Reverse Junhou

Chapter 67 The tallest building [3]

The man in black confronted Wen Xuechao silently in the tent for a long time.

When the noise outside the tent faded away, he tore off the black veil covering his face.

The light gray eyes are long and narrow and indifferent, the bridge of the nose is high and the facial features are deep, not the appearance of the Central Plains people.

Wen Xuechao spoke first: "You are from the Yanqu Department."

The man in black showed no expression on his face, he just put away the short blade in his hand: "Master Wen, I have no intention of hurting you."

The Central Plains dialect spoken by the man in black was very jerky, and his pitch was not standard.He squinted his eyes and looked around the tents to make sure that there was no one around, before continuing: "I'm Xiawei Liu, I'm here to find out about your lord by order of the king."

Wen Xuechao leaned on the wooden pole in the tent, looked at the person in front of him coldly: "What?"

"You and your king almost caused me to die in prison, and you want me to invite distinguished guests to sit?"

The man in black wears Yuchi's clan surname. This person is either a Jingwei from the Yanqu tribe, or a dead soldier who was raised by Yuchi Jingda.

Wei Liu was not angered by Wen Xuechao's sarcasm, but shook his head and said dryly: "The king never thought of killing Lord Wen, if the emperor of the Central Plains really wanted to kill him, the king would also try to kill him." Save the adults."

"It's thanks to all of you who have taken care of Wen to get where he is now." Wen Xuechao couldn't help laughing.

"The king has already sent people to investigate your family background. Your biological mother didn't die of a sudden illness, but—"

"It was killed by my biological father." Wen Xuechao said, "Do you still want to tell me that Yu Chijing has searched my past and found that in this vast Central Plains, there is really no one like me?" A person with ill-fated fate and a miserable life experience?"

Wei Liu was silent for a while, and asked, "Does Lord Wen hate the court?"

He stared at Wen Xuechao, who was silent with downcast eyes.As long as he is a mature person, after going through all kinds of things, who can say that he doesn't hate him?

There was a thick stack of Wang's cases, all of which were half of Wen Xuechao's affairs.This person was born in a Zanying family, and his biological mother's natal family was a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River, but he was deliberately murdered by his biological father, and lost his mother since childhood.Accompanying the crown prince in the palace for more than ten years, he was a high-ranking official, but he was abandoned by his family and the crown prince because of trumped-up charges.He defended the city alone to meet the enemy, but was regarded as a traitor by the court and thrown into death row.After working so hard for Da Fu for so many years, he finally ended up being executed and exiled in northern Xinjiang.

Wang once pointed to the black and white writing under the lamp and candle, and said to him: "Ah Liu, every word in Wen Ji's life is blood."

He respected the heart of this Central Plains civil servant from the bottom of his heart, so he understood why Wang wanted to take this person under his command.

The candlelight in the tent was flickering, and Wei Liu heard Wen Xuechao say calmly, "Of course I hate it."

"But now that Mingjun is here, and the Central Plains will be revived, the way of heaven will not favor your king." Wen Xue said calmly, "Just relying on Yuchi Jing, do you still want to get His Majesty's idea?"

Wei Liu choked for a moment, unable to speak for a long time.If it is an ordinary person, I am afraid that you need to weigh it before opening your mouth.But he knew that Wen Xuechao was not afraid of death, not only was he not afraid, but he even hit the sharp edge of the knife.

He saw the determined look in Wen Xuechao's eyes, it seemed that this person already knew that he would not dare to touch him easily.

Wen Xue stepped forward and opened the small curtain in front of the tent, as if to see off the guests.

Wei Liu was not in a hurry either, he took a deep look at Wen Xue, got up and walked out of the tent.

"Master Wen, we will live a long life in Japan," he said.

Wang sent him to sneak into the pass this time, and had no intention of persuading Wen Xuechao.Wang has something to do, and he wants him to test Wen Xuechao first.

And he has achieved the purpose of this trip.

*****

For three consecutive days, the battalion commander did not arrange to go to work again, and the handymen in the large tent in the western suburbs lived a clean life for a few days.

Yu Ming wanted to take some time to visit Lingfu Town.The battalion commander knew that his son was very naughty, so he called Shang Wang Wu and his cousin to follow Yu Ming into the city.Wang Wu is a slave, so he can't walk around the city at will for no reason.The battalion commander handed Wang Wu a few volumes of construction records, and asked him to accompany Yu Ming to the Lingfu Military Office after shopping.If you are interrogated by someone on the road, you can also excuse that you entered the city on business.

Yu Ming heard that his father had allowed his master to enter the city with him, so he danced and danced for a long time.He came to the tent early in the morning, waiting for his master and Brother Lan to get up.

Brother Lan found a bamboo hat with gauze somewhere, turned around and put it on for his master.Yu Ming was a little puzzled, but Brother Lan hugged his neck: "My brother has been sick since he was a child, and he can't get sunlight."

It dawned on him.No wonder the master seldom pays out accounts during the day, and even walks around people when he sees them on weekdays.

Yu Ming felt a little guilty, and was about to persuade his master not to go out, but he heard his master smile lightly: "Let's go."

The two teenagers followed behind the master and went out happily.

Lingfu City belongs to Qingxi County and is an important border town adjacent to Pingcheng Pass.There are many trade exchanges in the city, and the market is even more mixed with fish and dragons, and there are everyone.Many merchants from Northern Xinjiang and the Western Regions applied for business orders from the Duhu Mansion and entered Lingfu City to do business.

Yu Ming grew up in Lingfu since he was a child, and he knows everything about the novelties circulating in the market.He saw Brother Lan stretching his neck all the way, with a curious expression on his face, so he took the two of them to the market together.Although he couldn't see the expression on the Master's face clearly, Yu Ming could still feel the faint smile hidden under the veil of the Master.Every time he passed a shop, he pointed to the things on the stall and introduced them to his master one by one.The master was quite patient, holding the objects handed over by Yu Ming, and asking curious questions from time to time.

Yu Ming followed the master to a shop selling porcelain sculptures. The master was picking up a gold-encrusted camel for a closer look, when the man standing aside stretched out his hand to take it.

The man was wearing a ruffled robe from the Western Regions, and said, "Young master has good eyesight. This is Daqin's camel gold bottle, which can be regarded as valuable in the Central Plains."

Yu Ming saw the Master's figure paused slightly, and after a long time, he slowly said: "Your Excellency is proficient in this."

Yu Chijing lowered his voice, and said with a light smile, "Master Wen is also very happy, and he still has the leisure to accompany the child out for a stroll."

Wen Xue turned her back to block Yu Ming's sight: "It's not as bold as King Gu Li, who dared to break into the pass alone."

Yu Chijing sighed: "Your Excellency has praised you absurdly, this king only does things that are perfect."

Wen Xue took a step back without a trace, and looked around, only to find that the merchants setting up stalls in front of him, the grooms parked at the corner, and the waiter in the opposite inn were all looking at their direction from time to time.

This huge market is full of people from Yuchijing.

Yu Ming and Wen Lan still didn't know it, squatting aside and watching the wooden bird with great enthusiasm.Wen Xuechao couldn't figure out Yu Chijing's plan for a while.Not far from the market is the military office of the Zhenbei Army stationed in Lingfu City. Yu Chijing took so much pains to sneak into the pass, if he really arrested people in public, once the Zhenbei Army was alarmed, no matter how many troops he brought with him, it would be too late. It's hard to fly with wings.

He is very clear in his heart.Even if he once held a high position and held the power of the court, it was not worth King Guli's such a big fight.

Unless Yu Chijing's trip has ulterior motives.

Wen Xuechao thought of Wei Liu's knowing expression when he was about to leave, and a thought suddenly popped up in his mind——

There was a sudden noise at the gate of the market, and the sound of horseshoes came from a distance.A group of cavalry dressed in the style of Zhenbeifu was rushing towards the market.

Although Yu Chijing had made careful arrangements, he was acting on the territory of Zhenbei Mansion after all.The troops of the Zhenbei Army in Lingfu City had discovered something strange earlier, and now they found clues in the market, so they naturally came here after hearing the news.

Wen Xuechao saw the Zhenbei soldiers and horses not far away, and suddenly had an idea.He shook the booklet in his hand to the ground, and said loudly: "Someone has come to rob the army construction booklet!"

Sure enough, when the men and horses of Zhenbei Army heard the noise here, they immediately turned their horses' heads and galloped towards the direction where Wen Xuechao was standing.

A strange light flashed in Yuchi Jing's eyes.His first reaction was not to fight or get away, but he pulled Wen Xuechao's skirt and forced him into his arms.

Yu Ming didn't know what happened, so he froze in place for a moment, but Wen Lan was the first to react, pulled Yu Ming back, and shouted to the cavalry at the end of the long road: "There are barbarians here!"

The bazaar was in a mess for a moment.

Wen Xuechao desperately tried to break free, but Yu Chijing covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve.A vague fragrance overflowed from Yu Chijing's sleeve into Wen Xuechao's nostrils.He couldn't breathe for a moment, and coughed uncontrollably.

The thought that just came to mind has come true.

Yu Chijing entered the customs in person, not to arrest people, but to give him incense.

The person who applies the incense needs to personally contact the middle incense, so that the fragrance of the soul can be effective.In other words, if Yu Chijing wanted to give himself incense, he had to create an opportunity for the two of them to be alone.

He might have just wanted to send everyone away to give incense to himself alone, but the Beibei Army came in time and there was no time left, so he could only restrain himself so roughly and directly.

"The first time this king saw you was not at the Guangyang City Tower." Yu Chijing said quickly in Wen Xue's ear.

The men and horses of Zhenbei Army are close at hand.Yuchi Jing let go of Wen Xuechao's body, pulled out the long knife in his arms, and directed Yanqu's men to retreat.

The soldiers of the Zhenbei Army got off their horses and began to raise their swords to intercept the fleeing Hu people.Swords and swords are everywhere in sight, hawkers are running around in the market, unable to distinguish merchants from the Western Regions from the Yanqu tribe, the scene is chaotic for a while.

A few days ago Yu Chijing asked Wei Liu to come to the Central Plains to find out something.

He wanted to investigate the entanglement between Zhao Fengci and Wen Xuechao.

Wei Liu reported that the relationship between Mr. Wen and Dafu's emperor is indeed extraordinary.

"Based on Yu Chi's view, you still want to get His Majesty's idea?" Wen Xuechao said to Wei Liu.

Yuchi's eyes were bloodshot, he turned his head and glanced at Wen Xue, who was surrounded by the Zhenbei Army.Under the cover of everyone, he turned over and jumped over the high wall of the market.

The Zhenbei garrison captured many Yanqu tribesmen pretending to be merchants, but most of them killed themselves by biting poison when they were just caught.

Ling Fu Middle School Nursing Captain walked into the market with a dark face.Most of the Hu people who were captured alive died in an instant, and he still didn't know how to deal with the commander-in-chief.

He glanced at the two trembling teenagers in the corner, then turned to look at the young man sitting on the ground.It is said that it was precisely because of this man's yelling that the Zhenbei Army found the traces of the Hu people.The lieutenant of the middle guard picked up the books scattered all over the floor, opened them and flipped through them casually, and found that they were all books from the tents in the western suburbs.

The young man on the ground was wearing a bamboo hat, his chest heaved unceasingly, it seemed that his condition was not very good.The captain leaned down and asked, "Your Excellency is from the western suburbs, why did you get robbed?"

Hearing the words of the lieutenant in the middle guard, the man seemed to have slowly regained his senses.He put his hands on the ground, trying to stand up.The sleeves were rolled up slightly, revealing a white wrist.

The lieutenant's gaze was fixed on the jade bracelet on his wrist, his breathing stopped suddenly, and he almost didn't cry out.
