Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Tianjing Chapter 33 Only the Weeping Yang Guan Parting (1)
Just after the first watch, in the backyard of King Qin's mansion, there was a slight knock on the door in the subordinate's residence. Standing outside the door was Chen Xuanji, who did not hold the lamp and was immersed in darkness.
The woman in the door glanced through the crack in the door, opened the door and looked around, pulled Chen Xuanji into the room, and said in a low voice: "Are you crazy?" ”
"Sisters don't say invite me to a cup of tea when they see each other."
"Say something."
"It's good to say that it's the head of the Qin Palace, and there is no good tea?" Chen Xuanji answered the question, took care of himself and got a pot of tea, sat down and took a sip: "It's still cold." ”
"Don't push me to do it." The person who had quietly met with Chen Xuanji several times was the chief maid of the Qin Palace, Lu Zhan.
Chen Xuanji put down the teacup and said, "I will follow Xu You to Tubo." ”
Lu Zhan was obviously stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked again after a while, "When is it?" ”
"I slept just now, and the princess sent Jingzhi to tell me. I'll leave with Shizi's car early tomorrow morning."
"It's too late to inform the outside." Lu Zhan thought about it a little and found that it was too late to hand over the news now.
"I must be fine, I'm afraid that you will not be honest in Beijing. Xu De is not easy to kill. Chen Xuanji reminded.
"Recently, the adults have been moving frequently, and once the news from the north enters Beijing, we will speed up our actions, but you inexplicably entered the Qin Palace, and now you have inexplicably gone to the west." Lu Zhan felt ridiculous and asked, "Can you know when you will come back?" ”
"When the son of the world comes back, I will come back."
"If ......" The killing intent in Lu Zhan's eyes leaked, and it was even more uncomfortable than drinking inferior cold tea.
"No chance," Chen Xuanji smiled, "I'm a doctor, and I'm not a maid, so it's impossible to follow the son of the world at any time,"
Lu Zhan thought about it, it was indeed the case. On the bright side, even if you kill Xu You, it will not have much impact on the overall situation.
"Don't think about it so much, I'll find an opportunity to do it myself." Chen Xuanji looked at the hesitant look on Lu Zhan's face and said, "Jingzhong, you bid them farewell for me." ”
With that, she got up, put the teacup on the table, and quietly went out of the house.
About the third watch, a troop of cavalry, forty or fifty men, all dressed in armor, waited quietly outside the door.
Xu De went out to the court, and this group of cavalry dismounted one after another to salute, and the first person even stepped forward and knelt down, and said: "The last general, Pingkang, the general of the Zhenyuan Army, see the prince." ”
Although this person and Xu An are both generals, they are not the same as generals. Most of the Anxi army is a town of 30,000 people, and the mayor of a town is also called a general, which is very different from the general who runs behind the chief officer.
Xu De looked at his face in the dark, this person was Guo Yi's old acquaintance, he remembered this person, but he couldn't remember Guo Yi at the beginning.
Xu De looked at Pingkang, who was kneeling, and stretched out his hand to help him up. "General Ping, the dog has a long way to go, and I hope General Ping will protect him."
Pingkang was helped up, and when he heard this, he immediately expressed his loyalty and said: "The last general will definitely protect His Royal Highness the prince, please rest assured." ”
"I'm my father, and I should have sent him today. But," Guo Yi flicked his sleeves and said with a wry smile: "I want to go to court." ”
"The prince is a big Han pillar stone, giving up the small for the big, which is admirable."
When Xu De heard this, he smiled, got into the carriage, lifted the curtain, and said, "Xu has thanked General Ping." In this sentence, he is not Xu De, the king of Qin, he is just his father Xu De.
Pingkang knelt down again and said he didn't dare, Xu De put down the curtain and asked Li Tie to drive the carriage away.
Xu De sat in the dimly lit carriage, thinking about the glass of wine he had drunk with Xu You last night. Until now, it seems to be boiling in the heart.
"Did you tell Xu Ge?" Xu De asked with his eyes closed.
"By the way, I gave him the jug." Li Tie's voice came in from outside the carriage.
"Why?" Xu De was puzzled.
"His Royal Highness also has the blood of the An family on his body, I can't protect him, I can always use the knife of the An family to protect him."
The two fell silent and said no more.
Just after the fifth watch, the Qin Palace's mansion was completely lit up, and the things that the prince wanted to bring were filled with more than ten carriages. And the accompanying princess-in-waiting prepared ten.
"Mother, ten maids is too many." Xu You looked at the princess who was still directing the loading of the car because she got up early and showed sleepiness in her eyes.
"Not much, you've been served by people since you were a child, how can you succeed with every envoy around you."
"It's enough for me to have wishful thinking. Ruyi is very considerate. The little maid standing next to Xu You was Ruyi, and after listening to Xu You's words, even her earlobes turned red.
"Really?" The princess asked hesitantly.
"I really don't." Xu You smiled, "In the coming year, my younger brothers and sisters will be born, and there will be more places to employ people in the house." It's an eventful season, and it's hard to find someone in the house. ”
When the princess heard this, she let all the maids get out of the carriage and return to their respective positions.
"Princess, everything is ready." Jingzhi came from the side of the carriage and said to the princess. Xu You looked up, there was a long carriage, Xu Ge was riding a big horse, talking to the leading groom.
"Then let's go." The princess said in a low voice, but her voice was lonely.
"Liuli is not here." The princess suddenly asked as if she remembered something.
"The county lord slept too late last night. Didn't get up. Jing Zhi replied on the side. When she went to see Ruri in the morning, her eyes were still red.
"Don't tell my sister anymore, I said goodbye to him yesterday." Xu You said. He got into the carriage, opened the curtain, and waved to the princess, "Mother, I'm leaving." ”
The princess also waved at him with a smile and said, "If you don't want to stay, come back." As he spoke, he began to cry again.
"Sister Jingzhi, help my mother into the house." Xu Youdao.
Seeing that the princess was helped into the house by Jingzhi, Xu Youxiang gave the groom an order: "Let's go." ”
The huge procession composed of more than ten carriages moved slowly, and when they went out from the main gate of the palace, the carriage that Xu You was sitting in was not conspicuous, and it was impossible to distinguish between them in more than ten carriages. This is also a kind of trick.
Xu You didn't open the curtain by the window, but he heard someone outside: "The last general, the commander of the Zhenyuan Army, General Pingkang, see His Royal Highness the Prince." ”
Before Xu You could speak, he heard someone outside the carriage in front of him replying: "General Ping, I haven't seen you for many years." Let's go. ”
Xu You could hear that it was Xu Ge who spoke.
"Ah, Commander Xu." Ping Kang was a little surprised to see Xu Ge here.
"I'm His Royal Highness's personal bodyguard, let's go first, let's slowly catch up on the road."
"Zhenyuan Military Headquarters, listen to my orders, get on the horse, and go!" Immediately, dozens of cavalry turned on their horses and divided into two teams, one team to open the way in front, and the other pair followed the tail of the convoy to be responsible for guarding.
"Shizi." In order to facilitate the care of Xu You, Ruyi sat in a carriage with Xu You. At this moment, she wanted to get up early and be cold and cold, and wanted to put on another cotton robe for Xu You.
Xu You took the cotton robe, draped it over his shoulders, and asked, "It may be a few years to go here, will you be homesick?" ”
The little maid thought about it in her eyes, but she said: "Follow the prince, everywhere is home." ”
Xu You smiled, took her hand and sat down beside her, held her diagonally in his arms, and whispered, "I will treat you well." ”
Ruyi hadn't spoken yet, but he heard Xu Ge's voice outside the carriage.
"Shizi, we have to go out of the city to the western camp first, and go on the road with the soldiers and horses of the Zhenyuan army."
"No problem, you can help me ask Imperial Doctor Chen what else is missing, if it is complete, you can go out of the city."
"Let's do it." The horses' hooves clattered far away, and they went to the back of the group.
In the distance, on a noodle stall, sat a middle-aged man, with thick eyebrows, a patched cloth coat, his hair scrawled tied around his head, but his eyes were fixed on the convoy in the distance.
Another person sat down beside him and said, "Boss, let's have a bowl of wontons." ”
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute." The boss quickly put the wontons into the pot, and the black-eyed man didn't eat a few bites of noodles, and the wontons were served.
Later, the people ate a bite of the wonton, still chewing in their mouths, and said vaguely: "Don't think about it, you can't kill it." ”
The black-eyed man didn't seem to hear it, and buried his face in the bowl to drink the noodle soup.
"Boss, collect the money." The black-eyed man put a few copper coins on the table, stepped in and left, looking like a real cropper.
Seeing that the man walked away, the wonton eater also put down half a bowl of wonton, put down a few copper coins on the table, and left.
