Chapter 26: The Eve of the Storm

There is not much time left for Luo Xiaotian, if the plan is not right. Then the people in Kyoto City will suffer, and Chen An'an and his party will also be in danger of their lives.

At present, Pan Lao has borrowed a black-robed warrior from there, and what Shen Kun can do has been clearly explained. Next, we need to find another person to help.

And this person must be in a military position.

After thinking about it, she had to go to Zhao Susu first—maybe her father could help her.

Before I knew it, I had come to the gate of the palace. After observing the situation around me, I had to prepare to climb over the wall again, which was really tragic......

At this time, Zhao Susu was sitting in the room, looking at the cloth style sent by her aunt. Since Zhao Yuanxi didn't buy her ready-to-wear clothes last time, she has been pestering her aunt to find a way. The aunt had no choice but to quietly ask someone to choose some cloth styles and let her choose. After choosing, he took Zhao Yuanxi to buy it and give it to his sister, so that he would not be haunted all the time.

With a creak, the door opened.

Startled, she hurriedly looked up and saw that it was Luo Xiaotian who flashed in, and her eyebrows and eyes gradually stretched like a rain. The heart is like an arrow with a bow, and the body can't help but meet it.

"I left you a window this time, why did you come in through the door again?" Thinking of the incident in Lingyang City, Zhao Susu said with a giggle.

"Then you'll have to ask someone to put a ladder, it's too high for me to reach." Luo Xiaotian quipped.

As he spoke, he walked to the table and picked up the sweet soup on the table to drink.

"Huh...... That's what I drank. Zhao Susu hurriedly said.

Just halfway through the words, Luo Xiaotian had already finished drinking a few sips. Then he said, "Hmm...... It's so sweet, sure enough, you've drunk it. ”

Zhao Susu blushed with shame: "Don't mess around...... Look at you in a hurry, and when you enter the door, you are still thirsty like this. Want to drink tea? I called for someone to bring it in. ”

"Hmm...... It's okay to drink and talk to you slowly. ”

"Then you wait for me." So saying, she closed the door and went out.

Luo Xiaotian, who had nothing to do, lay on the bed. Because of the sleepless night, coupled with the fragrance and comfort of Zhao Susu's couch, he almost fell asleep.

After a while, when Zhao Susu came in with tea. He just woke up from his mistle.

Zhao Susu poured out two cups of tea and handed one to him. Whispering sweet: "Let's drink tea......"

Luo Xiaotian took the tea, deliberately holding her slender jade fingers, and smiled wickedly at the corner of her mouth. Ten fingers intersected, she was naturally shy, and said urgently: "Hot ......"

When Luo Xiaotian heard this, he quickly took the tea and put it on the table. Pull her hand up and look for burns.

Looking at his serious expression, Zhao Susu couldn't help but chuckle, like a crisp wind chime when it was blown by the breeze: "Joke, don't take it seriously." ”

"Oh...... Be careful with the nose getting longer. ”

She didn't understand what she meant, and touched her nose in confusion. Luo Xiaotian took her hand, gently scraped her beautiful nose with her index finger, and said, "Okay...... This just offsets. ”

"You're playing tricks on me!" Zhao Susu said angrily.

"Haha, this is a fairy tale for children. The nose of the liar will become very long, and I just cast a spell and now the spell is lifted. ”

Zhao Susu listened a little attentively and asked, "What kind of novel story is this?" ”

"That's what coaxing a child. If you want to listen to stories, when I have time, I'll write down all the stories I know. I'll tell you, and I'd better let me tell it for the rest of my life. Luo Xiaotian looked at her affectionately and said.

Hearing this, the honeypot in my heart seemed to be broken, and the sweetness overflowed the heart, spread to the face, and to the whole body...... She leaned on Luo Xiaotian's shoulder like a docile kitten, looking up at him with a stupid face, and the world outside the window seemed to stop at this moment......

"Su Su ......," Luo Xiaotian hugged her and said.

"Uh-huh......" she replied softly.

"In a few days, it's the Lantern Festival."

"yes, what's wrong?" Her eyes flashed gold. "Do you want to take me to see the lanterns? But ......"

"When I'm done with my own business, I'll naturally pick you up." Luo Xiaotian said.

"Hmm——? What's the matter? Zhao Susu asked suspiciously.

"I'm going to save a friend of mine, I can't just watch her die in vain!" While speaking, Luo Xiaotian looked out the window with a distant gaze. "I need you to help me."

She hurriedly got up and asked, "Tell me how I can help you." ”

"Do you know any important people in the military? It is better to be in charge of the defense of the city. ”

After thinking for a while, Zhao Susu suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "Yes...... My cousin - Li Wenyi! ”

She suddenly remembered Li Wenyi, who appeared when the carriage collided on the day she entered Beijing.

He is mainly responsible for the perimeter guard in the city, although it is not an important position, but at this moment, he can only go to him first.

In order not to involve Zhao Susu, I had a general understanding of the situation. Luo Xiaotian only asked her to write a letter, and then said goodbye to her in a hurry, after all, there was not much time left for him.

……

Holding the handwritten letter written by Zhao Susu, Luo Xiaotian hurried to Li Wenyi's mansion.

He pretended to be a guest of the palace to visit the door, entered the gate of the Li Mansion, and met Li Wenyi under the guidance of the servants.

When Li Wenyi heard that it was from his cousin's house, he also enthusiastically asked someone to watch the seat and make tea.

In the hall, the two exchanged pleasantries.

This Li Wenyi is a military attaché, and his natural behavior is arrogant and his expression is exaggerated. is even more proud, the two have just met, and they didn't talk for long, and they talked exaggeratedly. Showing off his proud military exploits, such as how to capture an assassin at night, and how to defeat three samurai alone......

Luo Xiaotian saw that this person was proud of his achievements, so he said to him: "Commander Li is really an outstanding general, if one day he ascends the treasure hall, don't forget to be below." ”

"Haha...... That's nature. It's just that in the past few years, the world has been peaceful, and the imperial city is even more comfortable, and it is difficult to climb high branches. Li Wenyi said stupidly.

"I do know that there is a miracle to be done, but I don't know if Commander Li is willing to take it."

Hearing this, Li Wenyi, who was originally sitting half-lying down, sat up in a precarious position for a moment, and immediately came to his senses, and his eyes lit up: "Is this really the case? What's the credit? ”

"Commander Li, lean over here, I'm afraid that the wall has ears......" After speaking, he pretended to take a mysterious look at the courtyard outside.

"Come, brother—borrow a step to speak, and come to my study."

As he spoke, he hurriedly took Luo Xiaotian to the study.

The two entered the study, and Li Wenyi asked impatiently: "Brother, what you just said is true?" ”

Luo Xiaotian nodded, and then said, "Commander Li, don't worry. I'll tell you about this matter slowly, but you must listen to my arrangement, otherwise you won't be able to get this military merit. ”

"Whatever my brother says, I will do it, this can rest assured, Li has always said nothing." Li Wenyi patted his chest and said.

After listening to his assurance, Luo Xiaocai leaned close to his ear and muttered for a while.

Li Wenyi nodded vigorously, showing joy from time to time.

After hearing this, he was even more ecstatic and said: "Seconds, seconds!" It can be said that it is a no-brainer. If this matter is done, Li will definitely thank you, and his brother will be Li's benefactor. ”

"Don't dare, don't dare...... When they met, they felt that Commander Li had the demeanor of a general. I only admired it in the next place, so I revealed this matter to you. ”

"Brother, I'm very happy today, can you stay and have a few drinks?" Li Wenyi was obviously dazzled by military exploits, and before the credit was established, the whole person was already fluttering.

"This wine was kept for Li Commander to drink after receiving military merits, and when the time came, he would come to the door to congratulate him. Besides, now it is necessary to recharge and take down the rebel party in one fell swoop. Luo Xiaotian excused himself and said.

"What my brother said is reasonable, then I will receive military merits another day, and come to my mansion to have a few drinks." Li Wenyi said smugly.

"Then I will take my leave. I hope that Commander Li will remember what I said and act according to the plan, otherwise this low-hanging fruit will be regretted if he misses it. Before leaving, Luo Xiaotian gave a thousand instructions and explained again.

"Please rest assured, you must follow your brother's arrangement, not move for one more moment, and not for one less moment." Li Wenyi said with a determined look in his eyes.

Seeing that he was so determined, Luo Xiaotian relieved himself and said goodbye to him.

As he walked along the road, he found the stove of a food stall on the side of the street. took out the letters written by Zhao Susu on his body, threw them into the fire, and turned them into ashes.

……

At nightfall, Luo Xiaotian, who had been tired all day, returned to the Hou Mansion.

hurriedly called Yao Qingshu and Zhang Ruyue to discuss their plans.

The three of them talked at night, and Luo Xiaotian roughly stated the rescue plan and arranged the actions of the two that night.

When she heard the task given to her by her senior brother, Zhang Ruyue asked in confusion: "Senior brother, will you let me take this little white-eyed wolf to visit the Lantern Festival?" ”

Luo Xiaotian nodded.

"Then I just need to disguise myself, bring the seven-tone fence, and go to the wall to blow a few songs at the hour?" Yao Qingshu also asked suspiciously.

"Yes." Luo Xiaotian replied firmly. "This time, only success is allowed, not failure. An An's life and death are in our hands......"

He divided the fluorite powder on his body into a small bag for each of them, and hung it around his waist in a blue silk bag so that he could identify himself that night.

In the middle of the night, the three of them dispersed.

A bright moon hangs high in the sky, and the stars are lined up like a chessboard.

On the windowsill, Luo Xiaotian was looking at the starry sky overhead. Suddenly, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a dark shadow passing over the high wall, and a light smile appeared on his face.

"Uncle ......"

"Hmmm......"

"Why are you here late at night? Every time Uncle Qianji appears, isn't it because I'm in danger? ”

"Do you want me to help?"

"Uncle, you beg me. Ha ha! ”

"Humph......"

"Uncle, this time I want to rely on myself."

"Okay—"

After a few words, the two were silent, except for the croaking of the frogs in the pool.

He laughed, amused by the sound of the frog.

"This river and lake - I will definitely set off a storm ......"

"It's good that Kyoto hasn't seen wind and rain for too long."

At this time, the city of Kyoto is still brightly lit and dancing.

Between heaven and earth—this night is like day......
