Chapter 14 Umbrella Gift
The wind suddenly became louder, and the rain that had been brewing for a long time fell.
But the cold rain could not extinguish the enthusiasm for heroes in the hearts of the people.
Everyone stood in the middle of the road, staring at the Zhenbei army slowly marching at the end of the city gate.
The corners of Shangguan Li's mouth twitched, feeling that these people were stunned. No matter how powerful he is, Xuanyuan Ye is just a person, not a god.
As a killer, she doesn't know how many unbeatable and lofty targets in the eyes of the world have been solved by herself.
Aren't they all ordinary flesh and blood when they face death?
Shangguan Li lost interest, and slipped the bag and prepared to leave.
But Shangguan Li still underestimated the fanaticism of this group of people, and before she could squeeze out, the crowd suddenly moved, almost surrounding her completely.
Her eyes remained unchanged, and her body shuttled flexibly between the gaps, like a fluctuating feather, and slipped to the empty roadside without a single leaf.
It's more important to go back quickly and make delicious dumplings!
Shangguan Li turned around confidently, and then was stunned.
There were indeed no more civilians behind her, but there was an extra neat group of soldiers.
They rode on horses and kept absolute silence.
At the front of the line, a man in soft armor wore a demon mask over his face, he stood tall, and the rain ran down his helmet through his abyssal eyes.
He looked at Shangguan Li condescendingly.
She actually retreated to the middle of the road?
The corners of Shangguan Li's mouth twitched, this is good, I look embarrassed to watch the excitement.
She took a step back, trying to get back into the crowd, but was caught off guard.
"Wait." The voice is a little hoarse, filtered by the rain, and it is actually a little sexy when it falls on the ears.
A look of vigilance flashed in Shangguan Li's eyes.
saw that the masked man did not embarrass her, but said calmly to the deputy general next to him.
"Give her my umbrella."
Yes?
Not only Shangguan Li, but also many people present were stunned.
The adjutant general was naturally absolutely obedient to his general's orders, and although he had burning doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask.
He took out a clean oil-paper umbrella from under the rain felt on his horse and handed it to Shangguan Li.
Shangguan Li frowned, and he was about to refuse.
"Your stuff is getting wet." The masked man said lightly.
Shangguan Li tightened the sack on her body, she hadn't dealt with these fine irons yet, and it was indeed possible to rust when they were wet with water at this time.
After thinking about it, she still took the umbrella, neither humble nor arrogant.
"Thank you, General, I'll give it back to you."
The man on the horse didn't speak, just let out a low chuckle from his throat.
"Let's go."
Shangguan Li got out of the way and hurriedly withdrew while the attention of the crowd was still on the general.
Only after confirming that she was some distance from the city gate did she look back.
The horse team has disappeared at the end of the long street, and it should be that this route should go directly to the palace to report on work.
This person is very dangerous.
Shangguan Li made a judgment.
It is a hundred times more dangerous than that fool Feng Sichen and his own scumbag father.
I just don't know what he means.
Shangguan Li stretched out the umbrella in his hand, which was an ordinary oil-paper umbrella with a light ink base, and only a small snow-white lotus flower was painted on the entire umbrella surface, which was extremely exquisite.
Forget it, Shangguan Li picked up the umbrella indifferently to block the wind and rain.
No matter what his purpose is, if he threatens her and Tuanzi, let alone an umbrella at that time, even if the king of heaven comes, she can tear off a piece of meat on him.
When Shangguan Li returned to the Jingtang, Tuanzi was reading a medical book in the pavilion by the lake.
"A penny of vermilion, a penny of angelica, a drop of snake venom ......" The immature voice echoed in the rain curtain, very loud.
Shangguan Li smiled.
"Mother?" Tuanzi suddenly turned around, and saw that it was really her.
I didn't read any more books, and I was about to come and pick her up. Frightened, Shangguan Li hurriedly dodged and jumped into the pavilion, which prevented the dumplings from getting wet in the rain.
Shangguan Li handed the umbrella to Tuanzi, and then said.
"It's raining, and you're still running outside, how can you catch a cold?"
Tuanzi pouted, a little unconvinced.
"Didn't my mother teach Yu'er how to cure the cold? Yu'er has learned, don't be afraid. ”
Shangguan Li lightly knocked on the door of the group's head and admonished.
"Even so, you have to take good care of your body, you know?"
Danzi held his head in both hands, and his round little face bulged into a ball, looking more like a cute crystal doll.
Shangguan Li, who was cute, couldn't bear to continue to blame the group.
"Okay, what do you want for lunch?"
"Tamales!" Dango blurted out.
Shangguan Li smiled and said dotingly: "Okay." ”
Imperial Palace, Zichen Palace.
Xuanyuan entered the hall to report on his work.
The emperor, who had always been moody and unhappy, smiled when he saw him.
"Chen Xuanyuan night, he was ordered to rectify the northern border defense, and fortunately he did not fail in his mission."
The mask on his face had been removed, his eyebrows were picturesque, his temperament was gentle, and there was always a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
Anyone who saw him would never have thought that he was the god of war Hades, who terrified the countries around the Great Zhou Dynasty.
The Emperor smiled.
"Yes, yes. Your trip is not only to recover the lost territory, but also to consolidate the border defense, and there will be no more war in the north of my country in the next ten years! How do you want me to reward you? ”
Xuanyuan Ye was still in that indifferent tone.
"It is the duty of a courtier to share his worries for His Majesty, but if His Majesty must reward him, the minister does have one thing he wants to ask His Majesty for permission."
"You say." The emperor waved his hand.
Xuanyuan Ye hooked the corners of his mouth, and his originally gentle and harmless smile suddenly became a little sharper.
"I heard that the county lord of Shaoyang is quite proficient in medical skills, and the minister wants to ask the county lord to help detoxify."
The Emperor was a little panicked when he heard this.
"You're poisoned?"
Xuanyuan Ye nodded.
Shangguan Li felt a little unlucky today, not only was his secret weapon soaked in water and scrapped, but he was called into the palace by a holy decree before he could eat the meal.
Detoxify General Kamui?
Shangguan Li followed the eunuch who led the way, and his mind began to become active.
If it was the man she met on the street, and there was no sign of poisoning on him, could it be a poison that she had never seen before?
Thinking so, the person in front of him suddenly stopped.
Shangguan Li glanced at it, but it was not the Heart Cultivation Hall she had been to. The temperature is noticeably higher than elsewhere, and the vegetation is green.
The eunuch saw her doubts and explained.
"This is the Warm Spring Pavilion, Your Majesty gave this place to General Shenwei to recuperate from his injuries, and the general is already waiting for the county lord inside, please."
Shangguan Li held the chic umbrella in his hand, and walked into the Nuanchun Pavilion with the mentality of being at ease.
The temperature in the Warm Spring Pavilion is about sixteen or seventeen degrees, the furnishings are simple, and there are few things, and even no one has seen one.
The empty room was not enclosed, the opposite side led to the courtyard, and at the moment there was a mist in it.
She probably knew what this place was.
