Chapter 100: Out of the City
"Senior brother, why did Tingwei come to arrest you? The day before yesterday, I heard my father say that you were in Runan to quell the rebellion, why did you appear in Luoyang? Cai Yan ordered two more lamps to be added to make the chessboard brighter, although she is a talented woman, but she does not have the ability to close her eyes like Ye Zhao, her chess skills are no worse than Ye Zhao, but this vision is not as clear as Ye Zhao's, and at the same time, she is also quite curious about Ye Zhao's sudden appearance.
Ye Zhao came to Cai's Mansion to see Cai Yong directly, and Cai Yan naturally didn't know.
"I had something important to discuss with my teacher, and I came here in the starry night, and I wanted to leave after finishing the matter, but who knew that such a thing would happen." Ye Zhao shook his head, the matter of the flat strategy, now it seems that the less people know, the better, at least before reporting to the imperial court, of course, Liu Wei is a shortcut, but he doesn't want to take this road, he doesn't want to give people the feeling of relying on women to eat.
Not to mention......
Glancing at Liu Wei who was puffing out her cheeks on the side, Ye Zhao secretly shook his head in his heart, the two sides are not even in friendship now, God knows if this princess has a grudge against herself in her heart.
"What do you think I do?" Liu Wei was surprisingly keen, and when she saw Ye Zhao looking at her, she glared back.
Cai Yan hurriedly interrupted: "Why don't you send someone to say that the senior brother is the commander of the first army, and this unauthorized resignation, if the responsibility is realized, it will not be light." ”
"It's not clear to others, I have to come." Ye Zhao shook his head, what Ping Liuce wrote was just an outline, how to implement and promote, in a short period of time, he couldn't explain it clearly to others, but not everyone has the comprehension of Cai Yong and Lu Zhi, at least there is no such figure around Ye Zhao for the time being, otherwise he wouldn't have to commit crimes against the wind.
Cai Yan nodded when he heard this, so he didn't ask any more, and instead worried about Ye Zhao's problem of going out of the city: "Jing Tingwei is making such a fuss, and Senior Brother will want to get out of the city tomorrow, and I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”
"This is not difficult, let Dian Wei hold the token, I pretend to be an ordinary sergeant out of the city, in this Luoyang City, there are not many people who know me, a little disguise, even if they know, it is mostly a one-sided relationship, a little disguise is enough." Ye Zhao said with a smile: "It's too tired for my junior sister to bother, but it's Zhao's fault." ”
"Senior brother's words are serious." Cai Yan shook his head.
"It's not early, and it's time for me to take my leave." After Ye Zhao was sure that Tingwei had left Cai's mansion, he got up and said goodbye to the two girls, and then looked at Liu Wei and said, "Princess, there are many offences today, if he has the opportunity to come to Luoyang in the future, he will prepare a big gift for the princess to apologize." ”
"Hmph, you are interested, but if your gift does not satisfy this princess, then stop blaming this princess for fighting with you!" Liu Wei snorted coldly.
Ye Zhao nodded, saluted the two girls again, and walked straight to the courtyard gate.
At the gate of the inner courtyard, Wu Qiu Yi had already left, and when he learned that the princess was also in Cai's Mansion, Wu Qiu Yi was completely relieved, no matter what, he had an explanation from above, Luoyang Yiba was here, don't say that he himself, even if Ting Wei came in person, it would not work.
The troops were collected very simply, and they were pushed away without any hesitation, and it was not until this moment that Cai Yong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Teacher." After Ye Zhao said goodbye to Cai Yan, he happened to meet Cai Yong, who came back with Dian Wei, and stepped forward and saluted: "But it is causing trouble to the teacher." ”
"There is a reason for this, I can't complain about you, this flat stream strategy is enough to make my Han country stable, but if I am caught by that court lieutenant today, I will have to suffer some hardships." Cai Yong shook his head and looked at Ye Zhao and said: "I wanted to leave you for breakfast, but now it seems that the two of you should leave as soon as possible, Tingwei and Luoyang Ling are not subordinate to each other, and it is impossible to be wanted by you too quickly, the city gate is open on the fifth watch, and now it is the third watch, you immediately pack your bags, don't go to the south gate, go to the west gate, lest Tingwei block you at the south gate." ”
There are twelve gates in Luoyang, Tingwei is only in charge of the prison, and has no military power, and there are only one or two hundred people under Tingwei who can be mobilized.
"Thank you for your advice." Ye Zhao nodded and said.
"In addition, your official documents can no longer be used, so as not to make things difficult for the court lieutenant, I am friends with Zhijin Wu, here is a token given to me in the past, you can go out of the city with this order, no one will make it difficult for you, and I will ask Cai An to deliver it to you later." Cai Yong thought for a while.
"There is a teacher who cares." Ye Zhao nodded, and did not refuse, he had to get out of the city as soon as possible, otherwise if he stayed in Luoyang for a while, his situation would be a little more difficult.
"Don't say these polite words, although you violated the law this time, what you did was for the sake of this great Han society, the people of the world, and I am not the one who does not know how to be flexible." Cai Yong shook his head and said, "It's just the war in Runan, can you have confidence?" ”
"When I get back, it's pretty much it." Ye Zhao nodded, the battle of Runan seems to be very different, but this is different from those battles that won more with less, the thief army seems to be strong, but in fact there are too many shortcomings, even if there are many people, under a plate of scattered sand, it is not difficult to break it, not to mention that Ye Zhao has already planted the seeds of infighting for them again, and this time when they go back, it is time to start harvesting.
"Captain Ting's strange arrival." Cai Yong thought for a while and said: "The old man suspects that someone wants to compete with you, you should go back quickly, I am afraid that there will be changes, the sooner you break the enemy, the better!" ”
Ye Zhao's face became solemn when he heard this, and he nodded solemnly and said, "Thank you for your advice, Zhao Ming will remember it in my heart." ”
"Go pack up and get ready to go." Cai Yong sighed and waved at Ye Zhao.
"The student quits." Ye Zhao saluted, and immediately took Dian Wei back to pack up.
When I arrived at the guest room, I saw Wei Zheng coming out of Wei Zhao's room with a depressed face, and when I saw Ye Zhao, I had a ghostly expression, and hurriedly returned to my room and closed the door.
"Lord, this kid was sneaky before, could it be him?" Dian Wei looked at the direction Wei Zheng left and said in a low voice.
"He's not that powerful!" Ye Zhao shook his head, glanced at Wei Qi's door, and snorted coldly, even so, just looking at Wei Zheng's expression, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with this kid, but at this moment in Cai Yong's house, he didn't want to make trouble anymore, after all, Cai Yong's face still had to be given, and it was best not to have any more twists and turns now.
Before the fifth watch, Ye Zhao and Dian Wei changed their outfits, Dian Wei pretended to be a partial general, Ye Zhao put on the clothes of a small soldier, the two led the horses, brought bags and tokens, and waited early near the West Gate.
Soon after Ye Zhao left, he saw Wu Qiu Yi coming in a hurry with a group of people, and said to the soldiers guarding the city: "Has anyone ever left the city?" ”
"Yes, only then can I go out of the city on business under the Jinwu Gate." The captain of the city gate nodded.
"This is a warrant from He/Nanyin, and anyone who holds an official document in the direction of Runan will be seized." Wu Qiu Yi was obedient and handed over to the captain of the city gate.
"Whoa!" The captain of the city gate did not ask the reason, and after confirming the content of the official document, he solemnly received the order.
On the other side, Ye Zhao walked ten miles after leaving the city before stopping to rest, because it was to go to the West Gate, their route had deviated, and they needed to bypass Luoyang and go to the Tiger Prison Pass, and turn back to Runan, but in this way, they could not rush back to Runan in one day and one night as they came, and it would take at least two days to travel.
"Lord, it's not an unseemly deed, why do you want to be so sneaky?" After leaving the city, Dian Wei and Ye Zhao changed their clothes, Dian Wei was a little indignant for Ye Zhao, although he didn't know what the big truth was, but just saw that Cai Yong didn't like to violate the principles for Ye Zhao, so he knew that what Ye Zhao did was a great thing, but he had to shrink his head like a turtle when he did good deeds, which made him very unhappy.
"After all, it violated the laws of the imperial court, and besides, there are people behind this matter who are fueling the troubles and want to prevent us from going back, we must rush back to Runan as soon as possible. Ye Zhao shook his head, sometimes the truth and the law are not consistent.
"Don't worry, my lord, there is nothing else in Dian Wei, but this strength and endurance are never lacking." Dian Wei said with a smile, compared to the prosperity of Luoyang, which made him very uncomfortable, he preferred the unrestrained feeling on the battlefield.
Ye Zhao nodded, and was about to set off, but a group of people appeared in front of him, there were not many people, but there were about a hundred people, but they were carrying a lot of goods, it looked like a welcoming team, in front of the team, there was a big flag fluttering fiercely in the wind, and the book was ...... Ha Dong Wei!
The Wei family?
Ye Zhao narrowed his eyes, signaled Dian Wei not to hurry away, and took Dian Wei to choose a secluded place to observe.
It's close, Ye Zhao can be sure that this is the greeting team of the Hedong Wei family, when he chatted with Cai An yesterday, he knew that Cai Yan's marriage would be presided over by the Son of Heaven himself, although the specific wedding date has not yet been set, Cai Yong and the Son of Heaven feel that it should be held after the Yellow Turban is pacified, but in order to show the importance of this marriage, Wei Zhongdao has to come to Luoyang in advance to prepare.
Ye Zhao has the ability to never forget, he once met with Wei Zhongdao, and naturally recognized that the man who rode the horse at the front, looked gentle and elegant, but was full of sickness, and the man who couldn't help but be weak was Wei Zhongdao.
"Lord, do you recognize?" Dian Wei doesn't know a single big character, so naturally he doesn't know which family this is.
"The second son of the Hedong Wei family, Wei Zhongdao, came here this time to prepare to marry his junior sister." Ye Zhao looked at Wei Zhongdao coldly, he didn't have any grudges with this person, but his grievances with the Wei family were already early, from the time he was persecuted by Wei Xian in Hanoi, and even until he later became the commander of Ma Cheng, there was the shadow of the Wei family behind him.
"Do you want to ...... the lord" Dian Wei heard this, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, although Ye Zhao said last night that Wei Zheng did not have the ability to transfer the court captain, he still felt that the people of the Wei family did not have a good thing.
"Let's go!" Ye Zhao looked at the Wei family team that was getting closer and closer, turned over and got on the horse, and then in Dian Wei's stunned gaze, he found a black cloth to wrap his face and forehead, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed.
Dian Wei understood in seconds, and he also followed Ye Zhao's example to wrap his rugged face firmly, and then the two of them rode their horses and rushed forward in this way.
Seeing that these two people were dressed strangely, the people of the Wei family took out their weapons one after another to guard against them, but Ye Zhao and Dian Wei ignored them and walked straight forward.
Just when the people of the Wei family breathed a sigh of relief, they saw that Ye Zhao, who had already staggered by, suddenly turned around on horseback, and there was already a small crossbow in his hand, and when everyone couldn't react, an arrow shot out, right in the back of Wei Zhongdao's head, and the arrow cluster stabbed directly from the forehead, and the blood mixed with the brain surged out in the exclamations of a group of Wei family's private soldiers, Wei Zhongdao didn't even snort, just planted straight and straight from the horse's back without a sound.
Behind them, the exclamations and angry scolding sounded together, but Ye Zhao and Dian Wei had already ridden away and disappeared after a while. 8)
