Nian Nu shark

Another long rainstorm,

Zilu held an umbrella and stared quietly at the dark sky.The three green birds stood on Zilu's shoulders, looking curiously at the rainwater falling down the umbrella ribs.The crystal clear rain is continuous, forming a beautiful chain.

The three blue birds leaned over excitedly, trying to peck at the chain that attracted its attention, but they were caught off guard by being doused with water.It quickly shook its head, blowing all its feathers.

There was a sound of footsteps from far and near.

Zilu turned his head: "My lord."

Wu Shengyu walked to the place beside Zilu, followed his gaze, and asked with a smile, "Why, are you thinking about the sky again?"

Zilu smiled and didn't answer.

After the officials abandoned Chenghaimen, he asked Sanqing to bring his hand letter to Wu Shengyu, expressing his intention to submit to Chenghaimen on behalf of Chenghaimen, and hoped that the army would enter Chenghaimen peacefully and not harm innocent people. I am also willing to be used by Wu Shengyu, and I am sincerely loyal.

In the end, Wu Shengyu did not disappoint him.

"My lord, we still have a few days to reach the capital."

"That's right." Wu Shengyu nodded, with some doubts in his eyes, "It's just that, even though the faint king is obsessed with singing and dancing, we are already so close to the capital, why are they still not moving?"

Zilu nodded, and continued: "Not only that, our trip was really smooth, and we hardly encountered any obstacles."

After speaking, he looked thoughtful, thinking of the muddy water he saw along the way.

In such a place close to the capital, the water accumulated by the rainstorm is a bit too much, and some places even reach their knees, which brings inconvenience to their marching.As far as he knows, although the emperor is fatuous, he is indeed a master who attaches great importance to pleasure. This place is close to the outskirts of Kyoto. Didn't those officials make a statement?This is related to their vital interests.

Is there something wrong with the court?

Wu Shengyu's face was filled with determination: "No matter what, when we get there, everything will be clear."

Zilu nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, Zilu wants to go and have a look near the main road."

Wu Shengyu looked at him in surprise. Seeing the persistent expression on Zilu's face, his brows gradually frowned. He said in a deep voice, "Give me a reason. You should know the danger of the road."

Zilu insisted: "I have a conjecture that must be confirmed, and it concerns the capital and the imperial court."

Wu Shengyu was silent for a moment and said: "Let Sun Shang go with you, I am really worried about you being alone."

"But Sun Shang..."

"No problem." Wu Shengyu turned and left, leaving Zilu with a tall and straight back, "That guy has to get busy, so as not to always hold the yellow corner of his clothes and make an embarrassing expression."

Zilu still stood quietly in the rain.

"Chirp?" Sanqingniao tilted her head, looking at the gentle smile on her master's face in puzzlement.

Zilu shook his head and walked towards the barracks, with a warmer smile on his lips.

A whisper full of expectation gradually melted into the rain.

"It would be great if one day you and I become monarchs and ministers but can be regarded as confidants..."

……

...

"General Sun, I'm sorry." Zilu thanked the silent man walking beside him.

The man glanced at him and said in a muffled voice, "I'm just following Master Wu's order."

Zilu nodded to show he understood, and turned his head to look at the situation on the road from a distance, with a serious expression on his face.

There are only a few kinds of people who can walk the road of Daqi, one is a person with high position and authority, the other is a post horse of the court, the third is a military report, and the fourth is a person approved by the emperor.

But now it's so crowded, the cars and horses can't get through, and all kinds of people walk on it...

"General Sun, the situation has changed, I need to get closer."

Responding to Zilu, Sun Shang pulled the bamboo hat and coir raincoat to make his face and figure less noticeable.

Zilu's heart warmed, and he walked towards the main road quickly and secretly without any hesitation.

As they got closer, the pedestrian's hastily pale expression became clearer.

A withered hand stretched out and blocked Zilu's path: "Young man, is this your bird?"

The one who stopped Zilu was a rickety old man, who took a breath after saying a few words, as if he was about to die.On his arm with a cane rests a blue-green bird.

Zilu's pupils shrank: "Sanqing?!"

"Chirp!" The three blue birds responded cheerfully, and flew to his shoulder.

"Master of Sanqingniao..." The old man sighed with emotion, "I can still see the person chosen by Sanqingniao in my lifetime. I really live up to this worldly experience."

Zilu glanced at Sun Shang, suppressed his desire to ask San Qingniao, and asked politely: "The old man seems to have come from the capital, but he knows what happened? Why is everyone panicked?"

The old man paused, and there was a touch of pity in his eloquent voice: "A few days ago, it was the emperor's birthday banquet. His Majesty, together with all the ministers and dignitaries, held the birthday in Chengming Mountain Resort. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened, and the Chejiang River broke its embankment. Coupled with the recent torrential rain..."

Zi Lu and Sun Shang looked at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes.

The emperor is dead?

All the dignitaries and important ministers are also dead?

And is it because the mother river Chejiang that surrounds the back mountain of the Summer Resort broke its embankment and caused a flash flood?

Zilu felt that this was as unreal and full of absurdity as a dream.

Zilu said with difficulty: "It's hard for me to believe, after all, the embankment of the Chejiang River is one of the strongest places." How could it be said to collapse?

No, it is also possible.

Zilu's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly thought of something.

As far as he knew, these years the emperor was really obsessed with immortality and longevity, and he didn't care about political affairs, and secretly carried out a shocking corruption and bribery among his courtiers.Many things that should have been built with good materials were secretly replaced with worthless wood and stones. Even the Chengdu Customs where he was at the time were not free from the corruption that swept across the country.

Could it be that even the embankment of the Chejiang River...

Zilu exhaled slowly, gently tugged at Sun Shang's sleeve behind him, motioned him to regain his senses, and then thanked the old man, "Thank you for your information, old man, then I will take my leave and leave later. Let's take a look at Jing."

Just as Zilu was about to turn around, the old man said, "Three blue birds, the queen mother's messenger, always serve as messengers to convey happiness and auspiciousness."

Zi Lu paused.

The old man's eyes were full of emotion and some inexplicable meaning: "As the owner of Sanqingniao, you must be a very good young man."

"I'm old, and the chaos in this world should subside..." the old man sighed, walking further and further away.
