Chapter 54: If You Don't Have a Golden Robe (2)

Heroic Sword Fun (2)

Coming out of Buzheng Fang, the two young men in cloth clothes wore robes and walked towards the Golden Light Gate with hats. Some of the wide, heavy robes contained two swords.

Taking advantage of the rain, before the unitary time (17 o'clock-19 o'clock), Xu Changan and Chai Xintong went out first.

They go out early so that they can act at the right time.

Xu Changan originally thought that even if he took this token, he would need to go through some inquiry, but what he didn't expect was that the soldier guarding the city took the token and didn't say a word to him, nor did he return the token to him, so he let him go directly.

Although the two of them had doubts in their hearts, they didn't think too much about it, anyway, they didn't interrogate, let alone make things difficult.

The moment the two left the city, there were two people standing at the head of the city, and behind them stood several soldiers respectfully.

"Old Guo, if you want to help them, you don't have to be so troublesome!" said one of them with a wry smile.

The old man called "Guo Lao" turned his head, looked at his colleagues around him, and said slowly: "I don't call it helping them, I call it doing business, I also want to see who the person behind the eldest prince is, making a fuss about marriage events, and I also want to see what their purpose is." ”

When the man heard this, he was shocked.

"Then what is the Holy Emperor's attitude towards this matter?"

Guo Lao took a deep look at the person around him, and the person hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to look at the old man with sharp eyes.

"Zhengwu, you've always been impartial before, what's the matter, you want to take sides?"

Xue Zhengwu's heart tightened, his face trembled, and he hurriedly explained to his boss Shang Shuling Guo Jinghui: "Guo Lao misunderstood, the emperor's family decided that no matter who becomes a holy emperor in the future, I will do whatever I need to do, just like now." ”

Guo Jinghui had a smile in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curved.

"If that's the case, then it's for the best. We are officials, for the officials of the Holy Dynasty, and we are in charge of the power given by the people, and we don't care who is the prince and who is the future emperor. Just remember that we are the officials of the Holy Court, and we are in charge of the power given by the people. Therefore, we should be plotting against thousands of people in the world, not to please one person in his Xuanyuan family. ”

Xue Zhengwu lowered his head.

"The students got it. ”

"Hey, among these six departments, as long as you and Chen Yunong of the household department are not impartial, I can rest assured that I will tell the two of you to do things. If one day, even you have made a choice, it is estimated that these six departments will also be cleaned, and the old man will not have the right to control these six parts. ”

"Guo Lao rest assured, Xia Guan will definitely not let Guo Lao down. ”

Guo Jinghui looked at him and smiled, and then looked at the two teenagers in their robes who disappeared at the end of the field of vision.

Xue Zhengwu followed Guo Jinghui's gaze, and the two figures before had turned into two points.

"Is it all arranged?"

Xue Zhengwu immediately replied: "It's arranged, I sent two people to accompany the bad handsome." ”

"Huh?" Guo Jinghui frowned.

"Don't you have five bad handsomes?"

Xue Zhengwu looked at this duplicitous Lord Shang Shuling, and immediately replied: "These five are each responsible for patrolling one side in Chang'an City, and they are all masters of the upper realm grandmaster, if the other party is just a grandmaster, that gluttonous Tang Zhengtang can deal with it, if it surpasses the existence of the grandmaster, it is useless for the five of them to go together." ”

Guo Jinghui didn't speak, and he knew very little about these cultivation matters. Back then, he was also visited by the prince surnamed Xu several times, and only then did he take charge of Shangshu Province, one of the three provinces. In this dynasty where the position of prime minister is not clearly stipulated, the three of them just lost the name of prime minister, but exercised the power of prime minister.

He just wanted to try his best to repay the kindness of the encounter.

"Then can we mobilize people above the grandmaster level?"

Xue Zhengwu's face was embarrassed, and he said in a low voice: "It is rumored that the Holy Emperor has only broken through to the Great Grandmaster not long ago, and the Worship Pavilion and the Confucius Temple have the existence of surpassing the Grandmaster, but with us, we don't have that power yet." ”

Looking at Guo Jinghui, whose expression was solemn and his brows were gradually wrinkled, Xue Zhengwu hurriedly said, "Then I will send out all the five bad handsomes?"

Guo Jinghui pondered for a while, and finally said: "That's it, let's do our best, isn't there still a Confucius Temple?"

"By the way, a few days ago, I heard someone say that there is an aura of Open Heaven Realm in Chang'an City, what is this Open Heaven Realm? Is it higher than the realm of the Holy Emperor?"

Xue Zhengwu replied honestly: "Above the Great Grandmaster, it is the Open Heaven Realm. ”

He originally thought that this old man would be angry and urgently recall Xu Chang'an, but he didn't expect this Shang Shuling to mutter: "It's only one level higher than the Holy Emperor, and the Holy Emperor and Confucius Temple should be able to protect them." ”

The corners of Xue Zhengwu's mouth moved slightly, but he still didn't tell this Lord Shang Shuling a thing.

Although this Open Heaven Realm and the Great Grandmaster are only one level apart, it is the difference between cloud and mud, even if the ten Great Grandmasters work together, they may not be able to catch the move of the Open Heaven Realm.

He looked in the direction where the two disappeared, sighed, and without saying anything, he followed Guo Jinghui downstairs.

"I can only hope that the two of them are okay!"

......

Xu Changan and Chai Xintong walked all the way, perhaps because it was too early, and they didn't find any strange people and things.

Jinguang Gate is a bit biased, almost no people will pass through this gate, generally speaking, only merchants who go to the West Market will pass through this gate.

The two went all the way, there was a village, there was a restaurant at the entrance of the village, the flag was wet by the rain, hanging low, tightly attached to the pole, Chai Xintong tilted his head, carefully identified the three words crooked on the flag, or recognized it.

"Chang'an citation. ”

There was only one person in the store, but when the store saw the two people walking in, he didn't say hello, just stared at the customer before.

The store is not big, just a room, there are more than ten old tables, because of the rainy day, the whole store looks dim and damp, there is a counter at the door, there is a pile of empty wine jars at the foot of the counter, and the faint aroma of wine comes out.

"Shopkeeper, let's have a few side dishes. Xu Changan said, and found a few taels of silver.

But the shopkeeper's eyes still looked behind the two of them and ignored the two, Xu Changan and Chai Xintong turned their heads to look, only to see that bowls had been piled up on a table, and those bowls were stacked higher than people, and they couldn't see the people behind the table.

Xu Changan and Chai Xintong were wondering who could have this appetite when a voice came from behind the stacked bowls.

"Shopkeeper, let's have another twenty bowls of noodles, another ten catties of cooked beef, and another jar of wine. ”

The voice was a little rough, Xu Changan and Chai Xintong glanced at each other, and a look of vigilance appeared in their eyes.

The shopkeeper was a woman, and she said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "Guest officer, you have already eaten all the noodles and beef in our shop." ”

"Where's the wine?"

The gruff voice sounded again.

The shopkeeper pursed his lips and did not speak.

"You little lady, are you afraid that I won't be able to pay for the wine?" said him, and a piece of paper flew out from behind the pile of bowls, and nailed it like a long arrow to the cabinet behind the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper turned around and carefully pulled out the "paper", which was a large silver ticket.

Even so, the shopkeeper bit his lip and said: "Guest officer, these drinks and dishes are counted on the slave family, and your silver ticket is more than enough to buy my "Chang'an Yin", but I just want to do some small business honestly, my shop, it is only dozens of miles away from Chang'an City, with the strength of the guest officer's feet, it is enough to reach Chang'an before the city is closed, and then the guest officer will have a drink again, wouldn't it be better?"

"Chang'an City is big, and our store is small. To the guest officer Haihan!" said the woman with her fists clenched.

There was no sound from behind the stack of bowls, and the woman breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Xu Changan and Chai Xintong and asked, "I don't know what you two need?"

Xu Changan glanced at the table full of bowls, turned his head to the shopkeeper and said, "Feel free to order side dishes and add a pot of wine." ”

The shopkeeper nodded, and Xu Changan and Chai Xintong sat down far away from the table.

After a while, a plate of cooked beef, a plate of peanuts, and a cold dish and a pot of wine were served.

The aroma of cooked beef wafted out, and a person suddenly stood up behind the stack of bowls, and chuckled: "You mother-in-law, you still tell me that I have no beef, because I am afraid that I am a bad person!"

Xu Changan and Chai Xintong looked up, only to see a bearded man walking out, he was wearing ordinary brocade clothes, holding a simple short knife in his hand, and his face was a little fierce.

The woman's heart was pounding, she was silent before, she thought that the man was gone, so she asked Xiao Er to serve food to the two guest officers who looked good, but she didn't expect that the wine money was free, there was no food, and this master had been staying behind the bowl.

"You mother-in-law, but tell me, don't you look down on me Tang someone. ”

The shopkeeper wanted to do a small business in peace, so he hurriedly shook his hands, and some of his fat bodies also shook.

"No, no, you misunderstood. ”

"Then what do you mean by that?" he said, pointing with his chin to the fragrant cooked beef on the table between Xu Changan and Chai Xintong.

The shopkeeper was speechless for a while.

Under the gaze of the bearded man, she could only bite the bullet and say, "That's the last game." ”

The bearded man stared at the store tightly, Xu Changan and Chai Xintong also stared at the big man tightly, each touching the long sword wrapped in linen.

A "poof" sounded out, and looking at the shopkeeper with a somewhat pale face, the big man smiled.

It's not easy for this store to get some money, for fear that this big man will smash the "Chang'an Yin" she worked so hard to get.

"You mother-in-law, you still look like a peugeot. Dahan said, staring at the shopkeeper's fat body and chest.

The shopkeeper was so frightened by these words that he hurriedly covered his chest, and Xu Changan and Chai Xintong had already held the long sword.

"Two masters, don't be nervous. Dahan didn't look at the two, but said leisurely.

"We're not bad people. Then he looked at the silver ticket that was placed on the counter by the store and said: "There is no reason to take back the things that were given, since it is the last plate of beef, I will eat it with them, this matter is over, how about it?"

But for those who do business, more things are better than less things, she looked at Xu Changan and Chai Xintong for help.

When Xu Changan and Chai Xintong heard this, they let go of the long sword in their hands, and Xu Changan smiled and said, "Please!"

The big man sat at a table with Xu Changan and Chai Xintong, he turned his head to the fat woman and said, "Forget it this time, if there are still people coming later, you still have beef, you will look down on me, I don't follow." ”

The woman smiled awkwardly and nodded.

"My surname is Tang, and everyone else calls me Old Tang. The man said boldly, and then he was not polite to the two, Gu Zi poured a pot of wine, and ate the meat in a big gulp.

At this moment, thunder sounded in the sky, and the rain fell again after a while.

A green-shirted scribe hurried in.

"Shopkeeper, come to a pot of wine and a plate of meat. The man shouted directly.

The fat woman's face was a little embarrassed, and she could only say, "I'm sorry, guest officer, there is nothing to eat in this store." Then he glanced at the bearded man who claimed to be Old Tang.

The green-shirted scribe nodded and said gently, "It's out of the way." As he spoke, he turned his head and followed the shopkeeper's gaze.

His face was overjoyed, and he immediately walked to the table and said to Xu Changan: "Shizi! No, now I should change my name to Little Hou Ye, I haven't seen you for many days, can I borrow a glass of water and wine?"

Xu Changan looked at this acquaintance, a little surprised, and the doubts in his heart became more and more serious, but he still nodded.

The green-shirted scribe sat down and glanced at the bearded man with some fear.

"Dare to ask what this hero is called?"

"Everyone else calls me Old Tang. The bearded man took a bite of the meat and said indifferently.

The green-shirted scribe smiled slightly, poured a glass of wine for himself, picked up the wine glass and shook it at Old Tang and said, "Coincidentally, Lin Fufeng, others will also call me Lao Lin." ”
