Chapter 66: The Stranger

The wind whined the thatch by the river, the sweat on Yun Lang's face continued to drip from his chin, he wanted to run, but there was a clear voice in his head telling him - don't move!

Liu Er's long sword had already been drawn, and his burly body was protecting Yun Lang, but Yun Lang didn't feel any sense of security.

As a smart person, seeing Yun Lang glancing at him anxiously, Sima Qian didn't say a word, he tucked the hem of his robe into his belt, turned around, and ran away!

A blue wolf the size of a calf poked its head out from behind the pile of stones, only glanced at Yun Lang with its pale yellow eyes, and slowly retracted its head.

"Master, let's go!"

Liu Er's voice seemed to be squeezed out of his throat.

Yun Lang didn't move, because he saw a bright bald head rising from the pile of stones, and then he saw a face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Although the egg had no hair, no eyebrows, and no beard, he recognized it as a Han Chinese face from the outline of his facial features.

Although he saw a hint of mockery in the egg's eyes, the strong sense of oppression that had just receded like a tide.

"Sima Yunlang, the captain of the Han Cavalry Army, is here, and the common people have not stepped forward to salute!" Yun Lang straightened up and said in a loud voice.

The egg head was obviously a little stunned, and after a while, he pointed his finger at his nose and said, "Are you talking about the common people I am talking about?" ”

Since seeing that Han face and hearing the pure Chang'an dialect, Yun Lang's heart has become more stable.

Waving his hand to make Liu Er pay attention to the wolf, he smiled at the egg head and said, "Could it be that you are an official?" ”

He Chou You's hand scratched on the head of the egg, thought for a while, and said: "It should be, forty years ago, I was a black yarn crown, and Emperor Wen praised me at that time, as if he had promoted me two or three times, and then the first emperor also promoted me to an official position so many times, but His Majesty didn't seem to have promoted me to an official position since he ascended the throne." ”

Yun Lang's face twitched twice, the black yarn crown is the common name of the Zhonghuangmen, the rank of the Zhonghuangmen is more than one hundred, and there are three hundred dans of the Huangmen Order on it, six hundred dans of the small Huangmen, eight hundred dans of the Huangmen Shilang, and then a thousand dans of the damned permanent servant, this is the emperor's close minister, generally not held by the eunuch, only a very few eunuchs can hold this official position, and the Zhongchang servant is already the highest official position that the eunuch can reach.

For example, Gillian's Da Changqiu is analogous to the middle waiter......

Emperor Wen promoted him two or three times, and the first emperor gave him a promotion, so this guy is definitely a regular servant, as for the reason why Liu Che didn't give him a promotion, it is likely that this guy's official position has been promoted to the top and cannot be promoted.

Thinking of this, Yun Lang bowed down and saluted: "Xiaguan Cavalry Captain Army Sima Yunlang, please see Shangguan Yinxin!" ”

He Chou nodded with a smile and said, "He is a person who abides by the rules." The old man's favorite is the one who abides by the rules. ”

After speaking, he walked out from behind the pile of stones, took out a seal letter from the wolf's skin jacket, handed it to Yun Lang with both hands, and said, "Please ride the commander of the army Sima to check the seal!" ”

The seal is not big, it is only an inch square, it is a copper seal, Yun Lang looked at the seal, a little strange, just sighed on the copper seal, and pressed it on the back of his hand.

Then, on the back of his hand, the eight words of the Qin Command, the Commander and the Shaofu Order, appeared.

The seal letter is right, the standard Han official system, the copper material is also right, and the inscription is even more decent, that is, the official title is very strange.

Yun Lang returned the seal letter with both hands, and said: "I don't know that Shangguan is coming, Yun Lang is guilty of death, but I don't know where Shangguan is from, and Yun Lang can also wash the dust for Shangguan." ”

He Chou said with a smile: "Originally, there were four servants, one fell off the horse and broke his neck when the horse was rushing at night, and the intestines of the other horse rider slipped out of the valley road and stayed in Baishan Mountain, and the other two were bitten to death by those beasts. ”

Yun Lang looked in the direction of He Chou's finger, and saw eight hungry wolves tied to a rope, lying quietly on the snow, very obedient.

At the end of the rope was a chair-shaped climbing plow, and it seemed that the old eunuch had come on a wolf sled.

Yun Lang had been thinking about making a set of dog sleds to play here, but he didn't expect this old eunuch to use a wolf ......

He Chou saw Yun Lang looking at his wolf with envy, so he said a little proudly: "The beasts in the north are indeed more than the divine horses in Guanzhong. ”

The servants and the war horses were all bitten to death by wolves, and He Chou was very proud of his means of taming these hungry wolves.

"Shangguan's means are good, Yun Lang admires, admires."

He Chou You seemed to remember something, looked at Yun Lang and said, "You're not afraid?" ”

Yun Lang shook his head suspiciously: "At the beginning, these wolves gave me some pressure, and when the lower official knew that these wolves were used by the upper official to pull the cart, he naturally wouldn't be afraid." ”

He Chou looked at Yun Lang and said, "I mean, you're not afraid of me?" ”

Yun Lang arched his hand and said: "To Shangguan, this is the proper meaning, as for being afraid?" Where to start? ”

He Chou heard Yun Lang say this, smiled more and more kindly, rubbed his bald head and said: "I look ugly, I am often surrounded by people, and when I see that you don't avoid it, I will ask casually."

Okay, let's not talk about it, go to the main gate of the city in the middle of the night, the guards of the city do not open the door, and shoot with crossbow arrows, so I have to come to the river and wait for dawn, since you are here, take the old man into the city quickly, eat some hot food to drive away the cold. ”

Yun Lang saw that the Shangguan surnamed He was reluctant to say what he meant, and he didn't think so, so he invited the old guy to go first, as for the wolves, it was Liu Er's trouble, and he didn't care.

Sima Qian ran quickly, and when Yun Lang was talking to the egg-headed man, Cao Xiang had already led a group of personal soldiers over.

He Chou looked at Cao Xiang with a smile and exclaimed: "In the past, I saw the boy who would pee his pants with the old man, but now he dares to lead the troops to fight, tsk, rare, rare......"

Cao Xiang ran fast, but the bottom was there, and no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't run as fast as the guards.

When the guards surrounded the eggheads, Cao Xiang came to Yun Lang panting, holding his knees and saying, "What danger?" ”

Yun Lang was a little moved, when he encountered danger, Cao Xiang was able to run over breathlessly, which was very rare.

"There are no enemies, only Shangguan!"

"Shangguan? Is there a king in the moat? ”

When Cao Xiang heard Yun Lang say that there was no enemy, it was the envoy of the imperial court who came, and his mouth immediately became vicious.

He may be very afraid of wolves, very afraid of the Huns, as for Shangguan? In general, he is!

He Chou rubbed his bald head with four fingers and said, "It's really a bit like Wang Ba!" ”

Cao Xiang laughed when he heard this, and then he raised his head to see He Chouyou, the smile that had just been revealed froze in an instant, his knees were weak, and he knelt on the pebbles by the river with a pop, and the pebbles under him were wet at a speed visible to the naked eye......

He Chou looked at the urine stains that fell on the stone, frowned, and said, "Why are you still peeing your pants?" ”

"Old ...... Ancestors! ”

He Chou smiled happily: "Do you still recognize me?" Don't you say I'm the eighth king? ”

Cao Xiang replied extremely quickly: "I am Xiao Wang Ba!" ”

Since seeing Cao Xiang, He Chou's smile has not faded.

"Your mother disliked your father back then, saying that he was not a hero and refused to marry, so the first emperor asked the old man to admonish one or two.

Your mother finally resisted the old man for three days before she softened, you have grown up, and you haven't even carried a pillar of incense, alas, from this point of view, your mother was not wrong back then, and your father is indeed not a hero. ”

Although Cao Xiang's body was shaking, he replied quickly: "My father is indeed not a hero, and my mother is married at a loss." ”

Yun Lang felt very embarrassed, and hugged Cao Xiang to drag him up from the ground, if this nest was seen by more people, he would have no face to see people in the future.

Yun Lang wanted to drag Cao Xiang up, but Cao Xiang wanted to pull Yun Lang to kneel down together, his strength was so great that Yun Lang was dragged by him.

"Get up, your brother hopes you have more backbone, you are a good brother, you are already a marquis, stand up, don't lose the face of the noble dynasty."

He Chou had spoken, and Cao Xiang immediately stood up, but he couldn't stand steadily, and he barely stood still by holding Yun Lang's arm.

"Into town!"
