In this way, on the day of King Rui's birthday, the whole capital was very lively, and it was only the next day that it returned to quiet, Du Ruo and Ye Yuanzhou still didn't go out much, so they stayed in the general's mansion.

Ye Yuanzhou looked at the art of war and practiced weapons when he had nothing to do, Du Ruo was also pleased that there were many books in the general's mansion, although he knew that the general was a military general at a glance, and the ancient classics at home were just for decoration, just like the sword on the waist of the Wenchen, but the new books were cheaper than Du Ruo, which made her look at them with relish.

About the third day after King Rui's birthday, Ye Qinglin never showed up.

Du Ruo felt very puzzled, if he said that his grandfather did a big birthday, so he needed to stay there to help Zhang Luo, this is actually a bit too much for a grandson, but after the big birthday was done, there was no one in sight until now, which was beyond the normal range.

She asked Ye Yuanzhou if he was worried about his brother, and Ye Yuanzhou shook his head: "It's not a matter of worrying about it now, no matter whether others have anything to do or not, there will be his share in the next storm." ”

Du Ruo sighed and had to admit that Ye Yuanzhou was right.

As a result, in the afternoon of this day, a person suddenly came to the General's Mansion, but this person was not Ye Qinglin, but Du Ruo's father, Du Zhong.

"Daddy?!" Du Ruo saw Du Zhong, who was brought in by the servants of the General's Mansion and looked like a dusty man, and was stunned on the spot, "You didn't stay in Yuzhou, why did you come to the capital?"

And how do you know that I am in the capital, in the mansion of the hussar general? ”

Du Zhong was in a hurry and had a sad face, but when he saw Du Ruo who was good, he was also stunned, and his face changed on the spot.

"It's broken! There's deception in this! He furrowed his brows and said to Du Ruo and Ye Yuanzhou, "I was fine at home in Yuzhou, but I got the news sent by the Songzhou garrison, saying that Du Ruo entered Beijing with Captain Ye, but there was an accident and he was seriously injured.

So let me hurry up and maybe get a chance to see my daughter for the last time.

I thought at the time, this news is indeed reliable, Ye Duwei is the highest military general of the Songzhou garrison, this kind of thing has news back, and it is completely reasonable for the soldiers of the Songzhou garrison to come and report the news.

So I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to see my daughter for the last year, so I hurriedly set off from home and rushed over non-stop.

I never thought that as soon as I entered the door, I would see Ruo'er being good, then what else could I say, isn't this just fooled! ”

"Dad, then I'll find a car now, and I'll send you away quickly!" After hearing this, Du Ruo also knew that his father had fallen on someone else's path and had been deceived into coming to the capital, so he was in a hurry and hurriedly said to his father.

Du Zhong was a little calmer than her at this time, looked at Ye Yuanzhou, and asked: "Ye Duwei, although this capital is not your territory, you are much more familiar with it than our father and daughter, I think it is better for you to make up your mind about this matter." ”

Ye Yuanzhou nodded: "Since my uncle is already here, I think it's better not to leave again."

Although it is said that it is obvious that you have come all the way to the capital, it is obviously a plan, but since we have come, we are all under the noses of others at this time, and we will immediately find a car to send you away, and we don't know what to do on the way.

In contrast, the General's Mansion is a place that can shelter from the wind and rain after all, and if they want to do something to the people in the General's Mansion, they have to weigh and measure.

Replaced by barren mountains and mountains, then any reason for finding any beast infested and the road slippery on a rainy day can make a person disappear silently. ”

Du Ruo was shocked, she prides herself on being calm on weekdays, but when it comes to her father at a critical moment, she still inevitably cares about it, and she only thinks that her father will be safe when he leaves, but she ignores that since the other party deceived her father, there must be some purpose, if this purpose is not realized, how can it be easy for people to run away!

For those who like to use yin tricks, if they can't use it for themselves, isn't it the safest thing to cut the grass and eradicate the roots!

Since he decided to stay, Du Zhong hurried over all the way, tired and tired, Ye Yuanzhou hurriedly beckoned the servants to prepare a large bucket of hot water for him to wash away the dust of his body, and asked the cook to prepare a sumptuous meal to welcome the distinguished guests who came from afar.

Du Zhong has never been the kind of old-fashioned person who sticks to the rules, he is just an idle cloud and a wild crane, so he didn't fake politeness with Ye Yuanzhou, took a comfortable bath, changed into a clean body, and then accepted the hospitality generously.

"I really didn't eat a hot meal on the way, I was afraid that I wouldn't see my daughter for the last time, so I carried a few pieces of bread in my arms, and I took two bites when I was hungry and drank some water when I was thirsty." After Du Zhong padded his stomach, he returned to his former indifference, "Now that I think about it, it's a big loss!" I knew it was a trap, so why should I suffer that sin! Isn't it good to eat and drink along the way? ”

"Dad, if you had known this was a trap, you wouldn't have hurried here!" Du Ruo couldn't cry or laugh.

Du Zhong waved his hand: "Definitely!" Since the other party has calculated this step, then I am the chess piece on the chessboard that must be moved.

I won't go by myself, and the people behind all this will have to find a reason to take my pawn away.

Both horizontally and vertically have to go, and if you can't dodge, then there's no need to be so passive.

Walking by yourself is much more comfortable than being caught. ”

"Uncle is very right!" Ye Yuanzhou very much agreed with Du Zhong's statement, "It's just that you have come all the way, are you still doing well?" ”

"Everything is normal on the road, but after arriving in the capital, it is a little abnormal." Du Zhong knew what Ye Yuanzhou wanted to ask, "I didn't notice anything unusual along the way here, otherwise I wouldn't have been so anxious."

It wasn't until I entered the capital that I felt that something was wrong, but I was too anxious at the time, so I couldn't take care of anything, but now I feel at ease, and when I think about it, I feel that there are many strange things.

When I first entered the capital, except that I felt that there were more guards at the city gate, there was nothing else wrong, after all, it was an important place in the capital, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with having more officers and soldiers guarding the city.

After entering the city, it was lively and bustling everywhere, and people came and went on the streets, and when I went to the general's mansion to find it, I saw most of the mansions of dignitaries and nobles along the way.

Not only is it sparsely populated and quiet, but the door of the house is tight, and every door is guarded by soldiers, which makes me a little surprised.

I don't know if all the high-ranking families in the capital are also in this battle on weekdays? ”
