Chapter 418: Determined to go
Cao Fu.
Originally, because of the celebratory atmosphere brought about by Yu Wenzhe's marriage, due to the old lady's physical reasons, it became very depressing.
When Yu Wenzhe came back, he went directly to the old lady's room, and Zhang Linglong walked out of the room with a lonely expression.
"Linglong, how's it going!"
"Whew!"
Zhang Linglong let out a long sigh of relief, as if she wanted to spit out all the tiredness in her body.
"The old lady's body has reached the limit, and her will to survive is very weak, if this continues, even if I perform acupuncture and moxibustion for her every day to continue her life, I can only last for a month at most."
"Can you only last for a month?" Yu Wenzhe muttered to himself, said.
Yu Wenzhe said, turned around and left the backyard, walked back to his cabin, closed the door, sat behind the desk, and closed his eyes.
Time flickered, and three days passed quickly, Yu Wenzhe stayed in his cabin for three days, during which he did not go to Zhang Linglong or Gao Yang's room, and the two of them were very sensible and did not disturb him.
Three days later, Yu Wenzhe walked out of the room, his eyes were red, very haggard, these three days Yu Wenzhe's abnormality, Gao Yang and Zhang Linglong all saw it, very worried.
Yu Wenzhe stood outside the old lady's room for a long time, until Cao came out of the room, Yu Wenzhe knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully three times.
A man has gold under his knees, and he does not kneel to the sky, the ground, or the king, but he can kneel down to worship his elders and relatives.
"Zhe'er!"
"Auntie, I'm going to Longyou!"
"It's good that you decide, go ahead, do what you want to do, don't worry at home, everything has me!"
"Auntie, I've been thinking about Uncle Cao and Xin'er for the past three days, and since this time, it's really too loose, this Tang Dynasty is still a place for the Cao family to protect!"
"Now that it's decided, let's go quickly, no one will blame you, we will only be proud of you!"
Cao Shi smiled with satisfaction and said.
Yu Wenzhe stood up, nodded heavily, and turned to leave.
"Zhe'er, you must come back safely!"
Cao muttered to himself.
Sometimes, to participate in this kind of thing is more dangerous than to fight a battle, especially the current situation in Longyou,
Security can be called a battlefield where people are killed invisibly.
Yu Wenzhe did not say hello to Gao Yang or Zhang Linglong, but left the Cao Mansion directly and went to the palace.
What is surprising is that Li Shimin did not wait in the Taiji Hall, but in the Xuanwu Gate, looking at Yu Wenzhe's back from a distance, Li Shimin had a guilty expression.
Three days is so long, how could Li Shimin not know the old lady's current situation, and also understand the reason why Yu Wenzhe did not agree at that time.
Because of Zhang Linglong, Li Shimin did not send the imperial doctor, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't care.
"It's coming!"
"Erchen is here!"
"Okay, go to the powder shop with me, this time you are back in charge of the secret guard, and I will hand it over for you personally!"
Li Shimin was dressed in the style of a common man and rode a horse, while Wang De followed behind him, and no one else accompanied him.
The three of them walked towards the outside of Chang'an City, where the gunpowder workshop was built on the edge of Chang'an City, not close to the Imperial Palace.
When they arrived outside the gunpowder shop, they were still far away, and the soldiers guarding the gunpowder shop saw three people.
Especially Qi Leng, trembling with excitement, he directly led the team to meet him.
"The last general has seen Your Majesty, General!"
"Whoa!" The soldiers suddenly knelt down and said.
"Get up!" Li Shimin said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Qi Leng got up and looked at Yu Wenzhe with excitement in his eyes.
"General, you're finally back!"
"Qi Leng, I'm not a general anymore, and I won't be called into the army again!"
Yu Wenzhe shook his head and said.
"General, no matter what, in the heart of the last general, you will always be my general!"
Qi Leng said undoubtedly.
Yu Wenzhe sighed, moved in his heart, how much courage did Qi Leng need to say this in front of Li Shimin.
"Okay, Qi Leng, are you complaining about me!" Li Shimin snorted coldly and said.
"The last general will not dare!"
"I don't dare, open the door immediately, I'm going to inspect it!"
Li Shimin hadn't been to the gunpowder shop a few times, and he already had some impatience at this time.
When you enter the powder shop, you obviously feel that the atmosphere has changed, and wherever you go, you have a feeling of being watched.
Loose on the outside and tight on the inside, this is the defense of the Gunpowder Workshop, and it can be said unceremoniously that the defensive strength of the Gunpowder Workshop is no worse than that of the Imperial Palace.
Walking into the depths of the gunpowder workshop, there is a courtyard, which is more heavily defended, even if Li Shimin arrives, it will be until the code is spoken to each other, and these guards will salute and push away and make way.
"Squeaky ......"
Entering the small courtyard and opening the door, there were not many people inside, and the first thing that caught my eye was a thin figure.
To say that he is thin is compared to others, but at the age he should be, he is very strong.
The wooden door opened, and he was clearly aware of it, and when he saw someone coming, he quickly stepped out of his seat.
"Erchen has seen his father!"
"You don't have to be polite, you did a good job!" Li Shimin nodded with a smile and said.
Li Su raised his head, his gaze fell on Yu Wenzhe's body, and he opened his mouth, and in the end, the words that came to his mouth quietly dissipated, and he turned his head, looking extremely complicated.
Then, Li Shimin took out the scroll and put it on the table, and the scroll opened, revealing the first name inside, Lin Zhe.
This scroll was made at the beginning without any changes.
Li Shimin picked up the brush and wanted to cross out the name, but when the tip of the pen fell, he stopped and opened the scroll a little more.
In the end, the tip of the pen fell behind Wang Xuance's name, the third commander of the secret guard, Yu Wenzhe.
This position can only be written by the name of the commander, and obviously, Li Su has not yet reached such a level.
After writing, Li Shimin took out a seal in his arms and fastened it to the name.
"Su'er, Yu Wenzhe will re-lead the secret guards, protect my Tang Empire, follow him and study hard, you are still too young!"
"Yes, Erchen knows!"
"Well, that's good, let's talk about your master and apprentice! Yu Wenzhe, as soon as possible, go early, and come back early! ”
After Li Shimin finished speaking, he turned around and left the room and left the gunpowder workshop.
After Li Shimin left, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little unnatural.
After a long time, Yu Wenzhe broke the silence, "Su'er, you hate me?" ”
Li Su raised his head and looked at Yu Wenzhe's eyes without evasion at all, "Yes, my blood tells me that I must hate you!" ”
"But you're too weak, your hatred is meaningless!" Yu Wenzhe said in a deep voice.
"So what to do, I've worked hard!" Li said.
"No, it's not enough to rely on your own efforts, you still need someone to teach you, since you hate me, then become stronger, become stronger by all means, and at that time, come and defeat me!"
"What you mean by all means, including recognizing the enemy as a teacher!" Li Su said very seriously.
"Yes, of course, including, what do you think, your enemy, you don't hide your secrets!"
The corners of Yu Wenzhe's lips outlined a hint of a smile and said.
"Student Li Su, I've seen the teacher!"
Li Su pursed his lips, the corners of his eyes became a little moist, bowed, and said.
Just when the word teacher was called, Li Su's emotions became a little uncontrollable for the first time, what a familiar name.
"Okay, in that case, let's go to Longyou with the teacher, only in the most difficult place can we exercise real strength!"
"Yes, students follow the teacher's instructions!" Li Su nodded and said.
Soon, the powder shop was busy, and a large number of members of the dark guard began to assemble.
Chang'an's secret guards have already been covered, and they can operate on their own according to the existing model, and this group of people has become the first batch to support Longyou, and they are led by Yu Wenzhe himself.
"Teacher, shall we leave immediately?" Li Su asked nervously.
"Of course not, it is extremely dangerous to go to Longyou, so thirty special soldiers were dispatched, and three hundred soldiers of the special reserve team went together, and they still have half a day to gather!"
"Teacher, since that's ......"
"Go, go and say goodbye to Concubine Yang, this time, you won't be able to come back in a short time!" Yuwen Zhe said.
"Thank you, teacher!" Li Su turned around and ran in the direction of the palace.
"This kid ......" Yu Wenzhe smiled, "Go, give him a horse, run by yourself, when will you be able to run!" ”
"Yes!" A secret guard behind Yu Wenzhe turned over and chased after him.
Looking at the back of this member of the secret guard leaving, Yu Wenzhe sighed softly, "I also want to say goodbye, Honglu Temple and Xunfang Pavilion must have an explanation!" ”
………………
In the Weishui River, a small boat is floating in the river, as if it will be submerged by the river at any time, but it is stubbornly floating on the river.
A white-haired old man was struggling to shake the boat pulp, and under the control of the old man, the boat moved forward very quickly.
"Child, there are two more days to go, and this small boat will not be able to go on, and when the time comes, Uncle will put you on the shore, and there will be less than ten days away from Chang'an."
On the deck of the boat, there was a seemingly weak figure looking in the direction of Chang'an.
The figure was dressed in a lily robe and a lily hat, and the wind on the river was very strong, and the wind blew the lily coat, and in the gap it could be seen that her body was wrapped in bandages, and on the cheeks covered by the lily hat, the same was entwined, and only a pair of bright and clear eyes were left outside.
Even if it's all hidden in the cloak, looking at her figure, you can know that this is a girl.
"Uncle, thank you for sending me for so many days, I'll go by myself when the time comes!"
A hoarse voice sounded, and it sounded harsh, as if there were two pieces of sandpaper in the throat, rubbing back and forth.
