Chapter 50: The Frosty Mirror
Zhang Xin was wearing a leather armor and waiting in a side hall of Qingyang Palace, walking back and forth on the ground from time to time, with anxiety on his face that could not be concealed, and suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming here, and hurriedly turned around to see a Taoist priest walking in front of him.
I saw that this Taoist priest made a mockery and said, "Your Excellency has been waiting for a long time!"
Zhang Xin barely squeezed out a smile, and Ying He said, "It's okay, how do you reply when you ask?"
Hearing the guard's question, the Taoist priest showed an apologetic expression: "It's really unfortunate, Daozheng is in retreat, but other deacons can't be the master, but they let Your Excellency run for nothing!"
Zhang Xin was stunned for a moment, didn't say anything, arched his hand, and retreated from the main gate, got on the horse, and ran towards the mansion of the Marquis of Wei.
When they arrived at the door, the guards knew each other, knowing that this was the prince's personal guard, so they didn't dare to stop it, and they passed all the way to the courtyard.
Push open the door and go in directly, he is the prince's personal guard, but he doesn't have to wait for the summons.
When the prince of Wei Hou saw the guards coming back, he asked expressionlessly, "What did Dao Zheng say?"
Zhang Xin lifted his hem, knelt down on one knee towards the prince, held up the private seal with both hands, collided with the leather armor, and made a knocking sound. ”
"What?!, or refused?, good!!" Wei Hou Shizi laughed angrily, and said coldly after laughing.
There was silence in the hall for a moment, and after a while, he turned back to the guards and said, "You go down first." ”
"Yes!" Zhang Xin should have retreated.
Daozheng is in retreat, and the deacon in the palace has no right to be the master?
This is obviously a shirk, Wei Hou Shizi gritted his teeth and thought silently, thought for a moment and got up, and walked quickly towards his father's house, this matter was no longer under his control.
The residence of the prince and the marquis of Wei is only separated by a garden, in fact, it is still connected, the entrance is guarded by soldiers, and the soldiers see the prince coming, they dare not stop it, retreat to the left and right, and let the prince pass.
"I want to see my father. After a while, he arrived at the inner hall of the Marquis of Wei, and the prince said to the maid, "You go in and report." ”
"Yes, slave and maid obey. Seeing that Shizi's face was gloomy, as if he could drip water, the maid didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly trotted back to pray.
After a while, the maid ran out again: "Shizi, Master Hou asked you to go in." ”
"Hmm. Wei Hou Shizi hummed from his nose, indicating that he knew, and strode in.
When he walked in, he saw Wei Hou sitting on a chair, looking at a scroll in his hand, and when he saw Shizi coming in, he pointed to the chair below: "Sit." ”
He asked again: "Why is my son in the mood to be lonely again?"
The prince of Wei Hou didn't dare, but he stepped forward, straightened his robe, and knelt down solemnly: "The child came to ask his father for guilt!"
When Wei Hou heard this, his bright eyes narrowed slightly: "Oh, what is the crime? ”
In the city of Wei Hou's mansion, Wei Hou Shizi didn't believe this at all, Wei Hou still didn't know anything, and his thoughts turned sharply, so he had already decided to confess and plead guilty.
Thinking of this, he suddenly didn't dare to slack off, 1510 told the whole story, and leaned over to ask for the guilt again: "The son is not doing well, and he also asks the father to give him the guilt." ”
After listening to the words of the prince, Wei Hou was half silent, although his eyes were heavy, but he was not surprised, the prince faintly saw it, and quickly lowered his head, stared at the green bricks on the ground, and waited for his father's words.
After a while, Shizi's kneeling legs were sore, Wei Hou frowned, and said calmly for a long time: "You made a big mistake this time, but the responsibility is not all on you, you go back and reflect, don't be impatient, this matter is not simple, wait for the investigation to be clear and then make a decision!"
"Yes!" Seeing that his father was planning in his chest, the prince couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and got up and retreated.
Seeing that the prince retreated, Wei Hou didn't move, just took a sip of tea, thought silently, got up and paced again, stopped suddenly, and said, "Qin Chuan, come out." ”
Suddenly, the curtain behind him moved, and a middle-aged man with a calm bearing came out, this person walked up to Wei Hou, saluted, and asked in a deep voice: "Master Hou, do you have any orders?"
Wei Hou turned around and looked at the tent where Qin Chuan was hiding, his eyes were condensed, and there was an awe-inspiring expression between his words: "You write this matter into a book, and quickly whip up the book in Xinshui!"
Qin Chuan was slightly stunned, so he agreed, turned around, and on the bookcase, spread out the paper and studied the pen and ink, and wrote after a little thought, after a stick of incense, he waved the pen into the pen holder, and quietly waited for the ink to dry up.
After a while, the ink was dry, and Qin Chuan gave it to Wei Hou again, Wei Hou read it carefully, added a seal, and said, "Yes, you can submit the book according to this!"
Qin Chuan answered, hurriedly rolled it up, tied two layers of oiled paper, put it on his waist, saluted again, and went out.
Out of the mansion, Qin Chuan stopped a carriage, jumped on it, and said, "Get out of the city and go to the river embankment!"
Although the coachman wondered what this man was doing at the embankment in winter, he did not dare to ask, so as not to have a disaster.
Trouble came from the mouth, but these low-level people knew that when they arrived at the city gate, two guards came up to check, and when they saw that there were no weapons and wanted criminals, they let them go.
"This guest officer, it's time to get there!" As the horses neighed, the car stopped, Qin Chuan lifted the door curtain and saw that the big river in front of him was frozen, thousands of feet white, and he arrived at the Xinshui River.
Without saying a word, he jumped down and threw a piece of silver to the coachman.
The coachman took the silver, and was immediately overjoyed, did not stop, drove the carriage, and went all the way back to the city, until the coachman was far away and could not see his figure, Qin Chuan turned around.
On the surface of the river, the ice and snow were frozen, and the original rolling Xin water was frozen, Qin Chuan stood by the river, and in response to the strong wind of hunting by the river, he raised the scroll in his hand, and the invisible ripples spread to the surroundings, spreading into the distance one by one, until the bottom of the river.
In the water house in the river, a shrimp general was patrolling in place, and suddenly heard this kind of inspiration, and was suddenly startled, and said to the two fish soldiers around: "You come with me, someone comes with a letter from Wei Hou, and accompanies me to go up to answer." ”
These fish soldiers can't be transformed, they are still spirits who have just become little demons, they can't even speak, they just scream, follow behind the jade shrimp general, step on the waves all the way, and float towards the water.
At the top of the river, there is a layer of thick ice half a meter wide, covering the river surface, the jade shrimp spear upward, stabbed hard, "boom", along with the ice cracking, the bench-sized ice splashed everywhere, and the river suddenly broke a large mouth with a radius of one zhang, and suddenly revealed the secluded river water, clear and clear, with a trace of cold.
The jade shrimp will float up from the river, and the two fish soldiers will follow behind, and they will see a middle-aged man on the river bank, dressed in Confucian clothes, holding a scroll high in the hunting wind, standing awe-inspiring.
Seeing this, the jade shrimp hurriedly slid over and took the scroll.
Seeing this middle-aged man's awe-inspiring appearance, he couldn't help but sneer, but he didn't say anything, retreated to the mouth of the ice, sank down, and went to the bottom of the river.
Qin Chuan stood on the shore with an expressionless face, these monsters were legends three hundred years ago, but now they can be clearly contacted, but the task is completed, he doesn't have to stay here anymore, he retreats to the back, leads the horse and turns over, and goes towards the city.
The river is deep, deep and cold if the river water flows, forming a line at the bottom of the river, the jade shrimp will swim at the bottom of the river, to a deep river, this is not counted, there is a depression under this, there are thirty meters straight down, a crystal palace emerges, the surrounding light is shining, this is the arrival.
In front of him is the water mansion of Xinshui Hebo, and rows of soldiers patrolled around the main hall until the high platform.
The jade shrimp will walk steadily, and the aquarium soldiers will look over, but they will not stop it, the rules of the aquarium are very different from those of the human race, which can be seen here.
When he arrived at the high platform, he stopped his steps, and the jade shrimp general knelt on the ground and said loudly to the empty throne: "Wei Hou submitted a letter to Xinshui, and the last general came to present the letter." ”
On the throne of coral inlaid with pearls, there was a faint golden light, and for a moment, the Xinshui River Bo who was sitting upright was revealed, and the faint golden light around it could be seen, and it said: "Present!"
"Yes!" the jade shrimp responded, got up, stepped forward, put a scroll of letters in the hands of the aquarium attendant who was waiting in front of him, and then calmly retreated, standing below, silent.
He Bo picked up the scroll in the hand of the aquarium boy and flipped through it carefully, without any change in expression.
Under the high platform, many generals gathered on the high platform, quietly waiting for Hebo's order.
But in a moment, after reading the scroll, he was "snapped" by Hebo and thrown on the jade table in front of him.
Xin Shui Hebo closed his eyes, his face was gloomy, and he pondered silently.
Recently, it also felt its heart shaken, and when it received the letter, it was even more touched, and after a moment it opened its eyes, snorted coldly, and took out a mirror.
This mirror is not big, the front is a golden polished surface, the reverse side is a cyan pattern, faintly revealing five colors, there are three inches, this is Hebo's magic weapon "Han Rhino Mirror", can detect the scene within three hundred miles, and can investigate some cause and effect, but it takes a lot of effort to get the magic weapon.
It has been successful in the past, and there are many treasures based on this.
Silently using his divine power, the golden light on the mirror suddenly appeared, shooting straight out three feet, and the mirror surface became different, quickly passing through countless scenes, and after a while, the spell was dispersed.
He Boyu frowned, and in the blink of an eye, he showed it again, got off the throne, paced back and forth on the high platform for a few steps, and said: "The world is turbulent, and there is another incident in the territory of Wei Hou, which is widely implicated, and even the water tribe is implicated." ”
"This god uses secret methods to sense, but it is only a hazy perception, you should pay more attention, don't cause trouble recently, create trouble, so as not to lead to robbery. ”
Under the high stage, the generals listened to it, and they all promised to come down again and again, and seeing this, Hebo's face softened.
It's just that it didn't say some things, and the letter told about the incident, pointing the finger at Wang Cunye, but it felt that this catastrophe might not be on Wang Cunye.
But after careful investigation, he has a relationship with him that is difficult to get rid of.
Seeing this, Shui Bo suddenly felt terrified, and immediately restrained his subordinates, watched the changes, found the right context, and planned to act, so as to survive the disaster, thinking of this, it waved its hand and signaled the generals to retreat.
The generals looked at each other, but they were speechless, so they retreated, but for a moment, the hall was empty, except for Hebo sitting on the throne on the high platform, quietly contemplating.
