Chapter 37 (2) Leaving Yecheng 2
Mu Yao touched her hat and said, "Okay, I'll go first." β
After speaking, she jumped out of the tailor's shop, and Yuwen Shenju asked the shopkeeper, "How much?" β
"Five taels of silver."
Five taels of silver should be about two hundred grams.
Without saying a word, Yuwen Shenju took out a bag of silver and gave it to the shopkeeper and said, "Don't look for it." And he turned and left.
The shopkeeper said with a hippie smile: "Thank you, welcome to come next time." β
Yuwen Shenju walked to the carriage, lifted the door curtain and said, "Xiao Ning, sit down, we are leaving." β
Mu Yao said in a somewhat reluctant tone: "Let's go." β
After speaking, Yuwen Shenju put on his hat, pulled the reins, shouted "drive" the horse, and ran quickly.
Just after walking a few steps, Yuwen Shenju saw King Lanling wearing a white coat standing in front of the city gate to check the vehicles going out, he stopped and said, "This is bad." β
Mu Yao lifted the door curtain and said, "What's wrong?" β
"Gao Changgong personally inspected at the city gate, probably because of you, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave."
The naΓ―ve Mu Yao said: "But we are already dressed in disguise!" β
"With Gao Changgong's familiarity with you and me, disguise is nothing at all."
Mu Yao said, "Why don't we leave tomorrow!" β
"No, the more you stay here for a day, the more dangerous it becomes."
Just when the two of them were helpless, a palace man ran to Gao Changgong and said, "Your Highness, the Emperor Taishang called you into the palace and said that he had something to tell you." β
"Okay, I'll go right away." After speaking, Gao Changgong looked at the crowd and left.
But he hadn't gone far before Yuwen Shenju drove the carriage to the gate of the city, and the soldiers guarding the city lifted the curtain and saw that there was only a woman with a gauze hat inside, and without much inspection, he said, "Let go." β
Gao Changgong was not far away, he stopped when he heard this "let go", and involuntarily turned to look at the city gate, and found that only one carriage had passed, and he thought to himself: "Is that Mu Yao who passed just now?" β
As soon as he started walking towards the city gate, the palace people said, "Your Highness, if you don't leave again, the emperor will be in a hurry." β
Gao Changgong stopped again and turned around and said, "Let's go." β
After saying that, the two of them left.
And Mu Yao sat in the carriage and looked at the jade bracelet silently remembered the bits and pieces that she and Gao Changgong had experienced before, which made her image the most profound may be the time when she fell off the cliff, the corners of her eyes were slightly red when she remembered those things, but she held back her tears and did not fall.
Gao Changgong entered the palace and went straight to Gao Zhan's bedroom, and when he just arrived at the door of the dormitory, he found that Gao Zhan was holding the palace maid and drinking.
There were four palace maids, dressed very revealingly, sitting in Gao Zhan's arms with heavy makeup.
Seeing Gao Changgong, the eunuch knelt on the ground and saluted: "See His Royal Highness the King of Lanling." β
Gao Changgong said: "This king wants to see the emperor, you go and report it." β
"Yes." After speaking, the palace people went in to report.
Gao Zhan's behavior made people blush, and Gao Changgong had no choice but to turn his back to the eyes.
After a while, Gao Zhan asked the palace maid to leave first, and the eunuch came out and said, "King Lanling go in." β
After speaking, Gao Changgong went in.
Gao Zhan's dormitory is very messy, it can be said to be erosive, in addition to the wine bottles, wine jugs, and wine glasses thrown on the ground, there are some women's clothes and quilts, which makes people want to feel sick to their stomachs.
Gao Changgong saw Gao Zhan, who was lying on the couch drinking, and quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Changgong knocks to see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." β
Hearing Gao Changgong's voice, Gao Zhan, who was lying on the couch and drinking, immediately got up and sat up.
He wore a golden-yellow silk satin coat, which looked slippery, the kind that only emperors could wear.
Gao Zhan said: "It's Changgong! Get up quickly, come quickly, give me a seat. β
The palace maid took a sandalwood chair and put it behind Gao Changgong and said, "King Lanling, please take a seat." β
"I don't dare." Gao Changgong didn't sit down.
"If I tell you to sit, you will sit."
Gao Changgong said "Thank you, Your Majesty" and sat down.
Gao Zhan said: "Chang Gong! You see that I have been in the Zen position for almost a year, and I haven't asked much about the affairs of the court, and I heard that the Turks have frequently harassed my border these days, do you know? β
"The minister has also heard that their primary goal is Kim Yong City, and we have besieged it several times without getting the slightest bargain, but we have been passive in several battles."
The Zhou army was not the idea of attacking Luoyang at one time, and the Battle of Bishan had happened several times.
Gao Zhan sighed and said, "Who let us not have an advantage in terms of troops!" β
He added, "I want to send you to recruit troops in Kim Yong City, you have a big reputation in Kim Yong Yong, and if you go to recruit soldiers in person, those ordinary people will definitely rush to sign up." β
Gao Zhan was also a little panicked when he saw Gao Wei's incompetence, because the Zhou, Turkic, and Qiang joined forces, and the Northern Qi could basically be stuffed, and now those soldiers are in the way, but since Gao Huan's death, no people are willing to join the army at all, and there are fewer and fewer soldiers, Gao Zhan wants to pave the way for his son.
Gao Changgong arched his hand and said, "The minister's decree." β
Gao Changgong was just about to leave, but Gao Zhan suddenly said, "Oh yes! Go to Kim Yong Kim to recruit soldiers, remember to bring Mu Yao's girl, she is a little famous on Kim Yong Kim's side, and it is more convenient to have her. β
Gao Changgong heard that Mu Yao was a little sad on his face, he thought to himself that Mu Yao had already gone to find the freedom she wanted, how could there be Mu Yao's figure, he echoed and said "yes" and retreated.
And Mu Yao and Yuwen Shenju left Yecheng, and walked for two days, first from Yecheng to Jinyang, from Jinyang through Fenshui is the border of Qi and Zhou, Dongyongzhou, and through Dongyong is the territory of Zhou, the two of them finally landed their hearts hanging all the way.
When it was noon when Dongyongzhou arrived in Huazhou, the two of them were very tired, so they stopped first, Yuwen Shenju lifted the curtain and found Mu Yao leaning on the side of the carriage asleep, he gently shook Mu Yao and said, "Xiao Ning, get up, let's go eat something, right?" β
Mu Yao slept soundly, and was woken up by Yuwen Shenju, she asked dimly, "Have you arrived?" β
"This is Huazhou City, it's not far away, let's go have something to eat, shall we?"
Mu Yao nodded and said, "Hmm." He got up and got ready to get out of the car.
Yuwen Shenju got out of the car and put the stool away, and gave it to Mu Yao, who grabbed Yuwen Shenju's hand and got out of the car.
After getting off the car, she found that Huazhou City is very beautiful, very prosperous, Huazhou is located in the northwest, and the northeast and Henan she have seen are different, completely different, although she is still a little unaccustomed to the northwest, but under the governance of Yuwen Yong and Yuwen Hu, it is much better than some cities in Northern Qi.
Mu Yao looked at the people who came and went, and felt very good inexplicably, so she didn't leave, Yuwen Shenju pulled her sleeve and said, "Xiao Ning, let's go." β
"Oh! Walk. With that, they went straight to the restaurant.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Yuwen Shenju asked Mu Yao: "Xiao Ning, what do you want to eat?" β
Mu Yao frowned in confusion and said, "What to eat?" I don't know! β
She hadn't been to Da Zhou for too long, and she didn't know what was delicious there, so Yuwen Shenju smiled and shouted: "Xiao Er, come two bowls of mutton soup (Nai mutton steamed bun soup), and two more cakes." β
The shopkeeper also shouted, "Okay." β
Mu Yao quietly approached Yuwen Shen's ear and said, "Two bowls, is it enough?" β
She thought it was just two small bowls of soup. Soup is soup!
Yuwen Shenju said: "Don't worry. β
