Chapter 120
Qiu Yishui pouted and snorted: "Oh, if I hadn't condescended to be noble, with Tang Ying's stuffy gourd, where would I find a good girl like me." She grinned and reached out to touch Xiao Yezi's face, "We're talking about business, and you can wait for me next to you." After a while, my sister will cook for you personally, make your favorite beef fried dumplings, and feed you, a little dancer, okay? ”
Xiao Yezi nodded and waited obediently outside the big tent. Yunxi saw her standing outside the tent basking in the sun, her heart moved slightly, and beckoned to her: "The sun is poisonous outside, you come in." It's okay. Xiao Yezi then walked into the tent and sat in the corner, listening to them talk about the front-line events.
I only heard Chai Song say: "After Yan Yan retreated to Yandang City for a long time, there must be a hidden secret." ”
Yun Xi bowed his head and said, "During this time, I have been sending scouts to the city to investigate, but there has been no progress. Now that Yandang City has become an iron bucket, if you want to break the city, you need to contact the enemy's high-level, and it is best to capture the city defense map of Yandang City, so that we can formulate the next plan. But the qualifications of the Cloud City scouts are limited and cannot be accomplished. ”
Chai Song pondered for a moment and said, "According to the opinion of his subordinates, it is best to send a personal army to attack the upper echelons of Yandang City, so that the news will be more accurate." ”
Yun Xi smiled: "I think the same way, just waiting for you to come." Scout intelligence is your Leaving Pavilion specialty, and this matter is entrusted to a few of you, so be sure to get the city defense map of Yandang City. ”
Chai Song arched his hand and said: "Since this is the case, leave Tang Ying here to assist the helper, and I will sneak into Yandang City with Yishui as a footman to see if we can make a breakthrough." ”
Yun Xi was still thinking about it, and then Qiu Yishui interjected: "Pretending to be a foot merchant is hidden, but you can't get close to the high-level of Yandang City, I'm afraid you won't be able to get the city defense map as you wish." In general, the most circulating information in the city is the teahouse, wine shop, Qinlou Chu Pavilion...... It's better for me to pretend to be a dancer, Chai Song to pretend to be a musician, and mix into the Qinglou restaurant to listen, maybe there will be unexpected progress. ”
Yun Xi groaned: "Although the idea is good, but with your dancing skills, it is not enough to convince the public..."
When Xiao Yezi heard this, his heart was a little active, and he hurriedly stood up and said, "...... Helper, Xiao Yezi doesn't necessarily know much else, but when it comes to dancing, I still have some confidence. If you go into the city to listen to information, it is better to let Xiao Yezi go with Chai Song, if you can find out important information, it will also be helpful to us. ”
"So ......" Yun Xi hesitated for a moment, looking at Qiu Yishui and Chai Song, "What is your opinion?" ”
Qiu Yishui shook his head and said: "This is dangerous, Xiao Yezi doesn't know martial arts, and he has no experience, so he is afraid of encountering danger, so won't the gain outweigh the loss?" ”
Xiao Yezi hurriedly said: "I have been practicing physical skills and grappling for a while, and my equestrian skills are not bad, I can protect myself when I encounter danger, and I will definitely not drag you down." ”
Chai Song glanced at Xiao Yezi and said, "Then if you are asked to pretend to be a dancing girl, can you endure the hardships of a dancing girl?" In case you can't stand the suffering and show your feet, you are not the only one who suffers, and the whole plan will be dragged into the water by you. ”
Xiao Yezi said: "In this cloud city, everyone throws their heads and spills blood, as long as I can contribute to the great cause of resisting Yan, what is the point of suffering a little?" What's more, I have been learning dance with Yang Yizhao for a long time, and everyone sees how I dance, and it is more than enough to play a dancing girl. And I have a face, most of them don't know me, and I don't know martial arts, but it's easier to pretend to be a civilian, and it's not easy to be exposed. ”
Chai Song smiled: "That's ...... Let's help the master decide. ”
Yunxi heard a lot, still hesitating, raised his eyes, and saw Xiao Yezi looking at himself with blank eyes, as if he was very eager. Although he was unwilling to let Xiao Yezi get into danger, it was very important to steal the city defense map, so if Xiao Yezi and other people with skills went out, they would definitely get twice the result with half the effort than Qiu Yishui, and his heart was a little loose, and he also thought that this matter was an opportunity to exercise more, so he said: "Xiao Yezi, are you ready to sacrifice at any time?" When you really get to the city, everything is no longer under Zhaoyin's control, and you may be in danger at any time. You're just a pawn, and if necessary, there will be absolutely no one to protect you, and you'll probably sacrifice your life to complete the mission. Are you ready? If there is no such awareness, this matter will never be mentioned again. ”
Xiao Yezi said firmly: "Xiao Yezi will complete the task and live up to expectations." ”
Yun Xi said: "That's fine." Tonight, you will disguise yourself and sneak into Yandang City, no matter what, you will bring back the city defense map of Yandang City. He glanced at Xiao Yezi again and said, "...... All safety is paramount, and the enemy must not be underestimated. ”
Chai Song and Qiu Yishui got the order, so they stepped out of the big tent with Xiao Yezi and went to the nearby Linxian City to prepare for stealth. The three of them bought several dancers and musicians' clothes and dressed them neatly. Chai Song also purchased a guqin with a lot of money for performance. Qiu Yishui hired a carriage and made Xiao Yezi sit in the car and drive in front of the car. Chai Song rode the spring breeze alone. The three of them crossed the border between Zhaoyin and Yanjin and came all the way to Yandang City in Yanjin.
On the carriage, Xiao Yezi stretched hard, and then smiled: "...... It's finally out, and it's hard to get easy. ”
"Why, don't you like to stay in the barracks?" Qiu Yishui smiled, suddenly remembered something, took out a small bag from his arms, and handed it to Xiao Yezi: "This is what the Young Pavilion Master asked me to bring to you." ”
Xiao Yezi tilted his head and said with a smile: "It's not that I don't want to...... It's just ......" she blushed, "without Yang Yizhao by his side, it seems that nothing is interesting." She lowered her head and opened the small bag, but found that it was the impermanence lost soul incense given to her by Yang Yizhao in the past, so she snorted: "He still has a conscience." ”
Qiu Yishui laughed, hugged Xiao Yezi in her arms and rubbed it for a long time: "I can't imagine that our little dancer is suffering from lovesickness?" Shaoge mainly knows, and he must be very happy. When this was done, I wrote to him as soon as I could, telling him that the little goblin he was thinking about him was also thinking about him. ”
Xiao Yezi rarely showed a hint of shame, and stretched out his hand to hit Qiu Yishui: "Don't you also have Tang Ying in mind?" And the face says about me. ”
Qiu Yishui grinned: "Okay, okay, it's me suffering from lovesickness, okay?" I can't say anything about you. This time I entered the city, I played your maid Sister Shui, Boss Chai is a musician and a leader, and you pretended to be a dancing girl. Usually dancing girls have a stage name, have you figured out something? ”
Xiao Yezi smiled: "What is the stage name? I wouldn't want to ...... Didn't Yang Yizhao give me a flower named Shuyan before, just use this. ”
"Shu Yan is good, but there are too many people in the Tianwang Gang who know Shu Yan, and I am afraid it is inappropriate to use this name again." Qiu Yishui said, looking at Chai Song, "You have a high culture, do you have any good names to recommend?" ”
Chai Songyou sighed: "Do you know that my culture is high at this time?" Why don't you say it when you fight for the New Year? ”
Qiu Yishui said angrily: "Chai Song, you are all the person who is the master of the pavilion, why are you still so verbose?" Say it quickly, say it quickly. ”
Chai Song smiled, pondered for a moment, Fang cleared his throat, and said with a smile: "I can't think of any good names for a while, but this morning I saw a rare good word from the helper-red waist." What do you think? ”
Xiao Yezi's eyebrows frowned: "Red waist? I've only heard of Green Waist. But it's kind of nice to read. ”
Chai Song smiled: "The green waist is a dance species, and the red waist is a ...... It is probably a new word that the gang leader is obsessed with. I just glanced at the big tent, and saw that there was such a letterhead full of poems mixed with many official documents, and it was densely packed with these two words. I don't know if it means anything special to him or not. Anyway, we're just borrowing it, so it's not plagiarism. ”
"The name is excellent, it is the surname of Xiao Ye...... Do you want to call it Chang Hongwaist? It's not a good idea, isn't it? Qiu Yishui thought for a while, "Xiao Yezi, aren't you and Li Li a family, why don't you call it Li Hongyi, how about it?" ”
"Li Hongwaist, Li Hongwaist...... That's good. Xiao Yezi smiled and accepted, "Speaking of Li Li, how is he now, everything is okay?" ”
Chai Song quipped: "He, he's so good." Mr. Yeli, the new Fengrui camp master, took over the Genesis Building in one fell swoop, and the prestige of Fengcheng was greatly enhanced, but I was jealous of my little pavilion master. ”
"Really? Was Ren Qingmei driven away by him? The little leaf wrapped around Qiu Yishui's neck, and he was overjoyed when he heard it, "This is really a big deal!" ”
"No, this Mr. Yeli may be patient." Qiu Yishui said with a smile, "He not only defeated Gao Lan with his own ability, took the position of the leader of the Fengrui battalion, subdued Ren Qingquan with righteousness, and even took Ren Qingmei's spy identity, and finally relied on benevolence to make the Creation Building respect him as a guest, won the Creation Building for the helper, and ensured the military supply of Cloud City." Tell me, is this considered a top-notch achievement? ”
Hearing Li Li so promising, Xiao Yezi smiled sincerely: "Great, he has suffered so much, and now he has finally paid off." ”
Qiu Yishui smiled: "Not bad." It's a pity that she couldn't catch Ren Qingmei at that time and let her slip away. Otherwise, Li Li's parents' revenge can also be avenged. ”
Chai Song smiled: "Skynet is magnificent, and over time, it will be known." ”
"That'...... Does Yunxi know Ren Qingmei's true identity? Xiao Yezi suddenly thought of Yunxi, and his heart trembled, "He's going to die of sadness." ”
Chai Song smiled: "Don't worry, the helper and Ren Qingmei have not been all the way for a long time, I may regret or have a little regret, but I can't really talk about sadness." What's more......" he glanced at Xiao Yezi, "What's more, he already has a place in his heart, and Ren Qingmei is just the past for him." ”
Xiao Yezi smiled: "That's right, in his heart, no one can compare to Jing Ying." ”
Qiu Yishui's eyes turned, and he reflexively hugged Xiao Yezi: "Don't think about it so much, the helper has the blessing of the helper, you just need to think about the young pavilion master!" She got back into the car, picked up the makeup pen, and said with a smile: "Now the young pavilion master is not here, so I have to let my sister water paint your eyebrows." Come on, come on, the little dancer is seated, let's almost arrive in Yandang City, we have to quickly put on makeup and dress up, just like an exotic dancer, right? ”
Xiao Yezi smiled, then tilted his face and let Qiu Yishui put on makeup.
At nightfall, they came smoothly to the front of Yandang City. Xiao Yezi looked out from the car and saw a black brick city wall standing majestically in front of him, indescribably magnificent. Although this Yandang City is located at the border, it is also a fortress city. Seeing that he was about to approach the city gate, Xiao Yezi put on the veil that had been prepared for a long time and prepared to enter the city.
As they expected, the Yandang City Gate was indeed stationed with layers of officers and soldiers to strictly check the passers-by. At this time, the sky was gradually darkening, and it was the time for the garrison to change its guards. The officers and men on duty have not yet taken turns to rest, but they are tired for a day, and the inspection has been a little lax.
Chai Song stepped forward and secretly stuffed some scattered silver into the hands of the officers and soldiers on duty: "Big brothers, you have worked hard. We are foot artists from the Western Regions, and we want to borrow the treasure of your city to play a treasure, earn a few mouthfuls of food, and ask the big brothers to be tolerant and let go, and after getting along for a long time, the benefits of the big brothers are naturally indispensable. ”
When the officers and soldiers got the silver, what else was there to say, and said with a smile: "Okay, even if you kid knows how to be filial, go to the city." ”
Chai Song nodded and bowed, came back to lead the spring breeze, and prepared to drive into the city.
At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near. As soon as Xiao Yezi looked up, he saw a big man with a rough appearance driving a horse and leading a team of elite soldiers from outside the city to the city gate. When the soldiers saw the big man, they stepped forward and saluted: "General Akuibu." ”
The big man known as Ah Kuibu looked arrogant, opened the soldiers who came forward to flatter him with a whip, and said loudly: "Look at your slack appearance, the soldiers have no soldiers, are you looking for a whip?" Isn't it enough to just eat a defeat? Waiting to eat the uncle's whip! You, you, and you, the people who come and go must be checked clearly, and they can't be released at will! If you don't work hard, be careful that your head will be chopped! A bunch of colorless pigs, not enough to succeed and more than to lose! ”
The soldiers seemed to be accustomed to the ferocity of Akuibu, and said busily: "Yes, yes, General Akuibu taught a lesson." ”
"Ah Kwai Bu, you're angry with the creeps again."
Xiao Yezi turned his head to look when he heard the sound, and saw a tall, thin and heroic young man riding a horse out of the city. In the twilight, it can be seen that this person is handsome, with a slight beard under his chin, and his bearing is extraordinary, and he is obviously a big man.
"Xuan Ce, you don't meddle in your business. These pigs can't do anything if they don't teach them a lesson. Akuibu said fiercely.
The young man known as Xuan Ce smiled slightly, very steady and strong: "Now that the enemy is present, our every move is under Xiao Yunxi's nose, and it is not easy to go wrong." ”
Ah Kwai Bu snorted: "I teach my soldiers, you don't mix." On one side, I saw the three of Xiaoyezi. I saw Xiao Yezi wearing an exotic gauze skirt, describing graceful and graceful, although there was a light veil on her face, which concealed half of her face, but the eyes that were exposed were very smart. His eyes lit up, and he drove his horse to Xiao Yezi: "You, take off the veil!" ”
Xiao Yezi was asked about his face, and his heart sank. Chai Song hurriedly stepped forward, blocked between Xiao Yezi and Ah Kuibu, bowed down and said: "The official is invited, we are traveling artists, we have just arrived in Guicheng, and we want to borrow the precious land to place orders to sell art and earn a few hard-earned money." If you disturb the official, please forgive the official. Although our young lady is a dancing girl, she is small and doesn't understand the rules, so she asked the official to raise his noble hand and let us into the city, so as not to clumsy the official's eyes. ”
"Maidome?" When Ah Kuibu heard this, his heart brightened, and he squinted and smiled, "Then we have to check it even more." He raised the tip of the whip and nodded a little leaf in the air, "You, quickly take off the veil, and let me see your face, uncle." If you are born beautifully, then you don't need to be a dancing girl, just go to the city with the uncle, and let you eat and drink spicy food. ”
Seeing that this Ah Kwai Bu didn't know what to do, Chai Song's eyes were dark, and he was annoyed. Qiu Yishui even clasped her hand on the soft whip behind her waist, ready to attack at any time.
Hearing only a chuckle, Xiao Yezi stood up from the car. Although she was small, standing on the cart, she was not much shorter than Ah Kuibu on a horse. I only heard her smile clearly: "This official, the little woman is just the color of the willow, accept your noble eyes, the little woman has gold on her face, and it is an honor." ”
"In that case, take off the veil and let the master see." Aguibu laughed.
Xiao Yezi smiled: "According to the courtesy, since the official has ordered, the little girl should do it." It's just that the little woman has a difficulty, and she asks the official to listen carefully. After listening, if the official insisted on letting the little girl take off her veil, or accompany her into the city, the little woman would obey her fate. ”
Ah Kwai Bu looked surprised: "Oh? Let's hear it. ”
Xiao Yezi bowed on her knees and said softly: "The little girl has been weak and sick since she was a child, and her parents took the little girl to seek medical advice all day long, and she took an unknown amount of medicine, but it had no effect at all. Later, I met a goddess, and the goddess said that the little girl would not see anyone for 18 years before the disease could be eliminated. But the little woman's family fell in the middle of the road and fell into the dust. The little woman couldn't, so she had to make a poisonous oath in front of the gods and Buddhas, and before the expiration of 18 years, no matter how she ate or slept, she could not take off the veil to show her true face, and she could only take off the face towel unless she met the true son of heaven. If it weren't for the true destiny, anyone who saw the true appearance of the little woman would have to have their intestines rotten, endure the suffering of no return, no one cares, return to the West alone, and after death, they will be crushed and scattered, affecting their families. At first, there were also high-ranking officials and nobles who did not believe it and forcibly wanted to take the little girl's face scarf, but they all immediately swore an oath. The little woman couldn't bear to let the official be cursed by this, so she told the official in advance, so as not to let the official be burdened by the little woman. ”
Hearing such a vicious curse in her mouth, Ah Kuibu's face also changed: "This ......"
Xiao Yezi smiled slightly: "The little girl is more than seventeen years old this year, and she is only a few months away from the poison oath deadline. Since the little woman came here, she naturally had to settle down for a while and earn enough money before leaving. As the saying goes, a good meal is not afraid of being late. If the official really wants the little girl to accompany him, please ask the official to be patient for a while, and when the poisonous oath period passes, it will naturally be as the official wishes. Of course, if the official can't wait, he can also carry a sedan chair to marry the little woman Ming Media and make the tree his wife. In this way, the poisonous oath should not be taken, the little woman will have a lifelong support, and the official can get his wish. ”
