[Rat cat] The legend of Lou Xiaochong

Chapter 35 Exploring the Palace

When Zhan Zhao came out of his room, it was already noon, with the bright sun shining in the sky, even though it was the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, it would not be bitingly cold.

Zhao Hu rubbed his hands and stomped his feet: "Guard Zhan, you have to hurry up! I just watched the kitchen chimney smoke, and guessed that Aunt Zhang would be able to boil the pot in a moment, you are late But I can’t grab the meat—oh, that’s right, why don’t I tell them not to grab it all and save some for you?”

"It doesn't matter." Zhan Zhao just smiled, "Business is important, after the adults give orders, it's hard to say whether Zhan will eat this meal or not."

Just kidding, at this moment, he is full of panic, how can he swallow half a grain of rice.

At the door of Master Bao's study, Zhan Zhao took a breath and knocked on the door.What he thought in his heart was: It would be best if there was a vicious Jiangyang thief who ran to the skyline and asked him to hunt him down. He would not have to come back after going there for a few months, and the wind in the frontier would refresh his mind.

After entering the door, Mr. Bao had a serious expression on his face. Mr. Gongsun put one hand on Mr. Bao's shoulder and straightened up, obviously he was still talking just now.Zhan Zhao approached and cupped his fists in a salute: "My lord summoned my subordinates, what orders do you have?"

Lord Bao frowned, and first waved his hands: "Guard Zhan doesn't need to be polite, just sit down and talk." Mr. Gongsun bypassed Zhan Zhao and walked towards the door, thinking he wanted to take evidence from the case again?

Zhan Zhao looked at Mr. Bao who was hesitant to speak, and his heart was pounding. Mr. Gongsun stopped at the door but stopped. Sit down, spread out a booklet and flip through it.

After staring for a long while, Mr. Bao finally cleared his throat and said, "Just now the Eighth Prince came to the mansion and chatted with the manor. He mentioned recent anecdotes in his words. He said that there were some rumors in the market, but he had something to do with Zhan Huwei. ..."

"Cough!" Suddenly Mr. Gongsun coughed heavily.Master Zhan Zhao and Master Bao both looked over.

Mr. Gongsun smiled reassuringly at Zhan Zhao, then turned his head and glared at Mr. Bao: I told you to be tactful!You have to talk about other things first, and slowly go around!It's definitely not Zhanwei's fault in this matter, what should you do if you say so bluntly that he is too worried!

Master Bao smiled wryly: Sir, you speak lightly!How can I say this to scare Zhan Wei?

The two of them cast eyes at each other here, Zhan Zhao had just had a scene with Bai Yutang just now, and there was a ghost in his heart, and he understood the meaning of the few words that Mr. Bao mentioned, and he didn't know it was just pretending Silly wait for Mr. Bao to explain, and ignore the matter completely, or simply pick up the conversation and admit that he knew about it-but in that case, either the adults and Mr. There was no reason for the rumors, or else, Bai Yutang had to be pushed out to prevent the disaster, but Zhan Zhao would never be able to do such things no matter how much he annoyed Bai Yutang to rashly come up with whimsical ideas.

Zhan Zhao was not good at pretending to be stupid, so he just sat there with his head buried.But Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun had expected him to be stunned for a while after hearing such a letter, so they didn't pay much attention to the questioning. They just comforted him with kind words and told him to be more cautious these days. Just take it as a gust of wind wrapped in sand; except that Chinchilla Bai Yutang's temper is not gentle, if you see him, you'd better persuade him not to be as knowledgeable as the common people.

After giving instructions for a while, Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun were talking between you and Mr. Gongsun, but it turned out that Mr. Gongsun talked a little more.Sending off the Zhan guards, Mr. Gongsun closed the door, turned his head and shook his head with a wry smile at Mr. Bao, just in time to meet the same helpless sighing face of the black-faced governor.

"Xi Ren——" Bao Zheng raised his head when he heard the sound, and his partner for many years, Mr. Chief Bookkeeper, slowly poured water from a copper pot. One bowl was [-]% full and two bowls were as high.After receiving the tea, Gongsun had already lifted the lid of the bowl and took a sip: "The children's affairs can only be dealt with at this point, and they will not be able to do anything in the future; It must be bad? The national law prohibits shameless indulgence and indulgence in lust. If you really like it, you just need to close the door, which one can understand a lot."

Bao Zheng didn't drink tea either, and said after a while: "... Thank you for your hard work."

"Hard work?" Mr. Gongsun drank his tea slowly, and looked over with a smile: "I don't remember how many times I said it all these years——you, who is a 'Master Bao' in front of people all day long, is it hard work?" ? If 'adults' don't work hard, how can 'students' have the reason to work hard alone?"

Even if you say this, you should always keep it in your heart.When Mr. Bao wanted to say something more, Mr. Gongsun put down the tea bowl: "That kid Zhanwei is good at everything, but he always gets confused when it's about him. I'm always worried here, so I still have to go and see him. "

Let's talk about Mr. Gongsun, he and Mr. Bao stayed here for a while, and when he went to look for Zhan Weiwei, there was no one there.Turning around, Zhan Zhao was not in his room, and he was not in the middle of the bustling group of food snatchers in the kitchen. When he stopped Wang Chao for questioning, Wang Chao put down his job bowl and saluted respectfully, pointing to the front yard: "Just now I saw Zhan's guards go around and go to Mr. Bao's side."

Going to Mr. Bao again?Mr. Gongsun shook his head and turned back.

Master Bao was in a daze in the study, staring at the four dishes and one soup that had just been delivered.Hearing the sound of the door, he raised his head and saw that it was Gongsun, and he let out a sigh of relief: "Something happened——"

"Could Feizhan protect him..."

"It's not Zhanwei," Mr. Bao waved his hand, "Zhanwei just came back to talk about something important, although it's just a few words, it's really shocking news."

As for Zhan Huwei himself, he has already taken Lord Bao's intention and went to investigate quietly.At such a time, find something for him to do, rather than leaving him alone to think wildly.

Of course, what Master Bao meant was not to tell him to go on errands without eating.It's not a sure thing yet, so it's not necessarily different if it's a moment sooner or later.It's just that Zhan Zhao himself was impatient, and left Master Bao's study, with the Juque sword in his hand, and went straight to the mansion where King Xiangyang stayed.

Naturally, the gate of this mansion is also royal, with a pair of majestic stone lions, divided into several teams of guards patrolling day and night.As soon as it quiets down here, there is a lively market not far away, and the shouts of killing chickens and buying wontons can be heard by chance.

If there is any difference between the place where Prince Xiangyang lives compared to other princes, it is that he treats people very kindly here, not to mention the small merchants who have gone the wrong way, but they are politely invited out of the alley so that they will not be questioned, it is Qian'er Beggars with girls, if the guards want to drive them away, they have to wait for the time when the prince can't see them, otherwise it will definitely be the fault of a "wealthy common people".

In this way, the first easy-to-reach prince's mansion in Bianliang, Tokyo, squatted above the gate of Baiyutang.Bai Yutang chose the position ingeniously, he was able to hide his body under the shadow of the plaque, and his qinggong and agility were first-rate, so he moved and dodged cleverly, and among the dozen or so guards walking back and forth in and out of the courtyard, none of them Saw him.

Others can't see him, but he sees everyone clearly.For example, at a distance of ten feet over there, a Master Yumao turned up.Tsk tsk, here I am, and he is here, the people below are silent, it can be seen that the palace of this majestic prince is not as heavily guarded as the yamen of Kaifeng mansion.

Bai Yutang caught sight of the blue shadow flipping over there, and Zhan Zhao walked all the way to the east.He secretly figured out where to guess the cat's whereabouts, and he also dodged out, taking a moment to turn to the West Road.

What is there in the mansion where the prince of Xiangyang came to Beijing to rest by accident?There are some trees with no leaves, some soldiers patrolling on fallen leaves and snow, some old servants who sweep and sweep the leaves along with the snow slowly, and some maids frolicking in the backyard. The little prince who was having fun running and rolling in the snow.

Zhan Zhao sneaked over, seeing all of these things, the most important thing was naturally the King of Xiangyang himself - he chose a place above the main house and gently uncovered the roof tiles. He somehow thought of Bai Yutang, who was eavesdropping on spies. That white mouse is the best at deeds, but it would be nice to have his help at this moment... Heh, what are you thinking.Zhan Zhao shook his head, bent down to listen.

The shadow on the window pane was pretty good, and the King of Xiangyang was indeed talking with someone. Hearing the voice, it was a general in the court.Zhan Zhao frowned, and was about to listen to what they had to say, when he suddenly felt a person falling beside him.

Bai Yutang.

It's okay——Zhan Zhao subconsciously let out a sigh of relief, only to realize the embarrassment at this moment.

Bai Yutang was expressionless, just stuffed a stack of papers to him in silence, and gestured for him to go back first before discussing in detail, so he took the lead and left with Qinggong.

Zhan Zhao clenched his fist, and after hearing a few words, they were all greetings, nothing worth paying attention to. When he was about to listen again, there was a sound of kicking and tapping, and a large group of inspectors turned around. He thought about it and shouldn't be rash , It is also the first to go back and make plans.

After leaving the prince's mansion, Zhan Zhao walked down two alleys before he breathed a sigh of relief and rested on the ground - facing him, Bai Yutang was leaning against the corner of the wall again, waiting for him with his arms folded.

"Thank you just now." Zhan Zhao hesitated for a moment, but thanked him first. After all, this guy came to help, "This matter is a bit dangerous, and it seems that Zhan has a public position and can justify it. Brother Bai, if you..."

"Fifth Master said that I will finish the previous work for you. It's just fulfilling the promise. You don't have to take it too seriously. Also," Bai Yutang shrugged, and suddenly smiled, "I said it earlier, don't worry about it." Called 'Brother Bai'."
