Chapter 13 Walking Together
"Huh!?" Han Lie himself didn't expect to have such a bad side, after all, he was a human being in two lives, and he was a little stunned, so he flew off the horse and asked calmly, "Why did Brother Gongming come here too?" ”
Although Xu Huang was surprised by the identity of Han Lie and the bride, when he saw Han Lie and asked, he said: "The dock was occupied by the thief army, and I and a few brothers had to withdraw, but I didn't want to see the majestic posture of Han Gongzi fighting the thief in time. ”
"I don't know where Brother Gongming is going to go next?" Being called so flattering by Han Lie, Xu Huang was a little unaccustomed to it, but he still replied: "Several of us are all paid by the door of Dayangyi (that is, the errand service), and this time we are also ordered by the county commander to gather the surrounding people to return to the city to guard, but now that the thief army is strong, we can only return to the city first." ”
Just as Xu Huang was speaking, behind a few nearby burning wheat straw piles, several more officials came out.
"Thank you for your help, Han Lie is grateful." When Han Lie saw the rest of the people, he hurriedly thanked them.
"Han Gongzi doesn't have to be polite, this is all within our responsibility." The three of them hugged their fists one after another.
"Brother Gongming wants to go back to the city, I don't know if I can bow down?" Han Lie still admired Xu Huang, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms, and now that he saw that he was destined to go with him, he asked.
"Huangguan Gongzi is strong in martial arts, if he can go together, it would be great." Xu Huang had seen Han Lie's sword technique with his own eyes under the firelight just now, and he had already had the idea of making friends, and when he saw Han Lie open his mouth, he expressed his welcome.
Of course, there is another point in this, that is, Han Lie's assassination of Dong Zhuo has now been rumored, and Xu Huang, who has always been loyal, naturally has respect for a loyal person like Han Lie, otherwise he would not have taken the risk to rescue him just now.
"By the way, this is Miss Cai, the daughter of Lord Cai Yong in the court." Han Lie would lead the horse and introduce the identity of Cai Yan on the horseback to everyone, as for the identity of her bride, he ignored it directly because he didn't know how to explain it.
"Could it be the young lady who married in Lord Wei's mansion?" Han Lie didn't mention it, but it didn't mean that no one mentioned it, a young man beside Xu Huang looked up at Cai Yan and asked about it curiously.
"Ahem." Xu Huang saw Han Lie and Cai Yan kissing just now, in his opinion, these two behaved intimately, and they must have a private relationship, but he didn't expect that the kiss between the two just now was purely an accident, but when he saw his brothers, he mentioned Cai Yan's identity, in order not to cause embarrassment, he hurriedly lowered his head and coughed, and said: "Now there are thieves everywhere around here, it's really not a place to talk, it's better to hurry first." ”
"It just so happens that there are still a few horses in the village that can be used for transportation." Han Lie cast a grateful look at Xu Huang and hurriedly picked up the conversation.
Except for Cai Yan's damaged carriage, the other carriages in the village are still fine, so a few people can clean up and can be driven at any time, and several maids in the car are still hiding in the car and shivering at this time.
"Master Han, these guards are all dying to protect the concubines, can you bury them and set up a tombstone so that the family can find a memorial in the future." Cai Yan, who was sitting on horseback, couldn't help but burst into tears when he saw the corpses of Wei Ming and others who died in battle.
"As it should be, these guards are brave men." Han Lie nodded, and then on the hillside at the entrance of the village, a big pit was dug and Wei Ming and the others were buried, and even Yang Feng, who was killed by him, was also buried by Han Lie.
When Xu Huang and the others were digging a pit in Han Lie, they naturally would not stand idly by, and they all found iron tools in the village to help.
After working for more than half an hour, Han Lie and the others were able to set off, and everyone drove a carriage, but Xu Huang rode a horse and walked side by side with Han Lie.
"Did Brother Gongming already know his identity?" Han Lie, who was driving the carriage, saw that Xu Huang had not opened his mouth, but couldn't help but speak.
"Even though you concealed your name at the docks, so-and-so has seen your image, so it's not surprising. Although Dong Zhuo, the butcher, is a self-proclaimed prime minister, he is actually a thief, and everyone can be punished, Han Gongzi's assassination of Dong is a righteous act, and it is too late for my generation to be convinced, how can he tell the truth? Xu Huang has a calm personality, but he is not a talkative person, let alone likes to get to the bottom of things, if Han Lie doesn't speak, he will definitely not take the initiative to talk about this.
"Brother Gongming, Miao praised." Han Lie's old face flushed, although there was a matter of assassinating Dong, but in fact, if Dong Zhuo didn't want to be violent to himself, he would not be in a hurry to assassinate him, so he really had nothing to be proud of in this matter.
The two of them said this all the way, and then resumed their silence, Han Lie really didn't expect that this Xu Huang would be so stuffy, and with a wry smile, he had to speak again: "Brother Gongming, if I remember well, this Hedong should be Dong Thief's territory, right?" Why did this white wave thief make a rebellion, and the Dong thief's men and horses did not come to crusade? ”
"This Hedong white wave thief, in fact, most of them are still the people of Hedong, to say that this is Dong Zhuo's rebellion, in recent years, Dong Zhuo has served as a guard in Hedong, and the people of Hedong can be described as scraping the ground, making the people miserable, Dong Zhuo's army was stationed in the past, and the rebels who rebelled several times were suppressed, this time Dong Zhuo's army was all pulled out to Luoyang, Hedong was empty, and the civil unrest was naturally like a fire in the plain, which quickly spread to the entire Hedong, and now there are more than ten counties in Hedong, and only the capital Anyi and Dayangyi are still in the hands of the government." As a native of Hedong and a servant of the county government, Xu Huang knows a lot about the beginning and end of the Hedong Rebellion, so when he talks about this, his mood is also quite heavy.
"Alas, it's not, in this world, the people are suffering, dying, and the people are suffering." Thinking of the upcoming troubled times, Han Lie's mood also became heavy all of a sudden.
Xu Huang silently recited Han Lie's original words, his heart seemed to be uncomfortable like a hammer, and his eyes from afar couldn't help but sweep Han Lie's face, he really didn't expect that this handsome Han Gongzi, who was as beautiful as a woman, would have such a broad mind of worrying about the country and the people.
Originally, Xu Huang didn't want to care about Han Lie and Cai Yan, but he couldn't help but say: "Does Han Gongzi know that the Wei family is a Hedong Wang clan?" ”
"Brother Gongming seems to have really misunderstood, if I say that I only have a few relationships with Miss Cai, and I haven't even said more than three sentences, do you believe it?" Han Lie raised his head and glanced at Xu Huang with a smile.
Facing Han Lie's frank gaze, Xu Huang's resolute face showed a hint of a smile, and said: "I believe, since this is the case, I advise Han Gongzi not to go to Anyi, the Wei family is afraid that they may not want to see Han Gongzi appear." ”
Cai Yan in the carriage heard the conversation between Han Lie and Xu Huang, and her mood suddenly became bad, as for why this happened, she herself didn't understand.
"Haha, the big husband acts, acts right, sits up straight, what's the point?" Han Lie laughed loudly and said, "It's not a secret, this time I assassinated Dong, and it was all thanks to Lord Cai's help that Lie was able to enter the Forbidden Palace, so when I got out of trouble, I told myself that I would protect Miss Cai to be thoughtful and repay the kindness of the adults." ”
"Ahh Han Gongzi, what you said is true? Then my father ......" Originally, Cai Yan didn't want to participate in the conversation between their men, but when she learned about her father, she couldn't sit still anymore.
"I can't hide it, I really don't know the news of Lord Cai." Han Lie looked at Cai Yan with an anxious face with some guilt.
"I'm going back to Luoyang." Cai Yan's tone suddenly shouted resolutely.
"Miss Cai, please don't worry too much, Lord Cai is a famous person all over the world, Dong Zhuo will definitely not harm him easily, at least he only received an official letter from the sea to catch Han Gongzi, and he didn't see the slightest unfavorable news about Lord Cai." Although Xu Huang didn't say much, what he said was something to say.
"You let me go, I don't need your charity, I can go by myself." Cai Yan pushed Han Lie excitedly, and was about to jump under the carriage, if Han Lie hadn't pulled her, this woman who looked soft and weak really jumped out of the carriage.
"Grandma, what are you doing here?" Han Lie frowned, to be honest, he really didn't know what happened to Cai Yan for a while.
"You let go of me, I don't care about you, it turns out that I am really kind to you, it turns out that it is because I used my father and I can't bear the psychological guilt, so I followed to protect me, right? I'm telling you, if anything happens to my daddy, you're a murderer. In the face of Cai Yan's questioning, Han Lie, who felt guilty, was speechless for a while.
"Miss Cai, I, Han Lie, swear here, if Lord Cai really dies because of me, I, Han Lie, will definitely give you an explanation, even if it costs my life." Han Lie took a deep breath, and said with a firm face: "But now you have to listen to me, whether you want to go to Anyi or not, let's find a place to settle down before making a decision, and then you want to go back to Luoyang or Anyi, I will escort you." ”
Facing Han Lie's firm tone, looking at his gaze as deep as an ocean, Cai Yanfang was distraught, and finally turned back to the carriage, obviously she finally accepted Han Lie's suggestion.
