Chapter 427
The man was wearing a cloak and a hat to cover most of his face, and he squatted outside the cell and whispered to Qiu Niang, "Master Mother, you hold on for a few more days." Now that His Royal Highness the King of Tang has moved the army outside the city, he will soon enter the city with the army as the King of Tang. You take care of your body here, and when the time is right, I will lead His Royal Highness Tang Wang down here to rescue you. The people who betrayed the night owl look at me too closely these days, so I haven't found a chance to change your dressing for the mistress, and I hope you don't be surprised. I also hope that you don't worry too much, and maintaining a happy mood is good for the recovery of the body and the healing of wounds. ”
After that, the man stuffed a bundle of bandages and another burden in his hand along the gap in the cell door to Qiu Niang, and when Qiu Niang nodded to signal that she understood, he turned around and left the dungeon without looking back.
At this time, compared to the damp, stuffy and dim dungeon at the bottom, the sun outside Zhangye County was shining, and the fireball-like sun hung high in the air, scorching the earth, and the heat wave on the ground was soaring, scorching people's skin, and people were a little dizzy. However, at this time, outside the city of Zhangye County, there was a black oppressive head, and the Zhangye County Guard took a group of administrative officials under his command, and the night owl commander of Zhangye County came to the outside of Zhangye County with his night owls. They all got the news from the night owl commander that Tang King Li Wenyuan was leading a guard of honor in the direction of Zhangye County, and he would arrive at Zhangye County in less than an hour. So they decided to go out of the city together to meet Li Wenyuan, the king of Tang.
Although these people were very surprised by Li Wenyuan's sudden arrival, especially some of the unclean ones under their buttocks, they felt chills in their hearts for no reason. When waiting for Li Wenyuan's arrival here, a heart was pounding uncontrollably, as if a mouth could jump out of his throat, and his body kept sweating, and he didn't stand outside the city for a while, his entire sideburns were wet with sweat, and even his close-fitting clothes were soaked with sweat. If it weren't for the hot weather, I'm afraid that someone would have discovered that something was wrong and exposed that there was a ghost in their hearts.
The group stood silently outside Zhangye County and waited for Li Wenyuan's arrival, and just when they felt a little dry in the sun, they saw a black spot on the official road from a distance. The black dot gradually became larger, and everyone gradually saw that it was Li Wenyuan and the honor guard around him.
Although there are only 200 people in this team, their spirit is not ordinary, and it is obviously a division of tigers and wolves. These soldiers have bright armor, walking on the road one by one, the demeanor is extraordinary, all over the team of Tang characters and Li characters banner waving in the wind, people can distinguish their identities at a glance. Who is not Li Wenyuan's honor guard? In this team, the person who rode a tall horse and wore a robe and was guarded by everyone in the middle, who was not Li Wenyuan?
Seeing this team gradually approaching the city of Zhangye County, these people who came to wait outside the city early in the morning began to tidy up their clothes and manners, led by the commander of Zhangye County and the night owl of Zhangye County, and behind the two of them were their subordinates according to their official positions, so they stood quietly on both sides of the official road and waited for the arrival of Li Wenyuan and his party.
Li Wenyuan's team gradually came to the front of these people, Li Wenyuan took the horses under his crotch, and said to the Zhangye county guard who saluted him next to him: "Why are you all gathered here, who are you waiting for?" ”
Zhangye Junshou replied respectfully: "If you go back to His Royal Highness the Tang King, the lower officials and others are naturally waiting for you here." ”
Li Wenyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Oh? Waiting for me? However, I have been keeping a low profile along the way, never revealing my identity, and before leaving, I also specially told the officials of the DPRK and China not to disclose the news that I was not in the DPRK. And where did you know I was coming? Speaking of this, Li Wenyuan accentuated his tone: "Could it be that who leaked my whereabouts?" If that's the case, I'll go back and check those insiders. If one day the enemy finds out about my whereabouts and sets up an ambush to intercept me on the way, these people will be the greatest sinners. ”
Zhangye County Shou was taken by Li Wenyuan's momentum, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, and even the officials behind him also knelt down, and everyone shouted: "His Royal Highness the King of Tang is angry." ”
At this time, the night owl commander hurriedly took a step forward, arched his hand at Li Wenyuan and said, "Please also ask His Royal Highness King Tang to calm his anger." Your whereabouts were not revealed on purpose, but by coincidence. One of the supper we had been out to work in the past saw your drive coming towards Zhangye County from a distance by chance, so he sent back the news to me, and I informed the adults of Zhangye County of this news, so we will gather here today to wait for your big ride. ”
Li Wenyuan listened to the words of the night owl commander, and said with a secret smile in his heart: What a chance, what a night owl who goes out to work. Oh, it's true that the night owl is out at work, but isn't this supper job just to find out where I am? As for any chances, they are all, how can there be so many accidental things in the world to catch up, it is obviously premeditated.
Thinking of this, Li Wenyuan looked at the people who came to greet him beside him, swept the faces of these people one by one, and remembered the mood of everyone present in his strengthened brain. While remembering people's faces, Li Wenyuan secretly thought in his heart: Where is this team that came to greet me, this is clearly here to demonstrate against me, but it is just putting pressure on me in disguise, telling me that they are the same group. If I move any of them, the rest will come against me. Although I won't be confronted in the open, and there will be no physical confrontation, but secretly inaction or stumbling in my way can make me uncomfortable for a while.
But thinking of this, Li Wenyuan paused, this is actually good. Lest you have to worry about how to find out who is on the side of the Night Stalker, who is on the neutral side, and who is on your side? But now it's a great opportunity, and now all of them are standing in front of them. Li Wenyuan watched it several times, and finally remembered the appearance of these people clearly. Afterwards, accompanied by the night owl commander and the Zhangye county guard, he shook hands with these people one by one, and focused on observing the attitude of these people towards the night owl commander. After holding the whole circle, Li Wenyuan already had a rough guess about these people who betrayed him.
