Volume 1 Life History Chapter 23 Intelligence
Yun Shu stood outside the county guard's mansion and paced towards the main entrance.
"Stop, who are you?" The two gatekeepers flicked their spears in their hands and blocked Yun Shu's way.
Yun Shu didn't talk nonsense, took out a token from his sleeve and threw it to one of the soldiers, "Tell the county guard to come out and see me." ”
The soldier took the token and looked at it carefully, and laughed: "Just because of this broken thing, you want to see our county guard?" Last month, the owner of the king took a whole box of gold to honor our county guard. You don't have enough to see. ”
"Why don't you take off the veil on your face, if it's a little pretentious, our brothers can go in and say goodbye, and let the adults accept you as a concubine." The other soldier laughed obscenely.
"Give you one last chance, take the token and go in to the county guard, and he will come out to meet me."
The two soldiers glanced at each other, and looked at Yun Shu a little suspiciously, looking at her a little bit like a bluff, in case the county guard really recognized this thing, the two of them would inevitably be punished.
"Okay, I'll go in and report it, if the county guard doesn't know this, don't blame me for being ruthless." The soldier with the token said a cruel word and walked towards the house.
Yun Shu stood in place, his expression did not change in the slightest, but his heart was like falling into an ice cave. A small county guard guard is still so arrogant, seeing the subtle knowledge, you can imagine what kind of person this county guard is.
"Slow, I'm gone today."
"Phew. What the fuck are you playing with me? The soldier spat fiercely on the ground and turned his head to look at Yun Shu viciously.
"Give me something, I'll come back another day."
"Come when you say you come, and leave when you say you go?" The soldier played with the token in his hand, "You have entertained our brothers and sons for so long, so let's leave five taels of silver, and I will give you this thing, otherwise ......"
"Just hold it here."
Yun Shu looked at him with cold eyes, "What?" Not convinced? Don't ask what kind of place this is, dare to go wild here? ”
Yun Shu clenched his fists vigorously, these people must be severely punished. Her eyes flickered, and she remembered that she just had five taels of silver on her body, which Jiang Li gave her when she was in Guang'an City a few days ago. She took out the silver and threw it to the soldier.
The soldier tossed the money upside down, nodded with satisfaction, and threw the token to Yun Shu, "Get out, get out." ”
"Trust me, you'll regret it." Yun Shu closed the token and turned away without looking back.
"Cut, when our brothers are scared? A little girl......"
Yun Shu walked down the street, and the foul language of the two soldiers was still in his ears......
Yun Shu turned the street, resisting the urge to cry, after coming out of the inn today, she had already asked around and confirmed that the Emperor of Great Xia had died. She was already grief-stricken, and now she came to the county guard's mansion just to find out some information that ordinary people didn't know. And now, she is a princess, and she can't even enter a county guard's mansion.
This is different from what she imagined, what she imagined was that under the rule of her father, the people would be happy and the road would not be left behind; Be honest and honest as an official, and work hard and practically.
She held the token in her hand hard, and a cold light flashed in her eyes, today's matter can't just be settled. She thought about it, there was another place, so she went straight to a relatively remote mansion in the city.
"Stop, who's trespassing?"
Yun Shu didn't speak,
Yun Shu didn't speak, stretched out his hand and showed the token in his hand.
When the person who spoke before saw the token in Yun Shu's hand, his pupils immediately shrank, and he immediately knelt down on one knee and said, "My lord." ”
The place where Yun Shu is now is the branch of Xia Yintang, a secret organization in Great Xia, in Donghai County, and the token in her hand is a purple gold order that only the emperor's relatives can have, and it is painted with five stars, which is the highest level of purple gold order. At present, the only known five-star purple gold order is the Great Xia God of War and Wang Xin, the king of the same word. This five-star purple gold order also has a role, that is, under the temple, I will come in person!
The man guarding the door was not as eyeless as the two soldiers before him, and immediately bowed down and waited for Yun Shu's next instructions. Although Wang Xin was the only one in the five-star purple gold order on the face of the Great Xia Dynasty, she was not stupid enough to think that the woman in front of her could snatch things from Wang Xin's hands. At the same time, he secretly guessed the origin of this young woman in his heart.
"Get up and take me to your branch master."
"Yes, sir." The gatekeeper opened the courtyard gate and greeted Yun Shu respectfully. Get in.
"Please wait a moment, and let me be humble."
Yun Shu nodded.
This scene made De Yunshu sigh in his heart, worthy of being the descendant led by his second uncle himself, this gatekeeper is very different from the gatekeeper soldiers of the county guard, and his speech and demeanor are not many grades.
Just as she was thinking like this, a rush of footsteps came, and a sturdy middle-aged man ran straight to Yun Shu's side, knelt down on one knee, and hugged his fists and said, "Hu Yanyi, the head of the Xia Yin Hall Branch of Donghai County, see Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Yun Shu was very curious, "Hall Master, please get up, how can the Hall Master recognize me at a glance?" ”
"Please invite Her Royal Highness the princess into the house, and let the ministers know." Yun Shu nodded and followed Hu Yanyi into the official residence. He looked around, not as extravagant as he imagined, but very simple.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess, three days ago, the hall master issued an order to all Xia Yin Hall branches to find Her Royal Highness the Princess, plus the five-star purple gold order in Her Highness's hand, so the lower officials concluded that Her Royal Highness the Princess was visiting." Hu Yanyi arched his hand and said.
"Uncle looking for me? Did you say what it was? ”
"This ...... The lower official doesn't know very well, Her Royal Highness the princess should know about that, right? Hu Yanyi raised his head slightly, observing Yun Shu's expression.
"You mean my father died, I already know." Yun Shu tried hard to calm his heart and make himself look calm. "Where's my eldest brother? Has he already ascended the throne? ”
"This ......" Hu Yanyi looked at Yun Shu, and from her question, it could be seen that she didn't know about the palace upheaval.
"After the subordinates finished speaking, please don't be sad with Her Royal Highness the Princess." Hu Yanyi carefully considered the next wording in his heart.
"What happened?" Yun Shu had a bad premonition in his heart.
"On the day the emperor died, the queen also went with him. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince committed suicide in Shu, and Wang Yan, the king of Zhao, was assassinated in the capital, and the one who succeeded to the throne was the first three princes, Wang Qin, the king of Qi. Hu Yanyi said cautiously.
Yun Shu stumbled and almost fell to the ground. Seeing this, Hu Yanyi wanted to come up and help, but was stopped by Yun Shu's gesture.
"Queen Mother...... Big Brother ......"
Yun Shu felt that her heart was about to break, she really wanted to lie on the table and cry freely, but she couldn't, she was the princess of Great Xia, and she couldn't let her subjects see her cowardly appearance. She held her head high, trying to force back the uncontrollable tears.
She has lived with her mother since she was a child, because there are not many heirs in the harem, she has been pampered since she was a child, and whenever she makes a mistake, her mother is reluctant to punish her. And her eldest brother, who is the same mother as her, is naturally close and additional, and Yun Shu also likes her eldest brother very much. And in just a few days, the three most important people in her life left her at the same time! As for Wang Yan, the king of Zhao, every time he sees Yun Shu, he will look at him with his disgusting eyes, and Yun Shu's least favorite thing in the clan is him, and now that he is dead, he is innocent.
Hu Yanyi sat in the first place and was silent, and he didn't dare to come out. He knew that Her Royal Highness the princess must be very uncomfortable at this time, and at this time, it was better not to speak.
"Hall Master Huyan." After about ten minutes, Yun Shu finally came back to his senses a little.
"The subordinates are here."
"Where is my uncle now?"
"The hall master ordered Xia Yintang to search for the whereabouts of Her Royal Highness the princess throughout the country, and if there is any information, report it quickly. Although the hall master did not mention it in the order, since the hall master said that there was information about the princess and immediately reported it, it means that the hall master should still be in the grass hall outside Guang'an City. ”
Yun Shu nodded after hearing this, the top priority now is to find her uncle, after all, he may be the only one who knows the secret of that palace upheaval now.
Moreover, she can only go to Wang Xin now, this uncle has been obedient to her since she was a child, and every time he enters the palace, he has to come to visit her and bring her a lot of small gifts with different styles. It can be said that now in this world, she only has Wang Xin, a real relative.
As for Wang Qin, a trace of coldness flashed in Yun Shu's eyes. Why did the eldest brother and Wang Yan die at the same time on the day of his father's death? Although she is simple, she has lived in the emperor's family since she was a child, and she still understands some things, the eldest brother and Wang Yan are dead, Wang Yan is dead, Wang Qin can get the greatest benefits, and she can pick the last fruits of this palace upheaval! Yun Shu secretly swore in her heart that one day, she would ask Wang Qin in person to understand!
"Her Royal Highness the princess, I will go to prepare for the relevant matters, escort the princess away early tomorrow morning, and go to Guang'an City to find the hall master." Hu Yanyi stood up and said to Yun Shu.
Yun Shu thought for a while, "Don't worry, Huyan Hall Master, how many Xia Yin Hall masters are there in this Donghai County?" ”
Hu Yanyi was stunned for a moment, but still truthfully informed Yun Shu of the situation: "In Donghai County, there are more than 400 hermits in Xia Yintang, except for dozens of civilians, all of whom are equipped with martial arts. ”
Yun Shu nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Okay, you immediately gather three hundred hermits, and within half an hour, come here to standby." I have a task for you to complete. ”
Hu Yanyi was entangled for a moment, and still asked: "Dare to ask Her Royal Highness the Princess, what is the task, so many hermits are needed?" After all, for an ordinary task, dozens of hermits are enough. ”
"Just do what I say." Yun Shu stood up,
"This Great Xia is no longer the Great Xia of the past,"
"It's sick, and it's not light,"
"Now, I'm going to make the tumors that make it sick,"
"Pay the price!"
