Chapter 177: The Palace

Guan Kuo still held without a trace, straddling Qin Kill, away from the golden plaque of the White Mansion, and heading towards Wang Du's mansion far away.

Although the palace is not big, but as the general of Zhenwu in the Northern Tang Dynasty, it can be regarded as a bit magnificent, Lin Hai and many of their young handsome men have a place to go in Chang'an, but he doesn't, so he can only go to the palace.

Tonight, Wang Dulinhai and they will have a banquet to catch the wind and wash the dust, but because of his special reasons, they did not participate.

He felt as if a long time had passed with the woman, but when he looked up at the sky, the night was not deep, and it was all his own delusion, so he smiled.

The cold wind hit him, sobering him up, and everything around him seemed clearer and clearer.

He walked along the long street, he felt how similar the two days he had left Chang'an and returned to Chang'an, he had been walking and walking in the flow of people, and in the end he didn't know where he would go to his fate.

After three incense sticks, he led him to a sparsely populated alley.

Compared with other mansions in Chang'an, the palace is indeed very deserted and remote, this alley, it is estimated that in addition to the people in the palace, no other people will come for no reason, but after experiencing so much, he likes such a quiet taste very much.

The door was closed, and he hesitated for a moment before knocking.

Then came the long wait.

It took a long time to knock on the door until it was opened, and then a gray-haired old man poked out from behind the door and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"I'm looking for General Wang, tonight, I'll ......" Guan Kuo scratched his head, and didn't know what to say for a while.

The old man's eyes glanced at the trace he was holding in his hand, and then looked at Qin Kill on his waist, nodded to himself, opened the Zhu Door wide, and said, "You come in, I'll take the horse away." ”

Guan Kuo looked back at Wuji, smiled, and said, "I'll take it." ”

He knew that, except for hearing His Majesty's name in the palace, this fierce horse (bad horse) listened to the words, and other times, it was really a dangerous person.

Although he did not know why he insisted on leading the horse himself, the old man did not ask much and led him to the stable.

Along the way, Guan Kuo looked in all directions, and found that the palace was not big as he had guessed, not to mention that compared to the former Guan Mansion, it was many other mansions, all of which were small.

However, even though the area is not large, the house still seems deserted, and there are not many servants and maids.

Guan Kuo was a little emotional, he had been in Northern Xinjiang for so long, and he knew very well how Wang Du and other generals were born and died and were loyal to the country, although he did not deny that there were many good officials in Chang'an who were as conscientious as Su Yan, however, there were also many guys such as Bai Zhang Ji Xiaoguang who only knew how to form a party and run a private business, on the contrary, Wang Du's mansion looked so shabby, which made people sigh.

Speaking of Bai Fu and Bai Zhang, he suddenly remembered that Bai Congyun, the general of Dingyuan, and Bai Zhang were said to have a very weak relationship, although because of the passage of several generations, that relationship was no longer worth mentioning.

This is, of course, just off topic.

Walking with the old man, Guan Kuo asked, "Do you know me?" ”

The old man shook his head, smiled again, and said, "Such a good horse, such a good knife, it is very conspicuous. ”

Guan Kuo understood that Wang Du must have ordered it in advance.

"Hasn't General Wang come back yet?"

"It's rare for him and those brothers in Chang'an to see each other once, so they will naturally stay longer."

Guan Kuo was a little surprised that the old man actually called Wang Du "him" instead of "general", in his opinion, no matter what, Wang Du is a respectable person, as a person from the palace, shouldn't he be more eager to respect Wang Du?

He glanced at the old man's face and found that it was unremarkable, but there seemed to be a flash of lightning in his mind, but he couldn't catch it.

He frowned, trying to think, but couldn't figure it out.

Unlike most of the mansions just now, Wang Du's mansion is lit up only where people are there, and most of the time, he has to rely on lanterns like the old man's hand.

Although the former Guan Fu was not like this, Guan Kuo liked it a lot.

Inside the hall, it was already dark, but some of the side rooms everywhere were bright.

Because of the cold weather, the doors of the brightly lit rooms along the way have been closed, so it looks even more deserted.

Until passing by such a side room, the door "creaked" open, and a tiger-headed girl poked out, looked at Guan Kuo, and then shouted happily to the old man: "Grandfather! ”

At this moment, Guan Kuo was stunned for a moment.

That girl looks so similar to Wang Du.

The old man leaned down, stroked the girl's head a little dotingly, said a few words softly, and the girl smiled sweetly and went back.

"Uh...... This is ...... The General's Miss? ”

After hesitating for a moment, Guan Kuo still asked inexplicably with some meaning in his heart.

"That's right!" The old man said with a smile, it was obvious that he loved this girl very much.

"So...... Are you ...... The general's father? ”

When such a sentence was spoken, Guan Kuo even changed his title.

That one was Wang Du's daughter, and then she called the old man "grandfather", so it was obvious that it was Wang Du's father who opened the door for him like a descendant of the palace and was ready to lead the horse for him!

The old man did not answer explicitly, but laughed very happily, as if the whole person relaxed when he heard this sentence, and it could be seen that he was especially proud to have such a son as Wang Du.

Guan Kuo couldn't help but be a little in awe.

He has always been considered by him to be the strictest and least able to bully the mansion, but now that he has seen the palace, he finds that the "subordinate" who opened the door to the palace is actually Wang Du's father, which has to make him feel great, especially among the top people in this world.

Next, he was subconsciously a little silent, and the old man didn't say much, he didn't know if the old man felt the feeling he had for the palace

Until the old man stopped in a side room and said to him, "Young man, you can sleep here tonight, everything has been cleaned up, although it is relatively simple inside, and it is a little shabby." ”

"In the eyes of us military people, it is already rare to be able to sleep in a room." Guan Kuo said with a smile.

Although he didn't even serve as a soldier for a year, he now likes to use this status to show off.

He entered the chamber and spoke a few last words to the old man, and then the old man left.

Light the fire and look around, it's really simple, there are not many things, but he thinks it's refreshing, he doesn't care.

"Baiyunli, look, this is called someone else's mansion, someone else's father, is it much stronger than your family?" He smiled and muttered to himself, though he knew that the other person wouldn't hear what he said.

He sat down against the edge of the bed and touched his body, only then did he realize that the things he was carrying were really only some military salaries and a knife, and as for the other things that were carried without a trace on the way to Chang'an, they had been taken away by Wang Du and others as military items.

He closed his eyes like this, and began to silently run the gas operation method obtained from the bamboo slip and taught by Qiu Jingshan.

Now, even compared to the time when he killed Su Yin, his strength has become much stronger, he doesn't know what kind of exact state he is in now, at least, people like Bai, Ruan, and Hua, ten or eight of them shot at the same time, and they couldn't kill him at all.

This is also the reason why he is facing such a fast horse today, and he is unscathed.

He is in the army, occasionally on duty, for sleep, is not particularly dependent, now just returned to Chang'an, he can not sleep peacefully immediately, at this time, running the luck method is the best behavior.

Time passed slowly, his pores dilated, gas entered from his body, and gushed out, repeating the process of the hunchbacked old Jin saying that he was free to retract and release, and the whole person felt much more comfortable.

Until at some point, he suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.

Outside the door, through the faint light, a figure could be seen standing, straddling a knife.
