Chapter 40: The Zifeiyi (2)
The two of them quickly descended the official road, burrowed through the dense woods, and continued to hike north along a sheep's intestine trail between the hillsides. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Sure enough, after about a pillar of incense, there was a miscellaneous sound of horses' hooves on the official road from far to near, and the two of them bowed down, stopped and watched, only to see the dust on the official road, and one hundred and ten fierce Tubo warriors galloped in front of the two of them.
"Scorpio Army." Na Yu muttered in a low voice, "Look at their formation and numbers, most of them are coming at us." ā
"We have to find a way to change into a neater outfit before walking, this dress is not enough to walk the mountain road." Lai Xing'er lifted the skirt that was torn by thorns and showed it to Nayu.
Na Yu looked at Lai Xing'er with an embarrassed look, snorted disdainfully, stood up and continued to walk forward, and said to him: "Are you walking the mountain road for the first time, you haven't been out of the capital since you were a child, right?" Bear with me for the time being, and when I pass by the Nongge Station, I will go into the city and buy two light clothes to change into. ā
Lai Xing'er couldn't stand her cynicism, and wanted to open her mouth to refute, thinking that what Na Yu said was the truth, except for following Fu Yi to the river to send a letter, he had indeed never taken half a step out of Gyeonggi, and swallowed his words back, and asked instead: "Do you still dare to enter the city, aren't you afraid of being recognized?" ā
Na Yutou replied without replying: "They are looking for you, not me." What are you afraid of! ā
The two of them talked and walked with each other, until the sun set, and then they saw the tall wall of Nonggeyi from a distance.
Tubo is located on the plateau, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, during the day, the two of them are wearing light clothes and sweating profusely, and now they are blown by the cool breeze in the mountains, and they feel cold through the bones. Na Yu saw that Lai Xing'er was so cold that he sneezed, for fear that he would suffer from the wind cold and become ill, so he hurriedly found a nearby sheltered place for Lai Xing'er to settle down and rest temporarily, and he went into the city alone to buy some food and clothing for daily necessities.
After Nayu left, Lai Xing'er curled up on the ground, leaning against a big stone for a while. I fell asleep in a daze.
Hazy, Lai Xing'er seemed to have come to the Longshou Canal in the east of Daming Palace, Na Yu stood in front of him wearing a curtain hat, and pointed to the Longshou Canal beside him with a smile. teasingly said to him: "Do you dare to jump again, I promise I won't leave you alone." ā
For some reason, in Lai Xing'er's eyes, all that flowed in the Longshou Canal was freshly melted snow water, with a faint light smoke. It's already chilling to look at it, let alone jumping into the water. Even so, Lai Xing'er still didn't want to show his cowardice in front of Nayu, he jumped when he said it, and with a "plop", the chill that hurt the bone marrow immediately spread all over his body, and he couldn't help but cry out "ah".
"Hey, wake up, see what good food I've brought?"
There was a real call in her ears, and Lai Xing'er opened her sleepy eyes. Suddenly, I saw Na Yu, who was dressed in dark clothes and pants, standing in front of him wearing a curtain hat, and carrying a bulging burden in his hand.
"You brought me ashore?" After Lai Xing'er asked this, Zhang looked around, only to realize that he had just been caught by the nightmare, and grinned in self-defeat.
Nayu spread out the burden and spread it on the ground, and when Lai Xing'er saw that there was a large piece of yak meat, a few pieces of cheese and a thick stack of pancakes, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, reached out and grabbed a piece of cottage cheese and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing while reaching out to the pancake again.
Nayu watched Lai Xing'er gobble it up. smiled and quipped: "The food of ordinary people in Tibet, does His Royal Highness King Mu think it is delicious?" ā
"Uh-huh." Lai Xing'er was full of food, and nodded again and again to indicate that it was delicious.
"What kind of dream did you just have? What shore and water? Na Yu took out the same dark clothes and pants and handed them to Lai Xing'er. Asked casually.
Lai Xing'er swallowed a piece of yak meat with great difficulty, and replied with some embarrassment: "I, I dreamed again that I was on the side of the Longshou Canal, and you forced me to jump into the ditch." If you don't wake me up, I'll freeze to death. ā
Na Yu was full of surprise and said, "You recognized the wrong person in your dream!" When did I force you to jump into the dragon's head canal? ā
Lai Xing'er pointed to the hat on her head and smiled, "It's just the two of us here." What is there to deny? On the night the Assassins entered the palace to assassinate you, you wore such a hat on your head. ā
Lai Xing'er said, deliberately pinching her throat, trying her best to imitate her voice at that time, and said, "I also want to ask you how this wonderful sound came out of my throat." ā
"You did recognize the wrong person." Hearing Xing'er say this, Na Yu seemed to suddenly think of something, "It wasn't me that you saw by the Longshou Canal that night, but Mama Zhong." ā
"Mama Zhong of the Shangfu Bureau?" Lai Xing'er was stunned, "She was the one who went to my room in the west wing of Yanying Hall at noon that day to pick up the news?" ā
Na Yu nodded: "Although I don't understand what you are talking about, but the kind of extraordinarily beautiful and heavenly sound you said should be the secret technique of "Tianyin", I pestered Mama Zhong all day long to ask her to teach me, she still refused to agree, the person you said should be her." ā
In an instant, Lai Xing'er only felt that the world was spinning, and a sense of shame that he had never felt before of being teased came to his heart, making his head swell, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
Na Yu noticed that Xing'er's expression was different, and hurriedly helped him sit down with his back against the big stone, and comforted him gently: "Since you left the Shangfu Bureau that afternoon, Mama Zhong has been full of praise for you, and praised you for your kindness, and they are not like people all the way, otherwise, how can I help you for no reason?" ā
"What! You and Mama Zhong are not Furong's subordinates? Lai Xing'er's eyes widened in surprise.
"Fleur's men? Mama Zhong may be familiar with her, I have only heard this name a few times from the daily speeches of the concubine and Mama Zhong, but I never know what she looks like. Nayu didn't know why Lai Xing'er pulled herself and Furong together, and replied a little strangely.
"Mama Zhong and Furong are familiar with each other, you and Mama Zhong are together, and you said that you have never seen Furong in person, so what is the relationship between you......" Lai Xing'er was completely confused, muttering in her mouth.
"You little eunuch, why are you thinking about all these things for no reason." This time it was Nayu's turn to persuade her, and she asked intentionally, "Hey, you mistook Mama Zhong for me, what was the situation at that time, let's hear it." ā
"If you admit your mistakes, you admit your mistakes, what can you say." The last thing Lai Xing'er wants to mention at this moment is this matter.
He calmed down a little, and thought about it: It is indeed no wonder that other people are responsible for this matter, it was his wishful thinking that he mistook Mama Zhong for Tang Guoer. Remembering that before leaving Chang'an, when she ran to the Shangfu Bureau to say goodbye to Tang Guo'er, Mama Zhong stared at her eyes that seemed to be smiling and not smiling, as if she had seen through the little secret hidden in her heart, Lai Xing'er felt that her cheeks were hot for a while, and she lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Nayu.
