The East Water Gate is rarely opened at night, with the exception of "special circumstances" such as today. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After Su An made an inventory step by step, he let the ships gradually leave the city.
As for the degree of carefulness, it is almost fine, the sight is not good at night, it is impossible to be overly careful.
Besides, rumors spread that the people were dissatisfied with the practices of the imperial court, and the soldiers also complained, and it was not good to be blatantly passive and slack off, but at least the attitude could not be so positive.
Some people still have a vague idea in their hearts, if they really meet it, they are willing to let the Qin Wang's family go out of the city.
Looking at the current situation, it is very likely that the King of Qin will enter Bianjing in the coming days, if he saves the concubine and the prince in the coming days, it will be a great achievement!
Su An also had such expectations, but his purpose was not for merit and speculation, but simply a wish. However, he also knew that King Qin's family had a large number of people and a big goal, and it was not easy to leave easily.
The waiting ship had already left for seventy-seven eighty-eight, and it was already midnight in the middle of the moon. After a busy day, Rao is body is healthy, and Su An also feels very tired.
When he went ashore, he lifted the gourd and drank the spirits, which relieved his fatigue. It has been many years since I came into contact with Hangzhou back then, and it has become a habit.
Then he sent the soldiers who went back to rest first, he wanted to be quiet, and he wanted to wait for someone.
Sitting under the willows by the river, Su An clearly noticed that at a certain moment, the light had changed significantly, and the familiar figure appeared again.
"Friend or foe? Come out and meet us! ”
A stone came in the air and landed on the stone slab with a crisp sound, and a long-haired woman appeared by the river. The black power suit wraps the delicate figure. The movements are very dexterous.
Su An looked back. It just feels familiar. But I couldn't react for a moment.
The woman in black had a little more disappointment in her expectant eyes, and said softly, "Brother Su, don't you know me?" ”。
"Jade Boy Girl?" It wasn't until he heard the voice that Su An shouted tentatively.
"It's me, I thought Brother Su didn't know me anymore!" The person who came was Mu Sihong's maid Yutong, who made a lot of effort, and was a tomboy with short hair back then. Now it's full of green silk and long hair and a shawl. There is a little more of a woman's graceful and delicate spirit.
Su An also sneered: "The jade boy girl changed her makeup, so she didn't recognize it for a while. ”
"That's good-looking now? Or did it look good before? After Yu Tong asked this sentence, there was a touch of crimson on her pretty face. Fortunately, it was dark and others couldn't see clearly.
Su An couldn't help but be stunned, and only said after a while: "The spirit of the past is even more ...... now Pretty! ”
It is obvious that the tomboy has become a beautiful big girl.
"That's good!" Jade Tong seemed to be satisfied with this answer.
Su An was stunned again, he didn't know how to answer the question, although he felt that it was very strange for Yu Tong to suddenly appear at this juncture. He was tempted to ask why. But after opening his mouth slightly, he closed it again. It seems a bit out of place to ask now.
On the banks of the Bianhe River, the willows move with the wind, and under the moonlight, the water surface floats brightly. For a while, neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was inevitably a little weird.
Yu Tong lowered her head, carried a stone on the tip of her slender toes, and with a little force, the stone flew out and fell into the river, and suddenly there were ripples in circles, the same as in her heart.
The strange atmosphere lasted for a long time before Yu Tong broke the silence and asked, "Brother Su, how have you been doing all these years?" I think I have already married a wife and started a family, and how old are my children! ”
No one could see it, and in the night, Yu Tong's face was like a red apple. She deliberately suppressed her throat, just because she was afraid that there would be tremors in her voice, or that she would lose her courage halfway.
In the dark night, Su An also hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Where can a rough soldier have a family to speak of?" ”
"Really?". The expected answer, but when he said it himself, he couldn't help but be excited. Even if you try to restrain yourself, no matter what, you can't suppress the surging tide.
Five years, something that has been suppressed for five years, suddenly opens a gap, and it is not easy to restrain it. This is especially true for a woman.
Su An is meticulous in his work, thick and detailed, but he is a rough man in life. He didn't notice the "obvious" emotional changes in his daughter's family at all.
"Jade Boy girl, why are you here? Mrs. Meng and Mrs. Mu, are they okay? ”。 Su An finally took the initiative to ask, and the atmosphere was too weird and a little depressing.
"It's all good!" Only then did Yu Tong restrain his mood, and it was important at the moment.
Su An nodded subconsciously and said with a smile: "That's good, His Royal Highness King Qin......"
"Your Highness is fine, I think you've already heard about it."
"Yes!"
"Your Highness and Madame are always talking about you!"
Yu Tong's words, Su An's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't help but be shocked, and said in surprise: "Really? ”。
There are too many surprises and excitement in the words, and there is an indescribable feeling.
Yu Tong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, a hanging heart was put down, and said softly: "If it weren't for that, Your Highness wouldn't let me come to you at this time!" ”
"Your Highness asked you to come to me?" Su An is still in a surprise.
"Yes!" Yutong said: "Actually, a few years ago, His Royal Highness knew your whereabouts, and I found out...... At that time, I wanted to come to you, but His Highness wouldn't let me. At first, I thought that His Highness was still resentful of you, so I didn't dare to ...... It wasn't until a few days ago that the lady told me that Your Highness never blamed you, and did not come to you because he was worried about your safety and afraid that you would be embarrassed. ”
"Really?"
Su An was questioning, but there was more surprise and relief in his heart, maybe he didn't have the slightest doubt in his heart.
"Hmm!" Yu Tong quietly wiped the tears from his cheeks and said in a low voice: "I came here today, His Royal Highness and Mrs. and asked me to come, they said...... Su Bozhou is a righteous person, and he is trustworthy in times of crisis. ”
"But ma'am, do they need help? What needs to be done, Su An is duty-bound! ”
Su An knew very well what he was checking on every day on the canal. The Jade Boy can appear at this time, it must have something to do with it. To help. He is absolutely obliged.
He had no doubt in the slightest about what Yu Tong said. He knew the man. Whether he is a county magistrate or the king of Qin, he is always so open-minded.
After five years of no contact, it was a major event related to life and death, Su An did not have any complaints, and was even very excited and gratified. At this moment, Yu Tong is related to the safety of King Qin's family, and King Qin can let him come to find him, and if he stakes his life on himself.
Such a level of trust. How can it not be moving? Su An felt very honored, King Qin did this, and if he put himself at the most important moment, it could be seen in his place in his mind.
Exploit? Su An didn't think so. In fact, he was happy to be used by King Qin, which was an honor.
"Your Highness really didn't misunderstand Brother Su!" Yutong was excited.
Su An said: "The search is very strict at the moment, and if you want to send the princess and her wife out of the city, I'm afraid it's not easy!" ”
"I know, it's not out of the city, it's ......" Yutong walked closer. lowered his voice and whispered a few words in Su An's ear.
As the jade boy spoke, he exhaled like an orchid. The slightly hot beauty's breath fell on her earlobes and cheeks, and Su An couldn't help but feel a little heartbeat, and her face was a little shy.
However, he only has big things in mind at the moment, and he is almost in a state of no distractions, and some subtle feelings are temporarily forgotten.
"Okay, got it, I'll cooperate." Su An still had any concerns, so he agreed immediately.
"Brother Su, this matter may be dangerous, aren't you afraid?" Yutong asked in a whisper.
"People in the army have long put life and death out of the way." Su An smiled and said, "What's more, if a scholar dies for a confidant, no matter what, I must repay His Royal Highness King Qin's trust and kindness, otherwise I will feel even more guilty." ”
Yutong advised: "Be careful, you must save your life and wait for His Highness to come back, at that time, he will be added to the rank and knight, and he will ......."
"Hmph, I know, don't worry, it's okay!" Su An smiled: "Miss Yutong, you should be careful. ”
"Hmm!" For a moment, Yu Tong's heart warmed.
"Alright, let's split up!"
"Hmm!" When Yu Tong was leaving, he turned around again and said in a low voice: "Brother Su, just call me Yu Tong in the future." ”
"Okay, Aunt Jade Boy...... Be careful! ”
The moonlight was like water, and in the gentle atmosphere on the bank of the Bianhe River, two figures left in a hurry.
……
……
Summer mornings are always exceptionally cool, especially in the garden with the sound of birds and flowers.
Guifei Zhu, as usual, slowly walked through the flowers, the flowers and plants still have the same taste as before, fragrant and pleasant, refreshing.
It's just that the mood is completely different, Zhu has no intention of appreciating the flowers at all, just pacing back and forth among the flowers, his brows are tightly locked, full of sorrow and worry.
Originally, her life was very good, and although the status of the concubine was not as good as that of the queen, it was also extremely noble. The most important thing is that she has a son, and he is the emperor's de facto eldest son, if there is no accident, according to tradition, she will be the crown prince in the future and ascend the throne as the emperor. In the future, even if she can't become the queen mother, her status is extremely respectful.
It's a pity that the official family suddenly became critically ill at a young age, which made the Zhu family very anxious. Fortunately, Queen Xiang has always been good to her, and if her son can succeed to the throne, there is still hope. The husband really thinks so, and has always wanted to set up her son Zhao Xu.
But halfway through the killing, a king Yang came, and the queen mother was determined to make her second son Zhao Hao the emperor. Brother and brother, what should they do with the concubines of the first emperor? can only be an embarrassing imperial sister-in-law, and life will be very difficult. The most infuriating time was when the throne that belonged to his son was taken away by someone.
Zhu's heart was full of hatred, her background was average, and she didn't know what the overall situation was important. just thinks that her son is going to lose the throne, how can she be willing?
But her husband was in a coma, and the queen mother was so strong, her weak concubine couldn't resist at all.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, the more anxious Zhu felt and more restless!
What to do?
It seemed that nothing could be done except pacing in the garden and being in a hurry.
At this most lonely and helpless time, footsteps sounded, and someone whispered: "Isn't this Zhu Guifei?" ”。
Zhu turned around and saw Zhao Fukang, the eldest princess of Chu Kingdom, slowly coming. (To be continued......)
