Chapter 18 The Noble Rescue

A cough came from the other side. The door of the room facing the wing room was open, and inside the room, a man in white was facing the small window. Outside the window are ordinary bluestone fallen leaves, small bridges and flowing water, but the most ordinary scenery is like a picture scroll because of his existence, and he is a poetic stroke on the pixel silk, which has made people intoxicated by understatement.

The man in white stopped coughing and said with a slight smile: "It's a pity that the red and purple are withering, why should General Guo help the west wind and add to the killing." Yan Bi stood up and walked to the side room. The sunset sprinkled lightly on him, but it made his plain clothes even more deceitful. Guo Yu, who was also dressed in white, was instantly lined with a vassal and elegant landlord, he lowered his head to look at his white clothes, eager to remove all the silver flowers, and the proud wrench was also quietly taken off and stuffed into his sleeves.

The well-behaved maids also set their eyes on this beautiful man who looked like an immortal, and many of them began to quietly gather their hair and dress up.

The annoyance on Guo Yu's face had long since turned into admiration, and he said with a smile: "I didn't expect to meet Mr. here, it's really ...... Ah, Mr. Fei is staying here too? Have those people ever disturbed you? It's so unusual, why didn't you tell me here? ”

The man in white waved his hands and saluted: "It's right to apologize." I hope it will not hinder General Guo. Those little brothers didn't report to General Guo because of my instructions, please don't embarrass them. ”

Guo Yu said again and again: "This is nature. He instructed the maid to take the wine glass, and after rinsing it with fine wine a few times, she drank a glass and handed it to both hands, and said, "The banquet was prepared too hastily, and I really couldn't take it, but there were some good wines that were worth a snort." This is the unique Laxue Yangchun of Yonggong, how about Mr. taste it? ”

The man in white smiled and slowly drank it all, Guo Yu suddenly remembered that he hadn't put on a new chopstick, but he saw that he had already picked up his chopstick, took a mouthful of bitter vegetables and put it in his mouth, and said: "Sure enough, it is Qiong juice and jade liquid, which seems to have more bamboo fragrance than Laxue Yangchun stored in Mr. Zhuang Meng's cellar." The most amazing thing is that this aroma wanders between the lips and teeth like a living creature, presumably sealing the wine in the bamboo that has only been cut off, so that the wine and the bamboo can grow together and absorb the aura. Brother Guo's method is really wonderful! After speaking, he began to cough slightly.

Qin Fei and Xiang Chonghua were dumbfounded when they heard this, and Guo Yu's face was even more reverent, and he clapped his hands again and again: "I won't tell you, this method was exchanged for Mr. Zhu after using ten pairs of beautiful jade rings." Others can guess that the wine is sealed in the bamboo, which is already a hundred miles, and Mr. actually guessed it word for word, it is really a wonderful person! ”

The man in white smiled: "When it comes to wine tasting, my little brother is also a master." Xiang Chonghua said: "Time flies so fast, I haven't seen you for a long time since the last time I talked about wine." Is Mr. Zhuang Meng in good health? If I hadn't happened to meet the Han Wen brothers, I really wouldn't have imagined that you would also arrive in Chen Kingdom. ”

Qin Fei said with a smile: "Master Kangjian, thank you Mr. for your concern." I waited here for the young master on the orders of the marquis, but I didn't know that you were also here, and I was disrespectful and disrespectful. ”

The man in white smiled and nodded at him, Qin Fei only felt as if he was a child who had been seen through lying, and his face turned red.

Guo Yu was surprised: "They are actually the disciples of the Han family? After a pause, he hesitated: "Are you sure that Mr. has not admitted his mistake?" ”

The man in white smiled at Xiang Chonghua, and continued: "Although I am not very familiar with this little brother, I have also drunk several times. His father is a swordsman in Yongguo, and his mother is the daughter of a merchant in Xiguo, so one admires Mr. Zhuang Meng, and the other admires the desireless marquis. This trip to Chen Guo can also be regarded as a test for Hou Ye to them. Brother Guo has always looked at me like a torch, what do you think of my little brother? ”

Guo Yu stood up with an "ahhhh I thought you were...... Don't get angry. ”

Xiang Chonghua sneered: "Don't dare, don't dare." I'm only half a pest, how can I afford your apology? ”

Guo Yu was so embarrassed that his face turned purple, and said: "This, this is just a clever way to test whether Your Excellency is Yongguo Xiang Chonghua." Your Excellency should not be angry, if there is anything that can help you, just ask, and you will do your best to help you. ”

Xiang Chonghua just sneered and didn't say a word. Han Wuyu and Zhuang Meng are both revered as gods in the Wing Country, and it is definitely not a trivial matter to offend someone who has a relationship with both of them. Beads of sweat appeared on Guo Yu's face, and he looked at the man in white as if asking for help. The man in white gently patted Xiang Chonghua on the shoulder and said, "General Guo is also for official business, since it is just a misunderstanding, why bother to be serious?" I remember that he was a brother-in-law with this superior commander, so it would be better for him to give you a token, which would not only help you pass smoothly all the way, but also save you a lot of trouble. ”

Guo Yu immediately took out the wrench just now and handed it over with both hands: "This wrench was given to me by the first king of Yuguo as a birthday gift to the first king of Yiguo, and then it was given to my subordinates for his meritorious service in quelling the rebellion. The officials of the Yu Kingdom and the Wing Country or those who have a relationship with the subordinates know this thing. As long as you take it, you will be able to walk unhindered here, at least you will not be mistaken for Xiang Chonghua by the people of Yuyi and the two countries. ”

Xiang Chonghua took the wrench and said, "Thank you." Qin Fei felt a heart fall back into his chest, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality." It's just that we still have to look for Young Master Han, so we will leave first. ”

Xiang Chonghua suddenly said: "Wait a minute! Pointing to the many maidservants, he said to Guo Yu: "You say I can choose at will, but is it okay?" ”

Guo Yu glanced at the man in white with shame on his face, and said embarrassedly: "Of course." ”

Xiang Chonghua waved his hand and said, "Okay, I want it all!" ”

Guo Yu's jaw almost fell to the ground, and he smiled reluctantly: "There are so many girls, Your Excellency is running around, it doesn't seem very convenient to carry it, right?" ”

Xiang Chonghua's eyes widened and said, "You shouldn't be reluctant, right?" Didn't you just say that it's just a woman, if you like it, you can take it, and if you don't like it, you can put it down? Oh, by the way, you seem to have said ......"

Guo Yu didn't even have the courage to raise his head, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Everything depends on Your Excellency." Is it enough to give each person a gold bead as a dowry? ”

Xiang Chonghua said: "Naturally, it is the best. I will not tell you to cut your flesh for nothing. He smiled and said to Qin Fei: "Do you still have the rational qi to disperse the pill, and take it out and give it to General Guo." ”

Qin Fei had a burst of amusement in his heart, and sure enough, he gave Guo Yu a bottle of the elixir that calmed qi and dispersed condensations, and also gave a bottle of cinnabar tranquilizer. Guo Yu laughed more ugly than crying. Xiang Chonghua took out a lot of gifts from the entanglement given by the frost moon and gave them to the maidservants, and after sending them away, he saluted Guo Yu, who was trembling with anger: "General Guo's generosity is unforgettable. We'll see you later. ”

The man in white said to Guo Yu: "I also have something to find Hanwen, and I will meet with General Guo another day." ”

Guo Yu suddenly said, "Sir, please stay." Mr. Han must have heard of the relationship between the Han family and His Majesty. Even in Chen Guo, it is difficult to ensure that the partition wall has ears, and Mr. is close to the Han family, so he is not afraid of causing fire? ”

The man in white smiled and said, "What do others say, what does Your Majesty think, how can it be changed by the power of one person?" If Your Majesty doesn't want me to die, even if others say that Heaven is going to heaven, it won't help. If Your Majesty wants me to die, who would dare to intercede? I just want to be worthy of heaven and earth. Thank you General Guo for your kindness, please stay and don't send it. Walked downstairs with Xiang Chonghua and Qin Fei. In front of the inn, there was already a coachman waiting in a carriage.

The man in white waited for the carriage to drive out of the street before he said slowly: "General Guo is actually a poor man, please don't hold grudges." ”

Qin Fei said: "I remember that there is a general named Guo Ning who is quite favored by the first king of the Yiguo Kingdom, and it can be described as a great honor. But after King Yi ascended the throne, the Guo family fell out of favor and was almost exiled by the raider. Could this Guo Yu be Guo Ning's descendant? ”

The man in white nodded and praised: "Zhuang Meng's disciple is really good. He is indeed the sister-in-law of General Guo. ”

Xiang Chonghua suddenly realized: "He turned out to be Guo Ning's son." Listening to Li Mumei, although Guo Ning was also cleaned up miserably by Li Ben back then, it was also dragged so that Li Ben did not hit the Wing Palace. Guo Ning has always had a bad relationship with Yang, whose ancestral home is Xiguo. Later, Yang Xiangguo's daughter became the queen, and his Guo family's life was naturally not easy. No wonder Guo Yu hates women so much, and hates Xiguo even more. He respects Mr. so much, is it because of Mr.'s strength that the Guo family was spared the disaster of raiding the house? ”

The man in white nodded and sighed: "Guo Yu is not only excellent in martial arts, but also good in marching formation. How could I bear to watch Zhongliang fall so miserably. He coughed again and muttered to himself, "Once a son of heaven and a courtier." Even if there is a genius, how can he resist the suspicion of the emperor? ”

Xiang Chonghua said: "Sir's cough doesn't seem to be good. How about letting him show you? Xiang Qin Fei said, "Do you have any cough medicine?" Qin Fei glared at him and said, "Cough is also divided into cold and heat, how can you take a bottle of medicine in a big package!" Xiang Baiyi said: "Although the medical skills are not excellent, I also know a little bit about it, can I allow you to buckle your pulse?" ”

The man in white said with a smile: "If Mr. Zhuang Meng's medical skills are poor, I'm afraid no one will dare to call it good." It's just that the cough under it is an old and stubborn disease, and I don't have the luxury of hoping for a cure. ”

Xiang Chonghua nodded regretfully, and suddenly saw a patch of white on the ground. Leaning over and picking it up, it turned out to be a feather. The look of the man in white suddenly became indescribably sad, and he coughed and said, "This is something that is below." ”

Xiang Chonghua handed the feather hands to the man in white, who took out a pot of wine from under his seat, raised his neck and drank it all. The wine showed great strength, and his pale face immediately flushed, and his cough became more and more severe.

The carriage suddenly turned and entered a rather secluded alley. The man in white raised the curtain and smiled: "This is the residence of the young master of Hanwen, although it is remote, it is beautiful and quiet, so you don't have to worry about being followed." Whether you want to stay for one night or make friends with a noble person, you can rest assured. He sent the two to a small courtyard at the end of the alley and said: "Sending you a thousand miles must be goodbye in the end, and the two of you should take care." Leave. ”

Xiang Chonghua suddenly said: "Mr. actually knows my identity, right?" Guo Yu wants to arrest me and show his merit to the Wing King, which shows that my worth is quite considerable even in the Wing Country, and letting me go without permission is a big crime. Why did you save me, sir? ”

The man in white said lightly: "It's still the same sentence, just want to be worthy of heaven and earth." ”

Xiang Chonghua said: "But I'm just a rebel and thief who everyone spurns." What qualifications do I have to risk your rescue? ”

The man in white said: "The so-called rebels and thieves are mostly just the names given to the losers by the victors of the power struggle." From what I know about your country, there are at least five chances for the prince to rebel, and even the most stupid person will not make trouble at this juncture. If you are wrong, you may only do one thing wrong, that is, you have not weighed the pros and cons, and you have not sacrificed your true feelings. ”

He looked at Xiang Chonghua and said, "I saved you precisely because of this impulse and true feelings." ”

Xiang Chonghua lowered his head, tears almost coming out of his eyes. The man in white smiled slightly, turned around and walked towards the carriage.

Xiang Chonghua raised his head and said loudly, "Sir, please stay." The man in white stopped, but did not look back. Xiang Chonghua took two steps forward, shook it to the end, and said respectfully: "Mr. Daen, I will not forget it." Dare to ask the gentleman by his name. ”

The voice of the man in white came faintly, and he still didn't look back.

"A name is just a symbol. If you are destined to see you again, no matter what you call me, I will know it. If there is no day to see each other again, what is the use of knowing an empty name? ”

Xiang Chonghua and Qin Fei were both stunned and silent. The man in white coughed twice and stepped into the carriage. I only heard a shout of life, and the carriage gradually moved away.

Qin Fei watched the carriage disappear around the corner of the street, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If it weren't for that gentleman to save me, you and I would be really miserable." Thankfully, you didn't draw your sword. ”

Xiang Chonghua Qi said: "Why can't I draw my sword?" Are you worried that my tricks are not Xuanwu Tan's and will be flawed? ”

Qin Fei sighed and said: "Xuanwu Tan's martial arts are free and easy, there are no fixed rules, and ten people can play ten styles. No one can simply determine which move or style must or may not be Xuanwu Tan's kung fu. Only the technique of drawing the sword can distinguish the authenticity from the false. If you really drew your sword at that time, even if the master was there, you wouldn't be able to hold it back. ”

Xiang Chonghua patted his head and said with a smile: "Look at me, I only learn swordsmanship but don't pay attention to drawing my sword." He sighed: "I used to hear them say that it was always strange for men to be fascinated by men, but until today I didn't know that men can be so beautiful." Although Li Mumei is handsome, compared to him, she is simply a milky little white face. ”

Qin Fei thought of the man in white, and a wonderful feeling surged in his heart, some were unconvinced, some were jealous, and more were ashamed of themselves. He seemed to say to himself, "Who is the man in white, and why have I never heard of it?" He seems to be familiar with Xuanwu Tan, but why haven't I even met him? ”

Xiang Chonghua looked at the small courtyard and sighed: "I have been dragged by Guo Yu for most of the day, and I will definitely not be able to leave today." Are we going to go in and rest for the night? ”

Qin Fei walked straight up the stone steps, grabbed the door knocker and said, "Let's talk about it first." No matter how powerful the rich man is, he can't compare to the royal family of a big country, and if he is unhappy in the Qi country, it is not bad to defect to the Han family again. He took two deep breaths, paused, and knocked on the door.
