Chapter 180: Banquet Under the Moon
After turning over the two mountains, the majestic Yangnan City suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Turning his head to look, he could vaguely hear the voice of Xun Tuo's army shouting and communicating, and in front, Yangnan City was brightly lit, and it seemed that someone had been waiting here early.
Li Luo, who led the way, walked quickly to Xiao Chen and bowed: "Lord Wang, we have reached the boundary of Yangnan City." ”
Nodding slightly, Li Luo turned over and dismounted, and in front, he could vaguely see a column of people and horses running towards him quickly, and in the rear, the movement of Xun Dao's army was getting closer and closer.
As the saying goes, there are jackals in front and chasing soldiers in the back, and the current situation is nothing more than that.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Wu Liang leaned over to Xiao Chen's side and whispered, "Lord Wang, otherwise, let's avoid the limelight first?" ”
Xiao Chen smiled deeply, shook his head and said, "No, Ye Zhichu and I are also old friends, so I just took this opportunity to meet him." ”
Wu Liang looked puzzled, he didn't understand why Xiao Chen made such a decision at this juncture, the prince who was extremely familiar with him before seemed to be becoming strange little by little, this strange feeling made him dare not say much, so he could only nod lightly.
The men and horses galloping in front of them soon came to Xiao Chen's people, looking at Xiao Chen, a soldier in armor asked:
"Your Excellency is Xiao Chen, the king of Yong'an?"
Xiao Chen nodded.
The soldier arched his hand slightly: "The last general, Chang Yusen, was ordered by Taishou to come to greet the prince." ”
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes and smiled: "It seems that Xun Dao's news is much faster than mine." ”
Chang Yusen's face was as usual, and he didn't say a word.
Turning over and getting on the horse again, Xiao Chen shouted at everyone: "Go, go to Yangnan." ”
Xiao Chen and his entourage slowly walked towards Yangnan City, but Chang Yusen remained in place, as if he was waiting for something.
It didn't take long for Xun Tuo to lead the army to appear in the eyes of the soldiers, and when he saw Chang Yusen, Xun Tuo quickly came to the latter's side and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Xiao Chen?" ”
Chang Yusen glanced at the direction of Yangnan City and said, "I've gone to Yangnan City." ”
"Good!" Xun Dao laughed cruelly: "This time, I saw where he Xiao Chen was running, and told Tai Shou that I, Xun Dao, owed him a favor." ”
Xun Dao said that he was about to lead his troops to Yangnan City, but was interrupted by Chang Yusen stretching out his hand.
"Chang Yusen, what do you mean by this?" Looking at Chang Yusen, who stopped him, Xun Dao's brows furrowed slightly.
Chang Yusen said in a condensed voice: "I'm sorry general, I have an order, and when I enter Yangnan City, it is a matter of being too guarded, and I hope that the general will not overstep his bounds." ”
Xun Tuo's eyes narrowed: "Ye Zhichu, he wants to swallow this credit alone?" ”
Chang Yusen's face was indifferent, and he said lukewarmly: "Whether it is credit or trouble, it is my internal affairs in Yangnan, but if the general insists on entering Yangnan City, it is against His Majesty's will to let the general garrison Tiger Roaring City, the general is a smart person, he will not be obsessed, right?" ”
Xun Tuo shouted angrily: "But he Xiao Chen took away my Xun Tuo's people." ”
Chang Yusen's eyes showed a touch of contempt: "What the general said, it's that folk woman, right?" ”
Xun Tuo's face was a little ugly and he didn't speak.
Chang Yusen continued: "For the sake of a woman who is so aggressive, isn't the general really afraid of His Majesty's anger and responsibility? ”
"The last general advises the general to stop everything in moderation. By the way, Lord Taishou also asked me to bring a message to the general, Lord Taiwei is also in Yangnan City now. ”
Hearing this, Xun Dao was stunned, and finally let out a long breath and said weakly: "I know." ”
Gently arching his hand towards Xun Dao, Chang Yusen rode away with the guards.
Looking at Chang Yusen's departing back, Xun Dao clenched his fists fiercely.
"Ye Zhichu!"
Gritting his teeth and shouting angrily, Xun Dao slammed a punch into the air.
Ge Mu on the side hesitated for a moment and said: "General, that Ye Zhichu is now demoted to Yangnan, but he is just a party too guarded, why are you afraid of him?" ”
"Afraid?" Xun Dao sneered: "When did I, Xun Dao, ever be afraid of him Ye Zhichu?" ”
"The general ......"
"It's because of Master Li Song!" Xun Dao took a deep breath and said: "Although His Majesty has the final say in our Qianguo, everyone knows that everything in military affairs is arranged by Lord Li Song, and Li Song and the right minister are very close, the waves that this old man can set off in the Qianguo can drown you and me at will, if it is not necessary, I don't want to embarrass Lord Taiwei." ”
Ge Mu was a little displeased: "Then let Xiao Chen go like this?" ”
"Xiao Chen!" Xun Tuo looked viciously in the direction of Yangnan, and said in a deep voice: "Since I joined the army, I have never been so insulted, and if he Xiao Chen dares to touch my Xun Tuo's things, he must be ready to meet my Xun Tuo's anger." ”
……
Yangnan City is brightly lit, and above the city tower, a figure is sitting alone under the moon, and the white moonlight is sprinkled down, reflecting his figure extremely chic.
Xiao Chen raised his head and glanced deeply at Ye Zhichu on the city tower, counting this time, it was the second time that the two had met.
The city gate was wide open, as if it was welcoming Xiao Chen's people.
But the darkness that looked along the city gate gave people a bottomless sense of fear, as if it was a fierce beast with a big mouth, waiting for Xiao Chen to send it to the door by himself at this time.
Wu Liang grabbed Xiao Chen, who was moving forward, and admonished: "Lord Wang, Ye Zhichu has already had a holiday with us, and when he enters the city at this time, I am afraid that Ye Zhichu has no plans." ”
Xiao Chen raised his head and took a deep look at Ye Zhichu who was drinking alone on the city tower, it happened that Ye Zhichu also looked at Xiao Chen at this time, picked up the wine glass, Ye Zhichu smiled and saluted Xiao Chen.
Smiling slightly, Xiao Chen walked towards the city without looking back.
"Lord Wang......" Wu Liang wanted to persuade Xiao Chen again, but was interrupted by Ye Han shaking his head on the side.
Looking at Xiao Chen's back, Ye Han muttered: "The current Xiao Chen is no longer the Xiao Chen you knew before. ”
Wu Liang seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and said with a worried look on his face: "But I'm worried about what danger the prince will encounter." ”
Ye Han spread his hands and said, "Being in Yangnan City is the biggest danger. ”
After hearing this, Wu Liang pondered and seemed to feel that there was some truth, and immediately asked Ye Han, "Then what should we do now?" ”
Ye Han's gaze looked at the figure in the city tower with an extremely complicated look, and countless emotions flashed in his eyes in an instant, anger, sadness, sadness, and incomprehension. But it soon returned to normal.
"We're just waiting here."
……
It was the middle of the night, and the moon was extremely bright tonight, and the bright moonlight fell on the earth, illuminating the castle tower as bright as day.
Just like when he held a banquet in Tiger Roaring City, Ye Zhichu placed the wine table in the most dazzling place in the city tower.
There were a few side dishes on the table, a plate of peanuts, and two pots of wine, seeing Xiao Chen walking up to the city tower, Ye Zhichu smiled slightly, and made a gesture to Xiao Chen to sit down.
Xiao Chen naturally sat down, picked up a glass of wine, took a deep sip and said, "Lord Taishou, it seems that he likes to hold a banquet in the city tower." ”
Ye Zhichu got up slowly, his eyes looking into the empty distance.
"Because you stand tall, you can see far......"
