Chapter 119: Night Meeting (3)
The autumn night was deep, the darkness shrouded the shadows of the two people, and the wind seeped in through the windows. The cold that penetrates the bones.
Zhao Yin stood at the window entrance, his hand clasped his sleeve arrow, and the tall figure blocked the faint light from the window, and a figure was pitch black.
There was no light in the room.
In the darkness, Uzhisu quickly approached him.
There was a wind, he seemed to be giving a salute, and his voice was very low, "The matter is urgent, and Xiao Wang has no choice but to use this unpopular means to invite the governor to come." When he gets out of trouble in the coming day, Xiao Wang will ask for guilt again. ”
Zhao Yin didn't move, "You recognize me?" ”
Wu Risu said: "The demeanor and appearance of the metropolitan governor are unparalleled in the world, and the Jingshi will never forget it, how can he not recognize it?" ”
The two of them have only met once in Beijing.
Seeing that Zhao Yin didn't answer, Wu Risu was afraid that he would be suspicious and hurriedly explained.
Xiao Wang thought that the person invited was General Pei today, but he was still nervous. As soon as I saw the governor, my heart was steady. Only then did I dare to make an appointment to meet tonight. ”
Zhao Yin frowned: "The eldest prince made a long story short. ”
Wei Xiaolong made trouble outside, which temporarily attracted the attention of everyone in the post house, but if the delay here was too long, it would still be easy to attract the attention of others.
Wu Risu is a smart person, he doesn't need to pull it out, he knows the powerful relationship.
He solemnly bowed his hand: "Don't dare to hide it from the governor." On the day the princess disappeared in Qingshan Town, more than a dozen Uliang Khans who died were all Xiao Wang's henchmen. Among them, there is Mr. Tuglu, who watched me grow up...... The rest of the people, including the guards you saw in my room today, were all sent by the second prince to monitor Xiao Wang. ”
Zhao Yin said in a deep voice: "The struggle for power of Wuliang Khan, it is inconvenient for this seat to interfere. ”
Wu Risu seemed to expect him to say this, put his fingers on the window rafters, and looked sideways at Zhao Yin's face, such an angle, after adapting to the darkness, both of them could see the outline of each other's faces clearly.
And, the sincerity in the eyes of Uzhsu.
"If the adults refuse to lend a hand, Xiao Wang will definitely die tragically in Nanyan, and he will not be able to return to Wuliang Khan. At that time, the Uliang Khan will fall into the hands of the second prince, Laisang is a cruel and warlike man, and if he is in power, it will not be a good thing for Nanyan......"
Zhao Yin lowered his eyes, and his voice was like a cold wave.
"It's not something I'm going to worry about."
Seeing that he was unmoved, Wu Risu sighed low and said helplessly.
"The Metropolitan Governor can ignore the internal affairs of Wuliang Khan, ignore the affairs of Xiao Wang, but he can't ignore the people of Nanyan, the life and death of Princess Huaining, and the big case of Qingshan Town, right? If it had been left unattended, the Metropolitan would not have been here. ”
Zhao Yin stood in the shadows, there was a brief silence.
"Is it a man, is it a beast?"
"People."
Uzhisu said it categorically.
"If it weren't for Tuglu's death that night, Xiao Wang would probably no longer be in the world, or disappear in front of people like the princess. Tugru must have seen them before he died, and I saw his eyes, unwilling, frightened, desperate...... There is also anger and hatred. ”
Zhao Yin was silent.
Wu Risu continued: "That night, the family team arrived in Qingshan Town, because the princess was unwell, we did not rush to Lulongyi overnight, and a group of people settled in Qingshan Town. At dinner, Xiao Wang drank only a glass of wine and did not wake up. When I woke up again, something had already happened, and more than a dozen people in the entire family team were attacked by wild beasts, gnawed all over their bodies, and all of them had their tongues pulled out by wild beasts, and Xiao Wang was only a little bit closer, and he died in Huangquan......"
His voice was choked and hoarse.
A faint light poured out of the window, revealing a gray face.
Zhao Yin asked, "Then why are you okay?" ”
"Before Tuglu died, he pressed Xiao Wang under the door panel and protected him in his arms, and General Wei happened to rush back."
Wu Risu raised his head when he said this, "I suspect that they set up a suspicious array to lure General Wei away in order to attack me and my people. The beast attack is even more nonsense. ”
"Who are they?"
Zhao Yin's answer, Wu Risu has been thinking about it for a long time.
Xiao Wang wasn't sure. But it must be someone who wants to kill me......"
"How do you want this to help you?"
"I don't have anyone around me who can be used, and my life is in danger."
"What about Jacob?" Zhao Yin remembered the young man who delivered the message.
"Dead." Wu Risu spoke calmly, and his tone could not hide his anger and sadness, "Jacob is a member of the second prince, and it is only because he has received my favor that he is willing to help me go and deliver the message. He didn't know anything, and there was nothing on the letter. But they pressed him, and when he couldn't answer, he was killed......"
As he spoke, he picked up a bottle of "Hualing Wine" from the table and stuffed it into Zhao Yin's hand.
"Now they give me this wine every day, but they don't dare to ask me to give a bottle to adults. Today, before the adults walked out of the inn, someone broke the flask, and you didn't doubt it, why? ”
The room was very quiet.
Zhao Yin didn't make a sound, and Wu Risu said softly.
"The post guards are Nan Yan's post guards, and they killed my people. How big is this round? Who is the person who laid it out? Xiao Wang didn't dare to guess, but with Xiao Wang's strength, he was unable to return to the sky, so he had to turn to the Metropolitan Governor for help...... When the Governor leaves tonight, I don't know how many days I will live. ”
His voice grew smaller and quieter as he spoke.
After a pause, he smiled softly.
"With the disappearance of Princess Heqin, the alliance between Dayan and Uliang Khan is on the verge of collapse. As soon as I die again, my father Khan, who has long been outside the pass, will become famous. The war is all together, and the lives are devastated, is this really what the Metropolitan Governor wants to see? ”
As soon as the words fell, the door panel "clanged", and the door was pushed from the outside.
"His Royal Highness, do you have something to call a minister?"
Pushing the door directly like this, where is what the subordinates should do?
Wu Risu had already pressed the door from the inside with the table just now, and the man couldn't push it open after a few attempts, and he was a little impatient.
"Your Highness, Your Highness has opened the door."
The sudden voice startled Wu Risu.
Angry and anxious, he waved his sleeves violently and smashed a teacup with a thud.
"Get out. This king gets up all night, and he has to report to you? ”
The visitor was very vigilant, "Why doesn't Your Highness turn on the lights at night?" ”
"Bakker, you're too lenient to avoid it?"
"Your Majesty is also thinking about the safety of His Royal Highness the Great Prince. Tugru and the others have already fallen in the mouths of the beasts. If anything happens to His Highness again, it will be difficult for us to explain it to the Great Khan...... Tonight is a little restless, please open the door and let the ministers take a look. ”
Wu Risu glanced at Zhao Yin deeply and turned his head.
"Get out of here."
"Your Highness, there seems to be something wrong with your voice, have you been kidnapped......
The man began to kick the door violently.
Zhao Yin glanced at it and patted Wu Risu on the shoulder.
"General Wei is credible."
With that, he pushed the window open.
The night breeze poured in, and Wu Risu's breath tightened, suppressing the voice.
"Xiao Wang owes you a favor. If there is a coming day, it must be returned. ”
Zhao Yin's back paused slightly, did not answer, jumped up, and hid into the darkness again.
Just then, the door was kicked open by someone outside.
Bakker barged in with a group of men.
"Your Highness, Your Highness!?"
The light of the lantern illuminated the room as if it were daylight, and Bakr looked around, but no one was there. He also found that Uzhisu had pressed the table against the door, and he stood by the window alone, thoughtful, and couldn't help but get nervous.
"But someone has come in?"
Wu Risu put one hand behind him and turned coldly.
"This king doesn't even have the power to open the window to breathe?"
"I don't dare." Bakir put his hand on his chest, lowered his head, and spoke very well, but when Uzhisu turned around, he turned back and kicked the two guards, and scolded resentfully.
"Let you protect Your Highness so well, how dare you drink and fall asleep? If you like to sleep so much, then you can sleep for the rest of your life. ”
The two guards were so frightened that they quickly knelt down and begged for mercy.
Wu Risu looked at him coldly, and his eyes became indifferent.
"In front of this king, if you want to kill, you can kill, if you want to fight, Bakir, is there still a big prince like me in your eyes?"
Buckle looked back and smiled.
"The minister is also for the sake of His Royal Highness......
With that, he smiled darkly.
"Someone, seal the window of His Royal Highness the Great Prince, so that no more wild beasts will enter and leave and hurt His Highness. The rest of you, follow me to look around, if there are any wild beasts that are scurrying around late at night and running into the inn to hurt people......"
"Damn, which bastard."
There was a loud roar, and heavy footsteps sounded outside.
"In the middle of the night, shouting. Don't you want Lao Tzu to sleep? ”
