Chapter 16: The Old Rain of New Knowledge (2)
The two of them were eating, and suddenly several people came over and sat down on the originally empty table next to them. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info They all had the utensils and food in their hands, and when they put it on the table, they were quite heavy, making a noisy sound of "bang, bang, bang", and the juice splashed, and many of them splashed directly on Xiaoguang and Guo Xiaoshi.
Guo Xiaoshi raised his eyebrows, and secretly said that something was wrong.
He was eating just now, his attention had not been idle, he had already seen clearly that these people had already been in the distance, and just now he looked here and muttered for a long time, and then he specially walked to this table and sat down, the purpose of which was self-evident, obviously to find trouble.
What Guo Xiaoshi "saw", Xiaoguang naturally "saw" it, but he only glanced at those people, and then lowered his head and continued to eat.
However, Guo Xiaoshi took a few more looks, and several people on the other side had military rank marks on their uniforms, with a star shining brightly on them, which showed that they were not ordinary Praetorian Guard soldiers, but figures above the regiment commander, and the tallest person was even a brigade commander, only one step away from being able to take charge of a legion, and he was definitely the best among the officers.
"Boy, what are you looking at? Believe it or not, I'm going to gouge out all your eyeballs. ”
The other party saw that the "splashing soup" could not make Guo Xiaoshi and Xiaoguang react, so he took advantage of the topic and grabbed Guo Xiaoshi's more looks, and one of them immediately glared back viciously, and put a cruel word in his mouth unscrupulously.
Guo Xiaoshi knew in his heart, and lowered his head to eat again without any reaction, ignoring the other party at all.
The man was stunned, he didn't expect these two people to be so tolerant, and they didn't pay attention to such a provocation, so he couldn't help but glance at the other companions silently, and there was a slight cold scene for a while.
After eye contact.
Of course, those people were so calculating, of course they would not be willing to give up, one of them turned to the table of Xiaoguang and Guo Xiaoshi, and said, "Hey, you two are the escorts of the six young ladies of Yuse and Tibetan Blue this time, right?" ”
Xiaoguang raised his head slightly silently, in response to the other party's words. Guo Xiaoshi didn't even raise his head, and continued to eat in large gulps.
The man pointed at Xiaoguang with his finger and asked, "I heard that General Cheng was originally kind enough to arrange for you to live temporarily outside the imperial city today, and the safety of the six young ladies of Yuse and Tibetan Blue is the responsibility of our Praetorian Guards, but you said that the Praetorian Guards could not protect the good young lady, and they insisted on entering the imperial city, right?" ”
Although this seems to be true, the logic in the words is somewhat different from the actual situation, and this little discrepancy makes things sound completely wrong.
Of course, Xiaoguang didn't defend anything at this time, it was self-deprecating, so he looked at the other party blankly and continued to remain silent. Guo Xiaoshi, who was on the side, lifted a bowl of soup, tilted his head and poured it into his throat, as if he had not heard it.
The other party took advantage of this opportunity to feign anger and said: "Since you don't speak, then it is a tacit acquiescence that what I said is correct!" In this way, I would like to ask, what kind of thing are you, at best, you are just a dog pig who cares for the home for the sake of crystal coins, how dare you look down on our Praetorian Guard so much? ”
The man's words were unpleasant, and he deliberately raised his voice when he spoke, so that everyone in the side hall could hear it clearly, which immediately attracted the eyes of the Praetorian Guards in the fiery red uniforms, with a thick sense of unkindness, like a rain of swords and swords.
Xiaoguang's brows furrowed slightly, and the anger in his heart grew.
Although he told Guo Xiaoshi to be patient before, at this time, he couldn't help it first.
The person on the other side stood up as he spoke, and provoked Xiaoguang and Guo Xiaoshi unabashedly: "If you two have the ability, compare with us, see whose fists are hard, if you don't dare to compare, we won't embarrass you, get out of the imperial city immediately, don't be embarrassed here." ”
As soon as he said this, all the Praetorian Guards in the side hall immediately caused a lot of heckling, mixed with a lot of foul language and abuse.
"You ......"
Xiaoguang's eyes flashed with coldness, and he was about to speak......
That's when —
"Uh, it's so full!"
Guo Xiaoshi put the bowl down, patted his stomach, and sighed loudly, focusing everyone's attention on him in an instant. Immediately, he turned his head, looked at the Praetorian Guard officer, and said with a smile: "Compare, compare, how do you want to compare...... Well, I have a good idea here, I don't know if you dare? ”
Looking at the annoying smile on Guo Xiaoshi's face, the officer's brain was full of blood, and he immediately responded loudly: "Okay, you just agreed to say that, just tell me your idea!" ”
……
In the banquet hall on the side of the hall, the host and guest sides are changing cups at this time, laughing and laughing, and the atmosphere is lively and harmonious.
The form of the banquet is similar to the buffet banquet of the Earth Dynasty, free and casual, and the guests during it are all important figures in the current capital of Jin'an Kingdom, and no one can enter this banquet hall without a little weight.
At the center of everyone, there is an old man standing like the stars holding the moon, it is His Majesty the current emperor of Jin Anguo. This old emperor has been in power for more than two hundred years, and at this time he is already in his twilight, and he even needs special support to walk, and his old age is revealed.
The six members of Yu Se Navy stood near the old emperor, and they spoke to the old emperor without saying a word.
There is another person beside the old emperor, a beautiful and quiet girl. She was dressed as a princess and wore jewels of all kinds and dazzling, and the number of them belonged to all the ladies in the entire banquet hall, showing the royal wealth.
If Guo Xiaoshi was on the spot, he would definitely be able to recognize the girl in front of him, it was the girl priest Qingwen.
Of course, what Guo Xiaoshi had no way of knowing was that the identity of the girl priest Qingwen at this moment was the eldest grandson of the old emperor and the first heir to the throne of Jin Anguo.
Taking advantage of the pause between the old emperor's words, Princess Qingwen, who had rarely spoken up, suddenly took the initiative to say to the six members of Yuse Navy: "When I served the Holy Lord of Guangquan in the temple in the past, I had a guard...... Well, he's also a good friend of mine, and this time he seems to be in the escort of your ladies, but I don't know if I'm mistaken, I'd like to inquire. ”
The six girls were immediately curious when they heard this, and Zhang Junmi, as the captain, hurriedly answered: "I don't know who Her Royal Highness the princess is talking about?" ”
Qingwen lightly reported a name: "Guo Xiaoshi." ”
"Guo Xiaoshi?"
Zhang Junmi was a little surprised, she didn't expect that the person in front of her Royal Highness the princess was talking about was him, but she quickly came back to her senses and nodded: "That's right, this friend of Her Royal Highness the princess is currently a member of our escort team this time." ”
"That's right!"
Qingwen nodded, with joy in his heart, and secretly confirmed that it was Brother Guo.
It's not that she has a bad memory and has forgotten Guo Xiaoshi's appearance, it's just that the higher Guo Xiaoshi's cultivation, his body shape and appearance have changed, and the more he has become, the more symmetrical it is, making it impossible to recognize at a glance. This is also the reason why Guo Xiaoshi is not worried about revealing his identity because he showed his face in the refugee camp, as long as someone does not specifically check him, his identity will not be exposed.
The reason why Qingwen knew that Guo Xiaoshi was in Yu Se Zangqing's escort was because he had watched the live broadcast of Yu Se Zangqing in the refugee camp before, and he could roughly recognize it at a glance, but he was not sure.
"Qingwen, when did you make any good friends? Why doesn't the emperor and grandfather know? The old emperor listened for a while, and couldn't help but interject, and his words were full of doting on Qingwen: "Since your good friend is also in the escort of several young ladies, it is better to invite him over and let the imperial grandfather see what kind of good friend you have!" ”
"Okay, Grandpa!"
Qingwen also had expectations in his heart, so he turned his gaze to Zhang Junmi, intending to ask.
Zhang Junmi understood, nodded and said: "Guo Xiaoshi is our accompanying escort, just outside the side hall, Her Royal Highness the princess can send someone to bring him." ”
The old emperor glanced behind him.
As General Cheng Wen, who was in charge of the security work of Yu Se and his party this time, was on call at any time in the back, and when he got the signal of the old emperor, he hurriedly bowed slightly, and immediately asked people to go to the side hall to find Guo Xiaoshi.
