Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 6

I changed into a smoky butterfly dress, put on a little light makeup, and followed Ning Cui to the front hall. As soon as I got closer, I heard the sound of Jiaojiao's laughter, and I was already surprised, this was the sound of this place. There were several people sitting in the hall, basically hugging left and right. Only one of them drank on his own, and there was no girl with him.

I glanced at this man out of curiosity, he looked about my father's age, and he sat in the land of smoke and willows without the slightest worldly atmosphere, and he didn't feel like a thing in the pool. Ning Cui whispered in my ear, "This is the Lord of the Imperial History. He came to this drunken building just to deal with the meeting of his colleagues, so he drank by himself. Daxian used to be very safe. ”

I took the * she stuffed into me, said "thank you", and sat down next to him with a smile on my face. This kind of person should not like to be disturbed by others, and I did not make a sound, and filled his glass when it was full. Maybe I behaved differently than the other girls, but Mishi finally glanced at me as he took the glass. But how is it not quite the same as I imagined, in the face of my smiling face, he is like a ghost.

The surprise on his surface was fleeting, but the glass he was holding had spilled a lot of wine. He opened his mouth, but stopped talking. He turned his head and continued to drink, but a glass of wine drank the feeling of a cup of kung fu tea. I touched my face, it was very pale and scary, but I still applied a lot of grease, and I didn't laugh so much that it could have a scary effect!

Gradually, the others left the drinking room, and the laughter of the warblers and swallows gradually dissipated. I pinched my ears, I was still annoyed by this kind of scene. Ning Cui felt that this Lord Yushi was very safe, so she just stuffed the medicine powder to me and asked me just in case, and did not put it into the wine as before. The powder is still in my sleeve, not that I am too relieved of this Mishi-sama, but that I have not had the opportunity to use it.

After drinking a glass of wine, Mishi kept the glass in his hand. He has been in this position for almost an hour. I've been staring at this cup for almost an hour. When the other adults inside were gone, I couldn't help but say, "My lord, let the slave add a bar for you!" He stood up so steeply that I poured all the wine on the table with a shaky hand. He stood beside the table and suddenly arched his hand: "The county lord is in prison, but the lower official doesn't know it, it is the lower official's dereliction of duty!" Please, the county lord will punish him!"

I was already a little surprised when I saw his figure. Hearing his words, I was even more shocked. I also understand why Chu Yi recognized me, and the features other than the mask would betray a person. When Yucheng was in an emergency, I delivered medicine to my father, and I was holding a plate, but I didn't knock on the door, but kicked the door open with my foot. There was a strange man in Daddy's study, and the man was wearing a mask, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly. The man seemed a little overwhelmed when he saw me entering. It was the father who explained: "This is a little girl, there is no need to panic."

I stood up with my hands on the table, my fingers trembling slightly, and I said angrily, "You! You! You've defected?" I was so angry that I slapped the case away, and he hurriedly stopped me, "The county lord listens to the explanations of the lower officials!"

I'm not pretentious, I'll sit back immediately. This Lord Yushi of the Qi Kingdom, this person who has only met once in the Zhou Kingdom, I am also curious about his identity! Seeing that I didn't continue to be angry, he seemed to be relieved, and said, "The county lord has been practicing martial arts since childhood, please feel it, is there anyone outside?"

"How can this kind of place be so quiet that there is no one?" I thought about it for a moment and said, "I'll tell Mom to find a quieter room."

He put on a gesture of retreat, "County Lord! The lower officials don't dare to make a mistake!"

I rolled my eyes unconsciously, "Don't worry! I'm also the general's daughter, so you have to weigh it if you want to make it! Just find a quieter room, there are some things, you can say clearly! Otherwise, it's your adult who is harmed!"

When I pulled the still awake Lord Yushi out of the door, and asked Ning Cui to find a remote room, Ning Cui was surprised enough to stuff an apple into her mouth.

After Ning Cui walked for a while, Lord Yushi said: "In the previous dynasty, the lower official was a fallen scholar, and Ling Zun was the engong under him. The battle of Yucheng was a secret decision of the emperor. When the ministers of the DPRK and China found out, I was very worried about Eungong, so I dared to go to meet him. ”

I lamented in my heart that his explanation was quite simple and straightforward, and I thought it would be a long speech. I found a chair and sat down, "At that time, the Qi army surrounded Yucheng so much that not even a moth could fly in, how did you get in?"

"When Engong first arrived, the lower officials went to Yucheng to visit Engong when they heard the news. Engong told Xia Guan about the secret passage. ”

My dad really believed in him! There are only a handful of people who know about that secret passage. The reason why I am here is that the real Wu'er knocked me unconscious and sent me out of the city through the secret passage. That secret passage is related to the safety of Yucheng! "That's right! That secret passage!"

"Don't worry, the county lord! After King Li became the master, the lower officials privately ordered someone to block the secret passage. ”

I talked for a while, but I still couldn't tell whether the person in front of me was friend or foe. "I don't know anything about the previous dynasty! My dad never talked about it in front of me, sorry, I don't know much about it. However, I would like to ask you a question now. Are you facing the State of Zhou, or the State of Qi?"

He knelt down suddenly, "The previous dynasty was overturned, and the lower officials were grateful for the kindness of the first emperor of Qi State!" However, he never forgot Eun Gong. If, say, the county chief is the lower officer to make the choice. The lower officials can only say that loyalty is difficult to complete! The lower officials are always willing to go to the soup for Engong. However, the lower officials are officials of the Zhou State for one day, and they cannot forget the interests of the Zhou State for one day. ”

"Since the adult said so, I naturally understand the adult's choice. Then trouble adults to go to the palace to tell Chu Hao or go to the Li Palace's mansion to tell Chu Yi, after all, my existence will only destroy the interests of the Zhou State. ”

He lowered his head. "The county lord thinks so, and the subordinate can only die to achieve the law."

I lifted him up from the ground. "You are an old friend of your father, and you are the elder of Shang Wan. Please forgive Shang Wan for being rude just now. "Seeing that he is still terrified, I think I should change the subject," said after talking for a long time, and you didn't seem to tell me about your identity. ”

"The lower official's name is Yan Yi."

I silently repeated the name. I've heard this name, as if it was mentioned by the emperor. Once the emperor seemed to be very angry, and he threw a chapter in the study, saying that the Qi country also needs people like Yan Yi.

I felt him tugging at his sleeves before I came to my senses. yes, I forgot that I was still pulling on someone else's sleeve. I smiled awkwardly: "It turned out to be Lord Yan, it's the little girl who has no eyes, your reputation, the little girl has heard of it since she was a child, and I need your help now."

"The county lord just said! Xia Guan must do his best! ”

"You're welcome! I just had that attitude just now because I thought there shouldn't be any good people coming to this kind of place. So, some words are excessive. As you know, there is already a 'Shang Wu' buried, and she was buried with the rites of the queen. Now, standing here, it can be said that she is the daughter of a merchant, but she is not a merchant with a noble status. You are the incorruptible Lord Yan who is famous in the capital of Zhou, I should respect you, don't call me the county lord, just call me the same as my father. ”

I sat down and told me a brief account of what had happened recently. Including Chu Yi knowing that I was in the Zhou Kingdom, including me pretending to be a ghost to scare Ning Cui. "The new emperor of Zhou has ascended the throne, fortunately he is the crown prince of Zhou. I had some friendship with the crown prince when I was young, and now that I go back alive, Emperor Zhou will not blame me. It's just that I can't go back to Zhou yet, and I have to figure out one thing. However, I escaped from the Li Palace, and now I am penniless. So, I beg Lord Yan to give me a place to live!"
