Chapter Twenty-Six: It is about the commander of the Suzaku Gate, Bai Wu
In the Molinwei military camp, Shen Jiayi and Zhao Ke'er had already drunk the two jars by pushing the cup and changing the lamp. The two jars of wine just aroused Shen Jiayi's addiction to alcohol, anyway, if you drink it, you will be punished and punished, so it is better to have a good time. So the Shen family turned out two jars of wine under their bed together and put them down in front of her.
Zhao Ke'er looked at the wine hidden by the Shen family in front of him and sneered, and teased: "Drinking is not allowed in the army. Having said that, his hand still honestly lifted the wine seal, "I thought that Captain Shen was a person who strictly abides by military regulations." ”
When the Shen family heard this, not only did they not get angry, but laughed: "I think that when we were in Guanbei before, the general would pull us to make wine and drink. It's just that when I returned to the capital, in order not to be tongue-in-cheek, I forbade alcohol. ”
As soon as the Shen family was full for themselves, so was Zhao Keer, and the two drank it all after touching the bowl. Zhao Ke'er didn't bring spirits, but Shen Jiayi's yes, mixed and drunk, the cold wind outside the camp tent blew, and he was in a trance for a while.
The moon had reached the top of their heads, and there were seven or eight empty jars scattered around the two of them.
Shen Jiayi hiccuped: "Have you seen the hundred or so soldiers who were teased by you today?" ”
Zhao Keer held the wine jug and nodded with a red face. Shen Jiayi suddenly felt a little sad: "There are still two hundred in the capital, but do you know." When we first arrived in Kanbei, there were 100,000 soldiers. After speaking, Shen Jiayi didn't need a bowl, picked up the wine jug and drank it to his mouth, "Beiguan has been two years and four months, and only three hundred of the 100,000 soldiers have been saved. The rest of the soldiers couldn't even go home with their bones. The sword you bend today may save the life of a soldier on the battlefield. ”
Zhao Ke'er listened to what Shen Jiayi said, and suddenly felt a little sad.
"The war was finally over, and the soldiers could have returned to the countryside to marry wives and have children with their military salaries in exchange for their lives, and to live a normal life. But they were unwilling to leave the general, and came to the imperial capital from Guanbei. Shen Jiayi suddenly stood up and came to Zhao Ke'er, looking at her with a frown, "Molin Guard, I think you are a princess, let you, don't care about you." But why do you thou mock them? Even the generals, even Your Majesty are reluctant, why are you teasing them! ”
The last sentence, Shen Jiayi almost shouted, and only after finishing speaking, did he lower his voice.
"Just because you're a princess?"
He looked at her like that, and she couldn't read the meaning in his eyes. But the picture of teasing the soldiers today is vivid, and those rough men, even if they are teased, some are laughing happily, and some are scratching their heads. She thought they didn't mind, but she forgot that they had also been on the battlefield, they were all people who had shed blood and even almost lost their lives, and they were Yu Yi's last 300 soldiers.
Zhao Ke'er was red-eyed and a little moved.
But Shen Jiayi drank his head and began to sing and dance in the tent. Zhao Ke'er looked at such a funny person in front of him and laughed again, but the tears in the corners of his eyes still slipped down secretly.
On the second day, Zhao Keer seemed to be a different person, although he still did not participate in the training of the soldiers, but he no longer teased the soldiers, but poured water for the soldiers, helped the chef in the dining room, and behaved a lot. It's just that Shen Jiayi still drank too much and didn't remember what happened last night at all.
The days go by like this, Yu Yi and Bai Jiangyi are in the Tongcha Mansion and Ding'an every day, and they still eat together and walk together at night, even if the two stay together every day, they still have a lot to say. The Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are still anxious for King Lin's wedding, as always. Nacai, ask for the name, Najib, Najib, Nazheng, please meet. Now that I have found a good day, I will wait for Bai Jiangyi's wedding dress and the Ministry of Rites to prepare everything in person.
It all happened too suddenly for both of them. One is a young general in Guanbei, the first king with a different surname in Qingyang. One is a rebellious woman who is bullied at home. Two people who were completely unrelated were tied together by a marriage letter from the emperor. He felt that every time he met her, she was glowing, and he couldn't help but want to be closer to her, knowing that she was not doing well at home, so he wanted to take her out of that home. She also wanted to escape from that home at first, but in the process of getting along, she found that she also had different feelings for him. The young general beside him is too good to himself, so good that he is in a dream. Many times, Bai Jiangyi told himself that if it was really a dream, could he not wake up.
Although neither of them mentioned marriage, and they didn't know how to face each other after getting married, they were both looking forward to the marriage.
Shen Xuan and Wanrong manage the orchestra and the account room, both of which have their own things to do. I'm also busy every day. Shen Mushu was also happy to see his daughter doing things seriously.
In the Molinwei military camp, Shen Jiayi and Zhao Ke'er got along much better. Although Her Royal Highness the princess still calls Yu Yi every day, she is also honest. Slowly, I started to participate in training, although I still practiced until I ran normally. General Mo Lin was also happy to see that there was such a pistachio in the barracks, because it was much more lively.
It's just a ghost market case, Yu also asked Zheng Bingzhou to secretly arrest the people in the ghost market, and there will always be killers who are one step ahead of Zheng Bingzhou, and there are several times when Zheng Bingzhou arrives, only cold corpses are left at the scene. Nearly 20 days later, things took a turn for the worse.
Although the first snow has not yet arrived, the dew that freezes outside every day tells everyone that it is winter. Bai Jiangyi finally had a better reason to sleep lazy, every time Ah Ruan came to call her, a sentence that was cold could make Ah Ruan impossible to refute.
It wasn't until nearly noon that Bai Jiangyi got up slowly after a full night's sleep, and met Ah Ruan, who was holding a food box, in Mengkou.
"Miss, you're finally up at last." Ah Ruan raised the food box in his hand a little higher, so that his own young lady could see it, "Today, His Highness ordered the kitchen to make ginger noodles, which can not only warm the body but also prevent wind and cold, and His Royal Highness also specially ordered to add more of your favorite shrimp, you can eat more." ”
Ah Ruan's smile was full of punctuality, Bai Jiangyi also knew Yu Yi's intentions, and when he opened the food box, he felt a lot warmer when he saw the fragrant ginger noodles inside.
"What about Your Highness?"
Ah Ruan took the food box into the room and put it on the table, and replied while sorting out the food box: "Your Highness just received the letter, saying that you are going to the military camp, let me tell you and leave in a hurry." ”
You have to report when you travel, and Bai Jiangyi also blushed slightly when she heard this.
When he walked into the room and sat at the table, Ah Ruan had already put all the things on the table, and finally took out a hand warmer from the food box: "Ao, Miss Ao, there is this." ”
Bai Jiangyi took it from Ah Ruan's hand, the hand warmer was copper-yellow, and there was a plane tree painted on the stove, which reminded her of the one at home. The charcoal has been added to the hand warmer, and Bai Jiangyi holds it in his hand at just the right temperature.
"This was also sent by His Highness?" Bai Jiangyi asked.
Ah Ruan said "um" and said, "Your Highness has also prepared charcoal for you from pine wood and camphor trees, which will have a fragrance after being burned into charcoal over a small fire." In addition, there is charcoal from the sandalwood tree, which His Highness allows you to use when you sleep at night, which can calm your nerves. ”
After finishing speaking, Ah Ruan sat down opposite Bai Jiangyi and looked at the things that Yu Yi had prepared on the table, and said with one hand on his cheek, "Your Highness is really good to you." ”
Bai Jiangyi didn't speak, but just held the hand warmer in his arms with his left hand, and picked up chopsticks to eat noodles with his right hand. The ginger noodles in front of him were still steaming, so hot that they couldn't eat it directly, Bai Jiangyi blew the noodles, looking at the spread of heat, Bai Jiangyi seemed to suddenly think of something: "Is Your Highness in a hurry when you go out?" ”
Ah Ruan said: "Yes, by the time Lin Bo returned to the mansion with his cloak, he was gone." ”
Bai Jiangyi nodded when he heard this, lowered his eyes and smiled quietly.
In the Molinwei barracks, Yu Yi quickly arrived at the gate of the barracks and saw Shen Jiayi waiting for him. Yu Yi got off the horse and handed over the horse to the soldiers, and Shen Jiayi also greeted him.
"What about people?"
The two walked to the barracks together, Shen Jiayi was very serious, and said, "I'm temporarily locked in the introspection room." ”
The soldiers of Zhenbei Hou also have their own military rules, and if they make mistakes, they will be locked up in the introspection room for self-examination, and in order to prevent the soldiers from escaping, the construction is quite solid. It's just that Mo Linwei doesn't have such a rule, so the introspection room has also become a temporary prison.
The two soldiers at the door of the introspection room saluted Yu Yi, and Yu Yi nodded in response. Shen Jiayi continued: "Bingzhou is already inside, you can just go in, I'll guard outside." ”
Yu Yi let out an "um" and walked into the introspection room.
"Brother Zilin is here! Where, where, where! ”
As soon as the Shen family stood still, they heard Zhao Ke'er's voice, and when he walked outside, he saw two Molin guards blocking Zhao Ke'er. Since entering Mo Linwei, Zhao Keer has never worn the girl's clothes, and has always worn Mo Linwei's exclusive black marching uniform for convenience. All of Mo Linwei's clothes are comfortable and reliable, so they don't look as good as other military uniforms, but they have a different heroic spirit when worn on Zhao Keer.
"Oh, don't stop me, I'll take a look." Zhao Ke'er and Mo Linwei are also comrades-in-arms now, so naturally they won't be too much to them, so their tone is also full of discussion.
As soon as the Shen family saw this, they immediately stepped forward to stop it: "My Royal Highness the princess, don't make trouble, the general has something to do inside." ”
My Highness the Princess.
Being called by the Shen family, Zhao Ke'er blushed slightly, but immediately returned to normal: "Your Royal Highness, princess, be careful that I slap your mouth." ”
At this time, Shen Jiayi was also in a hurry to take Zhao Ke'er away, and he didn't notice that he used Meng Lang a little bit.
"Good, good, palm." As soon as the Shen family spoke, he picked up Zhao Ke'er in his hand and walked out.
In the introspection room, Zheng Bingzhou was sitting behind the table, and the person opposite him was tied to the cross, but even if he was tied to it, he lowered his head, bent his back, and couldn't see clearly.
When Zheng Bingzhou saw Yu Yi, he immediately got up and saluted: "General." ”
Yu Yi let out a "hmm", raised his hand and put down Zheng Bingzhou's fist-hugging hand, looked at the person on the cross and asked, "What's the situation now?" ”
"Phew..."
Before Zheng Bingzhou could speak, the man on the cross spoke first, raised his head with difficulty and spat on the two.
Yu Yi took a few steps forward, and there was only a small window in the introspection room, and Yang Gu shone on the person's face through the small window. Through the messy hair, Yu Yi finally saw his face clearly, and his sunken eye sockets seemed to be able to see through people's eyes, wasn't it the guide he met in the ghost market that night.
"What a coincidence." Yu Yi smiled coldly, so cold that it was creepy.
At this time, Zheng Bingzhou also walked to Yu Yi's side, pointed to the passer-by, and said, "This person is not a guide at all, just the eyeliner of the gentle incense owner." As soon as the owner appeared that day, he delivered the news. ”
Yu Yiyan raised his hand and grabbed the hair of the passer-by so that he could see himself. The guide had a calm expression, and there was no panic at all about being caught.
"What's your name?"
"Xu Si!" The guide was caught like this, unable to speak, and it took a long time for these two words to pop out.
Yu Yi let go of his hand and returned to the table and sat down. Looking at Zheng Bingzhou's interrogation records, he asked quietly, "San'er is your brother?" ”
Xu Si didn't speak.
Yu Yi was not in a hurry, and after reading all the interrogation records, he walked in front of Xu Si again before he spoke: "San'er was not killed by me. ”
Xu Si, who had been silent and had been quiet, immediately became irritable when he heard Yu Yi's words. The whole person struggled on the cross, trying to break free from the bondage.
"You fart, he said that San'er died in the stable of Linwangfu, and the waist card is also on you, who else can you kill if you don't kill it!"
Yu Yi's eyes instantly turned cold, and he raised his hand and pinched Xu Si's neck: "Who is 'he' you are talking about?" ”
Xu Si closed his mouth again and stopped talking, and Yu Yi also increased his strength. Xu Si, who was choked, just held his breath, his face flushed, and he trembled. The longer it passed, the weaker Xu Si's reaction became, slowly rolling his eyes and opening his mouth to absorb a trace of air.
Yu Yi sneered, maintained such strength, and said: "You still have one last chance, the next time, I can guarantee that you will not survive." Oh, by the way, I didn't kill San'er, and by the time I returned to Linwangfu, he was already dead. ”
After Yu Yi finished speaking, Xu Si, who had originally rolled his eyes, also looked at Yu Yi with wide eyes, his eyes full of unacceptability and doubt.
"Three..."
Yu Yi let go of his hand slightly, and Xu Si could also breathe air.
"Two..."
Yu Yi loosened a little more, but this time Xu Si knew that letting go was to better exert his strength.
Yu Yi squinted, and the murderous aura revealed in his eyes finally broke through Xu Si's mental defense, and when Yu Yi opened his mouth to count one, he opened his mouth and said with difficulty.
"White ...... Bai Wu. ”
After speaking, Yu Yi let go of the hand that was holding Xu Si's neck. Hearing this name, Yu Yi admitted that he panicked, he knew that even if Bai Jiangyi hated Bai Wu again, if he personally grabbed Bai Wu and sent him to the guillotine, Bai Jiangyi would hate him.
Yu Yi still acted indifferent, raised his hand to grab Xu Si, who was breathing heavily, and asked, "Do you have any evidence?" ”
Xu Si looked at Yu Yi quietly and said, "Gulin Town, under the couch of my house, there is a letter between me and Bai Wu. See for yourself. ”
Yu Yi did not look back and did not speak. Zheng Bingzhou, who was behind him, understood: "The subordinates will set off immediately." ”
Yu Yi stopped Zheng Bingzhou, who was about to leave, and said, "Take a team of people and horses, be careful of an ambush." ”
Zheng Bingzhou clenched his fists and commanded: "Yes." ”
"And ......," Yu Yi hesitated, "Don't tell anyone until the matter is clarified." ”
Of course, he knew that what the general was talking about was Bai Jiangyi, so he naturally should go down.
Yu Yi looked at Xu Si quietly, wanting to see fear and lies in his eyes, but Xu Si looked at Yu Yi and laughed.
