Chapter Twenty-Eight: Rivalry Gathering
At this time, Chu Rou was pregnant with the last wisp of blood of the Yun family, and the old housekeeper Yun An served carefully, for fear of any accidents, and could not explain to the lord and young master under Jiuquan, since Chu Rou insisted on going to Gale City, Yun An had to hire a carriage in Beijing, let Chu Rouan sit in the car, and the old housekeeper Yun An personally drove all the way to Gale City.
When Yun'an and the two of them arrived at Gale Wind City, they only saw countless people repairing the walls of Gale Wind City under the scorching sun, although there were still broken houses and broken tiles everywhere in Gale Wind City, but there was not even a single corpse of the defenders, not a trace of blood was left, if it were not for the dilapidation of Gale Wind City at this time, it would be difficult to see that this city had been bloodied by the grassland people, and tens of thousands of people were slaughtered! Originally from the grassland retreat, Zhu Gan, the current lord of the West Wind Shengwu Emperor, immediately requisitioned tens of thousands of people to clean up the ruined city and rush to repair the Gale City Guard, Zhu Gan must rebuild the Gale Pass before the grassland invades the west wind again!
The old housekeeper Yun An had to ask the soldiers of the envoy about the situation of the defenders of Gale Wind City that day, those soldiers had seen a lot of people who came to find the dead and pay tribute to their dead relatives in the past few days, so they did not hide it According to the truth, it turned out that it was a hot summer at this time, the weather was unbearable, and the corpse was parked for a day and there was a peculiar smell, so no one could identify the body, and in order to repair the remnant of Gale City, the remains of the soldiers and civilians who were killed in Gale City that day were all gathered together and buried at the foot of Yuncui Mountain, not far southwest of Gale City.
Asked in detail about the location of the military cemetery, the old housekeeper took the young lady Chu Rou and drove to the foot of Yuncui Mountain in the southwest of Gale City, far away from the old housekeeper Yun An saw a tall mound standing at the foot of a high peak, and when he got closer, he saw that there were many people burning paper and crying in front of the mound, Yun An'an knew that this must be the grave of the defenders of Gale City, stopped the carriage, Yun An trembled and lifted the curtain, Chu Rou, who was full of tears, put down the carriage with a skirt full of tears, and looked at the huge tomb like a barren hill in front of him, Chu Rou was sad and dazed in his heart, could it be that his husband Yun Feiyu was really buried in this grave of 10,000 people!
Although Chu Rou didn't want to believe that Yun Feiyu was no longer alive, but looking at the huge tomb in front of him, Chu Rou's heart was still colic, and the weeping of the people around him who were mourning his relatives continued to reach Chu Rou's ears, which added to the sorrow in his heart, coupled with the fatigue of being unable to sleep for many days, Chu Rou could no longer bear it, and his mind was suddenly confused, and he suddenly ran to the giant tomb like crazy, digging the soil with both hands, and screamed in his mouth: "Feiyu, you are not here, are you! You must still be alive! Feiyu, where are you? You answer Rou'er!" The old housekeeper Yun An had tears on his face, and he just chased after him, crying beside him and was helpless, so he had to persuade with a sad voice: "Young lady, the young master must not bear to see the young lady like this in the spirit of heaven, please get up!"
The people saw the delicate young woman dressed in white in front of them as if they were crazy, and everyone felt the same sadness, many old women who had lost their children, and their widows and widows cried louder, and one of the kind old women came forward to support Chu Rou, and said comfortingly: "This lady, please mourn!
With a great sorrow in her heart, Chu Rou turned around and buried her head in the arms of the kind old woman she didn't know, crying loudly, the old woman had tears in the corners of her eyes, and patted Chu Rou on the back, "Cry, it will be better to cry!" Thinking of the two generations of masters who sacrificed their lives for the country, leaving only the widows of the two ladies, the old housekeeper Yun An stood next to him and cried.
Everyone was mourning and weeping to mourn the dead, and suddenly a shout came from afar, and then a group of cavalry escorted two luxurious carriages towards the huge tomb, not far from the military tomb, the cavalry in front of them dismounted, and proudly shouted in unison: "His Royal Highness the King of You has been ordered to pay tribute to the martyrs of Gale City, you idle people and others should not hurry up and get out of the way!" Saying that many soldiers began to push the people who knelt in front of them and wept, although these people were in great grief, they did not dare to offend the authority of the officials, so they had to get up with tears and sorrow to give way, and so on to drive the people away, those soldiers quickly divided into two columns, stood on the left and right sides of the road, knelt on one leg, and shouted in unison: "Welcome to the prince!", the two carriages stopped, and the current brocade curtain was lifted, and a pair of thin and tall people in Tsing Yi jumped down from the car, and the people who peeked couldn't help but wonder: "Why are there two of these princes?" It looks so weird!"
The two Tsing Yi people are exactly the same, they are all thin and long faces, thin eyebrows and long eyes, and the faces of the two are blue and white, just like a sick man who has not recovered for a long time, as if he felt the strange eyes of everyone, the two Tsing Yi people suddenly opened their eyes, swept down, and the four cold lights shocked the people to lower their heads and dare not look again, after looking around, the two Tsing Yi people whispered to the people in the car: "Lord Wang, everything is normal, please move!" , The person in the car hummed proudly, stretched out a huge fat right hand to grab the right frame of the carriage door, bent out of the carriage, and the fat body stood on the front frame of the carriage, as if he had just woken up from sleep, the man stretched out his hands, sighed in his mouth, and muttered: "It turns out that it has arrived, Liu Fu, and he has not yet set up a stool!"
A guard next to him hurriedly bent his head to the right side of the carriage, on all fours, kneeling on the ground, and the king stepped on the back of the guard and stepped off the carriage, although the king of You's fat body pressed the guard with cracked teeth, but when the guard got up, his face was full of sneer, and he didn't dare to complain! The king didn't look at the guard, looked at the people around him with a pair of worried eyes, and snorted proudly: "Why are there so many idle people? Didn't this king tell you to get rid of the idle people?"
Liu Fu, the personal guard who served as a human stool, hurriedly whispered: "Back to the prince, the emperor has decreed that no one can stop the people from worshipping, so his subordinates dare not drive them all away!"
"Hmph, Brother Huang, he is really eventful, such a hot day, I have to worship this group of lonely souls and wild ghosts on his behalf, it's just that I don't hurry up to prepare the incense case, and return home after worshipping quickly, this ghost weather is really going to be hot to death!"
His subordinates hurriedly moved down the incense case and candles from the back carriage, set up the incense case in front of the giant tomb, placed the incense and candle tributes, and laid the yellow felt in front of the incense case, and put the brocade group on the yellow felt, and when everything was ready, the personal guard Liu Fu ran to the king of You, and replied: "Prince, we are all ready together, just wait for the prince to worship!"
Snorting, Youwang walked towards the incense case with his hand, and when he arrived in front of the case, he raised his feet and stood on the brocade, Youwang stretched out his right hand, and a guard next to him hurriedly handed the lit incense to Youwang, holding the incense, Youwang reluctantly bent his fat body down, bowed three times, and said with words in his mouth: "This king is ordered to worship all the heroic spirits on behalf of the saint, I hope you will bless me with the peace of the west wind country and the people, and there will be no more military affairs in the four realms!" After reciting, Youwang inserted incense into the incense burner on the incense table, turned around and was about to leave, just when he turned around, Youwang suddenly saw Chu Rou in filial piety clothes in the crowd, his eyes suddenly widened, like a hound dog that saw his prey, Youwang's eyes showed greed, and he beckoned, and Liu Fu, the guard next to him, immediately trotted to Youwang and said, "Lord, what do you command?"
His eyes showed a lewd light, and the king of Youwang pointed to Chu Rou leaning on the arms of an old woman with his hand, Liu Fushun looked at it, and saw that a young woman in the crowd was as beautiful as a flower, and her plain white filial piety clothes were even more charming and pitiful, and her face was full of tears like pear flowers with rain, which was really a rare beauty in her life! Liu Fu, who was familiar with the temperament of this Youwang, still didn't know a few of the prince's flower intestines, but this was not Youjun, and it was on this occasion, Liu Fu had no courage to rob the people in public, Liu Fu had to whisper: " Lord Wang, look at her dress, she is also the widow of the family of the heroic martyrs of Gale City in this tomb, this, this is not very suitable!"
"Smack!", King You suddenly slapped Liu Fu with a big mouth, and said angrily: "This king just thought that she was the widow of a martyr, so he intended to take care of her, and you dog slave still dare to spoil this king's interest!"
Liu Fu covered his cheeks and knelt down and said, "The villain doesn't dare, the villain will go to handle this matter for the prince!"
Hurriedly getting up from the ground, Liu Fu turned around and came to Chu Rou with a crooked eyebrow, "Where are you from?"
I had long noticed the greed in the eyes of the fat pig-like Youwang, and the kind old woman was busy protecting Chu Rou behind her, but after all, the old woman was an ordinary person, and was asked by Liu Fu with a slanted eyebrow, the old woman was nervous and didn't know how to answer, Yun An next to her was full of wind and rain, and stepped forward at the moment, shouting: "It's your turn to inquire about the affairs of my young lady! Don't hurry away!"
Although Yun An is a servant of Yunfu, but he was the captain of Yunluo's personal guard back then, and he fought countless battles with Yunluo, although he is now old and retired as a domestic servant, he looks honest and harmless on weekdays, and now he is suddenly angry, but he still has the power of the old times, but Liu Fu's face changed color and regressed, Yun An looked down on this kind of bullying evil slave the most, and snorted coldly at the moment, protecting Chu Rou and the old woman, and looked at Liu Fu with disdain.
Where can Liu Fu, who has always been used to bullying people, stand this, roll up his sleeves, Liu Fu is about to push Yun'an, and said: "You old guy, do you know what the fate of offending our prince is?"
Yun An's face was full of disdain, his body was slightly sideways, avoiding Liu Fu's push, taking advantage of the situation, and gently pushing Liu Fu's back with his hand, and suddenly Liu Fu fell and gnawed on, "Your lord? Even the king of heaven can't be rude to my young lady!"
Liu Fu, who got up from the ground, was annoyed and ashamed, stretched out his hand and pulled out his waist knife, and said fiercely: "Old immortal, it seems that I won't give you some color to see, you really don't know how thick the sky is!" The onlookers saw that the soldier drew his blade, and scattered in shock, but everyone did not disperse, just onlookers, and many people with grievances looked at Liu Fu angrily, seeing that he provoked the anger of the public, Liu Fu did not dare to be ruthless for a while, but just took the waist knife to make a sample.
Seeing that Liu Fu was going to make a big fuss, King Youwang was quite worried, and scolded secretly in his heart: "This idiot, he didn't do things cleanly at one time!" Intentionally summoned Liu Fu back, but in his heart he really coveted the posture of the young woman in filial piety, the king of you thought that he had seen a lot of stunning colors in his life, but the young woman in front of him was absolutely one in ten thousand, if he missed it today, the king of you felt that he would regret it for a lifetime, and looked at the audience Everyone dared to be angry and dare not speak, the king of you pouted, and he was about to order all the guards to go over and rob the young woman, but before the king of you spoke, the young woman in filial piety said in an extremely cold voice: "Zhu Xing, you dare to let your subordinates be so rude, you still have to fight and can't fight!"
Youwang Zhu Xing was taken aback, how did this woman know the name of this king, could it be that she and this king are old acquaintances? Let the guards separate the people, Youwang Zhu Xing came to Yun'an under the personal escort of the two Tsing Yi guards, carefully looked at Chu Rou who was dressed in filial piety, and thought hard for a long time in his mind, Youwang suddenly shook his head, pointed with his hand and exclaimed: "You are Chu Rou! You, why are you here!"
It turned out that King You was Zhu Xing, the son of the Nine Emperors who had been beaten by Yun Feiyu and Chu Rou, since his brother Zhu Gan, a fellow mother, succeeded to the throne as the emperor, although he had no talent and no virtue, Zhu Xing also became a prince and was named King You, since becoming a prince, Zhu Xing is even more lawless, bullying men and women and doing all kinds of evil, and he never forgets the humiliation that Yun Feiyu and Chu Rou humiliated him at the beginning, and is bent on revenge, I didn't expect to meet Chu Rou here today, King You was shocked at first, and then he was happy, and said secretly in his heart:" The sky has eyes, and today there are Zhou brothers to help me, and this king will definitely repay the hatred of that day!"
