Chapter 166 Request
Su Ping's eyes trembled slightly, he had been by the emperor's side since he was a child, and he had never thought about this.
On weekdays, when the court is in court, there is always a peaceful scene in the court. In recent years, the emperor's body has deteriorated year by year, so he handed over political affairs to the prince early on.
Su Ping knew that there were many homeless people on the border, and he also knew that there were many soldiers in other armies complaining.
But the prince has always said that the displaced people on the border are because the years have been bad in the past few years, and there are always disasters. He has allocated a large amount of relief, and the displaced people are grateful to Dade, only those mobs who do not know how to be grateful are slandering the court everywhere, and he always sends troops to suppress it.
There are also soldiers in the army, that is, the Imperial Forest Army in the palace, and there are always sergeants under Su Ping who complain. So he always disagreed, thinking that they were just greedy and moaning.
As if he had been living in a dream, and the truth was suddenly revealed at this moment, Su Ping's first reaction was naturally to escape and disbelief: "This is impossible...... You can't say anything! Did the night rain and wind buy you out?! I want you to speak for him and his army like this! Could it be that he, a rebellious man, has become a righteous person?! ”
The sword in his hand was unsheathed and pointed straight at Xie Siyun, who was standing there.
Xie Siyun didn't stand in place in the same place as if he was half afraid, and just looked at Su Ping directly: "If he buys us off, why should I take my pregnant wife and sister, as well as my elderly grandmother, to Kyoto from Nanzhou City thousands of miles away?" You can not believe me, or you can kill me here, kill my whole family. Just like the soldiers did in other cities. Do you know what's going on inside this castle of Kyoto's barrier in front of you? ”
Su Ping's hand trembled slightly, and Xie Siyun continued to make persistent efforts: "You also know that the army of Night Rain Wind has not yet crossed the Qishui River. But the city has become purgatory! The soldiers burned, killed, plundered, and did not have any intention of fighting, but thought about how to loot the city as much as possible before it was broken. Do you know how many taels of silver we gave to the soldiers defending the city in order to get out of the city? ”
Xie Siyun stretched out a slap: "Five thousand taels of silver tickets, plus a bag of silver ingots and a bag of gold ingots." With so little money, I bought a chance to go out of the city. What do you think the soldiers of the night rain wind will do when they come here? Will you be like you, desperate for your life, to defend this city? ”
Speaking of this, Xie Siyun's tone was already full of ridicule of the officers and soldiers defending the city.
Su Ping felt that all the things he knew had been subverted by Xie Siyun.
The long sword in his hand was a little closer to Xie Siyunfu, but the tip of the sword trembled slightly like his heart.
Xie Siyun sighed lightly, fearless of his long sword: "General Su, you can choose not to believe me. Because when you take your soldiers on your way to the Qishui River, you will see more tragic situations than what I have said. ”
He shook his head lightly and smiled slightly bitterly: "I'm talking to you so much, not to say that I support the matter of Night Rain Wind. I was just...... I want my family to return to Kyoto safely. I want my sister and wife to have a healthy baby in a safe environment. ”
His eyes were sincere, which made Chu Yue feel a bad feeling in his heart.
Su Ping also stared at Xie Siyun's eyes in a daze for a long time, and then finally withdrew his long sword into the scabbard with a slight wave of his hand.
He waved his hand to signal the soldiers behind him to dismount and rectify, and then he turned over and said to Xie Siyun coldly: "Let's go, I'll send you into Kyoto." ”
Wait a minute...... So this thing...... Is it done?!
Chu Yue's heart shook fiercely, and there was an incredible feeling: Xie Siyun was able to persuade Su Ping to move?!
Even Xie Siyun felt that it was not so simple to explain Su Ping, right? He originally thought that even if he lost his life, he would protect the safety of the first moon!
Obviously, Su Ping, who was on horseback, also saw their surprise, and explained with a light cough: "I will personally send you back to your mansion in Kyoto, and then send someone to guard it." If what you're saying is true, then I probably won't be able to come back. When the time comes, these people who are guarding your mansion will ask you to say good things in front of the night rain and wind, and do not let them become prisoners of war like me, so that you will repay me for bringing you into the capital today. ”
After hesitating, he continued to speak more and more coldly: "But if the outside is not as you say, when I return with glory, all of you in the Xie family now, don't even think about escaping, understand?" ”
Chu Yue didn't see that this General Su was still affectionate and righteous!
I just saw him sitting on the horse, looking back at the vast Kyoto, and there was a little confusion in his eyes: "What's more, if what you said is true, I must also go back to meet Your Majesty." Over the years, no matter whether he is a good emperor or a good father, but he has given me the glory I have now, and I can't betray anyone I betray! ”
It's still a sentient and righteous one!
Even though he was a princeling, Chu Yue began to appreciate this general Su Pingsu a little.
And Xie Siyun also turned over and got into the carriage together, but the vigilance and worry in his eyes did not decrease: "Since this is the case, thank you General Su!" ”
Returning to the carriage again, Chu Yue felt Xie Jiangqi take her hand.
Her palms were a little cold, and she could feel it, she should have been frightened just now.
Chu Yue also breathed a sigh of relief, and then gently hugged Xie Jiangqi and Yao Qingyan, who was contemplative on the side, into her arms: "Let's take a step." I know the road ahead will be difficult, but as long as we support each other, we can always get through this! ”
"Eun!"
Xie Jiangqi stretched out his other hand and shook Yao Qingyan's hand: "Qingyan, I believe in Zeng Haiqi." He's going to be fine, you have to believe it! ”
Sometimes, believing is a kind of strength, but also a kind of hope.
With this belief, they were escorted all the way to the gate of Kyoto by Su Ping.
After all, the guards at the gates of Kyoto looked different from other castles: they were still solemn and serious.
Even if Su Ping brought people into the door, they had to check them one by one, turned the two carriages upside down, and only after making sure that there was no danger did they let them enter the city at this kind of pass.
Although the war outside was almost on the doorstep, the people in the capital were in the same situation as the people in the city outside: all the shops were still open, and everyone's life seemed to have changed unchanged. Most of the people in Beijing are very proud to look down on people from other places, so even if someone enters the city gate at this moment, their faces are indifferent.
The courtyard that Xie Siyun and Chu Yue bought was not far from the imperial city, but because it was close to Fang City, there were not many dignitaries and nobles, but there were more businessmen living in it.
On the contrary, the closer they got to this down-to-earth place, the more different the atmosphere became: here, they finally saw the people of each mansion busy buying and reinforcing the doors and courtyard walls.
It seems that no matter what era it is, the sense of smell of businessmen who can succeed is always the keenest.
It was only here that Su Ping, who had been silent all the way, opened his mouth: "Did you see it?" These people in Kyoto, no matter what the world outside becomes, feel that Kyoto will never be broken. So when the accident really comes, I'm afraid that the tragic situation in Beijing will be more tragic than the other places, right? I am afraid that you have made the wrong choice to come to Kyoto at this time. ”
In this regard, Xie Siyun's opinion is different from Su Ping's: "This is Kyoto after all." Maybe there's nothing wrong with what those people think. The outside can be chaotic, not just because of the night rain and wind. But if the prince wants to mess up in Kyoto, I'm afraid it won't be so simple to do. So we chose this place, it's much better than being in Nanzhou City, where there are many forces, right? ”
Su Ping nodded, and after all, he didn't say anything more, but after escorting them all the way to the main gate, he stopped at the main gate: "I won't go in to drink tea." I have to go to the palace again, you ask for more blessings! Remember what you promised me, if you can't do it, I won't let you go! ”
He left two personal soldiers here to watch Xie Siyun and them, but seeing that the two of them were respectful to him, he knew that their relationship was very good. Just like the relationship between Xie An and Xie Siyun, Su Ping left them here for their sake.
But in the end, they were all big men, and Su Ping didn't tell them more, so he turned over and rode all the way to the palace.
Although they knew that Su Ping couldn't see it, Chu Yue and Xie Siyun still clasped their fists behind him, which could be regarded as an expression of respect for him.
Then, he turned around and was about to enter this new home!
Chu Yue saw their new home in Kyoto for the first time, and whether it was looking at the house or buying it, Xie Siyun dragged his friends here to do it.
As early as when I bought it, the two big characters of "Xie Fu" were hung on this gate as a plaque.
On the necks of the two stone lions at the gate, there are red lings that have faded after the wind and rain, which can be regarded as a favor.
In fact, when they came to Kyoto, they should have visited the friend who bought the house for them. However, seeing that the surrounding businessmen are busy, I am afraid that it will be a little troublesome to visit at this time.
What's more, they don't have much time, and they must take care of everything in this house as soon as possible, so they don't talk about so many rules, and go live first.
