Chapter 19: Do You Know You're a Thorn in Your Side?

I never imagined that the inn at this end of the East Market was so popular, and the two of them searched for a long time and only found a small room in a medium-sized inn, and not far from this inn was the green building that had just been recruited by Ji Liren.

"Only one?" I'm very irritated with the song.

The shopkeeper looked at the two of them with some apologies and said: "The two sons are really sorry, today is the market ceremony, the towns of ten miles and eight towns are very lively, and the night market in the east market of our Handan is also famous, this is indeed no extra house." ”

Ji Liren took out a piece of silver across the hat, put it on the table, and said, "Then I want this one." He didn't worry about the people he saw today, and the two of them had been alone for the past few days, so he could only ensure her safety when they were together.

In the eyes of outsiders, it is not strange for two men to share a room. In order to save entanglement, some of the knights who came out to walk the rivers and lakes would form a group to spend the night at random.

Sui Ge glanced at Ji Liren expressionlessly, and then added to the shopkeeper: "The shopkeeper will bring an extra quilt and a thin quilt later, and ask Xiao Er to help me prepare a big bucket of hot water for me to bathe." With that, she put another ingot of silver on the table.

The shopkeeper accepted the money with a smile and said politely: "Of course, of course, I will send it to the guest officer's room later." After that, he called a little second to lead the two to the room, and Sui Ge gave the little two a little broken silver, Xiao Er left with a smile, and after a while, he sent the quilt and a large bucket of hot water that Sui Song requested. When the hot water is poured into the tub in the room, the water mist is behind the curtains.

After the little two left, Ji Licai took off his hat and said, "You don't need to give so much silver." ”

Sui Song raised his eyebrows, "Worried about money? I'm using my own money. ”

Ji Liren didn't want to misunderstand with the song, so he looked at her calmly and explained: "I don't feel sorry for money, I just don't understand your purpose for doing this." ”

If she just drank in Dongshi and gave Xiao Er some more silver because she wanted to set up news, then now she lives in this hotel just for ordinary accommodation, and she can't give more money. What is the purpose of her doing this, Ji Liren is very puzzled.

After checking the surrounding windows and the situation outside, Sui Ge sat down and snorted: "Money can make ghosts grind." It's called tipping in my hometown, and money can keep most people's mouths shut and get better service, and it doesn't hurt us to give more. General Ji's emotional intelligence needs to be improved. ”

Before, Feige sent a letter to Yin Dongsheng and asked him to tell Linfeng to come to Handan to meet the two of them, Linfeng's martial arts are also high, but it also takes time to come to Handan, they don't know how long they have to wait here, and it is not a bad thing to give the shopkeeper more sweetness.

Ji Liren didn't understand what the "emotional intelligence" that Sui Song said would be, but he also immediately understood what she said, and when he looked at her again, his eyes were full of appreciation.

Sui Ge took out the brocade box he had just found from the hidden pocket of his sleeve, and in the candlelight, this box was even more precious. I checked it with my hand, it was very heavy, and I was really glad that this ancient dress was loose enough to sew a lot of hidden pockets in the clothes.

"This dress can really hide a lot of things." Sui Song sighed, "It's just that it's very inconvenient to act." "The clothes of the ancients, whether they were women's or men's, were like skirts, and it was very inconvenient to fight.

The two sat around the wooden table in the center of the house, and Ji Liren's gaze also moved from the box to Sui Ge's face, "Aren't the clothes in your hometown like this?" ”

Ji Liren remembered that Chen Sang mentioned that Suige's hometown was in the Western Regions, and every time Suige mentioned "you people", Ji Liren automatically regarded "you" as people from the Central Plains.

While studying how to open the brocade box, Sui Ge replied nonchalantly: "I didn't wear a skirt before. Our men's and women's clothing is casual and close-fitting and easy to move around, just like the lingerie you wear. ”

Because of these words, Ji Liren imagined the appearance of Sui Ge wearing underwear, and his face was faintly flushed. He coughed softly and looked away.

Sui Ge felt on the box for a long time, but she didn't see the keyhole, let alone any groove that could be opened, and when she was about to hand it to Ji Liren for study, her index finger accidentally touched a beam on the side of the box, and the beam was concave.

Sui Ge looked at it seriously in the candlelight, and then he sent out that this small box actually had a mechanism. She carefully darkened the beam, and the box clicked open a small crack. Ji Liren cautiously protected Sui Ge, picked up the sword he carried with him, and gently opened the box with the blade, and found that nothing floated out or spilled, so they leaned over and looked at it carefully.

In the center of the box lay something wrapped in yellow silk, tightly wrapped. The song was opened layer by layer, and finally appeared in the candlelight was a large piece of green and crystal clear jasper, this jasper looked like the shape of a dragon, the shape was realistic, there was a square stone platform connected under the dragon, and the whole piece of jasper was flawless. Turning to the bottom of the stone platform, you can see that there are some words engraved on it, which are estimated to have been used as seals, and the words on the bottom are stained with red paint.

"This thing should be worth a lot of money." Sui Ge looked up at Ji Liren while studying, and was about to ask him if he knew what this was.

How do you know that Ji Liren's face was pale, and he looked surprised.

"You know what it is." To make a great general so shocked, this thing must be extraordinary. Sui Ge shook this jasper in front of Ji Liren, "General, don't sell Guanzi, tell me about the origin of this thing." ”

Ji Liren pursed his lips, looked at the jade in her hand, and replied solemnly: "This is the jade seal." ”

The jade seal is a symbol of the country and a certificate for the emperor to govern the world.

"Oh" to the song. She doesn't care about the government, to be honest, as long as there is no civil strife in the country, no war, as long as Nguyen Nguyen's life is well, she doesn't care about anything. She does not have the greatness of the world.

"What will happen to the emperor without the jade seal?" Suige is curious.

Ji Liren re-wrapped the jade seal in yellow silk and put it back in the brocade box, obviously calmed down, and replied slowly: "Without the jade seal, it means that the emperor has no symbol of power. But if it is spread outside, and this jade seal even falls into the hands of some people, it proves that the kingdom is about to start civil strife. ”

Sui Ge Dai frowned, she didn't like war.

She had been hired to help the rebels take power, and it was not the brave soldiers who died the most, but innocent civilians, especially children. After having Ruan Ruan, the child was a soft thorn in Sui Ge's heart, and she didn't want to see the faces of those sluggish children in the war anymore.

"What do we need to do." The look of the song is very serious.

Ji Liren looked at her as if stating one thing: "The emperor is old, but the country under his rule is still prosperous." "Although the current emperor is still cowardly and conservative in some aspects, Ji Liren admits that he is a good emperor." It has been less than a year since the election of the crown prince, and the opposition to the prince in the DPRK and China has been stupid. At that time, I found Yin Dongsheng for another reason, because I knew that he was the prince's person. ”

Can't deny the song. has been with Yin Dongsheng for half a year, although she does not pay attention to the government, but she knows that Yin Dongsheng is a smart person, no matter which side Yin Dongsheng is on, she is Yin Dongsheng's subordinate, and she must follow.

Sui Ge asked Ji Liren: "So you also support the prince?" ”

Yin Dongsheng looked back and sang: "We fought on the battlefield just for the prosperity of the country. ”

Sui Ge shook his head, "A brainless person like you will suffer." After a pause, she said with appreciation: "But I agree with you, you can do whatever you want, as long as you need me, you can just open your mouth." ”

Sui Ge stood up and stretched, she was really tired from running around these days. The injuries on her body are almost all healed, and the internal injuries are also well adjusted, and when they are fully recovered, their progress can be accelerated.

Sui Ge found his change of clothes from the softness, pointed to the quilt brought by Xiao Er, and said to Ji Liren: "I will sleep in the bed tonight, and you can use the quilt to sleep on the ground." "She's also slept on the floor, and it's not comfortable, and it's okay to have a quilt. After speaking, Sui Ge walked to the side room of the bath tub blocked by the curtain, and his voice gradually faded away: "I only asked the shopkeeper for a bucket of water, if you want to bathe, ask Xiao Er for it yourself." ”

Ji Liren looked at the side room, and there was a vague shadow reflected on the curtain, only to see her put her long hair down and begin to take off her outer robe. Ji Liren's ears were a little red, turned his head sideways, and said, "I'll go outside the house, and you will call me again if you have something." ”

I heard the sound of Sui Song going into the water, and she said faintly: "No, it's okay." After a pause, she added, "I just forgot to analyze the current situation with you. General Ji, do you know that you are very dangerous now? ”

Ji Liren stopped and wanted to turn back, but remembered that she had stubbornly turned her gaze to the potted plant on the side after bathing. He said calmly, "You say, I listen." ”

He likes to listen to the analysis of the song.

"The king of Duanyang advocates peace, and his political views conflict with you, so you suspect that he is the one who connects with Chen Da; Chen Da betrayed your army and caused you to lose grain, grass and troops, this is to frame the northern army, and you can be ordered for your mistakes before the emperor; The note in Chen Da's stomach reveals the number of your troops and the order to hunt you down; King Yu and the mysterious man searched for the box that Chen Da carried, and the box contained a jade seal; The battle for dynastic power is on the line, and you are a thorn in the side of those regimes. The sound of the song is a little ethereal in the sound of the water. "General Ji, do you know why you are a thorn in your side."

Ji Liren had already walked to the window, the expression on his face was very complicated, but he was not afraid. His calm voice was like a stone Buddha, sonorous and powerful, "I know, because I hold the tiger talisman in my hand." He said it lightly, but the weight of the word was very heavy.

The tiger talisman he held in his hand was enough to mobilize all the soldiers guarding the frontier, not only the northern army he led, but also the army led by the old general, although it was weakened and divided by the emperor later, but as long as Ji Liren gave an order, those former generals were all disobedient. Before the old general went, Ji Liren had already put on armor and went into battle, and he didn't know how many hard battles he had fought over the years, and this was the reason why many powerful people didn't dare to act rashly even if they didn't accept Ji Liren.

Ji Liren already represents the military power of the dynasty.

Whoever can entrap Ji Liren will have the greatest military power.
