248. The seven-person troupe sneaks into the city
"The lord, the concubine is in the Runan Palace, everything is fine, and she will take care of the second lady, please rest assured." The silk cloth in the bamboo pipe, so written, also made me feel a little better.
But I didn't expect Shao Yun to be in Runan.
Zhao Pu said: "Lord, what is the plan now?" ”
"Since there is a peach blossom festival, let's make good use of it." I slapped on the military case, "Liu Bowen defeated me and kidnapped my beloved wife, according to common sense, I will either raise an army to attack him, or return to Xiaopei or Shouchun, there are only two possibilities, and on the official road to Runan, there will inevitably be an ambush." ”
"And an ambush? This Liu Ji is like a god, how can he use it twice in a row on the same road? Zhao Pu said.
I looked at Zhao Pu: "If it were you, would you have set up an ambush in the same place twice?" ”
"Definitely not!"
"That's right, most people will definitely think that Liu Bowen is clever and will not set up an ambush in the same place twice, so he went the opposite way, seized this thinking inertia, and took the opportunity to yin us again, so wouldn't we be in the trap again?" I said.
"Lord, then what are you going to ......?"
"Tonight will be revealed." I said.
……
Early the next morning, I took Zhao Pu, Sun Shangxiang, Yuan Yiyi, Feng Shuang, Qin Qiong, Chang Yuchun, and Jin Wushu to form a troupe and smoothly entered the scope of Runan City.
Chang Yuchun drove the carriage, and Lao Jin and Lao Qin pretended to be buddies, I was the boss, the third daughter was the maid of the performance, and Zhao Pu was the housekeeper, and we were a group of seven people, but we also ended up clean.
Chang Yuchun muttered: "Lord, these guys are all on the carriage turf, is it safe?" And there were seven of us, and this one went into the city...... It's too dangerous. ”
"What do you know, more people are more dangerous, and we are a group of seven people, there are men and women, we are not here to fight, but to save people, the lord added a thin plate to the chassis, who will see it." Qin Qiong began to talk about it.
At this moment, we entered the inner city, and a group of guards were checking on the people entering and leaving the city, when two guards came and immediately stopped me.
One of the guards said fiercely, "What is it, what is in the carriage?" ”
"It's a singing job." I said with a smile.
"Singing?!" The guard frowned and said, "Someone, check!" ”
Five people came, inspected all the inside and outside of the carriage, and said, "It's an extraordinary time now, what do you have to face you as a troupe?" ”
I laughed and immediately said, "Lao Jin, Lao Qin, let's play with a big knife!" ”
"Okay, shopkeeper, wait a minute!" Jin Wushu took down a large wooden knife from his horse and immediately danced in his hand, attracting continuous applause from the surrounding people.
Jin Wushu and Qin Qiong started to play against each other, they were all false flower shelves, and these flower shelves were also taught by Yuan Chonghuan, this Yuan Chonghuan had acquaintances in the city, so he couldn't come in, he was a street performer before he became the pavilion chief, so this time Yuan Yiyi also came to help us.
I saw Jin Wushu shaking a big knife, and after a burst of flying sand and stones, it was inseparable from Qin Qiong, you come and go, and people applauded.
"Official, melon seeds." I handed over a melon seed wrapped in oilcloth and said.
The guard watched the play, ate melon seeds, and kept laughing.
After a while, the two of them ended their confrontation, and I said to the sedan chair: "Yiyi, Xiangxiang, and Frost come and sing!" ”
"It's coming!" A delicate voice came out of the sedan chair.
At this time, Yiyi opened her mouth and began to sing, the three girls themselves were very good-looking, and after singing in unison, the men around them almost stared out their eyes, and the guard's eyes were even more happy.
A guard was about to go up and be light, but I stopped him: "Official, now we have to enter the city, there are many inconveniences, please ask the official to appreciate his face, you can take this brand ......"
I gave the guard a bamboo sign.
The guard was puzzled: "What are you doing with this brand?" ”
"The tent we built, as long as there is this brand, the three days are free of charge!" I beckoned around.
The surrounding people also cheered, and the guards looked at the sign happily and said: "Okay, just rush this brand, I will definitely go to appreciate the face, you enter the city, if someone is difficult for you, you will report my name, my name is Chang San, my second brother Chang Er is the personal guard next to Liu Bowen's military division, and the people on this road give me Chang San face!" ”
"Oh?! It turned out to be the third brother Chang, who has been admired for a long time! I said.
Chang San waved his hand: "Hurry up and get in, let's go in, it's a long queue...... By the way, the curfew for a few days, we will not be able to contact the curfew until the Peach Blossom Festival begins ten days later, and then carry out a three-day festival, you have to pay attention, just perform during the day, don't come out at night these days, Runan City has been tight recently, and the inspection is also tight. ”
"Thanks, Third Brother Chang, then let's go first!" I said.
After saying goodbye, we looked for an inn, but unexpectedly the inn was full, and the innkeeper said: "Everyone, it's really inconvenient, the curfew has been serious recently, and the war is frequent, our inn has been fully booked by those officials, and recently the officials from the north have come to our side......"
"Shopkeeper, we came from afar to participate in this Peach Blossom Festival, is there no room for this? You see, it doesn't matter if we are a few old men sleeping on the streets, but our sisters are weak, and we all rely on their voices to eat, and if we really catch any kind of cold, we will starve to death at that time, and beg the shopkeeper to do it......" I pretended to plead.
The shopkeeper looked at the three girls, shook his head and sighed: "If you don't give up, then my stable is empty, and no one has been allowed to raise horses recently, and the stable has a layer of clean weeds, and no horses have come in......"
"Okay, well, just the stable!" I stuffed a broken silver to the shopkeeper, "I'm tired of the shopkeeper to give us some hot wine and prepare some hot food, we are all from the north, and we will stop at every place along the way......"
"Oh yes, wait a minute!" The shopkeeper took the broken silver and immediately left.
Qin Qiong came over and said, "Lord, you are a daughter, how can you live in the stable at will, isn't it a joke when this is spread?!" ”
"When Han Gaozu was under Xiang Yu, didn't he also live in the stable, and those who did great things refused to endure even this humiliation, so what was the big deal?!" I said.
Zhao Pu stroked his beard and said: "Although the lord is twenty-six years old, the aura on his body is already different, Qin Qiong, Yuchun, you all learn a little." ”
"Yes, the military advisor ......" Qin Qiong looked very unwilling.
At this time, Sun Shangxiang came over, and she said, "Lord, I have laid out the straw mat for you, and they have also sent wine." ”
"Okay, let's eat together." I said, looked into the distance and said, "Wait a little while to make a barrier in the middle with straw mats, one for the girls, and one for us old men." ”
"My lord, now that I'm in Runan, can't I ...... Can't let me be with Frost...... Do you want to rest......" Jin Wushu looked very complaining, like a wronged little daughter-in-law.
I laughed, "Now is not the time." ”
I quietly glanced at Feng Shuang, and found that her eyes looking at Jin Wushu were ambiguous and hooked, and she almost wanted someone's life, that is, she was such a beauty, so she could make Yuan Shu take a fancy to it.
This golden vulture is also a blessed person.
"That, Yiyi, I look in the sky outside...... It's all stars, those stars are beautiful, blink and blink, why don't we go out and see the stars? Chang Yuchun took the lead in launching the offensive.
Yuan Yiyi sewed something with needles and threads, and she said: "How can there be stars outside, it just rained during the day, and the clouds cover the sky!" ”
Chang Yuchun was embarrassed, and I shouted: "Come on, come on, everyone should eat, drink, eat and drink, we will start acting early tomorrow morning." ”
I said, lifting a jug of wine.
In the stable, although it looks dirty, but because there are a few lamps, there is a stove, so the temperature is not low, there is a pot on the stove, there are a few pots of hot wine in it, and the people who drink it are also warm and comfortable.
