Chapter 440: Tricky Girl

On that day, Shen Yunpeng led people to besiege the city, but he was cold and icy in front of everyone, broke through the sword mountain and arrow forest laid by the Praetorian Guard, and fled in a blink of an eye, and he, the commander, was punished extremely severely by the Queen Mother.

In addition to the twenty unscrupulous court staffs, he was also punished to lead the heavily armed Praetorian Guards to train outside the city for a whole month.

To tell the truth, he was able to have such a relatively fortunate ending in the end, thanks to the eunuch chief of Cining Palace, Gonggong Yu.

Although the unlucky father-in-law Yu was thrown on a tree by cold ice and froze for most of the night, he let Shen Yunpeng lead someone to find it. But fortunately, the old eunuch's body is still quite tough, and he didn't get sick because of it.

And this old eunuch also has a good heart, and he felt that Shen Yunpeng had to order Han Bing to escape in order to save him at that time, but he was punished by the Queen Mother for this. Then he should naturally say a few good words for this commander, which can be regarded as a return for the peach.

Originally, according to the queen mother's intention, she wanted to count the crimes and punish Shen Yunpeng, the unfavorable commander, with a cane for forty.

As a result, after Yu's father-in-law pleaded from the side, the punishment was reduced by half. And the people in charge of the execution are also clever and sensible, it seems that the hands are not light, but the flesh is not heavy, and they are very measured, and they do not hurt their muscles and bones at all.

Although Shen Yunpeng only suffered some flesh and skin and did not leave a serious disability, he did not have a trace of luck in his heart, but felt a lot of guilt.

Tens of thousands of Praetorian Guards, who were waiting for the battle, actually had no way to take a young man from Yuguo who had not yet reached the weak crown, so he let him go calmly as if he had entered a no-man's land.

It's a shame!

In Shen Yunpeng's opinion, in fact, the Queen Mother's punishment was still too light.

The Praetorian Guard, including him, the Commander, really have to be trained well!

It is precisely because of such an idea of hating iron and not becoming steel, and even more self-punishing, that in the past few days, Shen Yunpeng has really led the Praetorian Guards under his command honestly, and has carried out extremely strict, and can even be called extremely harsh drills.

Today, the commander is in the southern suburbs of the capital on relatively flat ground, commanding his Praetorian Guards to conduct a large-scale cavalry charge drill in front of the battle.

After the drums of the charge sounded, I saw those red-robed and gold-armored, heavily armed Praetorian Guards, shouting in unison, and rushing forward on a high slope on horseback.

For a while, thousands of horses rushed together, hooves roared, and people were boiling with blood!

But who knows, just when this group of men with bright armor and prancing horses and spears were about to reach the top of the slope, they suddenly found that at some point, there was a little girl in a red dress standing on it!

When the people in the front row saw this scene, they pulled the reins in their hands and tried their best to make the horses that straddled down to stop quickly.

But the people running behind didn't know what was happening in front of them, and they didn't have time to rein in their horses for a while, so they all rushed straight up.

As a result, naturally, it was a collision between the front and back. Although no one was injured and fell off the horse because of this, it also caused a lot of confusion between people shouting and neighing.

Shen Yunpeng was originally supervising the formation in the rear, and as soon as Fang found that the situation was wrong, he immediately rode his horse to chase after him.

When he crossed the crowd that had all stopped, and looked at the slope on the horse, he saw that the little girl in a red shirt who looked pink and cute was staring at him with a pair of big black and white eyes, looking at him curiously.

"You look so dark, you must be the black-faced reckless man that the cold ice boy said?"

When Shen Yunpeng heard this, the big face, which had been tanned a little darker than usual, suddenly darkened a little more.

"Where did you come from, little girl?

I didn't expect to be asked by him in such a rough voice, the little girl's big eyes blinked, and she actually fell into a string of tears.

"It seems that what Han Bing Gongzi said is not wrong, it must be you who snatched my young lady away from me! You are the bad guy who specializes in bullying weak women!"

Seeing that the tears in the eyes of this little girl kept falling down, but a small mouth was also "crackling" and constantly counting people, Shen Yunpeng knew that he was really unfavorable in his life, and he met a "weak woman" who couldn't be provoked.

Since he knew that he couldn't be provoked, he was still quick to see the opportunity, and hurriedly tried to pull the corners of his mouth to both sides, trying to make a pleasant appearance, and at the same time lowering his voice.

"Little girl, don't cry yet. Tell me, what's your name? I haven't robbed anyone's young lady. Which Ice Boy told you that?"

When asked the last sentence, the Lord Archon couldn't help but grit his teeth.

The little girl was also very obedient, and immediately stopped the tears that were still gushing like a spring, stared at the big wet eyes, and said, "My name is Cui'er, and I am the personal servant of Miss Xiangjun." The cold ice boy is my young lady's cousin. ”

Shen Yunpeng can be regarded as fully understood.

However, when he took a closer look at this little girl, who was only eleven or twelve years old, he couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "Cui'er, how did you come here alone at such a young age?"

Cui'er rolled her big bony eyes and replied crisply, "Who said I came alone?

Originally, we entered the city yesterday, but when we asked someone, they said that you, the commander, were not in the palace, but had been training outside the city.

Grandpa, he is old, and he has tossed all the way, but he can't walk anymore. That's why I left the city alone early in the morning and came to you. ”

"Looking for me?"

Shen Yunpeng couldn't help but be stunned, "Why are you looking for me?"

"Let you arrest me in the palace!"

Cui'er stared wide-eyed, looking like she took it for granted.

Shen Yunpeng's face darkened again.

"Why did I, ——, Commander, arrest you and enter the palace?!"

"At the beginning, the queen mother wanted my young lady to enter the palace, so she sent you to arrest her. Now the Queen Mother also wants me to enter the palace, so I will find you first and let you arrest you. ”

Cui'er was still staring wide-eyed, looking like she took it for granted.

Shen Yunpeng was suddenly speechless by her for a long time.

He couldn't help but stare at a pair of big bull's eyes, staring at this tricky little girl who looked innocent on the surface, but what she said was like a knife.

Seeing that he kept his face calm and didn't speak, Cui'er laughed with a "card" and said, "It turns out that you, the commander, really don't know! The Queen Mother has already promised the cold ice prince to let Cui'er enter the palace to accompany my young lady."

That's why Cui'er and her grandfather rushed all the way from home. Now, I have sent myself to you, which has saved you a lot of things!"

Listening to what this little girl said, she was reasonable, not like she was believing it, and Shen Yunpeng also believed it a little in his heart.

He looked down at the thin little Cui'er, his two thick eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly, and asked in a deep voice: "Are you really willing to enter the palace, this little girl? ”

"Anyway, Cui'er has to follow Miss all her life. If she has to stay in the palace for the rest of her life, then I will naturally not come out for the rest of my life. ”

When she said these words, Cui'er's little face looked extremely serious, although she still looked like a matter of course, it made Shen Yunpeng feel uncomfortable in her heart, and she really couldn't bear to listen to her anymore.

After a long silence, he threw off his horse in stirrups, strode up the slope, and knelt down in front of Cui'er.

Cui'er pursed her lips, smiled at him, and then stretched out a pair of thin arms, allowing the tall and mighty man to pick himself up.

Shen Yunpeng carefully put her on the horse, and then got on the horse himself.

He stretched out an iron arm to protect the petite Cui'er in the crook of his arm, and at the same time, with the other hand, shook the reins, and galloped in the direction of the new capital.
