Ye Feng didn't quite understand his words, and looked at him a little stunned.

Sleepy Jilai took out two letters from his arms, held one of them and said: "Ye Gongzi just asked how the old man knew about the situation of your guest, and that was because the old man received this letter a few days ago. ”

"The letter was written by King Su Chitose in Lanzhou City, and the letter stated that Ye Gongzi was in Lanzhou City before, and he had great kindness to King Su Chitose and the people of Lanzhou City. ”

In this letter, the number and identity of all of you are recorded in detail, and even the appearance and personality of each distinguished guest are also described in detail, so as soon as we met just now, the old man was able to sit down with each of your identities one by one. ”

Ye Feng nodded, I see. No wonder he was so familiar with them just now, but it turned out that His Royal Highness King Su had already notified Shazhou Wei in advance and took care of his own group.

Sleepy came and continued: "At the beginning, the old man led the tribe and broke away from the control of the Northern Yuan Dynasty and settled here. Thanks to Chitose not giving up, let the contempt tribe settle down in Shazhou next to Suzhou, and take care of it in many ways, so that the old man and all of them are settled today, and there is the official establishment of the imperial court of Shazhou Wei. ”

"King Su Chitose is kind to my Shazhou Wei You, so after receiving his letter, the old man did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent someone Pegasus to inquire about the situation of Ye Gongzi and your party, but unexpectedly, the person sent had just set off, but the old man received this other letter. ”

He raised another letter in his hand and asked Ye Feng with a smile: "Ye Gongzi might as well guess first, who wrote this letter?"

Everyone shook their heads, but how could they guess this?

And Ye Feng squinted his eyes and stared at the letter in his hand for a while, and suddenly said: "Rong Zai is in vain, if he is not mistaken, this letter should be written by Song Hu, the little marquis of Xining." ”

Sleepy, his face changed, full of surprise, and he asked in a lost voice, "How did you know?"

Ye Feng smiled faintly and said: "The cover of this letter is made of thick kraft paper commonly used in the army, which can be waterproof, but most of the people use it. And there are several seals on the book cover, from the shape of the view, quite similar to the seals used by the land post station, and the border post station has always only transmitted military information and official documents, never civil correspondence, it can be seen that this letter must be an official document in the army. ”

"Shazhou Wei is subordinate to the imperial court, but he is subject to the control of Suzhou Wei, and the commander-in-chief of the military affairs of the Northwest Border Pass, including the guards under the command of Ganliang Suzhou, is the new Xining Marquis Song Hu, who is the leader's top boss. So I guessed that this letter should be a military order written by the little marquis Song Hu to the Shazhou Guard. ”

The faces of everyone in the audience changed greatly, Song Hu had just led the army to besiege Lanzhou City, and Ye Feng was facing in front of the formation, although he was forced to retreat in the end, he would have a grudge against Ye Feng in his heart. At this time, I wrote a military order to the Shazhou Health Office, where would I have any kindness?

They could almost foresee that in the military order, it must be the secret order of Ye Feng, the guard general of Shazhou, and his party

Dividing the number, there is no doubt about it.

Sleepy immediately raised his eyes and looked at the expressions on everyone's faces, but the words he said made everyone stunned: "Ye Gongzi's guess is right, this letter is indeed written by Song Xiaohouye." And Song Xiaohou Ye is in the military order, and he ordered my Shazhou guard to escort Ye Gongzi and his party through the jurisdiction safely, if there is a mistake, the military law will be engaged!"

Everyone was stunned, and even the sleepy face showed a puzzled expression, looking at Ye Feng: "A few days before the old man heard the news, Song Xiaohou led the iron cavalry to besiege Lanzhou, and almost met with the Su King Chitose soldiers. Fortunately, with the help of Ye Gongzi and all of you, the little marquis had to retreat. ”

"According to common sense, he must have a grudge against Ye Gongzi, how could he write a military order now, strictly ordering our department to protect Ye Gongzi and his party? ”

None of them could understand Song Hu's thoughts, but at this time, Ye Feng's heart was somewhat understood.

No matter what reason Song Hu withdrew from the army that day, or he understood the meaning of the four words "lips and teeth are cold" written by Ye Feng, or he figured out that he was misled and framed, and he was grateful to Ye Feng for stopping him and not making a big mistake.

No matter what, judging from his attitude towards Ye Feng when he retired from the army, as well as the sentence "There will be a period later", there is a feeling of sympathy.

Ye Feng felt that no matter whether he could meet this little marquis again in the future, at least, they were no longer enemies.

Sleepy to see that Ye Feng kept his head down and thought about it without answering, but he felt that it was inconvenient to ask any further, so he changed the topic and said: "The king of Lanzhou City, Chitose, is kind to the tribe, and the little marquis Song Hu is the top boss of Shazhou Wei, so the two of them, who have always been incompatible, actually wrote a letter to ask the old man to protect Ye Gongzi and his party, which made the old man feel that Ye Gongzi must be an ordinary person, so he hurriedly sent someone to investigate. ”

Although this Dunhuang is located in a remote area, it is the main traffic road in Hexi, there are many business travelers, and there are many people in the rivers and lakes, and the news is quite well-informed. It doesn't matter if you inquire about this, only to know that Ye Gongzi is not only a famous family, but also outstanding, and has repeatedly solved strange cases, not only has he been famous in the rivers and lakes for two years, but even the current emperor who lives above the temple also favors you. ”

"Ye Gongzi still has to be humble and say that he is a nobody, isn't he going to shame my father and son? Or do you think that the old man and others are far away in the northwest, and he is deaf and ignorant of the world's major affairs?"

When Ye Feng heard this, he hurriedly got up and apologized: "I don't have this intention, I don't have this intention!"

Sleepy came to Zhanyan and smiled: "Now that Ye Gongzi has arrived on my Shazhou Wei ground, the old man must be treated well for both public and private, I just hope that Ye Gongzi will not dislike the coarse food here and be unbearable." ”

Before Ye Feng could speak, Zhang Fatzi, who was sitting on the side, shouted: "No, no, it's just that the most famous roasted whole sheep of your Mongolian tribe is the best in the world, why haven't you seen it?"

Sleepy and handy, he laughed and said: "Yes, yes! Roast the whole sheep must be killed and roasted, which is quite time-consuming, and it is about to be rectified at the moment."

, but please wait. ”

After speaking, he raised the wine glass in his hand again and said loudly: "It's rare for all distinguished guests to come today, we won't get drunk and won't return!"

Everyone drank all the wine in the cup, and immediately clapped their hands when they were sleepy, and several beauties wearing Mongolian national costumes walked in from outside the hall, holding wine pots and bowls, and the guests on the opposite seat were toasting next to each other according to the custom.

Zhang Fatzi felt novel, and kept gagging with the toasting beauties, so when it was his turn, he was poured several bowls of wine by these beauties, which caused everyone to laugh.

By the time the roasted whole lamb that he had been talking about for a long time was brought up, Zhang Fatzi had already been drunk and collapsed under the table.

Roasted whole sheep is completely a whole sheep, and after being cleaned, it is put on a rack in the hall, and it is laid with charcoal fire underneath to roast. Armed with silver knives, everyone sat around, cutting the roasted parts on the surface and eating, while continuing to drink and chat.

This method of eating while grilling and cutting is indeed very fresh, and the rich aroma of barbecue suddenly wafts all over the room.

Everyone is laughing and saying that Zhang Fat Man has no mouth, and after chattering for a long time, he has been drunk without even seeing what the roasted whole sheep looks like, and he can't eat the best delicacy in the world.

At this time, Zhang Fatzi, who was drunk and collapsed on the ground, suddenly turned over and jumped up.

He greedily sniffed the aroma of the roasted whole sheep, and muttered: "Who said that I have no mouth, even if I arrive at Mengpo Bridge, I will definitely find a way back when I smell this aroma." ”

Everyone laughed.

Zhang Fatzi was holding a knife, and he was about to come up and cut the mutton. But after all, after drinking, his hands were slippery, and he couldn't grasp it, and he accidentally dropped the knife in his hand into the charcoal fire under the roast sheep.

At this time, the eldest son, who was sitting next to the sleepy brother, Huo Ran, stood up, pulled out the short knife on his waist, handed it to Zhang Fatzi, and said, "Come, use this." We Mongolians eat meat with short knives, which are not only our weapons to kill the enemy, but also the utensils we use to eat meat. ”

Zhang Fatzi was not polite, took it, thanked him, and hurriedly began to cut the meat and feasted on it.

Looking at the fat man Zhang who was chewing with oil, Ye Feng noticed that there was a small cut on the blade of Brother Lan's short knife in his hand, and he carved a flower with a very clever technique to cover it up.

Sleepy came to see him staring at the short knife, smiled slightly, and said softly: "This knife is his mother's relic, and he is reluctant to change it, so he has always carried it with him." ”

The fat man here stuffed his mouth full of roast mutton, and before he could swallow it, he had a seizure of alcohol, and he fell to the ground again, unconscious, causing everyone to laugh again.

The banquet lasted until it was dark, and everyone was full of wine and food, and they were very happy.

Sleepy and heard that Ye Feng and they were going to leave Dunhuang early tomorrow morning, with a reluctant look on his face, he said: "You are going to find the ancient city of Loulan, on the way to the Gobi Desert, the climate is unpredictable, how many people have fallen into it, and there is no return." In addition, bandits are rampant nowadays, often robbing pedestrian caravans, how can this be released

Heart?"

He turned to the door, and a guard came in with a birdcage, clearly a carrier pigeon.

Sleepy immediately came to Ye Feng and said: "This is the carrier pigeon used in my army, Ye Gongzi with me, if there is any danger, you can release the carrier pigeon to inform the old man, the old man immediately led the Shazhou Wei to come to help, remember, remember!"

As he spoke, he held Ye Feng's hands tightly and squeezed them twice hard, as if he had some deep meaning.

However, Ye Feng was a little unclear after drinking at this time, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

Xie Zhenliang, who was standing near the door, took the birdcage casually, he looked carefully at the carrier pigeon in the cage, and seemed to be stunned for a moment, but he didn't speak, and he didn't say anything else.

Sleepy came to hold Ye Feng's hand and said, "Early tomorrow morning, the old man will ask Brother Dog to lead the thirty Shazhou guards to escort you until you are sent out of the Shazhou territory." ”

Ye Feng bowed down and thanked him repeatedly.

When saying goodbye, he sent them out of the gate of the government office, looking at their backs while waving his hand and shouting: "Take care all the way!"

It wasn't until Ye Feng and their figures disappeared into the night that they let out a long sigh and said, "He's a good person, and he's a smart person, it's a pity." ”

The eldest son, Brother Lan, who was standing behind him, also nodded in response: "It's a pity. ”

As soon as he turned around, he said to Brother Nan: "You go and prepare tomorrow's people, you must choose some good ones, I think the people around him seem to know martial arts." ”

Brother Lan bowed down and replied, "Yes!"

Sleepy and sighed, and walked back without looking back, behind him, a fierce killing intent flashed in Brother Lan's eyes!
