Chapter 190 of the year of the fourth volume of the curtain is like a bean, and the crutch and laughing cloak here is not far from Suzaku Avenue, affected by the battle that day, some houses are more severely damaged, and in the light snow night, you can still see people repairing it.

Ning Que didn't seem to hear Chao Xiaoshu's words, looked over there quietly, and after looking at it for a long time, he suddenly said, "A lot of people died on the street that day. ”

Chao Xiaoshu didn't say anything anymore and began to fish haggis from the soup pot.

Ning Que poured wine into his bowl and said, "What do you think about the matter of peace?"

Chao Xiaoshu said: "The court is a big matter, and it is inconvenient for me to speak. ”

Ning Que said: "The battle situation is gradually stabilizing, but it is not beneficial to the Tang Dynasty, and there is too much blood, so it needs to be slowed down for a while, but since we have not lost, we naturally can't suffer losses when we talk." ”

In the 190th chapter of the year of the fourth volume of the curtain of the small tree, the lamp in the house is like a bean, and he said with a smile: "Let's eat first." ”

The soup pot is full of fragrance, and the aroma of wine is much lighter, after all, it is a double steaming that Chao Xiaoshu and Ning Que both like very much during the war, and there is no way to transport it from the north.

The meal was a little silent, and he didn't drink too much wine, until the haggis in the pot was exhausted, and the dipping sauce bottomed out, and he didn't speak again to Xiaoshu.

"This war is too wide-ranging, and all the Tang people are contributing to it, but Li Yu seems to be forgotten, but you should know very well that there are still many people in both the government and the opposition who have not forgotten her. ”

He looked at Ning Que and said: "The prestige of the academy is too high, the queen's means are good, and the most important thing is that because of the invasion of foreign enemies, the government and the opposition can be single-minded, and she is her most loyal subordinate, and she also chooses to lie dormant and calm, but if the war ends or is temporarily terminated, the contradiction will eventually erupt again." ”

Ning Que said: "The adults in the court are not really idiots, the queen mother has shown her means and ability to govern the country, and they have no reason to continue to support Li Yu." ”

Chao Xiaoshu said: "You seem to have forgotten one thing, now everyone in the world knows that the queen is the remnant of the Demon Sect, although the Tang people have never served the Xiling Temple, but the belief in Haotian is the fourth volume of the year of the curtain Chapter 190 The lamp in the house is like a bean, and it is impossible to wash the cloak of crutches and laughter for a while and a half, and people still have a natural sense of disgust for the Demon Sect." ”

Ning Que said, "What exactly do you want to say?"

Chao Xiaoshu said, "That depends on how the academy and the imperial court are prepared to deal with her. ”

"If she is calm, she will be imprisoned in the princess's mansion forever. ”

Ning Que looked at Chao Xiaoshu's eyes and said, "If there is even such an inconspicuous sign of commotion, then I will kill her in the shortest possible time." ”

Chao Xiaoshu looked at him and said, "You and her used to be very close before, and everyone in Chang'an City knows it, I didn't expect you to be so indifferent to her." ”

Ning Que said: "I said that many people have died on this street. ”

He said to Xiaoshu, "I'm going to meet her." ”

Ning Que raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What are you doing when you see her?"

He said to Xiaoshu, "Take a look, or talk about it." ”

"I don't think there's any need to talk about it, but ......"

Ning Que said: "I haven't seen Xiaoman for a long time, so let's go." ”

......

......

The night street was silent, and the princess's mansion, which was once full of guests, seemed particularly lonely and lonely, and even the people who occasionally walked by, no one wanted to glance at the tense gate.

Ning Que knew that there were many guards hidden in the surrounding markets shrouded in night. He always thought that Li Yu was an idiot, but this did not mean that the mother and son in the palace would relax their vigilance against her a little.

He and Chao Xiaoshu walked towards the princess's mansion. Light snow fell on the tense gate, and the courtyard walls were silent and unlit, looking like a tomb.

After General Xuanwei's mansion was beheaded all over the house, it was also very much like a tomb, when he first entered Chang'an, Ning Que went to hang himself a few times, knowing that this was what a ruined mansion should look like, and he didn't feel strange.

He stopped suddenly, and the crutches under his armpits fell into the snow.

He also stopped at Xiaoshu.

In the seemingly normal night, they felt abnormal at the same time, because they heard the faint sound of breathing from the ancient trees behind the wall, and judging by the rate of breathing, the people were a little nervous.

Ning Que looked up at the snow falling in the night sky, the snow was falling slowly, and it was indeed a little beautiful to look at, but he was actually not looking at the snow, his eyes were gently brushing between the branches of the trees on the wall.

Among the branches, he saw clusters of sharp, cold arrows.

"It's a crossbow. ”

He looked at Chao Xiaoshu and said with a smile: "It seems to be still a Shenhou crossbow." ”

Listening to the three words of Shenhou crossbow, Chao Xiaoshu also laughed. A few years ago, he and Ning Que walked into the Spring Breeze Pavilion, killed countless people in the night rain, and when they opened the gate of the palace, what they saw was the Shenhou crossbow.

There is no rain tonight, but there is snow.

After many years, they were once again targeted by the Shenhou crossbow, and the expressions of the two of them were not as solemn as they were back then, but laughed, because they were no longer the same as they were back then.

Chao Xiaoshu is no longer the king of the rivers and lakes, he has already entered the palace lakeside, and he can escape under the willow white sword, and he has already had his place in the ranks of the strong cultivators in the world.

Ning Que has changed the most, although Lao Bizhai is still his, but he has long ceased to sell words for a living, and the once down-and-out border city boy is now a person who has entered the academy.

Not to mention a few Shenhou crossbows, even if there are hundreds of heavy horsemen rushing from the other side of the street at this time, whether it is towards Xiaoshu or Ning Que, they will not be moved by it.

They are very strong, and they are stronger when they stand together, and they have seen the night rain in the Spring Breeze Pavilion a few years ago, or the night snow in front of the princess's mansion a few years later, and they will also be lucky enough to witness it.

"I just want to know where it is now. Ning Que said.

Chao Xiaoshu said: "It should be the blood cloak of Gushan County, the most elite subordinate of the Hua family in the army, you may not know that Hua Shanyue has returned to Chang'an City from the front line." ”

Ning Que said: "If you ask what the situation in the world is, people who are straight to teach will become idiots. ”

......

......

Walking into the princess's mansion, it was still pitch black, only the lights in the mansions outside the wall, by the reflection of the light snow, fell in the garden, and you could barely see the old path between the remnants.

Ning Que had been to the princess's mansion many times, walked directly inside with the small tree, passed through the stone gate, and crossed the lake that had been frozen, and saw the bean-like light on the lakeside terrace.

There were many heavy curtains on the terrace, the lights were dim, and the woman sitting there seemed lonely, it was winter, and no one could understand why she was sitting there and being blown by the cold wind.

Ning Que lifted the veil, looked at Li Yu and said, "It seems that you have been in love lately, and you think about it, as long as you have a thought in your heart, you can always survive no matter how hard the days are." ”

Li Yu was obviously a little clear, but her face was still beautiful, she didn't pay attention to Ning Que, she saluted to the small tree beside him, and said, "Thank you Second Uncle Chao for remembering me." ”

He shook his head at Xiaoshu and did not speak.

Ning Que walked up to her on crutches and rubbed the wick lightly with his fingers to make the oil lamp brighter.

He looked at Li Yu and said: "In the past, I often scolded you for being an idiot behind my back, that is because I have too high requirements for you, in fact, you are not so idiotic, then you should know very well that in this situation, you will either stay in the house or die, and Datang will not give you the right to choose the third way." ”

Li Yu didn't say a word, just looked at him quietly.

Ning Que said, "Why do you want to do such a stupid thing?"

Hearing this, Li Yu laughed, and his smile was a little desolate.

"Being confined to death, or being killed directly, is actually not much different to me now, I would rather choose the latter, and I can't let Xiaoman follow me to live in this tomb for the rest of my life. ”

"It's all excuses. ”

Ning Que's tone was calm, and this calm revealed a temperature that was lower than the snow on the lake.

"If you are worried about Xiaoman, you can directly send someone to tell me, for the sake of the old days, I will not watch him spend his time here in vain, but you didn't say it, because you still want to go out, and you know, I won't let you leave this princess's mansion no matter what. ”

The cold night wind blew up the veil and fell on Li Yu's body, she was a little cold.

Chao Xiaoshu stood aside and was silent.

Li Yu looked at Ning Que and suddenly said, "You hate me so much?"

Ning Que said: "It has nothing to do with love and hate, you know that I have always only considered interests. ”

After saying this, he looked around the terrace and said, "Come out." ”

......

......

There was silence.

After a while, there were voices all around the terrace, including below, and more than ten men in cloaks walked out, and Hua Shanyue walked in the front, holding Xiaoman in his hand.

These people have a weathered face and a solemn temperament, and they are obviously all soldiers, to Ning Que's surprise, the cloaks on these people are all white, not like the blood cloak that Chao Xiaoshu said.

Until a gust of wind rose and rolled up the cloaks of these soldiers, revealing the blood-red color lining them.

Of course, Xiaoman knew Ning Que, and when he saw him standing in front of his mother, he subconsciously wanted to call someone, but suddenly found that the atmosphere on the terrace was a little weird, and forcibly pursed his mouth.

Ning Que looked at him and smiled.

Then he looked at Hua Shanyue and smiled.

He didn't know what means this person and these Tang Army elite blood cloaks used to enter the princess's mansion, but he knew what these people wanted to do, and that was definitely something he couldn't allow.

"I really don't know whether to be disappointed in you or proud of my judgment back then. ”

Ning Que looked at Hua Shanyue, but this sentence was said to Li Yu.

Li Yu said: "I don't believe that he can take me out of Chang'an, but since he is here, I can't drive him away, you must know that he is the first guest from the mansion in these days." ”

Ning Que said to Hua Shanyue: "Your current military position is the head of the three states, and you are only three poles away from the general, I heard that you have made a lot of military achievements on the northern front, but tonight you will turn all of them into smoke clouds, will you regret it?"

Hua Shanyue looked at the crutches under his armpit and said: "Some things, you have to try it once to know if you will regret it, I heard that you are seriously injured, and you met me at this time, or the person who regrets it is you." ”

Ning Que pointed to the small tree.

Hua Shanyue said: "I heard that the leader of the court gang was also seriously injured, and you cultivators were injured, and ordinary people couldn't see it, but according to the army, you are as weak as a rabbit at this time. ”

Ning Que looked at him and a dozen blood cloaks, and said, "There are too many wishful thoughts, and it is really easy to lose heart. ”

Hua Shanyue said: "There are thirty Shenhou crossbows facing you in the night, of course I can think about it. ”
