Chapter 169: Teasing
As soon as it gets dark, the whole city falls into darkness, and the streets without street lamps suddenly fall silent, except for the fleeing people who have shrunk on the side of the streets, occasionally making various noises.
In this case, the number of people patrolling the night has increased a lot, after all, no one knows if there will be any trouble, and there will always be a sense of danger at night.
Liu Ji and the others slowly approached the vicinity of the palace, this area was more heavily guarded than elsewhere, groups of patrols walked back and forth, torches were lit everywhere, and the two of them sneaked to the left and right respectively, and only returned after a while to return to their lives.
"There are no gaps." A sharp mouth is concise.
Chen Jin's words were a little more, but the meaning was the same: "A patrol, divided into three teams, with a very short interval in between, with the height of the palace, we can only help each other to climb, we don't have enough time." ”
As a result, Liu Ji also thought of it, if the city is facing a great enemy, the guards of the palace must be the top priority, maybe the Tubo people live in it, this is what he wants to know, but now there is no chance, it is not worth taking risks for such a point.
"Why don't you tie up a defender and ask?" He is not in a hurry, Chen Jin is a little anxious, it is finally his turn, and no one wants to return in vain.
"No, if there is one less person, they will definitely search the whole city, and then it will be exposed."
Liu Ji rejected his proposal without hesitation, it's not that this idea can't work, there is really no other way, it is the most direct and effective to catch someone to ask, but it is too early to do so.
In this way, several of them shrank in a dark corner, divided into several groups, and stared at the movement of the palace until the early morning of the next day, there was nothing worth noting, and there were few Tibetan figures.
Could it be that I was wrong?
Seeing that the sky was already bright, Liu Ji woke up several of his subordinates who were on rotation: "You each go to the city to find out, where is the station of the Tubo people, how many people they have, and if there is the whereabouts of Shang Jiezan, it would be better." ”
Several people took the order and left, and there was only one person left by his side, who saw that he didn't mention himself, and he didn't care, and the palace also needed people, he looked at it unconsciously, and was suddenly stunned.
"A Tibetan woman has come out."
When Liu Ji heard this, he was also stunned, why is this Tibetan woman so familiar?
Zeng Jiuniang came out of the palace with two maids, and a caravan was already waiting at the bottom of the steps, and it was her subordinate Xiao Wu who was driving the car, because he came overnight, he looked a little tired.
"Lady ......"
Zeng Jiuniang stopped his words with her eyes, and walked to the back of the car with a natural expression.
Xiao Wu jumped into the front seat of the car, waited for them to get into the car, shouted, and drove the car forward.
They did not leave the city, but stopped at a house not far from the palace, the gate of which was wide, and the car drove directly into it, and then quickly closed.
"Tell me, what's wrong?" Zeng Jiuniang got out of the car with the help of the maid, and Xiao Wu was already waiting outside.
"That man came to our place, and he couldn't find you, maybe he would come here."
Zeng Jiuniang let out an indifferent "oh" with a faint expression, and asked as she walked inside, "How many people did he bring?" ”
"Less than four hundred, all of them are routs, and they can't become any climate."
"I know, you go and rest, let people go outside the city to keep an eye on it, and report it as soon as there is news of that person."
Zeng Jiuniang ordered to go down, the maids all bowed down, she walked into the middle of the room, the layout was very simple, there was nothing luxurious, only on the side of the table against the wall, there was a small Buddha statue, exactly the same as the sculpture in the hole on the mountain.
She fell to her knees on a brocade mat, clasped her hands together, and muttered the scriptures in her mouth, and only in this situation could she find peace of mind.
There was no light in the room, and it was a little dark, and after a while, when she opened her eyes, she was blocked by a large shadow, and she was in a trance like a human form, which startled her.
"Nine Niangzi, meet again."
Having lived here for decades, she was still a little uncomfortable when she heard the Chinese dialect at first glance, and when she came to her senses, she suddenly felt that this voice sounded a little familiar.
"Is that you? How did you end up here. ”
"I missed you, I couldn't find you anywhere, I didn't expect to meet here." Liu Ji's words made her stunned for a moment, and then she "giggled" and laughed.
"Really?"
"It's true that I think you're true, it's true that I can't find it everywhere, and it's true when I meet you here." The other party was the first woman he met in this time and space, and he was quite impressed.
Zeng Jiuniang was amused by him, and the hairpin beads on her head "clicked", she didn't know why, she knew that the other party was laughing, but she was still very happy, and she even forgot that he had sneaked into his own house, maybe he had some bad intentions.
It's a strange feeling, and it never seems to be guarded, even if it's once so close.
After laughing for a while, she seemed to notice her gaffe, stood up a little embarrassed, turned her head, and the young man in the shadows could only see between her eyebrows and eyes, vaguely the same as before.
"Are you over 16? What month is it. ”
"Why, I have taken a fancy to me, I want to be in tune, sister, the Tubo people don't have this custom, let's keep everything simple."
Zeng Jiuniang didn't care about his frivolity, and said unexpectedly: "If my son is still alive, he should be 16." ”
A gentle sentence made Liu Ji speechless for a moment, this sister is really a topic killer.
"Have you ever had a son? What about the husband? ”
Zeng Jiuniang didn't seem to want to talk to him about this topic, waved her hand and said, "What do you want to spy on when you came into the city?" I can help you. ”
"But I don't know if I should trust you."
Liu Ji's words made her stunned.
"I don't know what happened in He Bolao City, it's Xi Dongzan, it's that person who makes his own opinion, he wants your life, not me."
"What's the difference? Aren't you his woman, and if we don't escape, will you feel guilty about it? ”
"So you know it all, yes, if you can sneak in here, it's the same elsewhere." Zeng Jiuniang showed a wry smile: "So, are you here to kill me today?" ”
"I can't do it, I've grown so big, I haven't killed a woman with my own hands." Liu Ji shook his head and said bluntly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a graceful figure walk to his side, exuding a charming fragrance, and then a tender hand stroked his cheek.
Not again.
