Chapter 166 The Deceased

The letter was written by a man from Chudi, who was a good friend of the girl's father, and wrote to inform the girl of the bad news.

This person is obviously just going to write, there are a lot of typos on the letter, and the sentences are not smooth, but Li Congwen still understands.

The gist of it is that Chu Di sent a big flood, and the word Dun Cheng Ze Guo was used, which was the most gorgeous in the whole letter, but in the event of a flood, no matter how big or small, both high-ranking officials and ordinary people said that Dun Cheng Ze Country, so Li Congwen still thought that the person who wrote the letter had not read many books.

He can be sure of that.

The girl's father was a doctor, and he went to a place called Xiachao Town, more than 100 miles west of Muzhen, to treat people.

The patient was a lonely old man, and when the water came, the girl's father wanted to take the old man with him, but he didn't expect that the person could not be saved, and he also got in.

The writer of the letter left the two of them to escape by himself, but later wrote the letter with great remorse.

I don't know if the letter was stained with water or tears, and it was crumpled.

Li Congwen's strange thing was that he had never heard of the flood, and when he looked at the time on the letter, he knew that he was staying on Lushan at that time, and the news was blocked, and he did not receive the news.

But didn't Daoist Meng Zhen use the talisman given by the patriarch before?

Sure enough, the Taoist priests in Zhongnan are as unreliable as Xiaoyang? Or is it because the Taoist priests in Zhongnan are unreliable that there is such a Xiaoyang?

"What is written in the letter?" Xiaohua rolled her eyes and grunted according to Li Congwen's instructions, and after reading it for a long time, she tired him, and when she saw Li Congwen read it, she shook her head and asked.

"His father was drowned. ”

"She also wants to drown me! I didn't drown her father, why did she retaliate against me?" Xiaohua's eyes widened in disbelief, and she was extremely aggrieved.

Li Congwen was a little worried, and the letter did not write how big the flood was and how many people were killed or injured, but he didn't think much about it when he thought that his father and Uncle Yang would definitely deal with it properly.

Oh, and Xie Yan, that kid is sitting in Chudi, this guy has a good head.

......

Capital.

There are countless people who step into the capital every day, and seven or eight out of ten are attracted by the prosperous scene of the capital.

From the thick gate in the south of Luoyang City, you can see a very tall tower not far away, a few steps back is the West Market, the residual heat of the end of summer does not seem to cover the liveliness of the market, and it is still full of people.

A woman in a red shirt walked in front of a street vendor, stopped in front of a jewelry shop, and stared at the jewelry on the shelf.

It's just that she was just about to pick one up when she was grabbed by two small hands.

"Master, we have no money and can't buy any more. Taejeong said with a sad face.

The three of them went all the way north from Chudi, stopping and stopping, and walked for half a year before arriving in the capital.

Along the way, Taizheng and Luo Li were devastated by Riying, and were forced to practice martial arts by changing their methods. Taizheng didn't know what level his martial arts had reached, he only knew that his ability to stop Riying from doing evil was much stronger.

"Let's run!" Ri Ying said aloud in front of the shop guys.

But the shopkeeper just smiled and thought the girl in front of him was quite interesting.

"Master, no. Taejeong was a little helpless.

"Master, I sold my flute to you for jewelry. Luo Li took out the pitch-black iron flute from his waist and held it up in front of Riying.

The corners of Taizheng's mouth twitched, "Your iron is worthless." ”

Luo Li nodded, pointed at Taizheng and said, "Then sell your silver flute!"

Tai Zheng's face darkened, he was much more skilled with a flute than with a dagger, so he was counting on using it to do chivalrous deeds, how could he sell it?

What's more, it's better to change to useless jewelry.

"Master, we're here to do business, don't forget. Taejeong reminded.

He was afraid that Ri Ying would really rob it, and they might have to experience what it was like to squat in a cell in the capital.

Riying pouted, took one last look at the jewelry in the store, and reluctantly left.

The capital is divided into two by Luoshui, the palace is in the north of Luoyang, and the bridge is to cross Luoshui.

The three of them stood on Yufu Street, and Taizheng looked at the overpass in front of him before he felt a little scared.

Just now he saw a carriage driven by three horses, with gold ornaments and silver embroidered belts, which had to be sat by a third-rank official.

He listened to the sound of rolling water, and suddenly felt that they were so stupid, let alone seeing His Majesty, they couldn't enter the palace.

Of course, Riying didn't have this consciousness, so she stepped onto the bridge first, and her pace was brisk, and Taizheng couldn't stop her, so she had to keep up.

The gate of the outer city of the imperial city is open, and you can see the five steps and one guard inside, which is heavily guarded.

The two guards at the door saw a young girl leading the two children in, and lowered their spears and said sharply: "Someone is coming, do you have an official letter?"

These three people don't look like they are from high-ranking officials and nobles, and they don't know what they are doing in the palace.

Tai Zheng was afraid that his master would call His Majesty by his name, and that he would be executed on the street, so he stepped forward and saluted: "Two military masters, we want to see Your Majesty." ”

One of the guards frowned, "Your Majesty's edict?"

Taejeong swallowed, "No. ”

"Introduction?"

"It's not. ”

The two janissaries looked at each other, "What's the matter?"

Tai Zheng was speechless for a long time, but Ri Ying said nonchalantly: "My master asked me to come." ”

"Who is your master?"

"My master is ......"

"It's Your Majesty's deceased. Tai Zheng stopped her without letting Riying finish speaking, and said stubbornly, thought about it and added, "Your Majesty and Shi Gong made an appointment to say goodbye, and Shi Gong left his last words before he passed away for the master to meet her on her behalf." ”

"Is this true? If there is even the slightest lie, you can't afford this crime!"

Tai Zheng glanced at his master, and seeing that she didn't speak, he bowed his head and said, "What you said is not a little false. ”

One of the guards took one look at them, turned and went in to report it. He didn't take two steps before he met the head of the Internal Affairs Office and explained his reason.

The chief manager asked again about the appearance of the person who came, and then reported it layer by layer, and passed it all the way to His Majesty's personal father-in-law.

"The old man's apprentice?red shirt?" Zhao Qinian listened to his father-in-law's report, frowned and thought for a moment, and his eyes suddenly widened, "Quick, call in!"

"Wow. ”

The father-in-law answered and was about to leave, and heard Zhao Qinian say: "Slow!"

"What else does Your Majesty command?"

Zhao Qiqing said with a smile: "Gonggong Hong, tell the guards that I am gone, but if a few of them break in at night, there is no need to stop them." ”

"This ......," Gonggong Hong hesitated for a moment and still responded.

......

"Your Majesty is gone, let's go. The Praetorian Guards were fortunate enough to meet Grandpa Hong, but the orders they received were rather strange and confusing him.

But he didn't think too much about it and did what he was told.

"How is that possible? You tell Zhao ...... Tell Your Majesty that my master is ......"

Riying was stopped by Taizheng halfway through speaking, and hurriedly dragged her away, otherwise several people were afraid that their lives would be in danger.

"Master, be cautious, be cautious. Back on Yufu Street, Taizheng was covered in a cold sweat and his clothes were soaked.

"Master, what should I do if Your Majesty doesn't see us?" Luo Li raised his head and asked.

Riying snorted, "I must complete the master's order, let's sneak in at night!"

"Wow!"

"What?"

Taejeong looked at the two of them with a resolute and admiring expression, and felt a little black in front of him.

Crazy, crazy these two guys.

At the beginning of his martial arts, he didn't become a hero, he became a thief first.

It's still the kind that sneaks into the palace.

No, we have to find a way to stop these two people.

If you want to stop it, you can't stop it, so you can only find someone to help.

Taizheng thought about it for a long time, and suddenly his eyes lit up, looking for Brother Li!

I just don't know if Brother Li has returned to Beijing.

Taejeong decided to go to Lee Sang-fu for a while.

......

Lushan.

Morning is generally the time for Li Congwen to sleep, especially when he slept late last night, but Li Congwen woke up early in the morning.

Because he dreamed that he was eating, and then he opened his eyes, and there was really a bowl of porridge in front of him.

Li Congwen was stunned for a long time before remembering that he was in Xiaohua's body, looking at the porridge in front of him that was about to be eaten, he felt that his stomach was bulging, and he could only eat it as if he was sleepwalking.

"Alright, when you're full, you'll have to work for me. The girl put away the dishes and chopsticks and said to Xiaohua, Li Congwen didn't understand what this girl meant by talking to the cat seriously.

"What did she say?"

"She asked you to do the work for her. ”

"Why?"

"You ate her food. ”

Xiaohua was about to argue, when she saw the girl walk into the courtyard with a bamboo sieve.

The girl put the sieve on the ground and touched the little flower that came out, "This herb should be dried, you watch it for me, don't be taken away by the birds." ”

"What did she say?"

"She told you to chase the birds away. ”

Xiaohua's eyes lit up, and her eyes were different when she looked at the sieve, "Bird, the bird is delicious." I see, it's a trap, it's a trap for catching birds. ”

Li Congwen thought about it and didn't speak, and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Xiaohua said.

Little Flower walked around the sieve twice, looking around with a wary face, expecting a bird to fly down, and the girl smiled and touched his head and went into the house.

"That's good. ”

Li Congwen felt Su Shuang, who had not yet dispersed above his head, and the warm sun of the late summer morning shone on his body. In front of him are mountain peaks, the forests on the mountains are half green and half red, and there is mist shrouding them, like a fairyland.

Xiaohua couldn't wait to go around the sieve, "Where's the bird? Why haven't you come yet?"

Xiaohua definitely wouldn't stare at the mountains and forests, so Li Congwen just glanced at it in a hurry and didn't have any feelings.

"You've been around, and the birds don't dare to come. ”

"But I'm running away, and the bird flies down, and I probably won't have time to catch it. ”

Li Congwen thought for a moment and smiled, "Can you let me control your body for a while?"

"What are you going to do?"

"You stay away for a while, the bird is coming, you call me, I'll come out and clean it up. ”

Li Congwen felt that even if he didn't have a sword, it should be no problem to use Xiaohua's claws to make sword intent, at least it wouldn't be too much to catch a bird, right?

"Okay. Xiaohua hesitated for a long time, but she was still defeated by the temptation of the birds, and ran to the corner of the yard and lay down.

Li Congwen just wanted to take this opportunity to catch up on sleep, and suddenly smelled a familiar smell from Xiaohua's nose.

"There's something in the dirt. Li Congwen said.

"What's that?"

"You dig it out and take a look. ”

Xiaohua Nian agreed to Li Congwen's help him catch birds, and began to dig the soil with his paws.

It didn't take long to see something in the soil, which was something Li Congwen was very familiar with.

Wine jars.
