The boy left with the big bird in his arms, leaving only Wu Tsui and Xu Mingyi outside the car.
"Get in the car." Xu Mingyi looked at Wu tsugamu and whispered, "be careful all the way."
Wu Tsui nodded "good", but his feet did not move.
Then he said to her, "don't worry. When I return to Ningyang, I'll write to you to report peace. You should be careful in Linyuan."
"Well, I know," Xu Mingyi nodded.
Wu Tsung didn't speak any more, but he still didn't turn around. For a moment, he just stood there and looked at her.
What should be said seems to have been finished, and then it seems wordy, but it seems that there are still many things to say in the future.
Four eyes look at each other, the moon is cool and the wind is light.
Even if it has not been stated clearly, there is still reluctance and worry.
Looking at each other so silently, Xu Mingyi suddenly felt that his eyes were astringent and his nose was suddenly sour.
If she could, people she didn't care about were at risk. When she first returned to this life, she dreamed about how to become stronger and how to better protect the people around her.
But her strength alone is still too slim. It's unrealistic to support everything when she wants to be alone.
But then she began to feel at ease——
Because all this was not to be supported by her alone. She was surrounded by people who were capable, responsible and willing to trust her.
Like my grandfather, like Wu Tsung.
They are all powerful people with their own abilities, but the fetters and concerns between people will not be weakened.
So they looked at each other for a moment. Under the moonlight, the boy opened his arms.
She rushed forward and hugged him.
The young man's Raven blue fine silk robe is clean and soft, and has a slight coolness soaked by the moonlight, with his unique refreshing breath.
He hugged her, put his jaw gently against the top of her hair and said to her, "Zhaozhao, since my grandfather agreed with my aunt and Uncle Xu, then our marriage will be roughly settled..."
Although it was a positive tone, there was a young man's anxiety and temptation in his voice.
He was still a little afraid that she wouldn't agree.
Therefore, this sentence has some skills to "muddle through".
But in the face of his sweetheart, even his skills are clumsy. Those teenagers can't hide their thoughts and cautious temptations at all.
Xu Mingyi half buried his face in his shoulder. His voice was a little stuffy, but he didn't hesitate: "I think so, so you should take care of yourself. We still have a lot of things to do."
She never said such meaningless words as "who wants to talk to you about marriage" and "when did I promise to marry you". It's no secret that she wants to marry him.
"OK!" she clearly heard a heartbeat in the chest of the boy in her ear moving fast and powerful, and there was a smile in some fluctuating voices: "then you can take it as if I'm going to get the bride price -"
"OK." she raised her head from him, looked at him, bent her mouth, looked seriously and said, "Wu Tsui, I'll wait for you to hire."
The boy's face, which had never had much expression, was bright with a smile and showed a row of neat white teeth.
"Come on, don't delay." Xu Mingyi glanced at the direction of the carriage behind him and said.
Wu Tsung responded. Seeing the wind rising, she raised her hand and covered her with the hood behind the sandalwood cloak. She carefully tidied up the edges. Finally, she leaned slightly and pressed her cool thin lips gently on her forehead.
Then he got on the carriage and left.
Xu Mingyi didn't immediately turn back and quietly watched the carriage disappear into the night.
The wind suddenly grew stronger. She raised her hand and tightened her cloak, which seemed to have his breath on it.
But she had no tears at this time. She believed that the difference between now and now must be for a better gathering in the future.
The girl turned back to the door. The moon and stars were bright and the night was like a river.
……
The night in the capital, 800 miles away, suddenly became arrogant and noisy because of a torrential rain.
In the middle of the time, there were still many voices in the Fu division in the north town.
In the prison where the felon was detained, there was blood and rot in his nose. A man wearing the green robe of the arrest guard came out from his insiders. He took a cloth towel to wipe the blood on his fingers and scolded: "it's really bad luck. He hasn't tried anything yet, so he died..."
The subordinates around him then said, "don't be angry, adults. These things of Zixing sect are all hard bones. They can't find any useful clues... They're like endless flies. No one can move."
The man wiped his fingers, threw the cloth towel to his subordinates, straightened his sleeves and said, "the new commander makes adults appreciate me so much. I don't think if I can make any achievements, I can deserve the love of adults -"
The subordinate attentively agreed, but he secretly turned his lips in his heart.
What appreciation and love
To put it bluntly, he just fooled around with a hundred official positions.
Han Yan, the former commander of the arrest guard, was seriously injured on his way out of the city to hunt down the Duke of Zhenguo. After some treatment, it took seven or eight days, but he still didn't hold on.
As soon as Han Yan died, the arrest guard changed.
After the new Commander Wang Tong took over the arrest guard, he turned over a silent bloodbath and washed away the confidants left by Han Yan.
When someone comes down, someone wants to go up.
High or low.
The hundred families named Zhao Guo were lucky to squeeze into the boat.
As they spoke, they passed through a cell. In their ears were the moans of prisoners' pain, mostly decadent and powerless, as if they would never live.
"Zhao... Zhao Guo?"
A faint voice came into the Baihu's ear.
Zhao Guo stopped and looked at it subconsciously. In a cell on his side, the man crawling on the ground couldn't distinguish the color. At this time, he was struggling to look up at him. His dirty hair covered most of his face, revealing only a pair of vaguely familiar eyes.
Who is this?
Zhao Guo was a little curious. He bent slightly and looked down for a moment. Suddenly he smiled: "who should I be? It turned out to be brother Yue!"
"Yes... It's me!" seeing that he recognized himself, yuepei's eyes brightened. It seemed that he couldn't hear the sarcasm in the other party's tone, or that after many days of torture and several experiences that almost failed to hold his last breath, he had no time to take into account the so-called sarcasm and face.
Now he just wants to live!
Seeing him like this, Zhao was interested. He simply squatted down across the prison fence, looked at the other party's lower body full of blood, which was obviously unable to move, and could only crawl and drag. He seemed to "tut" with some pity: "... I was worried when I heard that my brother was involved in Xia Tingzhen's murder of the Duke of town. Now I see, my brother is really suffering."
He and yuepei grew up together when they were young, but from small to large, whether it was wrestling with strength when they were young or their future, the other side always had to put pressure on him.
Before that, he had been climbing for so many years, but he was still just a little detective guard without a name.
After the other party entered the Beijing camp, he easily got an official position of Qianzong.
Compared with those who are really high above, these little people are just ordinary people. If there is any hatred worth mentioning between them, they don't.
It's just not pleasing to the eye.
Of course, that was before.
Now he looks at each other and feels much more pleasing to the eye.
"But... Since brother Yue obeyed Xia Tingzhen's orders, the other party had already committed suicide. The case is over. Why was brother brought to this imperial prison?"
Look at this, it's clear that he has been severely punished again.
Yuepei lowered his head and gasped, as if he was accumulating strength. He didn't answer his question for a moment.
The subordinate on his side lowered his voice at the right time and said, "Zhao Baihu doesn't know. Although Xia Tingzhen is dead, he has taken a lot of bribes for personal gain. After integrating and comparing the stolen family property, nearly 200000 liang of silver is still missing..."
Two hundred thousand is not a small amount.
Especially now that there are frequent wars, which place doesn't use silver?
Therefore, the palace had previously issued a decree to trace the whereabouts of the 200000 liang of silver.
Yue Pei was not the only one who was secretly sent to the imperial prison, but those who were ordered by Xia Tingzhen and might know the clue were sent over.
Zhao Guo heard a low voice curse.
Two hundred thousand taels!
He can't think of the silver just by listening to it. He can't save it for ten years!
These rich officials are really damn!
No wonder everyone wants to climb up!
"Can you find out where it is?"
"Some eyebrows... It's probably hidden in several villages outside the city. It's being searched and dug these two days."
Zhao Guo's eyes moved: "who handled this?"
This is a very lucrative job. If you can
The subordinate vaguely guessed his intention, smiled and said, "it's Hu Qianhu..."
Zhao Guo frowned.
This is a wild goose plucking its hair. Its hands have always been tightly clenched. A drop of oil and water doesn't want to leak out. It's impossible to catch a copper coin with this person!
Inexplicably, Zhao Guo, who missed a lot of white money, looked at yuepei and lost his mind to fall into the well. He sneered and said, "since he already has eyebrows and eyes, it seems that he won't live in a few days. It's better to die, so he won't have to stay here and suffer this crime again."
Then he wanted to get up and leave.
However, one corner of the robe was tightly grasped by the hand sticking out of the prison fence.
"Wait..."
Yuepei pushed forward and moved his body again. His voice was dry and dumb, but he was eager: "I have something to say to you..."
"Why? There are still last words to explain?" Zhao Guo sneered, "no one is in your family. Who will listen to these last words?"
"No... it's very important..." Yue Pei shook his head and said, "come with your ears..."
Zhao Guo leaned over patiently.
The voice was as low as a wisp of weak wind with a fishy smell on the Bank of the river in summer. "I hid five hundred liang of silver in the unknown place earlier..."
Zhao Guo's eyes brightened immediately.
After staring at those red eyes for a moment, he raised his eyebrows slightly, turned his head and said, "go and watch elsewhere. I'll catch up with brother Yue."
"Yes."
The arrest guard was ordered to withdraw.
"Come on, what do you want me to do for you..." Zhao Guo asked directly.
He was not stupid enough to think that the friendship between the two was too shallow. The other party said this at this time to give him money for nothing.
"Other things are OK, but if you want me to get you out, I'm sorry I can't do it," he said ahead.
Although the Duke of the town has been rebelled, the charges of those who participated in the murder of the Duke of the town in the past are not so important, but yuepei is Xia Tingzhen's man——
Today, the bloody washing of Xia Tingzhen's party by the central government has not stopped.
He finally got the chance, just promoted to a hundred households, and barely entered the sight of the commander. There is still a future
In this case, he would be crazy to ask him to do such an adventure that would lose his head once it was found out.
Silver is tempting, but life can only be spent alive.
He is very sober. Yuepei can't be so whimsical.
Even though the two of them secretly went out of the imperial prison, what happened after that?
Not to mention the eyes and ears of the imperial court, now the Duke of the town has rebelled and martial law has been imposed everywhere. It's a dream to leave the capital
Just a little——
He is now half useless. His life and death are in the hands of others. If Zhao Guo takes him out of the imperial prison, takes the silver and kills him for the last disaster, he can only bear it!
It is impossible for him to make such a deal with the other party.
In particular, he is not really desperate
So——
"Of course not... I just want to ask you to deliver something for me. As long as it is delivered, I will truthfully tell you where the silver is buried when I hear back!"
Zhao Guo narrowed his eyes slightly: "what? To whom?"
When the voice fell, he saw that Yue Pei rolled over hard.
"Stab -"
He tore off a corner of the blood stained prison uniform.
Then he bit the belly of his index finger.
Zhao Guo stared at his action - is this to write a blood book?
However, the content of the blood book made him confused.
The other party took his finger and wrote a word "Pei" on it, and there was nothing else.
After writing, he tore the piece of linen in half, held it in his hand and handed it to Zhao Guo: "try to send it to the palace and give it to Princess Rong..."
Princess Rong?!
Zhao Guo was slightly surprised.
Yue Pei stayed in this dark place all day and knew almost nothing about the outside world. Although Zhao Guo was an arrest guard, his official position was low, and he didn't know what imperial concubine Rong did on that day in the imperial temple. At the emperor's instigation, the matter was still kept secret.
Even Rong's family only think of Rong Guifei. Now she is staying in Yongfu palace. She is worried and ill because of the captivity of the little prince. She is resting now.
"Do you want to ask Princess Rong to help?" Zhao Guo had doubts at the bottom of his heart: "why should Princess Rong save you?"
There was a chill in yuepei's eyes.
Please?
Oh, he's not begging her!
He waited so long and didn't see any intention of rescue from her... This stupid woman is much more cruel than he thought!
He was tortured and tortured alone this time, but she lived in Yongfu palace and enjoyed all her glory and wealth with peace of mind
In that case, he can only "save himself"!
Before and after this thing is sent to her, she'd better be more knowledgeable and try to get him out as soon as possible, otherwise... He will die and have to pull her on her back!
He's dying. There's no reason to keep the secret for her!
Die, everyone!
