Chapter 1630: Sun Shangxiang Goes Out of the City
For Sun Shangxiang, it was a sleepless night.
The words that Liu Wei dropped when she was about to leave made her toss and turn all night and couldn't sleep well no matter what.
I don't know what time it was, Sun Shangxiang finally fell asleep, but in her sleep, she still tossed and turned, as if she didn't sleep steadily.
The morning sun rises from the eastern horizon and spreads its golden glow over the earth.
A touch of morning light shone into the room through the window and shone directly on Sun Shangxiang's face.
She didn't sleep peacefully in the middle of the night, and she didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn, and the sun shining on her face didn't make her wake up.
"Childe!" Outside the door, the voice of a guard was heard.
The guard's voice was not very loud, and it was impossible for Sun Shangxiang, who was asleep, to hear it, and he was still asleep.
"Childe!" There was a call, but there was no response from inside the house, and the guard knocked lightly on the door and called again.
Sun Shangxiang still hasn't woken up, still immersed in sweet dreams.
The guard standing outside the door waited for a moment, but still did not get a response, so he increased his strength and tapped the door and called to the house: "Childe, Your Majesty is here to invite!" ”
Inside the house, Sun Shangxiang, who was sleeping, was awakened by the sound of knocking on the door, and in a trance, she heard the voice of the guard at the door.
Hearing that His Majesty was invited by someone, thinking of the sentence that Liu Wei had left before he left the night before, Sun Shangxiang sat up violently, his eyes were wide open, and his drowsiness was immediately dispelled, and he hurriedly said to the guard at the door: "Invite someone later, I'll get up!" ”
Sun Shangxiang responded, and the guard at the door didn't call her again.
Hurriedly got up, Sun Shangxiang put on his clothes, briefly freshened up, opened the door and rushed out.
As soon as she opened the door, she was outside the door, in addition to the guards who called her to get up, there was also a Han army wearing big red armor.
The helmet of the Han army has two short feathers inserted into it, which is very different from the ordinary Han soldiers.
He was a burly man, with several long wounds on the back of his hand pressing the hilt of his sword, and it was clear at a glance that he was a warrior of a hundred battles who had gone through countless battles.
Knowing that this person came to summon her on the order of Liu Wei, Sun Shangxiang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly arched his fists towards the Han army and asked, "Your Excellency was ordered by His Majesty to summon so-and-so?" ”
"Your Majesty got up early in the morning!" gave Sun Shangxiang a salute back, and Han Jun, who came to invite her, said: "Please go with a certain person quickly, don't let Your Majesty wait for anxiety!" ”
"Lead the way with your head tired!" After tidying up his clothes, Sun Shangxiang made a gesture of invitation to the Han army.
Han Jun nodded, did not give in to her, turned around and walked towards the door of the pavilion.
Sun Shangxiang followed closely behind the Han army, and she already knew that someone was coming to invite her guards, and under the greeting of the guards at the door, they left the room one after another and followed.
The Han soldier who led the way glanced back at the guards, and did not stop them from following, and walked straight out of the pavilion.
Out of the main entrance of the building, Sun Shangxiang found that there was a team of no more than a few dozen people waiting at the door of the building.
The dozens of Han soldiers in the queue were all palace guards with two short feathers on their helmets, and one of them was leading a tall horse.
Seeing Sun Shangxiang walking out, the Han army officer with this team stepped up to meet her, hugged his fists and arched at her and said, "Please get on the horse!" ”
Glancing at the war horse led by a Han army, Sun Shangxiang did not hesitate and walked straight over.
The guard door that followed her out of the pavilion was about to follow, when two Han soldiers stepped to block them, and the officer glanced at them and said, "Everyone, stay here and wait, and later, I will send Gongzi back!" ”
The palace guards, like the dragoon guards, have all practiced swordsmanship, and their swordsmanship attainments are very high.
Blocked by two palace guards, Sun Shangxiang's guards did not dare to make any disobedient moves.
They could feel that none of these palace guards could be dealt with at will, if these people were deliberately unfavorable to Sun Shangxiang, even if they followed, it would be useless!
A pair of eyes all looked at Sun Shangxiang, and the guards did not retreat, but their faces showed hesitation.
After all, the master of these people is Sun Shangxiang, she didn't speak, and the guards would not retreat to the hall lightly.
If Sun Shangxiang insisted that they follow, even if they knew that they were invincible and fought for their lives, they could only fight for their lives.
Realizing that the guards were looking at her, Sun Shangxiang nodded and said to them: "You wait and wait here, Your Majesty will summon you, there will be no difference, you and others will go together, it's not appropriate!" ”
"No!" The guards responded, and they all bowed back two steps with their fists clenched.
The officer who came to greet Sun Shangxiang with the team, when he saw the guards retreating, waved his hand and shouted to the guards in the team: "Go!" ”
A team of dozens of people, following behind the officers, surrounded Sun Shangxiang and left along the street.
The guards standing outside the pavilion watched Sun Shangxiang's back, and they did not turn back to the pavilion until the palace guards who greeted her disappeared at the end of the street.
Surrounded by Sun Shangxiang, the guards did not walk towards the palace, but walked straight towards the west gate of the city.
Walking along the street for a while, Sun Shangxiang felt that something was wrong, and asked the leading officer, "Dare to ask me where we are going?" ”
"Your Majesty is waiting outside the city!" Glancing back at Sun Shangxiang, the officer raised his hand and pointed forward and said, "Don't be anxious, when you go out of the city gate, you can see Your Majesty!" ”
The night before, Liu Wei asked her to wait in the pavilion, and Sun Shangxiang was a little suspicious, not knowing what arrangements he had.
The officer said that Liu Wei was going to summon her outside the city, which made her even more puzzled in her heart, and she couldn't understand what the emperor wanted to do.
Although she was suspicious in her heart, she didn't want to ask too much, so she had to be surrounded by this group of guards and go to the west gate of the city.
When they arrived at the west gate of the city, the officer leading the way stopped the line and trotted towards the Han army guarding the gate.
The Han army officers guarding the city gate also walked over to him.
Raising his hand to stop the trotting officer, the officer guarding the city gate arched his fist at him and asked, "Dare to ask Your Excellency, what is your business trip out of the city?" ”
After all, Sun Shangxiang was greeted by the palace guards, and the officers guarding the city gate did not dare to make a mistake, and the tone of the inquiry was not as blunt as usual.
The officer leading the team took out the waist card from his waist, flashed it to the officer guarding the city gate, and said: "I will be ordered by His Majesty to escort Jiangdong Sun Gongzi to meet outside the city!" ”
Not long after Liu Wei's Luan drove away, it was confirmed what the guard officer said, and the officer guarding the city gate stepped back and shouted to the Han army at the city gate: "Release!" ”
Luoyang City is not strict with the people and merchants who enter and exit, but it is quite strict with the sergeants who enter and leave the city.
It is precisely because of this that Sun Shangxiang and others will be blocked.
The Han army guarding the city gate stepped out of the way, and the officer who led the team forward made a gesture and shouted to the guards who were surrounding the team: "Go!" ”
Out of the city gate, Sun Shangxiang didn't see Liu Wei's Luan, and he was even more suspicious in his heart, and asked the officer: "Where is Your Majesty?" ”
"Right ahead!" Pointing forward, the officer said to her: "Son, don't worry, don't go a long way further, and you can see Your Majesty!" ”
Looking ahead, there was an empty space in front of him, and there was no shadow of Liu Weiluan driving at all, and Sun Shangxiang was even more suspicious in his heart.
Sun Shangxiang walked out of the west gate of the city surrounded by a group of guards, and it didn't take long for another team of palace guards to arrive at the city gate.
When they arrived at the city gate, the officer who led the guard did not wait for the officer guarding the city gate to ask, but first asked: "Have you seen a group of guards surrounding a prince out of the city?" ”
"See, it's not long since I left the city!" The officer guarding the city gate saw that the guard officer looked anxious, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he hurriedly said: "It's already tea time for them to go out of the city!" ”
When he learned that Sun Shangxiang had gone out of the city to make tea, the guard officer hurriedly beckoned his hand to the back and shouted, "Chase!" ”
The guards who followed him rushed into the city gate without hesitation, chasing after him.
Before rushing out of the city gate, the guard officer lifted his shirt and showed his waist card, and the officer guarding the city gate glared and said: "In the future, if someone pretends to be a palace guard to go out of the city, he must check the waist card!" ”
Knowing that something was wrong, the officer guarding the city gate didn't even dare to contradict half a sentence, but just kept saying yes.
The team of guards who surrounded Sun Shangxiang out of the city, he also checked the waist card, and it was almost exactly the same as the waist card of the palace guards, even if it was the palace guard, at first glance, I am afraid that there would be no flaws, not to mention that he was just a small officer responsible for guarding the city gate!
But thinking of the anxious appearance of the guards who had just rushed out of the city, the officers guarding the city gate felt a chill in their hearts.
Soon after the Han guards who chased out of the city gate left, outside the south gate of Luoyang City, a team supported a luan.
Under Luan's drive, Liu Wei rode a tall war horse, his brows were tightly locked, and his face was iron-blue.
Wang Zhen, who was standing beside him, had a worried face, and whispered to persuade him: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Sun Shangxiang was taken out of the city, and there are already guards to pursue him, so it should be fine!" ”
"I'm not worried about Sun Shangxiang's life!" With an expressionless face, Liu Wei looked ahead and said to Wang Zhen: "I just don't understand, who is so capable in Luoyang City that he can pretend to be a palace guard, lower his eyelids, and take Sun Shangxiang away?" ”
"Do you remember the city?" Holding his fists and facing Liu Wei, Wang Zhen suddenly came out with such a sentence.
When she asked like this, Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, looked at her suspiciously, and said: "When the city is the place where I and your two sisters meet, don't you think of something when you mention it at this time?" ”
"Not really!" Lowering his head, Wang Zhen said to Liu Wei: "Back in the city, several assassins attempted to murder His Majesty, and His Majesty turned evil into good fortune and defeated all kinds of assassins one by one. If you are about to be unified today, the momentum of the Han is like a rainbow, and your majesty can make the country tremble with just a wave of your hand, how can you still worry about some thieves? ”
