Chapter 87: The Officials of the Frontier
The rain rained all night without stopping.
When morning came, there was a dense sedan chair parked outside the gate of Xicheng Mansion. The house arrived around, and since last night, there have been a large number of government soldiers wearing hats and holding long cherry spears. The soldiers of the enemy, standing in the heavy rain, alternately crossed in three rows, with their backs to the wall, facing the street and guarding the streets, even the birds passing by the sky would be shot by a large number of archers in an instant.
The governor of Shangjiang went home, washed himself, drank a bowl of porridge, and hurried before dawn. The four generals of the four mansions of Xingyuan did not dare to leave, and the river governor and the three river defense yamen couldn't even take care of the porridge, so they hurriedly came after changing their court clothes. The Admiral of the Upper Reaches of the Yangtze River and the Admiral of the Weishui Naval Division received the notice of the Admiral of the Jialing Naval Division before dawn, and they were extremely shocked and rushed wildly. The six forbidden generals of Lizhou Road and Jingnan Road came in a hurry overnight, but Xiangye had already gone to bed when he came, but he sat honestly in the Xicheng Mansion Hall, and talked about tea and tea.
Until......
Drowsy and waited until it was almost noon, dozens of officials waited silently when they saw a large number of people coming outside the hall, and suddenly got up and said: "The lower officials and lowly officials have seen the Weihu general. ”
"Found it?" Xiao Hong came from Lanzhou with a large number of people, tore off the hat on his body, stepped forward to clasp Lu Licheng's hands and asked urgently: "Have you found the right minister?" ”
"Found it, don't worry, general." Lu Licheng nodded and reported: "At the beginning of last night, it appeared in the Xicheng Mansion official arrival. ”
"Hmm." I have heard that this uncle suddenly appeared in an official house for no reason when everyone almost dug up Xingyuan Mansion, Xiao Hong was very curious and turned his face to Qiu Yuan, "Qiu Cheng Mansion, what's going on?" Why did the right minister suddenly appear in your house when everyone couldn't find it? "Could it be that his uncle will fly away from the sky and suddenly come out and play with everyone?
"That's right." After asking his doubts clearly, Lu Licheng pulled Xiao Hong to sit on the chair, and said with a bad face: "Yesterday at noon, the right minister entered from the north gate alone, bought a horse and a piece of silver at a horse shop, and then bought three steamed buns by the West City Gate to fill his stomach, and then swam to the Jialing River Freight Terminal to ask about the ships in the south of the Yangtze River. ”
"Hmm." Xiao Hong nodded in her heart, pointed at Lu Licheng and continued to ask: "And then?" ”
"If there is no ship to go south, the right minister will return to the west of the city." Lu Licheng said with a bad face: "When it was dark, the right minister wandered around the west of the city to the gate of a gouyuan, and then had an argument with the old bustard of this gouyuan, and then fled to the small alley between Qiucheng Mansion and Zhengxi Dadu Hufu to take refuge. ”
"Run? Avoid? Xiao Hong's eyebrows raised high, "Why did you have a dispute, why did you want to run away?" "You won't give money if you prostitute yourself, will you?
"Interrogated the bustard and the prostitute, saying that the prostitute pulled the right minister by mistake, and then the bustard made insults, and the right minister replied, and the old bustard asked Ou to beat the right ......"
"Bold!" Hearing that it was not a prostitute who did not give money, but was also pulled by mistake, Xiao Hong angrily smashed the table and snorted: "Insulting the right minister, and even wanting to fight in Europe, it is really lawless, where did the court put me on the river?" Angry got up and snorted: "Bring this bold old bustard to the palm." ”
Seeing that he was so angry, Lu Licheng hurriedly reassured: "General Mo Huo, the lower official has already been punished." ”
"Hmm." Hearing that it had already been palmed, Xiao Hong pursed her lips and nodded, sat back on the chair and continued to ask: "Then why did the right minister appear in the Qiucheng Mansion?" ”
"This ......" mentioned this incident, and the old people looked at Qiu Qi neatly, not knowing whether to talk about it or not.
"What's going on?" Suddenly, seeing everyone's conclusion, Xiao Hong followed everyone's gaze to Qiu Qi's face, frowned and asked, "Qiu Capital, how is the matter?" ”
"Yes...... That's right. Qiu Qi was both ashamed and ashamed, and an old face was half white and half red, and bowed: "The dog steals ...... Stealing a tryst with the daughter of the protector of the western capital in the pavilion of the back garden of the capital, when leaving, he was shocked to see the right side shrinking and hiding in the back door of the protector of the western capital...... Shelter. Speaking of this, an old face was already like a monkey's buttocks, and he peeked at Xiao Hong with great shame, closed his eyes and said: "Then the beast invited the right minister to enter the house through the back door, which is why the right minister suddenly appeared in the house." ”
"Huh?" After Xiao Hong heard this, an old face was immediately full of weirdness like everyone else, and he couldn't digest it a little and stood up, pointed at Qiu Cheng and said, "What does Qiu Chengfu mean?" After thinking about it, he asked weakly: "Last night, nearly 70,000 people couldn't find the right minister in the city, because your son and the daughter of the guardian of the family in the western capital were bumped into, and then your son was afraid that the right minister would tell him, so he took him back to the house?" ”
"No, no, no......" Qiu Qi sweated on his forehead, waved his hands vigorously, shook his head and said urgently: "It was the beast who saw that the right side was wet, and the poor cat was cowering in the heavy rain, so he couldn't bear to invite him back to his house." The words fell, and Potong knelt down and said urgently: "The animal not only prepares bath water for the right minister, but also gives clothes, and drinks and talks with the right minister in the room. ”
"General, what Qiu Chengfu said is true." Lu Licheng is also very helpless, if he brought the right minister back to the house for fear of telling the truth, he would have done it a long time ago, but Qiu Qi's son is like a friend to the right minister, not only preparing baths and clothes, but also holding lamps at the same table. If he hadn't seen the right minister dressed in fine clothes, if he hadn't smelled the smell of wine on his body, he didn't want to believe that this Qiu Yuan would treat a fallen man like a VIP.
"Qiu Chengfu get up." Xiao Hong suddenly aroused Qiu Qi, turned his eyes and said to everyone: "Seeing that it is almost noon, prepare a meal for the right minister, and soon the right minister will come out." ”
"Yes. The subordinate immediately went to order. "Qiu Qi is extremely troubled, what does the right minister like to eat? It's better to ask Manager Shen.
"Colleagues, please wait patiently." Xiao Hong pressed his hand, no longer speaking, picked up the teacup and meditated, the emperor really has a vision, this Lin Azhen is really powerful, and when he arrives at his mansion, he expects that the underworld and the white will look for him. When someone came to the inn to assassinate, he was secretly frightened, called Qinghua, Yang Zhen and others, and beat him, and sure enough, he instigated people to take the tongue of the right minister behind his back. I don't know how to be angry, so I hurried to Xingyuan, hoping to prevaricate this time. If the right minister really wants to investigate strictly, now he, the mighty tiger general, can't stop it.
The wax fire has been extinguished, the sound of rain outside is ticking, the bed curtain in Cen Silence's room is tightly closed, and the two people who are sleeping in each other sleep quietly and silently.
"Husband......" Shen Cen for a long time, a panicked cry sounded, and the woman who woke up from the nightmare sat up without an inch, and tears flowed before her eyes opened.
The little head pillowed on his arm suddenly disappeared, and Ah Zhen immediately opened his sleepy eyes, and then sat up to comfort: "Ting'er is not afraid, the husband is here." ”
"Husband?" Tingting had a long, long dream, dreaming that she couldn't find her husband anywhere, dreaming that her husband was killed, she was heartbroken in the dream, just opened her tears and saw her husband beside her, staring blankly at this man who broke his heart for a long time, as if in a big dream, stretched out his hands, gently touched his face, tears of joy like a flood beast can't help it.
"It's really a husband, woo ......" can't imagine the ecstasy, Tingting covered her lips, stared at the husband who was close to her, and then Porphy buried herself in his arms, not knowing what to say, only the voice of the husband muttered.
"Alright, stop crying, good!" Ah Zhen helplessly hugged the fairy wife, patted her soft back comfortingly, hugged her and lay on the pillow again, staring at each other for a long time, before reluctantly ** removing her tears and saying: "Okay, husband won't leave again, Ting'er won't cry anymore." ”
Tingting pillowed on these warm arms, and her tears and apricot eyes couldn't leave his eyes for a moment.
His wife's unspeakable begging, Jiao Ah Zhen was reluctant to pity, caressed her sleepless eyes and whispered, "Be good, sleep a little longer." ”
"The husband is so good-looking, Ting'er can never get enough of it." The water eyes condensed with hers, Su Tingting felt at ease, reluctantly and lovingly looked at him, and kept looking at him until her eyelids sank again, and then she reluctantly closed her eyes and breathed shallowly.
She was so tired because of him. Lin Azhen was full of tenderness and stared at the fairy's sleeping face for a long time before reluctantly putting her little head on the pillow. Moved off the bed softly, finished dressing, stopped a bed curtain, lovingly kissed the fairy Xia who was meeting him in a dream, and then silently opened the door of the orchid room that had been closed for a long time.
"The drizzle is vague, Baqiao is drunk, and he is full of words. Bead curtain green tent, sunset east of the river, meet the pond. Light moon screen! Don't come to the flowers to make it colder, dye the palace makeup. Maoyuan is desolate? The wine is strong, and the water shadow is half a river. ”
Closing the upper class pandan room, he watched the rain that had not stopped since last night, and suddenly realized that this heavy rain was the first rain he had come to this world.
"In this life, before the exaltation, the dew melts into smoke, and the night is deep in the pavilion of incense. The peach is cold, there is nowhere to clear the sorrow, and I have not forgotten each other. The lonely lamp shower, the sound of the evening stream, and the secluded wall. At a glance, the empty mirror dawned, and the rest of the age was almost frivolous. ”
"Alas......" Walking in the sculpture corridor, he sighed heavily, it has been two months since he came to this ghost world, Miss Min should find a suitable cornea, right? After all, her father is so rich, shouldn't it be difficult to find another cornea, right?
"Strange?" Walking on the corridor and watching the flowers and green trees in the rain, Ah Zhen shook his head in confusion, and didn't understand that the old criminal's nerve remembered that he owed someone a cornea? Why does the face of Miss Minli's daughter always haunt him?
Just when Ah Zhen muttered and tilted his head and couldn't figure it out when he stepped into the hall, the official who had been waiting for a long time saw that his uncle finally Shanshan came, and hurriedly didn't stand up and knelt down: "Knock on the right prime minister......
"Ah......" When he couldn't figure it out, this shouting frightened Ah Zhen, retracted his thoughts and looked into the hall, and immediately shouted to the officials who were kneeling on the ground: "You officials don't have to be like this, get up quickly." ”
"Prime Minister Xie." This official called a cadre of people abruptly, got up from the ground in a panic, and clenched his fists to apologize: "The right prime minister is frightened, and he is guilty of despicability." ”
