, for a month, he was not in Loulan, he didn't expect to meet such a stunned female soldier as soon as he came back, how could anyone in Loulan dare to do this before!

"Second brother, you don't know, the big things in Loulan these days!" Ram said: "The Dayue clan sent the princess to marry her father, but she didn't expect to be assassinated in front of the palace, this stinky girl is not bad at kung fu and took down the assassin, so my father rewarded her and made her the head of the guards in the palace and responsible for teaching." ”

Feida was shocked when he heard this: "Assassin, he has never appeared before, but do you know where it is?" ”

"Uh." Ram paused and said, "Second brother, when you return to the city, you will be able to see that princess, don't say it, it's so beautiful." By the way, you brought me something when you went home this time! ”

"You're always in such a hurry, I'll give it to you and your eldest brother when you go back!" Feida replied, but he was relieved in his heart, Ram did not answer his question just now, there must be a reason for this.

"By the way, that stinky girl caused you to get drenched in the rain, so go to my fire first. It's late today, and tomorrow, see if I don't settle accounts with her! Ram was talking to himself, he didn't care, in fact, after a few fights, Ram already knew that his kung fu was 108,000 miles worse than Henna, and he would definitely suffer a loss when he fought, even if he brought all his guards, he would definitely suffer a loss.

Although the rain was heavy, it simply stopped, the sun came out again, and the two walked along the trail to the palace, Loulan Palace is not as big as the Central Plains Palace, and there are not so many concubines, but the layout in the palace is more luxurious, and there are more rooms. The king's bedchamber was close to the main hall for easy discussion, and the ladies' bedchamber was further away from the princes, separated by a garden.

Only here, the two saw some smoke rising on the right side.

"Oh, it's not on fire!" Feda asked, the smoke wafting by, and when I smelled it, it was an extremely strong smell of barbecue. I only heard a woman's voice from the other side:

"Why is the smoke getting bigger and bigger, don't start the fire."

"Fortunately, it's still sunny, as we used to do in the past, and the smoked ones are delicious."

"Let the king know that it's all right......"

Then there was hearty laughter.

"Let's go check it out." Ram was always curious, and rushed in the direction of the smoke with a brisk walk, Fei Daben didn't want to go to the woman's place, and didn't bother to stop him, but he was dragged by Ram, and he had to take a look, don't really have a fire.

Some people ask whether the encounter between people is accidental or inevitable, and if it is accidental, why at a certain time and place, people who are obviously in opposite directions can meet in one place. If it is inevitable, then if you change a little bit in the process, then you may not see this person. The mystery of the universe lies in the fact that you can't guess it, and you can't decide it. Surprise originates from this universe, and so does helplessness.
