Chapter XXVII
Wen Peng saw that the group of officers and soldiers who looked like guards, they had no intention of stopping, and from time to time they threw mocking glances, and when they saw the general, they came with a knife menacingly, he was not afraid, and shouted in a righteous manner: "Acting Prince, do you want to rebel?"
Everyone was afraid of this.
A cadre of people and others all looked at Wen Peng.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the escort leader shouted, "Boy, if you want to live, you have to talk nonsense. As he spoke, he had come to Wen Peng.
Hearing Wen Peng's astonishing words, and seeing the indignation of the onlookers, he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he had to press the treasure knife back into the scabbard.
Wen Peng did not flinch and continued: "Gusu City is an important town in this dynasty, and at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the emperor's grace is mighty. As a royal prince and nobleman, arson and looting, beating the people on the street, has violated the law, it is really a great crime of disrespect, and the law of the country is intolerable. And according to the laws of this dynasty, the vassal king is not allowed to leave the fief without being summoned by the holy lord, and the violator should be punished for the crime of rebellion. Today, you are at the feet of the Son of Heaven, conniving at your subordinates, plundering the people, punishing both crimes, and punishing the nine tribes. ”
Although this son is young, he is to the point, and every word is heart-wrenching, which can't help but make people tremble.
The general was cowardly, and he was afraid that he would continue, so he threatened in a low voice: "Shut up, and then beware of the evil words to confuse the public, beware of Lord Ben asking for your life." With that, he was about to reach out and grab Wen Peng's neck.
"Stop! Don't hurt his life. An old man's voice came from inside the carriage. This old man is none other than Lord Yang of the Acting King's Mansion, the Changshi Division.
When he heard Wen Peng's words, he couldn't help but lean out of the window. Looking closely at this, there is an extraordinary aura between the eyebrows.
On the one hand, the old man lamented that although this son was young and frivolous, he had the courage of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, and on the other hand, he was afraid that the general would hurt people's lives, and that it would cause a big incident. He didn't care much, and spoke out in time to stop the general's reckless behavior.
The old man continued: "We will come to Suzhou City to purchase goods at the behest of the king. How do you know that this shop is shoddy, deceiving us, and it is really a trickster. Don't listen to this child's nonsense, how can we disturb the people? Disperse early, and do not gather a crowd to make trouble and break the law. ”
After the old man finished speaking, he sat back in the car and beckoned everyone to leave.
The onlookers couldn't help but scold in a low voice, this person actually reversed right and wrong, beat a rake, and falsely accused others of innocence.
When the general heard the old man's order, he withdrew his hand, glared at Wen Peng viciously, and turned to leave.
He mounted his horse, threw a bag of silver beside the shopkeeper outside the door, summoned the guards, dispersed the crowd, turned the carriage and horses, and hurried away towards the outside of Suzhou.
Not long after the team left, the prefect of Suzhou led the arrester and the officials to hurry over.
When the onlookers saw someone from the government, they began to disperse.
Seeing that the people from the yamen had not yet arrived, and the crowd was about to disperse, Wen Peng was about to help, but the injured man who fell to the ground was dragged by a young woman.
The woman took advantage of the unpreparedness, took his hand, and hurried away.
Wen Peng looked up and saw that the woman was graceful, dressed in a cyan dress, draped in a black cloak, wearing a cloak, blocked by white sand, unable to see clearly, with a jade pendant hanging from her waist, and a faint fragrance on her body.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Little sister, where are you taking the students to?" I have no grievances with the young lady, so don't harm the students. ”
As he spoke, he wanted to break free from the woman's jade hand, but he knew that the woman was very powerful and difficult to escape for a while.
The woman laughed softly: "You were upright just now, why are you afraid that your sister will harm you now? After the woman finished speaking, she smiled, and she continued: "Don't worry, my sister is not harming you, but trying to save you." See, I'll wait for a tail to follow. They're here to take your life. ”
Wen Peng had no choice but to follow closely, looking back from time to time, and saw that not far away, there were always two or three people who looked like officers and soldiers chasing after him, his heart was pounding, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.
The two walked through the streets and alleys, weaving through the crowds.
Seeing that no one was chasing after them, the two stopped in a small alley.
The woman saw that there was no one around, so she let go of Wen Peng's hand.
She opened her mouth and said: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, how can you be angry with your scholar?"
Wen Peng replied: "In broad daylight, how can you allow these people to do anything wrong, burning, killing and looting?"
"Hmph, there are too many injustices in the rivers and lakes, can you be a little schoolboy who can manage it? The Son of Heaven is still up to him, accustomed to him, what can the grass people and the grass people do with him? I didn't listen to his military advisor just now, if the government really investigates it and accuses you of framing and slandering you, what can you do?" The woman replied as she took off her black cloak, took off her cloak, and took off her veil.
The woman's words made Wen Peng speechless.
He looked at the stunning woman in front of him and couldn't help but be stunned.
It is really the appearance of a sinking fish and a goose, and the appearance of a shy flower in the closed moon.
Wen Peng couldn't help but think of this sentence, so that he was worthy of the world-class appearance of the young lady in front of him.
But seeing this peerless beauty, seventeen or eighteen, in her prime of life, her black hair was coiled up, a hosta was inserted in her hair, and there was a little hair hanging from her ears.
Her face is like a peach blossom, her skin is like condensed fat, her jade cheeks are reddish, her willow leaves are thin, her eyes are bright, and she looks forward to it. The air is like a quiet orchid, and the posture is graceful.
The woman saw him in a daze, very cute, and couldn't help but put Qianqianyu's hand on his nose, swiped it lightly, and chuckled: "What a disciple, at a young age, don't learn well." ”
Wen Peng came back to his senses at this time, and asked with dignity: "Where is the heavenly reason? Where is the royal law? Is it just that they are allowed to prey on the common people, go unpunished, and be lawless?"
The woman sighed softly: "The law is clear, the law is magnificent, who can bypass? Don't be reckless and lose your own life. ”
"How many people have been harmed by that evil person? When the eyes of the Lord of Heaven are opened, how many people will suffer? Why not bring him to justice as soon as possible, so that more people will not suffer?" Wen Peng asked.
"Hehe, at a young age, I am also worried about the country and the people. It's a pity that there are too many injustices in the world, and you and I can't help it. If you want to do justice for others, you must first save your own life. The beautiful woman didn't know how to answer for a while, but turned to comfort.
Wen Peng sighed, and then asked: "Student Murong Wenpeng, a person from Yanyuzhuang, thank you for the rescue, dare to ask the young lady's name?"
"Thank you you don't have to. My sister's surname is Chu, her name is Ziyan, and she is from Long'an Mansion. Originally, he was ordered by his master to hunt down and kill the thief, but he escaped again. Hey, if you miss such a God-given opportunity, it will be even more difficult to kill this demon in the future. Fortunately, you, a young boy, stopped the evil in time. denounced his crime on the street, making his eagle dog fearful, and fleeing in a hurry, which can be regarded as a bad breath for his sister. The woman replied softly.
Wen Peng chuckled lightly and replied, "It seems that scholars are not useless. ”
"Do you dare to be complacent? Next time, don't act recklessly, the book is angry. If you hadn't met someone as kind as your sister, I'm afraid your life would be in danger. Even in the prosperous world, it is "strong and weak, noble and arrogant". Our generation should take the law as the degree, love each other, and benefit each other. If one day, you show your life's ambitions, remember to be people-oriented, reward and punish appropriately, be virtuous, not partial to wealth and nobility, and serve the country and the people. The woman said, covering her veil again.
Wen Peng understood what he meant and nodded again and again. He asked, "The night is getting darker, and there is still homework tomorrow, and the students want to rush back to the college, I wonder if they can leave?"
Chu Ziyan looked around, saw that there were no pursuers, looked at the sky again, thought for a moment, and replied: "My sister has an empty stomach, why don't you accompany my sister to eat some food before leaving, okay?"
Wen Peng hurriedly agreed, and the two went out of the alley, found a wine shop, and sat down in a secluded corner.
Xiao Er brought the meal, and the two chatted while eating.
Wen Peng listened to Chu Ziyan talk about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and couldn't help but be envious, and he forgot to eat for a while.
Chu Ziyan saw the books on the table and asked, "Since you are a student, why do you read Mr. Shi's masterpiece?"
Wen Peng said with a smile: "I didn't enjoy listening to the drama a few days ago, so I bought it for a sneak peek." The sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes do the right thing for the heavens, eliminate violence and peace, and show their true colors as heroes. How fast is it to be chivalrous?"
Chu Ziyan couldn't help laughing out loud, and said softly: "Hey! People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help it. The strife in the rivers and lakes is also for fame and fortune. If you read this book, you will understand. ”
The two laughed and talked for a long time, and when they saw that the night was getting deeper, Wen Peng got up and said goodbye.
Chu Ziyan settled the account and got up to send it off. When the two came to the wine shop, Wen Peng seemed reluctant and asked, "I don't know when I can meet Sister Ziyan again?"
Chu Ziyan chuckled, took out a token from her waist, handed it to Wen Peng, and chuckled: "If you miss your sister, you can take this token and go to Huangxia Mountain in Long'an Mansion to find your sister." ”
Wen Peng took the token, looked carefully, and saw that on the wooden token, the word "Xia" was engraved on the front, and the word "letter" was engraved on the back, and a pair of phoenixes were carved on both sides of the big black font. There are also a few lines of small characters engraved on the front, which read: The benefits of the world are rejuvenated, and the harm of the world is removed.
Chu Ziyan warned him to keep it properly and not to let others see it. Wen Peng smiled, took it out from his waist again, and put it in his arms.
After the two said goodbye, Wen Peng was full of joy and walked along the street in the direction of the academy.
Seeing him enter the academy, Chu Ziyan stopped and followed, stood by the river, and said softly: "A few senior brothers, don't you show up yet?"
"Little junior sister, you really have a heart, escort all the way, is this to find a little Langjun for your family?" In the night, from the woods on the side, a man in black walked out. This man was masked, unable to see clearly, with big eyes and bright eyes.
As he spoke, two more people flew out of the forest, a man in white and a man in green.
The man in white, dressed like a scholar, this person is extraordinary, dignified, elegant, elegant, holding a bamboo fan, chuckling.
The man in green clothes is angular, refreshing and free, and looks shrewd and capable.
Chu Ziyan saw the three of them appear, and replied in a low voice: "Hehe, what's the matter?"
Hearing this, the man in white smiled awkwardly and hurriedly glanced at the man in black.
The man in black knew that the little junior sister was angry, and hurriedly smiled: "Little junior sister, please forgive the third senior brother for being rude." The senior brother was just concerned about the operation and how it was going, but he saw that the junior sister was secretly protecting a primary school child. said this casually, I really didn't mean to ridicule my sister, and I hope my sister will forgive me. ”
"Yes, I was also in the forest outside the city, and when I saw my sister's mount - stepping on the snow, I saw my sister's message, so I hurried to answer. I wonder if my sister will succeed?"
"Hey, don't mention it. God-given opportunity, if you miss it, you may not have the opportunity to start again. Chu Ziyan let out a long sigh.
"Oh? Could it be that his whereabouts have been exposed and discovered? What are the details, please tell my junior sister. When the man in white heard this, he frowned and tapped his palm with a bamboo fan.
Since separating from several senior brothers, the junior sister has been tracking the demon all the way, and has not been noticed by him. It's just that five miles outside the city, the devil was stopped by a large group of people, but he didn't see him fighting each other. The official road was blocked, and the junior sister couldn't get close, so I don't know what they talked about. When the little sister caught up again, she saw that the gang was in a silk village in the city, smashing and looting. There are many onlookers, and the younger sister is not easy to start, for fear of hurting the innocent. Fortunately, the schoolboy just now spoke out to stop the violence, forcing the gang to stop. At this time, the junior sister realized that in the official car, the only person sitting in the official car was his dog-headed military advisor, the bastard prince and the princess were nowhere to be found. Chu Ziyan said slowly.
"Hey, it's really extraneous, but why doesn't the junior sister chase those eagle dogs so that she can find out the way?" asked the man in black puzzled.
"I'm afraid it's already too late. The two cars were there, and Na Changshi was sitting in the devil's car again, and there was a confusion. Most of the people who accompanied him were missing. Presumably, they were divided into two routes, and the two had changed their itinerary and disappeared. Moreover, this long history had bad intentions and secretly sent people to harm the little brother. Seeing this, the younger sister had no choice but to stay and secretly protect him from poison. Gusu City is convenient by land and water, and it may not be easy to find out the clues. Chu Ziyan sighed.
"I see, the senior brother joked, the little sister should not be blamed. The man in black apologized again.
Chu Ziyan shook her head and replied: "However, after this incident, the devil will be unhappy, and the emperor may not be able to spare him." As a prince, it is a big sin to leave the fiefdom without authorization. ”
Chu Ziyan's words seemed to remind the man in white who was still thinking.
"Senior sister, don't blame yourself, it's all my fault for not seeing evil things. If it hadn't been for the fact that we had divided our troops and gone to teach those wicked men a lesson, the assassination would not have been like this. I'm going to Datong Mansion as soon as possible, maybe there's a turnaround. The man in white chuckled.
The four of them turned their worries into joy, and rushed out of the city, disappearing into the vast night.
