Chapter 119: The villain who sees the wind and rudder
"If you encounter an assassin again, you don't need to rush to the front, and there is no one around the Queen Mother, you just need to take care of the Queen Mother's safety."
Chundie and Qiuhong didn't continue to dwell on this question, but instead asked: "We didn't spread the news, and we don't know what happened outside, after losing contact, we are extremely worried every day, and we don't know ......"
Cheng Liu smiled lightly: "The outside is much quieter than in the palace, except for the martial law in Luoyang, the rest of the places are also recruiting, and when there are many heroes, no one will take the initiative to provoke trouble and secretly develop." ”
Chundie and Qiuhong both breathed a sigh of relief, since they lived in this courtyard, it was obviously not so simple to pass on the news.
was by Empress Dowager He's side before, so under normal circumstances, he could use others to spread the news according to Empress Dowager He's momentum, and no one would stop him.
But it's different here, it's not through your own hands, and if the news falls into someone else's hands, it may cause unnecessary trouble, so even if you want to get in touch with the outside world, you can only refrain from it.
Cheng Liu went to find a pen and paper, then spread it out on the table, and asked them, "If you have anything you want to say to Sister Sweet Potato, I'll help you take it out." ”
Chundie and Qiuhong glanced at each other, their eyes were red, and they said almost in unison: "Please take care of the son, if the two slaves and maids can still walk out of the palace alive in the future, and then call Sister Sweet Potato to their faces......"
Cheng Liu's raised arm trembled unconsciously, and he turned to take a serious note of what they said.
"I'll get you out as soon as I can."
Chundie shook her head: "Don't worry, there are many things in the palace, and the prince needs us." ”
Qiu Hong also replied: "If we leave, the high walls in the palace will definitely block the news inside, and the news will be blocked, which is very inconvenient for the prince's major affairs." ”
The more sensible the two became, the more guilty Cheng Liu became.
After all, he is not a native of the thinking of the ancients, and in his heart there is nothing more important than human life.
This is also the reason why Qiu Hong and Chundie almost quarreled with Empress Dowager He just now, Cheng Liu's worries about the two of them are getting heavier and heavier day by day.
"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements, after you are injured, I will arrange for you to go out of the palace, sweet potatoes and summer cicadas miss you very much, even Yu Youkui, hearing the news of your injury, didn't eat much for two days."
Qiu Hong and Chun Die smiled, but there were tears in their eyes.
"Please rest assured that Spring Butterfly and Autumn Red will live up to expectations."
Cheng Liu nodded slightly, he couldn't stay in the palace for too long, plus the sweet potatoes were still in Xiapi, and they had been waiting for Cheng Liu's news.
Before leaving, Chundie and Qiuhong reluctantly got up and sent to the door, and the figures of the two were slightly thin in the palace.
Cheng Liu knew that they had been standing at the door, but he had never been able to muster up the courage to look back.
The big eunuch had been waiting outside the door, and when he saw Cheng Liu coming out, he hurriedly drove the carriage to his side.
"Cheng Gongzi, can you leave the palace?"
Cheng Liu nodded slightly: "Let's go." ”
Along the way, it was still the scenery when I came, and after leaving Jiaofang Palace completely, there were more guards and palace maids.
In addition to the Queen Mother's dormitory, there are still many troops stationed in other places, so even if there is no one in Jiaofang Palace, it doesn't matter at all, the security measures on the periphery are obviously enough to be in place.
"I've been trying to ask which of the ten permanent servants you are. But I haven't had a chance, and today I suddenly had a whim again, and I don't know if I can get an answer. ”
Cheng Liu sat in the carriage and suddenly asked.
The big eunuch in the coachman's position just smiled: "Could it be that in Cheng Gongzi's heart, this answer is more important than life?" ”
"Not really, but I've seen a lot, and suddenly I feel that people like you seem to be very good. It seems that there is nothing to do, and the calculation in my heart is also very simple, there is no need to be a hero in the troubled times, as long as you know how to weigh the pros and cons, whether it is a villain who sees the wind and rudder, you can live a wonderful life. ”
The big eunuch in front smiled again: "What Cheng Gongzi said is very true, but according to your meaning, is our family a villain who tends to be inflammatory, or is it a grass on the wall that sees the wind and rudders?" ”
Cheng Liu also laughed and said: "Then naturally it is all occupied." When we met for the first time, I realized that power is not only so simple in this palace, but there should be many masters like you, right? It's just that he rarely shows his head, why practice martial arts? ”
There was no reply outside the car, and I don't know how long it took before a spy voice came.
"Cheng Gongzi, our family doesn't have great wisdom, if you can't even compare to others in kung fu, then how can you settle down in the palace? Different from the young people outside the city, what we do is to tie the head to the waistband of the trousers, and one accidentally has a different head, this mouth and mind can be simple, but to do things, you have to do it like fists and feet, right? ”
This time is an allusion to Cheng Liu, but now Cheng Liu can't care about so much, and at some times, for him, these words can't be put on the table at all, but if he doesn't say it, his heart is not happy.
For the people in the palace, he is particular about what he says and does, but he is not a person in the palace, and he does what he does outside the city, and at most he is taken care of by the big people in the palace.
But Huang Chengcheng died in front of him last night, and he didn't say anything in his heart, and a warning letter made the anger he had accumulated completely explode.
Since even the Queen Mother didn't give a good face, this big eunuch naturally let alone that.
"Does Cheng Gongzi have any other questions to ask?"
Cheng Liu just wanted to speak, but as soon as the eunuch said this, what he wanted to say was suddenly swallowed back into his stomach.
"Just send it out of the city."
The great eunuch replied with a good word, and then rode his horse and whip again, and hurried out of the city at a fast speed.
When he arrived at the gate of the city, Cheng Liu got out of the carriage, and after seeing the great eunuch leave, he rented a horse at the post station outside the city.
From here to Xiapi can be reached before evening at most, and in order to be in a hurry, Cheng Liu doesn't want to take a carriage anymore.
After riding the horse, Cheng Liu hurried down the horse.
……
At this time, Sweet Potato was sitting upright in front of the desk, with a map on the table, as well as news from all over the place.
The Yuan family of Jizhou suddenly moved and took some powerful soldiers and horses as their own, and some local officials played the imperial court, but it was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no reply.
In the west, many Qiang tribes have begun to attack Liangzhou, and Luantang Mountain, which had just defeated the Yellow Turban Thieves, could not cope with it, and borrowed 20,000 soldiers and horses from the Liangzhou base camp to support Jincheng, but the surrounding passes could obviously only be put forward again and again.
