Chapter 70: Where is Home?

Came to the playground in front of a relatively tall house, saw a sign at the door said, the general management office, here should be the yamen of the head of the imperial guard, into the lobby, see a large bookcase in the middle, the back of the Taishi chair sat in the morning to see the head of the guard General Sun, below is a slip of chairs, the front two are the Taishi chairs, the chair is also a helmet and armor, the age looks older than General Sun, the chairs below are ordinary, only the backrest without armrests.

When we came to a place two feet away from the front of the bookcase, the four of us stopped together, gave a military salute, and shouted together, "I have seen the chief steward." ”

General Sun, who was sitting on it, said, "Okay, you guys sit down." ”

The four of us sat in the chairs below, and of course by position I was sitting in front of a few of them.

When we sat down, General Sun on top began to speak: "The four of you did a good job last night, with the faces of our imperial guards, and some people always say that we are decorations, and now they know that we are not only loyal to the emperor, we also have the spirit of not being afraid of death, and the courage of wisdom, in view of the fact that several of you were injured last night, I discussed with the two generals, and prepared to let you rest for a while." Lan Yunjie has made the greatest meritorious service this time, and he has been seriously injured, so he will rest for a month, and the three of you will be given ten days off. The four of you didn't have a good rest last night, now you can pack up and go home, have a good time, and come back after resting to continue to serve the emperor. ”

The four of us stood up again, bowed and shouted, "Thank you, Steward." ”

General Sun stood up from behind the bookcase and said, "Don't say kind words, I will be an errand in the future, and I will do more things with a long face." And the three of you, take the reward given by the emperor with you, and bring it out for you when you come back in official uniforms. As he spoke, he pointed to the three trays covered with yellow silk cloth on the bookcase.

The three of them went up with the tray and thanked General Sun again, before pushing out of the hall, and made an appointment to go out of the palace together before they returned to their dormitories, and it was estimated that they would have to move the dormitories when they went back.

I went back to the house and took off my armor and wiped my body, the medicine from the imperial doctor was not bad, and now my arm didn't hurt much. Then take out the emperor from the five-grade official uniform and put it on, the original one was from the eight-grade green official uniform, now it is a cyan five-grade official uniform, the chest and back are painted with Xiong Zhen complement, I feel that the momentum seems to be much bigger than the original, people say, people rely on clothes and horses to rely on the saddle is right.

I opened the luggage again and looked at it, and found that this Lan Yunjie was still very clean, and the quilts and mattresses were not very dirty, but although the body was his, it was always awkward in my heart, and it seemed that I bought a new set of bedding after going out and came back to change it. I looked in the luggage again, except for more than two taels of silver in a bag, there was nothing valuable, it seemed that this Lan Yunjie was not a rich master.

I put the two taels of silver in my sleeve, and I used the burden to wrap the gold given by the emperor in the bag, and prepared to take it out of the palace when I went out later.

After waiting for a while, the three of them came over, and they also had a burden for each person, and it was estimated that in addition to the bounty, there was something to be taken out to change the clothes.

A few people went out of the guard's dormitory area and went to the Donghua Gate, there are four doors in the palace, and there are rules for who enters and exits each door, and our guards' regulations are to enter and exit through the Donghua Gate.

Came to the gate of the palace, several Shence troops on duty checked our baggage, found the gold in the baggage, stopped and did not let go, I said you go and ask your General Gao, just say that the four of us are the imperial guards who caught the thief last night, the gold is rewarded by the emperor, one of them took us aside to wait, and the other ran to ask General Gao, and after a while the man came back panting, and said to us: "I'm sorry, General Gao also scolded us, saying that you shouldn't stop you, you rushed to the front last night regardless of life and death, Our brother from the Divine Army told me the same. It's all to blame for my absence last night, I didn't see it, and a few of them can go. ”

A few of us took the burden and came out of Donghua Gate, and I asked Liu Jinhu: "Brother Liu, where are we going?" "Brother Lan, aren't we going home?" I looked up and pretended to look at the sky and said? "Big brother, it's not early, it's time for lunch, or I'll have a treat, let's go home after dinner, anyway, I don't care about it for a while after resting for so many days." ”

Liu Jinhu smiled and touched his stomach and said: "Brother Lan said this, I'm really a little hungry, we haven't even eaten breakfast, you two can't go, I'm going to follow Brother Lan to eat." ”

Zhang Wensheng and Sui Jiantang also hurriedly said: "Go, when have our four brothers been separated." Didn't Brother Liu always say before: Have food to share and wine to get drunk together, do you want to change your hexagram today? ”

"Aren't I afraid that you two are worried about your wife, Brother Lan himself hasn't got a family yet, and you two have a suitable introduction to him."

I listened to a few of them talking nonsense, and I was muttering in my heart, where does this Lan Yunjie live, who is in the family, or go to eat and drink with them first, and then pretend to be drunk, and let them send me home It is more appropriate, depending on the intimacy between them, they must know each other's homes, make up your mind, I said: "Brothers, which restaurant do we go to, are you familiar with it?" ”

Liu Jinhu said: "Let's go to the Shunfeng restaurant we went to last time, I feel that the food there is good, and it is not far away." ”

The two of them had no objection, so I followed them down the street to the front, and walked two streets until I reached the inner gate.

Entered the restaurant, asked for a single room on the second floor, ordered food, I drank with them, because everyone was happy today, so I also drank happily, drank less than an hour, watched a few drunk, I quickly slipped under the table, and slid under the table.

That Liu Jinhu saw me slip down, and called Sui Jiantang, who was going to drink again, and the three of them dragged me out from under the table, and I continued to pretend to be drunk, talking nonsense in my mouth, anyway, I had to make them think that I was drunk and couldn't leave.

I closed my eyes, leaned back in my chair, and only listened to Liu Jinhu ask: "What should I do now, Brother Lan drinks like this, we don't want to drink it, who will send Brother Lan home." Liu Jinhu asked twice, but neither of them spoke. Liu Jinhu was angry, and said scoldingly: "Why don't you two have any righteousness at all, if we didn't rely on Brother Lan's wit and bravery this time, maybe we wouldn't even have lost our lives, and now we are promoted and rich, Brother Lan is drunk and let you send you home." ”

I only heard Sui Jiantang say: "Brother Liu, don't be angry, it's not that I don't want to send Brother Lan, it's that I don't know Brother Lan's house, where should I send it, Brother Zhang, do you know?" Zhang Wensheng also said: "Brother Liu, I don't know where Brother Lan lives, and I have never heard him talk about family affairs. ”

I leaned back in my chair, scolding this guy in my heart, and so did Lan Yunjie, I didn't even tell anyone about my home, and now I can't find a place to do it.
