Chapter 393
Sihan nodded indifferently.
Dong Lincang took his eyes off Sihan at this time, raised the whip in his hand, and whipped the horse's belly again, and in an instant, the horse he sat down suddenly neighed, and the four hooves became more and more vigorous, and it jumped out of the distance in an instant.
The road is far away, and on the official road, the cold wind rises suddenly, and the flying sand spreads.
After three hours, Sihan and his entourage had arrived outside the gate of the national capital. At the same time, the gates of the capital were still completely closed, and no one entered or exited. Donglincang and Sihan both stopped their horses, and then, the guards of Donglinfu behind them shouted, "The prince of Donglinfu returns to the city, and I hope that the generals will open the city gate." ”
I don't know if the surroundings are too silent, or the guard's voice is very loud, but I feel that the guard's blurted out voice is very large, and even slightly penetrating and shocking, as if even the surrounding air was shocked twice by that voice. Immediately, on the tower of the city gate in front, someone suddenly probed out, and his eyes swept towards Sihan and Donglin.
In a moment, someone said very politely on the city tower: "Sure enough, the son of Donglin has returned to the city!" Come, quickly open the city gates, and welcome the prince of the east into the city. ”
As soon as these words fell, the two gates of the city, which were wide and heavy, and even inlaid with long golden cones, slowly opened.
"Thank you."
Donglin Cang replied gently, no longer delayed, the long whip in his hand was raised again, and the horse rode in.
Sihan tightened the reins, and immediately rode his horse towards the east and followed him, and after the two of them entered the city smoothly without hindrance, they put the streets of the capital all over the country A few days ago, they were prosperous, but now, it was actually people who went to the streets empty, and it was cold.
These long streets, no vendors, no shouting, no pedestrians, no prosperity, some are just a column of armored guards walking and patrolling slightly abruptly on the long street.
"How come there are no vendors and pedestrians on the streets of the national capital?" Sihan frowned slightly, and asked subconsciously.
As soon as these words came out, Dong Lincang slowed down the speed of the horse, rode the horse beside Sihan, and only said: "Last night's fighting, bloody wind and rain, the people were already scared, how dare they come out today." In the troubled times, it is the people who suffer, Yao'er and take a closer look, most of the attic houses around the roadside have people carefully probed out of the carved windows, they are not watching the excitement, but only because of our fierce horses, the sound of hooves rises, which makes them nervous, push the window to investigate. Yao'er, look at their eyes, but they are cautious, timid and nervous? ”
Sihan didn't speak, but subconsciously looked up slightly, and saw that most of the carved windows of the attics and houses on both sides of the road were indeed slightly open, and they were weak and looked closely, and it was not difficult to find that those who were dodging and timidly stood with nervous faces.
The people in the room were indeed looking out worriedly.
For a while, I don't know if I was shocked by the nervous faces of those people, my mind became more and more sinking, and my emotions surged slightly, and I was a little uncomfortable.
But at this time, Dong Lincang whispered again: "These people, after all, don't know the fierceness and cruelty of war, they think that they can survive by hiding at home and carefully investigating outside, but they don't know, once the two countries are at war, or both sides do not take care of the people, how can the courtyards of these people's houses really guard them and protect them." ”
Sihan raised the corner of his eyes, "Donglin Gongzi is really good-hearted." ”
Dong Lincang sighed, "It's just a nosy person, but he doesn't have the ability to arrange everything perfectly." Maybe in the end, the moth will put out the fire, but in the future, I still want to work hard for this nervous face. ”
This topic was a little heavy, and when it came into Sihan's ears, Sihan only frowned slightly and did not reply.
Donglin Cang also gathered his mind down, silent, and said no more.
The group continued to ride forward, and when they arrived at Donglin Mansion, Donglin Cang sent someone to immediately lead Sihan back to the courtyard to live, and he claimed that he had something important to deal with and parted ways with Sihan.
After returning to the small courtyard where she lived a few days ago, Sihan asked the servant to prepare hot water, and took a bath, but when everything was finished, she sat down peacefully in the soft collapse, wiping her hair with a dry handkerchief, but it was not long before the hair was dry, and suddenly, there were several footsteps outside the door.
"Lord Wang."
In an instant, the servant outside the door immediately spoke respectfully, but this blurted out voice was really surprised, and it seemed that the people outside the door were extremely stunned.
Sihan raised the corners of his eyes, his pupils sank, his eyes subconsciously condensed towards the door not far away, and his thoughts also flew around, thinking about who the so-called 'prince' outside the door was.
"Your son-in-law is busy, sending slaves to accompany the king to walk around the house, and this time he suddenly came here by mistake, but it is also fate, I don't know, who lives in this house? Isn't it, your son-in-law's concubine? In just a moment, the footsteps outside the door stopped not far from the door, and then, a voice full of interest also rose leisurely.
This voice was lazy and undisguised, and it was undisguised with a bit of arrogance and contempt, as if it had been heard somewhere.
Sihan's face changed slightly, and his thoughts rose more and more, but at this time, the leisurely and proud voice rose again, "Your son-in-law is a well-known person who does not sit still, and in previous years, he also hyped up in Beijing that he would not accept three thousand weak water in this life, but only take one loving person. As he spoke, he smiled and raised his voice, "You tell the king truthfully that in this courtyard, how many beautiful people are hidden in your son-in-law?" ”
These words really shook Sihan a lot.
This place is just a random courtyard in the east of the mansion, but there are a few servants waiting outside, and there is nothing abnormal, but the person outside the door will think of the golden house from this whimsical thought. I have to say that she suddenly remembered who the person outside the door was, and it was precisely because that person was such a person, so it was easy to think in the direction of the wind wandering.
"Lord, our son-in-law has no favorite daughter, and he has not led a woman into the house in recent days, so how can he be charming." The servants of Donglin Mansion outside the door were also embarrassed when they heard it, and hurriedly explained in their voices.
But as soon as these words fell, the man outside the door said with interest again: "Really? This king doesn't believe it, your son-in-law is also a man in his prime, and he is not looking for someone to solve his emergency in the flower street and willow lane outside, if it is not impotence, how can he endure hunger and thirst for so many years? As he spoke, he chuckled twice, "Whoever is in the house, tell the king." ”
These words are really a bit unorthodox, and the servants present are all frowning slightly, but they dare not make a mistake because of the identity of the person in front of them. It's just that for so many years, his son-in-law has been in this capital city, all of them have excellent reviews, gentle and elegant, how can he be ridiculed like this, and even every time he sees a person, he is respectful and polite to his son-in-law, even if the emperor in the palace comes, he is also polite to his son-in-law, and now it is good, the person in front of him is really too open-mouthed, rude in words and deeds, and the words and deeds of the whole person are completely consistent with those comments about him in the national capital, which is really contemptible and helpless.
It's just that even though they are resistant, the slaves present don't dare to show it too much in front of them.
They only lowered their heads slightly, looked at each other, but were about to think about it, when the man raised his voice and asked, "Why, can't you say it yet?" Could it be that there is something unspeakable hidden in this courtyard, yes, you don't dare to say it. ”
The more the faces of the servants tightened, it was a moment, and finally someone stubbornly said respectfully: "Back to the prince's words, the person in the house is our Miss Cousin of Donglin Mansion." ”
"Miss Cousin?" As he spoke, he was silent for a moment, and then chuckled, as if he suddenly remembered, and the man raised his voice and said: "This king has remembered, speaking of your Miss Cousin of Donglin Mansion, this king and her have had a relationship." As soon as his voice fell, he began to walk slowly forward, as if he was about to move closer and closer to the door in front of him.
The servants were shocked, and several of them immediately greeted them more and more, and used their bodies to block in front of the man, and hurriedly said: "The prince asked the prince to wander around the mansion, the place with excellent scenery in the east of the mansion is not here, in the East Garden, it is better for the slave to lead the way for the prince, and lead the prince to the East Garden to sit?" ”
As soon as these words fell, the man smiled with interest, "This king suddenly doesn't like to enjoy the scenery, but only to appreciate people." This king has also met with your cousin, and you have a good time to ask, and say that this king has an opinion about her, and ask her if she answers. ”
These words were undoubtedly embarrassing the slaves present, which made the faces of the slaves more and more tense and helpless.
The character and temperament of the person in front of them, they are naturally like thunder, so that this wandering person can meet the girl in the house, once something happens, they will be unable to escape the blame.
"Back to the prince, at this time, Miss Xu is resting, inconvenient, inconvenient to see people, yes, you look at the prince, ......" Stayed silent for a moment, and the servant who replied at the beginning responded respectfully again, but before the words were spoken, the person in front of him who was full of noble interest had already interrupted, "Why, the door has not been called, so you have to directly refuse this king?" Is this king so easy to fool? As he spoke, he seemed to be looking for fault, raised his voice, and continued: "All the relatives of the nobles of the palace, who does this king want to see who will not give them to him?" It's just that the face of your cousin in Donglin Mansion is so big that she can't even climb this king, so you can't see it? If this is the case, can this king think that a woman from a merchant family is openly despising the royal family, and has never taken a prince in his eyes, what kind of crime should he be guilty of......
As he spoke, he slowly turned his head and looked at the entourage of the palace standing not far away, chuckled, and asked with interest: "What should you tell this king to tell him, what is the crime of openly despising the royal family and committing crimes against those below the royal family?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the palace servant said respectfully: "The lightest crime is fifty battles, and if the circumstances are serious, it should be sentenced to death." ”
These words were in my ears, and the servants of the Donglin Mansion present finally couldn't stand up. Even if he is extremely disdainful of the prince in front of him, this person is a royal family after all, and his status is respected, even if he is a mess of mud, he still can't be presumptuous in front of him. After all, even a rusty knife can still stab and kill people, not to mention, this prince is full of notoriety, and it is also harmful to people's precedent, so I have to guard against it, and I have to respect it.
At this point, the servants of the Donglin Mansion looked at each other, and everyone's faces were heavy.
It was a moment, and the servant of Donglin Mansion who spoke at the beginning immediately said: "The prince misunderstood, Miss Cousin was unwell today, so she was resting and recuperating in the house, and the prince also ordered not to disturb Miss Cousin's rest." But now that the prince is here and wants to see Miss Biao, the minions will naturally pass on the pain for the prince, but if Miss Cousin is still asleep and has not answered, I hope that the prince will be more considerate. ”
The servant said this very tactfully, and as soon as his voice fell, he slowly turned around and called softly to the carved wooden door in front of him, "Miss Biao is awake, and King Wei is here to see you?" ”
The room was silent, the surroundings were silent, and the depression was fully revealed, but the words of the servant outside the house suddenly broke the peace around them, and vaguely, they inexplicably made the surrounding atmosphere tense.
Sure enough, it was King Wei.
Sihan sat quietly and softly, her slender fingertips moved slightly again, and she continued to wipe her wet hair slowly, her thoughts were far away, and she didn't speak.
It was only a moment before the servant outside the door called again.
Sihan sat quietly and still didn't say anything, but it wasn't long ago, I thought that the slave was still going to continue to call the door, but suddenly, the carved door not far away was kicked open.
In an instant, the violent impact caused the door of the house to rumble open, and the servants outside the door were suddenly shocked, and they all shouted, "Lord Wang." ”
It's just that it's too late to call, it's too late to stop it, and in an instant, the carved wooden door has been completely shaken open, and then, the Baili Hongyun, who is full of luxury and preciousness, stepped straight into the house, his waist is straight, and he is majestic, and the majestic and proud momentum is extremely cautious, which provokes the slaves present in the Donglin Mansion to frown, and they want to stop talking, but they never say anything to stop it.
The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became strangely quiet, and the handkerchief in Sihan's hand to wipe his hair also paused.
Baili Hongyun took two steps into the house, then stopped, squinted at Sihan, his eyes swirled around her face, and suddenly chuckled, and said teasingly: "Yo, isn't this Miss Donglin Fubiao who is taking a nap, why is she suddenly sitting on the soft collapse?" Why is the hair also wet, didn't you know that this king is coming, and he was ecstatic, so excited that he sweated, and wet his hair? ”
These words are undoubtedly ridiculing and even joking, and looking at the proud smile of Fengyue on the face of the hundred miles of Hongyun, and even the contempt burst out of the narrow eyes, it can really be judged that this Weiwang Baili Hongyun does not seem to be good. Maybe this person will send someone to secretly rescue her and Jiang Yunnan last night, because Lan Yeyu cares, yes, for the sake of the overall situation, he can naturally come to the rescue, but deep down, after all, he is extremely resistant and disdainful of her Yan Sihan.
After all, after all, they are the people of the two countries, and they are slightly opposed, yes, this guy wants to ally with Lan Yeyu, and naturally he will not fight against Lan Yeyu, but although it is an alliance, it is not absolutely obedient, and this Baili Hongyun is also an ambitious person, so this guy naturally retains his original intention and vigilance, and his majesty is proud, so that Yan Sihan is also indifferent from the bottom of his heart.
"When King Wei came to see him, the folk girl was surprised, and she was nervous, and it was natural for her to break out in a cold sweat, and she was so nervous that she forgot to answer, and she wanted to come to King Wei with a large number of adults, and she would not blame it." Sihan was silent for a moment, and then replied attentively.
Baili Hongyun chuckled lightly and continued: "In this way, it is the sudden visit of this king, which shocked Miss Table, and this is also the fault of this king, I was thinking that I had a relationship with Miss Table, and I wanted to reminisce about the old times out of courtesy, but I unexpectedly disturbed Miss Table. ”
"No, I wouldn't be." Sihan responded indifferently, and as he spoke, he changed his words, "Since it is a reminiscence, if King Wei does not give up, he can sit at the round table." ”
Baili Hongyun turned his eyes and swept towards the round table not far away, hooked his lips and smiled, and said with interest: "It is not necessary to sit at the round table, but the round table is a little far away from Miss Biao, which is not convenient for you and me to chat." Yes, you and this king also know each other, and there is no need to be more restrained in some etiquette, and this king will directly be a soft couch beside you. ”
As soon as his voice fell, he ignored Sihan's reaction, and began to walk slowly, naturally sitting next to Sihan.
The servants of the Donglin Mansion outside the door were all frowning, and their undulating eyes were completely focused on Baili Hongyun, and they wanted to speak again and again, and none of them really spoke.
Sihan raised his eyes, glanced indifferently at the servants outside the door, and said lightly: "You don't have to guard, close the door, and go about your business." ”
It's okay not to say this, but when you say it, it makes the servants of Donglin Mansion more and more uneasy, they didn't move, they froze in place, at this time, Baili Hongyun raised the corner of his eyes, and then Sihan's words said: "What are you still doing, this king and your cousin are catching up, and you also want to forcibly participate?" ”
These words were undisguised with a little threat, and the servants of the Donglin Mansion outside the door finally showed panic, and hurriedly raised their hands to close the door of the house, and when everything was over, the servants looked at each other with solemn faces, and then after a while, someone whispered: "Hurry up and inform the son." ”
As soon as these words fell, a servant nodded in response, but he only turned around and walked a few steps, and was blocked by several Weiwang servants outside the door.
The servant of Donglin Mansion was stunned and subconsciously stopped.
One of the servants of the Wei King said: "Donglin Gongzi is busy with the important affairs of Donglin Mansion, and he is so busy that he doesn't even have time to greet my prince. If there is any mistake in Donglin Gongzi because of this, or if there is something important to delay, then the blame will be blamed and my prince will be involved, can you afford it? ”
