Chapter 9 The green lotus gradually rounded people's thoughts
"It's inconvenient to have long hair in the barracks, mainly because it's inconvenient to wash it after being dyed with blood, so it's simply cut, and it looks a lot darker, and there are a lot of scars, and it's ugly to death. ”
Situ Yilan rubbed her hair and said helplessly, although she has changed a lot in the barracks, everyone has a love for beauty, not to mention that she is a woman after all.
Ning Que looked at her playful little boy's appearance, her mood was very gentle, and she said, "In my eyes, you are the best looking now, better looking than ever before." ”
Situ Yilan said: "Why do you want to say such things to make me happy. ”
Ning Que smiled, didn't explain, and said, "What are you going to do next?"
Situ Yilan said: "The military department is going to send me to Gushan County. ”
As soon as these words came out, the room became much quieter. Ning Que knew that the imperial court sent her to Gushan County, which was to take advantage of General Yunlu's prestige in the army to divide and subdue the Hua family's power in the army, after all, Hua Shanyue was dead, and Li Yu was grateful to the Hua family, so he had to carry out this work.
Situ Yilan returned from Northern Xinjiang, and she knew the inside story of Hua Shanyue's death better than anyone else, and knew that it was inseparable from Ning Que in front of her, but she didn't say anything, but said, "I want to see Your Highness." ”
"She doesn't see you?" Ning Que was a little surprised, with the status of General Yunlu's mansion, coupled with the relationship between Situ Yilan and Li Yu, it should be very easy for her to see the palace.
Situ Yilan nodded.
Ning Que didn't expect Li Yu to be even more self-contained than he imagined, and after a moment of silence, he said: "I'll give you a waist card, and you can enter the palace by yourself at night and talk to her more." ”
The gathering of classmates in the academy is now a situation like this, so naturally there is no shouting for dancing girls to accompany them, but the venue is still extremely lively, and Ning Que came to the top floor to meet Jian and everyone.
Shui Zhu'er made a bowl of rice balls, put it on the table in front of him, and then naturally sat down beside him, stretched out his hand to hold his arm, even if the Jian family on the other side frowned slightly, she was also smiling and refused to let go, now she has long been out of the country, but she is still used to living in the building, and everyone is naturally not as in awe of Jane as they were back then, but Ning Que can only take the soft enjoyment as a test.
Xiaocao stood behind Jane's family, snorting with some annoyance, as time passed, the little girl gradually grew up, especially after Jane's family handed over the singing and dancing to her, she matured rapidly, although there was still childishness between her eyebrows, her actions were extremely neat, like this little daughter's attitude at this time, it was extremely difficult to see it in her The reason why this is the case, or because of Sangsang, she doesn't like to see other women close to Ning Que.
Jane said: "I want you to come over today, to discuss the matter of the Light Festival, Xiling Temple asked the red sleeves to go to the dance, I don't know what the academy thinks." ”
Ning Que said: "It's all up to Aunt Jane to decide, if you think it's okay to go, then if you don't want to go, you won't go, since the peace agreement has been signed, there is nothing to be done in the Xiling Temple." ”
Jane looked at him and said meaningfully: "The Light Festival is the grandest festival recorded in the Xiling Sect, and it is rumored that only Haotian will hold a miracle, what I don't understand is why the Xiling Temple wants to open the Light Festival, if it is to celebrate the victory of this war, they will only become the laughing stock of the world." ”
Ning Que asked thoughtfully, "Then what do you mean?"
Jane said, "It's okay to go and see it, or I can help you see it." ”
Ning Que said: "I'm just worried that the road is not smooth. ”
Jane looked him in the eye and asked, "Can you keep them safe?"
Ning Que was silent for a moment and then said, "Even if I can't, I think someone can." ”
Shui Zhu'er and Xiaocao obviously heard the conversation between Ning Que and Jian, but they were depressed, but they couldn't understand what they were talking about, who could be?
Ning Que rode the black carriage and left the Red Sleeve Move.
Walking a short distance through the street, the curtain of the car moved slightly, and Xiang Yuxian got into the car. He took out a few large envelopes from his arms, lined them up with the faint light in the carriage, and whispered: "Until now, the Heavenly Oracle Divine Seat is still empty, and there is no clue who is most likely to take over. ”
In this war, the people who were placed in the south gate of Haotian Dao in the temple and the people hidden in the temple in the Tang Kingdom all played a very important role. The hundreds of spies planted in the temple by the Tang Dynasty attacked at the same time, assassinating several rune masters at the cost of their lives, but there were still many eyeliners in the temple.
Since the beginning of the peace talks in the early spring, those people who were hidden in the peach mountain began to send back all kinds of news through the Guò Tianshu Office and the secret attendants, and Chang'an City knew the news of the death of the Heavenly Oracle Divine Seat, even earlier than Ye Hongyu, who was in Qinghe County at the time.
Ning Que thought about the mountain peach huā mentioned in the previous information, and was silent.
"According to the analysis of the Heavenly Throne, Cheng Lixue should be the most likely person to take over the Heavenly Oracle Constellation, but the inheritance of the Heavenly Oracle Constellation seems to have something special, so his current position is very embarrassing. ”
Xiang Yuxian inherited his father's merchant qualities, and although he didn't know how to practice and didn't seem to have any outstanding abilities, he was able to find the most valuable information from the reports of the Heavenly Pivot and the Secret Guard.
He looked at the file in his hand and said: "The thousand-year-old lamp in the Temple of Light has indeed gone out, but the people who want to spy on the cause have died inexplicably, so no one knows the reason, and the dozen or so priests mentioned in the previous information have confirmed that they have gone crazy, and there is no new news other than these." ”
Ning Que frowned slightly, looking a little dissatisfied.
Brown Youxian said helplessly: "The garbage in the temple has been turned over, but it has been processed, and I can't find any signs, and there is no way to analyze them." ”
Ning Que asked, "Stables?"
Brown Youxian shook his head and said, "I didn't find it. ”
Ning Que thought for a while, and then asked, "How much wine?"
If it were an ordinary intelligence officer, he might not really pay attention to the changes in the number of daily necessities in these temples, but Xiang Yuxian was different, and said, "It has increased a lot. ”
Ning Que's expression became a little solemn, and he asked, "Is there a horse pregnant?"
The horses in the Xiling Temple are all war horses of the apologists, and the stallions will definitely be castrated, so his question seems a little inexplicable, and Kai Youxian can't understand it.
"There is no return. ”
Crotch Yuxian took the last large envelope with his finger and said, "There is a strange thing, our people in the temple once saw a pot of uneaten porridge in the stable, and thought that you mentioned it once, so he collected some of the remaining porridge in the basin. ”
Ning Que took the envelope and poured out the leftover porridge inside, the sour smell suddenly permeated the entire carriage, and the crotch Yuxian couldn't help frowning slightly and covering his nose.
Ning Que's expression at this time was extremely solemn, as if he didn't smell a bad smell at all, holding the tip of the knife and plucking it carefully in the stinky leftover porridge, and finally saw a black mane.
"Thank you. ”
He looked at the black mane and said silently in his heart.
The black carriage came to Yanming Lake, and Xiang Youxian got out of the carriage and disappeared into the streets and alleys by night. Ning Que got out of the car, stood in front of the courtyard gate and was silent for a moment, and said to Wang Jingluo: "Get ready, you may have to go far away." ”
Wang Jingluo took off his straw hat, put away the reins, and said, "You have really made a decision? You must know that this time it is no longer ten miles outside the city, but a thousand miles of dangerous land." ”
Ning Que said: "After all, you have to go to see it, and it's better to let others see it than to see it yourself." ”
Yanming Lake at night reflects more than ten lights in the house, just like the night dome today, the stars in the sky were once robbed of too much brilliance by the bright moon, and it is very lonely.
Ning Que rowed a boat on the surface of the lake at will, the side of the boat rubbed a few new green branches from time to time, the lotus huā has not yet opened, but the lotus leaves have begun to reunite.
The lotus leaves are gradually rounding, but people can't be reunited, looking at these lotus planted by Sangsang himself, he once again remembered the sentence that the drunkard left to himself: Every death in the world is a reunion after a long absence.
He never understood how Haotian could find drunkards and butchers in the world, so he always checked and obtained many clues, which all faintly pointed to the person he once thought was the most unlikely.
His eyes turned from the green lotus on the side of the boat to the Yanming Mountain on the other side of the lake, as if he saw the dead girl holding a black umbrella, standing in the wind and snow and singing to himself.
If it's really you, why don't I feel it, are you no longer my destiny? You gave me back the carriage and iron arrows, but took away the big black horse and the big black umbrella, do you really want to break up?
But the question is, how can it be so easy to split up? Your name is still on my household register, your address is still Lao Bizhai, and your silver ticket is still buried in the tomb, how about I send it to you?
The night breeze of early summer gently brushed Yu Que's face and blew out a meaningful smile: Since every death in the world is a reunion after a long absence, let us meet again.
Early the next morning, the famous black carriage, passing through the heat of the bun shop, drove into the palace under the eyes of many people and Yulin Jun, and never came out.
After this situation lasted for a few days, Gong sent a lot of speculations, no one knew what Ning Que was doing in the palace, even the ministers of the imperial court did not know, only that he did not leave Chang'an City.
The eyes of the Xiling Temple in Chang'an City began to be vigilant, they paid a great price, two maidservants died in the crotch house, and they finally heard some news.
In the palace of the small building of the ground, from time to time there is a dull knocking sound, after the imperial study at night, you can still see the lights, all kinds of rare pestles, through the arrangement of the household department, a steady stream of from the counties into Chang'an City, one evening, someone saw a strong man carrying a hammer into the palace.
When this information was sent back to Momoyama, the Xiling Shrine came to a shocking conclusion that the academy was trying to transform the Shocking God Array, but was this really the case?
