The rain is pouring like a note, this heavy rain that has been eaten for several months, it is menacing, and the rain curtain between heaven and earth is connected together, as if pouring down from the sky, shrouding the entire Chang'an in the rain curtain.

In the cloudy sky, lightning rushed like a silver snake, and in an instant, the bright light penetrated the rain curtain, instantly illuminating Chang'an, which was shrouded in the rain curtain, leaving a 'boom' thunder.

The war horse that sat down, under the urging of Zhao Chen, flew with four hooves, and the sorrowful cry of 'boom' in his mouth carried the anxious Zhao Chen and galloped towards the city gate.

At this time, there were no pedestrians on the street, and the pouring rain fell on the street made of loess, and it was only a moment before it turned into a piece of mud.

Zhao Chen's body was completely soaked by heavy rain, and the rain on his hair flowed down his cheeks, blurring his vision.

Mingde Gate, as early as when the street drum sounded, it had been closed, Zhao Chen rode at a gallop, far away, before he reached the city gate, he heard a loud shout on the city gate, like a spring thunder explosion: "Who is riding on a rainy night, looking for death?" ”

When the loud shout came, dozens of torches suddenly lit up at the city gate, instantly illuminating the city gate on a rainy night, and dozens of people were reflected under the firelight, holding crossbow arrows, facing Zhao Chen who was galloping.

"I'm Chang'an Marquis Zhao Chen!" Zhao Chen raised his head on horseback, and shouted loudly at the A army on the city gate: "Open the city gate, Benhou has something important to go out of the city!" ”

The name of the person, the shadow of the tree, the name of Zhao Chen, the Marquis of Chang'an, is now a household name in Chang'an, and the army on the city gate, as soon as he heard Zhao Chen's name, the originally aggressive person immediately fell silent, as if he was hesitating about something.

"Dare to ask Chang'an Hou. Can there be a Suiyin out of the city? A moment later, the general who had just drunk at the city gate. Suddenly, he held a torch and climbed to the female wall. Zhao Chen, looking below, asked.

"No!" Zhao Chen didn't think about it, so he said directly: "Open the city gate and let Ben Hou out, and Ben Hou will make up for it after Suiyin!" ”

"Master Hou forgives your sins!" The generals on the city gate, when they heard that Zhao Chen did not have a Suiyin to leave the city, he immediately said in embarrassment: "Without Suiyin, the last general will forgive his fate, and the Hou Ye please understand!" ”

"Ben Hou said it, and he will make up for it later!" Zhao Chen was anxious, and when he heard the general's words. Immediately, he said loudly: "This matter is very important, and it cannot be delayed for a moment!" ”

"Lord Hou forgives the sin, the city gate really can't be opened!" The general on the city gate, hearing Zhao Chen's words, said to Zhao Chen in embarrassment: "However, if Hou Ye really wants to go out of the city urgently, the last general and others can send Hou Ye down from the city wall, and in the military camp outside, they can also provide mounts for Hou Ye!" ”

There is no choice. When Zhao Chen heard this, he immediately turned over and dismounted, ran to the wooden fence on the side of the city gate, and entered the wooden fence. Led by a soldier, go up the road to the city wall.

The rain below is like a pour, and the city wall is like splashing water. Dense like splashing water, coming towards you. The choking man can't even open his eyes.

More than a dozen soldiers wearing hats lowered the hanging baskets outside the city wall. Wait until Zhao Chen gets inside.

The bearded general who had just spoken, only then did he confess to Zhao Chen, and waved his hand at the soldiers, and the hanging basket slowly hung down from the city wall several meters high.

Naturally, there was also a military camp outside the city, and when Zhao Chen came down from the city wall, three soldiers wearing hats had already led a mount, each sitting on horseback, and waited below.

"Go to the Baqiao!" Zhao Chen came out of the hanging basket, said to the three soldiers, immediately turned over and got on his horse, and in the blink of an eye, the four horses rushed into the rain.

"Report this to the general!" Watching Zhao Chen and his party gallop away from a distance, the bearded general just now immediately put a letter into a bamboo tube, handed it to a soldier beside him, and sent the soldier to the general's mansion.

At this time, the heavy rain between heaven and earth formed a huge rain curtain, and a painting boat located on the Baqiao Bridge slowly left the dock and sailed into Weishui.

In one of the cabins of the painting boat, Ji Ning'er sat there quietly, listening to the pouring rain outside, putting her knees together and resting her chin on her knees, not knowing what she was thinking.

At this moment, the hatch of the cabin was pushed open, and Jiang Chao, who was soaking wet, walked into the cabin with a cold wind from the outside.

"Don't you really want to see him?" Entering the cabin, Jiang Chao bowed slightly, looked at Ji Ning'er who was sitting there seriously, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Actually, it's still too late, as long as..."

"He said he would go to Lingnan in a year!" Ji Ning'er didn't wait for Jiang Chao to say the second half of the sentence, suddenly interrupted Jiang Chao's words, and said without raising her head: "I will wait for him in Lingnan!" ”

"So why bother!" Jiang Chao didn't understand very much, and when he heard Ji Ning'er's words, he scratched his head vigorously, looked at Ji Ning'er in confusion and said, "Since you like that bastard, stay in Chang'an!" ”

"No!" When Ji Ning'er heard this, she immediately flattened her mouth aggrievedly, and said as if she was angry: "I prefer to wait for him in Lingnan, if he doesn't come, I will... I'm just..."

"What are you?" Jiang Chao looked at Ji Ning'er with a headache, some really couldn't figure it out, the matter between Ji Ning'er and Zhao Chen, when I saw Ji Ning'er there, I would take it, and I didn't say why, I couldn't help but pouted and asked.

"Listen!" At this time, Ji Ning'er suddenly turned her head, frowned slightly, and said, "There seems to be someone calling outside!" ”

"Hahaha!" When Jiang Chao heard Ji Ning'er's words, he couldn't help but open his mouth and laugh all of a sudden, looked at Ji Ning'er, and said with a smile: "It's pouring rain outside, who is so crazy that he would stay outside in the heavy rain!" ”

However, as soon as Jiang Chao's words fell, an extremely clear voice suddenly came into the cabin from the rainy night outside.

The voice was a little angry, but even in the cabin, Jiang Chao and Ji Ning'er could hear it, and this angry voice was made by Zhao Chen.

"No, it won't!" Jiang Chao heard Zhao Chen's voice from outside, the expression on his face, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, with an incredible look, and said in a low voice.

As soon as the words fell, he suddenly turned around, opened the hatch and walked out.

It was pouring rain outside, connecting the entire world into a rain curtain, however, when Jiang Chao walked out of the cabin, he saw Zhao Chen riding on a horse, roaring at the painting boat in the rain curtain of the sky.

"Stop!" Zhao Chen urged the sitted war horse to gallop along the bank of Weishui, while rushing at the painting boat that was going down the water, and yelled angrily: "I told you to stop, did you hear it!" Stop, stop at once..."

"It's really him!" Jiang Chao opened his mouth in slight surprise, looked at Zhao Chen who was chasing down Weishui, and after a while, he suddenly turned around and said to Ji Ning'er in the cabin.

It's just that as soon as these words fell, Ji Ning'er, who was originally pitiful, suddenly stood up, rushed out of the cabin like a gust of wind, and knocked Jiang Chao who was standing at the door of the cabin to the side.

"You're going back!" As soon as Ji Ning'er rushed out of the cabin, she saw Zhao Chen who was galloping in the rain, and the tears suddenly gushed out, holding the side of the boat, and crying desperately at Zhao Chen, who was chasing after him on the shore.

"Back to your sister, I told you to stop, didn't you hear?" Zhao Chen saw Ji Ning'er on the side of the boat through the heavy rain curtain, and when he heard Ji Ning'er call him back, he immediately yelled at Ji Ning'er angrily.

"I don't!" Ji Ning'er cried at Zhao Chen: "You promised me, you want to go to Lingnan, I will wait for you in Lingnan!" ”

At this time, the torrential rain was like a note, drenching the two sides of the river into mud, the war horses kept slipping, and a few times, almost knelt on the ground, Zhao Chen kept urging, and shouted hoarsely at the painting boat.

It's a pity that the painting boat went down the river, and the speed was getting faster and faster, but Ji Ning'er stubbornly didn't let the painting boat stop, stubbornly climbed on the side of the boat, and cried at Zhao Chen on the shore: "Go back, I will wait for you in Lingnan, and I will wait for you to come to Lingnan!" ”

"!" Zhao Chen waved his horsewhip angrily, looked at the painting boat that was getting farther and farther away, and scolded, so he had to say loudly to Ji Ning'er: "Okay, just wait for me for a year, and in a year I will go to Lingnan and personally pick you up in Chang'an!" ”

"I'll wait!" The painting boat has become farther and farther away from Zhao Chen, and what Ji Ning'er shouted, basically Zhao Chen is already difficult to hear, but Ji Ning'er still cried: "I'm waiting for you to come to Lingnan and take me to the sea..."

The painting boat is already far away from Zhao Chen, and in the rain curtain of the day, Zhao Chen's figure is full of shadows, but Ji Ning'er is still on the side of the ship, chattering: "Actually, I came to Chang'an this time, and I am very happy, because I am very stupid, I always do wrong things, and I want to work hard, but I always can't do it well..."

"It's all out of sight!" Jiang Chao, who was behind Ji Ning'er, draped a hat on Ji Ning'er, patted Ji Ning'er's thin shoulder, and whispered.

"I know!" When Ji Ning'er heard Jiang Chao's words, she cried with a flat mouth: "However, I don't dare to say these words to him, only in this way can I dare to say it loudly!" ”

When Jiang Chao heard this, he couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart, and then brought Ji Ning'er, who was already soaking wet, back to the cabin.

The painting boat is in the rain curtain, down the water, at first you can still see the shadow of the painting boat, but later, there is only a large rain curtain left in the whole world, and the rain is pouring in the ears, as if the world is only left with the sound of 'swish' rain.

The three soldiers who came with Zhao Chen stood quietly behind Zhao Chen, like clay sculptures, and the rainstorm fell on the hat on their body, and then flowed along the hat to the horse under the crotch.

Ji Ning'er finally left, Zhao Chen stood on the shore, staring blankly at the painting boat that disappeared into the rain curtain, and Ji Ning'er's voice just now kept flashing in his mind

After a long time, Zhao Chen suddenly sighed, looked at the surface of the Weishui River that had turned into a rain curtain, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Then wait for me for a year!" ”

The voice fell, and then, together with the three soldiers who came with him, he wanted to gallop towards Chang'an, which was like a monster in the rain. (To be continued.) )
