The wind and snow fluttered unscrupulously in the small town of Bazhou, rushing into the people who walked out of the warm houses and onto the streets.

Xue Rengui and Zhang Cambodia walked in front with Wang Bo in their arms, a black fur coat was draped over Wang Bo's thin body, and the shoes on his feet were replaced with warm and dry Gaobang leather boots.

Heiya Changzhi took the governor of Bazhou, surrounded by the personal guards and two carriages, followed behind the three of them, and hurriedly walked towards Li Xian's mansion.

The snow under their feet creaked, and it seemed to step on the hearts of the governor of Bazhou and Wang Bo, but at this moment, the mood of the two was very different.

One sees hope in despair, and the other sees despair in comfort.

Zhang Cambodia looked at the "mansion" covered by wind and snow, saying that it was a mansion, but there were two more rows of houses than ordinary settlers, the adobe courtyard wall was snow-white, and a few lonely trees in the courtyard were also covered with snow.

At the gate of the dilapidated mansion, the gate has long been unable to see the original color, and the two big door knockers have also been covered with snow, Wang Bo stretched out his hand that had just warmed up, skillfully twisted and pushed, and then opened the door, stretched out his hand and asked Xue Rengui and others to enter.

The sound of scratching and pulling came from the courtyard in an instant, and Xue Rengui and Zhang Cambodia looked curiously at Wang Bo, who was hurriedly following.

"King Pei's servant, in order not to be frozen in the cold, so he simply swept the yard to keep warm." Wang Bo faced Zhang Cambodia back then, and the entanglements along the way have gradually been relieved, and he has gradually accepted the current disparity between each other emotionally.

"Pei Wang is here?" Zhang Cambodia's brows are tightly locked, and he warms his body by clearing snow? This has to be cold enough to come up with a solution!

"In the backyard." Wang Bo said while leading Xue Rengui and Zhang Cambodia forward.

When passing by those more than ten or twenty domestic servants, the sound of snow clearing stopped instantly, in the past few years, no one has ever come to King Pei's mansion, even if it is the governor of Bazhou, he just called King Pei out at the door, and explained at the door casually, no official has ever entered this courtyard.

But today, through the wind and snow in front of them, I saw that the governor of Naba Prefecture was also impressively listed, and even a few people they knew well in Chang'an were also among them.

Looking at Xue Rengui, Zhang Cambodia, and Hei Yan Changzhi, the three people with solemn faces, more than twenty slaves held brooms tied with branches, as if they were frozen in the wind and snow.

"Could it be that the time has come for King Pei? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, is this going to get rid of the troubles? ”

The dozens of soldiers in helmets and armor behind him made the hearts of these domestic servants suddenly fall into an ice cave, and they watched numbly as they hurriedly walked towards the backyard where King Pei lived.

"Right here." Everyone crossed the front yard and came to the small backyard, and the soldiers behind them were still standing in the front yard with their tails at the moment, which was enough to imagine how small this so-called mansion was.

Wang Bo looked at the closed door, stood twenty steps away with Xue Rengui and the others, quietly looking at the closed door blurred by the wind and snow, through the wind and snow, he could even vaguely see that in the gap of the papery window, from time to time an eye was secretly looking at them.

The black-toothed Changzhi grabbed the Bazhou governor's collar and stepped forward, standing in a row with Zhang Cambodia, Xue Rengui, and Wang Bo, and continued to look at the wooden door silently.

All the soldiers who could come in behind him were also holding their breath, without a trace of noise, and in the entire courtyard, there were only silent snowflakes, and the snow fell quietly on everyone's bodies.

Time seemed to be frozen, Zhang Cambodia had been gritting his teeth, staring at the wooden door with his eyes, watching the snowflakes fall in front of him, and suddenly said loudly: "The ministers are still in the book, the last general Xue Rengui, and the black tooth Changzhi are asking to see King Pei!" ”

With a bang, there was a muffled sound in the originally silent room, but after the muffled sound, it still fell into endless silence.

Zhang Cambodia looked at the unresponsive wooden door and looked at Wang Bo, Wang Bo just wanted to step and knock on the door, but was stopped by Zhang Cambodia.

Xue Rengui and Heiya Changzhi glanced at each other, and then the two saluted at the wooden door and said in a loud voice: "The last generals, Xue Rengui and Heizhi Changzhi, ask to see His Royal Highness King Pei." ”

As just now, the voice seemed to sink into the sea, and there was no response at all.

"The ...... of the minister."

"What should come is always coming, I have been waiting for this day for a long time, but I didn't expect that the fifth child would choose such a good day for me." Finally a voice came from inside the room.

Then, under the gaze of Zhang Cambodia and several people, the wooden door was opened one by one, and then, Peiwang Li Xian appeared in everyone's sight.

The wind and snow at the door took the opportunity to enter, and the whirlwind broke into the room behind Li Xian, only to see Li Xian standing still at the door, letting the wind and snow blow in his face, only the empty, thin left sleeve was swaying with the wind and snow.

"General Xue, how about you please bring the things in the carriage immediately?" After Zhang Cambodia and several people saluted Li Xian, they still stood in the wind and snow and said.

Xue Rengui nodded silently, and then there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and after a while, boxes of objects were carried to the door, and Li Xian blocked the door.

The soldiers didn't dare to go in at will, not to mention that there was King Pei blocking the door, so they had to carry the boxes in a box of three or five people, two people, or seven or eight people, standing silently in the wind and snow, waiting for orders.

"His Royal Highness King Pei, these are all gifts from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the winter, and please ask for your subordinates." Zhang Cambodia took two steps forward and saluted.

At this time, neither Xue Rengui nor Heizhi Changzhi could be too friendly with Li Xian, and Zhang Khan Zhi, who was the secretary of the ministry, was a civil official and not a military general, so he could naturally talk to Li Xian in front of everyone.

Li Xian's eyes were numb from the wind and snow, and he swept the wooden box blankly, and then muttered, "Will the fifth child still think of me?" He's not here to kill me? ”

"It's not." Zhang Cambodia looked at Li Xian's blank eyes, trying not to let his eyes fall on the empty sleeves that fluttered with the wind and snow.

Li Xian sighed in the face of the wind and snow, and then turned sideways and said, "Come in, the cold house is too small, I'm afraid it won't be able to entertain all the ......distinguished guests." ”

"Go down and bring everything else over." Xue Rengui looked at Zhang Cambodia and looked at him, then turned his head and ordered to the guard.

A sound of footsteps swept by, and the small courtyard, which was originally crowded with people, suddenly became empty, only the messy footprints under his feet proved that the mansion of King Pei Li Xian had just been visited.

The room was not warm, Xue Rengui and Hei Yan Changzhi were asked by Li Xian to sit on the top, but the two refused to live or die, so the upper seat was empty, and Wang Bo stood behind Li Xian as usual.

The governor of Bazhou just wanted to sit down, but after being snorted coldly by the black tooth, he hurriedly stood up, retreated behind the two, and stood uneasy.

Zhang Cambodia looked at Li Xian apologetically and said, "King Pei, the minister has offended, and I hope King Pei will not be surprised." ”

After finishing speaking, Zhang Cambodia walked to the corner, the stove closest to the inner room, opened it, and saw that only a small piece of carbon was burning inside, and it couldn't even illuminate the entire furnace wall.

Around that small piece of carbon, there were clods of earth that were huddled together, not even yellowed or blackened.

"Bring in some carbon." Zhang Cambodia shouted at the door, and then heard the sound of the two guards at the door, walking quickly.

"Your Highness......." Zhang Cambodia sat down under Li Xian's head and unconsciously tightened the clothes on his body.

"Mu Qing, come out to meet the distinguished guests from Chang'an." Li Xiancang has aged a lot, and even his temples already have gray hair, wrinkles and rough skin, making him look like a weathered old man, who has long lost his former demeanor.

There was a faint sound of sparse voices and the buzzing of children, but before Zhang Cambodia and the others could wait, a woman wearing coarse pudding clothes walked out with her head down.

"The people's daughter Li has seen all the adults." Fang Muqing saluted, and then stood behind Li Xian.

Compared with Li Xian, Fang Muqing has not changed much, except for a coarse cloth shirt and skirt, her demeanor and intellectual appearance are the same as before, but now it looks like a woman in an ordinary family because of a simple shirt and skirt.

Knowledgeable and generous has always been like a sign on Fang Muqing's body, and she has been exiled here with Li Xian over the years, and she has not worn out her temperament in a difficult environment.

"Feel free to bring some clothes for the children to go in and keep them from the cold, don't let them freeze anymore." After Li Xian came out of Fang Muqing, his eyes have been on those soft clothes that are warm when he looks at them.

Hearing Li Xian's words, Fang Muqing was stunned for a moment, and then saluted Zhang Cambodia and the others again, and then slowly walked to the place where the box was placed, and after selecting a few pieces of clothing, he was about to go inside.

"Don't patronize the children, bring you two in too." Li Xian, who only had one arm left, blocked Mu Qing's way in front of everyone and said softly.

"Pei Wang, you mean you ...... now."

"Yes, I was born not long ago, and I was still in my infancy, or else...... I won't send Wang Bo over to ask the adults to give me some more carbon to keep warm. Li Xian lowered his head and looked at the warm fur on his body and said.

"But he said that it will be distributed to the people of Bazhou according to the head, Your Highness, you can't deceive the ministers ......."

"All the carbon is there, there are a total of thirty-two heads in the house, that is, thirty-two carbons, and it has snowed for three days, and a total of fourteen carbons have been used, and the rest are there." Li Xian had an indescribable bitterness in his heart, when did he start to worry about people on one or two pieces of carbon.

Zhang Cambodia stood up slowly, he believed that today's King Pei would never lie, so in this way, it was the governor of Bazhou who was secretly oppressed because of the exile of King Pei by the imperial court!
