Chapter 505: Hitting a Wall (Part I)
"That's it, senior brother, when the time comes, you can send someone to inform me." Yun Ting said.
Looking to the side, you can follow the wide open window to see a large area of Luoyang, if you look up a little more, you can see the blue sky above Luoyang City. Enjoying such a view, and then there is a breeze blowing, at this time, drinking a glass of the most ordinary wine, you can also taste a different feeling, and it is a kind of enjoyment.
It is not easy to have such a building in Luoyang City, not to mention such a building, I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles are mixed behind it. These are all earned by the senior brother with his own sword, and they are all his hard work.
"Also, I hope it's better for Senior Brother not to get involved, after all, above the court, it is not as simple as the rivers and lakes, many swords are invisible and invisible, and there is no blood left to kill people." Yun Ting instructed in the middle.
"I know." Shi Ah nodded, and put the glass of wine in his hand back on the low table in front of him. Of course, he knew the dangers above the court, and he also knew that some officials in the court were very unkind to him. Even if he is now the master of the underground forces in Luoyang City, in their eyes, he is still a ranger, at most he has a little strength with the first four words.
If it weren't for the junior brother, he would never have gotten involved in the chaos in front of him, but he could smell that dangerous smell. No matter how calm Luoyang City is now, in Shi A's eyes, Luoyang City has become a whirlpool, a whirlpool that is enough to kill people, no matter who is involved, they will be crushed and turned into powder.
He does have some strength in Luoyang City, and if he stomps his feet, Luoyang City in the shadows will shake a few times. But after all, he is a man in the rivers and lakes, and no matter how powerful he is, he is still vulnerable under the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. Even he Shi Ah can kill more than a dozen enemies in the so-called duel in the rivers and lakes, but in the battlefield, in the suppression of regular soldiers, he can only face the killing of more than ten people at most.
"Don't worry, I'm just a brother under my command today, and I met a eunuch who was in charge of procurement in the palace, and he came to buy vegetables, and I don't know anything else." Shi Ah picked up the wine glass and drank it down.
"After all, this Luoyang City doesn't belong to my kind of people." There was a bit of loneliness on his face.
Yun Ting nodded, he could see the loneliness on Shi A's face, but he didn't know what to do. Jianghu people have always made Jianghu people, with the breath of Jianghu people, with the actions of Jianghu people, no matter how they can not be integrated into the court, even if they are recruited, they are just the kind that they are the least valued.
His master Wang Yue is the same, don't look at becoming the prince's teacher now, he can be called the emperor's teacher in the future. But he has always been just a swordsman, even if he has an official and a half-position, he is the kind that can't even bluff people.
In Yun Ting's eyes, the court is a cage, netting people, making it impossible for people to escape. is a Dapeng bird, if it is caught in a net, it will become a caged bird, and even be strangled to death in an invisible net. Therefore, Yun Ting didn't want Shi A to get involved, and he didn't want Wang Yue to get involved, they weren't players, and they would have no chance to start over after they died.
He is different from the princes of the Beacon Theater, even if he dies, it is only the end of a journey for them. Even if it is a person like Ruyunting, who dies once and is equivalent to being deleted, he can still do it again, so he can do many things, and Shi Ah and Wang Yue, as well as those brothers and sisters, can also do it, but as long as they do it wrong once, it is over.
"Change." Yun Ting sighed softly, his voice so weak that Shi Ah couldn't even hear it.
Did Shi Ah listen to what he said earlier, and could he not participate in the general way as he answered? Participation, if you talk about participation, Shi A has already participated, but it is not deep. What Yun Ting didn't know was Shi A's choice in the future, but he knew that his choice was once his majesty, which was the majesty before the bitter battle with the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera in the palace, and in the end, what he got was just the choice of Luoyang's industry to lose all and wander the world.
Do you regret it? Probably people like them will not regret it, what they do is what they do, and what they should lose is thought about long before they do it. Therefore, Yun Ting felt that Shi Ah would not say it now, but when the real Dao Beacon Fire Opera princes were in danger, he would also choose to draw his sword.
Zhang Rang walked briskly in the palace, his chest constantly rising and falling, and there was a slight wheezing sound from his mouth.
He walked extremely fast, almost in a trotting posture, fine beads of sweat on his forehead, and a flush appeared on his pale bearded face, and Zhang Rang was different from usual. Anyone can see a hint of urgency from him, this is absolutely impossible for Zhang Rang to appear in ordinary times, as the most favored person of His Majesty the Emperor, the head of the ten permanent servants, what is the matter, who can make him feel urgent?
The palace maids and eunuchs who met Zhang Rang along the way, when they saw Zhang Rang, they all hid to the side, stopped, lowered their heads and saluted Zhang Rang. They were also very curious about why Zhang Changshou was in such a hurry and anxious, even if a few eunuchs wanted to solve problems for Zhang Rang, no one dared to move forward.
In that old days, there was a eunuch who wanted to shoot Zhang Rang's ass, who once stood in the way of Zhang Rang's progress and wanted to do troublesome things for Zhang Rang. It's a pity that he didn't have the opportunity to do things, but was dragged down by Zhang Rang and beaten to death!
Since then, no one dares to stand in the way of Zhang Rang's progress, and no one has made him even more annoyed when Zhang Rang is worried. In the palace, in addition to the emperor and queen, what makes these palace maids and eunuchs afraid is definitely the ten permanent servants! It's not just Zhang Rang, because any of these people, it's extremely easy to kill them, you don't have to do it yourself at all, you just need to give an order, and naturally someone will do it for him.
Passing through the corridor in the palace, he turned a few corners and hurried along, no matter who he met on the way, Zhang Rang's pace did not slow down. In the palace, except for the emperor and empress and the queen mother, no one is qualified to let Zhang Rang change his pace, even those concubines are the same.
Zhang Rang didn't have to flatter those concubines, on the contrary, it was those concubines who came to bribe him, because Zhang Rang's words could determine whether they could sleep tonight.
Zhang Rang finally stopped, took out a towel from his sleeve, carefully wiped his forehead, and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead completely before he beckoned to a little eunuch next to him.
"Throw it away." Zhang Rang threw the towel over.
The little eunuch hurriedly caught the towel and replied, "Yes, yes." He retreated, and the towel in his hand was very soft, even though it was soaked with sweat, he could still feel the softness of the towel in his hand, which was made of good cloth.
The little eunuch understood that the towel was good, but he would secretly keep it. Zhang Changshou threw it, then he must throw it or stay, after being discovered, stabbing Zhang Changshou there, it would be a dead end for him.
Where in this palace are there no eyes, where are there no calculations? The little eunuch exhaled softly, but he finally had a bite to eat and was able to survive, and that was enough.
After straightening the crown clothes, smoothing the wrinkles on the clothes, and straightening the crown on his head that had become crooked due to fast walking, Zhang Rang walked towards his destination. It was a door, and behind the door was the emperor's residence, and the emperor's dormitory was where he was coming.
As the emperor's dormitory, this is one of the most tightly guarded places in the entire palace, from the corner of the corridor where he walked, when he arrived, the entire corridor aisle on both sides of the solemn Yulin army soldiers.
Zhang Rang often saw this scene, so he didn't care, and walked straight outside the palace, when he was about to step in, but was stopped by the Yulin Army guards guarding in front of the palace gate.
"Zhang Chang waited, the commander has ordered, no one can enter without the command of His Majesty." A Feather Forest Army guard stood up and spoke up.
"Oh?" Zhang Rang's eyes suddenly shot a cold gaze, and he stared at the loud Yulin Army guard, his face suddenly became extremely yin.
"What do you say? We didn't hear it clearly, you say it again! The sharp voice was raised, and anyone could know that Zhang Rang was in a very bad mood now.
But it didn't work, the Yulin Army guard was unmoved by Zhang Rang's cold gaze, and still stood in front of Zhang Rang, and had no intention of retreating. And Zhang Rang said that he couldn't hear clearly, and asked him to repeat it, so the Yulin Army guard repeated it again.
"The commander has ordered that no one who has not received an order from His Majesty will not be able to enter."
"You—" Zhang Rang raised his arm and pointed his index finger at the Yulin Army Guard, his trembling fingers indicating that he was not in a calm state of mind right now.
Rage, rage! His lips trembled, and Zhang Rang's heart was so filled with anger that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence. It was the first time he had been stopped like this, and he was still a small soldier of the Yulin Army who he didn't look down on at all.
Even if the other party is a guard of the Yulin Army, an elite soldier guarding the palace, and he is even more than the soldiers of the army outside in terms of identity, he doesn't know how far, but in Zhang Rang's opinion, he is just like an ant. When was he able to be stopped by an ant? And it was such an unceremonious ant, who didn't give him face, and slapped him twice.
If it were other permanent attendants here, seeing this scene, I was afraid that they would all be happy, and they would all think that he was weak and deceitful. In short, if he doesn't find a ghost face, then wouldn't he prove that he can be easily trampled on by anyone?
Zhang Rang's hand was raised, and with his greatest strength, he fanned the face of the Yulin Army guard who was blocking him.
The Yulin Army guard remained motionless, allowing Zhang Rang's palm to fan him, without dodging or blocking. In his eyes, Zhang Rang's speed was too slow, he could easily dodge it, or he could easily catch it, but he didn't do it.
It's just a slap, and such a slap is much easier than a sword on the battlefield. What's more, he knows the power of the ten permanent servants, if he completely angers them, he is afraid that it will make it difficult for the commander, so it is better to take such a slap and let Zhang Rang spill his anger, and it will be fine.
The expected slap did not fall, and Zhang Rang and the guards of the Yulin Army were surprised.
"Are you stupid? Or I haven't taught you, on the battlefield, there is only a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye. If you can't dodge the arrows, run faster and plunge your sword into the enemy's body when the arrow hits you, killing him with him. ”
"My Liu Xuan's soldiers, there are no bad seeds, and there will be no fools!"
"Yes!" The Feather Forest Army guard replied loudly, becoming extremely solemn.
Liu Xuan appeared in front of him, and he was also beside Zhang Rang, Zhang Rang's palm, which was lifted into the air, and half of the palm that had fallen was firmly grasped by Liu Xuan. Liu Xuan's wide palm firmly held Zhang Rang's palm in the palm of his hand, and kept squeezing inward.
Zhang Rang's face turned red, then pale, and finally gritted his teeth, and cold sweat continued to drip down his forehead. No one knew that his palm had been freed from his desperate desire to break free, and in the end, he was powerless to struggle, only to feel the sharp pain of the palm being pinched again and again, as if it was no longer his own.
"Liu Xuan... You... Let me go! Almost from the gritted teeth out of these words, Zhang Rang was already weak and weak, if it wasn't for the palm of his hand being grabbed by Liu Xuan, he felt that he must have fallen to the ground and held his deformed palm and grinned.
Yes, it's a metamorphosis. Zhang Rangdu seemed to be able to feel that the bones of his palms had been pinched to pieces, after all, he had never experienced this kind of pain!
"Oh?" Liu Xuan said casually.
He plucked out his ear with his left hand, and flicked it again, as if it was playing some kind of fly, but in fact there was not even earwax in his fingers. The corners of his mouth hooked slightly, his eyes were full of indifference, but he asked suspiciously, "What did you say?" I didn't hear clearly. Also Who is Liu Xuan? Is it Liu Xuan, the commander of the Yulin Army, or which one is Liu Xuan? ”
"If you don't make it clear, how does he know who he's talking about? And how can it be let go? You say yes, Chang Changshi. The last three words, Liu Xuan bit hard, and at the same time, his palm pressed again, and continued to knead the palm of his hand, squeezing it, making the shape of the palm more distorted.
