Chapter 62: The Horse Enters the Customs (Part II)
The sky has not yet darkened, and the outside of the Yunmen Governor's Mansion is already crowded with people, and it is surrounded by water.
At first, Ji Chengche thought that he was late and didn't occupy a good position, and he was feeling regretful, so he listened to everyone around him and said: "This is the New Year, why is General Ao arrested, and he said that he will raid his house......"
"You be quiet," a person next to him hurriedly whispered to stop: "I heard that it's from Beijing, let's just watch the excitement, don't make trouble for yourself." ”
A middle-aged scholar dressed as a scholar said hesitantly: "What do you know? I heard the second son of my brother's brother and cousin's family say that Ao Jianghai has a big problem, and this time the lock is taken into Beijing to ask for the crime, and he is locked up in prison." Do you know the prison? That's where the court is going to be treated, don't think about it if you go in. ”
The old man who spoke earlier asked, "Gu Xiucai, what did you say General Ao was up to?"
Gu Xiucai said proudly: "This is a secret of the imperial court, can I tell you casually?"
"Pull it down!" The blue-faced man next to him sneered: "Others don't know that I He San still don't know your little family background? What is it that you are a wife and brother and the second son of your cousin's family, isn't it Liu Lao Er, who set up a stall at the city gate to sell pancakes!"
The people who were eavesdropping around suddenly burst into laughter, and Gu Xiucai's face was flushed, and he said in a loud voice: "Only villains and women are difficult to raise! Only villains and women are difficult to raise...... Ahem, ahem!"
"Something happened to Ao Jianghai?" Ji Chengche was surprised, and silently exuded a soft force outside his body, and the people watching the excitement next to him felt as if they had been pushed by the waves, and they retreated to the side.
Ji Chengche mingled in the crowd and squeezed all the way to the front of the Cloud Gate Governor's Mansion.
Finally squeezed to the front row, and sure enough, I saw that the streets outside the general's mansion had been closed to martial law, and hundreds of officers and soldiers set up roadblocks to block the intersection and surround the general's mansion, so that even a fly would not be allowed to fly out.
Obviously, all of these officers and soldiers were temporarily transferred from other places, and presumably at this time, there were already people in the military camp at Yunmen Pass to suppress the bombs, so as not to cause riots and mutinies.
A group of silver-armored warriors guarding the gate of the General's Mansion suddenly attracted Ji Cheng's attention.
"Zuo Wuwei, sure enough, he is from Tiandu City. He whispered to himself: "Yunmen Pass belongs to Yanzhou, this time Ao Jianghai actually skipped the history of Yanzhou assassination and sent someone directly from Beijing to lock it, the matter is not small." ”
At this time, Ao Jianghai wore civilian clothes, wore shackles and locks, and walked out of the governor's mansion, escorted by dozens of Zuo Wuwei beside him, as if facing a great enemy.
Coming out with Ao Jianghai, on the left is a general Zuo Wuwei, whose title is just half a step higher than him in rank, and there is also a middle-aged military general on the right, who is here to replace Ao Jianghai as the commander of Yunmen.
Although the two looked solemn, their attitude towards Ao Canghai was quite polite.
The newly arrived Yunmen Lieutenant said: "Lao Ao, I'm sorry for you, it's like this for the New Year." The family members in the house are all living in the house for the time being, don't move, and wait until the end of the New Year. Anyway, I, Wu Kui, just live in the barracks. ”
Ao Jianghai had a lot of bruises on his body, and it seemed that he had fought with Zuo Wuwei's people when he was in the house.
Hearing Wu Kui's words, he didn't appreciate it, and scolded: "Straight lady thief, you go and tell Lin Zongtang that Lao Tzu is not finished with him! If you don't catch Lao Tzu and go to Beijing, Lao Tzu himself still wants to sue the emperor! It's a big deal that his head has fallen off a bowl and a big scar, is it great?"
Ji Chengche was stunned when he heard this, and thought, "Why did this matter involve Lin Zongtang?"
Lin Zongtang is one of the nine kings of the Han Dynasty, the official worships Guangluxun, and is a Confucian general who is very relied on by his father.
Ji Chengche saw Lin Zongtang a few times when he was a child, and this person's face was like a crown jade poetry book, which made him very impressed.
I only heard the general Zuo Wuwei smile bitterly: "General Ao, you don't have to talk nonsense anymore on the street." General Wu and I are both on an errand, if you have anything to say, stay in the capital and talk to those bigwigs in the DPRK. ”
Ao Jiang seal's eyes widened and said: "Lian Heguo, you don't have an official relationship with Lao Tzu." When Lao Tzu was working as a groom for His Majesty, the hair on your kid's mouth hadn't grown yet. What's the matter, the official is big and can talk, what a fucking appearance!"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's that I can't speak. Lian He Guo smiled bitterly, now it is not far from the founding of the Han Dynasty, the military habits are extremely strong, and the blood friendship of colleagues is even more valued by these veterans.
Although Ao Jianghai's official rank is not as good as Lian Heguo, and he is also the key criminal who dispatched Zuo Wuwei Suo after the Dali Temple will know Guanglu Temple, but his qualifications are high enough, and he has been the horseman of Emperor Longwu for a while. Even if His Majesty the Emperor may not remember that there is such an Ao Jianghai, others dare not fall into the well easily.
The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, Ao Jianghai held back the fire in his stomach and had nowhere to go, so he had to snort and limp onto the prisoner car parked outside the mansion.
"Father!" A girl with thick eyebrows and big eyes and thick black braids suddenly ran out of the house, rushed away from Zuo Wuwei's barrier and ran to Ao Jianghai's prisoner car.
Ao Jianghai opened a single dragon eye and said angrily: "Girl, why don't you take care of the people at home, what are you doing chasing Lao Tzu out?"
The girl with thick eyebrows had the style of a father, and said with her head held high: "I will accompany you to the capital!"
Ao Jianghai said angrily: "You little girl, why are you going to the capital with Lao Tzu?"
The girl with thick eyebrows said loudly: "I want to find the emperor to sue the emperor in person!"
Ao Jianghai was on fire, and he was about to slap the girl, thinking about it and putting it down, he jumped like thunder and said: "Get out, it's not your turn to worry about Lao Tzu's affairs!"
The girl with thick eyebrows looked at Ao Jianghai aggrievedly, tears slowly welled up in her eyes, and she suddenly turned her head and ran back to the house without saying a word.
When she arrived at the gate of the mansion, she turned her head and shouted at Ao Jianghai: "Okay, you want to die, I don't care!"
Ao Jianghai is like a fire and has no temper with his baby daughter, and said with a smile to Lian Heguo and Wu Kui: "Hey, his mother's girl has grown up, and she doesn't accept Lao Tzu's care." ”
Lian Heguo smiled and said, "General Ao, I'm going to wronged you to stay in the post station tonight." ”
"It's nice to have a post station. "Ao Jianghai didn't care," Lao Tzu followed His Majesty to fight Lunan, and he didn't eat or drink for three days in the ice and snow, and he froze to death an unknown number of people, so he smashed Lunan City open...... Hey, Xiao Wuzi remember that you were there, right?"
Wu Kui scratched his head in embarrassment, he was also a fourth-grade Yunmen captain, and he was screamed by "Xiao Wuzi" in front of the public, and there was no place to put his face, so he had to say: "Well, at that time, I was a flag officer under the command of the giant general." ”
"It's a man!" Ao Jianghai gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "I have seen the giant general fight, and he rushed forward regardless of the sword mountain and the sea of fire." You carry the flag for him, and you can't do it at all. ”
Wu Kui's face suddenly burst into laughter, and he said with a shy chest: "Who said it wasn't? I've been to the Ghost Gate five or six times!"
At this time, the prisoner car started and escorted Ao Jianghai to the post station in Yunmen Pass.
Until the prisoner car went far away, the ordinary people watching the outside of the Yunmen Governor's Mansion did not disperse, and there were groups of people talking.
Ji Chengche nodded and said, "Lian Heguo and Wu Kui are good. ”
Wang Rou didn't know Ao Jianghai, she bit her lip and didn't make a sound, thinking that this one who had committed a crime would be raided from his house, but he talked and laughed with the people who came to raid the house, it was really a strange thing, and it became "good" on the lips of this young master.
I really don't know what it would be like if I was "wrong".
Ji Chengche slowly withdrew from the crowd, looked in the direction of the Cloud Gate Governor's Mansion and sighed: "The dragon dance can't be seen." Tomorrow morning, I will retire from my room and go to the market to buy two good horses and prepare to enter Beijing. ”
Wang Rou was slightly surprised and said, "Master, are you going to avenge Ao Jianghai?"
Ji Chengche smiled and said: "The matter has not been figured out yet, where is the wronged? I just think that Ao Jianghai is very interesting, it is better to accompany him on the way, and it is not lonely on the road." ”
Wang Rou was silent for a while, and asked, "Do you want the slave to try to get close to Ao Jianghai's daughter to ask the master about the case?"
Ji Chengche shook his head and said, "That girl is thick and leafy like a tomboy, I'm afraid I can't ask what the bottom is." Since this matter was Lin Zongtang's shot, there must be a story behind it. Otherwise, with a four-rank Yunmen captain, how could he work for Guangluxun's great mastership...... It's a place with a lot of stories, listen to and watch more, but you can't wet your feet first when you step on it. ”
"The hosts. Wang Rou couldn't help but scream softly, but didn't continue.
"What's the matter?" Ji Cheng looked back at her in surprise.
"Listen to you, like an old man in his fifties or sixties. ”
"That's right," Ji Chengche was stunned, and said with a smile: "In order to prove that I am still young, why don't I invite you to go to Cloud Gate to watch juggling now?"
Wang Rou lowered her eyelids and lightly reminded Ji Chengche: "I am your slave." ”
"Slaves can't watch juggling, who said that?"
Wang Rou saw that Ji Chengche was deliberately pretending to be confused, so she didn't say more.
At that moment, the two of them went to the empty field outside the Cloud Gate Temple to watch the juggling for a while, such as swallowing the sword into the abdomen, spewing flames in the mouth, and cracking the boulder in the chest, although it was all fooling things, Ji Chengche still watched it with taste, and as the crowd continued to applaud, he threw a string of reward money into it when he was happy.
Unexpectedly, the strong man who performed the big stone on his chest found out that Ji Chengche was a demon boy, and instead of thanking him, he viciously stepped the string of copper coins into the sand and crushed it back and forth with his boots.
"Phew, bad luck, I won't play tonight!" he put on his coat and glared at Ji Cheng with an angry glance about to close the stall.
Ji Chengqing's sword eyebrows raised and slowly fell, and he muttered in his mouth: "This person is too boring." ”
Wang Rou suddenly became interested, wondering how long Ji Chengche could endure such white eyes.
She was very unhappy with the stares of the people around her, and wondered if she should dig out a few pairs of eyeballs when she turned around.
Leng Buding heard someone say coldly: "Get out, Yunmen Guan doesn't welcome the devil cub raised by the son of a bitch!"
Ji's clear eyes slowly merged into two slits and looked at the person who spoke.
Wang Rou suddenly noticed a chill coming from her side, and her heart trembled inexplicably.
