Not long after, the two main doors of the general Yamen of Tongguan opened suddenly, and a person walked out under the escort of two or so two teams of soldiers, who was neatly clothed, walked quickly in front of Qiu Yizhi, and suddenly bowed his head, and said: "It turned out that His Royal Highness Yi arrived, Wang Shijie was disappointed, and I ask for forgiveness." Holding the name card in both hands, he was going to return it to Qiu Yizhi.

Qiu Yizhi had no time to worry about etiquette with him, so he hurriedly helped Wang Shijie up, took the post, and said: "I have important things to do, and I will talk to you when I enter the yamen." ”

Wang Shijie is not a guard of Youyan Palace, but a fortress station set up in the depths of the grassland north of Guangyang City all the year round. Therefore, when Wang Shijie followed Emperor Zheng Rong, who was still the king of Youyan, to burn grass in the north, Wang Shijie saw the famous "His Royal Highness Yi" a few times, and knew that his identity was unusual, and he might really have something important.

So Wang Shijie immediately led Qiu Yizhi and others into the yamen, ordered someone to cover the door, and invited Qiu Yizhi to the hall to speak.

Qiu Yizhi didn't even want to delay the time to walk to the main hall of the Yamen, so he asked Wang Shijie to reprimand the soldiers beside him at the door, and said to him: "I have urgent affairs on my body, and I must go to Luoyang to run an errand, and I also have more than 200 cronies and guards by my side, so I want to leave immediately." You're going to open the door for me, and I'm going to get through. ”

Wang Shijie had already heard this from the mouth of the inspector, but he still couldn't agree, and said: "Your Highness Yi, it's not that the last general won't help in this matter. The holy decree that had just arrived the day before said that if someone intended to cause chaos, he should immediately lock up Tongguan, and not a single rabbit could be put in it, otherwise he would be subject to military justice. The last general is timid and blessed, so His Highness should not embarrass the last general. ”

Qiu Yizhi frowned, and said: "The matter on me is related to the world's plans, if you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid you won't be able to afford it." Even if the law of the country can spare you, I will not let you go if I do the right thing for heaven. ”

The tone of these words was extremely heavy, which made Wang Shijie's face look embarrassed: "Your Highness Yi, this matter is really not accommodating...... Resisting the order is death, obeying the order is also death, it is better for the last general to kill himself now! ”

Qiu Yizhi has done a lot of deviant things, but in fact, he doesn't understand the weight of a piece of paper in the hearts of ordinary military generals and officials, and he can't figure out why Wang Shijie is so pedantic.

He was just about to speak out again, but Lin Shuhan behind him grabbed Qiu Yizhi's shoulder and whispered a few words in his ear.

Qiu Yizhi listened to Lin Shuhan's words, as if he had been empowered, and immediately showed a smile on his face, and said to Wang Shijie: "Well, if you have difficulties, then I will no longer embarrass you." ”

Wang Shijie was almost in tears, and when he heard that Qiu Yizhi's attitude had turned one hundred and eighty degrees, he immediately smiled and said gratefully: "His Royal Highness Yi can understand the feelings, and he will definitely be a prince for all generations in the future, and he will always enjoy wealth and ......."

Qiu Yizhi interrupted him and said: "I can't pass the test for the time being, but I can't rest assured that I have something to do." Why don't you take me to the top of the wall? ”

Wang Shijie listened to such a request, and hesitated again - Qiu Yizhi's reputation as His Royal Highness is too loud, and the soldiers and generals of Lao Youyan Dao all know that he is bold and strange, and he can always succeed - he wants to go to the wall to inspect, could it be that he has to come up with some kind of ghost idea?

Wang Shijie was still hesitating, but Qiu Yizhi was already impatient: "What? Are you made of gold? If you don't let me pass, you can't even take a look at the wall? Afraid that I won't be able to turn a few pieces of your wall? ”

Wang Shijie immediately apologized: "No, no, it's not like that. The last general heard that the lord had brought more than 200 people with him...... That, the last general is not strict in governing the army, and the wall is very messy, and I am afraid that it will not be able to accommodate the team of 200 people. ”

"Don't worry, my personal guards are all stationed outside the gate, and they won't go up to your wall." Qiu Yizhi explained, "Are you satisfied now? ”

Of course, Wang Shijie was satisfied - after he received the holy decree, he deliberately strengthened the protection of Tongguan, and doubled the number of troops on the basis of the original standing 500 soldiers guarding the pass, so now in addition to the soldiers guarding the pass, the troops that can be mobilized on the wall of the pass are more than 300 people. In case this "His Highness Yi" really wants to forcibly break through, then these 300 soldiers guarding the pass against the more than 200 people brought by Qiu Yizhi may not have a chance of winning, but it is quite enough to deal with these four people.

So Wang Shijie said: "Okay, the last general will be the master today, and let His Highness Yi take a good look at the military appearance of my Tongguan soldiers!" ”

On the wall of this Tongguan Pass, Qiu Yizhi once came up once in the process of "fighting against rebellion". At that time, it was the time when the veteran Bai Wenbo led the army to fight against the Youyan army, and the walls were smoky and full of messes, far from being as neat and orderly as today. Although it is not the same in peacetime and wartime, it can also be seen that Wang Shijie is obviously humble, not only does he not "govern the army strictly", but he is quite strategic.

Therefore, Qiu Yizhi praised: "General Wang is really too modest. I have also seen the use of soldiers by Dai Luanxiang, Cui Nan, and Wei Hu. General Wang's leading the army today is not as good as those famous generals, but it is also quite impressive. ”

Wang Shijie didn't know the news that Emperor Zheng Rong had died, and all he wanted was to add an official to the knighthood, and the righteous highness in front of him, who was quite able to speak in front of the emperor, had such an evaluation of himself, if he could say a few good words for him in front of the emperor, he would be able to prosper in his official position.

So Wang Shijie said with a smile on his face: "His Royal Highness Yi is really a prize, those few are all famous generals in the world, how dare you compare with them?" ”

Qiu Yizhi didn't answer, and looked down to see that the gate on the east side of Xiongguan was full of people, so he asked, "What are these people doing?" ”

Wang Shijie hurriedly replied: "They are all business trips waiting to pass the customs." The holy decree came too quickly, and it only called for the immediate closure of Tongguan, but it did not say when it would be opened, and the last general did not know how to explain it to them, so he had to let them wait first. When they waited in a panic, they naturally dispersed. ”

When Qiu Yizhi heard this, he thought: This Wang Shijie is really a martial artist, and it is too direct and simple to think about things......

He turned around and walked a few steps to the west, pointed to the bottom of the wall, and said, "Are there people waiting to pass the border here?" ”

Wang Shijie glanced down and replied, "Yes." The decree only says that the level is to be closed, but it does not specify which side it is closed. The last general was timid, so he simply closed off both sides, saving me from blaming me and saying that I was not safe and reliable. ”

A hint of a smile suddenly appeared on Qiu Yizhi's face, and he said, "You are indeed very safe and reliable. It's a pity, it's a pity......"

Wang Shijie was a little ignorant when he heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Your Highness Yi, what is the pity?" ”

Qiu Yizhi turned around, stretched out his hand back and pulled Yu Chi Lianghong over, and asked, "This person, do you know who it is?" ”

Wang Shijie has been leading the army to train outside all the year round, and he has never done anything in the center, of course he doesn't know the identity of Wei Chi Lianghong: "The last general has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and I don't know where this person comes from." ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled again: "This name is Wei Chi Lianghong, have you heard of his name?" ”

Wang Shijie's eyes lit up: "Oh, I've heard of it." It turns out that you are the hero of Wei Chi! Look up for a long time. Yu Chi Daxia is the number one master of martial arts, and he ran errands with the emperor, and the last general was sluggish. ”

Yu Chi Lianghong was about to be humble, but Qiu Yizhi rushed in front of him and said: "Then General Wang knows what is the most proud martial arts of this Wei Chi hero?" ”

Wang Shijie didn't know why Qiu Yizhi wanted to lead the topic here, scratched his scalp, and replied truthfully: "Yu Chi Daxia must be proficient in all eighteen martial arts. As for which martial arts are the most proud, the last general really doesn't know ......."

"Then you're pretty honest. This Wei Chi hero, the most proud martial arts, is light skills. Qiu Yizhi turned his head and said to Yu Chi Lianghong, "General Wang still seems to be a little unconvinced. Brother, why don't you show it and open your eyes? ”

Yu Chi Lianghong agreed: "Okay, then I'll try my skills, please see the move!" ”

After that, Yu Chi Lianghong stepped forward, jumped lightly and stood on the battlement by the wall, let out a long whistle, and jumped to the outside of the wall.

Everyone was startled, and they hurriedly leaned on the wall to look down, but saw that Yu Chi Lianghong was wearing a lake-blue robe, as if all his weight had been removed and turned into a feather, allowing the wind to blow him to the left and to the right, and finally landed on the ground on the west side of Tongguan, raising a cloud of smoke and dust on the yellow earth.

It turned out that this was a countermeasure that Qiu Yizhi and Lin Shuhan secretly discussed-since there was no way to pass through the Tongguan gate in the light; The soldiers and horses brought were not enough to break through this majestic pass; Then the only way to do this is to look for an opportunity to sneak away.

The city wall of Tongguan is seven or eight zhang high, and ordinary people fall down from it, and they have to fall into a meat pie. Although Qiu Yizhi knew that Yu Chi Lianghong was strong in martial arts, he was also afraid that he would miss on such a high city wall, but the matter was urgent, and he had to send someone to the capital as soon as possible to report where Zheng Miao was, so he couldn't care about it so much.

Having said that, Qiu Yizhi was still very worried, seeing Yu Chi Lianghong flying away, he hurriedly looked into the distance, and saw Yu Chi Lianghong squatting on the ground for a moment before standing up, so he took two steps to the west. But his steps seemed to be a little faltered, and he seemed to be a little stumbling, probably injured.

Seeing this, Qiu Yizhi was even more worried, and hurriedly asked in a loud voice, "Big brother, are you okay?" ”

I don't know if Yu Chi Lianghong heard Qiu Yizhi's concerned inquiry, but I saw him wave his hand at the people on the city wall, and then quickened his pace and headed west.

Qiu Yizhi was a little relieved when he saw this, knowing that Wei Chi Lianghong's pace and body style, even if he was injured, he would not be much heavier, and he would not miss any major events - so his hanging heart suddenly let go of most of it, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wang Shijie was shocked by Yu Chi Lianghong's light skills that stood alone in the world, and before he could react, he only praised him: "It is worthy of being a hero of Yu Chi!" The last general has opened his eyes today. Oh, by the way, does Yu Chi Daxia know the way from Kansai? Do you want the last general to send someone to pick him up? ”

Qiu Yizhi looked at Wang Shijie's dumbfounded appearance and felt a little funny, so he quipped: "This Wei Chi hero's martial arts are strong when he flies down, but his martial arts when he comes up are very poor. I'm afraid that if I return to this wall, it will take three or five days to say the least! ”

Wang Shijie's face was full of doubts - when he saw Yu Chi Lianghong climbing the stairs, his pace was very vigorous, and he didn't seem slow at all; Even if it's slower than ordinary people, it can't take three or five days to climb the wall, right?

Wang Shijie woke up suddenly, blinked his eyes and asked, "Righteousness...... His Royal Highness Yi, so to speak, isn't it that Wei Chi Daxia has already broken through the pass? ”

Qiu Yizhi smiled at this time: "Your reaction is not slow, Yu Chi Lianghong has indeed left." He was ordered by me to go to the capital city of Luoyang to run errands. ”
