Chapter Ninety-Six: The Bird of Faith
.. Allure City Divine Doctor, Reverse Heavenly Mother's Belly Black Daddy
The atmosphere was dull and cold, Zhang Zicheng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, he looked at Sinan fixedly, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "What does Miss Duan want to say, you might as well say it directly." ”
Sinan smiled slightly, the bright smile on the corner of his mouth was as pure and harmless as a sheep, but the eyes as clear as a small beast were clear and bright, and the light and shade flickered with indescribable depth.
"Since Master Zhang has said so, the folk girls will not play dumb riddles." Sinan paused, looked at him and continued: "Why don't we make a deal, I'll let you see the person you want to meet, Lord Zhang only needs to control the situation in Kyoto on our behalf when King Zhou rebels, how about it?" ”
Even though he sensed that Duan Ning might know the inside story, when he heard the other party's words, Zhang Zicheng's eyes widened in shock, he opened his mouth, and said in surprise: "How much do you know about King Zhou's rebellion?!" ”
He can be said to have been involved in this matter from beginning to end, and even many trivial matters are handled by him, Zhang Zicheng prides himself on being a cautious person, but he didn't expect to be exposed by a yellow-haired girl.
Si Nan smiled slightly, leaned back with his hands around his shoulders, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry about this matter, but the people and girls have told the secret, shouldn't Lord Zhang consider handing over some hole cards?" ”
Cards? Zhang Zicheng smiled self-deprecatingly, now what hole cards does he have, his only secret has just been speculated by Sinan, what difference does it make if he doesn't explain it.
He chuckled, raised his eyes to look at Sinan, and said in a bitter voice: "You just want me to open the wound myself." ”
Sinan raised his eyebrows, noncommittal.
"Rou'er is in her hands." Zhang Zicheng's voice sank, he paused before saying: "Rou'er is from Daqin, I met her at the border of Daqin and Daliang, when I went on a trip, I happened to encounter a downpour, I was separated from the team, the water and rice did not enter for two days, and I passed out on the edge of the cliff, she saved me." ”
"I still remember the joy she looked at me when I woke up, and there is no girl in the world who is as kind as her." Zhang Zicheng said while reminiscing, his tone was never softer: "She took care of me for nearly half a month, we lived the same life as ordinary people, but I felt that it was no luxury life can compare, we had feelings for each other, until the family found me, I expressed my love to her, fortunately she also fell in love with me, I was ecstatic at that time, I just wanted to marry her home, and I only loved her one in my life." ”
"But things didn't go so well, I went home to prepare the dowry, and when I was about to propose, the emperor suddenly issued a holy decree." Zhang Zicheng's expression was painful, his ten fingers crossed together, tangled and bitter: "At that time, the relationship between Daliang and the Qin State was tense, the war was about to break out, and it was impossible to marry a woman from the Qin State, I wanted to give her a home, but it was stopped because of the war between countries, what did we do wrong?!" ”
Zhang Zicheng said that the excitement completely lost the calm self-control and masquerade gentleness of the past, Sinan looked at him and did not speak.
As Zhang Zicheng said, they just love each other, what did they do wrong? Wars between nations are the business of the superiors, but in the end it is the common people who suffer from their disputes......
"So, you came all the way up the imperial examination, became a cabinet scholar in a short period of time, and participated in King Zhou's rebellion, just to marry her?"
Zhang Zicheng nodded, he hung his head, his face was in the light and shadow, so that people couldn't see his joy and anger, and he was quiet for a long time before he said in a muffled voice: "But now that Xiaorou is in Si Meng's hands, I can't do anything." ”
Yes, Si Meng's personality is the same as her nature, as cunning and treacherous as a fox, if she doesn't use Zhang Zicheng to the extreme, how can she let go easily?
Sinan looked at Zhang Zicheng and suddenly said, "If I can rescue Xiaorou, is Lord Zhang willing to agree to my request just now?" ”
Zhang Zicheng's eyebrows jumped, he slowly raised his head, and heard Si Nan say again: "Lord Zhang is doing nothing more than this under Si Meng, I know that my lord's ability is extraordinary, otherwise I would not have been promoted to the rank of cabinet scholar in just a few years, as long as you want, you will definitely be able to control the situation in Kyoto when Daliang is in turmoil." ”
"Why should I trust you?" Zhang Zicheng asked in a deep voice, although he admitted that Duan Ning had some means, but it was about Xiaorou, and he had to be cautious and cautious.
"Then why do you believe Simeng?" Sinan asked rhetorically, "Just because of her current identity, Princess Zhou?" She promised you to marry Xiaorou as a lover, but now you're in touch? I ask you, have you ever seen Xiaorou, even if it's her letters? ”
Zhang Zicheng was stunned, and he couldn't refute half a sentence when he was blocked by Si Nan's words, he didn't ask Si Meng to see Xiaorou, but she refused on the grounds that the relationship between Daliang and Qin was tense now. It's not that he didn't want to contact Xiao Rou by letter, but every time Si Meng would say that the letter was easy to be intercepted by detail, and once it was discovered, he and Xiao Rou would be in danger of their lives.
He could only wait, wait until the day Fu Wenlang ascended the throne, and wait for the relationship between Daliang and Qin to ease, before he could see his beloved girl.
Can ...... now
Zhang Zicheng suddenly remembered what she said when he saw Si Meng today, I am afraid that Fu Wenlang will ascend the throne, and he and Xiaorou will not be able to see each other......
He laughed at himself, shook his head and asked Sinan, "Is there a way for Miss Duan to get us in touch?" ”
It was a joke, but he heard the woman opposite say softly, "What if I can?" ”
What the?!
He raised his head suddenly, looked at Sinan in disbelief, and said in a daze, "What did you say...... Really?! ”
"Of course it's true." Sinan shrugged his shoulders disappreciatively, but his clear eyes were full of seriousness.
The long-term separation made Zhang Zicheng's thoughts almost overflow, and the feelings that had nowhere to be put aside were the source of torment for him in the middle of the night, and he took out the memories of the two over and over again to reminisce, but the lovely admiration and thoughts were still tormented like a beast tearing his chest.
The excitement in Zhang Zicheng's heart was not calm, and he listened to Sinan's words again, looked at him with a smile and said: "I can let Lord Zhang and Xiaorou contact him by letter, and on this condition, my lord must help us stabilize the situation in Kyoto when King Zhou rebels." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Zicheng's face sank, and he said coldly: "You let me defect? ”
Sinan raised his eyebrows: "Who has never taken a risk since ancient times?" It's a bet for you and me, and gambling is your life. ”
As he spoke, Sinan stretched out his palm, and the crisp bird call came from outside the window, and suddenly, a white light flashed, only to see a bird with a pure white body and a white light on its tail falling on Sinan's hand, its dark blue eyes looked at Sinan for a moment, and its mouth opened and closed, making a pleasant call.
"This bird is a letter bird, do you have something close to Xiaorou, or something that has been contaminated with her breath?" Sinan asked.
"Yes." Zhang Zicheng nodded, and then took out a neatly wrapped white silk handkerchief from his pocket, "This is what she gave me when we parted that day, and this silk handkerchief is her personal belonging." ”
Sinan took it, and while putting the silk handkerchief on the nose of the letter bird, he said: "The letter bird recognizes the person who receives the letter by smell, a bird can only send one person, and as long as the person is not dead, no matter whether she is at the end of the world, the letter can be delivered to the other party." ”
Of course, this little thing was found by Si Zihuai, as the king of birds, Xiao Baozi's bird-controlling ability is first-class, and Xinniao is one of his achievements.
Zhang Zicheng's eyes gradually brightened, he stretched out his hand to take the letter bird, and heard Sinan say: "I handed it over to Master Zhang, whether it is true or not, whether you can contact Xiaorou, you can judge for yourself." ”
She smiled slightly, drank the last sip of tea in the cup, and then got up: "I hope that Lord Zhang will not break his promise after contacting Xiaorou, I trust Lord Zhang, and I hope that Lord Zhang will not live up to my trust." ”
After speaking, she didn't wait for Zhang Zicheng to answer, and turned around and left directly.
In the room, Zhang Zicheng looked at the beautiful and delicate bird in his hand, and the flame in his heart began to move, and he really couldn't help it.
Is Duan Ning really credible? Can this letter bird really be used with confidence? Wouldn't it be a means to frame him?
Zhang Zicheng has always been a cautious and cautious person, but this time he couldn't hold back his inner desire and wanted to write a letter and pass it out.
Just try, it should be fine, right?
Thinking so, he did the same, he got up and walked to the window, took out the pocket pen and paper in his pocket, and wrote a few words - how is Arou now? I miss it very much, and I will return it quickly when I see the letter.
Zhang Zicheng rolled up the letter paper, put it into the small bucket at the foot of the letter bird, and let it fly.
Watching the white light fade into the night sky and fly away, the light in his eyes flickered.
I hope this letter can reach Xiaorou's hands.
……
It was late at night when Sinan came out of Sanbaozhai, she walked all the way to the ancient house, and the day after tomorrow was the time to set off, and there were still many things waiting for her to do.
"Did you really give him the letter bird?" The voice of the white tiger came from the space, and the voice was a little regretful: "It's a pity, such a good letter bird, others can't ask for it, but you send them love letters, and you ruin the heavens." ”
You must know that the letter bird is a rare spirit animal that is difficult to meet, and it can't help but rely on the smell to identify and receive the letter, and it can also avoid all enemy interceptions, so it can be said that as long as the letter is sent, there is no letter that the other party can't receive.
Many big countries have tried their best to get such a letter bird to pass on secrets, but Sinan, a loser, is a good loser, not to mention sending love letters, and he didn't even get a quasi-letter.
Sinan smiled slightly, but she could see it, she said lightly: "What's the matter, Zhang Zicheng's ability is far from this, as long as he is willing to help us, the prince can suppress King Zhou's army in the south without reservation, we go back to Kyoto, and we can still take down the Zhuang family and the Si family in one fell swoop, isn't it?" ”
And Sinan knows that the only person who can hold Zhang Zicheng now is Xiaorou, she has to do this, and there is no other choice.
Baihu snorted coldly, and said in a cool voice: "Are you so sure that people will help you?" In case he takes the letter bird and sends a love letter, but in the end he still helps Si Meng, and you won't even have a place to cry! ”
Reading is exciting, reading is wonderful!
