Chapter 80: Civil Fort (1)

The weather is cold, and the air is frosty. The rut went on and on, as if it were out of reach, and before I knew it, I followed it for an hour, and in the distance I saw a large mound of earth, and a puff of smoke rose up!

Although this area is located in the inner Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, time flies, and it has long been deserted, especially after the wind and snow, it is white and boundless, and the Great Wall in the distance only has a rough outline, which is more and more empty and desolate. The snow was very thick, and luckily there were ruts and horseshoe prints on the main road, and I could follow it. The black smoke was so dazzling that I couldn't help but pass.

It turns out that behind the hillside is a lonely ancestral hall, low and dilapidated, the porch has collapsed, a tablet at the door, the handwriting is mottled, but it is vaguely visible that "the ancestral hall of the emperor is the emperor of Yingzong", the sixty-six ministers who were martyred in the civil engineering change set up the shrine of loyalty. This is the place where Lin Sheng asked me to come, and it is also the place that Ning Xi wants to come to, Tumu Fort! I feel desolate when I see it, what is she doing here as a ghost girl?

Thinking that this is also the place where the former Ming loyal ministers were martyred, it is necessary to pay homage. I jumped off my horse and walked into the ancestral hall, which was even more dilapidated. The statues of civil officials and military generals have long been crooked, falling off the color, and many spirit cards behind the curtain are also scattered everywhere, and the loyal tablet inscribed by the imperial pen of Yingzong in the middle is almost indistinguishable, which makes people inevitably sigh. I thought about the civil and engineering changes that Lin Sheng and Yin Zhou said last night, these loyal ministers and good generals in the past were loyal to this, they should have been respected by the Ming Dynasty and enjoyed the incense, but they never thought that for decades, it was so declining, they had knowledge under the spring, how did they feel? The world is unpredictable, what about manpower?

I sighed, bowed three times, walked out of the ancestral hall, looked at the white surroundings, and unconsciously imagined the situation in the past, and even curiously wanted to find the place where Emperor Yingzong was captured. A cold wind blew before I came back to my senses and remembered the black smoke. I'm here to see someone, but it's quiet, and I can't even see a bird.

The black smoke was behind the ancestral hall, and there were two lines of footprints and horseshoe prints on the snow, presumably someone was there. There was silence all around, I walked over the tracks, turned the corner of the wall, and suddenly heard the voice talking, I stopped, held my breath, and pressed the handle of the knife with my hand, listening to the other person.

"Miss, where are we going?" The voice was cold and dry.

"Big brother said he was going to Mongolia!" Listening to the voice of Yin Hua, I guess the other person is Li Duoduo, my heart couldn't help but tighten, and I heard Yin Hua say: "Mongolia is not a long-term land, we go there to see the movement, and we still have to go back." ”

Li Duoduo said: "This time, we have encountered a lot of imperial eagle dogs, and we can't be careless." The eldest prince spoke too casually, if it weren't for the presence of that Lin Gonggong, I am afraid that Jinyiwei would have already done it with us! ”

Yin Hua smiled and said, "Fourth brother, are you still afraid of those brocade guards?" ”

Li Duoduo smiled and said, "Those birdmen are all three-legged cats, what are you afraid of them?" If it weren't for the eldest prince who didn't let me hurt people easily, I would have done it early last night. "Presumably it's me, it seems that they are also defensive.

Yin Hua seemed to sigh and said, "We have rescued Brother Yu, and it is better to cause less trouble in other things!" Otherwise, it is difficult to speak in front of my father-in-law. Li Duoduo said: "What Miss said is that it's just that Jinyiwei may not let us go, and it's also strange, when we arrived here, they also came." Yin Hua said: "I don't feel that they may be aiming at us, as if they are going out of the jam with Naning Creek!" Li Duoduo smiled and said, "How could a young lady from the barren mountains and mountains here come here?" Yin Hua said: "It is rumored that this young lady is doing strange things, let's be careful!" Li Duoduo said: "What Miss said is that we are waiting for a meeting, and I don't know where the eldest prince and they have arrived!" ”

As he spoke, he walked towards me, and I couldn't turn around, so I had to walk out generously and smile: "We meet again!" Li Duoduo was taken aback, and when he saw that it was me, his face changed suddenly.

"Why are you here?" Li Duoduo asked, already reaching out to touch the hilt of the sword. I steadied myself and said, "What am I doing here?" Isn't it okay to bother you to do things? Who are you? Are you still afraid of being seen? Yin Hua, who was not far away, saw me, his eyes were bright, he listened to my question, giggled, and said: "Mr. Zhang, you are really a noble person who forgets things, so you should remember who I am!" "Although I think Yin Hua is the woman who kidnapped the edict that night, she said when she met and opened her mouth today, it still surprised me, this woman is really smart, I actually hope that she is not, and then I think about it, what are I going to do? Lin Sheng may be around, then Li Duoduo kept staring at me, I thought to myself: If you come to arrest them, wouldn't it be the best way to ask for hardships and drag them, and replied immediately: "I recognized you a long time ago, but there were so many people present last night, and I couldn't expose it." However, according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, you enter the palace without permission, attack the officials, and be beheaded according to the law. I advise you to get out of here quickly, or others will see you and there will be no way out!" ”

Yin Hua smiled like a flower, stretched out his hand and took out a token, and shook it at me: "This is a token to enter and exit the palace, and even the inner courtyard of the palace can be entered, and your piece has been returned to you." Do you think I'm allowed to go in? ”

I was speechless for a while, in fact, when I said these words, I also gave myself courage, but Yin Hua showed his waist card, I couldn't help but be shocked, thinking of Liao Jianzhong's words, there are their internal responses in the palace, not to mention what father-in-law they also mentioned. I steadied my mind, thought of the matter of the edict, and said: "You rob people, even if you are a relative of the emperor, you are also guilty!" ”

Yin Hua smiled again and said, "Imperial relatives? It's not a wine bag and a rice bag, this girl is not rare. But your little brother is loyal, can you really come to arrest me? I didn't answer, remembering that night, Xiaoma's father-in-law stopped Liao Jianzhong, there is no need to mention it, but Lin Sheng hasn't come forward yet, I don't know where he is, think about it or drag them down, pretended to sigh, and said: "Forget it, everyone was friends last night, and I don't need to do anything to you today!" The water of the well does not interfere with the water of the river, so let's go! ”

Yin Hua chuckled and said, "How can there be a person like you, if you come, you will drive us away!" It was the same last night in Wild Fox Ridge, it seems, this is your hospitality. ”

I smiled slightly and said, "I am a tolerance, so naturally I focus on business." Please bear with Miss Yin! ”

That Li Duoduo had been roasting the fire, and then he said: "It's still Mr. Yin's calculations, this kid will definitely follow, Miss, don't talk nonsense with him, kill him!" ”

Yin Hua said "Huh", and Li Duoduo suddenly burst out, and there was already an extra knife in his hand, and he slashed over.

I've been on guard against Li Duoduo, he slashed over, I dodged over, and the embroidered spring knife came out of the sheath and swept over. Li Duoduo jumped far away, and said with a cold smile: "You are on guard, but your Jinyiwei's skills are similar, it is not surprising, you use your housekeeping skills." ”

Yin Hua had seen my ability, although it was only a few moves, she glanced at me, came over and said, "Wait!" Are you alone? Mr. Zhang, what are you doing here? ”

How can I tell the purpose of my coming, I have learned her skills, this Li Duoduo does not seem to be an ordinary person, a hero does not suffer immediate losses, I smiled: "I was ordered to come to check the Xianzhong Temple, I don't want to meet you!" This guy is too polite, and if he doesn't agree with him, he will make a move, is it because I wanted to arrest you last night, it's too stingy! Yin Hua smiled and said: "Look at you yesterday who was dumbfounded, I really thought that if you were a tolerance, you would be invincible in the world, we just gave Gonggong Lin a face, today you came here, look at you have still seen a little bit of the world, it is said that there will be no other purpose, it is the daughter who arranged for you to come." These words are clearly excusing me, I am secretly happy in my heart, I am alone, how can I deal with them, just about to speak, there was a long howl in the distance, Li Duoduo immediately replied, presumably there are people not far away who echo them, and from far to near, echoing each other, and gradually to the vicinity.

Needless to say, those long whistles must have been echoed by their people, and I was nervous that I was alone here. Yin Hua seemed to understand me, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, where are you going?" She said, but stared at me.

I didn't expect Yin Hua to say this, I was overjoyed, and said, "That's natural, I was ordered to escort Miss Ningxi here, so naturally I have to investigate first." Yin Hua nodded and said, "It's okay, she will come in a while, I think we can wait for her in front." Batu is waiting for you to come, do you want to come along, it's warm there! ”
