As soon as the canyon passed, the space suddenly opened up, but it was already dark, and we traveled another five miles before we came to the outside of Mengcheng. Zhu Gaoxu stepped forward first and shouted to open the city gate, and the city gate opened without any further twists and turns.
I sat in the carriage and only heard the sound of the door rumbling in the dark night, followed by the sound of horses' hooves, and I heard Ah Ping calling in front: "Uncle Wang, how is it?" "My heart moved, is Zhu Di here? He was Ah Ping's uncle, and he thought that he would only wait in Mengcheng, but he didn't expect to come to greet him in person. However, after thinking about it, Ah Ping is the deputy marshal of the emperor, even if he has no actual combat experience, he is not a general, but he is equivalent to a personal expedition on behalf of the emperor, so Zhu Di did not dare not come to greet him.
A deep voice floated from not far away: "Bing'er, the generals have been tired for many days, hurry up and go into the city to rest." ”
"Okay." Ah Ping is just one simple word. It was impossible for a whole army to enter the city, so the soldiers stayed outside the city to settle down and camp, and the two generals stayed behind to rectify, and the rest, including Jinyiwei, all entered the city one after another.
I sat in the carriage and still felt nervous despite the curtain, especially when Zhu Di asked lightly: "Who else is in the carriage?" His heart beat faster, and he didn't even dare to get out of the atmosphere, and he pricked up his ears to listen to the movement outside.
Ah Ping's tone was very light: "It's one of my personal guards, who was bitten by a poisonous snake on the way here to save me, so he let him recuperate in the carriage." Zhu Di said: "As a personal guard, you should make a living by protecting the master." ”
There was a black line on my forehead, and he wanted to know that this "guard" was me, and he didn't know if he would say that.
Feeling that the carriage stopped, Ah Ping's voice sounded: "Does Uncle Wang also live in this mansion?" Zhu Di replied: "When the king arrived, the city of Mongolia had been looted, leaving only a small team in the city, and only such a mansion was cleaned up for the time being. After a pause, he suddenly changed his words: "Do your guards need someone to help you?" ”
My heart skipped a beat, did I have to go out and face it? But I heard Ah Ping reply in a shallow voice: "No need, it's just a personal guard, Uncle Mu can cook." After days of running around, I finally arrived in Mengcheng to meet Uncle Wang, I didn't feel it on the way, but I felt tired when I got here, Uncle Wang, let's go in. ”
Zhu Di didn't insist anymore, listening to the two of them getting off the horse outside and then the footsteps were getting farther away, before quietly lifting the curtain, Yan Qi and Lu He were still there next to the carriage, and Uncle Mu was also waiting. Seeing my face, he said, "Lord Yan and His Royal Highness have already gone away, so you can get off the carriage." I ignored Yan Qi's narrow eyes, jumped off the edge of the carriage, and as soon as my feet landed, I heard a voice from the corner of the wall: "Wow, you are really pretending!" I also said that I was bitten by a poisonous snake, I think it's nonsense to be so alive. ”
You don't have to turn your eyes to look for it, and you can tell from that voice that it's Zhu Gaoxu.
It should have been silent since Zhu Di came just now, it stands to reason that Uncle Mu must have seen him come and ask me to get off the carriage after leaving, who would have expected him to go and return or not leave, but just hid in the corner.
At this time, I saw him slowly pacing to him with his hands tied, and his arrogant appearance was very painful. His gaze recklessly looked at me again, and finally landed on my face and asked in confusion, "How can your face be so dark?" ”
I didn't answer Uncle Mu to deal with it first: "The little general doesn't know, she was hit by a snake poison on the road, and the doctor who accompanied the army diagnosed that he had never seen this kind of toxin, so he had to temporarily use a tube of antidote to try, but it turned out to be like this, I am afraid that the toxins have accumulated on the face and cannot be dispersed temporarily." ”
Zhu Gaoxu has an upright personality, he listened to Uncle Mu's explanation and believed it, and said while nodding his head: "Wait for the military doctor in our Yan army team to take a look, he has all the medicines, and he will definitely be able to find out the main cause and prescribe the right medicine." ”
In this way, I can only pretend to be weak and let the green lotus who came up quickly help me to walk. But the nosy Zhu Gaoxu refused to let me go, he walked next to him and was still commenting: "Why are you so short as a brocade guard?" Is it good? How else could it be incorporated into Jinyiwei? ”
I don't care about it very little, but at the moment I play the identity of Ah Ping's personal guard, and he is the son of Zhu Di and a general in the army, and his grade must be many levels higher than mine, and it is rude not to reply. The army has its own military discipline, and if you don't know which rules similar to the following violations will be dealt with.
I had to say in a calm voice: "General Zhu, ability is not based on height. ”
"Hey, how do you know my surname is Zhu?"
I was dumbfounded, and my mind flipped through what they had said before, and finally I could only say vaguely: "I heard you talking to Your Highness before." Zhu Gaoxu seemed to ponder, and then asked to himself: "Did I mention my surname when I talked to Brother Wei?" ”
No! I replied in my heart, where do the two brothers need to speak by name, but his name for Ah Ping should be able to judge the relationship between the two. Pretending not to hear him, his steps couldn't help but quicken his pace, wanting to say that he should leave this man behind, but where is it so easy.
Zhu Gaoxu's eyes turned, and he thought that he had no follow-up, but he suddenly threw a sentence: "This is also in Jinyiwei?" I turned my head and my heart jumped, his eyes falling on Green Lotus.
They've fought before, so they can't be recognized, right? The next moment, I heard him mutter, "Why do you feel familiar?" "Okay, I'm afraid that sooner or later I will be recognized by this kid, so I immediately glanced at Uncle Mu.
Uncle Mu was calm, and said coldly as always: "The little general doesn't need to send it again, we are His Highness's personal guards, just live with His Highness." Zhu Gaoxu nodded: "Then you just turn the corner in front, there are several wings inside." ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand as if he was about to leave, but he suddenly stepped out and turned around and suddenly whispered in my ear: "Your disguise technique is terrible." When I reacted, I could only see his back as he walked away, and suddenly realized that I had already been recognized by him!
Okay, you Zhu Gaoxu, you actually deliberately came to tease me, and you recognized me early in the morning, but you deliberately said something to make me scared. A figure walked out of the porch, I subconsciously drilled into the middle of the brocade guard and lowered my head, and after a while, I heard Uncle Mu calling: "See the prince." ”
Zhu Di replied lightly, and only said: "You can live in the side west wing, but you can protect the imperial grandson nearby." ”
"Yes." Uncle Mu Ying.
Zhu Di walked away at this time, and he felt a little relieved when he saw the long figure disappear into the darkness, and he didn't seem to notice me. It's just that I don't know if Zhu Gaoxu's kid can control his mouth or not, I'm afraid it's difficult, and the previous hosta incident is a good example.
When I entered the courtyard, I saw that Ah Ping was already waiting there, and when he saw us, he immediately greeted me, "Are you okay?" I shook my head, since I had entered the city, what else could I do, and after he was pulled into the house and looked back at the rest of the people who had dispersed, I asked him, "Have you discussed with King Yan about the march?" Where is the Northern Yuan Army now? ”
Mengcheng will only be a transit point, and the whole army will definitely have to set off to attack the Northern Yuan Dynasty and expel it from our dynasty.
"Uncle Wang said that we are too tired from running along the way, so we will rest for one night first, and then meet early tomorrow morning to discuss the battle plan. Daughter-in-law, you must be tired, I'll ask someone to fetch you a bucket of hot water to bathe. ”
I raised my hands in favor of Ah Ping's proposal, and it was nothing else to follow him on the march, but this bath was a big problem. The army is a world of men, they can not bathe for as little as three days, and at most they can not take a bath for half a month, and even if they really want to wash, they will find the nearest river and wash it with cold water. I can't do this, so I can only endure the journey for more than ten days.
Soon the hot water came, and I kicked Ah Ping out and took a comfortable bath. The black nature on the face and hands has also been washed off first, and it will be wiped on later, it may be the reason for covering it for a long time, and there are a lot of small red spots on the arms, which should be a rash.
This expedition did not take Imperial Physician Jiang with him, because he was too old to adapt to the tiring journey of the journey. I brought a younger Imperial Physician Li, and I was considering whether to let him see the rash on his body and prescribe a prescription for him.
Just as he was pondering, he suddenly heard a voice from outside the door: "I'm sorry, Your Highness is not here." It was Yan Qi who was talking, and immediately heard Zhu Gaoxu's voice spread loudly: "I'm not here to find Brother Wei, this is a military doctor, come to show your personal guard how the snake venom is, don't attack the heart." ”
I grinded my teeth, he was really "warm-hearted"!
knew that he was deliberately here to find fault, and he didn't know where Ah Ping went, and now I was afraid that Yan Qi would not be able to deal with it. Normally I would have gone out to see him, but now the situation is different, and I hesitate to open the door and go out.
Suddenly, Ah Ping's voice was clear and loud: "Ah Xu is really warm, and he cares so much about one of my personal guards. ”
My heart was relieved, I didn't have to worry about Zhu Gaoxu when he came back, although the two were of the same age, Zhu Gaoxu would definitely not be as good as Ah Ping in terms of rhetoric. I took a dry towel to wipe my wet hair, and after a while, Ah Ping pushed the door in, and glanced out of the door, and sure enough, there was no trace of Zhu Gaoxu.
