Chapter 545: The Secret Under the Rockery, There Is No Good Banquet
The princess of the Southern King lived in the border city of Taishoufu.
Before it got dark, the subordinates of the Taishou Mansion were already complaining.
There are no less than dozens of people who have been beaten for serving the princess, and some people have been kicked out of the door because of their poor appearance.
Too punctual to send people from time to time to inquire about the news of the princess.
"The princess complained that the food was too poor, and she only used some soup at noon, but she asked the kitchen to cook more than 30 dishes."
"The princess thought that the light in the east window was too dark, so she ordered someone to tear down the east wall......"
"The princess and the heartless prince are in the room, and they haven't come out for an hour, and the sound seems to be ......"
I rubbed my temples too uncontrollably, listening to the reports of the people below.
"General Xiahou, what are they doing?"
"I didn't see any of them move." The next person replied.
"Can you see them walking around, or asking about something?" Taishou asked.
"Nope."
Taishou breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and let the person who was in trouble retreat.
"So they really don't have anything to fear." Taishou to join the army.
"Now we just have to wait for the time when the Northern Army arrives, and we will take them down." Joining the army lowered his voice and said, "My subordinates have prepared a dinner, and when the time comes, I will invite all the generals and princesses, and when the time comes, they will be all in one place." ”
"Very good!" Taishou stroked his palms and laughed.
As they spoke, a figure was quietly moving out of the courtyard behind the bushes outside the window.
Wang Fengjiao lowered her body and quietly walked out of the yard along the bushes.
She was originally ordered by General Xiahou to be beaten with a military stick and guarded, but because she was General Wang's favorite granddaughter, the beating was not heavy, at most the skin was broken, and a lot of blood was shed, but it did not hurt the muscles and bones.
After entering the border city, she had been lying in the carriage transporting the baggage, thinking that they would soon make a move to rescue General Tian and her brother, but she waited until it was late and did not see General Xiahou take any action, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.
happened to meet the two sergeants guarding her and left, so she quietly climbed out of the carriage with the pain on her body, relying on some martial arts on her body, and actually touched the back house of the Taishou without anyone noticing, wanting to inquire about some news.
Outside the large kitchen, more than a dozen subordinates were busy coming in and out, and from time to time there were complaints outside the window.
"Hurry up, if it's late, the princess of the Southern King will curse again." The little maid waiting at the door had a dark face and said coldly.
"What's urging, don't you see that we are busy, there are many things to prepare for the banquet in the evening, how can I take care of your side first!" The fat cook said unhappily.
The two servants also arrived at the door at this time, and one of them whispered, "It's already busy enough, so the two in the dungeon should skip this meal." ”
"That's right, anyway, they're going to send them on their way tonight, so why bother us......"
"But your lord has an order...... Hey, let's send it away, so as not to be scolded again. With that, the two of them took the basket containing the food and walked away.
Wang Fengjiao held her breath and hid behind the pillars, and after listening to the conversation between the two little guys, her heart suddenly cooled.
The two people in the dungeon, could it be her eldest brother and General Tian?
Gritting her teeth, she simply put her heart sideways, she couldn't wait any longer.
Although she didn't know what the princess and General Xiahou had planned, but now that she had heard the news of her eldest brother, she could no longer sit idly by.
If they can be rescued first, even if General Xiahou blames them, they can make up for their mistakes, and they can also make the princess lose face greatly.
When Wang Fengjiao thought of this, she felt more and more that her idea was reliable, so she followed the two little maids from a distance, walked through the courtyard, and went to the back of the garden.
Through the two moon gates, the two servants came to a rockery in a garden.
The man at the front bent down first, followed by the man behind him.
Wang Fengjiao finally managed to hold back her excitement, and waited for a long time before she saw the two little guys come out from under the rockery one after the other, and left the same way while complaining.
Wang Fengjiao patiently waited for the two to gradually move away, and then came to the rockery lightly.
I saw a hidden wooden door under the rockery, Wang Fengjiao listened attentively, and found that there was no other abnormal sound, so she stretched out her hand and gently pulled it...... The wooden door popped open, revealing a wooden staircase below.
There was a black hole below, and Wang Fengjiao mustered up the courage to walk down the wooden staircase......
The border city is too guarded, and the dinner party.
There was a lot of laughter and laughter during the banquet, and the officials of the border city gathered together, and Xiahou Che and his generals were almost all there.
Between the sounds of silk and bamboo music, it seems that it is also happy, but secretly, everyone's eyes seem to be hiding something.
Du Wei leaned on the luxurious red embroidered gold soft couch, facing the scene of singing and dancing in front of her, with a hint of a smile on her cherry lips, her eyebrows and eyes slightly bent, and her slender eyelashes hanging down, covering the cold brilliance under her eyes.
Linglong and Yu'er are both dressed in colorful clothes, dressed more delicate and beautiful than ordinary people's ladies, unintentionally wearing a big red brocade robe, gold thread embroidered flowers, full of strong incense.
He held the wine jug, and from time to time lowered his head to Du Wei's ear, as if he was saying something flattering, causing the corners of Du Wei's lips to turn up, and the smile trembled.
Taishou raised his glass and said: "This time the official was not well entertained, and I hope the princess will forgive me." ”
Du Wei pursed her red lips and said with a little disgust: "Compared with the capital, you do look much shabby here, but it is difficult for you to have a heart, and the hospitality is thorough, tonight the concubine will not return home with General Xiahou." As she spoke, she raised her glass and saluted Xiahou Che.
Seeing this, Xiahou Che hurriedly raised his glass, and then drank all the wine in the cup, and his eyes crossed the deep meaning that others could not understand.
Putting down the wine glass, Xiahou Che suddenly said, "By the way, Ben General caught a few robbers dressed as caravans halfway and sent them here, I don't know if Lord Taishou can see it?" ”
Taishou hurriedly laughed: "Naturally, I've seen it." ”
"If the general remembers correctly, two generals were sent in the battalion to escort those prisoners, but I don't know where they are now, why haven't I seen them?"
Taishou laughed dryly: "What is this......" He stood and looked at the soldiers on the side.
The army hurriedly said: "The two generals came in a hurry at that time, and Lord Taishou left them to rest in the city, if General Xiahou didn't mention it, the lower officials almost forgot, and they are only afraid that they are still resting in the room now......" Saying that, he instructed his subordinates: "Go and see if the two generals are awake, and invite them to come over and drink." ”
The subordinates retreated.
Xiahou Che and Du Wei exchanged a look, Du Wei shook her head lightly imperceptibly, and Xiahou Che never mentioned this matter again, but drank with the soldier from time to time.
Just as the atmosphere in the banquet was gradually getting warmer, a small servant suddenly came in from outside, leaned into the ear of the army, and didn't know what to say.
I saw that the face of the army was pale, and he suddenly threw away the wine glass in his hand, and then hurriedly went out with the little guy.
Du Wei looked at the backs of the two people leaving, and a trace of uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart.
At this time, there is still an hour before midnight......
