Chapter 40: The Horse
Cen Xi was accustomed to the scene in front of him, and said with a smile: "Sir, he is not your opponent after all. ”
Yu Huai smiled innocently: "How is it not my opponent, he has broken my fan." He put Wuchenzi behind and asked, "How is your body recovering?" ”
"Seventy-seven-eighty-eight, you have to do it after all." Cen Xi's gaze swept over the dustless and torn fan.
As soon as Yu Huai saw his appearance, he knew what he was going to ask, and grabbed Bai Dao: "Don't fight for the position of the internal history of Su Zhi?" ”
Cen Xi's fingers tapped on the wheelchair, as if he was thinking about this question, and only then did he speak: "I am more concerned about your recent abnormality. ”
In the end, they grew up together, and the slightest change can't escape each other's eyes, and he doesn't know what Yu Huai is busy with in the past few days, and he can't bear to listen.
Yu Huai sat down on the stone bench in the garden, the stone table was prepared with wine, which was naturally convenient and dust-free, Yu Huai poured a glass casually, he had realized that he was unusual, and said: "You will understand later, if you don't care about the position of the envoy of the Su Dynasty, I will be happy to go." ”
Seeing that he was reluctant to speak, Cen Xi discussed the issue of governing Su's internal history, and he said: "You don't need to be careful, my father has his own decision." ”
Yu Huai nodded, drank another glass of wine and said, "Let's go in, it's windy." ”
Yun Shen pushed Cen Xi into the inner room, but Yu Huai didn't follow, cup after cup of wine, Cen Xi's voice was very soft, falling out like a feather, he knew that Yu Huai could hear: "You knew that your father had an idea, and you came to ask me, what are you thinking about and what are you hiding about?" ”
The fluttering voice was blown away by the strong wind, and Yu Huai's hand holding the wine glass paused, hiding what? Or if one less person knows, the girl will be safer.
He shook his glass, spilling out a drop of crystal clear elixir.
The slight ripple of fine wine, just like Kyoto, which has been quiet for a few days, will make waves again.
The terrain of the Northern Zhou Dynasty is low and flat, a few days ago he could vaguely look at Kyoto, the so-called Wangshan ran dead horses, not to mention that he could not take the official road, they were ordered to come to report the news, the road encountered many interceptions, originally a small team of people and horses who came together, now only he is left.
He could only follow the path all the way, and a few horses were killed along the way, and finally reached the gate of Kyoto.
The horse also showed signs of losing strength, his armor was slightly tattered, his face was covered with dust left by the journey, the horse stopped and prostrated on the ground, he turned over and dismounted, and finally could not resist rolling to the ground.
The soldiers defending the city saw that it was the armor of the Northern Zhou general, and hurriedly went to help, the man's lips had been cracked, the armor on his body was broken in several places, there were several scars on his face, and his right shoulder should have been injured by a sharp weapon, and his flesh and blood were blurred, and his clothes were glued together, and his right hand was still tightly protecting his chest.
He touched his chest with his left hand for a long time, touched out a sign, raised it tremblingly, and the soldiers guarding the city looked at it, and it turned out to be a token given by the emperor himself, and several people hurriedly knelt down, and they fell to the ground. The soldier spit out two words with difficulty: "Face saint." ”
With that, he passed out.
The guards guarding the city were panicked, and consciously divided into two groups, one group of people settled the guard, and the other group of people rushed to report, the chief of the guard was not long in office, and it was the first time he had encountered this incident, for fear that he would be killed by mistake.
He didn't dare to slack off, raised his feet and walked to the study, picked up a pen to repair a book, and called loudly: "Come on, come on." ”
The guards waiting outside the door rushed in, and he blew the words on the paper that had not yet dried, and when he felt that it was okay, he carefully folded it and stuffed it into a seal, and then he raised his head and pointed to a person casually: "Go and give this letter to Lord Taiwei." ”
The man did not dare to disobey, and knelt down on one knee to take the letter and said, "Yes." ”
Lord Taiwei is talking about Li Yi, the grandfather of Gongzi Yu, and the left and right phases, together with the Lord Yushi, ranked as the third duke, even though Emperor Zhou has dispersed a lot in order to balance the military power, many large and small affairs in the army are handled by him.
A fast horse rampaged through the streets in the dust, and the man on the horse held a letter in one hand and shouted in his mouth: "Urgent, urgent." ”
The people who came and went did not know what had happened, because they were afraid of the trampling of the horses' hooves, and they pushed and shoved to the sides, and some of them could not dodge and crawled out from under the horses' hooves.
At the corner of the main street, Qi Si is leisurely driving the carriage, they are on the way back to Ninghou Mansion, after bidding farewell to Qin Sangyu, they just happened to meet with this fast horse narrow road, seeing that they were about to collide, Qi Si's hand was as fast as lightning, holding the reins, the horse let out an exclamation, and quickly deviated to the right, the three people in the car only felt that the sky was spinning for a while, and the fast horse passed by the body, and the people on the horse looked back, did not stop, and rushed to the Taiwei Mansion.
The body finally stabilized, and Yao Ji's clothes, which were slightly messy from the collision, lifted the curtain and asked, "What happened?" ”
Kiri still tugged at the reins in his hand and replied, "A fast horse just rushed over. ”
Officials in Kyoto generally do not ride their horses in the castle for fear of disturbing the people and being impeached, but it is a different matter if there is an emergency.
Hardly thinking too much, ordinary people can also think of this stubble, Yao Ji asked, "Do you know who it is?" ”
Kiji recalled: "Look at the clothes should be the guards guarding the city. ”
Yao Ji lowered the curtain and said without hesitation: "Go back to the house immediately." ”
Xingyu and Yinghuan had just recovered from the previous bumps, and Qiji had already caught up in the car, Yaoji helped the two of them slightly, and the two of them turned red, and they all thought of who was the girl and who was the master?
Yao Ji didn't care much either, she was worried about the matter at the city gate, if she didn't guess wrong, the guards must have gone to the Taiwei Mansion just now, the eyeliners of various officials are all over Kyoto, and the news below will not be well informed if it is far away, which county should be the important matter of the city gate, if this matter is not good for Taiwei Li, wouldn't he be able to cover up the past as he wished?
And she couldn't run to the city gate recklessly, and was suspected of her intentions for no reason, but there was one person who could come forward, and that was Marquis Ning.
So, be sure to go back quickly, her fist hidden in her sleeve clenched, measuring how much time she had left.
The guards at the other end had already arrived at the gate of Taiwei Li's mansion, and the servants of the Li Mansion recognized this dress and knew that he was the guard guarding the city, so the servant stepped forward and said, "The one who came is the city gate guard?" ”
The guard jumped off his horse and said, "Exactly." He took out a letter from the collar on his chest: "I have an urgent matter to report to Lord Taiwei, this is a letter written by my lord." ”
He handed the letter to the servant, who glanced left and right, hid it in his cuff, and said, "Wait for me to report to your lordship." ”
"I'm tired."
Nodding to each other, the servant turned around and entered the mansion of Taiwei Li.
