"They can go to Xiao Zheng's side, and they can also come to the third princess's side, I'll wait." Liu Zhuxue smiled and turned to open the door and came out, and saw the little gourd squatting in the corner of the wall, randomly looking for a firewood stick and drawing circles on the ground. "It's not easy for me to come over once, don't you mind."
Liu Zhuxue is filial piety, and she wears extremely plain clothes on weekdays, and the maid's dress is a color of water red, which makes her face like a hibiscus, and her eyebrows and eyes are picturesque. Xiao Hulu looked at a smiling beautiful face, no temper was gone, and almost stammered: "It's okay, you have to be careful yourself." ”
"Yes, everyone is safe." Liu Zhuxue fluttered away, his steps were light, the corner of his skirt flashed at the corner of the stairs, and the person had left.
"Looks like you don't have to worry about her, she's quite capable." Xiao Hulu rarely spoke to Dai Guozi in a good voice, "I used to think it was a delicate girl." ”
"It's pretty delicate to look at." Dai Guozi was still in a daze in the direction where Liu Zhuxue left, "She has a good master, which is a blessing in misfortune." ”
"You don't like what you say, isn't it when there was a drastic change in her family, just when you appeared. I heard Little Phoenix say that her father was Liu Shaoyin, who was brutally killed in the backyard of his home, and his brother didn't care about it. I don't understand, she didn't do anything wrong, why did someone always refuse to let her go? Xiao Hulu only heard three points of truth, after all, he was an outsider, and Xiao Phoenix didn't say anything in detail.
Dai Guozi coughed twice and said: "Before her father died tragically, he ordered her a family affair that she shouldn't have, and she suffered so much later, all because of this." ”
That is, she has already promised others, or the words of her parents! Then you ......," the little gourd was really surprised, "what do you think, she is a married man." ”
Dai Guozi glanced at him unhappily: "I thought you and Little Phoenix were getting close, and they were in a similar mood." Now it seems that you are more than a little and a half worse than her. How about her engagement, what she didn't want in her heart, why couldn't she refuse? Of course, you may not know that the other party is dead, so this family business can't be done. ”
The little gourd was looked at by him with contempt, and he couldn't get angry, Dai Guozi could have been kind to him, and he couldn't find fault with what he said.
"Okay, there were too many accidents in the middle, and it was lucky to be able to get to this point. We all cheered up and sent the third princess to Da Liao intact, and after making peace, no one could embarrass Xiaozhu. Dai Guozi said seriously, "Since you came with you, you should also be willing to contribute, I will thank you for her first." ”
"You're all kind." Xiao Hulu finally held back this sentence, "She is protecting me in front of Bai Die, I remember this kindness, and I will definitely do my best." ”
On the other side of the station, Gu Changming and Little Phoenix tiptoed onto the roof. It had only rained the day before, and the tiles were muddy and slippery. If it weren't for the first-class skills of the two of them, I am afraid that they would have fallen down and been discovered earlier.
Gu Changming made a downward gesture. The two best upper rooms in the post station, one for the third princess and the other for Xiao Zheng. On the contrary, Pei Yonglun was very arrogant, he didn't care about the details, he picked a random one, and fell asleep when he was full of food and drink.
There were three people in Xiao Zheng's room, and he was flipping through the letters at the table, and the two attendants were standing left and right. The little phoenix hangs upside down from the golden bell, and half of its face appears at the top of the window. The attendant stood with his back to the window, unable to see anything.
There were at least five or six letterheads piled up on the table, and Gu Changming also hung upside down, trying to see the inscription on the envelope. Xiao Zheng intentionally or unintentionally blocked most of his fingers, which was really unreal.
Even so, Gu Changming could distinguish these letters, except for one, the others were written in the Khitan script of the Liao State. Although the Khitan script evolved from Chinese characters, it is still very different when you look closely, the pictogram is larger, farther away, and more like a small picture.
The little phoenix freed up one hand, and a thin chain flew out of its sleeve, which fit precisely into the corner of the window, and the other end was thrown by her. Gu Changming took it in his hand, looked at her gesture again, and put the thing into the cochlea.
Strange to say, obviously the window was closed, Xiao Zheng's voice was deliberately lowered, but at this moment, it was completely clear to the ear.
"The emperor is bound to make peace this time, saying that even the auspicious day of the zodiac has been chosen." Xiao Zheng put the letter in his hand on the table and sneered, "It's all counted, and we have six or seven days to go back." The good days mentioned in the letter will be in six days. Except for the preparations after the arrival of Princess Da Song, this is what keeps us awake at night, day and night. ”
"My lord, this is another urgent message from the Queen Mother." One of the attendants carefully placed the letter in the corner of the table.
"I don't want to see it." Xiao Zheng rubbed his eyebrows vigorously, "The Queen Mother and the Emperor have been at odds for several years, since the Emperor especially wants to do it, the Queen Mother must choose not to agree." ”
"So what are we going to do?" In the eyes of his entourage, Xiao Zheng is not only the nephew of the Queen Mother's mother, but also the privy envoy of the emperor. After the task of welcoming relatives, the two sides must not please each other, and whether they succeed or fail in the end, they must seriously offend the other party.
The emperor or the queen mother, who is offended again!
"The adults should have shirked this matter because they were ill, and they couldn't make a thankless rush to this road." The other person saw Xiao Zheng's calm face, as if he was also confident about such an embarrassing situation, "My lord, have you figured out what to do?" ”
"This is also the reason why I left others behind and only brought my cronies to Kaifeng Mansion first. Among those people are the emperor's people, and there are also the queen mother's eyeliner. I can't trust anyone other than the people I've cultivated myself. Xiao Zheng approached the letters he had read one by one and burned them on the lamp, and the only one left on the table was the one written in Chinese characters.
What Gu Changming wants to know most is Xiao Zheng's own attitude, and now it sounds like Xiao Zheng is quite in favor of peace between the two countries. He saw Xiao Zheng get up from the chair and walk around the corner of the room three times like a trapped beast, clenching the letter tightly in his hand, his knuckles turned white with force, and the envelope was crumpled together.
"What people!" Xiao Zheng suddenly scolded with angry eyes.
The little phoenix heard it clearly, thinking that this person was deaf and clear, and had discovered their whereabouts, and was about to turn over with his instep forcefully, but saw Gu Changming calmly maintaining Fang Cai's posture motionless.
"Lord Xiao's ear power is so good, I just couldn't hold my breath, and I was heard immediately." Gu Changming's ears heard another person's voice talking, and the two attendants stood side by side, blocking almost all the view from the window.
Someone came out of the secret place, and he didn't want to escape, but chuckled and said, "Lord Xiao, please believe that I don't have any malicious intent, otherwise I can strike first before you find me." ”
"You're his man!" Xiao Zheng didn't give the other party a chance to explain, and he didn't mean to listen to what he said, "This is still the realm of the Great Song Dynasty, what are you going to do!" ”
"Let's see what Lord Xiao is embarrassed about, do you need help?" The other party's tone was relaxed, and with each step he took, the backs of the two attendants tensed tighter, as if they were on full alert.
"No, I have enough men." Xiao Zheng didn't think about it, and refused in one bite.
"Lord Xiao also said that this is in the Great Song Dynasty, so I feel that there are enough people. Once you enter the territory of Liao, don't you think about it anymore? The other party seemed to pull a chair and sat down casually, "There is no need to be reckless in some things, you and I both know that what the boss wants is just a result, not a process in which we tremble." ”
"The emperor is bent on making peace, even if he enters the Great Liao Realm, it is the same." Xiao Zheng obviously heard what the other party said, but he still pretended not to understand.
"I have always felt that Lord Xiao is a smart person, why can't he turn a corner today, do you have to be cornered to ask for reinforcements? At that time, there was not enough time, and the scene would be even more ugly. The other party sighed, "It's okay, since I'm here, I can give Lord Xiao a little time to think about it, and when you give me the answer again, I will decide to stay." ”
There was silence in the room, and the two entourages wanted to step forward to make a move, but were stopped by Xiao Zheng waving his hand. This man was probably already lurking here before they entered the station, or did he know in advance that he would be staying in this room?
Gu Changming outside the window was thinking about the same problem, and if he could do this accurately, he could only secretly communicate with the officials of the post station without making mistakes.
After this person appeared, Xiao Zheng always spoke Chinese, and he spoke Chinese very well, which can be described by four words.
This person is also a Song person! Gu Changming suddenly had the urge to find out, this person's voice was very unfamiliar, and he should never have appeared in front of him. But this person's identity is too special, a Han man kept saying that he wanted to help the privy envoy of Liao, and he was still dealing with the affairs of the emperor of Liao.
Who has such a big breath and such a big stroke?
Little Phoenix couldn't hear what the people in the room were saying, and her instincts were just as sharp as she could detect that there was someone else in the room, and that person was the key. Otherwise, Gu Changming's expression would not have changed so much, his luck was good, so he came to test it once and met a key person.
"Why should I trust you?" When Xiao Zheng said this, his tone revealed imperceptible tiredness, and it was obvious that since he asked this sentence, he already had a sense of compromise.
The other party chuckled again, but no one dared to stop this obviously ill-intentioned mocking laughter.
"A drum, grass and trees. Two drumming, memory blank. Three drums, the past hurts. Four drums, the song passed away. Five drums, begging for God. Six drums...... "The man was still chanting, the window was broken by gravity from the outside, and sawdust was flying.
And Gu Changming's arms stretched out, just one left and one right patted on the back vests of the two entourage. The little phoenix had already developed a different tacit understanding with him, and immediately after him, he jumped into the house, his body was as light as a fish, and swam between the two, trying to stop the extra person.
"Who are you?" Xiao Zheng was confused this time, and instinctively pulled out the scimitar he was wearing and slashed towards the little phoenix.
Gu Changming used the fastest speed to finish off the two entourage, and his vision suddenly widened and he saw that person.
The man was obviously also turning his head to look at him, his face was covered with a dark wooden mask, and even the eyes were carved with intricate patterns, and he couldn't see his original face at all.
The gaze touched in mid-air, and the other party's reaction was to grab the door and flee. Gu Changming was willing to let go, leaving the little phoenix to deal with Xiao Zheng, and his arm slammed over, wanting to hold the person's shoulder and keep the person.
