17 Chapter 17
This little general does not seem to be able to tan.
Zhao Pu's gaze swept over Fang Linyuan's tightly clutched clothes, and Fang Cai's white scenery still stayed in front of him for a moment.
The flesh and skin are tight and tenacious wrapped in bamboo-like bones, which should have been trained by spears for many years, not as strong as ordinary generals, but with a vigorous and vigorous power.
But it was very white, like a layer of snow falling on the blade, no wonder those alien barbarians called him "Jade Yama".
Zhao Pu's gaze paused, and then he came back to his senses under Fang Linyuan's vigilant gaze.
Somehow, he was a little weak-hearted, as if the vigilance in Fang Linyuan's eyes was not unreasonable.
He narrowed his eyes, then showed a faint smile, stepped forward and stretched out his hand to the maid beside him, "I'll come." ”
Fang Linyuan's eyes widened instantly.
And Zhao Pu took the underwear from the maid's hand under his forced gaze with a calm demeanor, and said to the maid, "You guys retreat first." ”
The maid covered her lips and smiled, and saluted the two of them quickly, and when she turned to retreat, she did not forget to take the other people in the bedroom with her.
Zhao Pu looked at Fang Linyuan.
I saw him with a sad look in his eyes, staring at the few people who were evading him.
Ah, the little general was betrayed by his men, and left him alone in the tiger's den.
The corners of Zhao Pu's mouth hooked slightly.
——
All ran away again.
Fang Linyuan gritted his teeth and watched a few of them run out, and gently pushed each other with an ambiguous expression, shocking that the girl didn't forget to pull up Yanting before leaving, and seemed to be whispering that Yanting was a nerd before going out.
Let's wait ...... Wait for the day when the truth is revealed! He's going to settle accounts with this group of betrayers!
Fang Linyuan was so angry that he grinded his teeth, and when he turned around, he saw Zhao Pu standing there looking at him without saying a word, as if he was smiling but not smiling, gloomy and compassionate, not knowing what he was thinking.
He still has the underwear in his hand.
“…… Can you not wear it? Fang Linyuan looked at it and asked weakly.
Zhao Pu didn't say anything, but handed the underwear forward.
That's not going to happen.
Thinking that this dead fox had never stopped until he reached his goal, Fang Linyuan sighed, pulled the clothes, turned his back, and neatly changed the robe on his body.
It's just that, a piece of clothing will never strangle him.
"If you have something, just say it, I'm in a hurry to enter the palace." He said as he changed his clothes.
But the moment he took off his robe, there was no movement behind him.
Until he changed all his clothes, he didn't hear Zhao Pu speak. Fang Linyuan was suspiciously about to turn his head to see what this person was doing, when he heard the other party's voice sounding behind him.
"It's ......"
Very light, but a little dumb, half a day without a follow-up.
"Huh?"
Fang Linyuan turned around and saw Zhao Pu's gaze fixed on his back. He pressed his shoulder blade down and saw that it was the old wound that lay across his back.
From his point of view, he couldn't see it completely, only one horn could be seen, like the tail of a sand scorpion.
Fang Linyuan paused.
Zhao Pu didn't mention it, he almost forgot about it.
This wound was inflicted when he was sixteen years old, when he first led his troops into battle alone. He went out of the city and fought the Turkic cavalry in close quarters, and the enemy's saber was so heavy and sharp that it slashed at his back as if his spine had been cut off by a horizontal knife.
Everyone said that if you take such a knife, you will definitely die. But at that time, he only remembered that the blood gushing out of the armor was wet, and in the sticky and hot blood, he turned around and shot off the head of the enemy general.
As for the pain, I don't remember, because on that day, his captured brother committed suicide in front of the yellow sand.
"That's what you say?" Fang Linyuan lowered his eyes, then smiled, and said lightly. "Yes, sabre cut."
He only grew up in Zhao Pu in the splendid pile, and the first time he saw such a scar, it was inevitable that it was a little fresh.
But he didn't know that such a long and terrifying scar on his back with such a muscular balance would sting people's eyes.
Zhao Pu behind him still didn't speak.
Fang Linyuan only thought that he had always been like this, and ignored people for some reason, so he didn't say much to him, turned around, and neatly put on the clothes that Zhao Pu gave him.
He turned his back to Zhao Pu, and he couldn't see the phalanges that he had tightened under his sleeves.
After changing into his underwear, he turned around and picked up the crown clothes that the stingers and others had hung on the shelf for him.
But I heard Zhao Pu ask at this time, "You are going to enter the palace now?" ”
Still with a little hardship that had not yet faded, Fang Linyuan didn't look back, just thought that he had drunk too strong tea before going out.
"Yes. Just now my subordinates sent a message saying that Naren Timur ......"
"Humiliate Chincha."
Zhao Pu stepped forward and stopped behind him: "I already know." ”
Hearing Zhao Pu say this, Fang Linyuan also saved the trouble of explaining to him: "I'll go to the palace first." When you have reached the hour, let the porter set you another carriage. ”
As he spoke, he reached for the robes on the shelf. But as soon as he picked up his clothes, a slender hand reached out and pressed the robe back to the shelf.
When he turned around, he saw Zhao Pu beside him looking at him quietly.
"Don't go." He said.
"What for?" Fang Linyuan frowned and asked him.
"That waste can't stop the Turkic horse, it's Zhao Jin's people who lose it, and it's the emperor's face that falls." Zhao Pu said. "What does it have to do with you?"
"Why has nothing to do with me!" Fang Linyuan said hurriedly.
Zhao Pu was unmoved, only looked at him quietly, his hand still pressed on his crown robe.
Fang Linyuan was really anxious.
His lips were pursed, and his eyes looking at Zhao Pu were unprecedentedly serious and sharp: "Do you know what contract to sign for peace talks?" He dares to enter the capital today, and tomorrow he dares to let the emperor marry the princess. He dared to be so arrogant when he was defeated, wouldn't he have to let me make a big announcement of the Hajj pilgrimage and cut the city and lose the land? ”
"The emperor will not allow himself to lose face like this." Zhao Pu said.
"Do you think that Timur would not dare to be rude in front of the temple?" Fang Linyuan said. "The victorious country has been humiliated, if the courtiers and the people know about it, how should Your Majesty deal with it?"
He didn't want to talk nonsense with Zhao Pu anymore, so he reached out and snatched his crown clothes.
But Zhao Pu not only didn't give an inch, but also pinched his wrist and pulled him in front of him.
"So, you're going to go and scare him personally?" Zhao Pu stared at him and asked.
The two of them were too close, and Zhao Pu's slightly cool, osmanthus scented breath fell on his face.
Fang Linyuan's back was numb, as if he was spitting out cold spider silk from his mouth.
Fairy silk kills.
He hurriedly retreated to hide, but Zhao Pu didn't force him to stay, and let go of his hand with his strength.
When Fang Linyuan raised his head again, he saw Zhao Pu looking at him faintly, and a pair of eyes looked straight into his eyes.
"He is the king, you are the minister, no one can cross him and solve the trouble for him." He heard Zhao Pu say this.
"Fang Linyuan, what is the sin of trespassing, you should know better than me."
——
This is the first time Zhao Pu has told so much nonsense to others.
Even he didn't know why.
He just came to Fuguangxuan, but he got the news from the palace and wanted to inform him in advance.
For example, what Lin Yuan got was more that the letter sent by the palace said that after Naren Timur entered the palace, he refused to kneel down and worship on the top of the Golden Palace, and he reluctantly gave up until the emperor exempted him. After he retreated, from He Hongfang to the three princes, they were all reprimanded by the emperor, and even Sang Zhixin, who was waiting outside the palace, did not escape.
Zhao Pu originally came to remind Fang Linyuan and asked him to be careful during the banquet, but unexpectedly, Fang Linyuan was in a hurry to enter the palace, as if he was humiliated by the Turks.
According to Zhao Pu's character, he should be somewhat sarcastic.
But he didn't know why he had some mixed feelings.
Xu is the knife wound on Fang Linyuan's back, just by looking at the terrifying scar, you can see how deep the bones were that day; Maybe it was the fiery seriousness in Fang Linyuan's eyes when he was arguing with him, as if the contract was really related to his life and death.
Zhao Pu should doubt him, after all, he has always been cautious, and he never believed that there would be clean hearts in the world.
But he didn't, but with the patience he had never had in his life, he explained the benefits and disadvantages to Fang Linyuan.
However, when he saw Fang Linyuan coming back to his senses after being stunned, with a clear but confused look on his face, he was actually a little irritable.
Is the suspicion and suspicion between monarchs and ministers, and the accusations and frames between colleagues, something rare? It is the bricks and stones used to build the ground of the imperial city, which are all poured out of calculation and mud and blood.
Who doesn't live in it, survive in the swamp of gold and jade, pinch each other's dirty and ugly souls under the skin of pretentious camouflage, and let each other be their own ghosts.
But for the first time, he felt dirty.
All these things that were as commonplace as air to him fell on Fang Linyuan's eyes, but they seemed to stain his eyes.
Zhao Pu was a little annoyed.
"Thanks for the reminder." After a long time, he heard Fang Linyuan say to him.
Zhao Pu thought that the Dog Emperor had never been eventful, and he should have died a long time ago.
He hummed and turned to leave.
Fang Linyuan didn't keep him, and it wasn't until late afternoon that the two met again in front of the carriage.
Zhao Pu saw that Fang Linyuan was obviously a little absent-minded.
The marquis's crown suit was very flattering to him, and the indigo-blue wide-sleeved brocade robe made his complexion pale.
But his expression was not vivid, still as lifeless as when he left.
When helping him into the carriage, too, God did not give up, and did not even glare at him as he usually did.
It's just that he doesn't let the emperor's gossip, as for it?
Zhao Xuan, who was sitting in the carriage, furrowed his brows, and the sound of horses' hooves and wheels outside the window became more and more dead silence in the carriage, and the silence made him more and more uncomfortable.
How can a person who is a general still be so vulnerable.
His hand resting on his lap tapped impatiently, and at that moment, a small object slipped from his sleeve and into his palm.
The hard, very small, is the osmanthus candy he carries with him for cleaning up his mouth after drinking.
It is said that sweets can paralyze people's nerves and make people stupidly feel happy.
Zhao Pu paused for a moment and turned his head out the window.
His hand was under his sleeve and stuffed the osmanthus candy into Fang Linyuan's hand.
"Give." His tone was cold, and he cherished words like gold.
And next to him, Fang Linyuan, who had been rubbed by the begonia embroidery on the back of his shirt since he went out, was so uncomfortable that his expression was stiff and he was too lazy to speak, and he was suddenly stuffed with something.
As soon as he looked down, he saw that it was a piece of sugar.
Fang Linyuan looked at Zhao Pu suspiciously, but saw that Zhao Pu still looked like he was ignoring him.
And the candy lay quietly in his hand, hard and cold.
This is...... What kind of MeSign container is stuffed?
